831
832	  For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5
833	  clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will
834	  be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp
835	  effective value to 25%.
836	  If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU,
837	  that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and
838	  it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%.
839	  The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value
840	  (20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in
841	  that bucket.
842
843	  An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the
844	  example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the
845	  CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems,
846	  it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of
847	  clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking

1842
1843	  Software events are supported either built-in or via the
1844	  use of generic tracepoints.
1845
1846	  Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance
1847	  counter registers. These registers count the number of certain
1848	  types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
1849	  suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
1850	  kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
1851	  when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
1852	  used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.
1853
1854	  The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of
1855	  these software and hardware event capabilities, available via a
1856	  system call and used by the "perf" utility in tools/perf/. It
