Linux下内存泄漏检测工具Valgrind


1概述

1.1 介绍

Valgrind是一套下,开放源代码(GPL V2)的仿真调试工具的集合。Valgrind由内核(core)以及基于内核的其他调试工具组成。内核类似于一个框架(framework),它模拟了一个CPU环境,并提供服务给其他工具;而其他工具则类似于插件 (plug-in),利用内核提供的服务完成各种特定的内存调试任务。Valgrind的体系结构如下图所示:

1.2 工具

Valgrind的最新版是3.11.0,它一般包含下列工具: 

1.Memcheck 

    最常用的工具,用来检测程序中出现的内存问题,所有对内存的读写都会被检测到,一切对malloc()/free()/new/delete的调用都会被捕获。所以,它能检测以下问题: 

    对未初始化内存的使用; 

    读/写释放后的内存块; 

    读/写超出malloc分配的内存块; 

    读/写不适当的栈中内存块; 

    内存泄漏,指向一块内存的指针永远丢失; 

    不正确的malloc/free或new/delete匹配; 

    memcpy()相关函数中的dst和src指针重叠。 

2.Callgrind 

    和gprof类似的分析工具,但它对程序的运行观察更是入微,能给我们提供更多的信息。和gprof不同,它不需要在源代码时附加特殊选项,但加上调试选项是推荐的。Callgrind收集程序运行时的一些数据,建立函数调用关系图,还可以有选择地进行cache模拟。在运行结束时,它会把分析数据写入一个文件。callgrind_annotate可以把这个文件的内容转化成可读的形式。 

3.Cachegrind 

    Cache分析器,它模拟CPU中的一级缓存I1,Dl和二级缓存,能够精确地指出程序中cache的丢失和命中。如果需要,它还能够为我们提供cache丢失次数,内存引用次数,以及每行代码,每个函数,每个模块,整个程序产生的指令数。这对优化程序有很大的帮助。 

4.Helgrind 

    它主要用来检查多线程程序中出现的竞争问题。Helgrind寻找内存中被多个线程访问,而又没有一贯加锁的区域,这些区域往往是线程之间失去同步的地方,而且会导致难以发掘的错误。Helgrind实现了名为“Eraser”的竞争检测算法,并做了进一步改进,减少了报告错误的次数。不过,Helgrind仍然处于实验阶段。 

5.Massif 

    堆栈分析器,它能测量程序在堆栈中使用了多少内存,告诉我们堆块,堆管理块和栈的大小。Massif能帮助我们减少内存的使用,在带有内存的现代系统中,它还能够加速我们程序的运行,减少程序停留在交换区中的几率。 

此外,lackey和nulgrind也会提供。Lackey是小型工具,很少用到;Nulgrind只是为开发者展示如何创建一个工具。

1.3 原理

Memcheck 能够检测出内存问题,关键在于其建立了两个全局表。Valid-Value 表

对于进程的整个地址空间中的每一个字节(byte),都有与之对应的 8 个 bits;对于CPU的每个寄存器,也有一个与之对应的bit向量。这些bits负责记录该字节或者寄存器值是否具有有效的、已初始化的值。

Valid-Address 表

对于进程整个地址空间中的每一个字节(byte),还有与之对应的1个bit,负责记录该地址是否能够被读写。

检测原理:

当要读写内存中某个字节时,首先检查这个字节对应的 A bit。如果该A bit显示该位置是无效位置,memcheck则报告读写错误。

内核(core)类似于一个的 CPU 环境,这样当内存中的某个字节被加载到真实的 CPU 中时,该字节对应的 V bit 也被加载到的 CPU 环境中。一旦寄存器中的值,被用来产生内存地址,或者该值能够影响程序输出,则 memcheck 会检查对应的V bits,如果该值尚未初始化,则会报告使用未初始化内存错误。

2 安装使用

2.1安装

从官网下载最新版本(当前3.11)

#tar xvf valgrind-3.11.1.tar.bz2
#cd valgrind-3.11.1
#./configure –prefix=/usr/local/valgrind–指定安装目录
#make
#make install

2.2 命令介绍

用法:valgrind[options] prog-and-args [options]: 常用选项,适用于所有Valgrind工具

  1. h –help 显示帮助信息。
  2. -version 显示valgrind内核的版本,每个工具都有各自的版本。
  3. q –quiet 安静地运行,只打印错误信息。
  4. v –verbose 更详细的信息, 增加错误数统计。
  5. -trace-children=no|yes 跟踪子线程? [no]
  6. -track-fds=no|yes 跟踪打开的文件描述?[no]
  7. -time-stamp=no|yes 增加时间戳到LOG信息? [no]
  8. -log-socket=ipaddr:port 输出LOG到socket ,ipaddr:port

LOG信息输出:

  1. -xml=yes 将信息以xml格式输出,只有memcheck可用
  2. -error-limit=no|yes 如果太多错误,则停止显示新错误? [yes]
  3. -db-attach=no|yes 当出现错误,valgrind会自动启动调试器gdb。[no]

适用于Memcheck工具的相关选项:

  1. -leak-check=no|summary|full 要求对leak给出详细信息? [summary]
  2. -leak-resolution=low|med|high how much bt merging in leak check [low]
  3. -show-reachable=no|yes show reachable blocks in leak check? [no]

3 应用实践

    下面通过介绍几个范例来说明如何使用Memcheck (其他工具暂不涉及,感兴趣可以交流),示例仅供参考,更多用途可在实际应用中不断探索。

3.1数组越界/内存未释放

void k(void)

{

int *x = malloc(8 * sizeof(int));

x[9] = 0;              //数组下标越界

}                        //内存未释放

 

int main(void)

{

    k();

return 0;

}

1)程序test.c

gcc -Wall test.c -g -o test#Wall提示所有告警,-g gdb,-o输出

2)使用Valgrind检查程序BUG

valgrind –tool=memcheck –leak-check=full ./test

#–leak-check=full 所有泄露检查

3) 运行结果如下:

3.2内存释放后读写

 

int main(void)

{

char *p = malloc(1);    //分配

*p = ‘a';

 

char c = *p;

 

printf(“\n [%c]\n”,c);

 

free(p);        //释放

    c = *p;        //取值

return 0;

}

1)程序t2.c

gcc -Wall t2.c -g -o t2 

2)使用Valgrind检查程序BUG

valgrind –tool=memcheck –leak-check=full ./t2

3) 运行结果如下:

==3058==

==3058== For counts of detected and suppressed errors, rerun with:

从上输出内容可以看到,Valgrind检测到无效的读取操作然后输出“Invalid read of size 1”。

3.3无效读写

 

int main(void)

{

   char *p = malloc(1);    //分配1字节

   *p = ‘a';

   char c = *(p+1);        //地址加1

   printf(“\n [%c]\n”,c); 

   free(p);

   return 0;

}

1)程序t3.c

gcc -Wall t3.c -g -o t3 

2)使用Valgrind检查程序BUG

valgrind –tool=memcheck –leak-check=full ./t3

3) 运行结果如下:

3.4内存泄露

 

int main(void)

{

int *p = malloc(1);

*p = ‘x';

char c = *p;

printf(“%c\n”,c);        //申请后未释放

    return 0;

}

1)程序t4.c

gcc -Wall t4.c -g -o t4 

2)使用Valgrind检查程序BUG

valgrind –tool=memcheck –leak-check=full ./t4

3) 运行结果如下:

==3221== Memcheck, a memory error detector

==3221== Copyright (C) 2002-2012, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al.

从检查结果看,可以发现内存泄露。

3.5内存多次释放

int main(void) 

    char *p;

    p=(char *)malloc(100);   

    if(p)

        printf(“Memory Allocated at: %s/n”,p); 

    else

        printf(“Not Enough Memory!/n”); 

    free(p);                          //重复释放

    free(p);

    free(p);

    return 0;

1)编译程序t5.c

gcc -Wall t5.c -g -o t5 

2)使用Valgrind检查程序BUG

valgrind –tool=memcheck –leak-check=full ./t5

3) 运行结果如下:

==3294== Memcheck, a memory error detector

==3294== Copyright (C) 2002-2012, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward

==3294== Using Valgrind-3.8.1 and LibVEX; rerun with -h for

==3294==    by 0x4005A9: main (t5.c:12)

==3294==

Memory Allocated at: /n==3294==

==3294== HEAP SUMMARY:

==3294==    in use at exit: 0 bytes in 0 blocks

==3294==  total heap usage: 1 allocs, 3 frees, 100 bytes allocated

从上面的输出可以看到(标注), 该功能检测到我们对同一个指针调用了3次释放内存操作。

3.6内存动态管理

常见的内存分配方式分三种:静态存储,栈上分配,堆上分配。全局变量属于静态存储,它们是在编译时就被分配了存储空间,函数内的局部变量属于栈上分配,而最灵活的内存使用方式当属堆上分配,也叫做内存动态分配了。常用的内存动态分配函数包括:malloc, alloc, realloc, new等,动态释放函数包括free, delete。

一旦成功申请了动态内存,我们就需要自己对其进行内存管理,而这又是最容易犯错误的。下面的一段程序,就包括了内存动态管理中常见的错误。

int main(int argc,char *argv[])

{

int i;

char* p = (char*)malloc(10);

char* pt=p;

    {

p[i] = ‘z';

    }

free(p);

pt[1] = ‘x';

free(pt);

return 0;

}

1)编译程序t6.c

gcc -Wall t6.c -g -o t6 

2)使用Valgrind检查程序BUG

valgrind –tool=memcheck –leak-check=full ./t6

3) 运行结果如下:

==3380== Memcheck, a memory error detector

==3380== Copyright (C) 2002-2012, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al.

==3380== Using Valgrind-3.8.1 and LibVEX; rerun with -h for copyright info

==3380== Command: ./t6

==3380==

==3380==at 0x4A06430: free (vg_replace_malloc.c:446)

==3380==by 0x400553: main (t6.c:13)

==3380==

==3380==  Invalid free() / delete / delete[] / realloc()

==3380==at 0x4A06430: free (vg_replace_malloc.c:446)

==3380==by 0x40056A: main (t6.c:15)

==3380==Address 0x4c27040 is 0 bytes inside a block of size 10 free'd

==3380==at 0x4A06430: free (vg_replace_malloc.c:446)

==3380==by 0x400553: main (t6.c:13)

==3380==

==3380==

==3380== HEAP SUMMARY:

==3380==in use at exit: 0 bytes in 0 blocks

==3380==total heap usage: 1 allocs, 2 frees, 10 bytes allocated

申请内存在使用完成后就要释放。如果没有释放,或少释放了就是内存泄露;多释放也会产生问题。上述程序中,指针p和pt指向的是同一块内存,却被先后释放两次。系统会在堆上维护一个动态内存链表,如果被释放,就意味着该块内存可以继续被分配给其他部分,如果内存被释放后再访问,就可能覆盖其他部分的信息,这是一种严重的错误,上述程序第14行中就在释放后仍然写这块内存。

输出结果显示,第13行分配和释放函数不一致;第14行发生非法写操作,也就是往释放后的内存地址写值;第15行释放内存函数无效。
