[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v8 00/13] More fully implement ARM PMUv3

[Aaron Lindsay <aaron@os.amperecomputing.com>]

The ARM PMU implementation currently contains a basic cycle counter, but
it is often useful to gather counts of other events, filter them based
on execution mode, and/or be notified on counter overflow. These patches
flesh out the implementations of various PMU registers including
PM[X]EVCNTR and PM[X]EVTYPER, add a struct definition to represent
arbitrary counter types, implement mode filtering, send interrupts on
counter overflow, and add instruction, cycle, and software increment
events.

Since v7 [1] I have made the following changes:
* Updated pmu_op_start/finish to not be called upon migration under KVM
* Added a patch updating PMCEID* to be 64-bit registers for AArch64 and
  added PMCEID2/3 for AArch32
* Changed get_pmceid() return two full 64-bit register values (since the
  underlying registers are now 64-bit post-ARMv8.1)
* Updated the comment for pmu_op_start/finish to match the
  implementation
* Added a check so the pmu_timer is not freed if it was not originally
  allocated
