Your assembler is too old, which is not really surprising when you're using a 15 year old operating system, for which vendor support ended four years ago...

I can install valgrind(3.14) successfully...
But after running 3.14  for a while, an error message of "Segmentation fault" appears, even if I use the normal program.
The program is compiled with gcc10, does the 3.14 not support gcc10 programs???

Comment 3 Tom Hughes 2021-01-07 09:51:58 UTC

The issue you're having with 3.15 is with the assembler not with the compiler so the fact you've upgraded gcc is not relevant unless you've also upgraded binutils to get a newer assembler.

I can't comment on 3.14 without more information about exactly what valgrind says when it fails.
