Description: Enable gcov-based kernel profiling

More info: This option enables gcov-based code profiling (e.g. for code coverage measurements). If unsure, say N. Additionally specify CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y to get profiling data for the entire kernel. To enable profiling for specific files or directories, add a line similar to the following to the respective Makefile: For a single file (e.g. main.o): GCOV_PROFILE_main.o := y For all files in one directory: GCOV_PROFILE := y To exclude files from being profiled even when CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL is specified, use: GCOV_PROFILE_main.o := n and: GCOV_PROFILE := n Note that the debugfs filesystem has to be mounted to access profiling data.
