            Bug ID: 502679
           Summary: Use LTP for testing valgrind
    Classification: Developer tools
           Product: valgrind

          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

proposed patch

I propose to use the Linux Test Project (LTP) for testing valgrind.   Attached
is a patch that adds a new Makefile target make ltpchecks (modelled after make
auxchecks).  It compiles the LTP testsuite sources, then runs the LTP syscall
tests with valgrind and without it, checks for errors, and reports them.

For context, I've recently used a test script *similar* to this proposed patch,
and uploaded resulting test logs to the Bunsen tool. This hopefully gives some
idea how the resulting logs looks like, and what kind of issues can the test
catch:
