[Valgrind-developers] Valgrind now supports MMX insns

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

Hi.  I'm an author of valgrind, a memory debugger which I believe at
least one person has used on FlightGear.

We've just extended valgrind to handle MMX instructions, and it works
on some simple-ish test cases.  I was wondering if FlightGear can be 
configured to use MMX, and, if so, whether anyone would care to try
running such a configuration on valgrind.  It would be useful for
us, to gain early feedback on our MMX work.  It might be useful for
you if MMXised code is something you want to debug.

If you want to try this, you need the valgrind cvs head via anoncvs at
sourceforge.net.  Mail me (js...@ac...) for help on getting + 
building it.

We hope to find the time, soon, to attempt support of SSE/SSE2 instructions.

If you know of any other projects which might like to try MMX on Valgrind,
please feel free to pass this message along.

Thanks,

J
