Possible memory leak problem
- by MaiTiano
I write two pieces of c programs like following, during memcheck process using Valgrind, a lot of mem leak information is given.
int
GetMemory(int framewidth,
int frameheight,
int SR/*, int blocksize*//*,int ALL_REF_NUM*/)
{
//int i,j;
int memory_size = 0;
//int refnum = ALL_REF_NUM;
int input_search_range = SR;
memory_size += get_mem2D(&curFrameY, frameheight, framewidth);
memory_size += get_mem2D(&curFrameU, frameheight>>1, framewidth>>1);
memory_size += get_mem2D(&curFrameV, frameheight>>1, framewidth>>1);
memory_size += get_mem3D(&prevFrameY, refnum, frameheight, framewidth);// to allocate reference frame buffer accoding to the reference frame number
memory_size += get_mem3D(&prevFrameU, refnum, frameheight>>1, framewidth>>1);
memory_size += get_mem3D(&prevFrameV, refnum, frameheight>>1, framewidth>>1);
memory_size += get_mem2D(&mpFrameY, frameheight, framewidth);
memory_size += get_mem2D(&mpFrameU, frameheight>>1, framewidth>>1);
memory_size += get_mem2D(&mpFrameV, frameheight>>1, framewidth>>1);
memory_size += get_mem2D(&searchwindow, input_search_range*2 + blocksize, input_search_range*2 + blocksize);// to allocate search window according to the searchrange
/*memory_size +=*/ get_mem1D(/*&SAD_cost, height, width*/);
// memory_size += get_mem2D(&searchwindow, 80, 80);// if searchrange is 32, then only 32+1+32+15 pixels is needed in each row and col, therefore the range of
// search window is enough to be set to 80 !
memory_size += get_mem2Dint(&all_mv, height/blocksize, width/blocksize);
return 0;
}
void
FreeMemory(int refno)
{
free_mem2D(curFrameY);
free_mem2D(curFrameU);
free_mem2D(curFrameV);
free_mem3D(prevFrameY,refno);
free_mem3D(prevFrameU,refno);
free_mem3D(prevFrameV,refno);
free_mem2D(mpFrameY);
free_mem2D(mpFrameU);
free_mem2D(mpFrameV);
free_mem2D(searchwindow);
free_mem1D();
free_mem2Dint(all_mv);
}
void free_mem1D()
{
free(SAD_cost);
}
Now I hope to make sure where are the possible problems in my program?
Here I may post some valgrind information to let you know about the actual error information.
