为什么Valgrind抱怨fgets?

标签: c valgrind fopen

我有一个简单的C代码。

main.c

int main() {
    FILE *stream = fopen("../input.txt", "r");
    cube test_cube;
    cube_initialization(&test_cube, stream);

/* and some code with free memory which is not needed to understand the situation */

}

cube.c

/* just the function valgrind complains about */

void cube_initialization(cube *cube, FILE *input_file) {
    int side_length;
    char buffer[BUF_SIZE];
    char waste_buffer[BUF_SIZE];


    fgets(buffer, BUF_SIZE, input_file);
    fgets(waste_buffer, BUF_SIZE, input_file); /* empty line */
    side_length = (int) strtol(buffer, NULL, 10);
    cube->side_length = side_length;
    cube->cube_array = malloc(side_length * sizeof(int **));
    int z;
    for (z = 0; z < side_length; z++) {
        cube->cube_array[z] = malloc(side_length * sizeof(int *));
        int y;
        for (y = 0; y < side_length; y++) {
            cube->cube_array[z][y] = malloc(side_length * sizeof(int));
        }
    }
}

和valgrind输出

我不明白为什么Valgrind抱怨fgets()。我从文件中读取数据,并使用fgets和指向大缓冲区(256)的指针,但它仅需要我读取大约1-6个符号的短行(我需要fgets,因为它在找到\ n时会停止行结束)。也许问题出在事实fgets()尝试读取256个符号的行,并且在1-5和'\ n'之后停止?

2 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:3)

Valgrind抱怨非法访问地址0x0

地址0x0未堆栈,未分配或(最近)未释放

在您的fgets()通话中

fgets(buffer, BUF_SIZE, input_file);

buffer参数很好,因为它是在堆栈中分配的。唯一负责的是来自input_file的{​​{1}}参数。该参数是从main()调用获得的流。在传递给fopen()之前,您没有检查它!

检查它,然后了解为什么它返回NULL(可能您尝试打开一个不存在的路径)。

cube_initialization()

答案 1 :(得分:3)

Valgrind抱怨fgets()中的读取无效。问题不太可能是目标数组的大小,这可能会触发无效写入,但实际上是BUF_SIZE个字节的数组,您将其记录为合理的256值。问题很可能与流指针,根据Valgrind报告,该指针可以为空:

Address 0x0 is not stack'd, malloc'd or (recently) free'd`

您应该在代码中修复潜在的未定义行为:

  • 验证fopen()是否返回有效的FILE*,以避免当您尝试从input_file读取内容时发生未定义的行为。
  • 验证fgets()成功(不返回NULL),以避免从目标数组读取数据时出现未定义的行为。
