Hello,
How can I turn profile driven optimizations with gcc-4.7.0 development
version?
It used to work with gcc-4.6.x and before. I am trying to use the latest GCC
trunk:
$ /opt/gcc47-20111207/bin/g++ -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=/opt/gcc47-20111207/bin/g++
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/opt/gcc47-20111207/libexec/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.7.0/lto-wrapper
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../gcc-source/configure --prefix=/opt/gcc47-20111207
--enable-languages='c++ c'
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.7.0 20111206 (experimental) (GCC)
I have got two files:
// t.cpp
#include<iostream>
void f() { std::cout<< "hello\n"; }
// t.cpp
void f();
int main() { f(); return 0; }
I compile them with:
$ rm -rf prof
$ /opt/gcc47-20111207/bin/g++ -c t.cpp -g -O2 -m32 -fprofile-generate=prof
$ /opt/gcc47-20111207/bin/g++ -c t2.cpp -g -O2 -m32 -fprofile-generate=prof
$ /opt/gcc47-20111207/bin/g++ -O2 t2.o t.o -g -m32 -fprofile-generate=prof
and I get:
========= begin ====
/home/me/t2.cpp:3: undefined reference to

Neither adding -lgcov at the end nor adding
/opt/gcc47-20111207/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.7.0/32/libgcov.a
helps.
Is it a bug needing a PR or is it something I did wrong?
