The uncore events repeat for each related uncore device. On a system with many uncore devices (high core-count systems), this results in a large number of uncore events that will be request on the perf stat command line and possibly be too large for the bash arguments stack.
We defined a function that contains a list of verbose uncore event names and abbreviations for them. The function replaces the verbose name with the abbreviated form.
