| 2 | |
| 3 | The rtla is a meta-tool that includes a set of commands that |
| 4 | aims to analyze the real-time properties of Linux. But, instead of |
| 5 | testing Linux as a black box, rtla leverages kernel tracing |
| 6 | capabilities to provide precise information about the properties |
| 7 | and root causes of unexpected results. |

| 9 | Installing RTLA |
| 10 | |
| 11 | RTLA depends on some libraries and tools. More precisely, it depends on the |
| 12 | following libraries: |
| 13 | |
| 14 | - libtracefs |
| 15 | - libtraceevent |
| 16 | - procps |
| 17 | |
| 18 | It also depends on python3-docutils to compile man pages. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | For development, we suggest the following steps for compiling rtla: |
| 21 | |
| 22 | $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtraceevent.git |
| 23 | $ cd libtraceevent/ |
| 24 | $ make |
| 25 | $ sudo make install |
| 26 | $ cd .. |
| 27 | $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git |
| 28 | $ cd libtracefs/ |
| 29 | $ make |
| 30 | $ sudo make install |
| 31 | $ cd .. |
| 32 | $ cd $rtla_src |
| 33 | $ make |
| 34 | $ sudo make install |
| 35 | |
| 36 | For further information, please refer to the rtla man page. |
