OneAPI 2021.1.1 Gold Vtune command line tool doesn't work for non-root users

[Lin_L_Intel]

Command: vtune -collect hotspots -data-limit=0 -finalization-mode=none -result-dir="sample" -no-summary ls

When executing it under non-root user, it runs vtune but doesn't invoke ls command(no collect data). Run with root user, it works fine.

Non-root user is already in group " video render vtune". 

Are there any other settings?

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Intel VTune Profiler Forum.

We couldn't reproduce the issue from our end.

Could you please run the self-checker script ,

./<vtune-installation-directory>/bin64/vtune-self-checker.sh

See whether its working fine and share the log.

Also, please attach the entire result folder after running the vtune command :

 vtune -collect hotspots -data-limit=0 -finalization-mode=none -result-dir="sample" -no-summary ls

vtune-self-checker.sh  shows failure for 

Instrumentation based analysis check
Example of analysis types: Hotspots with default knob sampling-mode=sw, Threading with default knob sampling-and-waits=sw
Collection: Fail

Log and entire result folder after running the vtune command are attached.

Hi,

Thank you for your patience.

Looks like the known issue is with permissions for not-root users from VTune sw-based hotspots analysis on systems where installation was run by root/sudo.

To check exec permissions :

In the <vtune_install_dir>/bin64 directory , Run

$ ls -l | grep pinbin

To fix permissions:

$ sudo chmod o+rx <vtune_install_dir>/bin64/pinbin

Hope this helps.
