In hindsight I'm still surprised that cyclictest became a defacto standard for benchmarking preempt-rt, but on the technical side it's quite clear as it tests the whole chain: interrupt -> wakeup -> scheduler -> userspace. I never expected that cyclictest might ship with distros and I'm very grateful to all the people who contributed and helped to bring it and the whole rt-tests package into shape. I know that I'm a lousy user space programmer :) @Clark, thanks for taking over. It takes away my permanent guilty conscience of not caring about rt-tests enough. @all, please support Clark with his new project as you supported me. Thanks for all the support and help again ! Thanks, tglx P.S.: If you really need to add autocrap^H^H^H^Htools please do it in a way so I still can hack on it :)
