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

 *                                    |
 *   report information here ---------+
 *
 * Definitions:
 *
 *   Start: Absolute time when the current deadline-oriented work began. Due
 *          to scheduling latency, preemption, and blocking points, the
 *          thread controlling the work interval may actually begin
 *          executing after this ideal time (which may be the previous work
 *          interval's "next start")
 *   Finish: Absolute time when the current deadline-oriented work finished.
 *          This will typically be a timestamp taken before reporting using
 *          the work interval interface.
 *   Deadline: Absolute time by which the current work was expected to finish.
 *          In cases where the amount of computation (or preemption, or time
 *          spent blocked) causes the active period to take longer than
 *          expected, F may be greater than D.
 *   Next start: Absolute time when the next deadline-oriented work is
 *          expected to begin. This is typically the same as Deadline.
 *   Active: The fraction of the work interval spent completing the work. In
 *          cases where the Finish time exceeded the Deadline, this fraction
 *          will be >1.0.
 *
 * Basic Use:
 *
 *   Clients should report information for a work interval after finishing
 *   work for the current interval but before the next work interval begins.
 *
 *   If Finish far exceeds the previously expected Deadline, the
 *   caller may adjust Next Start to align to a multiple of the period
 *   (and skip over several work intervals that could not be
 *   executed).
 *
 * Caution (!):
 *
 *   Because the information supplied via this facility directly influences power
 *   management decisions, clients should strive to be as accurate as possible.
 *   Failure to do so will adversely impact system power and performance.
