+/** @page pg_vgsvc_timesync VBoxService - The Time Sync Service
+ *
+ * The time sync subservice synchronizes the guest OS walltime with the host.
+ *
+ * The time sync service plays along with the Time Manager (TM) in the VMM
+ * to keep the guest time accurate using the host machine as a reference.
+ * Communication is facilitated by VMMDev. TM will try its best to make sure
+ * all timer ticks get delivered so that there isn't normally any need to
+ * adjust the guest time.
+ *
+ * There are three normal (= acceptable) cases:
+ * -# When the service starts up. This is because ticks and such might
+ * be lost during VM and OS startup. (Need to figure out exactly why!)
+ * -# When the TM is unable to deliver all the ticks and swallows a
+ * backlog of ticks. The threshold for this is configurable with
+ * a default of 60 seconds.
+ * -# The time is adjusted on the host. This can be caused manually by
+ * the user or by some time sync daemon (NTP, LAN server, etc.).
+ *
+ * There are a number of very odd case where adjusting is needed. Here
+ * are some of them:
+ * -# Timer device emulation inaccuracies (like rounding).
+ * -# Inaccuracies in time source VirtualBox uses.
+ * -# The Guest and/or Host OS doesn't perform proper time keeping. This
+ * can come about as a result of OS and/or hardware issues.
+ *
+ * The TM is our source for the host time and will make adjustments for
+ * current timer delivery lag. The simplistic approach taken by TM is to
+ * adjust the host time by the current guest timer delivery lag, meaning that
+ * if the guest is behind 1 second with PIT/RTC/++ ticks, this should be
+ * reflected in the guest wall time as well.
+ *
+ * Now, there is any amount of trouble we can cause by changing the time.
+ * Most applications probably use the wall time when they need to measure
+ * things. A walltime that is being juggled about every so often, even if just
+ * a little bit, could occasionally upset these measurements by for instance
+ * yielding negative results.
+ *
+ * This bottom line here is that the time sync service isn't really supposed
+ * to do anything and will try avoid having to do anything when possible.
+ *
+ * The implementation uses the latency it takes to query host time as the
+ * absolute maximum precision to avoid messing up under timer tick catchup
+ * and/or heavy host/guest load. (Rationale is that a *lot* of stuff may
+ * happen on our way back from ring-3 and TM/VMMDev since we're taking the
+ * route thru the inner EM loop with its force flag processing.)
+ *
+ * But this latency has to be measured from our perspective, which means it
+ * could just as easily come out as 0. (OS/2 and Windows guests only update
+ * the current time when the timer ticks for instance.) The good thing is
+ * that this isn't really a problem since we won't ever do anything unless
+ * the drift is noticeable.
+ *
+ * It now boils down to these three (configuration) factors:
+ * -# g_cMsTimeSyncMinAdjust - The minimum drift we will ever bother with.
+ * -# g_TimeSyncLatencyFactor - The factor we multiply the latency by to
+ * calculate the dynamic minimum adjust factor.
+ * -# g_cMsTimeSyncMaxLatency - When to start discarding the data as utterly
+ * useless and take a rest (someone is too busy to give us good data).
+ * -# g_TimeSyncSetThreshold - The threshold at which we will just set the time
+ * instead of trying to adjust it (milliseconds).
