Hi John,
Hardware counter and ext_counter work together for bandwidth, latency,
bus utilization and buffer occupancy events. For example, for latency
events(idx = 0x10), counter counts total delay cycles and ext_counter
counts PCIe packets number.
As we don't want PMU driver to process these two data, "delay cycles"
can be treated as an event(id = 0x10), "packets number" as another event
(id = 0x10 << 8), and driver could export these data separately.
if the user want to calculate latency of rx memory read, they should:
./perf stat -v -e '{hisi_pcieX/event=0x10,
subevent=0x01/,hisi_pcieX/event=0x0400, subevent=0x01/
and for bandwidth event:
./perf stat -v -e '{hisi_pcieX/event=0x4,
subevent=0x02/,hisi_pcieX/event=0x1000, subevent=0x02/
Then the value in HISI_PCIE_CNT and HISI_PCIE_EXT_CNT returned
separately, and userspace could do the calculation.

Qi
