Preparing an Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor System for Analysis

Build the target application on the host with full optimizations, which is recommended for performance analysis.

Create a user account on the coprocessor. See the Intel MPSS installation document for details.

For native Intel Xeon Phi application analysis, configure SSH access for remote collection to the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor card.

For native Intel Xeon Phi application analysis, copy the application to the coprocessor card.

For example:

scp matrix.mic mic0:/tmp

You may add this command to a build script to automate a copy action after the binary recompilation. Or you can mount the host directory so that the binary is visible on the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor. See the NFS Mounting a Host Export topic in the Intel® Manycore Platform Software Stack (Intel® MPSS) help for details.
