vtune memory-access report showing incorrect output

I am running vtune -collect memory-access ./main and I receive the output below. The main binary does a lot of random memory accesses on a large virtual and physical memory range.

 

Memory Bound
LLC Miss: 0.0% of Clockticks
DRAM Bandwidth Bound: 0.0% of Elapsed Time
LLC Miss Count: 0
Average Latency (cycles): 19
Total Thread Count: 2
Paused Time: 0s

 

The input seems incorrect since there are actually many LLC misses, and the uarch exploration report shows a 100% LLC replacement percentage (though the 100% result seems incorrect, too). On the other hand, other stats outputted by the uarch-exploration report (e.g., CPI rate) seem reasonable. Is there something I need to do to get vtune to work correctly? Is it possible that maybe vtune just does not fully support my CPU version and so only some of its features work?

Hi,

 

Thank you for posting in Intel Communities.

 

Please can you answer the following questions:

1. What is the version of Intel® Vtune that you are using?

2. Please can you share your O.S and processor details?

3. Please can you share the exact steps you followed and a sample reproducer(sample application that is similar to the application you are trying to analyze)?

 

Thank You,

Jaideep

Hi,


Vtune shows this kind of output only when an executable runs in negligible time or if there is some issue with your executable. Please make sure that there are no issues while running your executable.
