-The Freedreno PPS driver needs root access to read system-wide

+The Panfrost PPS driver uses unstable ioctls that behave correctly on
+kernel version `5.4.23+ `__ and
+`5.5.7+ `__.

+To run the producer, follow these two simple steps:
- sudo ./build/src/tool/pps/pps-producer
+1. Enable Panfrost unstable ioctls via kernel parameter:

-Alternatively using the ``CAP_PERFMON`` permission on the binary should work too.
