Valgrind "still reachable bytes" after API calls

CDB and CDB API
1

Hi,
Looks like some of the allocated bytes aren’t getting free’d when calling some of the API functions, such as: confd_init, confd_ha_connect, confd_ha_bemaster, confd_ha_beslave, etc…

I have confd basic 5.4.
I compiled the example examples.confd/ha/dummy with make all. Then make start.
Now, for example, when running the following command:

valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes ./ctrl master node0
I get this output:

It happens also for “slave” and “none”…

From the ConfD UG Chapter “General Troubleshooting Strategies”:

When debugging application memory leaks with a tool like valgrind, it is often necessary to rebuild libconfd from source, since the default build uses a “pool allocator” that makes the stack trace information for memory leaks from valgrind completely misleading for allocations from libconfd. The details of how to do a build that disables the pool allocator are described in the “Application debugging” section of the README in the libconfd source package.

The ConfD Basic libconfd source package tarball is called confd-basic-X.X.libconfd.tar.gz

Hi again.
I tried to rebuild the libconfd.a but there is still inconsistency between the allocated and frees from valgrind point of view.

My simple code example is (even though, there’s a leak also only for main() with the code: confd_init()):

#include <stdio.h>
#include <confd_lib.h>
#include <confd_cdb.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main() {

        struct sockaddr_in addr;
        int sock;
        char *confd_addr = "127.0.0.1";
        int confd_port = CONFD_PORT;

        addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr(confd_addr);
        addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
        addr.sin_port = htons(confd_port);

        confd_init("valgrind", stderr, CONFD_TRACE);

        if ((sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0)
                confd_fatal("Failed to create socket");

        if (confd_load_schemas((struct sockaddr*)&addr, sizeof (struct sockaddr_in)) != CONFD_OK)
                confd_fatal("Failed to load schemas from confd");

        if (cdb_connect(sock, CDB_DATA_SOCKET, (struct sockaddr *)&addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) != CONFD_OK)
                confd_fatal("Failed to connect to ConfD");

        cdb_close(sock);

        printf("finished\n");
}

I compile it using:

gcc -o main main.c -I/confd/include -pthread libconfd.a

When I run it with valgrind:

valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes --track-origins=yes ./main

I get the output (summary, the rest is in the end):

==19422== HEAP SUMMARY:
==19422==     in use at exit: 274,458 bytes in 5,024 blocks
==19422==   total heap usage: 13,747 allocs, 8,723 frees, 603,677 bytes allocated

Now, I read the README file, and compiled libconfd.a with export NO_FIX_ALLOC=yes, then make
I compiled my code with:

gcc -o main main.c -I/confd/include -pthread libconfd_NO_FIX_ALLOC.a

I repeated the process and the valgrind’s output was (summary, the rest is in the end):

==19437== HEAP SUMMARY:
==19437==     in use at exit: 178,802 bytes in 3,937 blocks
==19437==   total heap usage: 32,933 allocs, 28,996 frees, 1,967,677 bytes allocated

Is there’s something I’m doing wrong?
Thanks.

There are some allocations done by condf_init() and condf_load_schemas()/maapi_load_schemas() etc. for which there is no “free” counterpart. This memory is kept under control by the libconfd library.

So there is no memory leak in your example application since all memory not free():ed are still reachable, i.e. “semi permanent” allocations.

E.g. mutex, callpoint registrations, active user session etc. that isn’t free():ed at exit() since there is no point in doing that. The libconfd library code reuses the memory or free and allocate the same amount again.

Is there a way to differentiate between this still reachable bytes you’re talking about, and the following scenario:

A lib that continuously allocating memory without free()'ing?

Here is another explanation on the type of “still reachable” blocks ConfD use that I Googled:

In general, there is no need to worry about “still reachable” blocks. They don’t pose the sort of problem that true memory leaks can cause. For instance, there is normally no potential for heap exhaustion from “still reachable” blocks. This is because these blocks are usually one-time allocations, references to which are kept throughout the duration of the process’s lifetime. While you could go through and ensure that your program frees all allocated memory, there is usually no practical benefit from doing so since the operating system will reclaim all of the process’s memory after the process terminates, anyway. Contrast this with true memory leaks which, if left unfixed, could cause a process to run out of memory if left running long enough, or will simply cause a process to consume far more memory than is necessary.
