+ * During the activation, CBS checks if it can reuse the current task's
+ * runtime and period. If the deadline of the task is in the past, CBS
+ * cannot use the runtime, and so it replenishes the task. This rule
+ * works fine for implicit deadline tasks (deadline == period), and the
+ * CBS was designed for implicit deadline tasks. However, a task with
+ * constrained deadline (deadine < period) might be awakened after the
+ * deadline, but before the next period. In this case, replenishing the
+ * task would allow it to run for runtime / deadline. As in this case
+ * deadline < period, CBS enables a task to run for more than the
+ * runtime / period. In a very loaded system, this can cause a domino
+ * effect, making other tasks miss their deadlines.
+ *
+ * To avoid this problem, in the activation of a constrained deadline
+ * task after the deadline but before the next period, throttle the
+ * task and set the replenishing timer to the begin of the next period,
+ * unless it is boosted.
