RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Kim van der Riet 2010-05-24 12:28:19 UTC 
When using the valgrind memory tool to check for leaks, all my programs fail with:

This is new for RHEL-6; RHEL-5 does not do this. Valgrind is used as part of the continuous build checking in qpid, this is failing all tests on which it is used on RHEL-6. I even tried this on a null program vgchk.cpp:

int main(int, char**){}

compiled it with g++ -o vgchk vgchk.cpp, and ran valgrind ./vgchk, I get:

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2010-05-24 12:33:37 UTC 
You need valgrind-3.5.0-18.el6 if you have glibc 2.12* installed.
Note You need to log in before you can comment on or make changes to this bug.
