+ * The hangcheck-timer driver uses the TSC to catch delays that
+ * jiffies does not notice. A timer is set. When the timer fires, it
+ * checks whether it was delayed and if that delay exceeds a given
+ * margin of error. The hangcheck_tick module paramter takes the timer
+ * duration in seconds. The hangcheck_margin parameter defines the
+ * margin of error, in seconds. The defaults are 60 seconds for the
+ * timer and 180 seconds for the margin of error. IOW, a timer is set
+ * for 60 seconds. When the timer fires, the callback checks the
+ * actual duration that the timer waited. If the duration exceeds the
+ * alloted time and margin (here 60 + 180, or 240 seconds), the machine
+ * is restarted. A healthy machine will have the duration match the
+ * expected timeout very closely.
