--- Comment #19 from PeteVine <tulipawn at gmail dot com> --- Here's what I've been doing to arrive at that profile-use crash: In the unpacked archive's top-level directory (see URL), edit premake4.lua to point to your SDL2 includes (instead of /opt) and add `-fprofile-generate` to your release CFLAGS. Followed by: $ premake4 gmake Now add -lgcov to the final link command in build/TEngine.mak at line 56 $ LDFLAGS=-lgcov make config=release -j4 $ ./t-engine The welcome screen is basically enough to gather lots of profile data. In the second step, CFLAGS in premake4.lua need changing to `-fprofile-use`, and after deleting all object files in obj/Release, it's the same dance again: $ premake gmake $ make config=release and on my machine gcc 6.1.1 (20160721) prints: ==== Building physfs (release) ==== physfsrwops.c physfs.c ../src/physfs/physfs.c:76:5: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types] &__PHYSFS_Archiver_BIND_PHYSFS, ^ ../src/physfs/physfs.c:76:5: note: (near initialization for ‘supported_types[0]’) ../src/physfs/physfs.c: In function ‘PHYSFS_eof’: ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: profile data is not flow-consistent } ^ ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: number of executions for edge 3-4 thought to be 1419 ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: number of executions for edge 3-7 thought to be -3 ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2086:44: error: corrupted value profile: ic profile counter (1420 out of 1419) inconsistent with basic-block count (1419) return((fh->bufpos == fh->buffill) && (fh->funcs->eof(fh->opaque))); ~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../src/physfs/physfs.c: In function ‘PHYSFS_openRead’: ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: profile data is not flow-consistent } ^ ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: number of executions for edge 4-5 thought to be 930 ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: number of executions for edge 4-6 thought to be -8 ../src/physfs/physfs.c: In function ‘sanitizePlatformIndependentPath’: ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: profile data is not flow-consistent ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: number of executions for edge 16-18 thought to be -6 ../src/physfs/physfs.c:2292:1: error: corrupted profile info: number of executions for edge 16-17 thought to be 4164
