[Valgrind-users] ==10087== Unsupported clone() flags: 0x104011

[Rachel C. (rychen) <ry...@ci...>]

Hello,

I encountered the Unsupported clone() error as following:

==10087==
==10087== Unsupported clone() flags: 0x104011
==10087==
==10087== The only supported clone() uses are:
==10087==  - via a threads library (LinuxThreads or NPTL)
==10087==  - via the implementation of fork or vfork
==10087==  - for the Quadrics Elan3 user-space driver
==10087==
==10087== Valgrind detected that your program requires
==10087== the following unimplemented functionality:
==10087==    Valgrind does not support general clone().
==10087== This may be because the functionality is hard to implement,
==10087== or because no reasonable program would behave this way,
==10087== or because nobody has yet needed it.  In any case, let us know at
==10087== www.valgrind.org and/or try to work around the problem, if you can.
==10087==
==10087== Valgrind has to exit now.  Sorry.  Bye!

I manually changed syswrap-x86-linux.c with the cloneflag added in the code, but I still get same error. Is there any other workaround for this issue? Here is the code change I have for the file syswrap-x86-linux.c.

Appreciate any input on this. Thanks for the help in advance.
