Hi,

So, I have been unable to get valgrind to do anything.

I install valgrind using yum and valgrind.x86_64 1:3.3.0-3 is installed.

Next I run % valgrind ./testprogram (where testprogram is an executable)
valgrind: failed to start tool 'memcheck' for platform 'x86-linux': No such file or directory

I have no clue what is going on here. So I
% locate memcheck
/usr/lib64/valgrind/amd64-linux/memcheck
/usr/lib64/valgrind/amd64-linux/vgpreload_memcheck.so

Strange: my platform is an Intel (this is a Thinkpad T61), so why this amd64-linux.

In any case, can someone please help me about my error, if any?


Multi-lib issues.

You are trying to evaluate a 32 bit binary on a 64 bit version of memcheck -- no worky.

You might try installing valgrind.i386 as well, but I am not certain if valgrind is multi-lib capable, and I don't have a x86_64 system available at this moment.

Good luck!

PS: 64bitness on x86 was developed by AMD and EMULATED/CLONED by intel (EM64T).
Today, AMD64 is roughly equivalent to EM64T, or vice versa.
