Assignment 01: Using GNU Profiler ‘gprof’

Objectives

1. Profiling a program for Performance Analysis (gprof – Gunu Profiler).

Lab Tasks

1. Look at the code and describe what this code is doing?

2. You need to describe functionality of each function and also overall functionality of program

#include <stdlib.h>
#define N 19999

int func1 ( int ) ;


int func2 ( int ) ;

int main ( )
{
int i , j ;
j = 0 ;
for ( i = 0 ; i <= N; i++)
{
j = func1 ( j ) ;
}
return ( j ) ;
}

int func1 ( int j )


{
int k ;
for ( k = 0 ; k <= N; k++)
j = func2 ( j ) ;
return ( j ) ;
}

int func2 ( int j )


{
j += 1 - 3 / 4 ;
return j ;
}
3. Compile the program then run for profiling as described below. You need to run profiler for
this program and describe about the output in your own words, what you see there.

Compile my_program.c
gcc -pg my_program.c
./a.out

Analyze my_program.c
gprof a.out
