Just wondering if someone knows how to find out memory leaks in native code from android. Google search gives lot of solution, but none of them is full. Please let me know if anybody knows how to do this.
The Memory Profiler is a component in the Android Profiler that helps you identify memory leaks and memory churn that can lead to stutter, freezes, and even app crashes. It shows a realtime graph of your app's memory use and lets you capture a heap dump, force garbage collections, and track memory allocations.
Android's libmemunreachable is a zero-overhead native memory leak detector. It uses an imprecise mark-and-sweep garbage collector pass over all native memory, reporting any unreachable blocks as leaks. See the libmemunreachable documentation for usage instructions.
If you suspect you are running into a temporal leak, a good way to check is to use Android Studio's memory profiler. Once you start a session within the profiler, take the steps to reproduce the leak, but wait for a longer period of time before dumping the heap and inspecting. The leak may be gone after the extra time.
Really useful information I got to find the leaks in native code.
/system/lib/libc.so
with /system/lib/libc_debug.so
In native-heap, you can see the allocations by native code.
