multithreaded application | waits and locks analysis

[Mourad_B_2]

Hi,

I am analyzing a multithreaded application with one main thread and 100 threads-child.

I am trying to get the waitandlocks. when I am running this command line:

./amplxe-cl -collect locksandwaits -target-duration-type=medium -follow-child  --target-pid "pid"

I have this error:

amplxe: Error: Assertion '(blocked == tpss_tls_op_err_ok)' failed.[ASSERTION CONTEXT][CONTEXT END]. Please contact the technical support.
amplxe: Error: Assertion 'head.sp >= sp' failed.[ASSERTION CONTEXT]head.sp = 0xfec6c286, sp = 0x7f3e8e7f
[CONTEXT END]. Please contact the technical support.

any ideas to fix it?

Thanks,

Mourad

Sure, try the following command:

amplxe-cl -collect locksandwaits -- <path to application executable and its command line>

It'll start your application. Probably that way it won't crash.

Anyway, it would be good to know if crash related to attach mode only.

Can you please also tell the result of the following command:

amplxe-cl -collect hotspots -duration 10 -target-pid <PID>  

Does it cause this issue or not?

the hotspots analysis is working well. thanks for your message.
