-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, first of all, I don't know if this is the appropriate list to ask about this subject. If it's not, sorry for the noise. Is there any pointer on how GCC deals to generate profiles (-p/-pg flags)? In particular, I'm looking for information on (but not only): * How GCC instruments user routines when compiling a C file using -p/-pg * Where I can find the instrumentation code (i.e., the code called at entry and exit points of user routines). Does it belongs to GCC package? Or maybe belongs to a foreign package lib GLIBC? * Where is the alarm set (signal SIGALRM or SIGPROF)? Thank you very much. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkr4A3wACgkQwMPeuqUCg9yL3gCfRyrmRlAeYyNqVjMtTv9NEZfN AT8AnijOlrale22w4ctrQvRu9//nEL7B =G4Jl -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
