Hello Valgrinders, I have some questions related to --xml=yes mode:
1) Why is it not possible to turn off leak check? The --leak-check=no option will not show any effect. Sadly this is not even documented as far as I can see, nor do I get an error telling me that mixing these options is not possible. To me it looks as if in xml=yes mode, you always have --leak-check=full enabled, just without any kind of summary (the XML format has no elements for that). Considering how the =full mode slows down valgrind runs, I wonder why this is not possible to turn of? I have the feeling that there are other options that have different default settings and/or no effect in --xml=yes mode, what are those? Where is this documented? 2) The valgrind documentation says that one should use the following option: --child-silent-after-fork=yes This essentially means debugging applications that fork is not possible in XML mode? Why couldn't simply another file be created, or a second connection to the socket be created? I mean I don't have much knowledge in this area, but a web server runs on $server:80 and multiple clients can connect to that, or? Couldn't this be done in valgrind (==client) as well? 3) Similar to 2) I wonder why it's not possible to create suppressions or attach a debugger in xml mode. Basically this would also mean: valgrind asks some server via socket whether to attach debugger or create suppression at given position. Is it simply not implemented or was there a reason for this?
