Error generating coverage report
I'm working on improving coverage and would like to generate some
reports (other than the text versions) to help me find uncovered code.
However, my source path and build path are not the same and I'm running
into problems.
This works fine and produces gcov output:
$ make -C test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup check
$ ls -1 test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup/*.gcno
test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup/pg_basebackup.gcno
test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup/pg_receivewal.gcno
test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup/pg_recvlogical.gcno
test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup/receivelog.gcno
test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup/streamutil.gcno
test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup/walmethods.gcno
But, when I try to generate the coverage report I get:
$ make -C test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup coverage-html
make: Entering directory `/home/vagrant/test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup'
/usr/bin/lcov --gcov-tool /usr/bin/gcov -q --no-external -c -i -d . -d
/postgres/src/bin/pg_basebackup -o lcov_base.info
geninfo: ERROR: no .gcno files found in /postgres/src/bin/pg_basebackup!
make: *** [lcov_base.info] Error 255
make: *** Deleting file `lcov_base.info'
make: Leaving directory `/home/vagrant/test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup'
It's looking at my source directory rather than my build directory.
Here's how I'm calling configure:
$ cd /home/vagrant/test/build
$ /postgres/configure --prefix=/home/vagrant/test/pg \
--docdir=/postgres-doc --enable-cassert --enable-tap-tests \
--enable-coverage --with-openssl --enable-depend
I read docs/10/static/regress-coverage.html but didn't see anything that
helps. Hopefully I'm missing something?
Thanks,

Vpath builds were one of the things that was specifically tested for the
coverage tooling changes that went into PG11, so it should work in
principle, unless something has changed in the meantime.

The -d options should accumulate, so that it should look in both places.
Wild guess: If the /postgres directory is some kind of vboxsf mount,
there might be problems if symlinks are involved.

/postgres is a vboxsf mount. However, I copied /postgres to
/home/vagrant/src and still see the same error:
$ make -C test/build/src/bin/pg_basebackup coverage-html

Thoughts?

I tried a setup like this locally and it works fine. So we might have
to be more precise. Can you tell me the vagrant box you are using if
it's public, or the OS version, and the exact commands, then I can try
to reproduce it.
