This product already contains the Intel® VTune™ Performance Analyzer Patch for Intel® Pentium® Processor Extreme Edition and Intel® Pentium® D Processor (vpa_7.2_ppl.zip). Installing any patch that requires manual copying of files regardless of version number, could potentially overwrite newer versions of these files. Please contact customer support if you wish to install a patch that requires manual file copying. |
Intel® Thread Checker is a tool that locates software threading bugs, such as data races, stalls, and deadlocks. Thread Checker monitors your software's execution to detect hard-to-find and impossible-to-find intermittent errors whether or not they actually occurred during execution.

This is a known technical limitation in the current version of Intel® Thread Checker for Windows*. These are related to DllMain and loader lock. DllMain is serialized internally by Microsoft Windows* using the loader lock. However, Intel® Thread Checker is not able to model the loader lock because it is invisible to the application Whenever a thread is created or terminated, the DllMain is called and these errors are generated. These errors are not generated at startup phase. |
