在退出时释放 LLVM 分配的所有内存

Question

我正在使用 LLVM-C 编写一个小玩具语言。 我也在使用 valgrind 来检查内存泄漏。

这是我的基本婴儿计划：

#include <stdio.h>
#include <llvm-c/Core.h>

int main()
{
    size_t length;
    LLVMModuleRef module = LLVMModuleCreateWithName("llvm.hello");
    printf("Module name: %s\n", LLVMGetModuleIdentifier(module, &length));
    LLVMDisposeModule(module);
    LLVMShutDown();
    return 0;
}

我可以按预期正常编译和运行程序。但是，当我通过 valgrind 运行程序时，它告诉我我有一些像这样“仍然可以访问”的分配内存。

valgrind  --leak-check=full  out/hello_llvm

==5807== LEAK SUMMARY:
==5807==    definitely lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
==5807==    indirectly lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
==5807==      possibly lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
==5807==    still reachable: 56 bytes in 2 blocks
==5807==         suppressed: 0 bytes in 0 blocks

在此站点上搜索答案时，我发现许多编码人员都说“仍然可以访问”内存泄漏并不是什么大问题。我不想为此争论。我想要的是在终止我的程序之前摆脱所有分配的内存。

有什么方法可以在终止前将分配的内存减少到零？

valgrind不给0的时候也让我很紧张，在这种情况下我会创建一个抑制文件，如果你想试试看：

创建并编译一个最小测试：

> cat demo.c
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
{
    malloc(10); // leak
}

创建抑制文件：

valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes --error-limit=no --gen-suppressions=all --log-file=minimal.supp ./demo

编辑生成的minimal.supp 文件，你会看到类似

==3102== 
{
   <insert_a_suppression_name_here>

   match-leak-kinds: definite
   fun:malloc
   fun:main
}
==3102== LEAK SUMMARY:

==3102== 
==3102== For lists of detected and suppressed errors, rerun with: -s
==3102== ERROR SUMMARY: 1 errors from 1 contexts (suppressed: 0 from 0)

删除所有以== 开头的行并保存如下内容：

{
   <my stupid external LLVM leak>
   Memcheck:Leak
   match-leak-kinds: definite
   fun:malloc
   fun:main
}

现在使用抑制文件运行 valgrind：

valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes --error-limit=no --suppressions=minimal.supp ./demo

结果是：

如您所见，泄漏已从“肯定丢失”变为“已抑制”
