Possible false positives

Open giladfrid009 opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug I'm getting possibly false positives for memory leaks (or real leaks, not from my executable). I've analyzed my exe with valgrind and it did't find any leaks, but with dr. memory i'm leak reports.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Precise command line for running the application: drmemory mtm_buggy.exe

  • The problem goes away when running in light mode (pass -light to Dr. Memory)
  • The problem goes away when running with the option -leaks_only
  • ERROR #2 goes away when running with the option -no_count_leaks
  • The analysis crashes when running with the option -no_track_allocs
  • Passing -debug -dr_debug -pause_at_assert, does not change the outcome (leaks persist)

Expected behavior No memory leaks found.
