// This is the hardware representation of the policer.
// To be multithread-safe, the policer is accessed through a spin-lock
// on the lock field. (For a policer update operation, 24B needs to be
// modified and this would be a challenge to do with atomic instructions.)
// The structure is padded so that no other data is put into the same
// 64B cache-line. This reduces cache-thrashing between threads.
//
// A note on scale:
// The HW TSC tick is roughly one CPU clock cycle.
// This is shifted to create a larger period, with a goal to be around 50usec.
// The period time will vary based on CPU clock speed.
// CPU speeds of 1Ghz to 8Ghz are targetted.
// The shift amount is a constant 17 bits, resulting in a period between
// 16usec (8Ghz CPU) and 131usec (1Ghz CPU).
// The token_per_period computation takes into account the clock speed.
//
// The 32-bit bucket/limit supports about 850ms of burst on a 40GE port,
// or 340ms on a 100GE port. If a larger burst is configured, then the
// programmed value is simply capped at 2^32-1. If we needed to support
// more than that, the bucket and limit fields could be expanded.
//
// tokens_per_period should be > 1000 to support 0.1% granularity.
// To support lower rates (which would not meet this requirement), the packet
// length, bucket, and limit values can be scaled. The scale is a power of 2
// so the multiplication can be implemented as a shift. The control plane
// computes the shift amount be the largest possible that still supports the
// burst size. This makes the rate accuracy as high as possible.
//
// The 64-bit last_update_time supports a 4Ghz CPU without rollover for 100
// years
//
// The lock field should be used for a spin-lock on the struct. Alternatively,
// a thread index field is provided so that policed packets may be handed
// off to a single worker thread.

// cause a 64-bit overflow when computing tokens_per_period * num_periods.
// It will overflow if log2(n_periods) + log2(tokens_per_period) > 64.
//
// To mitigate this, the policer configuration algorithm insures that
// tokens_per_period is less than 2^22, i.e. this is a 22 bit value not
// a 32-bit value. Thus overflow will only occur if n_periods > 64-22 or
// 42. 2^42 min-sized periods is 16us * 2^42, or 2 years. So this can
// rarely occur. If overflow does happen, the only effect will be that
// fewer tokens than the max burst will be added to the bucket for this
// packet. This constraint on tokens_per_period lets the ucode omit
// code to dynamically check for or prevent the overflow.
