linux c 内存泄露检测工具valgrind
Linux c/c++上常用内存泄露检测工具有valgrind, Rational purify。Valgrind免费。Valgrind 可以在 32 位或 64 位 PowerPC/Linux 内核上工作。
Valgrind工具包包含多个工具，如Memcheck,Cachegrind,Helgrind, Callgrind，Massif。下面分别介绍个工具的作用：
Memcheck 工具主要检查下面的程序错误：
• 使用未初始化的内存 (Use of uninitialised memory)
• 使用已经释放了的内存 (Reading/writing memory after it has been free’d)
• 使用超过 malloc分配的内存空间(Reading/writing off the end of malloc’d blocks)
• 对堆栈的非法访问 (Reading/writing inappropriate areas on the stack)
• 申请的空间是否有释放 (Memory leaks – where pointers to malloc’d blocks are lost forever)
• malloc/free/new/delete申请和释放内存的匹配(Mismatched use of malloc/new/new [] vs free/delete/delete [])
• src和dst的重叠(Overlapping src and dst pointers in memcpy() and related functions)
Valgrind不检查静态分配数组的使用情况。
Valgrind占用了更多的内存--可达两倍于你程序的正常使用量。如果你用Valgrind来检测使用大量内存的程序就会遇到问题，它可能会用很长的时间来运行测试
2.1. 下载安装
http://www.valgrind.org
安装
./configure;make;make install
2.2. 编译程序
被检测程序加入 –g -fno-inline 编译选项保留调试信息。
2.3. 内存泄露检测
$ valgrind --tool=memcheck --log-file=/home/trunk/valgrind_log_all --leak-check=full --error-limit=no --show-leak-kinds=all /opt/lim/bin/limserver
其中--leak-check=full 指的是完全检查内存泄漏，--show-reachable=yes是显示内存泄漏的地点，--trace-children=yes是跟入子进程。当程序正常退出的时候valgrind自然会输出内存泄漏的信息。
1.内存泄露：
#include <stdio.h>void function()
{ int *p = (int*)malloc(10*sizeof(int)); p[10] = 0;
}int main()
{ function(); return 0;
}

内存泄露
问题描述：
内存泄露（Memory leak）指的是，在程序中动态申请的内存，在使用完后既没有释放，又无法被程序的其他部分访问。内存泄露是在开发大型程序中最令人头疼的问题，以至于有人说，内存泄露是无法避免的。其实不然，防止内存泄露要从良好的编程习惯做起，另外重要的一点就是要加强单元测试（Unit Test），而memcheck就是这样一款优秀的工具。
下面是一个比较典型的内存泄露案例。main函数调用了mk函数生成树结点，可是在调用完成之后，却没有相应的函数：nodefr释放内存，这样内存中的这个树结构就无法被其他部分访问，造成了内存泄露。
在一个单独的函数中，每个人的内存泄露意识都是比较强的。但很多情况下，我们都会对malloc/free 或new/delete做一些包装，以符合我们特定的需要，无法做到在一个函数中既使用又释放。这个例子也说明了内存泄露最容易发生的地方：即两个部分的接口部分，一个函数申请内存，一个函数释放内存。并且这些函数由不同的人开发、使用，这样造成内存泄露的可能性就比较大了。这需要养成良好的单元测试习惯，将内存泄露消灭在初始阶段。

结果分析：
假设上述文件名位tree.h, tree.cpp, badleak.cpp，生成的可执行程序为badleak，用memcheck对其进行测试，输出如下。
清单 12
该示例程序是生成一棵树的过程，每个树节点的大小为12（考虑内存对齐），共8个节点。从上述输出可以看出，所有的内存泄露都被发现。Memcheck将内存泄露分为两种，一种是可能的内存泄露（Possibly lost），另外一种是确定的内存泄露（Definitely lost）。Possibly lost 是指仍然存在某个指针能够访问某块内存，但该指针指向的已经不是该内存首地址。Definitely lost 是指已经不能够访问这块内存。而Definitely lost又分为两种：直接的（direct）和间接的（indirect）。直接和间接的区别就是，直接是没有任何指针指向该内存，间接是指指向该内存的指针都位于内存泄露处。在上述的例子中，根节点是directly lost，而其他节点是indirectly lost。
