This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1288][rfc] which adds two new unstable
types to the `std::time` module. The `Instant` type is used to represent
measurements of a monotonically increasing clock suitable for measuring time
withing a process for operations such as benchmarks or just the elapsed time to
do something. An `Instant` favors panicking when bugs are found as the bugs are
programmer errors rather than typical errors that can be encountered.

The `SystemTime` type is used to represent a system timestamp and is not
monotonic. Very few guarantees are provided about this measurement of the system
clock, but a fixed point in time (`UNIX_EPOCH`) is provided to learn about the
relative distance from this point for any particular time stamp.
This PR takes the same implementation strategy as the `time` crate on crates.io,
namely:
| Platform | Instant | SystemTime |
|------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|
| Windows | QueryPerformanceCounter | GetSystemTimeAsFileTime |
| OSX | mach_absolute_time | gettimeofday |
| Unix | CLOCK_MONOTONIC | CLOCK_REALTIME |
These implementations can perhaps be refined over time, but they currently
satisfy the requirements of the `Instant` and `SystemTime` types while also
being portable across implementations and revisions of each platform.
* Delete `sys::unix::{c, sync}` as these are now all folded into libc itself
* Update all references to use `libc` as a result.
* Update all references to the new flat namespace.
* Moves all windows bindings into sys::c
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1040][rfc] which is a redesign of the
currently-unstable `Duration` type. The API of the type has been scaled back to
be more conservative and it also no longer supports negative durations.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1040-duration-reform.md
The inner `duration` module of the `time` module has now been hidden (as
`Duration` is reexported) and the feature name for this type has changed from
`std_misc` to `duration`. All APIs accepting durations have also been audited to
take a more flavorful feature name instead of `std_misc`.
Closes#24874
This commit modifies the standard library and its dependencies to link correctly
when built against MUSL. This primarily ensures that the right libraries are
linked against and when they're linked against they're linked against
statically.
**The implementation is a direct adaptation of libcxx's
condition_variable implementation.**
pthread_cond_timedwait uses the non-monotonic system clock. It's
possible to change the clock to a monotonic via pthread_cond_attr, but
this is incompatible with static initialization. To deal with this, we
calculate the timeout using the system clock, and maintain a separate
record of the start and end times with a monotonic clock to be used for
calculation of the return value.
