+If the platform port uses the Activity Monitor Unit, the following constants
+may be defined:
+
+- **PLAT\_AMU\_GROUP1\_COUNTERS\_MASK**
+ This mask reflects the set of group counters that should be enabled. The
+ maximum number of group 1 counters supported by AMUv1 is 16 so the mask
+ can be at most 0xffff. If the platform does not define this mask, no group 1
+ counters are enabled. If the platform defines this mask, the following
+ constant needs to also be defined.
+
+- **PLAT\_AMU\_GROUP1\_NR\_COUNTERS**
+ This value is used to allocate an array to save and restore the counters
+ specified by ``PLAT_AMU_GROUP1_COUNTERS_MASK`` on CPU suspend.
+ This value should be equal to the highest bit position set in the
+ mask, plus 1. The maximum number of group 1 counters in AMUv1 is 16.
