PATCH 21.5 I've had this patch sitting around for AGES. It's about time to show it to somebody. This patch adds rudimentary support for valgrind on-the-fly memory leak checks to XEmacs. When I first wrote it, I couldn't use it successfully, because valgrind always reported a segfault and killed the XEmacs process before I could get around to invoking either of the functions added by this patch. I WAS using the magic valgrind option that is supposed to make it ignore the deliberate segfaults caused by the garbage collector. I'll try again now and see if the situation has improved. Much deeper integration with valgrind is possible. First I have to get a machine where a valgrinded XEmacs runs faster than a snail, however. diff -r c064d7197712 ChangeLog --- a/ChangeLog Sat Apr 18 03:24:48 2009 +0900 +++ b/ChangeLog Fri May 15 11:54:50 2009 -0600 ＠＠ -1,3 +1,7 ＠＠ +2009-05-15 Jerry James <james(a)xemacs.org&gt; + + * configure.ac: Add --with-valgrind option. + 2009-02-11 Jerry James <james(a)xemacs.org&gt; * config.guess: diff -r c064d7197712 configure.ac --- a/configure.ac Sat Apr 18 03:24:48 2009 +0900 +++ b/configure.ac Fri May 15 11:54:50 2009 -0600 ＠＠ -1024,6 +1024,9 ＠＠ XE_MERGED_ARG([purify], AS_HELP_STRING([--with-purify],[Support memory debugging using Purify.]), [], []) +XE_MERGED_ARG([valgrind], + AS_HELP_STRING([--with-valgrind],[Support memory debugging using Valgrind.]), + [], []) dnl ------------------------------------------------------------------------- dnl Final command line argument checks. ＠＠ -5918,6 +5921,7 ＠＠ test "$enable_quick_build" = "yes" && AC_DEFINE(QUICK_BUILD) test "$with_purify" = "yes" && AC_DEFINE(PURIFY) test "$with_quantify" = "yes" && AC_DEFINE(QUANTIFY) +test "$with_valgrind" = "yes" && AC_DEFINE(USE_VALGRIND) test "$with_pop" = "yes" && AC_DEFINE(MAIL_USE_POP) test "$with_kerberos" = "yes" && AC_DEFINE(KERBEROS) test "$with_hesiod" = "yes" && AC_DEFINE(HESIOD) ＠＠ -6236,6 +6240,7 ＠＠ echo " WARNING: Error checking is on by default for XEmacs beta releases." echo " WARNING: ---------------------------------------------------------" fi +test "$with_valgrind" = yes && echo " Compiling in support for memory debugging with Valgrind." echo "" ) | tee -a Installation dnl echo "The above configure report is appended to \"Installation\" file." diff -r c064d7197712 src/ChangeLog --- a/src/ChangeLog Sat Apr 18 03:24:48 2009 +0900 +++ b/src/ChangeLog Fri May 15 11:54:50 2009 -0600 ＠＠ -1,3 +1,10 ＠＠ +2009-05-15 Jerry James <james(a)xemacs.org&gt; + + * alloc.c (Fvalgrind_leak_check): New function. + (Fvalgrind_quick_leak_check): Ditto. + * config.h.in (USE_VALGRIND): Defined by configure if + --with-valgrind is supplied. + 2009-03-08 Ville Skyttä <scop(a)xemacs.org&gt; * glyphs-gtk.c (init_image_instance_from_gdk_pixmap): Apply the diff -r c064d7197712 src/alloc.c --- a/src/alloc.c Sat Apr 18 03:24:48 2009 +0900 +++ b/src/alloc.c Fri May 15 11:54:50 2009 -0600 ＠＠ -71,6 +71,9 ＠＠ #ifdef DOUG_LEA_MALLOC #include <malloc.h> #endif +#ifdef USE_VALGRIND +#include <valgrind/memcheck.h> +#endif EXFUN (Fgarbage_collect, 0); ＠＠ -4690,6 +4693,29 ＠＠ } #endif /* ALLOC_TYPE_STATS */ +#ifdef USE_VALGRIND +DEFUN ("valgrind-leak-check", Fvalgrind_leak_check, 0, 0, 0, /* +Ask valgrind to perform a memory leak check. +The results of the leak check are sent to stderr. +*/ + ()) +{ + VALGRIND_DO_LEAK_CHECK; + return Qnil; +} + +DEFUN ("valgrind-quick-leak-check", Fvalgrind_quick_leak_check, 0, 0, 0, /* +Ask valgrind to perform a quick memory leak check. +This just prints a summary of leaked memory, rather than all the details. +The results of the leak check are sent to stderr. +*/ + ()) +{ + VALGRIND_DO_QUICK_LEAK_CHECK; + return Qnil; +} +#endif /* USE_VALGRIND */ + void recompute_funcall_allocation_flag (void) { ＠＠ -5070,6 +5096,10 ＠＠ #endif DEFSUBR (Ftotal_memory_usage); DEFSUBR (Fconsing_since_gc); +#ifdef USE_VALGRIND + DEFSUBR (Fvalgrind_leak_check); + DEFSUBR (Fvalgrind_quick_leak_check); +#endif } void diff -r c064d7197712 src/config.h.in --- a/src/config.h.in Sat Apr 18 03:24:48 2009 +0900 +++ b/src/config.h.in Fri May 15 11:54:50 2009 -0600 ＠＠ -648,6 +648,10 ＠＠ It is only intended for use by the developers. */ #undef PURIFY +/* Define USE_VALGRIND to compile valgrind hints into the code. + It is only intended for use by the developers. */ +#undef USE_VALGRIND + /* Define EXTERNAL_WIDGET to compile support for using the editor as a widget within another program. */ #undef EXTERNAL_WIDGET -- Jerry James http://www.jamezone.org/ _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Patches mailing list XEmacs-Patches(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-patches
