Hello there!
I have been having some trouble getting Valgrind to work on an embedded
platform we are using and have been a bit confused by the supported platform
listing. On the website it says the following in the list of supported
platforms (http://valgrind.org/info/platforms.html):
"ARM/Linux: up to and including ARMv7."
I read this to mean that Valgrind supports all versions of ARM from v2 to v7
across all processor families, but I am not so sure that this reading is
correct.
I have found many old references online to ARMv5 not being supported by
Valgrind at all, and the 'valgrind' package in OpenEmbedded refuses to build
for anything other than only ARMv7 exactly (I think it is confused to refuse to
build on anything either older or newer than v7). The language used on the
supported platform page is a little confusing to me I guess, since it doesn't
mention the specific ARM processor families (Cortex, "Legacy", the newer
looking hybrid 32/64 *-A architecture).
Can someone who has worked on the code clarify if Valgrind is in fact expected
to work on an ARMv5?
Thanks a lot for your help!
