+
+A quite significant number of bug fixes have been made to Valgrind on FreeBSD over the past few months.
+In particular, the i386 version has largely 'caught up' with its bigger brother amd64.
+
+The devel/valgrind-devel port has been bumped up to 3.20.0.g20220612,1 which includes all of the following changes.
+If you use Valgrind regularly please switch to valgrind-devel.
+
+Here is a list of changes since the release of Valgrind 3.19.0 (which is the version available with the devel/valgrind port).
+
+* incorrect signal resumption if a signal arrives when Valgrind is saving the carry flag for a syscall
+* fixed reading DWARF debuginfo from PT_LOADs generated by lld post version 9, which splits the RW segment into two parts, this affects mainly shared libraries (.so files)
+* on i386 implement correctly the management of thread GDTs which was limiting applications to only ever creating 8192 threads
+* make the first page of the 'brk' invalid for addressing
+* analysis and cleanup of the regression test suite and in particular tweak the i386 leak tests to not detect possible leaks due to left over pointers in ECX.
+* make coredumps readable by lldb
+* improve the setting of errno by C allocating functions
+* fix building of Valgrind with llvm-devel (15.0.0)
+
+For FreeBSD 13.1 / 14.0 there are
+
+* syscall wrappers for funlinkat, copy_file_range, swapoff, shm_open2
+* add K_INFO handling to fcntl
+* add handling for new auxv entries
+* added some default suppressions for DRD and Helgrind
+
+There is now an initial version of vgdb invoker support - this allows vgdb to use ptrace to force valgrind to poll for gdb commands.
+This is not yet available in the ports versions.
+
+That does not leave much in the way of outstanding issues.
+I expect that 14.0 and newer versions of llvm will keep on requiring support.
+Apart from that there is
+
+* some small problems with error messages getting the correct source
+information
+* better core dumps (low priority)
+* TLS (thread local storage) handling for Helgrind (difficult if not impossible)
