There are -Valgrind tools that can automatically detect many memory management -and threading bugs, and profile your programs in detail. You can also -use Valgrind to build new tools. - -The Valgrind distribution currently includes six production-quality -tools: a memory error detector, two thread error detectors, a cache -and branch-prediction profiler, a call-graph generating cache and -branch-prediction profiler, and a heap profiler. It also includes -three experimental tools: a heap/stack/global array overrun detector, -a different kind of heap profiler, and a SimPoint basic block vector -generator. It runs on the following platforms: x86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, -PPC32/Linux, PPC64/Linux, ARM/Linux, x86/MacOSX and AMD64/MacOSX. - -Optional dependency: either mpich or openmpi. If one of these is -found, valgrind will include the MPI wrapper, which allows using -valgrind with software that uses the MPI message passing standard. -Note that only one of mpich or openmpi should be installed, as they -conflict with each other. |
