VALGRIND-DI-SERVER(1)

✨ VALGRIND-DI-SERVER πŸ’…

ok so bestie, welcome to the manual for valgrind-di-server β€” literally the experimental debuginfo server for valgrind 🧚 she's giving lab-experiment energy, she's giving "we're still cooking", and honestly? iconic.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

valgrind-di-server [options]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the vibe: valgrind-di-server accepts connections β€” and yeah, multiple of them, she's a social queen πŸ‘‘ β€” from valgrind processes that are using the --debuginfo-server option on the port you specified. Then she serves up (compressed!) debuginfo files, in chunks, straight out of the current working directory. serving looks, serving data, serving cunt πŸ’…βœ¨

no cap, that's the whole gig.

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -e, --exit-at-zero β€” when the number of connected processes drops back down to zero, she exits. cute, right? without this flag though, she runs forever, like literally until you hit her with a Control-C 😭
  • --max-connect=INTEGER β€” default limit is 50 connected processes. sometimes 50 is just not enough (growth mindset, we love to see it 🌈). use this to set a different limit. e.g. --max-connect=100.
  • portnumber β€” changes the port she listens on from the default, which is 1500. the port you give must be in the range 1024 to 65535 ⭐ and heads up: that same restriction applies to port numbers you specify with the --debuginfo-server option to Valgrind itself. same rules, both sides, periodt.
