Probably more Perf/PMU aka performance counters? Which would be 
scriptable via $kernel/tools/perf or directly via perf_event_open(2) and 
read(2).

Note it is not easy to get right and in the i915 implementation (see 
i915_pmu.c) we have a known issue with PCI hot unplug and use after free 
which needs input from perf core folks.
