  1. The time stamp counter (TSC) is a hardware feature found on a number of contemporary processors. The TSC is a special register which is simply incremented every clock cycle. Since the clock is the fundamental unit of time as seen by the processor, the TSC provides the highest-resolution timing information available for that processor.
    The Timestamp Counter is a 64-bit internal register which is present in all Intel processors after the Pentium. It stores the number of cycles executed by the CPU after the latest reset. The time-stamp counter can be read by software using the RDTSC instruction. It was a precise method of getting a high-resolution measure of the passage of time.

    The Time Stamp Counter ( TSC) is a 64-bit register present on all x86 processors since the Pentium. It counts the number of cycles since reset. The instruction RDTSC returns the TSC in EDX:EAX. In x86-64 mode, RDTSC also clears the higher 32 bits of RAX and RDX. Its opcode is 0F 31.

    The time-stamp counter keeps an accurate count of every cycle that occurs on the processor. The Intel time-stamp counter is a 64-bit MSR (model specific register) that is incremented every clock cycle. On reset, the time-stamp counter is set to zero. To access this counter, programmers can use the RDTSC (read time-stamp counter) instruction.

    As Peter Cordes mentioned in a comment (Aug 2018), on most current x86-64 architectures the Time Stamp Counter (accessed by the RDTSC instruction and __rdtsc () function declared in <x86intrin.h>) counts reference clock cycles, not CPU clock cycles.
    The time-stamp counter can be read by software using the RDTSC instruction. It was a precise method of getting a high-resolution measure of the passage of time. But on hyper-threading and multi-core systems, user-level software cannot rely on it as the time-stamp counters of all the CPUs in the system may or may not be synchronized.
    wiki.osdev.org
    The processor resets the time-stamp counter MSR to 0 whenever it is reset (on processors that support the Intel 64 architecture, the high-order 32 bits of each of RAX and RDX are cleared). The processor monotonically increments the time-stamp counter MSR every clock cycle.
