OneAPI Way to Check the Number of CPU cores/threads in use?

 I was wondering if there is a way, when I run a sycl program with a cpu_selector to get if I'm using it as single core or multi core ? 

 

Using sycl::info::device::max_compute_units. Here's a minimal example:

#include <CL/sycl.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main(){
  sycl::device d = sycl::cpu_selector().select_device();
  std::cout << d.get_info<sycl::info::device::max_compute_units>() << std::endl;
}

On my machine (which has 8 physical cores & 16 hardware threads), this returns 16. Which as the function name suggests this is max value.

 

So how could I know if my application is running al those 16 threads or 4 threads ? Maybe 2 cores ?

Hi,


Thanks for posting on Intel communities.

You can use the Hotspots Views in Intel® VTune™ Profiler tool to gather information about the number of cores, number of threads, and determine whether your application is utilizing a single core or multiple cores.

Please refer to the below link for further details,

If you still face any issues, please let us know.

 

Thanks & Regards,
