Operating Systems AIX valgrind - pthread memory leaks on AIX Post 302408235 by visionofarun on Monday 29th of March 2010 02:03:55 AM

I don't see a continuous leak.

No 'definitely lost' memory. The leak is always reachable.

The memory leaked (reachable) always remains constant, immaterial of the number of threads created and destroyed (either by joining or by detached state).

The same code leaks 0 reachable memory on Linux. Could this be because of the way AIX libc handles the allocation and deallocation of thread resources? Weird, though Smilie

NAME
valkyrie - graphical front-end to the Valgrind suite of tools for debugging and profiling Linux executables SYNOPSIS
valkyrie [valkyrie-opts] [valgrind-opts] [prog-and-args] DESCRIPTION
Valkyrie is a graphical front-end to the Valgrind suite of tools for debugging and profiling Linux executables. The current version sup- ports Valgrind from version 3.4.0. Currently, the only supported Valgrind tool is Memcheck. Valkyrie uses the Qt widget library, and should run on most reasonably recent Linux setups. The only sine qua non is that you must have: Qt v.3.2.0 or higher (but not Qt v.4 as yet), and Valgrind v.3.4.0 or higher. OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. For more help please see HTML documentation. -h, --help -v, --version Show version of program. -V, --valgrind-opts Show valgrind options as well --working-dir Dir under which to run valgrind. Defaults to [./] --view-log <file> Parse and view a valgrind logfile --merge <loglist> Merge multiple logfiles, discarding duplicate errors SEE ALSO
