Description

  • clocks which give a full date and time (PCLOCK)
  • clocks which give a count of time elapsed since the clock started, guaranteed to always increase (MCLOCK)

These are primarily useful in the context of Mirage projects.

README

README.md

This library implements portable support for an operating system timesource that is compatible with the MirageOS library interfaces found in: https://github.com/mirage/mirage

It implements an MCLOCK module that represents a monotonic timesource since an arbitrary point, and PCLOCK which counts time since the Unix epoch.

The following sources are used:

  • The Unix version uses gettimeofday or clock_gettime, depending on which OS is in use (see clock_stubs.c).

  • The freestanding version uses the paravirtual clock source from the hypervisor.
