runtime error: aqlprofile API table load failed

After updating rocm from 3.3.0 to 3.5.1, rebuilding rocprofiler and roctracer, I get the following error when profiling an executable (which uses an AMD Vega 56 GPU):

> rocprof --stats -o rocpf_stat.csv the_prog

I see a similar error when doing --hsa-trace

rocprof --hsa-trace -o rocpf_hsa.csv the_prog

Please set:
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/rocm/hsa-amd-aqlprofile/lib

It will be fixed in 3.6 release

[cgleggett]

there is no /opt/rocm/hsa-amd-aqlprofile/lib directory. Which package is supposed to install it?

[eshcherb]

The package is 'hsa-amd-aqlprofile'.
Do you have /opt/rocm? - you might have /opt/rocm-<rev>, something like: /opt/roccm-3.5.1
So then set path to /opt/rocm-3.5.1/hsa-amd-aqlprofile/lib

[cgleggett]

ah, ok. It was installed by hsa-amd-aqlprofile-1.0.0-1.x86_64, but got wiped out when I removed the 3.3 release of rocm to upgrade to 3.5.

[cgleggett]

ok, looks good now.

thanks!

[eshcherb]

Could you close the ticket?

BTW, I did need to turn on object-tracking, otherwise I got a core dump.

error(4096) "QueryKernelName(), Error: V3 code object detected - code objects tracking should be enabled
"
/opt/rocm-3.5.1/bin/rocprof: line 275: 32039 Aborted                 (core dumped) "runTFCSSimulation"

not the most elegant exit scenario, but at least the error message is clear ;-)
