you just do a normal perf_event_open_syscall. You set the attr.type field to the value you find in /sys/devices/uncore_mbox_0/type and you set the attr.config value to whatever inc_sel=0xa,pld=0x0500,iss=0x0 maps to. This is where having libpfm4 support would help a lot, but adding support for all of those different values looks like it will be a pain.
