Sounds to me as something that could be made into a build option, but that’s just ’shooting from the hip’, I haven’t looked at the CMake files yet.

Okay, I was able to find a workaround.

 

I changed the following inside the main CMakeLists.txt inside my Wireshark 3.2.4 root directory and rebuild Wireshark:

 

Line 500 (add code coverage compiler flags; changed extension from *.c.gcno to *.gcno):

set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage")

set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage")

set(CMAKE_C_OUTPUT_EXTENSION_REPLACE 1)

set(CMAKE_CXX_OUTPUT_EXTENSION_REPLACE 1)

 

Line 750 (Added -lgcov for GCOV and LCOV integration):

set(WIRESHARK_LD_FLAGS

                               # See also CheckCLinkerFlag.cmake

                               -Wl,--as-needed

                               # -flto

                               # -fwhopr

                               # -fwhole-program

                               -lgcov 

                )

 

 

*.gcda and *.gcno file location in Ubuntu:

/*/build-ninja/plugins/epan/dissector_name/CMakeFiles/dissector_name.dir/

 

 

Evaluation commands:

local@vxu-1804: ~/*/build-ninja

lcov -c -d . -o coverage.lcov

mkdir lcov-output

 

genhtml -o lcov-output/ coverage.lcov

or with source error ignoration:

genhtml –ignore-errors source -o lcov-output/ coverage.lcov

 

 

Maybe this helps someone else.

 

Is this a good way, or is there a better/preferred way to do it?

Betreff: [Wireshark-dev] Code Coverage Measurement of Wireshark - Outdated Instruction

 

Hello together,

 

I created a small Dissector that I want to test now.

Therefore I tried the Code Coverage Measurement from the Wireshark Wiki Page but ran into some issues.

 

At first I have seen, that this page was updated the last time in 2008. (wiki.wireshark.org/Development/CodeCoverage)

These steps are not valid anymore:

 

~/wireshark$ ./autogen.sh

~/wireshark$ ./configure CFLAGS=--coverage [options]

 

Starting with Wireshark 3.0.0, autotools is no longer supported, only cmake. – According to this thread: Missing autogen.sh in 3.0.0 (Ask Wireshark Thread)

 

Could someone please update that Wiki entry or/and explain to me how I can achieve this with CMake?

Unfortunately I am not able to create *.gcno files with CMake.

I guess some commands are different and I maybe have to change some CMake Configuration Files.

 

For your interest, I use Ubuntu.

GCC Version is 7.5.0 (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04)

 

I tried this already but no *.gcno files were created:

make clean && make CFLAGS=--coverage LDFLAGS=--coverage

 

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

 

Best regards,
