| <dd><p>The ‘<samp>-d <var>num</var></samp>’ option specifies debugging options. |
| If <var>num</var> is not specified, enable all debugging. |
| See <a href="Debugging.html#Debugging">Debugging <code>gprof</code></a>. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>-h</code></dt> |

| <dt><code>-O<var>name</var></code></dt> |
| <dt><code>--file-format=<var>name</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Selects the format of the profile data files. Recognized formats are |
| ‘<samp>auto</samp>’ (the default), ‘<samp>bsd</samp>’, ‘<samp>4.4bsd</samp>’, ‘<samp>magic</samp>’, and |
| ‘<samp>prof</samp>’ (not yet supported). |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>-s</code></dt> |
| <dt><code>--sum</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The ‘<samp>-s</samp>’ option causes <code>gprof</code> to summarize the information |
| in the profile data files it read in, and write out a profile data |
| file called <samp>gmon.sum</samp>, which contains all the information from |
| the profile data files that <code>gprof</code> read in. The file <samp>gmon.sum</samp> |
| may be one of the specified input files; the effect of this is to |
| merge the data in the other input files into <samp>gmon.sum</samp>. |
| </p> |
| <p>Eventually you can run <code>gprof</code> again without ‘<samp>-s</samp>’ to analyze the |
| cumulative data in the file <samp>gmon.sum</samp>. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>-v</code></dt> |
| <dt><code>--version</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The ‘<samp>-v</samp>’ flag causes <code>gprof</code> to print the current version |
| number, and then exit. |
