Subject: Re: Profiling support in glibc?
Date: Mon, 18 Jun 2001 15:05:18 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <B753C92D.5ABA%satz@ayrnetworks.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <3B2E5163.D130FA01@murphy.dk>

I was able to get profiling working using glibc-2.2.2 and gcc-2.95.3. Both
packages needed changes. The compiler had a stack misalignment correction
for glibc. Glibc didn't save all the registers nor treat sp/fp correctly.
Currently files compiled with -pg need to be linked -static. Specs need to
be updated to do this automatically.

I will send diffs if there is any interest.

Thanks,
Greg
