likely to report races that do not really exist.
- Helgrind will display full call stacks for both accesses involved
- in a race. This makes it far easier to identify the root causes
- of races.
+ in a race. This makes it easier to identify the root causes of
+ races.
- Limitations on the size of program that can run have been removed.
cross compile Valgrind on an x86/amd64-linux host, so that it runs
on a ppc32/64-linux target.
+* You can set the main thread's stack size at startup using the
+ new --main-stacksize= flag (subject of course to ulimit settings).
+ This is useful for running apps that need a lot of stack space.
+
+* The limitation that you can't use --trace-children=yes together
+ with --db-attach=yes has been removed.
+
* The following bugs have been fixed. Note that "n-i-bz" stands for
"not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us but
never got a bugzilla entry. We encourage you to file bugs in
bugzilla (http://bugs.kde.org/enter_valgrind_bug.cgi) rather than
mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly.
