Monotonic time spans
The type for non-negative monotonic time spans. They represent the difference between two monotonic clock readings. If the platform's clock has nanosecond resolution the representation guarantees that the function Mtime_clock.elapsed can measure up to approximatively 584 Julian year spans before silently rolling over (unlikely since this is in a single program run).
Monotonic time spans.
Monotonic timestamps
Note. Only use timestamps if you need inter-process time correlation, otherwise prefer Mtime_clock.elapsed and counters.
The type for monotonic timestamps relative to an indeterminate system-wide event (e.g. last startup). Their absolute value has no meaning but can be used for inter-process time correlation.
to_uint64_ns t is t as an unsigned 64-bit integer nanosecond timestamp. The absolute value is meaningless.
to_uint64_ns t is t is an unsigned 64-bit integer nanosecond timestamp as a timestamp.
Warning. Timestamps returned by this function should only be used with other timestamp values that are know to come from the same operating system run.
Predicates
Arithmetic
span t t' is the span between t and t' regardless of the order between t and t'.
add_span t s is the timestamp s units later than t or None if the result overflows.
sub_span t s is the timestamp s units earlier than t or None if the result underflows.
Formatting
pp formats t as an unsigned 64-bit integer nanosecond timestamp. Note that the absolute value is meaningless.
dump ppf t formats an unspecified raw representation of t on ppf.
