也许我完全失明或愚蠢，但我不明白我是如何在这里遇到 valgrind 问题的。Valgrind 给了我这个：

当这种情况发生时，GDB 会给出回溯：

所以在这里可以看出，代码正在向 send() 发送一些分配的 24 字节数据，这就是 CBSocketSend 中发生的事情，然后 valgrind 在数据的 20 字节处向 sendto 抱怨。
我用这段代码填写数据：
peer->sendingHeader = malloc(24);
if (NOT peer->sendingHeader) {
CBNetworkCommunicatorDisconnect(self, peer, 0, false);
return;
}
peer->sendingHeader[0] = self->networkID;
peer->sendingHeader[1] = self->networkID >> 8;
peer->sendingHeader[2] = self->networkID >> 16;
peer->sendingHeader[3] = self->networkID >> 24;
// Get the message we are sending.
CBMessage * toSend = peer->sendQueue[peer->sendQueueFront];
// Message type text
if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_VERSION)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "version\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_VERACK)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "verack\0\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_ADDR)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "addr\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_INV)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "inv\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_GETDATA)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "getdata\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_GETBLOCKS)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "getblocks\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_GETHEADERS)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "getheaders\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_TX)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "tx\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_BLOCK)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "block\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_HEADERS)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "headers\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_GETADDR)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "getaddr\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_PING)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "ping\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_PONG)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "pong\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_ALERT)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, "alert\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 12);
else if (toSend->type == CB_MESSAGE_TYPE_ALT)
memcpy(peer->sendingHeader + 4, toSend->altText, 12);
// Length
if (toSend->bytes){
peer->sendingHeader[16] = toSend->bytes->length;
peer->sendingHeader[17] = toSend->bytes->length << 8;
peer->sendingHeader[18] = toSend->bytes->length << 16;
peer->sendingHeader[19] = toSend->bytes->length << 24;
}else{
memset(peer->sendingHeader + 16, 0, 4);
}
// Checksum
peer->sendingHeader[20] = toSend->checksum[0];
peer->sendingHeader[21] = toSend->checksum[1];
peer->sendingHeader[22] = toSend->checksum[2];
peer->sendingHeader[23] = toSend->checksum[3];
您可以很清楚地看到所有数据都已分配，对吗？那么 valgrind 在做什么呢？
您可以在这里看到明显引起麻烦的完整功能：https ://github.com/MatthewLM/cbitcoin/blob/master/src/structures/CBObject/CBNetworkCommunicator/CBNetworkCommunicator.c#L582
CBSocketSend 是这样的：
int32_t CBSocketSend(uint64_t socketID,uint8_t * data,uint32_t len){
ssize_t res = send((evutil_socket_t)socketID, data, len, CB_SEND_FLAGS);
if (res >= 0)
return (int32_t)res;
if (errno == EAGAIN)
return 0; // False event. Wait again.
return CB_SOCKET_FAILURE; // Failure
}

谢谢你。
