Sampling Driver Kit
Intel® VTune™ Profiler uses
kernel drivers to collect hardware event-based sampling data from Performance Monitoring Units on the CPU.
The VTune Profiler installer automatically uses the Sampling Driver Kit included with the package to build drivers for your kernel with the default installation options.
Sometimes updates to the operating system may cause these drivers to fail at build or loading. In those instances, users may need updated versions of the drivers before official updates of the product are available. The latest available sampling drivers are available below.
