Hi @sakaia , attaching to a process is supported for Linux for Tegra targets, those are AArch64.

Thank you for your comment.
If it supports aarch64, it will also available on bluefield or it supports tegra only.

The underlying issue is that in order to have enough access to trace/sample the things Nsys needs we need to access system information. On X86/SBSA/Power, we do this at the time the application is launched. On Tegra for embedded systems, we do this by hooking into the OS, which users will let us to, because they literally own the system.
