| Mark Wielaard | 2017-05-17 11:39:39 UTC | Doc Text | Rebase package(s) to version: 3.12.0 (from 3.11.0 in RHEL 7.3). Highlights, important fixes, or notable enhancements: Architecture specific changes: - Support for power9 (ISA 3.0) has been added. - Partial support for AMD FMA4 instructions has been added. - aarch64: Support for v8 crypto and CRC instructions has been added. Generic tool changes: - memcheck has a new flag --ignore-range-below-sp to ignore memory accesses below the stack pointer. This is a generic replacement for the now deprecated --workaround-gcc296-bugs=yes (which is equivalent to --ignore-range-below-sp=1024-1) - The --gen-suppressions=yes option now generates suppressions containing up to --num-callers frames. And the maximum number of callers in a suppression entry is now equal to the maximum size for --num-callers (500). Performance improvements: - The cost of instrumenting code blocks for the most common use case (memcheck on x86_64) has been reduced by 10%-15%. - Improved performance for programs that do a lot of discarding of instruction address ranges of 8KB or less. |

Notable changes include: * A new option "--ignore-range-below-sp" has been added to the memcheck tool to ignore memory accesses below the stack pointer. This is a generic replacement for the now deprecated option "--workaround-gcc296-bugs=yes". * The "--gen-suppressions=yes" option now generates suppressions containing amount of frames up to the value given by the "--num-callers" option. The maximum number of callers in a suppression entry is now equal to the maximum size for value given by the "--num-callers" option. * The cost of instrumenting code blocks for the most common use case, the *memcheck* tool on the AMD64 and Intel 64 architectures, has been reduced. * Performance has been improved for debugging programs which discard a lot of instruction address ranges of 8KB or less. * Support for IBM Power 9 (ISA 3.0) architecture has been added. * Partial support for AMD FMA4 instructions has been added. * Support for cryptographic and CRC instructions on the 64-bit ARM architecture version 8 has been added. | ||
