Ubuntu上交叉编译valgrind for Android 4.0.4的过程与注意事项

编译环境：Ubuntu x86_64（Linux root 2.6.32-45-generic #101-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 3 15:39:38 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux）

运行环境：Android 4.0.4 （Linux kernel 3.0.21 OMAP4460）

一、下载NDK9和valgrind 3.8.1。

二、按照valgrind 3.8.1中的README.android进行编译，步骤如下：

1. 指定NDK根目录

export NDKROOT=/path/to/android-ndk-r9

2. 指定通用的安卓设备

export HWKIND=generic

3. 指定交叉工具链路径

export AR=$NDKROOT/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-ar

export LD=$NDKROOT/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-ld

export CC=$NDKROOT/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc

4. 到valgrind目录下配置valgrind

cd /path/to/valgrind

CPPFLAGS="--sysroot=$NDKROOT/platforms/android-3/arch-arm -DANDROID_HARDWARE_$HWKIND"

CFLAGS="--sysroot=$NDKROOT/platforms/android-3/arch-arm"

 ./configure --prefix=/data/local/valgrind --host=armv7-unknown-linux --target=armv7-unknown-linux  --with-tmpdir=/sdcard

注：配置这步经常报错，前面的路径等设置需要细心啊。

5. 编译并安装到指定路径

make -j2

make -j2 install DESTDIR=`pwd`/Inst

注：-j2表示利用双核提升编译速度，对速度不在乎的可以去掉。

三、安卓上运行

1. 拷贝Inst到安卓系统/data/local/valgrind中。

注：假如路径不是编译配置时的路径，这时需要重新设置一下，否则会报错。“valgrind: failed to start tool 'memcheck' for platform 'arm-linux': No such file or directory”

export VALGRIND_LIB=/data/local/valgrind/lib/valgrind/

2. 安卓4.0.4下（OMAP4460）执行Memcheck效果

127|shell@android:/data/local # /data/local/valgrind/bin/valgrind ls

shell@android:/data/local # 

3. 安卓4.0.4下（OMAP4460）执行callgrind步骤

/data/local/valgrind/bin/valgrind --tool=callgrind ./test

执行完成后在目录下生成"callgrind.out.XXX"（XXX是进程ID号）是分析文件，可以直接利用：/data/local/valgrind/bin/callgrind_annotate callgrind.out.XXX 打印结果；

也可以在Ubuntu上使用：gprof2dot.py -f callgrind callgrind.out.XXX |dot -Tpng -o report.png 来生成图形化结果（需下载gprof2dot.py脚本，详见参考资料3）。

注：

1、使用callgrind时，./test程序运行时间短(<2s)，运算量小的可以正常执行callgrind；而当test程序运行时间较长(>6S)，运算量较大时，会导致安卓系统不稳定，无法正确执行下去，估计valgrind对安卓的兼容性较差吧。
