Hi Atish,
Thank you for your reply and explanations. However, I still felt a
little confused about the current implementation.
IIUC, according to your descriptions, if the select value is composed
of value and bitmap, users should set the corresponding bits of the
select mask to 1 to indicate these bits encoded by a value. For
example, if the mhpmevent3 can support the raw event 0xffff01, whose
bit[0:8] is encoded by a value, and bit[9:63] is encoded by a bit map.
In this case, the corresponding dts node for it will be <0 0xffff01
0x0 0xff 0x8>.

Now, users want to find a mhpmevent which can support the raw event
0x3f01. The mhpmevent3 definitely can satisfy the user's requirements.
However, the pmu_ctr_find_hw() will not pick up the mhpmevent3 because
the if (temp->select != (data & select_mask)) condition will be true.
Therefore, it will execute the continue to skip mhpmevent3.

    for (i = 0; i < num_hw_events; i++) {
        ....
        if (event_idx == SBI_PMU_EVENT_RAW_IDX) {
            uint64_t select_mask = temp->select_mask;
            ...
            if (temp->select != (data & select_mask))
            // The temp->select is 0xffff01, the data is 0x3f01 and
the select_mask is 0xff. Therefore, the value in the if condition will
be if(0xffff01 != (0x3f01 & 0xff))
                continue;
        }


I believe my v2 patch has the same definition of the select and
select_mask as your v4 patch. The following is my implementation in my
v2 patch,
    for (i = 0; i < num_hw_events; i++) {
        ....
        if (event_idx == SBI_PMU_EVENT_RAW_IDX) {
            uint64_t select_mask = temp->select_mask;

            if ((temp->select & select_mask) != (data & select_mask))
                 continue;
            else if ((temp->select & ~select_mask & data) !=
(~select_mask & data))
                 continue;
         }
when addressing the above example, the first condition will be false because
if ((0xffff01 & 0xff) != (0x3f01 & 0xff)). Them the second condition
will be false as well because if ((0xffff01 & 0xffffffffffffffff00 &
0x3f01) != (0x3f01 & 0xffffffffffffffff00)). Therefore, the mhpmevent3
will be chosen.

Hope I don't misunderstand your means. If you want to review the
related implementations in my v2 patch, the link to it is here
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/opensbi/2021-November/002110.html.
Thank you!
