Release 3.16.1 (22 June 2020)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.16.1 fixes two critical bugs discovered after 3.16.0 was frozen. It also
fixes character encoding problems in the documentation HTML.
422677 PPC sync instruction L field should only be 2 bits in ISA 3.0
422715 32-bit x86: vex: the `impossible' happened: expr_is_guardable: unhandled expr
(3.16.1, 22 June 2020, 36d6727e1d768333a536f274491e5879cab2c2f7)
Release 3.16.0 (27 May 2020)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.16.0 is a feature release with many improvements and the usual collection of
bug fixes.
This release supports X86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, ARM32/Linux, ARM64/Linux,
PPC32/Linux, PPC64BE/Linux, PPC64LE/Linux, S390X/Linux, MIPS32/Linux,
MIPS64/Linux, ARM/Android, ARM64/Android, MIPS32/Android, X86/Android,
X86/Solaris, AMD64/Solaris and AMD64/MacOSX 10.12. There is also preliminary
support for X86/macOS 10.13, AMD64/macOS 10.13 and nanoMIPS/Linux.
* ==================== CORE CHANGES ===================
* It is now possible to dynamically change the value of many command line
options while your program (or its children) are running under Valgrind.
To see the list of dynamically changeable options, run
"valgrind --help-dyn-options".
You can change the options from the shell by using vgdb to launch
the monitor command "v.clo <clo option>...".
The same monitor command can be used from a gdb connected
to the valgrind gdbserver.
Your program can also change the dynamically changeable options using
the client request VALGRIND_CLO_CHANGE(option).
* ================== PLATFORM CHANGES =================
* MIPS: preliminary support for nanoMIPS instruction set has been added.
* ==================== TOOL CHANGES ====================
* DHAT:
- The implicit memcpy done by each call to realloc now counts towards the
read and write counts of resized heap blocks, making those counts higher
and more accurate.
* Cachegrind:
- cg_annotate's --auto and --show-percs options now default to 'yes', because
they are usually wanted.
* Callgrind:
- callgrind_annotate's --auto and --show-percs options now default to 'yes',
because they are usually wanted.
- The command option --collect-systime has been enhanced to specify
the unit used to record the elapsed time spent during system calls.
The command option now accepts the values no|yes|msec|usec|nsec,
where yes is a synonym of msec. When giving the value nsec, the
system cpu time of system calls is also recorded.
* Memcheck:
- Several memcheck options are now dynamically changeable.
Use valgrind --help-dyn-options to list them.
- The release 3.15 introduced a backward incompatible change for
some suppression entries related to preadv and pwritev syscalls.
When reading a suppression entry using the unsupported 3.14 format,
valgrind will now produce a warning to say the suppression entry will not
work, and suggest the needed change.
- Significantly fewer false positive errors on optimised code generated by
Clang and GCC. In particular, Memcheck now deals better with the
situation where the compiler will transform C-level "A && B" into "B && A"
under certain circumstances (in which the transformation is valid).
Handling of integer equality/non-equality checks on partially defined
values is also improved on some architectures.
* exp-sgcheck:
- The exprimental Stack and Global Array Checking tool has been removed.
It only ever worked on x86 and amd64, and even on those it had a
high false positive rate and was slow. An alternative for detecting
stack and global array overruns is using the AddressSanitizer (ASAN)
facility of the GCC and Clang compilers, which require you to rebuild
your code with -fsanitize=address.
* ==================== OTHER CHANGES ====================
* New and modified GDB server monitor features:
- Option -T tells vgdb to output a timestamp in the vgdb information messages.
- The gdbserver monitor commands that require an address and an optional
length argument now accepts the alternate 'C like' syntax "address[length]".
For example, the memcheck command "monitor who_points_at 0x12345678 120"
can now also be given as "monitor who_points_at 0x12345678[120]".
* ==================== FIXED BUGS ====================
The following bugs have been fixed or resolved. Note that "n-i-bz"
stands for "not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us
but never got a bugzilla entry. We encourage you to file bugs in
bugzilla (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind) rather
than mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly -- bugs that
are not entered into bugzilla tend to get forgotten about or ignored.
To see details of a given bug, visit
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=XXXXXX
where XXXXXX is the bug number as listed below.

Release 3.15.0 (12 April 2019)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.15.0 is a feature release with many improvements and the usual collection of
bug fixes.
This release supports X86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, ARM32/Linux, ARM64/Linux,
PPC32/Linux, PPC64BE/Linux, PPC64LE/Linux, S390X/Linux, MIPS32/Linux,
MIPS64/Linux, ARM/Android, ARM64/Android, MIPS32/Android, X86/Android,
X86/Solaris, AMD64/Solaris and AMD64/MacOSX 10.12. There is also preliminary
support for X86/macOS 10.13 and AMD64/macOS 10.13.
* ==================== CORE CHANGES ===================
* The XTree Massif output format now makes use of the information obtained
when specifying --read-inline-info=yes.
* amd64 (x86_64): the RDRAND and F16C insn set extensions are now supported.
* ==================== TOOL CHANGES ====================
* DHAT:
- DHAT been thoroughly overhauled, improved, and given a GUI. As a result,
it has been promoted from an experimental tool to a regular tool. Run it
with --tool=dhat instead of --tool=exp-dhat.
- DHAT now prints only minimal data when the program ends, instead writing
the bulk of the profiling data to a file. As a result, the --show-top-n
and --sort-by options have been removed.
- Profile results can be viewed with the new viewer, dh_view.html. When
a run ends, a short message is printed, explaining how to view the result.
- See the documentation for more details.
* Cachegrind:
- cg_annotate has a new option, --show-percs, which prints percentages next
to all event counts.
* Callgrind:
- callgrind_annotate has a new option, --show-percs, which prints percentages
next to all event counts.
- callgrind_annotate now inserts commas in call counts, and
sort the caller/callee lists in the call tree.
* Massif:
- The default value for --read-inline-info is now "yes" on
Linux/Android/Solaris. It is still "no" on other OS.
* Memcheck:
- The option --xtree-leak=yes (to output leak result in xtree format)
automatically activates the option --show-leak-kinds=all, as xtree
visualisation tools such as kcachegrind can in any case select what kind
of leak to visualise.
- There has been further work to avoid false positives. In particular,
integer equality on partially defined inputs (C == and !=) is now handled
better.
* ==================== OTHER CHANGES ====================
* The new option --show-error-list=no|yes displays, at the end of the run, the
list of detected errors and the used suppressions. Prior to this change,
showing this information could only be done by specifying "-v -v", but that
also produced a lot of other possibly-non-useful messages. The option -s is
equivalent to --show-error-list=yes.
* ==================== FIXED BUGS ====================
The following bugs have been fixed or resolved. Note that "n-i-bz"
stands for "not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us
but never got a bugzilla entry. We encourage you to file bugs in
bugzilla (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind) rather
than mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly -- bugs that
are not entered into bugzilla tend to get forgotten about or ignored.

Release 3.14.0 (9 October 2018)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.14.0 is a feature release with many improvements and the usual collection of
bug fixes.
This release supports X86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, ARM32/Linux, ARM64/Linux,
PPC32/Linux, PPC64BE/Linux, PPC64LE/Linux, S390X/Linux, MIPS32/Linux,
MIPS64/Linux, ARM/Android, ARM64/Android, MIPS32/Android, X86/Android,
X86/Solaris, AMD64/Solaris and AMD64/MacOSX 10.12. There is also preliminary
support for X86/macOS 10.13, AMD64/macOS 10.13.
* ==================== CORE CHANGES ===================
* The new option --keep-debuginfo=no|yes (default no) can be used to retain
debug info for unloaded code. This allows saved stack traces (e.g. for
memory leaks) to include file/line info for code that has been dlclose'd (or
similar). See the user manual for more information and known limitations.
* Ability to specify suppressions based on source file name and line number.
* Majorly overhauled register allocator. No end-user changes, but the JIT
generates code a bit more quickly now.
* ================== PLATFORM CHANGES =================
* Preliminary support for macOS 10.13 has been added.
* mips: support for MIPS32/MIPS64 Revision 6 has been added.
* mips: support for MIPS SIMD architecture (MSA) has been added.
* mips: support for MIPS N32 ABI has been added.
* s390: partial support for vector instructions (integer and string) has been
added.
* ==================== TOOL CHANGES ====================
* Helgrind: Addition of a flag
--delta-stacktrace=no|yes [yes on linux amd64/x86]
which specifies how full history stack traces should be computed.
Setting this to =yes can speed up Helgrind by 25% when using
--history-level=full.
* Memcheck: reduced false positive rate for optimised code created by Clang 6
/ LLVM 6 on x86, amd64 and arm64. In particular, Memcheck analyses code
blocks more carefully to determine where it can avoid expensive definedness
checks without loss of precision. This is controlled by the flag
--expensive-definedness-checks=no|auto|yes [auto].
* ==================== OTHER CHANGES ====================
* Valgrind is now buildable with link-time optimisation (LTO). A new
configure option --enable-lto=yes allows building Valgrind with LTO. If the
toolchain supports it, this produces a smaller/faster Valgrind (up to 10%).
Note that if you are doing Valgrind development, --enable-lto=yes massively
slows down the build process.
* ==================== FIXED BUGS ====================
The following bugs have been fixed or resolved. Note that "n-i-bz"
stands for "not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us
but never got a bugzilla entry. We encourage you to file bugs in
bugzilla (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind) rather
than mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly -- bugs that
are not entered into bugzilla tend to get forgotten about or ignored.

Release 3.13.0 (15 June 2017)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.13.0 is a feature release with many improvements and the usual collection of
bug fixes.
This release supports X86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, ARM32/Linux, ARM64/Linux,
PPC32/Linux, PPC64BE/Linux, PPC64LE/Linux, S390X/Linux, MIPS32/Linux,
MIPS64/Linux, ARM/Android, ARM64/Android, MIPS32/Android, X86/Android,
X86/Solaris, AMD64/Solaris and AMD64/MacOSX 10.12.
* ==================== CORE CHANGES ===================
* The translation cache size has been increased to keep up with the demands of
large applications. The maximum number of sectors has increased from 24 to
48. The default number of sectors has increased from 16 to 32 on all
targets except Android, where the increase is from 6 to 12.
* The amount of memory that Valgrind can use has been increased from 64GB to
128GB. In particular this means your application can allocate up to about
60GB when running on Memcheck.
* Valgrind's default load address has been changed from 0x3800'0000 to
0x5800'0000, so as to make it possible to load larger executables. This
should make it possible to load executables of size at least 1200MB.
* A massive spaceleak caused by reading compressed debuginfo files has been
fixed. Valgrind should now be entirely usable with gcc-7.0 "-gz" created
debuginfo.
* The C++ demangler has been updated.
* Support for demangling Rust symbols has been added.
* A new representation of stack traces, the "XTree", has been added. An XTree
is a tree of stacktraces with data associated with the stacktraces. This is
used by various tools (Memcheck, Helgrind, Massif) to report on the heap
consumption of your program. Reporting is controlled by the new options
--xtree-memory=none|allocs|full and --xtree-memory-file=<file>.
A report can also be produced on demand using the gdbserver monitor command
'xtmemory [<filename>]>'. The XTree can be output in 2 formats: 'callgrind
format' and 'massif format. The existing visualisers for these formats (e.g.
callgrind_annotate, KCachegrind, ms_print) can be used to visualise and
analyse these reports.
Memcheck can also produce XTree leak reports using the Callgrind file
format. For more details, see the user manual.
* ================== PLATFORM CHANGES =================
* ppc64: support for ISA 3.0B and various fixes for existing 3.0 support
* amd64: fixes for JIT failure problems on long AVX2 code blocks
* amd64 and x86: support for CET prefixes has been added
* arm32: a few missing ARMv8 instructions have been implemented
* arm64, mips64, mips32: an alternative implementation of Load-Linked and
Store-Conditional instructions has been added. This is to deal with
processor implementations that implement the LL/SC specifications strictly
and as a result cause Valgrind to hang in certain situations. The
alternative implementation is automatically enabled at startup, as required.
You can use the option --sim-hints=fallback-llsc to force-enable it if you
want.
* Support for OSX 10.12 has been improved.
* On Linux, clone handling has been improved to honour CLONE_VFORK that
involves a child stack. Note however that CLONE_VFORK | CLONE_VM is handled
like CLONE_VFORK (by removing CLONE_VM), so applications that depend on
CLONE_VM exact semantics will (still) not work.
* The TileGX/Linux port has been removed because it appears to be both unused
and unsupported.
* ==================== TOOL CHANGES ====================
* Memcheck:
- Memcheck should give fewer false positives when running optimised
Clang/LLVM generated code.
- Support for --xtree-memory and 'xtmemory [<filename>]>'.
- New command line options --xtree-leak=no|yes and --xtree-leak-file=<file>
to produce the end of execution leak report in a xtree callgrind format
file.
- New option 'xtleak' in the memcheck leak_check monitor command, to produce
the leak report in an xtree file.
* Massif:
- Support for --xtree-memory and 'xtmemory [<filename>]>'.
- For some workloads (typically, for big applications), Massif memory
consumption and CPU consumption has decreased significantly.
* Helgrind:
- Support for --xtree-memory and 'xtmemory [<filename>]>'.
- addition of client request VALGRIND_HG_GNAT_DEPENDENT_MASTER_JOIN, useful
for Ada gnat compiled applications.
* ==================== OTHER CHANGES ====================
* For Valgrind developers: in an outer/inner setup, the outer Valgrind will
append the inner guest stacktrace to the inner host stacktrace. This helps
to investigate the errors reported by the outer, when they are caused by the
inner guest program (such as an inner regtest). See README_DEVELOPERS for
more info.
* To allow fast detection of callgrind files by desktop environments and file
managers, the format was extended to have an optional first line that
uniquely identifies the format ("# callgrind format"). Callgrind creates
this line now, as does the new xtree functionality.
* File name template arguments (such as --log-file, --xtree-memory-file, ...)
have a new %n format letter that is replaced by a sequence number.
* "--version -v" now shows the SVN revision numbers from which Valgrind was
built.
* ==================== FIXED BUGS ====================
The following bugs have been fixed or resolved. Note that "n-i-bz"
stands for "not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us
but never got a bugzilla entry. We encourage you to file bugs in
bugzilla (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind) rather
than mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly -- bugs that
are not entered into bugzilla tend to get forgotten about or ignored.

Release 3.12.0 (20 October 2016)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.12.0 is a feature release with many improvements and the usual
collection of bug fixes.
This release supports X86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, ARM32/Linux,
ARM64/Linux, PPC32/Linux, PPC64BE/Linux, PPC64LE/Linux, S390X/Linux,
MIPS32/Linux, MIPS64/Linux, ARM/Android, ARM64/Android,
MIPS32/Android, X86/Android, X86/Solaris, AMD64/Solaris, X86/MacOSX
10.10 and AMD64/MacOSX 10.10. There is also preliminary support for
X86/MacOSX 10.11/12, AMD64/MacOSX 10.11/12 and TILEGX/Linux.
* ================== PLATFORM CHANGES =================
* POWER: Support for ISA 3.0 has been added
* mips: support for O32 FPXX ABI has been added.
* mips: improved recognition of different processors
* mips: determination of page size now done at run time
* amd64: Partial support for AMD FMA4 instructions.
* arm, arm64: Support for v8 crypto and CRC instructions.
* Improvements and robustification of the Solaris port.
* Preliminary support for MacOS 10.12 (Sierra) has been added.
Whilst 3.12.0 continues to support the 32-bit x86 instruction set, we
would prefer users to migrate to 64-bit x86 (a.k.a amd64 or x86_64)
where possible. Valgrind's support for 32-bit x86 has stagnated in
recent years and has fallen far behind that for 64-bit x86
instructions. By contrast 64-bit x86 is well supported, up to and
including AVX2.
* ==================== TOOL CHANGES ====================
* Memcheck:
- Added meta mempool support for describing a custom allocator which:
- Auto-frees all chunks assuming that destroying a pool destroys all
objects in the pool
- Uses itself to allocate other memory blocks
- New flag --ignore-range-below-sp to ignore memory accesses below
the stack pointer, if you really have to. The related flag
--workaround-gcc296-bugs=yes is now deprecated. Use
--ignore-range-below-sp=1024-1 as a replacement.
* DRD:
- Improved thread startup time significantly on non-Linux platforms.
* DHAT
- Added collection of the metric "tot-blocks-allocd"
* ==================== OTHER CHANGES ====================
* Replacement/wrapping of malloc/new related functions is now done not just
for system libraries by default, but for any globally defined malloc/new
related function (both in shared libraries and statically linked alternative
malloc implementations). The dynamic (runtime) linker is excluded, though.
To only intercept malloc/new related functions in
system libraries use --soname-synonyms=somalloc=nouserintercepts (where
"nouserintercepts" can be any non-existing library name).
This new functionality is not implemented for MacOS X.
* The maximum number of callers in a suppression entry is now equal to
the maximum size for --num-callers (500).
Note that --gen-suppressions=yes|all similarly generates suppressions
containing up to --num-callers frames.
* New and modified GDB server monitor features:
- Valgrind's gdbserver now accepts the command 'catch syscall'.
Note that you must have GDB >= 7.11 to use 'catch syscall' with
gdbserver.
* New option --run-cxx-freeres=<yes|no> can be used to change whether
__gnu_cxx::__freeres() cleanup function is called or not. Default is
'yes'.
* Valgrind is able to read compressed debuginfo sections in two formats:
- zlib ELF gABI format with SHF_COMPRESSED flag (gcc option -gz=zlib)
- zlib GNU format with .zdebug sections (gcc option -gz=zlib-gnu)
* Modest JIT-cost improvements: the cost of instrumenting code blocks
for the most common use case (x86_64-linux, Memcheck) has been
reduced by 10%-15%.
* Improved performance for programs that do a lot of discarding of
instruction address ranges of 8KB or less.
* The C++ symbol demangler has been updated.
* More robustness against invalid syscall parameters on Linux.
* ==================== FIXED BUGS ====================
The following bugs have been fixed or resolved. Note that "n-i-bz"
stands for "not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us
but never got a bugzilla entry. We encourage you to file bugs in
bugzilla (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind) rather
than mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly -- bugs that
