Debugging Auto-Device Plugin

Using Debug Log

In case of execution problems, just like all other plugins, Auto-Device provides the user with information on exceptions and error values. If the returned data is not enough for debugging purposes, more information may be acquired by means of ov::log::Level.

There are six levels of logs, which can be called explicitly or set via the OPENVINO_LOG_LEVEL environment variable (can be overwritten by compile_model() or set_property()):

0 - ov::log::Level::NO
1 - ov::log::Level::ERR
2 - ov::log::Level::WARNING
3 - ov::log::Level::INFO
4 - ov::log::Level::DEBUG
5 - ov::log::Level::TRACE

   :language: python

.. tab:: OS environment variable

.. code-block:: sh

  When defining it via the variable, 
  a number needs to be used instead of a log level name, e.g.:
  
  Linux
  export OPENVINO_LOG_LEVEL=0
  
  Windows
  set OPENVINO_LOG_LEVEL=0

@endsphinxdirective

The property returns information in the following format:

@sphinxdirective .. code-block:: sh

[time]LOG_LEVEL[file] [PLUGIN]: message @endsphinxdirective

in which the LOG_LEVEL is represented by the first letter of its name (ERROR being an exception and using its full name). For example:

@sphinxdirective .. code-block:: sh

[17:09:36.6188]D[plugin.cpp:167] deviceName:MYRIAD, defaultDeviceID:, uniqueName:MYRIAD_ [17:09:36.6242]I[executable_network.cpp:181] [AUTOPLUGIN]:select device:MYRIAD [17:09:36.6809]ERROR[executable_network.cpp:384] [AUTOPLUGIN] load failed, MYRIAD:[ GENERAL_ERROR ] @endsphinxdirective

Instrumentation and Tracing Technology

All major performance calls of both OpenVINO™ Runtime and the AUTO plugin are instrumented with Instrumentation and Tracing Technology (ITT) APIs. To enable ITT in OpenVINO™ Runtime, compile it with the following option: @sphinxdirective .. code-block:: sh

-DENABLE_PROFILING_ITT=ON @endsphinxdirective

For more information, you can refer to:

• Intel® VTune™ Profiler User Guide

Analyze Code Performance on Linux

You can analyze code performance using Intel® VTune™ Profiler. For more information and installation instructions refer to the installation guide (PDF) With Intel® VTune™ Profiler installed you can configure your analysis with the following steps:

1. Open Intel® VTune™ Profiler GUI on the host machine with the following command: @sphinxdirective

.. code-block:: sh

cd /vtune install dir/intel/oneapi/vtune/2021.6.0/env source vars.sh vtune-gui @endsphinxdirective

2. select Configure Analysis
3. In the where pane, select Local Host @sphinxdirective .. image:: _static/images/IE_DG_supported_plugins_AUTO_debugging-img01-localhost.png :align: center @endsphinxdirective
4. In the what pane, specify your target application/script on the local system. @sphinxdirective .. image:: _static/images/IE_DG_supported_plugins_AUTO_debugging-img02-launch.png :align: center @endsphinxdirective
5. In the how pane, choose and configure the analysis type you want to perform, for example, Hotspots Analysis: identify the most time-consuming functions and drill down to see time spent on each line of source code. Focus optimization efforts on hot code for the greatest performance impact. @sphinxdirective .. image:: _static/images/IE_DG_supported_plugins_AUTO_debugging-img03-hotspots.png :align: center @endsphinxdirective
6. Start the analysis by clicking the start button. When it is done, you will get a summary of the run, including top hotspots and top tasks in your application: @sphinxdirective .. image:: _static/images/IE_DG_supported_plugins_AUTO_debugging-img04-vtunesummary.png :align: center @endsphinxdirective
7. To analyze ITT info related to the Auto plugin, click on the Bottom-up tab, choose the Task Domain/Task Type/Function/Call Stack from the dropdown list - Auto plugin-related ITT info is under the MULTIPlugin task domain: @sphinxdirective .. image:: _static/images/IE_DG_supported_plugins_AUTO_debugging-img05-vtunebottomup.png :align: center @endsphinxdirective
