RTEval实时系统测评工具

RTEval是一个python应用程序，用于测试和分析实时系统的实时性，RTEval首先在待测试的目标系统上运行两个系统负载，分别为hackbench和解压缩并编译一份linux kernel的源码，与此同时，运行cyclictest对实时系统进行测试。

当运行设定时间后，系统负载和cyclictest同时停止，RTEval输出cyclictest的测试结果，并对其进行分析，并将分析结果输出至一xml文件。

RTEval的配置项在rteval.conf和Makefile中，比如duration，在makefile中默认值为10s，可以修改为10m，或10h，1d。

RTEval是python代码，就不做具体的代码分析了，操作步骤如下：

• 根据链接（https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/realtime/documentation/howto/tools/rteval）指导安装所需工具

• sudo make install
• 下载kernel的tarfile，作为负载使用：wget -P loadsource https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/linux-5.13.2.tar.xz
• 运行命令：sudo make runit

运行10分钟，结果如下：

这里面我们最关注的是每个cpu下面的max值，表示cyclictest在当前负载下的最大延时，loadavg也需要关注一下，表示运行cyclictest时系统的负载状况。
