the places that normal users will see:
- command line: --tool=foo (although --skin=foo still works)
- docs: removed all traces (included renaming coregrind_skins.html to
coregrind_tools.html)
- in the usage messages
- in error messages
Also did in in some places that I judged were unlikely to cause clashes with
existing workspaces:
- in the header comments of many files (eg. "This file is part of Memcheck, a
Valgrind tool for...")
- in the regtests script
- in the .supp files
- in AUTHORS
- in README_MISSING_SYSCALL_OR_IOCTL
Also update the AUTHORS file to mention Jeremy.

<h2>1 CoreCheck</h2>
|
|
|
|
CoreCheck is a very simple tool for Valgrind. It adds no instrumentation to
|
|
the program's code, and only reports the few kinds of errors detected by
|
|
Valgrind's core. It is mainly of use for Valgrind's developers for debugging
|
|
and regression testing.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The errors detected are those found by the core when
|
|
<code>VG_(needs).core_errors</code> is set. These include:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pthread API errors (many; eg. unlocking a non-locked mutex)<p>
|
|
<li>Silly arguments to <code>malloc() </code> et al (eg. negative size)<p>
|
|
<li>Invalid file descriptors to blocking syscalls <code>read()</code> and
|
|
<code>write()</code><p>
|
|
<li>Bad signal numbers passed to <code>sigaction()</code><p>
|
|
<li>Attempts to install signal handler for <code>SIGKILL</code> or
|
|
<code>SIGSTOP</code> <p>
|
|
</ul>
