I tried again gcov with the help of Peter (I was hoping that it would become mainline with 2.6.28). Here are the results: http://www.bullopensource.org/ext4/20081020-gcov/ While I do not share the idea that 100% coverage is a requirement, I found it useful the show obvious holes in a test suite and as an indication for the test effort. -- solofo
