The **rtla osnoise** tool is an interface for the *osnoise* tracer. The
*osnoise* tracer dispatches a kernel thread per-cpu. These threads read the
time in a loop while with preemption, softirq and IRQs enabled, thus
allowing all the sources of operating systme noise during its execution.
The *osnoise*'s tracer threads take note of the delta between each time
read, along with an interference counter of all sources of interference.
At the end of each period, the *osnoise* tracer displays a summary of
the results.

SYNOPSIS
========
**rtla osnoise** [*MODE*] ...
DESCRIPTION
===========
.. include:: common_osnoise_description.rst
The *osnoise* tracer outputs information in two ways. It periodically prints
a summary of the noise of the operating system, including the counters of
the occurrence of the source of interference. It also provides information
for each noise via the **osnoise:** tracepoints. The **rtla osnoise top**
mode displays information about the periodic summary from the *osnoise* tracer.
The **rtla osnoise hist** mode displays information about the noise using
the **osnoise:** tracepoints. For further details, please refer to the
respective man page.
MODES
=====
**top**
Prints the summary from osnoise tracer.
**hist**
Prints a histogram of osnoise samples.
If no MODE is given, the top mode is called, passing the arguments.
OPTIONS
=======
**-h**, **--help**
Display the help text.
For other options, see the man page for the corresponding mode.
