Hi,

I’m encountering an issue while using xctrace & instruments to profile an application on macOS. Specifically, when trying to record a trace using the CPU Profiler template, I get the following errors:

Failed to start the recording: configureHardwareCounters: Failed set kpc configuration: Operation not permitted.

Unexpected failure: Couriers have returned unexpectedly.
  • macOS Version: 15.3.1

  • Xcode Version: Xcode 16.2

Hi there! This should be resolved in 15.4 Beta and it requires an OS update. Please verify and let us know if the issue is fixed.
