8# The script measures interrupt latency together with different types of
9# system load. This is done using the programs cyclictest and stress.
10#
11# The main output is:
12#
13# Best case (min) latency
14# This has very limited value, but is presented since it can be done
15# easily
16#
17# Average latency
18# This value is of interrest for throughput oriented systems. Limited
19# value for a real-time system. Also presented because it is easy to do.
20#
21# Worst case (max) latency
22# This is the interesting number for a real-time system. The number
23# presented is (of cource) the largest number observed. The challenge
24# is to know how the observed worst case relates to the actual worst case.
25#
26# To get an indication of the confidence, the following method is used:
27# 1) Instead of one long run, the measurement is made as a set of shorter
28# runs. The number of runs must be a power of 2 for reasons that will
29# shorlty be obvious
30#
31# 2) First, a list of the max values are created.
32#
33# 3) The smallest value in that list is recorded.
34#
35# 4) Then a new list is create by taking the max value of each pair of
36# values in the original list. In this list the smallest value is
37# recorded.
38#
39# 5) Step 3 is repeated until there is only one value in the list. See
40# example below:
41#
42# Samples:
43# | 44 | | | | |
44# | 77 | 77 | | | |
45# | 118 | | | | |
46# | 119 | 119 | 119 | | |
47# | 138 | | | | |
48# | 57 | 138 | | | |
49# | 175 | | | | |
50# | 130 | 175 | 175 | 175 | |
51# | 54 | | | | |
52# | 150 | 150 | | | |
53# | 47 | | | | |
54# | 59 | 59 | 150 | | |
55# | 199 | | | | |
56# | 115 | 199 | | | |
57# | 177 | | | | |
58# | 129 | 177 | 199 | 199 | 199 |
59#
60# Smallest value:
61# | 44 | 59 | 119 | 175 | 199 |
62#
63# 6) The generated list of smallest values is analyzed. In this case, it
64# can be observed that the values are increasing significantly through
65# the entire list, which leads to the conclusion that the number of
66# samples is too small.
67# If instead the list had been (167, 191, 196, 199, 199), there had
68# been a very small, or no, increase at the end of the list. We might
69# then suspect that the number of samples is probably large enough.
70# There is however no guarantee for that.
71#
72# Steps 1-2 are done in run_cyclictest_suite
73# Steps 3-5 are done in gen_minmax_list.
74# Step 6 needs to be done manually since there is (yet) no well defined
75# FAIL criterion and a theoretically solid PASS criterion may never be
76# available.
