You may want to look at the 3.8.1 release notes.

3.8.1 is a bug fix release. It fixes some assertion failures in 3.8.0 that occur moderately frequently in real use cases, adds support for some missing instructions on ARM, and fixes a deadlock condition on MacOSX. If you package or deliver 3.8.0 for others to use, you might want to consider upgrading to 3.8.1 instead. See the release notes for details, including a list of bug fixes.

This release supports X86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, ARM/Linux, PPC32/Linux, PPC64/Linux, S390X/Linux, MIPS32/Linux, ARM/Android (2.3 and later), X86/Android (4.0 and later), X86/Darwin and AMD64/Darwin (Mac OS X 10.6, 10.7 and to a very limited extent, 10.8).


Valkyrie 2.0.0

valkyrie 2.0.0 (tar.bz2) [260Kb] - 21 October 2010.
md5: a411dfb803f548dae5f988de0160aeb5

Valkyrie is a Qt4-based GUI for the Valgrind 3.6.x and 3.7.x series, that works for the Memcheck and Helgrind tools. It also has an XML merging tool for Memcheck outputs (vk_logmerge). This tarball is known to build and work with valgrind-3.6.0 and valgrind-3.7.0.

This version of Valkyrie does not support any version of Valgrind prior to 3.6.0. If you want to use Valkyrie with an older Valgrind version, we recommend you instead upgrade your Valgrind to 3.6.0 and use this version of Valkyrie.


RPMs / Binaries

We do not distribute binaries or RPMs. The releases available on this website contain the source code and have to be compiled in order to be installed on your system. Many Linux distributions come with valgrind these days, so if you do not want to compile your own, go to your distribution's download site.

System Requirements

Programs running under Valgrind run significantly more slowly, and use much more memory -- e.g. more than twice as much as normal under the Memcheck tool. Therefore, it's best to use Valgrind on the most capable machine you can get your hands on.
