granularity of gettimeofday()

[Zhiui Zhang]

The manual says the granularity of gettimeofday() is hardware dependent.
The time may be updated continuously or in clock ticks.  Can anyone
explain for me the two different ways of updating the time?  What kind of
hardware can help?

Thanks for your help.
