In order to prevent overconsumption of resources on the remote side QRTR implements a flow control mechanism. The mechanism works by the sender keeping track of the number of outstanding unconfirmed messages that has been transmitted to a particular node/port pair. Upon count reaching a low watermark (L) the confirm_rx bit is set in the outgoing message and when the count reaching a high watermark (H) transmission will be blocked upon the reception of a resume_tx message from the remote, that resets the counter to 0. This guarantees that there will be at most 2H - L messages in flight. Values chosen for L and H are 5 and 10 respectively.

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.
