[Valgrind-users] memcheck tool related query for multithreaded application

[richa <ri...@te...>]

Hi All,
 
I have written the multithreaded server application, a thread will get spawn
to process the client request.
The thread will get terminated once processed the request. 
I am using g++ compiler for compiling my application of version
libc-2.2.4-13 in linux 7.2 
The code is compiled with "-g" option as well as with pthread and other
relevant libraries.
Load test result is the memory leak. 
 
I am using the valgrind-3.3.0 memcheck tool to analyze the memory leak, the
option for using memcheck tool is:
 
valgrind --tool=memcheck  -v  --trace-children=yes  --num-callers=20
--leak-check=yes --leak-resolution=high --show-reachable=yes
--workaround-gcc296-bugs=yes <binary name with full path> 2> MemoryLeak.log
&
 
once I execute the command mentioned above, I will send the client request
to the server and once the server processed the request, I am doing:
pkill memcheck
and Valgrind will dump the output into the MemoryLeak.log file.
 
I am not able to identify the leak in my application files else I am getting
the output as valgrind application file as:
malloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:207).
 
The memory leak output should indicate my application file name instead of
valgrind application file name. 
Please help me in solving the problem.
 
Thanks in advance,
Richa
