not able to install opofile on ubuntu 16.06

[Diego Avesani]

Dear all,
I am trying to install oprifile on ubuntu. Infortunately, I have some
problem:
I have downloaded oprofile, then I have run:

./configure

and this is the message that I got:

*checking libiberty.h usability... no*
*checking libiberty.h presence... no*
*checking for libiberty.h... no*
*checking for cplus_demangle in -liberty... no*
*configure: error: liberty library not found*

How can resolve it?
thanks for all your helps

Diego

Hi Diego,

To build oprofile you need to install some additional packages on your system something similar to:

dear all, dear William,

now it seems to work.
Is it possible to know how much memory my program requires?
something like:
total memory required ....

Using *operf ./a.out * and *opreport a.out*

I have this results:

*CPU: Intel Sandy Bridge microarchitecture, speed 3500 MHz (estimated)*
*Counted CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events (Clock cycles when not halted) with a unit
mask of 0x00 (No unit mask) count 100000*
*CPU_CLK_UNHALT...|*
* samples| %|*
*------------------*
* 98 100.000 a.out*
* CPU_CLK_UNHALT...|*
* samples| %|*
* ------------------*
* 35 35.7143 libgfortran.so.3.0.0*
* 28 28.5714 no-vmlinux*
* 28 28.5714 libc-2.23.so <http://libc-2.23.so>*
* 5 5.1020 ld-2.23.so <http://ld-2.23.so>*
* 2 2.0408 a.out*

Really Really thanks

Diego

Oprofile does statistical sampling on a program to find out where the process spends times or where cache misses occur. oprofile is not going to show memory use. You might use the valgrind too massif (http://valgrind.org/) to get information about memory use.
