41  * A work interval is a repeatable unit of work characterized by a
42  * start, finish, and deadline.
43  *
44  * Trusted clients with deadline-sensitive work may report information
45  * about the execution of their work using the work interval facility.
46  * This is intended to be a higher-level semantic than realtime scheduling,
47  * which operates at the level of thread block/unblock. A high level
48  * operation may have many blocking points, including IPC to other tasks,
49  * and this this metric will capture the overall time to complete a unit of
50  * work.
51  *
52  * A work interval is defined by several timestamps, namely (S)tart,
53  * (F)inish, (D)eadline, and (N)ext start.

66  *   report information here ---------+
67  *
68  * Definitions:
69  *
70  *   Start: Absolute time when the current deadline-oriented work began. Due
71  *          to scheduling latency, preemption, and blocking points, the
72  *          thread controlling the work interval may actually begin
73  *          executing after this ideal time (which may be the previous work
74  *          interval's "next start")
75  *   Finish: Absolute time when the current deadline-oriented work finished.
76  *          This will typically be a timestamp taken before reporting using
77  *          the work interval interface.
78  *   Deadline: Absolute time by which the current work was expected to finish.
79  *          In cases where the amount of computation (or preemption, or time
80  *          spent blocked) causes the active period to take longer than
81  *          expected, F may be greater than D.
82  *   Next start: Absolute time when the next deadline-oriented work is
83  *          expected to begin. This is typically the same as Deadline.
84  *   Active: The fraction of the work interval spent completing the work. In
85  *          cases where the Finish time exceeded the Deadline, this fraction
86  *          will be >1.0.
87  *
88  * Basic Use:
89  *
90  *   Clients should report information for a work interval after finishing
91  *   work for the current interval but before the next work interval begins.
92  *
93  *   If Finish far exceeds the previously expected Deadline, the
94  *   caller may adjust Next Start to align to a multiple of the period
95  *   (and skip over several work intervals that could not be
96  *   executed).
97  *
98  * Caution (!):
99  *
100  *   Because the information supplied via this facility directly influences power
101  *   management decisions, clients should strive to be as accurate as possible.
102  *   Failure to do so will adversely impact system power and performance.
103  *
104  * Work Interval Auto Join Support:
105  *
106  * Work intervals support an optional flag WORK_INTERVAL_FLAG_ENABLE_AUTO_JOIN
107  * which allows RT threads from the same home thread group to join work
108  * intervals via wakeup relationship tracking. Based on the join policy,
109  * RT threads can temporarily join the work interval of other RT threads
110  * which make them runnable. The auto joined thread remains in the work
111  * interval until it blocks or terminates. The mechanism works through
112  * make runnable heuristic and it should be used with extreme caution.
113  * If a client specifies this flag, it gives up explicit control over its
114  * thread group membership and threads unrelated to the work interval
115  * could become part of the thread group. This could lead to serious power
116  * and performance issues. If the make runnable heuristic does not work
117  * for a client use case, it should adopt work_interval_join_port() or
118  * work_interval_join() to explicitly declare its intent.
119  *
120  * Work Interval Deferred Finish Support:
121  *
122  * Another advanced feature for work intervals is the ability to defer the finish
123  * calls for the work interval until all auto-joined threads for the work interval
124  * have blocked or terminated. This feature is enabled via an optional flag
125  * WORK_INTERVAL_FLAG_ENABLE_DEFERRED_FINISH and is valid only if the work interval
126  * is configured with the WORK_INTERVAL_FLAG_ENABLE_AUTO_JOIN flag as well. The
127  * deferred finish mechanism allows the work interval to defer the finish call
128  * for the work interval until all auto-join threads have blocked/terminated
129  * (and have therefore un-joined the work interval) or one of the work interval
130  * threads calls start for the next frame. The deferred finish works only for
131  * workloads that have no temporal overlap across frames i.e. previous frame has to
132  * finish before next frame can start. This feature should be used with caution
133  * since auto-joined threads would delay finish calls to the performance controller
134  * which could lead to poor performance and battery life.
