A perf PMU may have two PMU names. For example, Intel Sapphire Rapids
server supports the discovery mechanism. Without the platform-specific
support, an uncore PMU is named by a type ID plus a box ID, e.g.,
uncore_type_0_0, because the real name of the uncore PMU cannot be
retrieved from the discovery table. With the platform-specific support
later, perf has the mapping information from a type ID to a specific
uncore unit. Just like the previous platforms, the uncore PMU is named
by the real PMU name, e.g., uncore_cha_0. The user scripts which work
well with the old numeric name may not work anymore.
Add a new attribute "alias" to indicate the old numeric name. The
following userspace perf tool patch will handle both names. The user
scripts should work properly with the updated perf tool.

+What: /sys/bus/event_source/devices/uncore_*/alias
+Date: June 2021
+KernelVersion: 5.15
+Contact: Linux kernel mailing list <linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description: Read-only. An attribute to describe the alias name of
+ the uncore PMU if an alias exists on some platforms.
+ The 'perf(1)' tool should treat both names the same.
+ They both can be used to access the uncore PMU.
+
+ Example:
+
+ $ cat /sys/devices/uncore_cha_2/alias
+ uncore_type_0_2

ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS()?
Yes, I think we can use it.
I will change it in V3.
Thanks,
