Hello, I came across OProfile recently and it seems to be very useful. I could build it and it seems to be working on Ubuntu 18.04. I tried to profile a simple C++ code with operf. However, I cannot use it without sudo. $ /path/to/oprofile-1.2.0/bin/operf --version Unexpected error running operf: Permission denied However, this works: $ sudo /path/to/oprofile-1.2.0/bin/operf --version /path/to/oprofile-1.2.0/bin/operf: oprofile 1.2.0 compiled on Jun 5 2018 14:26:25 What do I need to do to run it without admin privileges? I need to run it on a cluster that I have access to, but I cannot use sudo there. I don't necessarily need a system-wide profile, I think I can do with just profiling my executable.
