Ok, here is what I am trying to do. I have modified the kernel to track some of the system calls made by apache at run time. I want to ensure that all possible invocations of those system calls in any place in the apache code are invoked. This means that if I run gcov or any code coverage tool on the apache, I would see close to 90-100% of code being covered during that run of apache. I assumed that since apache is open source, these would also be.
