Valgrind 使用
用法: valgrind [options] prog-and-args [options]: 常用选项,适用于所有Valgrind工具
-
-tool=<name> 最常用的选项。运行 valgrind中名为toolname的工具。默认memcheck。
-
h –help 显示帮助信息。
-
-version 显示 valgrind内核的版本,每个工具都有各自的版本。
-
q –quiet 安静地运行,只打印错误信息。
-
v –verbose 更详细的信息, 增加错误数统计。
-
-trace-children=no|yes 跟踪子线程? [no]
-
-track-fds=no|yes 跟踪打开的文件描述?[no]
-
-time-stamp=no|yes 增加时间戳到LOG信息? [no]
-
-log-fd=<number> 输出LOG到描述符文件 [2=stderr]
-
-log-file=<file> 将输出的信息写入到filename.PID的文件里,PID是运行程序的进行ID
-
-log-file-exactly=<file> 输出LOG信息到 file
-
-log-file-qualifier=<VAR> 取得环境变量的值来做为输出信息的文件名。 [none]
-
-log-socket=ipaddr:port 输出LOG到socket ,ipaddr:port
LOG信息输出
-
-xml=yes 将信息以xml格式输出,只有memcheck可用
-
-num-callers=<number> show <number> callers in stack traces [12]
-
-error-limit=no|yes 如果太多错误,则停止显示新错误? [yes]
-
-error-exitcode=<number> 如果发现错误则返回错误代码 [0=disable]
-
-db-attach=no|yes 当出现错误, valgrind会自动启动调试器gdb。[no]
-
-db-command=<command> 启动调试器的命令行选项[gdb -nw %f %p]
适用于Memcheck工具的相关选项:
-
-leak-check=no|summary|full 要求对leak给出详细信息? [summary]
-
-leak-resolution=low|med|high how much bt merging in leak check [low]
-
-show-reachable=no|yes show reachable blocks in leak check? [no]
Valgrind 使用举例
下面是一段有问题的C程序代码test.c
#include <stdlib.h>
void f(void)
{
int* x = malloc(10 * sizeof(int));
x[10] = 0; //问题1: 数组下标越界
} //问题2: 内存没有释放
int main(void)
{
f();
return 0;
}
1、 编译程序test.c
gcc -Wall test.c -g -o test
2、 使用Valgrind检查程序BUG
valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full ./test
3、 分析输出的调试信息
