Intel oneAPI 2024.x.x Advisor 2024.x Environment Modules Modulefiles (on Linux Systems)

[Bracy_Elton]

Greetings.

This regards Linux systems. 

It appears that the environment modules modulefiles for Intel Advisor in Intel oneAPI 2024.x.x incorrectly set PATH and ADVISOR_2024_DIR environment variables.  The issue is that there is a "/etc/modulefiles" string after the Advisor root directory.

• Example:  Intel oneAPI 2024.2.0 and 2024.2.1
  • In the case of PATH, the Advisor binary path (put in PATH) becomes something like $oneapi_installdir/advisor/2024.2/etc/modulefiles/bin64 instead of $oneapi_installdir/advisor/2024.2/bin64.
  • And ADVISOR_2024_DIR points to $oneapi_installdir/advisor/2024.2/etc/modulefiles instead of $oneapi_install/advisor/2024.2.  This is not an issue with Intel oneAPI 2023.1.0 or 2022.0.2 (don't know about other 2023.x and 2022.x releases).

• Example:  Intel oneAPI 2024.0.1
  • Quite incorrectly, the modulefile for Advisor in Intel oneAPI 2024.0.1 adds "/" to PATH and sets ADVISOR_2024_DIR to "/".

In case it matters, Intel oneAPI was installed with the BaseKit and HPCKit offline scripts for Linux.

I have fixed the problem in local copies of Intel oneAPI 2024.x.x Advisor modulefiles.  I am posting here hoping fixes appear in the next Intel oneAPI release.

Please advise.

Thanks.  --Bracy

Thanks for reporting the issue; the issue has been escalated to the engineering team and will be fixed in a future release.

Here is a workaround:

The target file is something like /opt/intel/oneapi/advisor/latest/etc/modulefiles/advisor/2024XX

set write permissions on the target file and edit the file

Old

set PRODUCT_INSTALL_DIR "[file dirname [file dirname $script_path]]"

New

set PRODUCT_INSTALL_DIR "[file dirname [file dirname [file dirname [file dirname $script_path]]]]"

Open a new shell and load the module again
