Hi Michael,

If that works, then Brilliant! :-) :-)

Could you please fix this so the _PMC_USER_READ_WRITE_ is all in one place (it’s too dangerous to split up), and put an architecture-specific #ifdef around just the MCR instruction we care about.

With that, its good to commit, I’d say. I’ll likely follow up and exclude the architectures that are unproven.

M
