+ * Frequency meter - How fast is some event occuring?
+ *
+ * These routines manage a digitally filtered, constant time based,
+ * event frequency meter. There are four routines:
+ * fmeter_init() - initialize a frequency meter.
+ * fmeter_markevent() - called each time the event happens.
+ * fmeter_getrate() - returns the recent rate of such events.
+ * fmeter_update() - internal routine used to update fmeter.
+ *
+ * A common data structure is passed to each of these routines,
+ * which is used to keep track of the state required to manage the
+ * frequency meter and its digital filter.
+ *
+ * The filter works on the number of events marked per unit time.
+ * The filter is single-pole low-pass recursive (IIR). The time unit
+ * is 1 second. Arithmetic is done using 32-bit integers scaled to
+ * simulate 3 decimal digits of precision (multiplied by 1000).
+ *
+ * With an FM_COEF of 933, and a time base of 1 second, the filter
+ * has a half-life of 10 seconds, meaning that if the events quit
+ * happening, then the rate returned from the fmeter_getrate()
+ * will be cut in half each 10 seconds, until it converges to zero.
+ *
+ * It is not worth doing a real infinitely recursive filter. If more
+ * than FM_MAXTICKS ticks have elapsed since the last filter event,
+ * just compute FM_MAXTICKS ticks worth, by which point the level
+ * will be stable.
+ *
+ * Limit the count of unprocessed events to FM_MAXCNT, so as to avoid
+ * arithmetic overflow in the fmeter_update() routine.
+ *
+ * Given the simple 32 bit integer arithmetic used, this meter works
+ * best for reporting rates between one per millisecond (msec) and
+ * one per 32 (approx) seconds. At constant rates faster than one
+ * per msec it maxes out at values just under 1,000,000. At constant
+ * rates between one per msec, and one per second it will stabilize
+ * to a value N*1000, where N is the rate of events per second.
+ * At constant rates between one per second and one per 32 seconds,
+ * it will be choppy, moving up on the seconds that have an event,
+ * and then decaying until the next event. At rates slower than
+ * about one in 32 seconds, it decays all the way back to zero between
+ * each event.
