+ * perfmon_syscalls.c: perfmon2 system call interface
+ *
+ * This file implements the perfmon2 interface which
+ * provides access to the hardware performance counters
+ * of the host processor.
+ *
+ * The initial version of perfmon.c was written by
+ * Ganesh Venkitachalam, IBM Corp.
+ *
+ * Then it was modified for perfmon-1.x by Stephane Eranian and
+ * David Mosberger, Hewlett Packard Co.
+ *
+ * Version Perfmon-2.x is a complete rewrite of perfmon-1.x
+ * by Stephane Eranian, Hewlett Packard Co.

+ * Context locking rules:
+ * ---------------------
+ * 	- any thread with access to the file descriptor of a context can
+ * 	  potentially issue perfmon calls
+ *
+ * 	- calls must be serialized to guarantee correctness
+ *
+ * 	- as soon as a context is attached to a thread or CPU, it may be
+ * 	  actively monitoring. On some architectures, such as IA-64, this
+ * 	  is true even though the pfm_start() call has not been made. This
+ * 	  comes from the fact that on some architectures, it is possible to
+ * 	  start/stop monitoring from userland.
+ *
+ *	- If monitoring is active, then there can PMU interrupts. Because
+ *	  context accesses must be serialized, the perfmon system calls
+ *	  must mask interrupts as soon as the context is attached.
+ *
+ *	- perfmon system calls that operate with the context unloaded cannot
+ *	  assume it is actually unloaded when they are called. They first need
+ *	  to check and for that they need interrupts masked. Then, if the
+ *	  context is actually unloaded, they can unmask interrupts.
+ *
+ *	- interrupt masking holds true for other internal perfmon functions as
+ *	  well. Except for PMU interrupt handler because those interrupts
+ *	  cannot be nested.
+ *
+ * 	- we mask ALL interrupts instead of just the PMU interrupt because we
+ * 	  also need to protect against timer interrupts which could trigger
+ * 	  a set switch.
