Valgrind Report

Question

I used the valgrind command

valgrind --leak-check = full --show-reachable = yes -v

to check for detected and suppressed errors and get a report on

ERROR SUMMARY: 0 errors from 0 contexts (suppressed: 13 out of 8)

What does it mean (suppressed: 13 out of 8)?

Answer 1

This means that there are 13 separate problems - possibly a memory leak or (more likely) known access errors - from 8 different places that were not logged because they are known, not in your code. You can change the list of bans to find out what they are.
