Installing Intel® SDE
Download and unpack the appropriate kit for your platform. Set your PATH variable to point to that directory. You can also refer to the tools in the kit using full or relative paths. Do not rearrange the files or subdirectories in the unpacked kit. If you want to move the kit directory, move everything to new location.
Linux
On some distributions, you must disable “SE Linux” to allow Intel® SDE to work. On Ubuntu systems, you must disable yama. The yama feature disallows processes from using ptrace attach to their parent process. Intel® SDE is using this feature to inject itself into the process. To disable yama on the system run the following as root:
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope
This change takes effect until the next reboot. To make this change permanent add it to the init scripts of the system.
Windows
If you are using Winzip, it puts the proper permissions on the unpacked files. However, if you are using Cygwin’s tar command to unpack the kit, you must execute a chmod -R +x path-to-kit on the unpacked kit (where “path-to-kit” is the unpacked kit directory name).
