gprof issue on XSCALE

[Lin George]

Hello everyone,

I want to use gprof to monitor performance of a program on an XSCALE CPU system, currently I am using Monta Vista tool chain to build application for the XSCALE system. But I can not find a gprof tool shipped with Monta Vista Linux. Does anyone have any idea of how to use gprof in my environment -- could work with Monta Vista Linux tool chain for XSCALE?

The more specific issue I could see is, I could compile and execute with profiler enabled application (-pg option), but there is no tool to analyze the output report in Monta Vista Linux (I can not find gprof command in Monta Vista installation package, and I am using version 3.1). -- I think I could not use x86 Linux desktop gprof to analyze the ouput generated by Monta Vista XSCALE compiler -- since I think gprof has to be matched with platform (XSCALE?). Any ideas?


regards,
George
