//! # Running Average Utilities
//!
//! Rust userland utilities to access running averages tracked by BPF
//! ravg_data. See
//! [ravg.bpf.h](https://github.com/sched-ext/scx/blob/main/scheds/include/scx/ravg.bpf.h)
//! and
//! [ravg_impl.bpf.h](https://github.com/sched-ext/scx/blob/main/scheds/include/scx/ravg_impl.bpf.h)
//! for details.

/// Read the current running average
///
/// Read the running average value at `@now` of ravg_data (`@val`,
/// `@val_at`, `@old`, `@cur`) given `@half_life` and `@frac_bits`. This is
/// equivalent to C `ravg_read()`.
///
/// There currently is no way to make `bindgen` and `libbpf_cargo` generated
/// code to use a pre-existing type, so this function takes each field of
/// struct ravg_data as a separate argument. This works but is ugly and
/// error-prone. Something to improve in the future.
