problem with vtune amplifier

[satya_b_]

Dear all, 

             I whave written bunch of FORTRAN 90 codes and compiled with ifort. I have made Makefile as follows.  

OBJECTS := co2_ads.o sub_change_pot.o sub_total_pot.o sub_del_pot.o sub_ins_pot.o sub_translationmove.o sub_rotmove.o sub_deletionmove.o sub_insertionmove.o sub_chempot.o sub_trans_sample.o sub_hmatrix.o global_mod.o constants_mod.o cavity_var.o ewald_mod.o sub_cavity.o sub_gasmolcavity.o sub_total_kspace.o sub_total_bonded.o sub_del_kspace.o sub_del_kspace1.o sub_kspace_ins.o 

co2_ads.x: $(OBJECTS)
ifort -o c.x -O $(OBJECTS)
%.o: %.f90
ifort -c $<
clean:
rm -f *.o *.mod

Then I executed ./c.x. However, I want to see which part of code among these codes are taking more time. For that I used Vtune profiler as with following command

amplxe-cl -collect hotspots /tmp/r001/ -- ./c.x

 I got an error as follows: 

amplxe: Error: Failed to start profiling because the scope of ptrace system call application is limited. To enable profiling, please set /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope to 0. See the documentation for instructions on enabling it permanently.

Can you please explain me, what could be the error I made. 

Thank you.

VTune Amplifier XE can't run Hotspots analysis if ptrace is set to non-zero.  As the error message says, you need to set it to 0 in /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope file.
