/*
 * The main goal of this algorithm is to predict the next interrupt
 * occurrence on the current CPU.
 *
 * Currently, the interrupt timings are stored in a circular array
 * buffer every time there is an interrupt, as a tuple: the interrupt
 * number and the associated timestamp when the event occurred <irq,
 * timestamp>.
 *
 * For every interrupt occurring in a short period of time, we can
 * measure the elapsed time between the occurrences for the same
 * interrupt and we end up with a suite of intervals. The experience
 * showed the interrupts are often coming following a periodic
 * pattern.
 *
 * The objective of the algorithm is to find out this periodic pattern
 * in a fastest way and use its period to predict the next irq event.
 *
 * When the next interrupt event is requested, we are in the situation
 * where the interrupts are disabled and the circular buffer
 * containing the timings is filled with the events which happened
 * after the previous next-interrupt-event request.
 *
 * At this point, we read the circular buffer and we fill the irq
 * related statistics structure. After this step, the circular array
 * containing the timings is empty because all the values are
 * dispatched in their corresponding buffers.
 *
 * Now for each interrupt, we can predict the next event by using the
 * suffix array, log interval and exponential moving average
 *
 * 1. Suffix array
 *
 * Suffix array is an array of all the suffixes of a string. It is
 * widely used as a data structure for compression, text search, ...
 * For instance for the word 'banana', the suffixes will be: 'banana'
 * 'anana' 'nana' 'ana' 'na' 'a'
 *
 * Usually, the suffix array is sorted but for our purpose it is
 * not necessary and won't provide any improvement in the context of
 * the solved problem where we clearly define the boundaries of the
 * search by a max period and min period.
 *
 * The suffix array will build a suite of intervals of different
 * length and will look for the repetition of each suite. If the suite
 * is repeating then we have the period because it is the length of
 * the suite whatever its position in the buffer.
 *
 * 2. Log interval
 *
 * We saw the irq timings allow to compute the interval of the
 * occurrences for a specific interrupt. We can reasonibly assume the
 * longer is the interval, the higher is the error for the next event
 * and we can consider storing those interval values into an array
 * where each slot in the array correspond to an interval at the power
 * of 2 of the index. For example, index 12 will contain values
 * between 2^11 and 2^12.
 *
 * At the end we have an array of values where at each index defines a
 * [2^index - 1, 2 ^ index] interval values allowing to store a large
 * number of values inside a small array.
 *
 * For example, if we have the value 1123, then we store it at
 * ilog2(1123) = 10 index value.
 *
 * Storing those value at the specific index is done by computing an
 * exponential moving average for this specific slot. For instance,
 * for values 1800, 1123, 1453, ... fall under the same slot (10) and
 * the exponential moving average is computed every time a new value
 * is stored at this slot.
 *
 * 3. Exponential Moving Average
 *
 * The EMA is largely used to track a signal for stocks or as a low
 * pass filter. The magic of the formula, is it is very simple and the
 * reactivity of the average can be tuned with the factors called
 * alpha.
 *
 * The higher the alphas are, the faster the average respond to the
 * signal change. In our case, if a slot in the array is a big
 * interval, we can have numbers with a big difference between
 * them. The impact of those differences in the average computation
 * can be tuned by changing the alpha value.
 *
 *
 *  -- The algorithm --
 *
 * We saw the different processing above, now let's see how they are
 * used together.
 *
 * For each interrupt:
 *	For each interval:
 *		Compute the index = ilog2(interval)
 *		Compute a new_ema(buffer[index], interval)
 *		Store the index in a circular buffer
 *
 *	Compute the suffix array of the indexes
 *
 *	For each suffix:
 *		If the suffix is reverse-found 3 times
 *			Return suffix
 *
 *	Return Not found
 *
 * However we can not have endless suffix array to be build, it won't
 * make sense and it will add an extra overhead, so we can restrict
 * this to a maximum suffix length of 5 and a minimum suffix length of
 * 2. The experience showed 5 is the majority of the maximum pattern
 * period found for different devices.
 *
 * The result is a pattern finding less than 1us for an interrupt.
 *
 * Example based on real values:
 *
 * Example 1 : MMC write/read interrupt interval:
 *
 *	223947, 1240, 1384, 1386, 1386,
 *	217416, 1236, 1384, 1386, 1387,
 *	214719, 1241, 1386, 1387, 1384,
 *	213696, 1234, 1384, 1386, 1388,
 *	219904, 1240, 1385, 1389, 1385,
 *	212240, 1240, 1386, 1386, 1386,
 *	214415, 1236, 1384, 1386, 1387,
 *	214276, 1234, 1384, 1388, ?
 *
 * For each element, apply ilog2(value)
 *
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, ?
 *
 * Max period of 5, we take the last (max_period * 3) 15 elements as
 * we can be confident if the pattern repeats itself three times it is
 * a repeating pattern.
 *
 *	             8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, 8,
 *	15, 8, 8, 8, ?
 *
 * Suffixes are:
 *
 *  1) 8, 15, 8, 8, 8  <- max period
 *  2) 8, 15, 8, 8
 *  3) 8, 15, 8
 *  4) 8, 15           <- min period
 *
 * From there we search the repeating pattern for each suffix.
 *
 * buffer: 8, 15, 8, 8, 8, 8, 15, 8, 8, 8, 8, 15, 8, 8, 8
 *         |   |  |  |  |  |   |  |  |  |  |   |  |  |  |
 *         8, 15, 8, 8, 8  |   |  |  |  |  |   |  |  |  |
 *                         8, 15, 8, 8, 8  |   |  |  |  |
 *                                         8, 15, 8, 8, 8
 *
 * When moving the suffix, we found exactly 3 matches.
 *
 * The first suffix with period 5 is repeating.
 *
 * The next event is (3 * max_period) % suffix_period
 *
 * In this example, the result 0, so the next event is suffix[0] => 8
 *
 * However, 8 is the index in the array of exponential moving average
 * which was calculated on the fly when storing the values, so the
 * interval is ema[8] = 1366
 *
 *
 * Example 2:
 *
 *	4, 3, 5, 100,
 *	3, 3, 5, 117,
 *	4, 4, 5, 112,
 *	4, 3, 4, 110,

 *  4) 0, 0

 *         0, 0, 4, 0, 0, |  X
 *                        0, 0

 *                                             0  0  4
 *
 * Pattern is found 3 times, the remaining is 1 which results from
 * (max_period * 3) % suffix_period. This value is the index in the
 * suffix arrays. The suffix array for a period 4 has the value 4
