+
+        The default should be sufficient for most systems. Increase the buffer

+ * litmus/sched_cedf.c
+ *
+ * Implementation of the C-EDF scheduling algorithm.
+ *
+ * This implementation is based on G-EDF:
+ * - CPUs are clustered around L2 or L3 caches.
+ * - Clusters topology is automatically detected (this is arch dependent
+ *   and is working only on x86 at the moment --- and only with modern
+ *   cpus that exports cpuid4 information)
+ * - The plugins _does not_ attempt to put tasks in the right cluster i.e.
+ *   the programmer needs to be aware of the topology to place tasks
+ *   in the desired cluster
+ * - default clustering is around L2 cache (cache index = 2)
+ *   supported clusters are: L1 (private cache: pedf), L2, L3, ALL (all
+ *   online_cpus are placed in a single cluster).
+ *
+ *   For details on functions, take a look at sched_gsn_edf.c
+ *
+ * Currently, we do not support changes in the number of online cpus.
+ * If the num_online_cpus() dynamically changes, the plugin is broken.
+ *
+ * This version uses the simple approach and serializes all scheduling
+ * decisions by the use of a queue lock. This is probably not the
+ * best way to do it, but it should suffice for now.

+/* Overview of GSN-EDF operations.
+ *
+ * For a detailed explanation of GSN-EDF have a look at the FMLP paper. This
+ * description only covers how the individual operations are implemented in
+ * LITMUS.
+ *
+ * link_task_to_cpu(T, cpu)     - Low-level operation to update the linkage
+ *                                structure (NOT the actually scheduled
+ *                                task). If there is another linked task To
+ *                                already it will set To->linked_on = NO_CPU
+ *                                (thereby removing its association with this
+ *                                CPU). However, it will not requeue the
+ *                                previously linked task (if any). It will set
+ *                                T's state to RT_F_RUNNING and check whether
+ *                                it is already running somewhere else. If T
+ *                                is scheduled somewhere else it will link
+ *                                it to that CPU instead (and pull the linked
+ *                                task to cpu). T may be NULL.
+ *
+ * unlink(T)                    - Unlink removes T from all scheduler data
+ *                                structures. If it is linked to some CPU it
+ *                                will link NULL to that CPU. If it is
+ *                                currently queued in the gsnedf queue it will
+ *                                be removed from the rt_domain. It is safe to
+ *                                call unlink(T) if T is not linked. T may not
+ *                                be NULL.
+ *
+ * requeue(T)                   - Requeue will insert T into the appropriate
+ *                                queue. If the system is in real-time mode and
+ *                                the T is released already, it will go into the
+ *                                ready queue. If the system is not in
+ *                                real-time mode is T, then T will go into the
+ *                                release queue. If T's release time is in the
+ *                                future, it will go into the release
+ *                                queue. That means that T's release time/job
+ *                                no/etc. has to be updated before requeu(T) is
+ *                                called. It is not safe to call requeue(T)
+ *                                when T is already queued. T may not be NULL.
+ *
+ * gsnedf_job_arrival(T)        - This is the catch all function when T enters
+ *                                the system after either a suspension or at a
+ *                                job release. It will queue T (which means it
+ *                                is not safe to call gsnedf_job_arrival(T) if
+ *                                T is already queued) and then check whether a
+ *                                preemption is necessary. If a preemption is
+ *                                necessary it will update the linkage
+ *                                accordingly and cause scheduled to be called
+ *                                (either with an IPI or need_resched). It is
+ *                                safe to call gsnedf_job_arrival(T) if T's
+ *                                next job has not been actually released yet
+ *                                (releast time in the future). T will be put
+ *                                on the release queue in that case.
+ *
+ * job_completion(T)            - Take care of everything that needs to be done
+ *                                to prepare T for its next release and place
+ *                                it in the right queue with
+ *                                gsnedf_job_arrival().
+ *
+ *
+ * When we now that T is linked to CPU then link_task_to_cpu(NULL, CPU) is
+ * equivalent to unlink(T). Note that if you unlink a task from a CPU none of
+ * the functions will automatically propagate pending task from the ready queue
+ * to a linked task. This is the job of the calling function ( by means of
+ * __take_ready).

+ * litmus/sched_gsn_edf.c
+ *
+ * Implementation of the GSN-EDF scheduling algorithm with job splitting, i.e.
+ * GSN-EDF.
+ *
+ * This plugin is a modified version of the prior GSN-EDF plugin in
+ * litmus/sched_gsn_edf.c
+ * 
+ * Splitting an implicit-deadline job simply means splitting each job into an
+ * integral number of subjobs.  For example, a task with a period of 10 ms and
+ * a runtime of 4 ms could be re-organized as a task with a period of 5 ms and
+ * a runtime of 2 ms, with analytical benefit for bounded tardiness (ignoring
+ * overheads and assuming no critical sections).  This would have a "splitting
+ * factor" of 2.
+ *
+ * Because our analysis works with early releasing, we actually only release
+ * each job once, but move the subjob deadline back when the appropriate amount
+ * of execution has been completed.  (In the example above, a job released at
+ * time 0 would intially have a subjob deadline at time 5, but this deadline
+ * would be moved to time 10 as soon as 2 ms of execution had completed.)
