.GCC Toolset 10: Valgrind erroneously reports IBM z15 architecture support
Valgrind does not support certain IBM z15 processors features yet, but a bug in GCC Toolset 10 Valgrind causes it to report z15 support when run on a z15-capable system. As a consequence, software that tries to use z15 features when available cannot run under Valgrind. To work around this problem, when running on a z15 processor, use the system version of Valgrind accessible via /usr/bin/valgrind. This build will not report z15 support.

While it would certainly be desirable from a maintenance viewpoint to have the fix backported from the baseos version of valgrind, from a user viewpoint it doesn't seem worth it at this stage. The baseos version works, so a "known issue" can easily direct them to that one, if they encounter this problem. So while we could turn the process crank, and try to get an exception process started, the availability of a simple workaround makes that effort/disruption unnecessary. Reassigning this to 8.5.0. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
