<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>-d[<var>num</var>]</code></dt>
<dt><code>--debug[=<var>num</var>]</code></dt>
<dd><p>The &lsquo;<samp>-d <var>num</var></samp>&rsquo; 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>--help</code></dt>
<dd><p>The &lsquo;<samp>-h</samp>&rsquo; option prints command line usage.
</p>
</dd>
<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
&lsquo;<samp>auto</samp>&rsquo; (the default), &lsquo;<samp>bsd</samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp>4.4bsd</samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp>magic</samp>&rsquo;, and
&lsquo;<samp>prof</samp>&rsquo; (not yet supported).
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-s</code></dt>
<dt><code>--sum</code></dt>
<dd><p>The &lsquo;<samp>-s</samp>&rsquo; 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 &lsquo;<samp>-s</samp>&rsquo; 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 &lsquo;<samp>-v</samp>&rsquo; flag causes <code>gprof</code> to print the current version
number, and then exit.
</p>
</dd>
