Hi, all guys,
Now I am using linux-dovetail/v5.15.6-dovetail1-rebase on my RDB board.
1 . I am running latency command, but when I running command:
latency -t 1 -T 30
I got the negative value:
RTD|     -2.760|     -2.654|     -1.800|       0|     0|     -2.760|     -1.400

2. Then, I got the solution from google:
Run command: xeno latency -T 20
I got:
RTD|     -1.360|     -1.235|     -0.040|       0|     0|     -1.440|      0.440

3. then I update /proc/xenomai/latency value
echo -1440 > /proc/xenomai/latency

4. when I run xeno latency again, I got below result:
RTD|      5.240|      5.389|      6.640|       0|     0|      5.040|      7.600

5. but when I run command again: latency -t 1 -T 30,
I still got the negative value:
RTD|     -2.760|     -2.652|     -1.760|       0|     0|     -2.760|     -1.400

So, How to fix the issue?
And how to check the xenomai interrupt? I remember I can get the interrupt number through "cat /proc/xenomai/irq",but now I can't find it.

Best Regards
Jerry Huang

The core timer needs to be calibrated, it looks like the default
calibration values are too conservative for the performances of this
board (is it from the Layerscape series?), especially for kernel
thread/irq wakeups. This may help:

With Dovetail underneath, you just need to look at /proc/interrupts as
usual. The 'oob' flag tells you whether the interrupt is handled by the
real-time core in out-of-band mode (real-time).

e.g. this is from an i.MX6QP SabreSD, we can see the per-CPU TWD being
handled in oob mode for high-precision timing by the real-time
domain. The proxy tick interrupt (315) is a synthetic IRQ created by
Dovetail in order to relay some timer events to the common kernel at due
date, since the real-time core manages the hardware for the whole
system.

Thanks a lot, Philippe.
Yes, my board is LayerScape ls1043ardb and ls1028ardb.
With the command "autotune", now the negative value issue is fixed.

Thanks, Philippe,
I can see my interrupt in /proc/interrupts with oob flag
