min_gate_len[tc] is supposed to track the shortest interval of
continuously open gates for a traffic class. For example, in the
following case:
TC 76543210
t0 00000001b 200000 ns
t1 00000010b 200000 ns
min_gate_len[0] and min_gate_len[1] should be 200000, while
min_gate_len[2-7] should be 0.
However what happens is that min_gate_len[0] is 200000, but
min_gate_len[1] ends up being 0 (despite gate_len[1] being 200000 at the
point where the logic detects the gate close event for TC 1).
The problem is that the code considers a "gate close" event whenever it
sees that there is a 0 for that TC (essentially it's level rather than
edge triggered). By doing that, any time a gate is seen as closed
without having been open prior, gate_len, which is 0, will be written
into min_gate_len. Once min_gate_len becomes 0, it's impossible for it
to track anything higher than that (the length of actually open
intervals).
To fix this, we make the writing to min_gate_len[tc] be edge-triggered,
which avoids writes for gates that are closed in consecutive intervals.
However what this does is it makes us need to special-case the
permanently closed gates at the end.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
