commit fca7d309eb2ae71f52c7e0808c4ae6a4a7b060df Author: Aaron Durbin adurbin@chromium.org Date: Mon Apr 29 22:31:51 2013 -0500
coreboot: introduce monotonic timer API
The notion of a monotonic timer is introduced. Along with it are helper functions and other types for comparing times. This is just the framework where it is the responsibility of the chipset/board to provide the implementation of timer_monotonic_get().
The reason structs are used instead of native types is to allow for future changes to the data structure without chaning all the call sites.
