  • GCOV Support for Redhat Kernel

    Posted on

    Hi,
    I have enabled gcov in rhel kernel as below:
    CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y
    CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y
    CONFIG_GCOV_FORMAT_AUTODETECT=y

    CONFIG_GCOV_FORMAT_3_4 is not set

    CONFIG_GCOV_FORMAT_4_7 is not set

    Makefile also has define WITH_GCOV 1
    The build and boot were successful.

    Now, while building kernel modules, I can see that there are {filename.mod.c}, and {filename.mod.o} files generated.
    but their gcno files {filename.mod.gcno} is just of 12bytes for all the modules and don't seem to help get coverage.

    Any suggestions please.
    Thanks
