A 'git bisect' pointed me to this patch. Reverting it seems to fix the issue. My CI is building the kernel out of the source tree, in ".virtme/build". Before and after this patch, GCOV seems to do its job properly. Capturing GCOV data with this lcov command seems OK too: lcov --capture --keep-going -j "${INPUT_CPUS}" \ --rc geninfo_unexecuted_blocks=1 \ --include '/net/mptcp/' \ --function-coverage --branch-coverage \ -b "${PWD}/.virtme/build" -o kernel.lcov But after this patch, lcov complains some files are not found, e.g. ERROR: (source) unable to open ${WORKDIR}/.virtme/build/net/mptcp/ctrl.c: No such file or directory The output file is different: the path to the source file is wrong because it points to the build dir. Instead of ... SF:${WORKDIR}/net/mptcp/ctrl.c ... now I have ... SF:${WORKDIR}/.virtme/build/net/mptcp/ctrl.c Are there modifications needed on GCOV side to adapt to the behaviour change introduced by this patch? Or something else needed on the userspace side?
