 To be able to see captured events after the end of the rtla run, trace output has to be enabled using the //--trace/-t// option, unless -a is used, which enables //-t// automatically.
+===== Calling into external tooling =====
+Since version 6.17, **rtla** supports integrating external tools into latency measurement by the means of //actions//. Actions can run a command or send a signal to a process whenever tracing is stopped on latency threshold set with //-T/-i/-a// (for timerlat; //-s/-S/-a// for osnoise), or at the end of tracing. A special action resumes tracing after stop, if requested.
+External tooling might be used in cases where rtla's tracefs-based diagnostics are insufficient. See the rtla manpages for how to use actions. One specific use of actions is covered in the tutorial, [[realtime:documentation:howto:tools:rtla:processor_trace|Using rtla with perf processor trace]].
