rtla osnoise and timerlat are causing a segmentation fault when running
with the --trace option on a kernel that does not support multiple
instances. For example:
[root@f34 rtla]# rtla osnoise top -t
failed to enable the tracer osnoise
Could not enable osnoiser tracer for tracing
Failed to enable the trace instance
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This error happens because the exit code of the tools is trying
to destroy the trace instance that failed to be created.
Make osnoise_destroy_tool() aware of possible NULL osnoise_tool *,
and do not attempt to destroy it. This also simplifies the exit code.

RTLA: Real-Time Linux Analysis tools The rtla is a meta-tool that includes a set of commands that aims to analyze the real-time properties of Linux. But, instead of testing Linux as a black box, rtla leverages kernel tracing capabilities to provide precise information about the properties and root causes of unexpected results. Installing RTLA RTLA depends on some libraries and tools. More precisely, it depends on the following libraries: - libtracefs - libtraceevent - procps It also depends on python3-docutils to compile man pages. For development, we suggest the following steps for compiling rtla: $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtraceevent.git $ cd libtraceevent/ $ make $ sudo make install $ cd .. $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git $ cd libtracefs/ $ make $ sudo make install $ cd .. $ cd $rtla_src $ make $ sudo make install For further information, please refer to the rtla man page.
