  	This option enables gcov-based code profiling (e.g. for code coverage
  	measurements).
  
  	If unsure, say N.
  
  	Additionally specify CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y to get profiling data
  	for the entire kernel. To enable profiling for specific files or
  	directories, add a line similar to the following to the respective
  	Makefile:
  
  	For a single file (e.g. main.o):
  	        GCOV_PROFILE_main.o := y
  
  	For all files in one directory:
  	        GCOV_PROFILE := y
  
  	To exclude files from being profiled even when CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL
  	is specified, use:
  
  	        GCOV_PROFILE_main.o := n
  	and:
  	        GCOV_PROFILE := n
  
  	Note that the debugfs filesystem has to be mounted to access
  	profiling data.

  	This options activates profiling for the entire kernel.
  
  	If unsure, say N.
  
  	Note that a kernel compiled with profiling flags will be significantly
  	larger and run slower. Also be sure to exclude files from profiling
  	which are not linked to the kernel image to prevent linker errors.
