Vtune analyzes python exceptions

[zhang_stu]

Hi，all,

I am trying to use vtune to perform hotspots analysis on a python program. The command line parameters are as follows. The command can run normally and can also produce a "r000hs" result file, but the python program (spades.py) I want to analyze is not actually running. I used a python program with no parameters to test, it can perform hotspots and memory-consumption analysis normally. Is the problem now because this python program takes parameters? How can I analyze the spades.py program normally? In addition, the attachments are the version of vtune and the exception log file when spades.py is analyzed.

Looking forward to your answer，Thanks！

Hi,

Thanks for posting in Intel forums.

We will look into this. Meanwhile, could you update your vtune version and try your sample in that updated version?

Regarding your question " Is the problem now because this python program takes parameters? " - No that is not the issue. We have already tried with parameters and haven't faced any issues.

Hi,

Thank you for your prompt reply. I have now downloaded the latest version of vtune. A series of "/lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found" was prompted when using it. I learned that the glibc version is too low. After I downloaded the appropriate version of glibc, I encountered path problems again during configuration. In which path will glibc be configured generally?

Thanks~

Hi,

Thanks for the update.

Usually we don't get any dependency issues while installing Vtune. Vtune is available as a part of Intel oneAPI basekit(https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/tools/oneapi/base-toolkit/download.html) and also as standalone version(https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/oneapi-standalone-components.html#vtune).

Try downloading vtune once again from the above mentioned links and let us know if the issue persists.

Regarding your initial query, we tried your command with a sample python code in python 3.7 and it is working fine. We will try that with python 3.8 and let you know the updates. Meanwhile could you share your os details and your current vtune version?

Regards,

Hi, Janani Chandran
Sorry to keep you waiting. My system is Centos Linux version 6. I downloaded Intel oneAPI basekit and standalone version respectively according to the link you provided. The installed versions are Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit 2021.2 and Intel® VTune(TM) Profiler 2021.2.0. After the installation was successful, I executed source vtune-vars.sh in the corresponding directory, and then I tried to run vtune in the bin64 directory, but the above "/lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found" problem still appeared .

Dear Customer,

thanks for submitting this issue.

CentOS 6.* or RedHat 6.* is not supported anymore by Intel Software tools. Is there any chance to upgrade to a newer CentOS version >= 7? Or do you have an alternative system? You may try the Intel Devcloud and run the command line version of vtune on Ubuntu 20.4? The complete oneapi package is installed on the Devcloud and access is free!
