There are many questions similar to mine in google, I tried all of them, but none of them work, so I have to post this question.
I am trying to use Valgrind to detect a memory leak on some binaries that compiled for my device (using Processor: ARM926EJ-S rev 5 (v5l)).
Therefore, I am trying to cross-compile Valgrind using a special toolchain for my device.
Here is my process: I am using Valgrind 3.13.0 and Ubuntu 16
1 / cd Valgrind-3.13.0
2 / sed "s/armv7/arm/g" configure (so that he does not complain about an unsupported architect).
3 / ./configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi (using my specific cross-compiler instead of standard Linux)
4 / make
The following message will appear:
error: bad value (cortex-a8) for -mcpu= switch
=> Since my device uses the ARM926EJ-S processor, I replace cortex-a8 with arm926ej-s all the files in the Valgrin-3.13.0 folder.
Repeat the steps above and another error will appear:

What am I doing wrong?
