Package: valgrind
Version: 1:3.6.1-5
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
I get false positives with a simple use of strspn:
$ cat >foo.c <<'EOF'
#include <string.h>
int main(void)
{
char buf[32];
strcpy(buf, "foo");
if (strspn(buf, "o"))
return 0;
return 1;
}
EOF
$ gcc -g -o foo foo.c
$ valgrind ./foo
...
==5854== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)
==5854== at 0x4B3623E: __strspn_sse42 (strspn-c.c:142)
==5854== by 0x400509: main (foo.c:8)
...
Looks like it was reported elsewhere with a patch a few months ago:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=270925
I tried the version of valgrind in experimental, but it shows the same
behavior.
