The program intel-gpu-tools from git is crashing on startup. When starting intel-gpu-tools using the -f option, the following messages are shown: intel-gpu-overlay: gpu-perf.c:340: request_add: Assertion `class <= I915_ENGINE_CLASS_VIDEO_ENHANCE' failed. Abortado intel-gpu-tools version 1.18 opens, but shows the GPU usage as "idle", while version 1.22 opens and shows, in the part where it should show GPU usage, "i915.ko tracepoints not available". -- chipset: Intel Core i3-6100U -- system architecture: 64-bit -- xf86-video-intel: 2:2.99.917+git20171229-1 -- xserver: 2:1.19.6-1ubuntu4 -- mesa: 18.2.0-devel (git-e2e32b6afd) -- libdrm: 2.4.91-2 -- kernel: 4.17.7 -- Linux distribution: Xubuntu 18.04 -- Machine or mobo model: Lenovo Ideapad 310-14ISK 80UG -- Display connector: eDP and VGA
It intentionally doesn't adapt to different versions of the tracepoints, I suspect you need v4.19 currently (and v4.19 won't be for another 3 months...)
Does this still happen with a recent kernel?
Using latest kernels (5.0-rc) and latest intel-gpu-overlay it works correctly. It is only failing when older kernels, as 4.18.0-15, are used.
