1005# find_goal() and its helper do_find_goal() are used to find the best
1006# combination of interrupts in order to generate a load that is as close
1007# as possible to a goal load without falling below that goal. Before returning
1008# to its caller, find_goal() sets a new value in the hash of each interrupt,
1009# {goal}, which if set signifies that this interrupt is one of the interrupts
1010# identified as part of the set of interrupts which best meet the goal.
1011#
1012# The arguments to find_goal are a list of ivecs (hash references), sorted
1013# by descending {time}, and the goal load. The goal is relative to {time}.
1014# The best fit is determined by performing a depth-first search. do_find_goal
1015# is the recursive subroutine which carries out the search.
1016#
1017# It is passed an index as an argument, originally 0. On a given invocation,
1018# it is only to consider interrupts in the ivecs array starting at that index.
1019# It then considers two possibilities:
1020#   1) What is the best goal-fit if I include ivecs[index]?
1021#   2) What is the best goal-fit if I exclude ivecs[index]?
1022# To determine case 1, it subtracts the load of ivecs[index] from the goal,
1023# and calls itself recursively with that new goal and index++.
1024# To determine case 2, it calls itself recursively with the same goal and
1025# index++.
1026#
1027# It then compares the two results, decide which one best meets the goals,
1028# and returns the result. The return value is the best-fit's interrupt load,
1029# followed by a list of all the interrupts which make up that best-fit.
1030#
1031# As an optimization, a second array loads[] is created which mirrors ivecs[].
1032# loads[i] will equal the total loads of all ivecs[i..$#ivecs]. This is used
1033# by do_find_goal to avoid recursing all the way to the end of the ivecs
1034# array if including all remaining interrupts will still leave the best-fit
1035# at below goal load. If so, it then includes all remaining interrupts on
1036# the goal list and returns.
