We plan to expose performance counters through 2 driver specific ioctls until there's a solution to expose them in a generic way. In order to be able to deprecate those ioctls when this new infrastructure is in place we add an unsafe module parameter that will keep those ioctls hidden unless it's set to true (which also has the effect of tainting the kernel). All unstable ioctl handlers should use panfrost_unstable_ioctl_check() to check whether they're supposed to handle the request or reject it with ENOSYS.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
