C语言指针深度解析：从硬件架构到现代安全编程 - 详解
C 语言指针解析
一、指针的硬件基础：从 CPU 架构看指针实现
1.1 内存地址空间与 CPU 架构
指针的本质是内存地址，而内存地址的理解必须从 CPU 架构层面开始。在 32 位系统中，指针占用 4 字节，能够访问的最大内存空间为 2^32 = 4GB；在 64 位系统中，指针占用 8 字节，理论上能够访问 2^64 字节的内存空间。
#include
#include
int main() {
printf("Size of pointer: %zu bytesn", sizeof(void*));
// 查看系统的内存地址空间范围
uintptr_t min_addr = (uintptr_t)0x00000000;
uintptr_t max_32bit = (uintptr_t)0xFFFFFFFF;
uintptr_t max_64bit = (uintptr_t)0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF;
printf("32-bit address range: 0x%lx to 0x%lxn", min_addr, max_32bit);
printf("64-bit address range: 0x%lx to 0x%lxn", min_addr, max_64bit);
return 0;
} 1.2 CPU 寄存器与指针操作
在 CPU 层面，指针操作主要通过专用寄存器实现：
ESP/RSP 寄存器：栈指针寄存器，指向当前栈顶
EBP/RBP 寄存器：基址指针寄存器，用于函数栈帧定位
EIP/RIP 寄存器：指令指针寄存器，指向当前执行的指令
#include
// 通过内联汇编查看寄存器状态
void print_registers() {
register void *rsp asm("rsp");
register void * rbp asm("rbp");
register void * rip asm("rip");
printf("RSP (Stack Pointer): %pn", rsp);
printf("RBP (Base Pointer): %pn", rbp);
printf("RIP (Instruction Pointer): %pn", rip);
}
int main() {
printf("Register values:n");
print_registers();
return 0;
} 1.3 内存访问模式与缓存机制
CPU 访问内存的方式直接影响指针操作的性能。现代 CPU 采用多层缓存架构，理解缓存机制对于优化指针操作至关重要。
#include
#include
#include
#define ARRAY_SIZE (1024 * 1024 * 100) // 100MB数组
// 测试缓存对指针访问性能的影响
void cache_performance_test() {
int *array = malloc(ARRAY_SIZE * sizeof(int));
clock_t start, end;
double time_sequential, time_random;
// 顺序访问（缓存友好）
start = clock();
for (int i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE; i++) {
array[i] = i;
}
end = clock();
time_sequential = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
// 随机访问（缓存不友好）
start = clock();
for (int i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE; i++) {
int random_idx = rand() % ARRAY_SIZE;
array[random_idx] = i;
}
end = clock();
time_random = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
printf("Sequential access time: %.3f secondsn", time_sequential);
printf("Random access time: %.3f secondsn", time_random);
printf("Performance ratio: %.2fxn", time_random / time_sequential);
free(array);
}
int main() {
cache_performance_test();
return 0;
} 二、指针性能优化：缓存、对齐与指令优化
2.1 内存对齐优化
内存对齐是指针性能优化的重要方面。CPU 访问对齐的内存地址比非对齐地址要快得多，甚至在某些架构上非对齐访问会导致错误。
#include
#include
#include
#include
// 非对齐结构体
struct UnalignedStruct {
char c;
int i;
short s;
};
// 对齐结构体
struct AlignedStruct {
int i;
short s;
char c;
// 使用编译器扩展进行强制对齐
} __attribute__((aligned(8)));
// C11标准的对齐方式
struct C11AlignedStruct {
int i;
short s;
char c;
} __attribute__((aligned(8)));
// 测试对齐对性能的影响
void alignment_performance_test() {
const int COUNT = 100000000;
struct UnalignedStruct *unaligned = malloc(sizeof(struct UnalignedStruct) * COUNT);
struct AlignedStruct *aligned = malloc(sizeof(struct AlignedStruct) * COUNT);
clock_t start, end;
double time_unaligned, time_aligned;
// 测试非对齐访问
start = clock();
for (int i = 0; i < COUNT; i++) {
unaligned[i].i = i;
}
end = clock();
time_unaligned = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
// 测试对齐访问
start = clock();
for (int i = 0; i < COUNT; i++) {
aligned[i].i = i;
}
end = clock();
time_aligned = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
printf("Unaligned access time: %.3f secondsn", time_unaligned);
printf("Aligned access time: %.3f secondsn", time_aligned);
printf("Performance improvement: %.2f%%n",
(time_unaligned - time_aligned) / time_unaligned * 100);
free(unaligned);
free(aligned);
}
int main() {
printf("Size of unaligned struct: %zu bytesn", sizeof(struct UnalignedStruct));
printf("Size of aligned struct: %zu bytesn", sizeof(struct AlignedStruct));
alignment_performance_test();
return 0;
} 2.2 指针算术与循环优化
指针算术是 C 语言的强大特性，但不当使用会导致性能问题。通过合理的指针操作和循环优化，可以显著提升程序性能。
#include
#include
#include
#include
#define DATA_SIZE (1024 * 1024 * 100) // 100MB数据
// 传统数组下标访问
void array_index_access(int *data, size_t size) {
for (size_t i = 0; i < size; i++) {
data[i] = i * 2;
}
}
// 指针算术访问（优化版）
void pointer_arithmetic_access(int *data, size_t size) {
int *end = data + size;
int value = 0;
while (data < end) {
*data++ = value;
value += 2;
}
}
// 指针算术访问（更优版，减少变量）
void optimized_pointer_access(int *data, size_t size) {
int *end = data + size;
int *p = data;
for (; p < end; p++) {
*p = (p - data) * 2;
}
}
// 测试不同访问方式的性能
void pointer_performance_test() {
int *data = malloc(DATA_SIZE * sizeof(int));
clock_t start, end;
double time_index, time_ptr1, time_ptr2;
// 数组下标访问
start = clock();
array_index_access(data, DATA_SIZE);
end = clock();
time_index = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
// 指针算术访问1
start = clock();
pointer_arithmetic_access(data, DATA_SIZE);
end = clock();
time_ptr1 = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
// 指针算术访问2
start = clock();
optimized_pointer_access(data, DATA_SIZE);
end = clock();
time_ptr2 = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
printf("Array index access time: %.3f secondsn", time_index);
printf("Pointer arithmetic access time: %.3f secondsn", time_ptr1);
printf("Optimized pointer access time: %.3f secondsn", time_ptr2);
printf("Best performance improvement: %.2f%%n",
(time_index - time_ptr2) / time_index * 100);
free(data);
}
int main() {
pointer_performance_test();
return 0;
} 2.3 编译器优化与指针
现代编译器提供了多种优化选项，可以显著提升指针操作的性能。理解这些优化选项对于编写高性能代码至关重要。
#include
#include
#include
#define SIZE 100000000
// 示例：矩阵乘法
void matrix_multiply(const double *A, const double *B, double *C,
int rowsA, int colsA, int colsB) {
for (int i = 0; i < rowsA; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < colsB; j++) {
double sum = 0.0;
for (int k = 0; k < colsA; k++) {
sum += A[i * colsA + k] * B[k * colsB + j];
}
C[i * colsB + j] = sum;
}
}
}
// 缓存优化版矩阵乘法（行优先访问）
void optimized_matrix_multiply(const double *A, const double *B, double *C,
int rowsA, int colsA, int colsB) {
// 缓存B矩阵的列，提高缓存命中率
double *B_cols = malloc(colsA * colsB * sizeof(double));
for (int k = 0; k < colsA; k++) {
for (int j = 0; j < colsB; j++) {
B_cols[j * colsA + k] = B[k * colsB + j];
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < rowsA; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < colsB; j++) {
double sum = 0.0;
const double *a_row = A + i * colsA;
const double *b_col = B_cols + j * colsA;
for (int k = 0; k < colsA; k++) {
sum += a_row[k] * b_col[k];
}
C[i * colsB + j] = sum;
}
}
free(B_cols);
}
int main() {
const int rowsA = 200;
const int colsA = 200;
const int colsB = 200;
double *A = malloc(rowsA * colsA * sizeof(double));
double *B = malloc(colsA * colsB * sizeof(double));
double *C = malloc(rowsA * colsB * sizeof(double));
// 初始化矩阵
for (int i = 0; i < rowsA * colsA; i++) A[i] = rand() / (double)RAND_MAX;
for (int i = 0; i < colsA * colsB; i++) B[i] = rand() / (double)RAND_MAX;
clock_t start, end;
double time_original, time_optimized;
// 原始矩阵乘法
start = clock();
matrix_multiply(A, B, C, rowsA, colsA, colsB);
end = clock();
time_original = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
// 优化矩阵乘法
start = clock();
optimized_matrix_multiply(A, B, C, rowsA, colsA, colsB);
end = clock();
time_optimized = (double)(end - start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
printf("Original matrix multiply time: %.3f secondsn", time_original);
printf("Optimized matrix multiply time: %.3f secondsn", time_optimized);
printf("Performance improvement: %.2f%%n",
(time_original - time_optimized) / time_original * 100);
free(A);
free(B);
free(C);
return 0;
} 三、安全编程实践：防御策略与工具使用
3.1 指针安全的四大原则
指针安全编程需要遵循四大基本原则：初始化、检查、释放、置空。
#include
#include
#include
// 安全指针操作的宏定义
#define SAFE_FREE(ptr) do {
if (ptr != NULL) {
free(ptr);
ptr = NULL;
}
} while (0)
#define CHECK_POINTER(ptr, msg) do {
if (ptr == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Error: %s (file: %s, line: %d)n",
msg, __FILE__, __LINE__);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
} while (0)
// 安全的字符串复制函数
char *safe_strdup(const char *str) {
CHECK_POINTER(str, "Null pointer passed to safe_strdup");
size_t len = strlen(str) + 1;
char *dup = malloc(len);
CHECK_POINTER(dup, "Memory allocation failed in safe_strdup");
memcpy(dup, str, len);
return dup;
}
// 安全的内存分配函数
void *safe_malloc(size_t size, const char *file, int line) {
void *ptr = malloc(size);
if (ptr == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Memory allocation failed: %zu bytes "
"(file: %s, line: %d)n", size, file, line);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
return ptr;
}
// 简化的安全分配宏
#define SAFE_MALLOC(size) safe_malloc(size, __FILE__, __LINE__)
// 示例：安全的结构体操作
typedef struct {
char *name;
int age;
double score;
} Student;
Student *create_student(const char *name, int age, double score) {
Student *student = SAFE_MALLOC(sizeof(Student));
student->name = safe_strdup(name);
student->age = age;
student->score = score;
return student;
}
void destroy_student(Student **student_ptr) {
CHECK_POINTER(student_ptr, "Null pointer to pointer in destroy_student");
CHECK_POINTER(*student_ptr, "Null student pointer in destroy_student");
Student *student = *student_ptr;
SAFE_FREE(student->name);
SAFE_FREE(student);
*student_ptr = NULL;
}
void print_student(const Student *student) {
CHECK_POINTER(student, "Null student pointer in print_student");
printf("Name: %s, Age: %d, Score: %.2fn",
student->name, student->age, student->score);
}
int main() {
Student *student = create_student("John Doe", 20, 85.5);
print_student(student);
destroy_student(&student);
// 验证指针已被置空
if (student == NULL) {
printf("Student pointer successfully set to NULLn");
}
return 0;
} 3.2 静态分析工具的使用
现代 C 语言开发中，静态分析工具能够在编译阶段发现潜在的指针问题。
#include
#include
#include
// 示例：容易出错的指针操作
void problematic_function() {
char *str = malloc(10);
if (str == NULL) {
// 缺少错误处理
return;
}
strcpy(str, "Hello World"); // 缓冲区溢出
char *ptr;
*ptr = 'A'; // 使用未初始化的指针
free(str);
free(str); // 重复释放
char local_str[10] = "Local";
char *return_ptr = local_str; // 返回局部变量地址
}
// 改进版：使用静态分析友好的代码
void improved_function() {
const size_t BUFFER_SIZE = 10;
char *str = malloc(BUFFER_SIZE);
if (str == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Memory allocation failedn");
return;
}
// 使用安全的字符串复制函数
const char *source = "Hello World";
if (strlen(source) >= BUFFER_SIZE) {
fprintf(stderr, "Source string too longn");
free(str);
return;
}
strcpy(str, source);
char *ptr = malloc(1);
if (ptr != NULL) {
*ptr = 'A';
free(ptr);
}
free(str);
str = NULL; // 避免野指针
// 使用动态分配而不是返回局部变量
char *return_ptr = malloc(10);
if (return_ptr != NULL) {
strcpy(return_ptr, "Dynamic");
}
}
// 示例：使用C11的_Alignas和_Atomic特性
typedef struct {
_Alignas(8) int aligned_int;
_Atomic int atomic_int;
} ModernStruct;
void modern_features_demo() {
ModernStruct *ms = malloc(sizeof(ModernStruct));
if (ms != NULL) {
ms->aligned_int = 42;
ms->atomic_int = 100;
printf("Aligned int: %dn", ms->aligned_int);
printf("Atomic int: %dn", ms->atomic_int);
free(ms);
}
}
int main() {
improved_function();
modern_features_demo();
return 0;
} 3.3 动态检测工具的应用
动态检测工具能够在运行时发现指针问题，是安全编程的重要辅助工具。
#include
#include
#include
#include
// 内存泄漏检测示例
void memory_leak_example() {
char *leaked_memory = malloc(100);
strcpy(leaked_memory, "This memory will leak");
// 忘记释放内存
}
// 缓冲区溢出示例
void buffer_overflow_example() {
char buffer[10];
strcpy(buffer, "This string is too long"); // 缓冲区溢出
}
// 使用断言进行调试检查
void assert_demo() {
int *ptr = malloc(10 * sizeof(int));
assert(ptr != NULL);
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
ptr[i] = i;
}
// 数组越界检查
int index = 15;
assert(index >= 0 && index < 10);
printf("Value at index %d: %dn", index, ptr[index]);
free(ptr);
}
// 内存越界检测示例
void out_of_bounds_example() {
int *array = malloc(5 * sizeof(int));
if (array != NULL) {
array[10] = 42; // 越界访问
free(array);
}
}
// 使用Valgrind友好的内存管理
void valgrind_friendly_code() {
// 分配内存并初始化
char *buffer = calloc(100, sizeof(char));
if (buffer != NULL) {
strncpy(buffer, "Safe copy", 99);
free(buffer);
buffer = NULL; // 避免野指针
}
// 使用柔性数组
typedef struct {
size_t size;
int data[];
} FlexibleArray;
size_t array_size = 10;
FlexibleArray *fa = malloc(sizeof(FlexibleArray) + array_size * sizeof(int));
if (fa != NULL) {
fa->size = array_size;
for (size_t i = 0; i < array_size; i++) {
fa->data[i] = i;
}
free(fa);
}
}
int main() {
// 这些函数在实际运行时会被Valgrind检测到问题
// memory_leak_example();
// buffer_overflow_example();
// assert_demo();
// out_of_bounds_example();
valgrind_friendly_code();
return 0;
} 四、现代 C 语言特性：C11/C17 中的指针增强
4.1 C11 标准中的指针新特性
C11 标准引入了多个与指针相关的新特性，包括_Alignas、_Atomic、stdalign.h等。
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
// C11对齐特性示例
void alignment_demo() {
// 使用_Alignas关键字
_Alignas(16) int aligned_int;
printf("Aligned int address: %pn", &aligned_int);
// 使用stdalign.h中的宏
alignas(32) char aligned_buffer[1024];
printf("Aligned buffer address: %pn", aligned_buffer);
// 结构体对齐
typedef struct {
char c;
alignas(8) int i;
short s;
} AlignedStruct;
printf("Size of AlignedStruct: %zu bytesn", sizeof(AlignedStruct));
printf("Alignment of AlignedStruct: %zu bytesn", alignof(AlignedStruct));
}
// C11原子操作示例
_Atomic int shared_counter = 0;
int thread_function(void *arg) {
for (int i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
atomic_fetch_add(&shared_counter, 1);
}
return 0;
}
void atomic_demo() {
thrd_t thread1, thread2;
thrd_create(&thread1, thread_function, NULL);
thrd_create(&thread2, thread_function, NULL);
thrd_join(thread1, NULL);
thrd_join(thread2, NULL);
printf("Final counter value: %dn", shared_counter);
}
// C11泛型选择表达式
#define max(a, b) _Generic((a),
int: max_int,
long: max_long,
double: max_double
)(a, b)
int max_int(int a, int b) { return a > b ? a : b; }
long max_long(long a, long b) { return a > b ? a : b; }
double max_double(double a, double b) { return a > b ? a : b; }
void generic_demo() {
int i = 10, j = 20;
long l = 100L, m = 200L;
double d = 3.14, e = 2.71;
printf("Max int: %dn", max(i, j));
printf("Max long: %ldn", max(l, m));
printf("Max double: %.2fn", max(d, e));
}
// C11静态断言
void static_assert_demo() {
// 编译时检查指针大小
static_assert(sizeof(void*) == 8, "64-bit system required");
// 检查结构体对齐
typedef struct {
int a;
char b;
} TestStruct;
static_assert(sizeof(TestStruct) == 8, "Struct size mismatch");
}
int main() {
alignment_demo();
atomic_demo();
generic_demo();
static_assert_demo();
return 0;
} 4.2 C17 标准的改进
C17 标准虽然没有引入太多新的指针特性，但对现有特性进行了优化和澄清。
#include
#include
#include
#include
// C17中改进的内存分配函数行为
void c17_malloc_behavior() {
// C17澄清了malloc(0)的行为
void *ptr = malloc(0);
if (ptr != NULL) {
printf("malloc(0) returned non-null pointer: %pn", ptr);
free(ptr);
} else {
printf("malloc(0) returned null pointern");
}
// 使用aligned_alloc进行对齐分配
size_t alignment = 16;
size_t size = 1024;
void *aligned_ptr = aligned_alloc(alignment, size);
if (aligned_ptr != NULL) {
printf("Aligned allocation successful: %pn", aligned_ptr);
free(aligned_ptr);
}
}
// C17中更严格的类型检查
void strict_type_checking() {
int *int_ptr = malloc(sizeof(int));
if (int_ptr != NULL) {
*int_ptr = 42;
// C17中不允许隐式的void*到其他类型的转换
// char *char_ptr = malloc(sizeof(char)); // C17中需要显式转换
char *char_ptr = (char*)malloc(sizeof(char));
free(int_ptr);
free(char_ptr);
}
}
// 使用restrict关键字优化指针别名
void process_data(int *restrict dst, const int *restrict src, size_t size) {
for (size_t i = 0; i < size; i++) {
dst[i] = src[i] * 2;
}
}
void restrict_demo() {
const size_t size = 1000;
int *src = malloc(size * sizeof(int));
int *dst = malloc(size * sizeof(int));
if (src != NULL && dst != NULL) {
for (size_t i = 0; i < size; i++) {
src[i] = i;
}
process_data(dst, src, size);
printf("First 5 elements: ");
for (size_t i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
printf("%d ", dst[i]);
}
printf("n");
}
free(src);
free(dst);
}
// C17中改进的函数指针类型
typedef int (*MathFunction)(int, int);
int add(int a, int b) { return a + b; }
int subtract(int a, int b) { return a - b; }
int multiply(int a, int b) { return a * b; }
void function_pointer_demo() {
MathFunction operations[] = {add, subtract, multiply};
const char *operation_names[] = {"Addition", "Subtraction", "Multiplication"};
int a = 10, b = 5;
for (size_t i = 0; i < sizeof(operations) / sizeof(operations[0]); i++) {
int result = operations[i](a, b);
printf("%s: %d %c %d = %dn", operation_names[i], a,
"+-*"[i], b, result);
}
}
int main() {
c17_malloc_behavior();
strict_type_checking();
restrict_demo();
function_pointer_demo();
return 0;
} 五、高级应用案例：内存池、自定义分配器等
5.1 内存池实现
内存池是一种高效的内存管理技术，能够显著提升频繁内存分配和释放的性能。
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
// 内存池结构体
typedef struct {
void *memory; // 内存池起始地址
size_t block_size; // 每个块的大小
size_t block_count; // 总块数
size_t free_blocks; // 空闲块数
void **free_list; // 空闲块链表
size_t alignment; // 内存对齐要求
} MemoryPool;
// 创建内存池
MemoryPool *memory_pool_create(size_t block_size, size_t block_count, size_t alignment) {
// 确保块大小至少能容纳一个指针
if (block_size < sizeof(void*)) {
block_size = sizeof(void*);
}
// 调整块大小以满足对齐要求
if (alignment > 0) {
block_size = (block_size + alignment - 1) & ~(alignment - 1);
}
// 计算总内存需求
size_t total_memory_size = block_size * block_count;
size_t free_list_size = sizeof(void*) * block_count;
// 分配内存池
MemoryPool *pool = malloc(sizeof(MemoryPool));
if (pool == NULL) {
return NULL;
}
// 分配内存池内存（使用aligned_alloc进行对齐分配）
if (alignment > 0) {
pool->memory = aligned_alloc(alignment, total_memory_size);
} else {
pool->memory = malloc(total_memory_size);
}
if (pool->memory == NULL) {
free(pool);
return NULL;
}
// 分配空闲链表
pool->free_list = malloc(free_list_size);
if (pool->free_list == NULL) {
free(pool->memory);
free(pool);
return NULL;
}
// 初始化内存池参数
pool->block_size = block_size;
pool->block_count = block_count;
pool->free_blocks = block_count;
pool->alignment = alignment;
// 初始化空闲链表
for (size_t i = 0; i < block_count; i++) {
pool->free_list[i] = (char*)pool->memory + i * block_size;
}
return pool;
}
// 从内存池分配内存
void *memory_pool_alloc(MemoryPool *pool) {
if (pool == NULL || pool->free_blocks == 0) {
return NULL;
}
// 从空闲链表头部获取一个块
void *block = pool->free_list[--pool->free_blocks];
return block;
}
// 释放内存到内存池
void memory_pool_free(MemoryPool *pool, void *block) {
if (pool == NULL || block == NULL) {
return;
}
// 检查块是否在内存池范围内
if (block < pool->memory ||
block >= (char*)pool->memory + pool->block_size * pool->block_count) {
return;
}
// 将块添加到空闲链表
pool->free_list[pool->free_blocks++] = block;
}
// 销毁内存池
void memory_pool_destroy(MemoryPool *pool) {
if (pool != NULL) {
free(pool->memory);
free(pool->free_list);
free(pool);
}
}
// 内存池状态信息
void memory_pool_stats(MemoryPool *pool) {
if (pool == NULL) {
return;
}
printf("Memory Pool Statistics:n");
printf(" Block size: %zu bytesn", pool->block_size);
printf(" Total blocks: %zun", pool->block_count);
printf(" Free blocks: %zun", pool->free_blocks);
printf(" Used blocks: %zun", pool->block_count - pool->free_blocks);
printf(" Usage rate: %.1f%%n",
(float)(pool->block_count - pool->free_blocks) / pool->block_count * 100);
printf(" Alignment: %zu bytesn", pool->alignment);
}
// 性能测试：比较内存池和malloc的性能
void performance_test() {
const size_t block_size = 64;
const size_t block_count = 10000;
const size_t iterations = 100000;
// 创建内存池
MemoryPool *pool = memory_pool_create(block_size, block_count, 8);
if (pool == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to create memory pooln");
return;
}
clock_t start, end;

6.1 GDB 调试指针技巧
GDB 是调试 C 语言程序的强大工具，掌握 GDB 的指针调试技巧对于定位指针问题至关重要。

printf("n");
printf("String: %sn", str_ptr);
// 指针运算示例
int *ptr = int_ptr + 5;
printf("Pointer arithmetic: int_ptr + 5 = %p, value = %dn", ptr, *ptr);
// 函数指针示例
int (*func_ptr)(int, int) = NULL;
free(int_ptr);
free(str_ptr);
}
// 常见指针错误示例（用于GDB调试练习）
void pointer_errors() {
// 1. 未初始化指针
int *uninit_ptr;
// *uninit_ptr = 42; // 未定义行为
// 2. 空指针解引用
int *null_ptr = NULL;
// *null_ptr = 100; // 段错误
// 3. 野指针
int *wild_ptr = (int*)0x12345678;
// *wild_ptr = 99; // 段错误
// 4. 内存泄漏
char *leaked = malloc(100);
strcpy(leaked, "This memory will leak");
// 5. 重复释放
int *double_free = malloc(sizeof(int));
free(double_free);
// free(double_free); // 错误
// 6. 缓冲区溢出
char buffer[10];
// strcpy(buffer, "This string is too long"); // 缓冲区溢出
}
