Revision history for Test-Valgrind
+1.19 2016-08-01 21:00 UTC
+ + Fix : valgrind 3.1x will no longer be treated as valgrind 3.1.0,
+ causing the wrong command line arguments to be used.
+ Thanks Lucas Nussbaum and Gregor Herrmann from Debian for
+ reporting and providing feedback (Debian bug 832833).
+ + Fix : The number of callers is now capped at 24, as this is the
+ maximum number supported by valgrind. An higher number of
+ frames could lead to the generation of unusable suppressions
+ in both old and recent versions of valgrind.
+
+1.18 2015-11-16 15:00 UTC
+ + Chg : A new Test::Valgrind::Version class has been added to represent
+ valgrind version numbers, instead of lazily relying on
+ version.pm.
+ + Fix : The detection of the valgrind executable has been slightly
+ improved to cover some edge cases.
+ + Tst : Test failures on Windows, or with old versions of Test::More or
+ File::Temp, have been addressed.
+ Thanks Paul Howarth for reporting.
+ + Tst : A few extraneous warnings displayed by some tests when they
+ were run with old versions of Test::Harnes were silenced.
+
+1.17 2015-11-13 13:50 UTC
+ + Fix : [RT #108873] : Tests fail due to "Text file busy"
+ Thanks Paul Howarth for reporting.
+
+1.16 2015-11-12 23:30 UTC
+ + Chg : The Test::Valgrind tests will now be skipped when the default
+ and user-supplied suppressions files do not refer to any perl-
+ related symbol. This behaviour can be overridden by passing
+ 'allow_no_supp => 1' to Test::Valgrind->import.
+ This fixes the following RT issue.
+ + Fix : [RT #101934] : t/20-bad.t failing on armv7hl
+ While the root cause of this issue is probably not at
+ Test::Valgrind's level, it should nevertheless not run the
+ tests when the suppression files are obviously insufficient.
+ Thanks Paul Howarth for reporting and providing helpful
+ feedback.
+ + Fix : The accuracy of the default perl suppression file has been
+ improved.
+ + Fix : The tests will be more reliably skipped when no valgrind or
+ no suppressions are found.
+ + Fix : Segmentation faults during the analysis are now more gracefully
+ handled.
+ + Fix : 'no_def_supp => 1' will no longer cause the extra suppressions
+ to be ignored.
+ + Tst : t/20-bad.t will no longer run the extra tests when no valgrind
+ can be found (this was a regression in version 1.15).
+
+1.15 2015-10-30 16:15 UTC
+ + Add : The new 'regen_def_supp' option can be passed to
+ Test::Valgrind->import to forcefully regenerate the default
+ suppression file.
+ + Fix : Build failures of the dummy XS code with PERL_IMPLICIT_SYS
+ perls.
+ + Fix : Handshake failures in tests with recent perls built with
+ PERL_POISON.
+ + Tst : Improved diagnostics on failure.
+ + Upd : Freshen Makefile.PL.
