Valgrind (AndrewY, Sandia)
Doesn't work very well due to lacking IP enablement. Good topic for near term work.
Andy Wafaa: Aware of issues with Valgrind. They will bring in an assignee to get parity on TX2 (Armv8.1 upstream) and future revisions of the architecture
AndrewY: Sandia uses gdb, so Valgrind wasn't critical, but would like to see this get better.
