 ## Introduction
 
-The Rust compiler includes two code coverage implementations:
-
--   A GCC-compatible, gcov-based coverage implementation, enabled with `-Z profile`, which derives coverage data based on DebugInfo.
--   A source-based code coverage implementation, enabled with `-C instrument-coverage`, which uses LLVM's native, efficient coverage instrumentation to generate very precise coverage data.
-
-This document describes how to enable and use the LLVM instrumentation-based coverage, via the `-C instrument-coverage` compiler flag.

-# `profile`
-
-The tracking issue for this feature is: [#42524](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/42524).
-
-------------------------
-
-This feature allows the generation of code coverage reports.
-
-Set the `-Zprofile` compiler flag in order to enable gcov profiling.
-
-For example:
-```Bash
-cargo new testgcov --bin
-cd testgcov
-export RUSTFLAGS="-Zprofile -Ccodegen-units=1 -Copt-level=0 -Clink-dead-code -Coverflow-checks=off -Zpanic_abort_tests -Cpanic=abort"
-export CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0
-cargo build
-cargo run
-```
-
-Once you've built and run your program, files with the `gcno` (after build) and `gcda` (after execution) extensions will be created.
-You can parse them with [llvm-cov gcov](https://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/llvm-cov.html#llvm-cov-gcov) or [grcov](https://github.com/mozilla/grcov).
-
-Please note that `RUSTFLAGS` by default applies to everything that cargo builds and runs during a build!
-When the `--target` flag is explicitly passed to cargo, the `RUSTFLAGS` no longer apply to build scripts and procedural macros.
-For more fine-grained control consider passing a `RUSTC_WRAPPER` program to cargo that only adds the profiling flags to
-rustc for the specific crates you want to profile.
