.SH NAME
kminspector \- run a program with the TDE memory leak tracer
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B kminspector
\fIprogram\fP [ \fIprogram-args\fP ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBKMinspector\fP runs the given program, examines its memory
allocation behaviour using \fIlibktrace\fP and pipes the resulting
allocation tree through \fIless\fP.
.PP
The given program does not need to be specially compiled.
.PP
This utility is provided with KMtrace,
a TDE tool to assist with malloc debugging using
glibc's "mtrace" functionality. Unfortunately the mtrace that is part of
current (9/9/2000) glibc versions only logs the return-address of the
malloc/free call. The library included with KMtrace
logs a complete backtrace upon malloc/free.
.PP
This utility is part of the TDE Software Development Kit.
.SH SEE ALSO
.BR demangle (1),
.BR kmmatch (1),
.BR kmtrace (1).
.PP
Much more extensive documentation for KMtrace can be found in
\fI/usr/share/doc/kmtrace/README\fP.
