LLVM changed the expected function signatures for llvm_gcda_start_file() and llvm_gcda_emit_function() in the clang-11 release. Drop the older implementations and require folks to upgrade their compiler if they're interested in GCOV support.

This option enables gcov-based code profiling (e.g. for code coverage
|
|
measurements).
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N.
|
|
|
|
Additionally specify CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y to get profiling data
|
|
for the entire kernel. To enable profiling for specific files or
|
|
directories, add a line similar to the following to the respective
|
|
Makefile:
|
|
|
|
For a single file (e.g. main.o):
|
|
GCOV_PROFILE_main.o := y
|
|
|
|
For all files in one directory:
|
|
GCOV_PROFILE := y
|
|
|
|
To exclude files from being profiled even when CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL
|
|
is specified, use:
|
|
|
|
GCOV_PROFILE_main.o := n
|
|
and:
|
|
GCOV_PROFILE := n
|
|
|
|
Note that the debugfs filesystem has to be mounted to access
|
|
profiling data.

This options activates profiling for the entire kernel.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N.
|
|
|
|
Note that a kernel compiled with profiling flags will be significantly
|
|
larger and run slower. Also be sure to exclude files from profiling
|
|
which are not linked to the kernel image to prevent linker errors.
