Valgrind does not work with WSL?

问题

When I installed WSL for my computer I was very excited to have a more natively supported Linux system rather than using VirtualBox. However I get this error when I try to run it. Is there a reason why?

I am happy to give more information as required.

It's definitely possible

I've encountered some problems installing it directly with apt, however it can be installed manually with some very simple steps:

• Download the source file: wget http://valgrind.org/downloads/valgrind-3.12.0.tar.bz2 (by the time you read this there could be a newer version)
• Extract the archive: tar -xvjf valgrind-3.12.0.tar.bz2
• Configure the installation process: cd into the exctracted folder valgrind-3.12.0 and then launch ./configure
• Make: simply launch make while in the valgrind-3.12.0 folder
• Check the dependencies: launch make check to see whether all the dependencies necessary for the installation are satisfied (e.g: you'll have to install g++, just launch sudo apt install g++)
• Install valgrind: type sudo make install to install it

I had the same problem, the solution was to install Windows 10 creators update (version 1703), and reinstall Bash/WSL. Valgrind now works fine :)
