Well, the same happens with linux epoll and valgrind. The thing is, not all of the memory being passed into the syscall needs to have been touched. Valgrind hasn't any insight into the -structure- you've passed in. What you can do is use the valgrind hooks to tell valgrind which bits of the memory are actually meant to be used (ie, what the parameters in the kqueue call translate to) and then see if you get errors, or do what we did in Squid - just tell valgrind to ignore that entire parameter :) Adrian _______________________________________________ Libevent-users mailing list Libevent-users@monkey.org http://monkeymail.org/mailman/listinfo/libevent-users
