Hi, on our PowerPC we start our software with mpatrol, which creates a very big logfile (105 MB). The memory allocation grows to big (twice as big as usually)....
Hi, As long as you don't use the following mpatrol options, then your program's heap will be reasonably compact, as you'd expect: NOFREE, OFLOWSIZE, PAGEALLOC ...
Hi Graeme, thanks much for your response. This is our system: CPU: MPC5200B RAM: 64 MB = 32 MB RAM + 32 MB Filesystem OS: Elinos glibc 2.3.4 We translated the...
Hi Fahri, You don't have much physical memory on your chip, so you won't have very much available to your process after the operating system eats some of it ...
Hi all, On behalf of MontaVista, CodeSourcery recently added support to mpatrol to use libunwind (http://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/) in order to provide...
Hi Daniel, Thanks for sharing the patch. I wasn't aware of the libunwind project before now and it certainly looks like something that mpatrol could make use ...
AFAIK, libunwind exists on several platforms... on hpux for PA-RISC processors for instance. Are there specific known issues which restrict it's usage with ...
... Yes, it does - it was originally designed for IA-64, which may be one of the hardest platforms to generate backtraces that I've ever encountered. Glad to...
There are some leaks in ffmpeg2theora I'm looking at. I've know about mpatrol for years -- never had to use it much... I got a copy of the ubuntu 7.10 package...
Here's a patch which stops a couple of crashes we encountered in alloca checking. The failures were brought on by using libunwind with the included test16...
Hi Daniel, [Sorry for not responding earlier - I've been on holiday for the last few weeks] Thanks for providing your patch and for all your work getting...
Hi Marty, [Sorry for the delay in responding. Between work, holidays and home life, I've only just got around to giving my Inbox a thorough examination!] The...
I have built mpatrol for CentOS 5. When I use the library statically all the features (profiling and tracing) are working fine. However with --dynamic option...
I've built Mpatrol 1.4.8 and am trying to run the tests/fail/test1.c program on our MIPS target(uclibc-2.6.15-gcc version 4.0.4) With the simplest malloc()...
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x0040e0fc in __mp_copymem (p=0x7f79d0d8, q=0x7f79d070, l=16, c=0 '\0', f=AT_MEMCPY, s=0x0, t=0x0, u=0,...
Hello Raghavendra, I believe you need to use one argument to mpatrol to get it to use the MPATROL_OPTIONS. Yes I know its unintuitive slightly -- I spent weeks...
I dont understand the mpatrol source code, but I believe you could try to debug this a little bit. For example, this one looks like erring when __mp_copymem()...
Hi Bill, Yes, Gaurang is right, the fault is 99% likely to be with the MIPS stack unwinding code. I got mpatrol working with this on a few MIPS platforms ...
Graeme, There's a libunwind library that Daniel Jacobowitz submitted to git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libunwind, on 02-05-2008. The lastest stable release of...
Graeme, Apparently, I need the libunwind library updates done by Daniel Jacobowitz on 2008-02-05. When I try and get the snapshot, I get a tar.gz file that's...
Graeme, Thanks for the timely response. Daniel said you were working on a new release, which you may release in a few weeks? Would the MIPS patch be applied...
Hi folks, After six and a half years of waiting the 1.5.0 release of mpatrol has just been completed and released to the CVS repository at SourceForge, ...
Hi Bill, I'm afraid I can't help you with the libunwind problems you've been having (not knowing much about it myself), but I've just released mpatrol 1.5.0 ...
Graeme, It looks like here hasn't been a new release of libunwind with merged development changes in it since 2005-04-20. So, I'm not sure which development...
Bill, As I has said in the other email, MontaVista has made modifications to mpatrol & libunwind to support MIPS platforms. They include them in their latest...
Hi Bill, ... Yes, the ARM port is very preliminary, meaning that it should build and run on ARM, but not support all advanced features, especially stack...
