文件后部,总体来看,有1个错误,0个malloc,1个free。如下:==26786== ERROR SUMMARY: 1 errors from 1 contexts (suppressed: 11 from 1)

} 执行后,再用mtrace 将结果输出:- 0x08049670 Free 3 was never alloc'd 0x42029acc
- 0x080496f0 Free 4 was never alloc'd 0x420dc9e9
- 0x08049708 Free 5 was never alloc'd 0x420dc9f1
- 0x08049628 Free 6 was never alloc'd 0x42113a22
- 0x08049640 Free 7 was never alloc'd 0x42113a52
- 0x08049658 Free 8 was never alloc'd 0x42113a96
Memory not freed:
-----------------
Address Size Caller
0x08049a90 0x1 at 0x80483fe 最后一行标明有一个大小为1 byte的内存尚未释放,大概是指「hello」吧。若我们把该段内存释放: #include
#include
#include
#include
int main() {
char *hello;
free(hello);
return 0;
} 结果如下:- 0x080496b0 Free 4 was never alloc'd 0x42029acc
- 0x08049730 Free 5 was never alloc'd 0x420dc9e9
- 0x08049748 Free 6 was never alloc'd 0x420dc9f1

- 0x08049698 Free 9 was never alloc'd 0x42113a96
No memory leaks. mtrace的原理是记录每一对malloc-free的执行,若每一个malloc都有相应的free,则代表没有内存泄露,对于任何非malloc/free情況下所发生的内存泄露问题,mtrace并不能找出来。
