I'm new to valgrind. While trying to check my small program, I'm getting this error:

This kind of errors are AFAIK due to an incorrect memory access. The library is trying to access a memory area which is not mapped in its memory space.
Did valgrind stop without checking the whole program? Or does it mean that my app is ok? How can I fix the existing problem?
