C中的内存泄漏与fopen

标签: c memory memory-leaks valgrind fopen

我有一个简单的程序,目前根据valgrind产生一些内存泄漏,我不确定原因:

char *filename = strrchr(argv[3], "/") + 1;
file = fopen(fileName, "w");

据我所知,我给程序一个argv [3]的“test / test2”,第一行找到最后一次出现的“/”,然后向前移动一个字符(到“t” )。然后第二行打开一个文件,该文件是char数组“test”的指针。

为什么会导致内存泄漏?

好吧,你的代码会泄漏文件句柄(后者fopen没有关闭)。但是,如果没有更完整的例子,很难说清楚。

答案 1 :(得分:5)

如果使用打开的文件流,标准I / O库很可能会为流分配缓冲区。如果您没有明确关闭流,valgrind很可能会将该内存视为仍在使用中;有可能被视为泄露的外部机会。

来自valgrind的确切消息是什么?你为什么指着fopen()

考虑这个简单的程序:

#include <stdio.h>

static void leaky(void)
{
    FILE *fp = fopen("/etc/passwd", "r");
    char buffer[2048];
    while (fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), fp) != 0)
        fputs(buffer, stdout);
    /* fclose(fp); */
}

int main(void)
{
    leaky();
    return 0;
}

它产生摘要输出:

==6169== 
==6169== ERROR SUMMARY: 0 errors from 0 contexts (suppressed: 5 from 1)
==6169== malloc/free: in use at exit: 568 bytes in 1 blocks.
==6169== malloc/free: 1 allocs, 0 frees, 568 bytes allocated.
==6169== For counts of detected errors, rerun with: -v
==6169== searching for pointers to 1 not-freed blocks.

==6169== Reachable blocks (those to which a pointer was found) are not shown.
==6169== To see them, rerun with: --show-reachable=yes

如果未注释掉fclose(fp),则输出为:

==7125==
