Correct. Same pronlrmd applied to arm64 arch and their cycle counter.
However for a 10GbE link the time budget for a single packet is 67ns
(~14e9 packets/second). So one can't do any accurate performance
measurements with 100MHz timer.
In those cases frequency scaling was usually disabled, 1 thread per core
only and context switches limited to a minimum, so cycle counter was
usable.
Once energy saving awareness kicked in, it wasn't, hence why Armv8.6-A
mandated a 1GHz timer counter. We don't have that in RISC-V, so hence
I'm talking about optionaly exposing CYCLE to U-mode.

As you have mentioned, it already is via FDT. If UEFI ever comes into
picture this will have to either revert back to a register or maybe part
of /proc/cpuinfo.

In general time-measurement scenarios TIME is enough. For high
performance scenarios (see above) 1MHz or even 100MHz is not enough.
Ideal solution would be to have a high-resolution TIME, however on
platforms that don't have it, there will be a need for a work-around and
I expect people will just use custom modules. Same as they did on arm64.

My intention here is just to point out a scenario that will come
eventually. Unless RISC-V spec mandates high-resolution counter or it
becomes a de-facto standard among platform implementers.
