为什么Valgrind在PETSc中的字符*赋值时报告大小为8的无效写入？

我在PETSc的申请被终止了。我已经检查了Valgrind的情况，但我不理解它的报告：

==97331== Invalid write of size 8

在tsresil.c:525中（我在PETSc中的实现）：

在inherit.c中：

 22: /*
 23:    PetscHeaderCreate_Private - Creates a base PETSc object header and fills
 24:    in the default values.  Called by the macro PetscHeaderCreate().
 25: */
 26: PetscErrorCode  PetscHeaderCreate_Private(PetscObject h,PetscClassId classid,const char class_name[],const char descr[],const char mansec[],
 27:                                           MPI_Comm comm,PetscObjectDestroyFunction destroy,PetscObjectViewFunction view)
 28: {
 29:   static PetscInt idcnt = 1;
 30:   PetscErrorCode  ierr;
 31: #if defined(PETSC_USE_LOG)
 32:   PetscObject     *newPetscObjects;
 33:   PetscInt         newPetscObjectsMaxCounts,i;
 34: #endif

 37:   h->classid               = classid;
 38:   h->type                  = 0;
 39:   h->class_name            = (char*)class_name;
 40:   h->description           = (char*)descr;
 41:   h->mansec                = (char*)mansec;

 ...

PetsObject是指向以下对象的指针：

typedef struct _p_PetscObject {
  ...
  char                 *class_name;    /*  for example, "Vec" */
  char                 *description;
  ...

---

因此，问题似乎与

char*descr

的赋值有关，但我看不出原因。大小8会通知指针错误否？

看起来Valgrind在抱怨，因为您只为PetsObject分配了1780字节，而这8字节的写入（从字节1776开始）足以写入未分配的内存

---

您需要增加分配的大小，或者增加结构的大小，这取决于分配的完整定义和方法。

很难从上下文中分辨出来，但Valgrind似乎在抱怨，因为您只为PetsObject分配了1780字节，而这是8字节的写操作（从字节1776开始）足以写入您未分配的内存。请更新问题以显示如何分配PetsObject。这是有意义的！PetsObject的分配肯定太小。请稍候，我会检查您是否将我放入正确的方向。我不知道，但“所有PETSc对象都以PETSCHEADER中定义的字段开头。”。将PETSCHEADER添加到我的PetscObject中解决了我的问题。听起来不错。然后我会将我的评论作为答案发布。

typedef struct _p_PetscObject {
  ...
  char                 *class_name;    /*  for example, "Vec" */
  char                 *description;
  ...
