- * When a -deadline entity is queued back on the runqueue, its runtime and
- * deadline might need updating.
+ * Revised wakeup rule [1]: For self-suspending tasks, rather then
+ * re-initializing task's runtime and deadline, the revised wakeup
+ * rule adjusts the task's runtime to avoid the task to overrun its
+ * density.
*
- * The policy here is that we update the deadline of the entity only if:
- * - the current deadline is in the past,
- * - using the remaining runtime with the current deadline would make
- * the entity exceed its bandwidth.
+ * Reasoning: a task may overrun the density if:
+ * runtime / (deadline - t) > dl_runtime / dl_deadline
+ *
+ * Therefore, runtime can be adjusted to:
+ * runtime = (dl_runtime / dl_deadline) * (deadline - t)
+ *
+ * In such way that runtime will be equal to the maximum density
+ * the task can use without breaking any rule.

+ *
+ * When the task is starting a new period, the Original CBS is used. In this
+ * case, the runtime is replenished and a new absolute deadline is set.
+ *
+ * When a task is queued before the begin of the next period, using the
+ * remaining runtime and deadline could make the entity to overflow, see
+ * dl_entity_overflow() to find more about runtime overflow. When such case
+ * is detected, the runtime and deadline need to be updated.
+ *
+ * If the task has an implicit deadline, i.e., deadline == period, the Original
+ * CBS is applied. the runtime is replenished and a new absolute deadline is
+ * set, as in the previous cases.
+ *
+ * However, the Original CBS does not work properly for tasks with
+ * deadline < period, which are said to have a constrained deadline. By
+ * applying the Original CBS, a constrained deadline task would be able to run
+ * runtime/deadline in a period. With deadline < period, the task would
+ * overrun the runtime/period allowed bandwidth, breaking the admission test.
+ *
+ * In order to prevent this misbehave, the Revisited CBS is used for
+ * constrained deadline tasks when a runtime overflow is detected. In the
+ * Revisited CBS, rather than replenishing & setting a new absolute deadline,
+ * the remaining runtime of the task is reduced to avoid runtime overflow.
+ * Please refer to the comments update_dl_revised_wakeup() function to find
