Hello,
I am using Source SDK by Valve to create HL2 Mods for personal research. I am enjoyably using your tool, VTune, to learn which modules are taking up resources. It was very good in doing that. However, I have a relative issue to this one, I wish to learn who is calling the functions (modules). I need so to understand which parts of the WHOLE program can be optimized with parallelization.
First is to find the parts of the WHOLE program that are using up most of the CPU time. Because, through the help of VTune, I learned which moduls/functions are being called up, it is not enough to know which parts of the WHOLE program are working. Therefore, second is to find who is calling the modules/functions from before.
Therefore, my question is how do I know which parts of the WHOLE program are using those called modules? Is here where call-graph comes into action?
BTW, when I try to drill down after VTune finishes its collection, I always get the message that I cannot trail through calls. Is there a tool, or a compiler that I can use to get that trailing feature?
I would like to state my goal only so that someone with a relatively good advice may be kind enough to oblige.
My goal is to find which parts of the Mods that use up the most of the CPU time to be able to parallelize it.
Thank you guys in advance!

Yes, call-graph is exactly what you need to find out "who called this function". Call-graph will also tell you, how often the function was called, which is important to identify the best level to thread the routine.Don't forget to adjust the instrumentation level for the module that you are interested in. If this module is loaded at runtime, it will only show up in the list of modules after a first run.
Kind regards

Would you kindly explain what you meant by adjusting the instrumentation level for the module? I remember from a previous reply of yours, you kindly instructed me to make sure to add my dlls to the modules when call-graphing. However, is what you are saying now about adjusting the instrumentation level different?
Is there anything else I need to keep in mind as well?

I have run the Call-Graph wizard, added my two dlls to the modules. Then, made VTune run my mod, paused VTune so that I can set the proper settings in my game (map...etc), resumed VTune. After the game finished, the part I wanted to monitor, I pressed Stop in VTune. Then, I get the following pop-up message "No results were generated for this run. Check the log or output window for further information." I checked the Output widown, and nothing suspicious seemed to be there.
Below is the output. What should I do to get the needed output?

Would you kindly explain what you meant by adjusting the instrumentation level for the module? I remember from a previous reply of yours, you kindly instructed me to make sure to add my dlls to the modules when call-graphing. However, is what you are saying now about adjusting the instrumentation level different?
Is there anything else I need to keep in mind as well?
I fixed the problem of not getting a graph after the game finishes. The problem was that I clicked Stop in VTune instead of exiting properly from within the game itself.
However, since the Output is already there, could someone kindly tell me whether the "not found" dll files will influence my result?

The VTune help on "Configure Call Graph Dialog Box" provides the background information that your need. It also explains how tochange the instrumentation level.
If your measurement already provides the results that you are looking for, it sounds like there is nothing for you to worry about.
Kind regards

Yes, I guess you are right.

Hello,
I am using Source SDK by Valve to create HL2 Mods for personal research. I am enjoyably using your tool, VTune, to learn which modules are taking up resources. It was very good in doing that. However, I have a relative issue to this one, I wish to learn who is calling the functions (modules). I need so to understand which parts of the WHOLE program can be optimized with parallelization.
First is to find the parts of the WHOLE program that are using up most of the CPU time. Because, through the help of VTune, I learned which moduls/functions are being called up, it is not enough to know which parts of the WHOLE program are working. Therefore, second is to find who is calling the modules/functions from before.
Therefore, my question is how do I know which parts of the WHOLE program are using those called modules? Is here where call-graph comes into action?
BTW, when I try to drill down after VTune finishes its collection, I always get the message that I cannot trail through calls. Is there a tool, or a compiler that I can use to get that trailing feature?
I would like to state my goal only so that someone with a relatively good advice may be kind enough to oblige.
My goal is to find which parts of the Mods that use up the most of the CPU time to be able to parallelize it.
Thank you guys in advance!

Call graph data shows the calling sequence of the application and critical path, and can help identify functions that maybe good candidates to introduce threads. When generating call graph data, it is advisable to disable compiler inlining (-fno-inline, -fno-inline-functions). This makes it clear which functions are consuming CPU time and helps identify opportunities to introduce threads.
Intel VTune call graph data gives the critical path information of all the functions in the application. Critical path data indicates the most time-consuming path in the application. It is displayed as a thick red edge and starts from the most time consuming thread.
If one is interested in threading the application, selecting the functions to thread on the critical path gives better performance results. Since, OpenMP is suited for coarse grain parallelism, it would be better to scale thread one level above the hotspot pointed in the call graph data. The fact that to achieve excellent scaling, instead of focusing on a part of an application effectively, we need to determine how to thread the entire application effectively.

Thank you Srivastav. Now, let me see if I understood you correctly. You mean, that instead of going to, let's say we have inside our program a function that shoots a gun at a target. And, inside this function is a another function that is called to calculate the angel in which to aim the gun at. After running VTune, the function that does the aiming is shown as a hotspot. So, what you say is, instead of focusing on the function that does the aiming, we should go one step back, and focus and try and optimize/parallelize the function that calls that aiming one, right?
Thanks
