Currently, valgrind
is not usable on a default build with GCC. Specifically, p2p_compactblocks.py --valgrind
gives a false-positive in RemoveBlockRequest
when comparing node_id
with from_peer
. According to the upstream bug report, this happens because both symbols are on the stack and the compiler can more aggressively optimize the compare (order). See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=472329#c7
It is possible to work around this bug by pulling at least one value from the stack. For example, by making from_peer
a const
reference. Alternatively, by replacing auto [node_id, list_it]
with const auto& [node_id, list_it]
, which is done here.
I think this workaround is acceptable, because it does not look like valgrind can trivially fix this. The alternative would be to add a (temporary?) suppression.
Fixes #27741
Also, fix iwyu includes, while touching this module.
Also, switch the CI valgrind scripts to use G++.
