[Valgrind-users] Missing functions in stack trace

[Rao G. <ra...@t7...>]

Hi

Sometimes when valgrind reports "invalid write" error, it gives me a stack 
trace but there are functions missing from that stack trace. If I use 
--gdb-attach=yes, gdb is also confused about the stack and when I do "up", 
it goes from the lower level function to a function 2 levels higher 
instead of the next higher level function. I tried increasing num-callers 
to 50 in the command line invocation of valgrind. Any ideas on how to fix 
this? or is it a bug in valgrind.

Thanks for your help
Rao
