Honored Contributorsys_timer is the main timer, used for OS scheduling, periodic interrupt, system ticks counting, and so on.
high_res_timer is not mandatory; you may optionally use it in your application for performance measurements. For example you can associate it to the HAL timestamp driver and accurately measure execution times of pieces of code.
