Hi All,

Sorry for the wide distribution:

According to LTP page info,
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/coverage/gcov.php
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/coverage/lcov.php

My question is
How to get kernel coverage when I run LTP test?

Since we do not have direct GCOV support on ARM I have enabled ( just
for experiment)

$ git diff  kernel/gcov/Kconfig
diff --git a/kernel/gcov/Kconfig b/kernel/gcov/Kconfig
index d4da55d..fceac85 100644
--- a/kernel/gcov/Kconfig

        This options activates profiling for the entire kernel.

I have enabled below kernel config and built the kernel.
CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y
CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y
CONFIG_GCOV_FORMAT_AUTODETECT=y

of course I have disabled gcov on below folders and files, because
since it is an experiment i would like to be on safe side
- arch/arm/mm/
- arch/arm/kernel/
- arch/arm/boot/
- arch/arm/boot/compressed/
- arch/arm/boot/bootp/
- arch/arm/boot/dts

Arndale booted with this configuration successfully.
Took more than 65 seconds to finish boot.

gcov related files are found under /sys/ similer to X86 machine.
And  gcov supporting files filename.gcda are having links to kernel source

root@linaro-developer:/tmp/linux-linaro-3.13-2014.01#

The above experiment gives coverage of a single file base.c when i run
gcov manually.
Is there any way to get Linux kernel coverage of all files after
running LTP test cases ?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards
