Hi Matthias, I was affected by this bug and can confirm, that applying the linked patch fixes the issue on ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus) on a i7-6600U.
It would be nice if the patched could be backported to Xenial as it's tedious to recompile valgrind on every update to get it functional again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1501545 Title: Valgrind fails on rdrand when the cpu supports it (haswell) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/valgrind/+bug/1501545/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
