 * values should be returned, not the ones currently set, in
 * this case 'get_default' will always be asserted on return;
 * 2) if unasserted on the way in, the current settings are
 * desired and if still unasserted on return, then the info
 * returned reflects the current settings, otherwise if
 * 'get_default' returns asserted, it means that there are no
 * current settings due to other parameters taking precedence,

 * Note that latency = (constraint - computation).
