//
// This header file defines a `CycleClock`, which yields the value and frequency
// of a cycle counter that increments at a rate that is approximately constant.
//
// NOTE:
//
// The cycle counter frequency is not necessarily related to the core clock
// frequency and should not be treated as such. That is, `CycleClock` cycles are
// not necessarily "CPU cycles" and code should not rely on that behavior, even
// if experimentally observed.
//
// An arbitrary offset may have been added to the counter at power on.
//
// On some platforms, the rate and offset of the counter may differ
// slightly when read from different CPUs of a multiprocessor. Usually,
// we try to ensure that the operating system adjusts values periodically
// so that values agree approximately. If you need stronger guarantees,
// consider using alternate interfaces.
//
// The CPU is not required to maintain the ordering of a cycle counter read
// with respect to surrounding instructions.
