Define HighResTimeStamp, HighResTimeDuration, HighResTimeClock (facebook#51254)

hoxyq · facebook-github-bot · commit d883108df267 · 2025-05-12T10:17:16.000-07:00
Summary: Pull Request resolved: facebook#51254 # Changelog: [Internal] Defines single timestamp abstraction that will be used in C++ layer of React Native core: Key primitives include: - `HighResTimeStamp`: A class representing a specific point in time with high precision. - `HighResTimeDuration`: A class representing a duration of time with high precision. - `HighResTimeClock`: A class providing a monotonic clock that won't be adjusted. Right now, all these just encapsulate `std::chrono::steady_clock` with no extra custom logic. We might revisit this in a future, once we decide to add support for [`Performance.timeOrigin`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Performance/timeOrigin). This diff also adds a `README.md` documentation file with a brief summary of the `react/timing` module. Differential Revision: D72796412

+# React Native Timing
+
+[🏠 Home](../../../../../../__docs__/README.md)
+
+This directory contains the shared C++ implementation of high-resolution timing
+primitives for React Native. These primitives provide precise time measurement
+capabilities that align with Web standards while being optimized for the React
+Native environment.
+
+## 🚀 Usage
+
+The timing primitives in this module are primarily used by internal React Native
+systems that require precise time measurements. They are not typically used
+directly by application developers but serve as foundational components for
+various React Native features.
+
+Key primitives include:
+
+- `HighResTimeStamp`: A class representing a specific point in time with high
+  precision.
+- `HighResTimeDuration`: A class representing a duration of time with high
+  precision.
+- `HighResTimeClock`: A class providing a monotonic clock that won't be
+  adjusted.
+
+These primitives support various operations:
+
+```cpp
+// Getting the current high-resolution timestamp
+auto now = HighResTimeClock::now();
+
+// Creating durations
+auto duration = HighResTimeDuration(std::chrono::milliseconds(100));
+
+// Arithmetic operations
+auto later = now + duration;
+auto elapsed = later - now;
+
+// Converting to different time units with high precision
+int64_t nanoseconds = now.toNanoseconds();
+int64_t microseconds = now.toMicroseconds();
+int64_t milliseconds = now.toMilliseconds();
+
+// Converting to DOMHighResTimeStamp (for JavaScript interoperability)
+double jsTimeValue = now.toDOMHighResTimeStamp();
+```
+
+## 📐 Design
+
+The timing primitives are designed to align with Web standards while leveraging
+C++'s type system and the performance characteristics of native code. The
+implementation uses `std::chrono` internally but provides a more specialized
+interface tailored to React Native's needs.
+
+### HighResTimeStamp
+
+This class represents a specific point in time with high precision. It
+encapsulates a `std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point` and provides methods to:
+
+- Convert to `DOMHighResTimeStamp` for JavaScript interoperability.
+- Perform arithmetic operations with durations.
+- Compare with other timestamps.
+
+### HighResTimeDuration
+
+This class represents a duration of time with high precision. It encapsulates a
+`std::chrono::duration` and provides methods to:
+
+- Convert to `DOMHighResTimeStamp` for JavaScript interoperability.
+- Perform arithmetic operations.
+- Compare with other durations.
+
+### HighResTimeClock
+
+This class provides access to a monotonic clock that will never be adjusted.
+It's based on `std::chrono::steady_clock` and ensures consistent time
+measurements even if the system clock is adjusted.
+
+## 🔗 Relationship with other systems
+
+### Used by
+
+- [Event Loop](../../renderer/runtimescheduler/__docs__/README.md): Uses timing
+  primitives for measuring task execution times and scheduling.
+- Web Performance API: Timing primitives are used to implement performance
+  measurement APIs like `PerformanceObserver` entries (e.g., `longtask` and
+  `event`).
+- React Native DevTools: The timing primitives integrate with the React Native
+  DevTools tracing infrastructure to report the timing of tasks and events.
+
+### Related to
+
+- Web timing APIs: The timing primitives are designed to be compatible with Web
+  timing concepts, making it easier to implement Web-compatible APIs in React
+  Native.
