System-level Core Jitter
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

::

  $ sudo taskset -c 3 /home/testuser/pma_tools/jitter/jitter -i 30
  Linux Jitter testing program version 1.9
  Iterations=20
  The pragram will execute a dummy function 80000 times
  Display is updated every 20000 displayUpdate intervals
  Thread affinity will be set to core_id:7
  Timings are in CPU Core cycles
  Inst_Min:    Minimum Excution time during the display update interval(default is ~1 second)
  Inst_Max:    Maximum Excution time during the display update interval(default is ~1 second)
  Inst_jitter: Jitter in the Excution time during rhe display update interval. This is the value of interest
  last_Exec:   The Excution time of last iteration just before the display update
  Abs_Min:     Absolute Minimum Excution time since the program started or statistics were reset
  Abs_Max:     Absolute Maximum Excution time since the program started or statistics were reset
  tmp:         Cumulative value calcualted by the dummy function
  Interval:    Time interval between the display updates in Core Cycles
  Sample No:   Sample number
