using gcov for libraries not executable
I might be tasked with gcov related project. The initial assessment is easy with compiling simple c++ or c program to trace the execution. However I could be tasked with gcov usage on libraries (*.so) files or even linux driver or even possibly a low level firmware. Is it possible, has anyone done something like it? Thanks.,
key takeaway after spending yrs on sw industry: big issue small because everyone jumps on it and fixes it. small issue is big since everyone ignores and it causes catastrophy later. #devilisinthedetails
