+------------------------------------------------------
+Display a histogram of the osnoise tracer samples
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+:Manual section: 1
+
+SYNOPSIS
+========
+**rtla osnoise hist** [*OPTIONS*]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+.. include:: common_osnoise_description.rst
+
+The **rtla osnoise hist** tool collects all **osnoise:sample_threshold**
+occurrence in a histogram, displaying the results in a user-friendly way.
+The tool also allows many configurations of the *osnoise* tracer and the
+collection of the tracer output.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+.. include:: common_osnoise_options.rst
+
+.. include:: common_hist_options.rst
+
+.. include:: common_options.rst
+
+EXAMPLE
+=======
+In the example below, *osnoise* tracer threads are set to run with real-time
+priority *FIFO:1*, on CPUs *0-11*, for *900ms* at each period (*1s* by
+default). The reason for reducing the runtime is to avoid starving the
+**rtla** tool. The tool is also set to run for *one minute*. The output
+histogram is set to group outputs in buckets of *10us* and *25* entries::
