36 * Write scheduling works by keeping track of which channels can
37 * accept cells, and have cells to write. From the scheduler's perspective,
38 * a channel can be in four possible states:
40 * 1.) Not open for writes, no cells to send
41 * - Not much to do here, and the channel will have scheduler_state ==
42 * SCHED_CHAN_IDLE
43 * - Transitions from:
44 * - Open for writes/has cells by simultaneously draining all circuit
45 * queues and filling the output buffer.
46 * - Transitions to:
47 * - Not open for writes/has cells by arrival of cells on an attached
48 * circuit (this would be driven from append_cell_to_circuit_queue())
49 * - Open for writes/no cells by a channel type specific path;
50 * driven from connection_or_flushed_some() for channel_tls_t.
52 * 2.) Open for writes, no cells to send
53 * - Not much here either; this will be the state an idle but open channel
54 * can be expected to settle in. It will have scheduler_state ==
55 * SCHED_CHAN_WAITING_FOR_CELLS
56 * - Transitions from:
57 * - Not open for writes/no cells by flushing some of the output
58 * buffer.
59 * - Open for writes/has cells by the scheduler moving cells from
60 * circuit queues to channel output queue, but not having enough
61 * to fill the output queue.
62 * - Transitions to:
63 * - Open for writes/has cells by arrival of new cells on an attached
64 * circuit, in append_cell_to_circuit_queue()
66 * 3.) Not open for writes, cells to send
67 * - This is the state of a busy circuit limited by output bandwidth;
68 * cells have piled up in the circuit queues waiting to be relayed.
69 * The channel will have scheduler_state == SCHED_CHAN_WAITING_TO_WRITE.
70 * - Transitions from:
71 * - Not open for writes/no cells by arrival of cells on an attached
72 * circuit
73 * - Open for writes/has cells by filling an output buffer without
74 * draining all cells from attached circuits
75 * - Transitions to:
76 * - Opens for writes/has cells by draining some of the output buffer
77 * via the connection_or_flushed_some() path (for channel_tls_t).
79 * 4.) Open for writes, cells to send
80 * - This connection is ready to relay some cells and waiting for
81 * the scheduler to choose it. The channel will have scheduler_state ==
82 * SCHED_CHAN_PENDING.
83 * - Transitions from:
84 * - Not open for writes/has cells by the connection_or_flushed_some()
85 * path
86 * - Open for writes/no cells by the append_cell_to_circuit_queue()
87 * path
88 * - Transitions to:
89 * - Not open for writes/no cells by draining all circuit queues and
90 * simultaneously filling the output buffer.
91 * - Not open for writes/has cells by writing enough cells to fill the
92 * output buffer
93 * - Open for writes/no cells by draining all attached circuit queues
94 * without also filling the output buffer
96 * Other event-driven parts of the code move channels between these scheduling
97 * states by calling scheduler functions; the scheduler only runs on open-for-
98 * writes/has-cells channels and is the only path for those to transition to
99 * other states. The scheduler_run() function gives us the opportunity to do
100 * scheduling work, and is called from other scheduler functions whenever a
101 * state transition occurs, and periodically from the main event loop.
104 /* Scheduler global data structures */
107 * We keep a list of channels that are pending - i.e, have cells to write
108 * and can accept them to send. The enum scheduler_state in channel_t
