<p><b>Application Crashes When Attempting Call Graph Profiling</b></p>
We have seen cases where a user's application will crash when the VTune analyzer launches the application for call graph profiling.  Because of our binary instrumentation technology, and the injecting of code into a user application, sometimes various Microsoft* runtime libraries will cause the application to crash.  Symptoms vary, but you may see the "unhandled exception" message and the "Just-In-Time Debugger" prompt from Visual Studio*.  <br /><br /> <img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23442" title="JIT+debugger.JPG" alt="JIT+debugger.JPG" /><br /><br /> Followed by the VTune analyzer "No results were generated for this run" message:<br /><br /> <img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23443" title="no_results.JPG" alt="no_results.JPG" /><br /><br /> Reducing the instrumentation level of the Microsoft runtime libraries will often enable you to workaround this problem.  Follow these steps to apply the workaround:<br /><br /> 1)      Right-click on the Activity in the Tuning Browser and select <b>Modify Collectors...</b>:<br /><br /> <img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23444" title="modifycollector.JPG" alt="modifycollector.JPG" /><br /><br /> 2)      After the <b>Configure Call Graph</b> dialog appears, scroll the list of modules until you locate the msvcr<i>nn</i>[d].dll and msvcrt.dll modules.  The <i>nn</i> represents the version of Visual Studio that you are using.  In our example, Visual Studio 2005 was used and, therefore, <i>nn</i> = "80", as in 8.0.  If you are using Visual Studio 2008, the module would be msvcr90.dll or msvcr90d.dll, where the '<i>d</i>' representing the debug version of the DLL.<br /><br /> <img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23445" title="CollectorConfigDlg.JPG" alt="CollectorConfigDlg.JPG" /><br /><br /> Note that color-coding is used in the module list.  An explanation of the colors follows, and is available in the online help, as well.<br /><br /> 
<ul>
<li><span style="color: gray;">Gray</span>: Modules you added to the project from the Application/Module Profile Configuration dialog box, or from the Call Graph Configuration Wizard.</li>
<li><span style="color: blue;">Blue</span>: Modules added during call graph instrumentation as dependencies of the selected modules.</li>
<li>White: Modules you added via Add button, or added during run-time instrumentation.</li>
</ul>
<br /> 3)      Click on the <b>Instrumentation Level</b> cell for the <b>msvcr80.dll</b>, for example, and select <b>Minimal</b>:<br /><br /> <img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23446" title="CollectorConfigDlg2.JPG" alt="CollectorConfigDlg2.JPG" /><br /><br /> 4)      Press <b>Apply</b> and then <b>Instrument Now</b>:<br /><br /> <img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23447" title="CollectorConfigDlg3b.JPG" alt="CollectorConfigDlg3b.JPG" /><br /><br /> 5)      Now <b>OK</b> out of all dialogs and re-run the activity.<br /><br /> In this example, simply reducing the instrumentation level of msvcr80.dll resolved the problem and results were successfully collected.  The effect of reducing the instrumentation level on the runtime libraries is that no information regarding calls into those modules will be available in the call graph data.  If this information is critical for your tuning activity, you can try to use the Custom Instrumentation (see <b>Functions...</b> button) to deselect functions until the call graph activity succeeds.  Using a binary search technique, you would narrow down which function or functions fail when they are instrumented and select to not instrument them.  Follow these steps to accomplish this task:<br /><br /> <br /><br /> 1)      Press <b>Functions...</b> for the module of concern.  You will see a dialog box such as this:<br /> <br /><img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23451" title="functions1.JPG" alt="functions1.JPG" /><br /><br /> 2)      Now, using the scroll bar move to the middle of the list and select that line:<br /> <br /><img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23452" title="functions2.JPG" alt="functions2.JPG" /><br /><br /> 3)      Press Shift-Ctrl-End to select from this line to the bottom of the list.  The horizontal scroll bar will move all the way to the right.  Simply grab it and move it back to the left:<br /> <br /><img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23453" title="functions3.JPG" alt="functions3.JPG" /><br /><br /> 4)      Press the <b>Uncheck</b> button:<br /> <br /><img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23454" title="functions4.JPG" alt="functions4.JPG" /><br /><br /> 5)      Press <b>OK</b> and then <b>Apply</b> and <b>Instrument Now</b>:<br /> <br /><img src="http://software.intel.com/file/23455" title="functions5.JPG" alt="functions5.JPG" /><br /> <br /> <br /><br /> 6)      Notice that <b>Instrumentation Level</b> now shows <b>Custom</b> for the selected module.<br /><br /> 7)      <b>OK</b> out of all dialogs and re-run the Activity.<br /><br /> If the application fails, again, modify the function selection so that the top half of the functions is selected and re-run the activity.  In this way, you can narrow down which function(s) do not like to be instrumented (or "fail" when instrumented).<br /><br /> An alternative to the VTune analyzer's Call Graph feature is the <a href="../../../../en-us/intel-parallel-amplifier/">Intel® Parallel Amplifier</a>'s Hotspot analysis.  Parallel Amplifier uses a new technology to collect periodic samples, similar to "Clockticks" in the VTune analyzer, with complete call stacks, so that the call path to the hotspot is visible without instrumentation.  If you have a valid license for the VTune analyzer that includes support through April 1, 2010, you can download, install, and use Parallel Amplifier without any additional cost.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

      <title>Can’t create a new advanced build activity in Microsoft* Visual Studio* 2008</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ <p><strong>Environment:</strong></p>
<p>Microsoft* Visual Studio* 2008</p>
<p>Intel (R) VTune(TM) Performance Analyzer v9.1 Update 2 with Intel(R) Thread Profiler 3.1 Update 12</p>
<p>Intel(R) Thread Checker 3.1 Update 12</p>
<p>Intel(R) Parallel Studio, Initial Release</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Problem:</strong></p>
<p>The user installed VTune(TM) Performance Analyzer with Intel(R) Thread Profiler, Intel(R) Thread Checker first, then installed Intel(R) Parallel Studio. The icons of VTune(TM) Analyzer and other tools will be hidden in Toolbar's Options due to limited length of Toolbar. However if the user opened a solution and built project(s), then click on "Tuning Browser" tab, the user can't create a new advanced build activity since the icon was grayed.</p>
<p><strong>Root-cause:</strong></p>
<p>This is an unexpected error of the integration of Microsoft* Visual Studio* after installing Intel(R) Parallel Studio. For example, when the user has no solution file opened, all icons of tools should be inactive; When the user opens a new solution file, all icons of Intel(R) Parallel Studio are active, but some icons of old tools are inactive.</p>
<p><strong><img src="http://software.intel.com/file/21563" alt="icon-grayed.bmp" title="icon-grayed.bmp" /></strong> </p>
<p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p>
<ol type="1">
<li>Click on "Tuning Browser" tab first</li>
<li>Click on "Solution Explorer" tab</li>
<li>Click on "Tuning Browse" tab again.</li>
<li>Click on the project in "Tuning Browser" window</li>
</ol>
<p>The icon of "Advanced Activity Build" should be active.<br /><br /><strong><strong><img src="http://software.intel.com/file/21564" alt="icon-on.bmp" title="icon-on.bmp" /></strong></strong></p> ]]></description>

      <title>Intel® VTune™ Performance Analyzer for Windows* - No Connection to Remote Linux* Machine</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html><body>
<table border="0" cellspacing="15" cellpadding="0"><tr><td class="bodycopy">
<p><strong>Symptom(s):</strong><br></p>
<ul>
<li>ERROR: "Could not connect to remote machine. Connection refused. Error no. (10061)(WSAECONNREFUSED)"</li>
<li>This is followed by another dialog box titled "Serious Error"</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cause:</strong><br>Forgot to start VTServer on the Linux side.</p>
<p><strong>Solution:</strong><br><strong>Start VTServer on the Linux* Side</strong><br>Other possible causes include:</p>
<ol>
<li>TCP/IP is not running on the Linux server. Confirm that the Linux server is in multi-user mode, since TCP/IP processes don't run in single user mode (sometimes called maintenance mode).
<br><br># ps -ef | grep init
<br><br>The standard output of the above command will show an init statement, followed by a bracketed number. If that number is a [1], that is, anything other than a [2] through a [5], you must bring the system into multi-user mode so that TCP/IP will be active.
<br><br>
</li>
<li>TCP/IP names for the two systems are not properly set up.Try pinging between the two computers, both ways. Ping each direction first by IP address, then again by hostname. There should be no lost data packets.
<br><br>
</li>
<li>TCP/IP is not properly configured on the Linux system. Confirm the TCP/IP configuration by using the following two commands:
<br># netstat -in
<br># ifconfig &lt;network card&gt;
<br>Where &lt;network card&gt; is the non "lo" entry from the netstat command, for example:
<br># ifconfig eth0
<br>Confirm IP address, netmask, and all relevant networking information. Make changes if needed, compared to the TCP/IP setup of the Windows* computer.</li>

      <title>Intel® VTune™ Performance Analyzer for Windows* - An Error Occurs When I Try to Call Graph My Application</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html><body>
<table border="0" cellspacing="15" cellpadding="0"><tr><td class="bodycopy">
<p><strong>Symptom(s):</strong><br></p>
<p>Any of the following error messages are displayed:</p>
<ul>
<li>"Application failed to initialize properly."</li>
<li>"No results were generated for this run...."</li>
<li>"Instrumentation is not possible."</li>
</ul>
<p>Or, after exiting the application being call graphed, the activity does not automatically terminate and, after pressing the Stop button in the analyzer, the analyzer appears to hang.</p>
<p><strong>Solution:</strong><br></p>
<p>Follow this list of suggested steps to resolve any number of problems that you may encounter when using the call graph feature of the Intel® VTune&trade; analyzer. They are listed in order of preference:</p>
<strong>A. Clear the Call Graph Cache</strong><br><em>(problems addressed: instrumentation failures, application execution failures)</em><ol>
<li>Select the 
<strong>Options</strong> item from the 
<strong>Configure</strong> menu.</li>
<li>In the tree on the left, select 
<strong>Call GraphCollectorCache Directories</strong>.</li>
<li>Press both of the 
<strong>Clear</strong> buttons.</li>
<li>Create a new call graph activity and attempt to collect call graph data, again.</li>
</ol>
<strong>B. Remove the Module(s) from the Symbol Repository</strong><br><em>(problems addressed: instrumentation failures, application execution failures, source view failures)</em><ol>
<li>Select the 
<strong>Options</strong> item from the 
<strong>Configure</strong> menu.</li>
<li>In the tree on the left, select 
<strong>DirectoriesSymbol Repository</strong>.</li>
<li>Press the 
<strong>View Symbol Repository Files</strong> button.</li>
<li>Locate your module(s) in the list and click on it.</li>
<li>Press the 
<strong>Delete</strong> button - this does not delete the file from your system, it only removes the VTune analyzer's knowledge of it so that it will be regenerated.</li>
<li>Press 
<strong>OK</strong> until all dialog boxes are dismissed.</li>
<li>Create a new call graph activity and attempt to collect call graph data, again.
<br><strong>Note:</strong> If the problem persists, view the Symbol Repository files again and ensure that the correct symbol file is associated with the module(s) in question.</li>
</ol>
<strong>C. Ensure That the Symbol Information is Valid</strong><br><em>(problems addressed: application execution failures, source view failures)</em><ol>
<li>Open your module(s) with the Static Module Viewer, by selecting 
<strong>Open Static Module Viewer</strong> from the 
<strong>File</strong> menu.</li>
<li>Review the module and function list to ensure that the expected routines are present 
<em>with</em> the 
<strong>Functions with source</strong> check box checked.</li>
<li>If modules or functions are missing, ensure you have created a binary with debug information and that it is correctly identified by the VTune analyzer in the Symbo
l Repository (see section B above).</li>
</ol>
<strong>D. Reduce the Instrumentation Level to Minimal</strong><br><em>(problems addressed: memory consumption, application execution failures, lengthy processing times)</em><ol>
<li>Select the 
<strong>Options</strong> item from the 
<strong>Configure</strong> menu.</li>
<li>In the tree on the left, select 
<strong>Call GraphCollector</strong>.</li>
<li>Set the 
<strong>Default Instrumentation Level</strong> of 
<strong>User EXEs</strong> and 
<strong>User DLLs</strong> to 
<strong>Minimal</strong>.</li>
<li>
<strong>Create a new project</strong> using the Call Graph wizard, 
<strong>specifying your application</strong>, and 
<strong>attempt to run</strong> the activity.</li>
<li>If the execution of your application is successful (regardless of whether any results were generated), begin to 
<strong>increase the instrumentation level of specific modules</strong> of interest by modifying the activity and configuring the call graph collector.</li>
</ol>

<p>After upgrading to the Intel® VTune&trade; Performance Analyzer 8.0 for Windows, you may receive this error message when attempting to open the source view:</p>
<blockquote><strong>A serious error occurred in file D:VTune5.0analyzersrcSVDPVTSvdp.cpp at line 1526 (Unexpected problem has occurred. The Source View window will now be closed.). The failed HRESULT that produced this error is 0x80340004. Please contact technical support.</strong></blockquote>
<p>This can be the result of left over configuration files. Please exit the VTune analyzer and remove all files of the form

<p>We are aware of problems running the VTune&trade; Performance Analyzer for Windows* on Apple* hardware using the 
<a href="http://www.parallels.com/en/products/desktop/" target="_blank">Parallels* VM</a> and are working with them on a solution.</p>
<p>To avoid this problem, reboot into Microsoft Windows* using 
<a href="http://www.apple.com/bootcamp" target="_blank">Apple's Boot Camp*</a> and run the VTune analyzer under Windows.</p>
<p>We are also aware of processor events that cause the VTune analyzer to crash on Intel® Core&trade; Duo processors on both Apple and non-Apple hardware. We are working on an update to the VTune analyzer to address this problem and will update this page when it is available. In the meantime, disabling calibration in the sampling configuration may resolve this issue. Please refer to the online help topic 
<strong>Calibration</strong> for more information.</p>
