Counter Name: UNC_LLC_LINES_IN.M_STATE L3 CACHE lines allocated in M state

Could someone please help me understand how i could read this value ?

Hi -
This looks like a Nehalem counter.
The UNC_ prefix indicates that it's an Uncore counter. Unfortunately, Uncore is presently unsupported in PAPI.
Sorry.
