prof-gen-sampling

Tells the compiler to generate debug discriminators in debug output. This aids in developing more precise sampled profiling output. This is a deprecated option that may be removed in a future release. This feature is only available for ifort.

Syntax

Linux:

-prof-gen-sampling

macOS:

None

Windows:

None

Arguments

None

Default

OFF

The compiler does not generate debug discriminators in the debug output.

Description

This option tells the compiler to generate debug discriminators in debug output. Debug discriminators are used to distinguish code from different basic blocks that have the same source position information. This aids in developing more precise sampled hardware profiling output.

This is a deprecated option that may be removed in a future release. There is no replacement option.

To build an executable suitable for generating hardware profiled sampled output, compile with the following options:

    -prof-gen-sampling -g

To use the data files produced by hardware profiling, compile with option -prof-use-sampling.
