After patching our OS for Meltdown we're seeing nodes crash during amplxe-cl collection using the HW counters (any of the non-PIN collections)
PIN collections work ( simple hotspots )
Also, using the older 2017 Update 1 VTune and collectors there are no issues.
But 2018 Update 1 with event counters crashes the node almost immediately after start of collection on any application.
SEP drivers were not rebuilt after the Meltdown kernel patches - perhaps that is a test to do?
Anyone else seen this behavior? Nodes crash hard and have to be power cycled.
