Subject: Re: High latency when running cyclictest

Dear Rostedt,

This is chensong who was asking question in #linux-rt channel. I
upgrated my rt-tests to the lastest version (cyclictest V 1.80) and
trace-cmd as well(trace-cmd version 2.9.dev).

I ran commands like these:
trace-cmd start -e irq -e sched -e timer -p function -l '*spin*';
cyclictest -p 90 -m -c 0 -i 100 -h 100 -q -l 1000000 -b 80 --tracemark
trace-cmd extract
trace-cmd report

The log of last cycle before cyclictest reached the threshold and quit
is like that:


<idle>-0     [000]   130.330659: irq_handler_entry:    irq=4 name=arch_timer
<idle>-0     [000]   130.330665: function:

_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore
<idle>-0     [000]   130.330703: irq_handler_exit:     irq=4 ret=handled

It took 44us from irq_handler_entry to irq_handler_exit, compare to
normal case which generally took only around 15us, it produced around
30us extra latency. I also found something wrong like
"_raw_spin_lock_irqsave from 130.330669 to 130.330682" and "sched_waking
from 130.330682 to 130.330695".

PS: cyclictest was running on CPU0 and a firefox was running on CPU1
meanwhile.

I tried to dig deeper, is there any way to find more information, please
let me know, many thanks.

Here is more log for reference:
