[PATCH v1 0/4] perf: Fix uncore metric issue

[Jin Yao]

Some uncore metrics don't work as expected. For example, on cascadelakex,

root@lkp-csl-2sp2:~# perf stat -M UNC_M_PMM_BANDWIDTH.TOTAL -a -- sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

           1841092      unc_m_pmm_rpq_inserts
           3680816      unc_m_pmm_wpq_inserts

       1.001775055 seconds time elapsed

root@lkp-csl-2sp2:~# perf stat -M UNC_M_PMM_READ_LATENCY -a -- sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

         860649746      unc_m_pmm_rpq_occupancy.all
           1840557      unc_m_pmm_rpq_inserts
       12790627455      unc_m_clockticks

       1.001773348 seconds time elapsed

No metrics 'UNC_M_PMM_BANDWIDTH.TOTAL' or 'UNC_M_PMM_READ_LATENCY' are
reported.

The issue is, the case of an alias expanding to mulitple events is
not supported, typically the uncore events.
(see comments in find_evsel_group()). For detail, please check the
description in patch 'perf util: Support multiple events for metricgroup'.

With this patch set,

root@lkp-csl-2sp2:~# perf stat -M UNC_M_PMM_BANDWIDTH.TOTAL -a -- sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

           1842108      unc_m_pmm_rpq_inserts     #    337.2 MB/sec  UNC_M_PMM_BANDWIDTH.TOTAL
           3682209      unc_m_pmm_wpq_inserts

       1.001819706 seconds time elapsed

root@lkp-csl-2sp2:~# perf stat -M UNC_M_PMM_READ_LATENCY -a -- sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

         861970685      unc_m_pmm_rpq_occupancy.all #    219.4 ns  UNC_M_PMM_READ_LATENCY
           1842772      unc_m_pmm_rpq_inserts
       12790196356      unc_m_clockticks

       1.001749103 seconds time elapsed

Now we can see the correct metrics 'UNC_M_PMM_BANDWIDTH.TOTAL' and
'UNC_M_PMM_READ_LATENCY'.
