Good point. Will do this.

Yes, I'll add fixed uncore counter and possibly also the uncore
address/opcode match thing.

Could you explain a bit more? What's the encoding for UNC_CPU_CLK?

Yes, will do this.

Do you see some potential problem with this model?

And do you have some ideas about the issue I mentioned in PATCH 0/3?
Copy it here.

4. Issues

How to eliminate the duplicate counter values accumulated by multi child
processes on the same socket?

perf stat -e ru0101 -- make -j4

Assume the 4 "make" child processes are running on the same socket and
counting uncore raw event "0101", and the counter value read by them are
val0, val1, val2, val3.

Then the final counter result given by "perf stat" will be "val0 + val1
+ val2 + val3".

But this is obvious wrong, because the uncore counter is shared by all
cores in the socket, so the final result should not be accumulated.

Many thanks,
Lin Ming
