Tracing tooling updates for 6.8-rc4
RTLA:
- rtla tools are exiting with a positive value when usage()
is called. Make them return 0 if the usage was called via
-h/--help.
- the -P priority sets the sched priority for rtla workload.
When the SCHED_OTHER scheduler is selected, it sets
the rt_priority instead of the nice parameter. Setting
the nice value is the correct thing, so fix it.
- rtla is failing to compile with clang due to unsupported
options from gcc. Adjusting the compiler/linker options
makes clang work properly.
- Remove the sched_getattr() unused function on utils.c.
- Fixes on variable initialization and size, reported by
clang.
Verification:
- rv is failing to compile with clang due to unsupported
options from gcc. Adjusting the compiler/linker options
makes clang work properly.
- Fix an uninitialized variable on in_kernel.c reported by
clang.
