Figure out consistent story with millisecond and microsecond resolution for time management in the server

    • Type: Icon: Task Task
    • Resolution: Unresolved
    • Priority: Icon: Major - P3 Major - P3
    • None
    • Affects Version/s: None
    • Component/s: None
    • Server Programmability

      We play it pretty fast and loose with mixing microseconds with Date_t, the latter of which only has a millisecond resolution. We need to figure out roughly:

      • Consistent and clear APIs for microsecond and millisecond time management and tracking.
      • What we expect for modules we own (Timer, ClockSource, etc)
      • What resolution feature teams want and need for their use case.

      This effort seems like somewhere between a couple tickets and a small project.

      Can fill in references later, filing this as a reminder first.
