SBI firmware should report total number of firmware and hardware counters
including unused ones or special ones. In this case the kernel doesn't need
to make any assumptions about gaps in reported counters, e.g. excluded timer
counter. That was fixed in OpenSBI v1.1 by commit 3f66465fb6bf ("lib: pmu:
allow to use the highest available counter"). This kernel patch has no effect
if SBI firmware behaves correctly. However it eliminates access beyond the
allocated pmu_ctr_list if the kernel is used with OpenSBI older than v1.1.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
