Thinking only about the instrumentation/events, what they are tracking is the execution time. So how about naming them as: exec_time:thread exec_time:irq
I guess. I should go and look at your other code.
Also adding that, although here we measure the execution time of "task" context, on rtsl we have other kinds of "windows" that they measure, for instance, the poid window (Preemption or IRQ disabled). So, the term exec time also fits there.
