c - getline函数返回值为-1时内存泄漏

Question

#include <stdio.h>                              
int main(int argc, char** argv)                 
{                                               
    FILE *fp = NULL;                            
    char* line = NULL;                          
    ssize_t read = 0;                           
    ssize_t len = 0;                            
    fp = popen("lspci | grep aaaaaa", "r");     

    if((read = getline(&line, &len, fp)) == -1){
        pclose(fp);                             
        return -1;                              
    }                                           

    pclose(fp);                                 
}

这是测试程序。

我在这里写了功能测试代码。我想知道当函数 getline 返回 -1 时是否需要释放缓冲区。我在我的环境中测试了它。我发现当getline函数返回-1时，存在内存泄漏。以下是我的调试步骤:

Breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0xbffff754) at getline.c:8
8           FILE *fp = NULL;
(gdb) n
9           char* line = NULL;
(gdb)
10          ssize_t read = 0;
(gdb)
11          ssize_t len = 0;
(gdb)
12          fp = popen("lspci | grep aaaaaa", "r");
(gdb)
14          if((read = getline(&line, &len, fp)) == -1){
(gdb) i locals
fp = 0x804b008
line = 0x0
read = 0
len = 0
(gdb) n
15              pclose(fp);
(gdb) i locals
fp = 0x804b008
line = 0x804b0b8 ""
read = -1
len = 120

这是getline函数的第一期。另一个问题就在这里。我想知道getline函数是否使用realloc函数，并在缓冲区不够时释放缓冲区。下面是另一个测试代码。我得到的观点是 getline 函数用 128 字节初始化 malloc 内存。但当缓冲区不够时，它不会使用 realloc 函数来分配缓冲区。

以下测试代码分配 3 个缓冲区。 getline 函数缓冲区位于中间。初始化的 getline 缓冲区为 128 字节。然后我再次调用 getline 函数来获取超过 128 字节的缓冲区。我在 free 函数中设置了断点，但它没有被调用。

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

int main(int argc, char** argv)                 
{

    char *buffer = NULL;
    char *buffer1 = NULL;
    char *buffer2 = NULL;
    size_t bufsize = 32;
    size_t characters;


    buffer1 = (char *)malloc(bufsize * sizeof(char));
    if( buffer1 == NULL)
    {
        perror("Unable to allocate buffer");
        exit(1);
    }

    printf("buffer1 = 0x%p\n", buffer1);
    printf("Type something: ");
    characters = getline(&buffer,&bufsize,stdin);

    printf(" get line buffer  = 0x%p\n", buffer);
    buffer2 = (char *)malloc(bufsize * sizeof(char));
    if( buffer2 == NULL)
    {
        perror("Unable to allocate buffer");
        exit(1);
    }
    memset(buffer2, 21,bufsize);

    printf("buffer2 = 0x%p\n", buffer2);
    printf("buffer2 content = %s\n", buffer2);
    printf("%zu characters were read.\n",characters);
    printf("You typed: '%s'\n",buffer);
    printf("The address is  = 0x%p\n", buffer);

    characters = getline(&buffer,&bufsize,stdin);
    printf("%zu characters were read.\n",characters);
    printf("You typed: '%s'\n",buffer);
    printf("The address is change = 0x%p\n", buffer);
    free(buffer);
    return(0);
}
