HI,

I have a question related to profiling.

In glibc, the function definition of profil() is existing in the following
places

glibc-2.4/gmon/profil.c
glibc-2.4/sysdeps/mach/hurd/profil.c
glibc-2.4/sysdeps/posix/profil.c
glibc-2.4/unix/sysv/linux/profil.c

If we compile the source code with gcc -pg option, which profil() function
among the above will be executed in i386 ?

I want to confirm is it from glibc-2.4/sysdeps/posix/profil.c  ?

Thanks and Regards
Raja Saleru
