Such a queue would have these general properties: + * + * 1) Objects are queued up to some limit specified as number of objects. + * 2) Periodically a completion process executes which retires consumed + * objects. + * 3) Starvation occurs when limit has been reached, all queued data has + * actually been consumed, but completion processing has not yet run + * so queuing new data is blocked. + * 4) Minimizing the amount of queued data is desirable. + * + * The goal of dql is to calculate the limit as the minimum number of objects + * needed to prevent starvation. + * + * The primary functions of dql are: + * dql_queued - called when objects are enqueued to record number of objects + * dql_avail - returns how many objects are available to be queued based + * on the object limit and how many objects are already enqueued + * dql_completed - called at completion time to indicate how many objects + * were retired from the queue + * + * The dql implementation does not implement any locking for the dql data + * structures, the higher layer should provide this. dql_queued should + * be serialized to prevent concurrent execution of the function; this + * is also true for dql_completed.
