It's just a name for debugging purposes, look in coregrind/m_hashtable.c for details. I'd use a different name for each VG_(HT_construct)() call site. > 2) For VG_(malloc), I don't think I will be using the cc parameter, is > it safe just to just use the same cc value everywhere (like "foo") This is used for profiling purposes. Again, just use a different string for each call site.
