my ati stream profiler doesn't work on some of the OpenCL codehave

Hi, I have a problem with my ati stream profiler v2.2.0. I already installed AMD APP SDK  2.4 and ATI stream profiler 2.2. And actully, when I tested profiler with the sample code, it works well, the profiler is produced.

But we I used sprofiler command line with my own executables, Only one line "Session output path: xxx.csv" is produced, but actually the session output file: xxx.csv is empty. 

Without using sprofile on my computer, my executable works nice. So what would be the problem?

Thank you for reporting this issue.  Which version of driver are you using?  What are the command line options did you use?
Please send a test case to gputools.support@amd.com if possible.
Thanks.

Thanks for replying. My amd driver is AMD Catalyst™ 11.3 Proprietary Linux x86 Display Driver, the command like is as follows: sprofile -o myprofile.csv ./MYEXE (And I found profiler cannot even create csv automatically, so I have created an empty csv: myprofile.csv before running this command line) And MYEXE is just the my executable under the current directory. Especially when I directly call the command line: ./MYEXE, the program really works well and produces the correct output. And by using the same sprofile command line, I can really create profile for the sample code. 

 

So, I am really confused with this program. I have sent you the test cases by email. Thanks!

Can you please confirm that the profiler bitness matches with the bitness of your application? i.e. you should use the 64-bit sprofile to run with a 64-bit application.

Yes, I am totally sure the bitness matches, my OS is linux x86_64 bits.

I am also facing problem in executing the profiler. i ran the command sprofile-x64 "MonteCarloAsian.exe" "--device gpu -c 1000"

this command opens a new window and runs the "MonteCarloAsian.exe"   program. The program runs very fast and after pressing "Pause" key lot of times i managed to get the error screenshot and found that the error message "Error: clCreateContextFromType failed. Error code : CL_INVALID_VALUE"

My environment:

OS Windows 7 (64 bit)

MontecarloAsian.exe (64 bit)

sprofile-x64 64 bit (V2.1.320)

Catalyst Version 11.3

Help me in running the profiler

Hi sfmraja, I can't reproduce your problem with Stream Profiler 2.1. Are you able to run MonteCarloAsian.exe without the profiler?
We have just released a newer version of profiler, Can you please try with that?


Thank you.

Hi, actually when I run the command: sprofile -o xxxx.csv ./myexecutable,

my executable file even has not been executed....... But when I try others, they are executed....
