2 * tracing clocks
3 *
4 * Copyright (C) 2009 Red Hat, Inc., Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com>
5 *
6 * Implements 3 trace clock variants, with differing scalability/precision
7 * tradeoffs:
8 *
9 * - local: CPU-local trace clock
10 * - medium: scalable global clock with some jitter
11 * - global: globally monotonic, serialized clock
12 *
13 * Tracer plugins will chose a default from these clocks.
