This means you may need to build sep5 driver from the provided
driver sources. Please see the driver README for instructions.

Note: Ensure that the driver is built for kernel version 6.6.0-14-generic

It looks VTune driver fails to build on the kernel. Need to check if the 2024.0 supports the kernel. Let me check.

[yuzhang3_intel]

It is one known issue, which will be fixed in VTune 2024.1. Maybe you can use perf or user-mode sampling instead of SEP.

[Sylvain]

Hello,

I have the same problem. And using perf or user-mode sampling does not seem to give as precise profiling data. When will be approximately released VTune 2024.1 ?

Thanks, best regards

[yuzhang3_intel]

I don't know the accurate distribution date, 2024.1 should be released in next month.

[IonutNechita]

Hi @yuzhang3_intel 

I tested this and is fixed now.

Thanks.

Thanks for the confirmation.
