// The SystemClock represents an unsteady, monotonic clock.
//
// The epoch of this clock is unspecified and may not be related to wall time

// SystemClock meets the requirements of C++'s TrivialClock and Pigweed's
// PigweedClock.
//
// SystemClock is compatible with C++'s Clock & TrivialClock including:
//   SystemClock::rep
//   SystemClock::period
//   SystemClock::duration
//   SystemClock::time_point
//   SystemClock::is_steady
//   SystemClock::now()
//
// Example:
//
//   SystemClock::time_point before = SystemClock::now();
//   TakesALongTime();
//   SystemClock::duration time_taken = SystemClock::now() - before;
//   bool took_way_too_long = false;
//   if (time_taken > std::chrono::seconds(42)) {
//     took_way_too_long = true;
//   }
//
// This code is thread & IRQ safe, it may be NMI safe depending on is_nmi_safe.

// An abstract interface representing a SystemClock.
//
// This interface allows decoupling code that uses time from the code that
// creates a point in time. You can use this to your advantage by injecting
// Clocks into interfaces rather than having implementations call
// SystemClock::now() directly. However, this comes at a cost of a vtable per
// implementation and more importantly passing and maintaining references to the
// VirtualSystemCLock for all of the users.
//
// The VirtualSystemClock::RealClock() function returns a reference to the
// real global SystemClock.
//
// Example:
//
//  void DoFoo(VirtualSystemClock& system_clock) {
//    SystemClock::time_point now = clock.now();
//    // ... Code which consumes now.
//  }
//
//  // Production code:
//  DoFoo(VirtualSystemCLock::RealClock);
//
//  // Test code:
//  MockClock test_clock();
//  DoFoo(test_clock);
//
// This interface is thread and IRQ safe.
