When a program is run under Valgrind's supervision, all -reads and writes of memory are checked, and calls to -malloc/new/free/delete are intercepted. As a result, Valgrind can -detect a lot of problems that are otherwise very hard to -find/diagnose. +Valgrind is an instrumentation framework for building dynamic analysis +tools. 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 (memcheck, the default tool), two thread error +detectors (helgrind and drd), a cache and branch-prediction profiler +(cachegrind), a call-graph generating cache and branch-prediction +profiler (callgrind), and a heap profiler (massif). %package devel Summary: Development files for valgrind @@ -455,6 +458,9 @@ echo ===============END TESTING=============== %endif %changelog +* Wed Apr 12 2017 Mark Wielaard +- Update description as suggested by Ivo Raisr. + * Tue Mar 28 2017 Mark Wielaard - 3.12.0-8 - Add valgrind-3.12.0-powerpc-register-pair.patch - Add valgrind-3.12.0-ppc64-isa-3_00.patch
