linux - gperftools cpu profiler 不支持多进程？

Question

根据文档，http://gperftools.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/doc/cpuprofile.html , cpu profiles 确实支持多进程并且会生成独立的输出文件:

If your program forks, the children will also be profiled (since they inherit the same CPUPROFILE setting). Each process is profiled separately; to distinguish the child profiles from the parent profile and from each other, all children will have their process-id appended to the CPUPROFILE name.

但是当我尝试如下时:

//main_cmd_argv.cpp

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <gperftools/profiler.h>

int loop(int n) {
    int sum = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < n; j++) {
            sum = i + j;
            if (sum %3 == 0) {
                sum /= 3;
            }
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {

    printf("%s\n%s\n", getenv("CPUPROFILE"), getenv("CPUPROFILESIGNAL"));

    if (argc > 1 && strcmp(argv[1], "-s")==0) {
        // single process
        loop(100000);
        printf("stoped\n");
    } else if (argc > 1 && strcmp(argv[1], "-m")==0) {
        // multi process
        pid_t pid = fork();
        if (pid < 0) {
            printf("fork error\n");
            return -1;
        }
        if (pid == 0) {    
            loop(100000);
            printf("child stoped\n");
        } else if (pid > 0) {
            loop(10000);
            printf("father stoped\n");
            wait(NULL);
        }        
    }   

    return 0;
}

好像gperf不支持多进程，谁能解释一下？谢谢!

很老了，不知道你有没有找到答案，但是...

似乎每个线程/fork 都应该使用 ProfilerRegisterThread() 注册自己；您可以在这两个问题中找到更多信息:Here和 Here .

这里还有一个示例代码，类似于您的测试用例，其中 fork 可以是 registered .
