Fire directed smp_call_function_single IPIs from a specified source CPU to the specified target CPU to reduce the noise we have to wade through in the trace log. The module is based on the idea written by Srivatsa Bhat and maintained by Vaidyanathan Srinivasan internally.
Queue HR timer and measure jitter. Wakeup latency measurement for idle states using hrtimer. Echo a value in ns to timer_test_function and watch trace. A HRtimer will be queued and when it fires the expected wakeup vs actual wakeup is computes and delay printed in ns.
Implemented as a module which utilizes debugfs so that it can be integrated with selftests.
To include the module, check option and include as module kernel hacking -> Cpuidle latency selftests
