Wo-ho! This one saves my day! Valgrind's smiling at me again. :) I. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Crypto++ Users" Google Group.

It returns results just for Valgrind. https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=__all__&content=illegal%20instruction&no_redirect=1&product=valgrind If you start running searches on your own, be sure to select All issues (open + closed).

I'm fairly certain a reinstall is going to be a waste of your time, but I could be wrong. You might try searching for the opcodes that are causing the problem. They have probably already been reported (I reported about a half dozen or so myself). Also see https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=__all__&content=illegal%20instruction You might be able to work around it by removing the `-march=native` from CXXFLAGS. Open GNUmakefile and delete the line that adds it. However, you will loose a fair amount of performance because the source files depend on some of the options included in `-march=native`. You best bet at this point is probably work from Master. After 5.6.5 we changed the model to Base+SIMD. Base C++ files are fine without an ISA, and SIMD files get an ISA added when needed. As far as I know, lack of `-march=native` no longer has a material affect on performance. Base+SIMD also had the effect of side-stepping most the missing VEX codecs. I don't recall experiencing the problem since we switched to Base+SIMD. Jeff -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Crypto++ Users" Google Group.

I had built valgrind from the "current" source, ie version 3.13 from June 2017. So now I've upgraded to valgrind-3.14.0.GIT (cloned ten minutes ago) but it yields the same result. I'm hitting illegal instructions in both "cryptest.exe" as well as my own software (during ECDSA key generation). But if nobody else can confirm this I'll probably either re-install and start from a scratch and/or perform a memory check with another tool and see what comes up.

We disabled a few algorithms ASM impl due to Valgrind findings and we are working to re-enable them. I'm working on re-enabling some of them right now. See, for example, https://stackoverflow.com/q/47533475/608639. We hit those illegal instructions often during testing. The problem is Debian and Fedora provide a Valgrind that is a tad bit old. New processors give Valgrind a lot of problems because the VEX decoder can't handle a lot of code being generated by GCC 6 and 7. We work around it by building Valgrind from sources. Its fairly easy once you install the packages "automake autoconf libtool". Also see http://valgrind.org/downloads/repository.html. Also note that last time I checked even Valgrind-Git had some missing VEX code, but it is not as bad as a distro's version. Usually Fedora catches an illegal instruction, but Debian is OK.

Crypto++ 5.6.5 and Valgrind
Dear All, I've just upgraded from an older version to Crypto++ 5.6.5 and my Valgrind is seriously unhappy about it. Even the "cryptest.exe v" command crashes with "Illegal instruction" (details on request) when calling it with valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes ./cryptest.exe v as suggested here: https://www.cryptopp.com/wiki/Profiling Could anybody confirm or is that just me seeing that? System is Debian 4.9.0-3-686-pae, gcc (Debian 6.3.0-18) 6.3.0 20170516 in a Virtual Machine (VMWare).
