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

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.

1. Reset coverage data: lcov -z
2. Run LTP (or any other test case)
3. Capture coverage data: lcov -c -o coverage.info
4. Generate HTML output: genhtml coverage.info -o out
5. View HTML output: <browser> out/index.html

More information on lcov can be found on the page behind the second URL
your quoted in your mail.

It is working !!!
LTP executed on linux-linaro build on vexpress-tc2 target.
Please find results obtained
http://people.linaro.org/~naresh.kamboju/linux-linaro-coverage-by-ltp/

The plan is to run all linaro test suite and to get coverage date.

Peter Oberparleiter,
Thank you very much for your help.

I have tested LTP on vexpress-tc2. I did not try all test suites.
We ( In Linaro) Linaro Test Suites is a package that contains test
suites that can be run in LAVA.
