-> Maximum number of CPUs (NR_CPUS) = Set your number (it's generally "4")
-> SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support = DISABLE IT
Power Management and ACPI options
CPU idle PM support = DISABLE IT

add following line to your ~/.bashrc (if you use bash)
export PATH=/usr/realtime/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/realtime/lib
use new environment variable
source ~/.bashrc
Create a file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/rtai.conf with the content
/usr/realtime/lib
run ldconfigin order to take it into account
ldconfig
Now, run latency test:
cd /usr/realtime/testsuite/kern/latency
./run
