+Running with Valgrind
+=====================
+
+BlueZ for Android is preconfigured to be easily run under Valgrind memcheck.
+Appropriate configuration and required modules are automatically included when
+building either userdebug or eng variant of Android platform.
+
+Valgrind can be enabled in runtime by setting "persist.sys.bluetooth.valgrind"
+property to either literal "true" or any numeric value >0. For example:
+adb root
+adb shell setprop persist.sys.bluetooth.valgrind true
+
+After changing property value Bluetooth need to be restarted to apply changes
+(this can be done using UI, just disable and enable it again). Property is
+persistent, i.e. there's no need to enable Valgrind again after reboot.
