Description Eugene 2022-12-30 09:45:20 UTC
Description of problem:

Jemalloc package is built without profiling support. If there is no technical reason for not including it, it would be really nice to be able to profile allocations. Also it's misleading that jemalloc-devel contains jeprof utility for profiler data analysis, but jemalloc itself can't produce such data.

Additional info:

Could be fixed by adding --enable-prof flag in configuration step of the build script.

Comment 2 Ondřej Surý 2024-09-19 13:03:02 UTC
Additionally, you are shipping `jeprof` tool in the -devel package.  That doesn't make any sense at all.  The `jeprof` tool can be used without -devel package, only if the profiling was enabled for the last 2 years since this has been requested.

Comment 3 Ingvar Hagelund 2025-03-31 10:39:50 UTC
I've added profiling in latest rawhide build, https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-8eaedc126e . Should I move jeprof too, or may it stay in the -devel package?
