From 1b92da30837e9552aba209cbdf938877f0fd3bbf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Somerville Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2013 17:23:14 -0500 Subject: cyclictest: finish removal of 1 second first loops Huge latencies are observed (close to 1 second) when certain options are used in cyclictest. The problem was 1st introduced at commit da4956cbcaf7945554f ("use interval on first loop instead of 1 second"). It removed the 1 second first timing loop out of the main path in cyclictest but left it in two other paths, namely the ones triggered by these two options: -r --relative use relative timer instead of absolute -s --system use sys_nanosleep and sys_setitimer which in turn causes the huge latencies of close to 1 second to be reported by cyclictest with certain uses of those two options. Here we extend the original commit to remove the 1 second hardcoded timer values from the RELTIME and ITIMER options, by simply using the actual interval provided instead.
