/*
** Support routines for the timer wheel
**
** This code contains two strategies for dealing with 
** date/time changes in the system. 
** If the system has some kind of high resolution timer (HAVE_GETHRTIME),
** the high resolution timer is used to correct the time-of-day and the
** timeouts, the base source is the hrtimer, but at certain intervals the 
** OS time-of-day is checked and if it is not within certain bounds, the 
** delivered time gets slowly adjusted for each call until
** it corresponds to the system time (built-in adjtime...). 
** The call gethrtime() is detected by autoconf on Unix, but other 
** platforms may define it in erl_*_sys.h and implement 
** their own high resolution timer. The high resolution timer
** strategy is (probably) best on all systems where the timer have 
** a resolution higher or equal to gettimeofday (or what's implemented
** is sys_gettimeofday()). The actual resolution is the interesting thing,
** not the unit's thats used (i.e. on VxWorks, nanoseconds can be
** retrieved in terms of units, but the actual resolution is the same as 
** for the clock ticks).
** If the systems best timer routine is kernel ticks returned from 
** sys_times(), and the actual resolution of sys_gettimeofday() is
** better (like most unixes that does not have any realtime extensions), 
** another strategy is used. The tolerant gettimeofday() corrects 
** the value with respect to uptime (sys_times() return value) and checks 
** for correction both when delivering timeticks and delivering nowtime.
** this strategy is slower, but accurate on systems without better timer 
** routines. The kernel tick resolution is not enough to implement
** a gethrtime routine. On Linux and other non solaris unix-boxes the second 
** strategy is used, on all other platforms we use the first.
** 
** The following is expected (from sys.[ch] and erl_*_sys.h):
**
** 64 bit integers. So it is, and so it will be.
**
** sys_init_time(), will return the clock resolution in MS and
** that's about it. More could be added of course
** If the clock-rate is constant (i.e. 1 ms) one can define 
** SYS_CLOCK_RESOLUTION (to 1),
** which makes erts_deliver_time/erts_time_remaining a bit faster.
**
** if HAVE_GETHRTIME is defined:
**    sys_gethrtime() will return a SysHrTime (long long) representing 
**    nanoseconds, sys_init_hrtime() will do any initialization.
** else
**    a long (64bit) integer type called Sint64 should be defined.
**
** sys_times() will return clock_ticks since start and 
**    fill in a SysTimes structure (struct tms). Instead of CLK_TCK, 
**    SYS_CLK_TCK is used to determine the resolution of kernel ticks.
**
** sys_gettimeofday() will take a SysTimeval (a struct timeval) as parameter
**    and fill it in as gettimeofday(X,NULL).
