Hi, glibc version is baked into default suppressions file at Valgrind build time. This becomes a problem when glibc is updated, or when Valgrind installation is transferred to another machine. Other than that, the same Valgrind binary seems to work perfectly well with different versions of glibc (we tested 2.7, 2.10, 2.11). Could these suppressions be made a little more generic, excluding the minor version number from object names? A line like obj:/lib*/ld-2.*.so* instead of obj:/lib*/ld-2.11*.so* still seems specific enough not to match anything unexpected. Alternatively, we could include suppressions for all reasonable versions of glibc at the same time. I can prepare the patch if either option is acceptable. |
