Bug ID: 432510
Summary: RFE: ENOMEM fault injection mode
Product: valgrind
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: memcheck
Assignee: jsew...@acm.org
Reporter: f...@redhat.com
Target Milestone: ---
It would be helpful to test programs' resilience to ENOMEM conditions under
valgrind. While testing code under /usr/bin/prlimit -d=XXXX can help, valgrind
relaxes these ulimits for itself and for the emulated processes. That hides
this class of problem.
It would be nice if the intercepted malloc operations can be configured to fail
at conditions such as a particular total allocation, or randomly with some
probability.
