+ * This module defines the interface for the Benchmark Timer Driver.
+ *
+ * The following methods in this module must be provided by each BSP:
+ *
+ *   - benchmark_timer_initialize
+ *   - benchmark_timer_read
+ *   - benchmark_timer_disable_subtracting_average_overhead
+ *
+ * The units measured are BSP specific but should be at the highest
+ * granularity possible.
+ *
+ * The Benchmark Timer may use the same hardware as the Clock Driver.
+ * No RTEMS Timing Tests will use both drivers at the same time.
