Shouldn't this depend on PMCR.LC as well? If PMCR.LC is clear we only
want the lower 32bits of the cycle counter.

Yes that's correct. The hunk should look like this:

-       return counter & pmc->bitmask;
+       if (!(select_idx == ARMV8_PMU_CYCLE_IDX &&
+             __vcpu_sys_reg(vcpu, PMCR_EL0) & ARMV8_PMU_PMCR_LC))
+               counter = lower_32_bits(counter);
+
+       return counter;

May be you could add a macro :

#define vcpu_pmu_counter_is_64bit(vcpu, idx) ?

Yes I think a helper would be useful - though I'd prefer the name
'kvm_pmu_idx_is_long_cycle_counter'. This seems a little clearer as
you could otherwise argue that a chained counter is also 64 bits.

When you get to add 64bit PMU counter (v8.5), this would be handy. So
having it de-coupled from the cycle counter may be a good idea. Anyways,
I leave that to you.

Cheers
Suzuki
