Any guest must not get access to any hpmcounter including cycle/instret without any checks. We achieve that by disabling all the bits except TM bit in hcounteren. However, instret and cycle access for guest user space can be enabled upon explicit request (via ONE REG) or on first trap from VU mode to maintain ABI requirement in the future. This patch doesn't support that as ONE REG interface is not settled yet.

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.
