+<h4 class="subsection">18.9.12 Generating Code for Profiling</h4>
+<a name="index-profiling_002c-code-generation"></a>
+
+<p>These macros will help you generate code for profiling.
+</p>
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-FUNCTION_005fPROFILER"></a>Macro: <strong>FUNCTION_PROFILER</strong> <em>(<var>file</var>, <var>labelno</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>A C statement or compound statement to output to <var>file</var> some
+assembler code to call the profiling subroutine <code>mcount</code>.
+</p>
+<a name="index-mcount"></a>
+<p>The details of how <code>mcount</code> expects to be called are determined by
+your operating system environment, not by GCC. To figure them out,
+compile a small program for profiling using the system&rsquo;s installed C
+compiler and look at the assembler code that results.
+</p>
+<p>Older implementations of <code>mcount</code> expect the address of a counter
+variable to be loaded into some register. The name of this variable is
+&lsquo;<samp>LP</samp>&rsquo; followed by the number <var>labelno</var>, so you would generate
+the name using &lsquo;<samp>LP%d</samp>&rsquo; in a <code>fprintf</code>.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-PROFILE_005fHOOK"></a>Macro: <strong>PROFILE_HOOK</strong></dt>
+<dd><p>A C statement or compound statement to output to <var>file</var> some assembly
+code to call the profiling subroutine <code>mcount</code> even the target does
+not support profiling.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-NO_005fPROFILE_005fCOUNTERS"></a>Macro: <strong>NO_PROFILE_COUNTERS</strong></dt>
+<dd><p>Define this macro to be an expression with a nonzero value if the
+<code>mcount</code> subroutine on your system does not need a counter variable
+allocated for each function. This is true for almost all modern
+implementations. If you define this macro, you must not use the
+<var>labelno</var> argument to <code>FUNCTION_PROFILER</code>.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-PROFILE_005fBEFORE_005fPROLOGUE"></a>Macro: <strong>PROFILE_BEFORE_PROLOGUE</strong></dt>
+<dd><p>Define this macro if the code for function profiling should come before
+the function prologue. Normally, the profiling code comes after.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fKEEP_005fLEAF_005fWHEN_005fPROFILED"></a>Target Hook: <em>bool</em> <strong>TARGET_KEEP_LEAF_WHEN_PROFILED</strong> <em>(void)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>This target hook returns true if the target wants the leaf flag for
+the current function to stay true even if it calls mcount. This might
+make sense for targets using the leaf flag only to determine whether a
+stack frame needs to be generated or not and for which the call to
+mcount is generated before the function prologue.
+</p></dd></dl>
