Since this is a standard architecture, the +PMUs are managed by a common driver "arm-cs-arch-pmu". This driver describes +the available events and configuration of each PMU in sysfs. Please see the +sections below to get the sysfs path of each PMU. Like other uncore PMU drivers, +the driver provides "cpumask" sysfs attribute to show the CPU id used to handle +the PMU event.
