2016 年前的 Valgrind:使用 <iostream> 的简单程序仍然可以访问内存

PRE-2016 Valgrind: Memory still reachable with trivial program using <iostream>

编辑: 我投票决定关闭它,因为它现在不正确。

2016 年 3 月,Valgrind 获得了一个选项“--run-cxx-freeres=”(默认为是)。这将调用一个 libstdc++ 函数来释放 one-off 用于 iostream 之类的分配。如果您使用 post-2016 Valgrind 和 libstdc++,您将获得

==9356== HEAP SUMMARY:
==9356==     in use at exit: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
==9356==   total heap usage: 1 allocs, 1 frees, 72,704 bytes allocated
==9356==
==9356== All heap blocks were freed -- no leaks are possible

原版POST:

采用以下简单程序:

#include <iostream>
int main() {
  return 0;
}

如果我 运行 使用 valgrind,我被告知有 72,704 bytes in 1 blocksstill reachable。关于是否担心仍然可以到达的警告,已经有关于 SO 的广泛讨论——我不关心那个。我只是想了解 包括 一个标准库 header 是多么简单,当 object 中的 none 来自该库是在程序本身中分配的。

这是完整的 valgrind 输出:

为了完整起见,我使用:
Ubuntu: 12.04
Valgrind:3.10.1 3.7.0
g++: 4.8.1

注意:作为旁注,当我包含其他 headers 例如 <fstream><cmath>.

时,不会发生这种情况

考虑以下简单的包含文件:

#ifndef TRIVIAL_INCLUDE_FILE
#define TRIVIAL_INCLUDE_FILE
static int *x = new x (0);
#endif

这是 Valgrind 的错。首先,-fsanitize=leak 没有显示任何内容。二、Valgrind 本身 states 即:

First of all: relax, it's probably not a bug, but a feature. Many implementations of the C++ standard libraries use their own memory pool allocators. Memory for quite a number of destructed objects is not immediately freed and given back to the OS, but kept in the pool(s) for later re-use. The fact that the pools are not freed at the exit of the program cause Valgrind to report this memory as still reachable. The behaviour not to free pools at the exit could be called a bug of the library though.

Using GCC, you can force the STL to use malloc and to free memory as soon as possible by globally disabling memory caching. Beware! Doing so will probably slow down your program, sometimes drastically.

With GCC 2.91, 2.95, 3.0 and 3.1, compile all source using the STL with -D__USE_MALLOC. Beware! This was removed from GCC starting with version 3.3.

With GCC 3.2.2 and later, you should export the environment variable GLIBCPP_FORCE_NEW before running your program.

With GCC 3.4 and later, that variable has changed name to GLIBCXX_FORCE_NEW.

[...]

我猜那些所谓的内存池在 程序终止后被释放,在所谓的调用 main 的启动代码中,以及其他设置中。在用户代码之外定义的内部函数应该被视为不存在,这就是为什么 Valgrind 不能(也不应该)看到进一步的释放。

对于 gcc 6 及更高版本,已修复相关错误:

使用 gcc 5,您也可以在不包含 iostream.

的情况下得到相同的警告

因此,如果您看到类似 dl-init.c 的警告并且您使用的是 gcc 5,请考虑升级到较新的版本 (gcc >=6),或尝试使用 clang 进行编译。
