我试图在FreeBSD上使用Valgrind并遇到一些问题。这是输出

...repeated a bunch of times

最后一次警告,一遍又一遍地重复,但我认为这不一定是个问题,对吧?更令人担忧的是我认为的另一个问题。

看起来我的程序仍然在后台运行,但我显然没有得到valgrind的好报告。它提到的一个令人不快的行是pcaputil:77

以下内容:

pd=pcap_open_live(__intf, snaplen, 1, 512, ebuf)

其中_intfchar *snaplenintebufchar ebuf[SIZE] = {0};数组

2 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:1)

实际上,这只是Valgrind-for-FreeBSD并不是真正了解一些ioctls。 OS X上存在同样的问题(并且可能存在于所有其他* BSD上);请参阅Valgrind bug 312989(他们使用KDE的错误数据库;他们实际上没有超过300,000个错误: - ))。

FreeBSD的修复程序类似,但由于某些原因,他们决定采用“将所有内容从包含文件复制到Valgrind源代码”的Linux惯例,而不是“只包括系统”的达尔文惯例头文件“;这意味着头文件需要更多的工作。我会问FreeBSD Valgrind维护者Darwin方法是否会更好。

答案 1 :(得分:0)

嗯,Valgrind有一个错误。在freeBSD中有一个系统调用它无法处理。可能就是pcap所说的。这可能是传播并导致Valgrind说pcap正在跳过未初始化的数据。甚至有可能你的程序工作得很好,只是Valgrind有问题。最好的方法是添加你自己的ioctl包装器,修补valgrind,看看它是否仍然吓坏了。或者您可以使用pcap的替代方法,它不会使用它正在使用的任何系统调用。

很抱歉,如果这不是一个简单的解决方案。
