[Valgrind-developers] deadlock on futex inside Valgrind for MIPS/Linux architecture

[Irfan Ul H. <irf...@se...>]

Dear all,

We are currently in the process of porting Valgrind for MIPS/Linux Platform.
Everything else works, except that multithreaded applications using nptl
threading library reach the futex deadlock.

Google helped us find reference to the bug listed on link:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=299514

We are facing exactly same problem. Note that when we run Valgrind under gdb
and add a breakpoint just before child thread's exit and then continue, our
program exits normally, producing the expected output. However, the program
running directly under Valgrind does not produce expected output. Any idea
how to fix this part?
