The ARM Cortex-A7 cores used in the Allwinner R40 SoC have their usual Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU), which allows perf to use hardware events. The SoC integrator just needs to connect each per-core interrupt line to the GIC. The R40 manual does not really mention those IRQ lines, but experimentation in U-Boot shows that interrupts 152-155 are connected to the four cores (similar to the A20). Tested on a Bananapi M2 Berry, with perf and taskset to confirm the association between cores and interrupts.
