No, that is something totally different (it's about correct calculation of inclusive costs, and that needs detection of recursive function calls = cycles in the call graph). What do you mean by "number of loops in a function" ? How often the loop body was executed for a given loop construct on the source level? It's a little tricky because Valgrind does not see loops. It just sees jumps in the machine code. KCachegrind can show how often a jump was executed, but you have to understand that the compiler can do optimizations such as loop unrolling, such that the loop trip count does not relate to any jump counts. This said, you should run your code with Callgrind options "--dump-instr=yes --collect-jumps=yes". Then, machine code annotation in KCachegrind does show jump arcs, and how often (conditional) jumps were executed.
