When counting uncore event with alias, core event is mistakenly
involved, for example:
perf stat --no-merge -e "unc_m_cas_count.all" -C0 sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
0 unc_m_cas_count.all [uncore_imc_4]
0 unc_m_cas_count.all [uncore_imc_2]
0 unc_m_cas_count.all [uncore_imc_0]
153,640 unc_m_cas_count.all [cpu]
0 unc_m_cas_count.all [uncore_imc_5]
25,026 unc_m_cas_count.all [uncore_imc_3]
0 unc_m_cas_count.all [uncore_imc_1]
1.001447890 seconds time elapsed
The reason is that current implementation doesn't check PMU name of a
event when adding its alias into the alias list for core PMU. The
uncore event aliases are mistakenly added.
This bug was introduced in:
commit 14b22ae028de ("perf pmu: Add helper function is_pmu_core to
detect PMU CORE devices")
Checking the PMU name for all PMUs on X86 and other architectures except
ARM.
There is no behavior change for ARM.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
