libze_intel_gpu.so didn't load when executing sycl-ls

Hi, I'm using LNL and want to use level-zero iGPU. However, when I install NEO, only opencl environment is good.

libze_intel_gpu.so exist in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/, but the level zero only find vpu and didn't load any gpu so file.
If any suggestion, would be appreciate!

Hello @wdkwyf

So, please check your LD_LIBRARY_PATH, if the loader is only showing the libze_intel_vpu.so, then the libze_intel_gpu.so is missing from the path.

If the gpu driver library was in the path you would have seen:
ZE_LOADER_DEBUG_TRACE:Using Loader Library Path:
ZE_LOADER_DEBUG_TRACE:Load Library of libze_intel_gpu.so

In fact it should always print that unless the loader you are using is missing the lines:
static const char *knownDriverNames[] = {
MAKE_LIBRARY_NAME("ze_intel_gpu", "1"),
..

In the linux driver discovery.

Can you provide the logs from:

strace sycl-ls

and

SYCL_UR_TRACE=-1 sycl-ls

Thank you for your time!

@nrspruit Thanks for your help! With your suggestion, I found the library was broken. Thank you for your professional knowledge, which helped to solve this problem.
