NAME

KS_valgrind_is_running, KS_valgrind_make_mem_noaccess, KS_valgrind_make_mem_undefined, KS_valgrind_make_mem_defined — Valgrind utility functions

SYNOPSIS

#include <libks/valgrind.h>

int
KS_valgrind_is_running(void);

int
KS_valgrind_make_mem_noaccess(const void *ptr, size_t len);

int
KS_valgrind_make_mem_undefined(const void *ptr, size_t len);

int
KS_valgrind_make_mem_defined(const void *ptr, size_t len);

DESCRIPTION

The Valgrind API provides functions used to interact with Valgrind.

The KS_valgrind_is_running() function can be used to determine if running under Valgrind or not.

The KS_valgrind_make_mem_noaccess() function instructs Valgrind to mark the address range [ptr, ptr + len) as inaccessible.

The KS_valgrind_make_mem_undefined() function instructs Valgrind to mark the address range [ptr, ptr + len) as accessible and containing uninitialized data.

The KS_valgrind_make_mem_defined() function instructs Valgrind to mark the address range [ptr, ptr + len) as accessible and containing initialized data.

RETURN VALUES

The KS_valgrind_make_mem_noaccess(), KS_valgrind_make_mem_undefined() and KS_valgrind_make_mem_defined() functions returns non-zero while running under Valgrind and zero otherwise.
