Hi James

FEAT_PMUv3_TH (Armv8.8) permits a PMU counter to increment only on
events whose count meets a specified threshold condition. For example if
PMEVTYPERn.TC (Threshold Control) is set to 0b101 (Greater than or
equal, count), and the threshold is set to 2, then the PMU counter will
now only increment by 1 when an event would have previously incremented
the PMU counter by 2 or more on a single processor cycle.
Two new Perf event config fields, 'threshold' and 'threshold_control'
have been added for controlling the feature:
$ perf stat -e stall_slot/threshold=2,threshold_control=5/
A new capability for reading out the maximum supported threshold value
has also been added:
$ cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/armv8_pmuv3/caps/threshold_max
0x000000ff
If a threshold higher than threshold_max is provided, then no error is
generated but the threshold is clamped to the max value. If
FEAT_PMUv3_TH isn't implemented, then threshold_max reads zero, and
neither the 'threshold' nor 'threshold_control' parameters will be used.
The threshold is per PMU counter, and there are potentially different
threshold_max values per PMU type on heterogeneous systems.
Bits higher than 32 now need to be written into PMEVTYPER, so
armv8pmu_write_evtype() has to be updated to take a u64 value rather
than u32.
Is this supported in the Aarch32 state ? If so, do we need to change
the arch specific register read/write "helpers" ?

The perf core doesn't yet support adding aliases for
fields other than "events". May be we could add
some support for that in the future and use it
to provide meaningful aliases for the threshold
control.
Not sure if we can extrapolate threshold_control[0]
to be another config field => "counting_mode"
We would need to check with the architecture folks
to confirm that the meaning wouldn't change though.
