- tracing_threshold: the minimum delta between two time() reads to be

be used, which is currently 5 us.

- osnoise/options: a set of on/off options that can be enabled by
|

writing the option name to the file or disabled by writing the option

name preceded with the 'NO_' prefix. For example, writing

NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD disables the OSNOISE_WORKLOAD option. The

The reason roots in the overhead of the entry and exit code that happens

By enabling the osnoise tracer with the NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD option set,

the osnoise: tracepoints serve to measure the execution time of
