Yeah, I'm quite pleased with how that code turned out, and I'd be happy to help adapt it for other architectures. The one design handles all the POWER PMUs from POWER4 with multiple layers of event multiplexers feeding an event bus (and some events available through more than one multiplexer) through to the much simpler and more straightforward POWER7.
