<title>Description</title>

<para><command>Valgrind</command> is a flexible program for debugging
and profiling Linux executables.  It consists of a core, which provides
a synthetic CPU in software, and a series of debugging and profiling tools.
The architecture is modular, so that new tools can be created easily and
without disturbing the existing structure.</para>

<para>Some of the options described below work with all Valgrind tools, and
some only work with a few or one.  The section MEMCHECK OPTIONS and those
below it describe tool-specific options.</para>

<para>This manual page covers only basic usage and options.  For more
comprehensive information, please see the HTML documentation on your
system: <filename>&vg-docs-path;</filename>, or online:
<filename>&vg-docs-url;</filename>.</para>
