[Valgrind-users] trace children suggestion

[Greg H. <gr...@ho...>]

Hi,

I have a suggestion for the --trace-children option.

I'd like to see each child get logged into a separate log file, kind of the way
that strace does.

at present, what i am seeing, is that all children go into the same log file,
possible overwritting each other's valgrind info (especially with threads :)

Perhaps I missed a command line option to separate the output into separate
files.

here is the command line i'm currently using.

valgrind --log-file=gyachi --show-reachable=yes --num-callers=100
--leak-check=yes --leak-resolution=high --error-limit=no --trace-children=yes
-v -v -v gyachi

all threads log to the same file, instead of different files with PID as th
eextension.

anything i'm missing ?

thx, and best rgds,

-Greg
