Is there any way to get CPU utilization timeline data in vtune using command line?

AB27 — Fri, 22 Sep 2023 20:15:05 GMT

My goal is to generate CPU utilization timeline data from the command line in Vtune. Is there any way to do it?

I can collect Vtune data for hotspots using the following command:

`vtune -collect hotspots -result-dir r000hs program`

Using GUI, I can see the CPU utilization timeline as shown in the picture below:

However, I want to plot the data with high resolution and merge it with some other data to put it in a PDF. Can this data be generated from the command line?

I found a few commands to do it, but none generated this timeline data. For example,

`vtune -report hotspots -r r000hs -report-output output`

only generates the functions with overall runtime.

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Intel Communities.

The CPU utilization timeline data can be obtained using below command after running the analysis:

$ vtune -report timeline -r <result_dir_name> -report-knob column-by=CPUTime

Also, the number of bins for the above command can be changed using the below report-knob:

[...] -report-knob bin-count=xx

Eg:

$ vtune -report timeline -r r000hs -report-knob column-by=CPUTime -report-knob bin-count=20

If this resolves your issue, make sure to accept this as a solution. This would help others with a similar issue. Kindly let us know if you are still facing any issues.
