This looks like a 1:1 wrapper for a Linux kernel feature.
Does Windows or BSD offer something similar?

Furthermore, any high-res timing should use nanoseconds, not microseconds or milliseconds.
I realize that the Linux kernel only uses microseconds for these APIs, but the DPDK API should use nanoseconds.
