You failed to specify the SVR2 platform. There is such a beast
for SystemV Release 2 (and later) for the ATT 3B product line.
It is called lprof for line profiler. It produces an annotated
listing of the C source with a count, line by line, of the number
of times each statement was executed.
It uses a special routine to insert code into the executable and
is invoked as a compile time option (-qc) to the C compiler. The
lprof is part of the C Programmers Productivity Tools offered by
ATT. See your account rep.
For SVR2 people who don't have an ATT platform consult your
vendor they might have the product or plan to offer it.
