将结构从x-> y转换为x.y并删除malloc时出现Valgrind错误.努力学习C(前16) – 额外学分

我有学习C The Hard Way(
http://c.learncodethehardway.org/book/ex16.html)练习16的额外学分的问题,我正在尝试转换结构,所以他们没有使用malloc.我提出了这个代码(我不确定我是否应该粘贴原始代码或链接就足够了):

#include <stdio.h>
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

struct Person {
    char *name;
    int age;
    int height;
    int weight;
};

void Person_print(struct Person who)
{
    printf("Name: %s\n", who.name);
    printf("\tAge: %d\n", who.age);
    printf("\tHeight: %d\n", who.height);
    printf("\tWeight: %d\n", who.weight);
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    struct Person joe = {"Joe Alex", 32, 64, 140};
    struct Person frank = {"Frank Blank", 20, 72, 180};

    // print them out and where they are in memory
    printf("Joe is at memory location %p:\n", &joe);
    Person_print(joe);

    printf("Frank is at memory location %p:\n", &frank);
    Person_print(frank);

    // make everyone age 20 years and print them again
    joe.age += 20;
    joe.height -= 2;
    joe.weight += 40;
    Person_print(joe);

    frank.age += 20;
    frank.weight += 20;
    Person_print(frank);

    return 0;
}

代码编译没有任何错误或警告,并按预期工作.如果我通过Valgrind运行它,我得到以下输出:

我无法理解Valgrind输出,我将非常感谢任何解释.我试图在Print_person函数中注释掉这些行:

/* printf("\tAge: %d\n", who.age); */
/* printf("\tHeight: %d\n", who.height); */
/* printf("\tWeight: %d\n", who.weight); */

没有他们Valgrind没有发现任何错误,但我无法理解为什么.

最佳答案 您可以忽略此警告.它与C标准库中的正常(如果不常见)行为有关.

(具体来说,memchr()函数的Mac OS X实现,它在内存块中搜索一个字节,通过一次读取多个字节来优化内存访问.这可能涉及访问块末尾之外的未初始化内存,Valgrind检测到这是一个潜在的错误.)
