Hi Leo:
I built a new perf with your patches and ran it on a 2-numa node Neoverse platform.
I then ran my simple test that creates reader and writer threads to tug on the same cacheline.
The c2c output is appended below.
The output looks good, especially where you've broken out the (average) cycles for local and remote peer loads.
And I'm glad to see you fixed the "Node" column. I use that a lot to help detect remote node accesses.
And the "PA cnt" field is working as well, which is important to see if numa_balance is moving the data around.

Thanks for doing this. It looks good.
I'll assume someone else is reviewing your code changes.
