Thanks for all the info.

Actually I work for a firm where the program runs on a device continually a=
nd
we get the .gcda files from the device using a command which in turn invoked
__gcov_dump(). Similarly to reset all the counters, we thought of using
__gcov_reset after a __gcov_dump. We tar up the gcda files and take to the
source code where gcov is run.=
