Valgrind:C/C++分析工具
Valgrind是開源的測試框架，可以用來動態分析記憶體配置、快取使用、多執行序bug。安裝
sudo pacman -Sy valgrind基本用法
$ valgrind 程式名稱 args預設會是用memcheck工具分析，在這個工具下她會匯出heap使用、memory leak、還有記憶體使用錯誤的部份backtrace。
進階用法
$ valgrind --tool=toolname 程式名稱 args這是valgrind最有方便的地方，valgrind旗下有九個使用者端的工具，和幾個開發者工具。
1. Memcheck:記憶體錯誤分析工具。
2.Cachegrind:預測你的cache使用。
3.Callgrind:分析程式的function call次數，還有call graph，可以幫助快取分析。
4.Helgrind:多執行序錯誤分析工具，有race condition檢測功能。
5.DRD:另一個多執行序分析工具。
6.Massif:分析heap的使用，在一個程式執行中她會測量多次。
7.DHAT:另一種heap分析工具。
8.SGcheck:實驗性的全域變數與stack分析工具。
9.BBV:實驗性SimPoint相關工具。
這些工具比較常用的是前七個。接下來看一下個別的使用。
memcheck
$ valgrind --tool=memcheck 程式名稱 args 首先我先寫一個廢物code來做實驗。以下code new完之後沒有delete。
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int *ptr;
ptr = new int;
*ptr = 2;
cout << *ptr << endl;
}

definitely lost: 4 bytes in 1 blocks，int是4 byte，我new完之後沒有回收所以memory leak了4 byte，不過由於這程式很間單所以很好找到錯誤來源，當程式變得複雜時我們可以加上--leak-check=full來找到源頭，來看一加完的結果。==14268== Memcheck, a memory error detector

Cachegrind
$valgrind --tool=cachegrind 它可以分析你程式的快取優化程度。它的結果總共有以下類別。以下擷取至valgrind manual
- I cache reads (Ir, which equals the number of instructions executed), I1 cache read misses (I1mr) and LL cache instruction read misses (ILmr).
- D cache reads (Dr, which equals the number of memory reads), D1 cache read misses (D1mr), and LL cache data read misses (DLmr).
- D cache writes (Dw, which equals the number of memory writes), D1 cache write misses (D1mw), and LL cache data write misses (DLmw).
- Conditional branches executed (Bc) and conditional branches mispredicted (Bcm).
- Indirect branches executed (Bi) and indirect branches mispredicted (Bim).

for (int j = 0 ; j < 1000 ; j++ ){
a[i][j] = i+j;
}

Callgrind
用來分析整個程式的function call數目。$valgrind --tool=callgrind 程式名稱 這會開始執行你的程式，通常會執行的比較慢。在執行過程中，你可以透過
$callgrind_control -e -b或是$callgrind_control -b 來看程式當下執行的function call backtrace。以下是費氏數列遞迴版結果。 PID 6989: ./fb

callgrind_annotate callgrind.out.pid 來看結果，另一是用KCachegrind (KDE應用程式)。以下是KCachegrind結果，可以看到左下角的框框，fb被call了1+331160280次(第一層call+第二層以上call)。
helgrind
$valgrind --tool=helgrind 這次我們使用官方範例。
#include <pthread.h>
int var = 0;
void* child_fn ( void* arg ) {
var++; /* Unprotected relative to parent */ /* this is line 6 */
return NULL;
}
int main ( void ) {
pthread_t child;
pthread_create(&child, NULL, child_fn, NULL);
var++; /* Unprotected relative to child */ /* this is line 13 */
pthread_join(child, NULL);
return 0;

Massif
valgrind --tool=massif 程式名稱 他是用來分析data segement 中heap使用。
heap在data sgment通常是由malloc等函式創造的，是適當的優化減少heap可以paging和盡量避開使用swap space。
在執行完massif後會有一個massif.out.pid檔，可以透過ms_print來印出。不過一般高速運行的程式，他的malloc和free執行很快，在輸出圖形的時候看起來是一條線，所以可以透過
valgrind --tool=massif --time-unit=B 程式名稱 讓massif透過allocate與deallcoate記憶體大小作圖。範例程式如下。#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
int main()
{
malloc(1000);
int* a[10];
for (int i = 0 ; i < 10 ; i++ )
a[i] = malloc(1000);
for (int i = 0 ; i < 10 ; i++ )
free(a[i]);
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Command: ./heap
Massif arguments: --time-unit=B
ms_print arguments: massif.out.2213
