3  * tracing clocks

7  * Implements 3 trace clock variants, with differing scalability/precision
8  * tradeoffs:
9  *
10  *  -   local: CPU-local trace clock
11  *  -  medium: scalable global clock with some jitter
12  *  -  global: globally monotonic, serialized clock
13  *
14  * Tracer plugins will chose a default from these clocks.
