(The ‘-w’ option for rtspin.) With ‘-w’, rtspin will block until the user execute’s liblitmus’s ‘release_ts’ (“release task set”). Task set release records a timestamped ’sys_release’ event in sched_trace. You can then discard any releases/completions that occur before the sys_release timestamp. I believe this will happen naturally if you tell unit-trace to discard the first job of every task with “-s 1”.</div><div><br></div><div>The “experiment-scripts” package (<a href="https://github.com/LITMUS-RT/experiment-scripts">https://github.com/LITMUS-RT/experiment-scripts</a>) can also be used to analyze traces. However, it also requires you to use its framework to set up experiments (this can take some time if you need to do something out of the ordinary). The tool currently only gives you information on job deadline misses, tardiness, and the amount of time tasks send blocked. However, it’s fairly easy to extend parse/sched.py to do other forms of analysis, such as job response time.</div><div><br></div><div>-Glenn</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Apr 16, 2014, at 12:14 PM, Thijs Raets <<a href="mailto:thijsraets@gmail.com">thijsraets@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Hi, </span><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">I'm using feather trace to monitor the rtspin task. I parsed the .bin file with unit-trace and thus extracted release and completion. The problem is that I also would like to record the time at which I give the order to execute the rtspin task. I need this time to calculate the theoretical deadlines of the different jobs since the release time of the first job could have been postponed. I however do not know how time is registered within feather trace. I would like to use the same reference to record the start time. Where do I look?</div>
