# This is a sample code about how to use timerlat's timer by any workload
# so rtla can measure and provide auto-analysis for the overall latency (IOW
# the response time) for a task.
#
# Before running it, you need to dispatch timerlat with -U option in a terminal.
# Then # run this script pinned to a CPU on another terminal. For example:
#
# timerlat_load.py 1 -p 95
#
# The "Timerlat IRQ" is the IRQ latency, The thread latency is the latency
# for the python process to get the CPU. The Ret from user Timer Latency is
# the overall latency. In other words, it is the response time for that
# activation.
#
# This is just an example, the load is reading 20MB of data from /dev/full
# It is in python because it is easy to read :-)
