Description Jiri Palecek 2009-12-16 11:31:47 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

When I try to use kmtrace, it always crashes, because of a freed memory access (caused by the logfile variable). It still doesn't work when this is fixed.

A fixed version

This is a version that fixed all problems for me. The changes are quite big, so I don't think it would be worthwhile to make a patch. Among other things, it removes the use of Qt3 data structures, and changes the addresses to be in uintptr_t rather than int (so it should work on architectures where the size of int is not equal to the size of void*). The functionality should be otherwise unchanged.

Jiri, thanks for the code. Unfortunately there is no current maintainer of the application - as you might have noticed. Can I possibly trick you in considering to take that position and maintain the application?

The kmtrace tool is no longer maintained. We suggest you use the 'heaptrack' tool instead.
