At line 12-20, cpython/Misc/README.valgrind, the descriptions are out of date. File "Objects/obmalloc.c" does not contain Py_USING_MEMORY_DEBUGGER any more since Python 3.6.  The descriptions should be modified for Python 3.6-3.10


Attached line 12-20, cpython/Misc/README.valgrind: 
=================================================

If you don't want to read about the details of using Valgrind, there

are still two things you must do to suppress the warnings. First,

you must use a suppressions file. One is supplied in

Misc/valgrind-python.supp. Second, you must do one of the following:



* Uncomment Py_USING_MEMORY_DEBUGGER in Objects/obmalloc.c,

then rebuild Python

* Uncomment the lines in Misc/valgrind-python.supp that

suppress the warnings for PyObject_Free and PyObject_Realloc
