+/** DEFINITION OF TERMS
+ *
+ * Combined effect - An effect whose force is a superposition of forces
+ *                   generated by all effects that can be added together.
+ *                   Only one combined effect can be playing at a time.
+ *                   Effects that can be added together to create a combined
+ *                   effect are FF_CONSTANT, FF_PERIODIC and FF_RAMP.
+ * Uncombinable effect - An effect that cannot be combined with another effect.
+ *                       All conditional effects - FF_DAMPER, FF_FRICTION,
+ *                       FF_INERTIA and FF_SPRING are uncombinable.
+ *                       Number of uncombinable effects playing simultaneously
+ *                       depends on the capabilities of the hardware.
+ * Rumble effect - An effect generated by device's rumble motors instead of
+ *                 force feedback actuators.
+ *
+ *
+ * HANDLING OF UNCOMBINABLE EFFECTS
+ *
+ * Uncombinable effects cannot be combined together into just one effect, at
+ * least not in a clear and obvious manner. Therefore these effects have to
+ * be handled individually by ff-memless-next. Handling of these effects is
+ * left entirely to the hardware-specific driver, ff-memless-next merely
+ * passes these effects to the hardware-specific driver at appropriate time.
+ * ff-memless-next provides the UPLOAD command to notify the hardware-specific
+ * driver that the userspace is about to request playback of an uncombinable
+ * effect. The hardware-specific driver shall take all steps needed to make
+ * the device ready to play the effect when it receives the UPLOAD command.
+ * The actual playback shall commence when START_UNCOMB command is received.
+ * Opposite to the UPLOAD command is the ERASE command which tells
+ * the hardware-specific driver that the playback has finished and that
+ * the effect will not be restarted. STOP_UNCOMB command tells
+ * the hardware-specific driver that the playback shall stop but the device
+ * shall still be ready to resume the playback immediately.
+ *
+ * In case it is not possible to make the device ready to play an uncombinable
+ * effect (all hardware effect slots are occupied), the hardware-specific
+ * driver may return an error when it receives an UPLOAD command. If the
+ * hardware-specific driver returns 0, the upload is considered successful.
+ * START_UNCOMB and STOP_UNCOMB commands cannot fail and the device must always
+ * start the playback of the requested effect if the UPLOAD command of the
+ * respective effect has been successful. ff-memless-next will never send
+ * a START/STOP_UNCOMB command for an effect that has not been uploaded
+ * successfully, nor will it send an ERASE command for an effect that is
+ * playing (= has been started with START_UNCOMB command).
+ */
