[Valgrind-users] valgrind 1.9.6 and named pipes

[Dima B. <di...@cs...>]

Hi,

I am having some trouble with valgrind 1.9.6 and named pipes.  In the
application when I create the named pipes, mkfifo, the application blocks
indefinitely in the open call if it is run by valgrind.  Without valgrind
it works as it supposed to.

I am not sure why and what is causing the problems.  I have not used
previous versions of valgrind with named pipes so I don't know if things
were broken or not before.

Thanks for any and all help.
