Analysis for Ivy Bridge

I'm running Intel VTune Amplifier XE 2013 in Fedora 16 on an i7-3770.

Under "Analysis Type", I don't see any section for "Ivy Bridge". I see one for "Sandy Bridge", but I can't use most of the items in it, like "Branch Analysis" -- I get an error message "This analysis type is only defined for processors based on the Inter microarchitecture code named Sandy Bridge" for everything except "General Exploration" and "Bandwidth".

How do I analyse Ivy Bridge? Also, I'm surprised that I can't use the Sandy Bridge analysis on my "Ivy Bridge" processor because I understand Ivy Bridge to be mostly just a faster version of Sandy Bridge and architecturally compatible.

Peter, I don't understand what you really meant. Did you mean that the problem i described doesn't show up for you on your Ivy Bridge? If so, what can I do to fix the problem? Anyway, I ran the command you gave and here's the output. $ /opt/intel/vtune_amplifier_xe/bin64/amplxe-cl -collect snb-bandwidth -duration 10 Using result path `/home/josh.chia/tmp/r000bw' Executing actions 34 % Resolving information for `libgtk-3.so.0.200.4' Warning: Cannot locate symbols for file `/usr/lib64/libgtk-3.so.0.200.4'.

Joshua, What I wanted to say are: 1. You can use snb_ analysis types instead of ivy_ analysis types on Ivy Bridge platform, both for amplxe-cl and amplxe-gui 2. I don't know why ivy_ analysis types don't show up. 3. I tried amplxe-cl with snb_ analysis type, no problem. You can see that you did 3) on your ivy platform, no problem as well. Thanks, Peter

Your request should be tracked in future releases, I believe:-)
