At present ARMv8 event counters are limited to 32-bits, though by using the CHAIN event it's possible to combine adjacent counters to achieve 64-bits. The perf config1:0 bit can be set to use such a configuration. With the introduction of ARMv8.5-PMU support, all event counters can now be used as 64-bit counters. Let's enable 64-bit event counters where support exists. Unless the user sets config1:0 we will adjust the counter value such that it overflows upon 32-bit overflow. This follows the same behaviour as the cycle counter which has always been (and remains) 64-bits. Signed-off-by: Andrew Murray <andrew.murray@xxxxxxx>
