rtla/timerlat_top: Set OSNOISE_WORKLOAD for kernel threads
When using rtla timerlat with userspace threads (-u or -U), rtla
disables the OSNOISE_WORKLOAD option in
/sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/options. This option is not re-enabled in a
subsequent run with kernel-space threads, leading to rtla collecting no
results if the previous run exited abnormally:
$ rtla timerlat top -u
^\Quit (core dumped)
$ rtla timerlat top -k -d 1s
Timer Latency
0 00:00:01 | IRQ Timer Latency (us) | Thread Timer Latency (us)
CPU COUNT | cur min avg max | cur min avg max
The issue persists until OSNOISE_WORKLOAD is set manually by running:
$ echo OSNOISE_WORKLOAD > /sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/options
Set OSNOISE_WORKLOAD when running rtla with kernel-space threads if
available to fix the issue.
