- * There are two ways to use this qdisc:
- * 1. A simple "instantaneous" plug/unplug operation, by issuing an alternating
- * sequence of TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER & TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_INDEFINITE commands.
- *
- * 2. For network output buffering (a.k.a output commit) functionality.
- * Output commit property is commonly used by applications using checkpoint
- * based fault-tolerance to ensure that the checkpoint from which a system
- * is being restored is consistent w.r.t outside world.
- *
- * Consider for e.g. Remus - a Virtual Machine checkpointing system,
- * wherein a VM is checkpointed, say every 50ms. The checkpoint is replicated
- * asynchronously to the backup host, while the VM continues executing the
- * next epoch speculatively.
- *
- * The following is a typical sequence of output buffer operations:
- * 1.At epoch i, start_buffer(i)
- * 2. At end of epoch i (i.e. after 50ms):
- * 2.1 Stop VM and take checkpoint(i).
- * 2.2 start_buffer(i+1) and Resume VM
- * 3. While speculatively executing epoch(i+1), asynchronously replicate
- * checkpoint(i) to backup host.
- * 4. When checkpoint_ack(i) is received from backup, release_buffer(i)
- * Thus, this Qdisc would receive the following sequence of commands:
- * TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER (epoch i)
- * .. TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER (epoch i+1)
- * ....TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_ONE (epoch i)
- * ......TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER (epoch i+2)
- * ........
