How to collect task execution time in the command line

[Caesar]

Hello there.

Is it possible to use VTune Update 4 command line to collect user task (i.e., those annotated/defined using the ITTNotifyLib) execution time? How? I could not find any link/docs.

Simply use:

$ amplxe-cl -c hotspots -knob enable-user-tasks=true -- .program

-OR-

$ amplxe-cl -c advanced-hotspots -knob enable-user-tasks=true -- program

I am sorry If I was not very clear. My main difficulty here is how to see the report and not how to collect them (which I got from the GUI).

When I type "$ amplxe-cl -help report" it says that the only available reports are:

    callstacks               Display CPU or wait time for callstacks.
    frequency-analysis       Display CPU frequency scaling time.
    gprof-cc                 Display CPU or wait time in the gprof-like format.
    gpu-computing-tasks      Display GPU computing tasks.
    hotspots                 Display CPU time.
    hw-events                Display hardware events.
    sleep-analysis           Display CPU sleep time and wake-up reasons.
    sleep-extended-analysis  
    summary                  Display data about overall performance.
    top-down                 Display a call tree for your target application and provide CPU and wait time for each function.
    vectspots                Display statistics that helps identify code regions for tracing on a HW simulator.

So the question is: how to see the report of total CPU Time by task (like the one from the GUI)? My final goal is to automate this process...

Thank you!

I'm sorry there is no report type to directly display "user task" info by using command line.

I wonder that you already put __itt_task_begin() / __itt_task_end() at function's entry/exit, you can see function's data in report?
