// 
// This header file defines a `CycleClock`, which yields the value and frequency 
// of a cycle counter that increments at a rate that is approximately constant. 
// 
// NOTE: 
// 
// The cycle counter frequency is not necessarily related to the core clock 
// frequency and should not be treated as such. That is, `CycleClock` cycles are 
// not necessarily "CPU cycles" and code should not rely on that behavior, even 
// if experimentally observed. 
// 
// An arbitrary offset may have been added to the counter at power on. 
// 
// On some platforms, the rate and offset of the counter may differ 
// slightly when read from different CPUs of a multiprocessor. Usually, 
// we try to ensure that the operating system adjusts values periodically 
// so that values agree approximately.   If you need stronger guarantees, 
// consider using alternate interfaces. 
// 
// The CPU is not required to maintain the ordering of a cycle counter read 
// with respect to surrounding instructions.
