^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

RP Message latency is the delay measured from sending a round trip echo message from
a Linux application to a remote processor and back. The following measurements use
a RP message length of 1 byte and 490 bytes for comparison.

The Linux user space application `rpmsg_char_benchmark <https://git.ti.com/cgit/rpmsg/ti-rpmsg-char/>`__ captures these latency values.

Test commands used for running IPC latency tests:

.. code:: console

rpmsg_char_benchmark -r 2 -n 100000 -m 1 & chrt -f -p 80 $!

Latencies reported:

.. csv-table::
:header: "Remote Processor","Message Size (in bytes)","Average round trip (usecs)","Max round trip (usecs)"
