/*
 * Utility code which helps transforming between two different time
 * bases, called "source" and "target" time in this code.
 *
 * Source time has to be provided via the timecounter API while target
 * time is accessed via a function callback whose prototype
 * intentionally matches ktime_get() and ktime_get_real(). These
 * interfaces where chosen like this so that the code serves its
 * initial purpose without additional glue code.
 *
 * This purpose is synchronizing a hardware clock in a NIC with system
 * time, in order to implement the Precision Time Protocol (PTP,
 * IEEE1588) with more accurate hardware assisted time stamping.  In
 * that context only synchronization against system time (=
 * ktime_get_real()) is currently needed. But this utility code might
 * become useful in other situations, which is why it was written as
 * general purpose utility code.
 *
 * The source timecounter is assumed to return monotonically
 * increasing time (but this code does its best to compensate if that
 * is not the case) whereas target time may jump.
 *
 * The target time corresponding to a source time is determined by
 * reading target time, reading source time, reading target time
 * again, then assuming that average target time corresponds to source
 * time. In other words, the assumption is that reading the source
 * time is slow and involves equal time for sending the request and
 * receiving the reply, whereas reading target time is assumed to be
 * fast.
