Most memory allocations in rtla happen during early initialization
before any resources are acquired that would require cleanup. In these
cases, propagating allocation errors just adds complexity without any
benefit. There's nothing to clean up, and the program must exit anyway.
This patch introduces fatal allocation wrappers (calloc_fatal,
reallocarray_fatal, strdup_fatal) that call fatal() on allocation
failure. These wrappers simplify the code by eliminating unnecessary
error propagation paths.
The patch converts early allocations to use these wrappers in
actions_init() and related action functions, osnoise_context_alloc()
and osnoise_init_tool(), trace_instance_init() and trace event
functions, and parameter structure allocations in main functions.
This simplifies the code while maintaining the same behavior: immediate
exit on allocation failure during initialization. Allocations that
require cleanup, such as those in histogram allocation functions with
goto cleanup paths, are left unchanged and continue to return errors.

sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) (via get_nprocs_conf) reflects
cpu_possible_mask, which is fixed at boot time, so querying it
repeatedly is unnecessary.
Replace multiple calls to sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) with a single
global nr_cpus variable initialized once at startup.
`#pragma once` in timerlat_u.h is needed for pre-C23 compilers to avoid
redefinition errors.

getopt_long() processes short and long options independently.
RTLA, like the majority of applications, uses both short and long
variants for each logical option.
Since the val member of struct option holds the letter of the short
variant, the string of short options can be reconstructed from the
array of long options.
Add getopt_auto() to generate optstring from an array of long options,
eliminating the need to maintain separate short option strings.

The rtla tools have significant code quadruplication in their usage
functions. Each tool implements its own version of the same help text
formatting and option descriptions, leading to maintenance overhead and
inconsistencies. Documentation/tools/rtla/common_options.rst lists 14
common options.
Add common_usage() infrastructure to consolidate help formatting.
Subsequent patches will extend this to handle other common options.
The refactored output is almost identical to the original, with the
following changes:
- add square brackets to specify optionality: `usage: [rtla] ...`
- remove `-q` from timerlat hist because hist tools don't support it
- minor spacing

When running rtla as
`rtla <timerlat|osnoise> <top|hist> -t custom_file.txt -a 100`
-a options override trace output filename specified by -t option.
Running the command above will create <timerlat|osnoise>_trace.txt file
instead of custom_file.txt. Fix this by making sure that -a option does
not override trace output filename even if it's passed after trace
output filename is specified.

Currently, user can only specify cgroup to the tracer's thread the
following ways:
`-C[cgroup]`
`-C[=cgroup]`
`--cgroup[=cgroup]`
If user tries to specify cgroup as `-C [cgroup]` or `--cgroup [cgroup]`,
the parser silently fails and rtla's cgroup is used for the tracer
threads.
To make interface more user-friendly, allow user to specify cgroup in
the aforementioned way, i.e. `-C [cgroup]` and `--cgroup [cgroup]`.
Refactor identical logic between -t/--trace and -C/--cgroup into a
common function.
Change documentation to reflect this user interface change.

Running rtla with exit on threshold, but without saving trace leads to a
segmenetation fault:
$ rtla timerlat hist -T 10
...
Max timerlat IRQ latency from idle: 4.29 us in cpu 0
Segmentation fault
This is caused by null pointer deference in the call of
save_trace_to_file, which attempts to dereference an uninitialized
osnoise_tool variable:
save_trace_to_file(record->trace.inst, params->trace_output);
^ this is uninitialized if params->trace_output is
not set
Fix this by not attempting to dereference "record" if it is NULL and
passing NULL instead. As a safety measure, the first field is also
checked for NULL inside save_trace_to_file.

All of the users of trace_is_off() passes in &record->trace as the second
parameter, where record is a pointer to a struct osnoise_tool. This record
could be NULL and there is a hidden dependency that the trace field is the
first field to allow &record->trace to work with a NULL record pointer.
In order to make this code a bit more robust, as record shouldn't be
dereferenced if it is NULL, even if the code does work, create a new
function called osnoise_trace_is_off() that takes the pointer to a
struct osnoise_tool as its second parameter. This way it can properly test
if it is NULL before it dereferences it.
The old function trace_is_off() is removed and the function
osnoise_trace_is_off() is added into osnoise.c which is what the
struct osnoise_tool is associated with.

The -t option has an optional argument.
The usual case is for a short option to be specified without an '='
and for the long version to be specified with an '='
Various forms of this do not work as expected.
For example:
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -tfile.txt
will result in a truncated file name of "ile.txt"
Another example is that the long form without the '=' will result in the
default file name instead of the requested file name.
This patch properly parses the optional argument with and without '='
and with and without spaces for the short form.
This patch was also tested using -t and --trace without providing a file
name both as the last requested option and with a following long and
short option.
For example:
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -t -u
rtla timerlat hist -T50 --trace -u
This fix is applied to both timerlat top and hist
and to osnoise top and hist.
Here is the full testing for rtla timerlat hist.
Before applying the patch
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -t=file.txt
Works as expected, "file.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -tfile.txt
Truncated file name "ile.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -t file.txt
Default file name instead of file.txt
rtla timerlat hist -T50 --trace=file.txt
Truncated file name "ile.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 --trace file.txt
Default file name "timerlat_trace.txt" instead of "file.txt"
After applying the patch:
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -t=file.txt
Works as expected, "file.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -tfile.txt
Works as expected, "file.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -t file.txt
Works as expected, "file.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 --trace=file.txt
Works as expected, "file.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 --trace file.txt
Works as expected, "file.txt"
In addition the following tests were performed to make sure that
the default file name worked as expected including with trailing
options.
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -t
Works as expected "timerlat_trace.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 --trace
Works as expected "timerlat_trace.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 -t -u
Works as expected "timerlat_trace.txt"
rtla timerlat hist -T50 --trace -u
Works as expected "timerlat_trace.txt"

Add the option allow the users to set a different buffer size for the
trace. For example, in large systems, the user might be interested on
reducing the trace buffer to avoid large tracing files.
The buffer size is specified in kB, and it is only affecting
the tracing instance.
The function trace_set_buffer_size() appears on libtracefs v1.6,
so increase the minimum required version on Makefile.config.

On many cases, the results right after the startup are different
from the rest of the execution, biasing the results. For example,
on osnoise, the scheduler might take some time to adapt to the new
busy-loop workload.
Add the --warm-up <seconds> option, adding a warm-up phase (in
seconds) where the workload is set, but the results are discarded.

osnoise runs 100% of time by default. It makes sense because osnoise
is preemptive. hwnoise checks preemption once a second, so it
reduces system progress.
Reduce runtime to 75% to avoid problems by default. I added a Fixes
as it might avoid problems for first time users as it lands on distros.

Group all start tracing after finishing creating all instances.
The tracing instance starts first for the case of hitting a stop
tracing while enabling other instances. The trace instance is the
one with most valuable information.

When the user sets -c <cpu-list> try to move rtla out of the <cpu-list>,
even without an -H option. This is useful to avoid having rtla
interfering with the workload.
This works by removing <cpu-list> from rtla's current affinity.
If rtla fails to move itself away it is not that of a problem as this
is an automatic measure.

To avoid having rtla interfering with the measurement threads, add an
option for the user to set the CPUs in which rtla should run. For
instance:
# rtla timerlat top -H 0 -c 1-7
Will place rtla in the CPU 0, while running the measurement threads in
the CPU 1-7.

The -C option sets a cgroup to the tracer's threads. If the -C option is
passed without arguments, the tracer's thread will inherit rtla's
cgroup. Otherwise, the threads will be placed on the cgroup passed
to the option.

The hwnoise tool is a special mode for the osnoise top tool.
hwnoise dispatches the osnoise tracer and displays a summary of the noise.
The difference is that it runs the tracer with the OSNOISE_IRQ_DISABLE
option set, thus only allowing only hardware-related noise, resulting in
a simplified output. hwnoise has the same features of osnoise.
An example of the tool's output:
# rtla hwnoise -c 1-11 -T 1 -d 10m -q
Hardware-related Noise

to "while(){};" leaving the ; behind.
