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.
48 * Three parameters can be set by the user:
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.
54 * Here's how it works:
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.
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.
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_length that leaks at a rate of bkt.max units
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.
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
