Subject:   Kernel Code Coverage snapshot available.

I have uploaded a snapshot of the kernel code coverage output from
my testbox, in case anybody want to study their favourite piece of
code:

	http://phk.freebsd.dk/gcov/${sourcefile}.gcov

For instance:

	http://phk.freebsd.dk/gcov/subr_witness.c.gcov

I hope to commit the necessary stuff to the tree in a few days, after
which you will all be able to do this yourself :-)

I can't say that I think GCC does a very good job of matching the
counts to the right line-numbers, but that is what we have to work
with.  Lowering the optimization level or enabling debugging may
help, not sure, havn't tried.

A typical example of the output is:

		static void
		witness_levelall (void)
         169    {
         169    	struct witness_list *list;
         169    	struct witness *w, *w1;
		
			/*
			 * First clear all levels.
			 */
       15133    	STAILQ_FOREACH(w, &w_all, w_list) {
       14964    		w->w_level = 0;
			}
		

From which we for instance can figure out that on average the w_all
list has approx 88 items on it.

Enjoy...
