ripc error on amd64
I've just downloaded x64 version of spot, unfortunately ripc does not work:
> /opt/SUNWspro/extra/bin/ripc ./a.out
12232 init_lwp: can't bind perf counters to lwp 1 - Operation not applicable
12232: lwp discovery failed
lost control of pid 12232
I have 64bit Solaris10 on Sun's w2100z workstation (Opteron 246).
Maybe someone know how to solve it...

Hi Gorrus,
I have seen this error before on X64 platforms and it has to do with libcpc implementation. Can you please try the following command on your system to see if other utilities that use libcpc also run into this limitation? Please post the output.
cputrack -c DC_access,DC_miss ls -l
These tools have a better error message and I am planning on including one into ripc soon (probably today).
thanks,
Geetha
