The Cell CPU timebase has an erratum. When reading the entire 64 bits of the timebase with one mftb instruction, there is a handful of cycles window during which one might read a value with the low order 32 bits already reset to 0x00000000 but the high order bits not yet incremeted by one. This fixes it by reading the timebase again until the low order 32 bits is no longer 0. That might introduce occasional latencies if hitting mftb just at the wrong time, but no more than 70ns on a cell blade, and that was considered acceptable.
