23  * Using a mix of milliseconds and timeval for internal timers is expensive and
24  * overkill, because we don't need such a precision to compute timeouts.
25  * So we're converting them to "ticks".
26  *
27  * A tick is a representation of a date relative to another one, and is
28  * measured in milliseconds. The natural usage is to represent an absolute date
29  * relative to the current date. Since it is not practical to update all values
30  * each time the current date changes, instead we use the absolute date rounded
31  * down to fit in a tick. We then have to compare a tick to the current date to
32  * know whether it is in the future or in the past. If a tick is below the
33  * current date, it is in the past. If it is above, it is in the future. The
34  * values will wrap so we can't compare that easily, instead we check the sign
35  * of the difference between a tick and the current date.
36  *
37  * Proceeding like this allows us to manipulate dates that are stored in
38  * scalars with enough precision and range. For this reason, we store ticks in
39  * 32-bit integers. This is enough to handle dates that are between 24.85 days
40  * in the past and as much in the future.
41  *
42  * We must both support absolute dates (well in fact, dates relative to now+/-
43  * 24 days), and intervals (for timeouts). Both types need an "eternity" magic
44  * value. For optimal code generation, we'll use zero as the magic value
45  * indicating that an expiration timer or a timeout is not set. We have to
46  * check that we don't return this value when adding timeouts to <now>. If a
47  * computation returns 0, we must increase it to 1 (which will push the timeout
48  * 1 ms further). For this reason, timeouts must not be added by hand but via
49  * the dedicated tick_add() function.
