Applied, but two questions: 1) Why didn't you have to deal with the overflow event latching issues I address in sparc_vt_write_pmc()?
I saw the note. I need to understand why you wrote that. Relevant sections of the PRM for the T4 and the M7 have the same wording, so I was surprised to read that. Perhaps a h/w (or h/w revision) quirk?
It was not needed for the M7 -- bare metal or LDOM -- so I opted to go with the purist approach based on the PRM. As I get time and access to hardware I will take a look at the T4.
2) How simple is it to hook up a similar set of support for sparc-m6? It seems like the only PMU type string we won't match after this.
