Valgrind是一款用于内存调试、内存泄漏检测以及性能分析的神器，能够帮助我们快速定位到程序的内存问题，比如内存泄漏导致的段错误 (核心已转储)

包含以下工具：

Memcheck：检查程序中的内存问题，如泄漏、越界、非法指针等
Callgrind：主要用来检查程序中函数调用过程中出现的问题。
Cachegrind：分析CPU的cache命中率、丢失率，用于进行代码优化。
Helgrind：主要用来检查多线程程序中出现的竞争问题。
Massif：主要用来检查程序中堆栈使用中出现的问题。
Extension：可利用core提供的功能，自己编写特定的内存调试工具

使用语法如下：

 valgrind [options]  ./prog_file

usage: valgrind [options] prog-and-args

  tool-selection option, with default in [ ]:
    --tool=<name>             use the Valgrind tool named <name> [memcheck]

    -h --help                 show this message
    --help-debug              show this message, plus debugging options
    --version                 show version
    -q --quiet                run silently; only print error msgs
    -v --verbose              be more verbose -- show misc extra info
    --trace-children=no|yes   Valgrind-ise child processes (follow execve)? [no]
    --trace-children-skip=patt1,patt2,...    specifies a list of executables

                              but check the argv[] entries for children, rather
                              than the exe name, to make a follow/no-follow decision
