[Valgrind-users] Help compiling Valgrind 3.19.0 on Solaris 11

[Shane B. <sha...@ou...>]

Hi,

I am trying to compile Valgrind 3.19.0 on Solaris 11. The compilation fails.

Here are the commands I have run:
wget --no-check-certificate https://sourceware.org/pub/valgrind/valgrind-3.19.0.tar.bz2
tar xjf valgrind-3.19.0.tar.bz2
cd valgrind-3.19.0
MAKE=gmake ./configure --enable-only64bit
gmake

Once I run "gmake" then the build runs for a while, and then it fails:

gcc -m64 -O2 -g -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wcast-align -Wcast-qual -Wwrite-strings -Wempty-body -Wformat -Wformat-signedness -Wformat-security -Wignored-qualifiers -Wmissing-parameter-type -Wlogical-op -Wimplicit-fallthrough=2 -Wold-style-declaration -finline-functions -fno-stack-protector -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-builtin   -O -g -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fpic -fno-builtin -fno-ipa-icf  -nodefaultlibs -shared -Wl,-z,interpose,-z,initfirst -Wl,-M,../solaris/vgpreload-solaris.mapfile -m64 -Wl,-soname -Wl,vgpreload_core.so.0  -o vgpreload_core-amd64-solaris.so vgpreload_core_amd64_solaris_so-vg_preloaded.o

I have gcc version 7.3.0 and gmake version 4.2.1.

Please let me know any other details I should share to help identify why my build is failing.

Is it possible I am missing some headers or libs I need to install to build successfully?

Is there an earlier release of Valgrind that is known to successfully compile on Solaris 11 that I could try building instead?

Thanks,
Shane

P.S. I apologize if my email client inserts any HTML formatting, I don't know how to prevent this.
