44  * This module implements I/O limits using the leaky bucket
45  * algorithm. The code is independent of the I/O units, but it is
46  * currently used for bytes per second and operations per second.
47  *
48  * Three parameters can be set by the user:
49  *
50  * - avg: the desired I/O limits in units per second.
51  * - max: the limit during bursts, also in units per second.
52  * - burst_length: the maximum length of the burst period, in seconds.
53  *
54  * Here's how it works:
55  *
56  * - The bucket level (number of performed I/O units) is kept in
57  *   bkt.level and leaks at a rate of bkt.avg units per second.
58  *
59  * - The size of the bucket is bkt.max * bkt.burst_length. Once the
60  *   bucket is full no more I/O is performed until the bucket leaks
61  *   again. This is what makes the I/O rate bkt.avg.
62  *
63  * - The bkt.avg rate does not apply until the bucket is full,
64  *   allowing the user to do bursts until then. The I/O limit during
65  *   bursts is bkt.max. To enforce this limit we keep an additional
66  *   bucket in bkt.burst_level that leaks at a rate of bkt.max units
67  *   per second.
68  *
69  * - Because of all of the above, the user can perform I/O at a
70  *   maximum of bkt.max units per second for at most bkt.burst_length
71  *   seconds in a row. After that the bucket will be full and the I/O
72  *   rate will go down to bkt.avg.
73  *
74  * - Since the bucket always leaks at a rate of bkt.avg, this also
75  *   determines how much the user needs to wait before being able to
76  *   do bursts again.
