Hi,

how to get the assembly-instructions profile of a program in Linux (or Unix in general), similar with what gprof does, just that gprof is in higher-language (C/C++) level?

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but g++/gcc -S might be what you want. It creates a file 'file.s' with the assembly instructions in it.

Well, seems that I need more than what gcc -S provides, because it's like producing the "source code" in assembly languages. What I'm looking for is something similar with what gprof does, such as which instruction is called most often, how many times, etc., or maybe the assembly-instruction is part of which function (in C/C++). So far I know two types of profiling tools: gprof and memory profiler (valgrind and friends); I don't know if what I mentioned is available or people have ever done it.
