Description Fred M 2025-01-13 16:47:01 UTC
Hello,

I have difficulty to run callgrind, the real time is blocking the boot.
So I run  it with : --instr-atstart=no  , to start it correctly.

Nevertheless, I can't use "callgrind_control -i on 12345" to enable it because I haven't perl.

Would it have a similar command usable with "vgdb" ?

( I am on a ARM device )

Regards,
Frédéric

or maybe an argument valgrind to ask to start after X instruction ?

Well, I found "vgdb instrumentation on" in the callgrind_control script
