1 /** @file 2 Produces the Metronome Architectural Protocol on top of Timer Library. 3 4 This is a generic implementation of the Metronome Architectural Protocol that 5 layers on top of an instance of the Timer Library. The Timer Library provides 6 functions for nanosecond and microsecond delays. This generic implementation 7 produces a fixed TickPeriod of 1 100ns unit, and when the WaitForTick() service 8 is called, the number of ticks passed in is converted to either nanosecond or 9 microsecond units. If the number of ticks is small, then nanoseconds are used. 10 If the number of ticks is large, then microseconds are used. This prevents 11 overflows that could occur for long delays if only nanoseconds were used and also 12 provides the greatest accuracy for small delays. 13 14 Copyright (c) 2008, Intel Corporation.

If TickNumber of 46 ticks are detected, then EFI_SUCCESS is returned. The actual time passed 47 between entry of this function and the first tick is between 0 and 48 TickPeriod 100 nS units.

Depending on the hardware source for the ticks, it 53 is possible for a tick to be missed. This function cannot guarantee that 54 ticks will not be missed.
