+ * Notes on internal configuration of ESCR+CCCR tuples
+ *
+ * Since P4 has quite the different architecture of
+ * performance registers in compare with "architectural"
+ * once and we have on 64 bits to keep configuration
+ * of performance event, the following trick is used.
+ *
+ * 1) Since both ESCR and CCCR registers have only low
+ * 32 bits valuable, we pack them into a single 64 bit
+ * configuration. Low 32 bits of such config correspond
+ * to low 32 bits of CCCR register and high 32 bits
+ * correspond to low 32 bits of ESCR register.
+ *
+ * 2) The meaning of every bit of such config field can
+ * be found in Intel SDM but it should be noted that
+ * we "borrow" some reserved bits for own usage and
+ * clean them or set to a proper value when we do
+ * a real write to hardware registers.
+ *
+ * 3) The format of bits of config is the following
+ * and should be either 0 or set to some predefined
+ * values:
+ *
+ * Low 32 bits
+ * -----------
+ * 0-6: P4_PEBS_METRIC enum
+ * 7-11: reserved
+ * 12: reserved (Enable)
+ * 13-15: reserved (ESCR select)
+ * 16-17: Active Thread
+ * 18: Compare
+ * 19: Complement
+ * 20-23: Threshold
+ * 24: Edge
+ * 25: reserved (FORCE_OVF)
+ * 26: reserved (OVF_PMI_T0)
+ * 27: reserved (OVF_PMI_T1)
+ * 28-29: reserved
+ * 30: reserved (Cascade)
+ * 31: reserved (OVF)
+ *
+ * High 32 bits
+ * ------------
+ * 0: reserved (T1_USR)
+ * 1: reserved (T1_OS)
+ * 2: reserved (T0_USR)
