* This module provides a way to implement a QoS manager at the
* application level.
*
+ * @note
+ * Please, note that, in order to exploit the feedback-scheduling
+ * functionality of FRESCOR, an application needs to use a set of
+ * different functions:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>the frsh_contract_set_basic_params() and the
+ * frsh_contract_set_reclamation_params() functions are used
+ * to set the dynamic variability range (or options) for the budget;
+ * <li>the frsh_feedback_set_spare() function is used to communicate to
+ * the FMGR module what is the spare virtual resource that is used
+ * to reserve a fraction of resource availability by FMGR-enabled
+ * applications, so to avoid a complete occupation of the system
+ * (this is needed in common cases if one wants to keep a good
+ * performance of the QoS control loops);
+ * such spare vres needs to have been previously negotiated through
+ * the usual functions in the FRSH Core module;
+ * <li>the frsh_feedback_set_desired_budget() function is used to
+ * dynamically fine-tune the budget request for the application,
+ * leaving to the FMGR module the freedom to fulfill the requests
+ * made by all the applications in the system according to global
+ * QoS control goals, as well as to the importance and weight
+ * parameters that may be specified by the applications for individual
+ * virtual resources.
+ * </ul>

+ * and the required budget is higher than the minimum guaranteed
+ * negotiated for the vres, then the FMGR module makes an attempt to
