2017-05-12gcov: support GCC 7.1Martin Liska1-0/+6
Starting from GCC 7.1, __gcov_exit is a new symbol expected to be implemented in a profiling runtime.

An exact mapping would be within_module_core(), but at this stage (MODULE_STATE_GOING) the init section is empty, and this is clearer. Reviewed-by: Peter Oberparleiter <oberpar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
2015-06-30gcov: add support for GCC 5.1Lorenzo Stoakes1-0/+6
Fix kernel gcov support for GCC 5.1. Similar to commit a992bf836f9 ("gcov: add support for GCC 4.9"), this patch takes into account the existence of a new gcov counter (see gcc's gcc/gcov-counter.def.) Firstly, it increments GCOV_COUNTERS (to 10), which makes the data structure struct gcov_info compatible with GCC 5.1. Secondly, a corresponding counter function __gcov_merge_icall_topn (Top N value tracking for indirect calls) is included in base.c with the other gcov counters unused for kernel profiling.

2014-06-10gcov: add support for GCC 4.9Yuan Pengfei1-0/+6
This patch handles the gcov-related changes in GCC 4.9: A new counter (time profile) is added. The total number is 9 now. A new profile merge function __gcov_merge_time_profile is added. See gcc/gcov-io.h and libgcc/libgcov-merge.c For the first change, the layout of struct gcov_info is affected. For the second one, a dummy function is added to kernel/gcov/base.c similarly.

2013-11-13gcov: add support for gcc 4.7 gcov formatFrantisek Hrbata1-0/+6
The gcov in-memory format changed in gcc 4.7. The biggest change, which requires this special implementation, is that gcov_info no longer contains array of counters for each counter type for all functions and gcov_fn_info is not used for mapping of function's counters to these arrays(offset). Now each gcov_fn_info contans it's counters, which makes things a little bit easier. This is heavily based on the previous gcc_3_4.c implementation and patches provided by Peter Oberparleiter. Specially the buffer gcda implementation for iterator.

2013-11-13gcov: move gcov structs definitions to a gcc version specific fileFrantisek Hrbata1-14/+12
Since also the gcov structures(gcov_info, gcov_fn_info, gcov_ctr_info) can change between gcc releases, as shown in gcc 4.7, they cannot be defined in a common header and need to be moved to a specific gcc implemention file. This also requires to make the gcov_info structure opaque for the common code and to introduce simple helpers for accessing data inside gcov_info.

2009-06-18gcov: add gcov profiling infrastructurePeter Oberparleiter1-0/+148
Enable the use of GCC's coverage testing tool gcov [1] with the Linux kernel. gcov may be useful for: * debugging (has this code been reached at all?) * test improvement (how do I change my test to cover these lines?) * minimizing kernel configurations (do I need this option if the associated code is never run?) The profiling patch incorporates the following changes: * change kbuild to include profiling flags * provide functions needed by profiling code * present profiling data as files in debugfs Note that on some architectures, enabling gcc's profiling option "-fprofile-arcs" for the entire kernel may trigger compile/link/ run-time problems, some of which are caused by toolchain bugs and others which require adjustment of architecture code. For this reason profiling the entire kernel is initially restricted to those architectures for which it is known to work without changes. This restriction can be lifted once an architecture has been tested and found compatible with gcc's profiling. Profiling of single files or directories is still available on all platforms (see config help text).
