Re: [Valgrind-users] Valgrind failing to run applypatch in android recovery

[Shrinivas S. <shr...@gm...>]

Hi All,

I am a new bee to run valgrind,
I am trying to run android applypatch (
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bootable/recovery/+/android-5.1.0_r3/applypatch/applypatch.c
)
Which internally uses libbz.so, (/external/bzip2)

but surprisingly with valgrind it is failing at decompress of patch file.
line number 817 (
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/bzip2/+/android-5.1.0_r3/bzlib.c
)

but if I run applypatch normally, it does its work properly, and returns
success,

but when I run it with valgrind, it enters into the while (true) loop,
first line printf statements are printing. but later after some time it
waits there and fails saying bz error -4.

I have been running with this problem from many days now, when i searched
in net, found some valgrind hang issues reported in 3.10.0 version, which
is what i am using currently.

I found this patch which said it fixes some hang issue:(
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.debugging.valgrind.devel/28264)

but dint fix my problem, when I tried it.

Please suggest me, If i am doing any wrong
