Stephane, I think I'll start with a subset of the counters. I only need m-box at this moment. Do you have any suggestions on where to start? Any documents or example code?
Frankly speaking, I googled around, but I still don't know which system call I should make to pass an event name like "uncore_mbox_0/inc_sel=0xa,pld=0x0500,iss=0x0/".
