Subject: [PATCH V8] GCOV: Add config to check the preqequisites situation
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2020 21:15:05 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201028131505.482037-1-gengcixi@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Cixi Geng <cixi.geng1@unisoc.com>

Introduce new configuration option GCOV_PROFILE_PREREQS that can be
used to check whether the prerequisites for enabling gcov profiling
for specific files and directories are met.

Only add SERIAL_GCOV for an example.
