J'utilise Ubuntu 16.10 et j'essaie de profiler un programme en utilisant gprof. Je compile avec le drapeau -pg
et le programme est monothread. Les commandes de compilation réelles sont:
g++ -I. -std=c++11 -Wall -Wextra -O3 -pg -fPIC -Wno-unused-parameter -c -o build/obj/performance/stencil_application.o test/performance/stencil_application.cpp
g++ -I. -std=c++11 -Wall -Wextra -O3 -pg -Wno-unused-parameter build/obj/performance/stencil_application.o -o build/test/performance/stencil_application
Le programme prend quelques secondes pour se terminer lorsque je l'exécute et un fichier nommé gmon.out est produit. Cependant, lorsque je lance gprof ./build/test/performance/stencil_application
, la sortie que je reçois ne contient aucun chiffre. Je ne reçois que les en-têtes du tableau et l'explication des différents champs, comme ceci:
Flat profile:
Each sample counts as 0.01 seconds.
% cumulative self self total
time seconds seconds calls Ts/call Ts/call name
% the percentage of the total running time of the
time program used by this function.
cumulative a running sum of the number of seconds accounted
seconds for by this function and those listed above it.
self the number of seconds accounted for by this
seconds function alone. This is the major sort for this
listing.
calls the number of times this function was invoked, if
this function is profiled, else blank.
self the average number of milliseconds spent in this
ms/call function per call, if this function is profiled,
else blank.
total the average number of milliseconds spent in this
ms/call function and its descendents per call, if this
function is profiled, else blank.
name the name of the function. This is the minor sort
for this listing. The index shows the location of
the function in the gprof listing. If the index is
in parenthesis it shows where it would appear in
the gprof listing if it were to be printed.

Call graph (explanation follows)
granularity: each sample hit covers 2 byte(s) no time propagated
index % time self children called name
This table describes the call tree of the program, and was sorted by
the total amount of time spent in each function and its children.
etc.
J'ai aussi essayé de compiler sans -O3
et avec -g
, mais avec le même résultat. Quelqu'un sait-il ce qui ne va pas?
Comme indiqué dans le commentaire de Tony Beta Lambda ci-dessus, il s'agit d'un bug dans gcc . Il existe deux solutions possibles: rétrograder vers gcc-4.9 ou compiler avec l'indicateur -no-pie
.
