162306a36Sopenharmony_ciThe **rtla timerlat** tool is an interface for the *timerlat* tracer. The
262306a36Sopenharmony_ci*timerlat* tracer dispatches a kernel thread per-cpu. These threads
362306a36Sopenharmony_ciset a periodic timer to wake themselves up and go back to sleep. After
462306a36Sopenharmony_cithe wakeup, they collect and generate useful information for the
562306a36Sopenharmony_cidebugging of operating system timer latency.

762306a36Sopenharmony_ciThe *timerlat* tracer outputs information in two ways. It periodically
862306a36Sopenharmony_ciprints the timer latency at the timer *IRQ* handler and the *Thread*
962306a36Sopenharmony_cihandler. It also enable the trace of the most relevant information via
1062306a36Sopenharmony_ci**osnoise:** tracepoints.
