Stephane is right, need the combination.
Sorry that I may made mistake when I tested 0xd0 pebs events.

Re-test all PEBS events, now only below 2 events need more support to
work.

PEBS_EVENT_CONSTRAINT(0x01cd, 0x8), /* MEM_TRANS_RETIRED.LOAD_LATENCY */
PEBS_EVENT_CONSTRAINT(0x02cd, 0x8), /* MEM_TRANS_RETIRED.PRECISE_STORE*/
