2. Since AMD IOMMU PMU does not support interrupt mode, the logic

    counter value.

This relies on the hardware counter being the full 64bit wide, is it?


The HW counter value is 48-bit. Not sure why it needs to be 64-bit?
I might be missing some points here? Could you please describe?

Thanks,
