/*
 * Each thread keeps several time representations in its thread local
 * storage:
 *   the monotonic time in nanoseconds since unspecified point in the past,
 *   the real time in seconds and nanoseconds since the Epoch,
 *   the local time and GMT time structs,
 *   and various user-defined text representations of local and GMT times.
 *
 * The monotonic time is used mainly by engine timers and is updated after
 * a kernel operation which can block for unpredictable duration like event
 * polling.  Besides getting the monotonic time is generally faster than
 * getting the real time, so the monotonic time is also used for milestones
 * to update cached real time seconds and, if debug log enabled, milliseconds.
 * As a result, the cached real time is updated at most one time per second
 * or millisecond respectively.  If there is a signal event support or in
 * multi-threaded mode, then the cached real time and local time structs
 * are updated only on demand.  In single-threaded mode without the signal
 * event support the cached real and local time are updated synchronously
 * with the monotonic time update.  GMT time structs and text representations
 * are always updated only on demand.
