I want to get --test-coverage and --profile-arcs working for the
kernel in order to give us better statistical tools.
Unfortunately, GCC now uses construcorts to string the counters into
a list, and we don't call constructors in the kernel.
Would it be evil to do that ?
I've managed to get it working with the following patch, a modified
version of kernbb(8) and the standard GCC::gcov binary.
Any objections to me committing this ?
Is there a better way to get the start and end of the .ctors section ?
