c - C 中的 munmap_chunk 错误

Question

我一直在试验动态内存分配，并且遇到了 C 中的 munmap_chunk 错误。 这是我的代码。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

void get_input(char **input) {
  *input = (char *) malloc (100);
  *input = "hello world";
}

int main() {
  char *input;
  get_input(&input);
  puts(input);
  free(input);
  return 0;
}

这是执行程序时 valgrind 显示的内容。

为什么 free() 函数的行为是这样的？另外，从 valgrind 日志来看，为什么我的 char *input 变量没有被 malloc() 分配？

Answer 1

可以这样赋值:

*input = "hello world"; /* Not modifiable */

但是，你不需要用malloc保留空间，"hello world"有他自己的地址(在一些“只读”段)和任何尝试修改字符串会导致未定义的行为，因此不允许您释放它。

如果你想要一个可修改的字符串:

void get_input(char **input) {
    char str[] = "hello world";

    *input = malloc(sizeof(str)); /* Don't cast malloc */
    if (*input == NULL) {
        perror("malloc");
        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }
    strncpy(*input, str, sizeof(str));
}

或

void get_input(char **input) {
    *input = strdup("hello world");
}

请注意，strdup 不是标准的，但它可用于许多实现。
