  Interface stucture for the Metronome Architectural Protocol.\r

  @par Protocol Description:\r
  This protocol provides access to a known time source in the platform to the\r
  core.  The core uses this known time source to produce core services that \r
  require calibrated delays.  \r
\r
  @param WaitForTick\r
  Waits for a specified number of ticks from a known time source \r
  in the platform.  The actual time passed between entry of this \r
  function and the first tick is between 0 and TickPeriod 100 nS \r
  units.  If you want to guarantee that at least TickPeriod time \r
  has elapsed, wait for two ticks.\r
\r
  @param TickPeriod\r
  The period of platform's known time source in 100 nS units.  \r
  This value on any platform must be at least 10 uS, and must not \r
  exceed 200 uS.  The value in this field is a constant that must \r
  not be modified after the Metronome architectural protocol is \r
  installed.  All consumers must treat this as a read-only field.\r
