Hello all,
I’m trying to view on my Windows 10 machine an nsys profile produced by an application on Cori GPU. Unfortunately I am unable to load the profile due to the following error:
Failed to load report from: C:\Users\Chris Kelly\ncu_benchmarks\cori_gpu\run_benchmarkMFcontractKernel\nsys_profile_32pow4.qdrep Unexpected exception: e:\buildagent\work\20a3cfcd1c25021d\quadd\host\analysis\clients\reportfile.cpp(235): Throw in function void __cdecl QuadDAnalysis::ReportFile::verifySections(bool)
Dynamic exception type: class boost::exception_detail::clone_impl
std::exception::what: Exception
[struct QuadDCommon::tag_error_text * __ptr64] = Readonly section follows a non-readonly section.
[struct QuadDAnalysis::tag_report_file_name * __ptr64] = “C:/Users/Chris Kelly/ncu_benchmarks/cori_gpu/run_benchmarkMFcontractKernel/nsys_profile_32pow4.qdrep”
[struct QuadDCommon::tag_section_name * __ptr64] = Profiling Preset Data
I have tried regenerating the profile and encountered the same error.
On Cori GPU I’m using
cuda/11.3.0
nsys --version
NVIDIA Nsight Systems version 2021.1.3.14-b695ea9
to generate the profile and, on my Windows machine,
NVIDIA Nsight Systems Version: 2019.3.7.5-3837e03 Windows-x64.
to view the profile.
I’ve attached one of the offending profiles.
I’d appreciate any help you could provide.
Thanks,
Chris

EDIT: Despite the Windows app (v2019.3) claiming that it is the latest version when I clicked “check for updates” through the help menu, it turns out there are more recent versions available from NVidia’s website. Upgrading to 2021.3.1 appears to have fixed the issue.
