/*
* Using a mix of milliseconds and timeval for internal timers is expensive and
* overkill, because we don't need such a precision to compute timeouts.
* So we're converting them to "ticks".
*
* A tick is a representation of a date relative to another one, and is
* measured in milliseconds. The natural usage is to represent an absolute date
* relative to the current date. Since it is not practical to update all values
* each time the current date changes, instead we use the absolute date rounded
* down to fit in a tick. We then have to compare a tick to the current date to
* know whether it is in the future or in the past. If a tick is below the
* current date, it is in the past. If it is above, it is in the future. The
* values will wrap so we can't compare that easily, instead we check the sign
* of the difference between a tick and the current date.
*
* Proceeding like this allows us to manipulate dates that are stored in
* scalars with enough precision and range. For this reason, we store ticks in
* 32-bit integers. This is enough to handle dates that are between 24.85 days
* in the past and as much in the future.
*
* We must both support absolute dates (well in fact, dates relative to now+/-
* 24 days), and intervals (for timeouts). Both types need an "eternity" magic
* value. For optimal code generation, we'll use zero as the magic value
* indicating that an expiration timer or a timeout is not set. We have to
* check that we don't return this value when adding timeouts to <now>. If a
* computation returns 0, we must increase it to 1 (which will push the timeout
* 1 ms further). For this reason, timeouts must not be added by hand but via
* the dedicated tick_add() function.
