Re: [Valgrind-users] Address tracing with Valgrind

[Julian S. <js...@ac...>]

Writing a skin to do this should be very easy.  I suggest you
start with the lackey skin.  Or maybe the cacheprof one.
You can instrument the basic blocks in flexible ways as they
are passed to your skin.  One simple thing to do is to call
function(s) of your choice when LOADs / STOREs, and their
FPU equivalents, happen.  All in all a brilliant piece of
engineering from Nick N.
