Error while building the sampling driver

AVtuneUser — Tue, 29 Nov 2022 09:32:31 GMT

Hi!

I have some problems with the Vtune sampling drivers. I have installed version 2022.4.1 via apt.

Here there is a screen and the info about my machine. The problem seems to be socwatch.

sudo ./build-driver -ni -pu

…

mv: cannot stat 'socwatch/drivers/socwatch2_15-x32_64-5.ko': No such file or directory

make: *** [Makefile:224: default] Error 1

Failed to build the drivers

./insmod-sep -q

pax driver is loaded and owned by group "vtune" with file permissions "660".

socperf3 driver is loaded and owned by group "vtune" with file permissions "660".

sep5 driver is loaded and owned by group "vtune" with file permissions "660".

socwatch driver is loaded and owned by group "vtune" with file permissions "660".

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

This is a problem related to building, loading, or accessing the PAX, SEP, VTSS drivers.

In the VTune GUI, change the target directory to "/opt/intel/vtune_profiler_target" and click Deploy.

This should copy <INSTALL_DIR>/<Version>/target/linux/vtune_profiler_target_xj86_64.tgz to /opt/intel/ on the target, extract the .tgz to /opt/intel/vtune_profiler_target and build / load the PAX/SEP/VTSS drivers.

To verify the deployment was successful, on the target system (e.g., via ssh),

cd /opt/intel/oneapi/vtune/2022.4.1/sepdk/src

cd /opt/intel/

./insmod-sep -q

Note whether the drivers are loaded and which group has ownership (default is vtune).

If there are problems, rebuild and load the drivers with the following:

./build-driver -ni

./insmod-sep -r -g <your group name>

./insmod-sep -q

Then click "Retry" in the VTune GUI.

If this resolves your issue, make sure to accept this as a solution. This would help others with similar issue.

Thanks
