Unfortunately the mtrace that is part of +current (9/9/2000) glibc versions only logs the return-address of the +malloc/free call. The library included with KMtrace +logs a complete backtrace upon malloc/free. +.PP +This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR demangle (1), +.BR kmmatch (1), +.BR kmtrace (1). +.PP +Much more extensive documentation for KMtrace can be found in +\fI/usr/share/doc/kmtrace/README\fP. +.SH AUTHOR +KMtrace was written by Waldo Bastian <bastian@kde.org>, +Mike Haertel <mike@ai.mit.edu> and Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>. +.br +This manual page was prepared by Ben Burton <bab@debian.org> +for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). |
