I'm working on the sleeping barber problem (using FIFO queue and shared memory), and I have a problem. I try to run this program just to see what is shown, however, I get segmentation fault every time. In the code I check, if semaphores are created successfully, if shared memory is created properly, but the program crashing must come from different place, which I cannot seem to find. I also tried to use Valgrind but what I got is:
Valgrind for the newer version of code:
However, when I try to run the code I still get segfault

This assignment is about solving the first reader-writer problem. I could compile it in linux using gcc -lpthread -lrt. But when I try to run it using the given format readwrtie 100 10 I got the segmentation fault (core dump) and I don't know why. I tried running with valgrind a.out to see the problem and I couldnt understand. Please help me.

In your writer function, change
printf("Writer %02d writes &d\n", *((int*)writeno), sleepval);
---------------------------^
to
printf("Writer %02d writes %d\n", *((int*)writeno), sleepval);
---------------------------^
In your main function, change
pthread_create(&read[i], NULL, (void *)reader, (void *)&id[i]);
pthread_create(&write[i], NULL, (void *)writer, (void *)&id[i]);
to
pthread_create(&read[i], NULL, reader, &id[i]);
pthread_create(&write[i], NULL, writer, &id[i]);
Add a return statement to the reader and writer function.
Remove the unused variable second in the main function.
Try again.
I'm writing some simple Alsa init code to setup a mixer, which I'll be using to set volume, etc. However, even basic code has memory leaks, despite using suggesting memory freeing method like snd_config_update_free_global(). If someone could check the snippet out and let me know what I'm missing, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
#include <alsa/asoundlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void PrintAlsaError(const char * str, int error_code) {
fprintf(stderr, str, snd_strerror(error_code));
}
int main() {
snd_mixer_t * handle;
snd_mixer_selem_id_t * sid;
snd_mixer_elem_t * elem;
const char * card = "default";
int error_code;
if ((error_code = snd_mixer_open(&handle, 0)) < 0) {
PrintAlsaError("unable to open handle, error: %s\n", error_code);
return -1;
} else if ((error_code = snd_mixer_attach(handle, card)) < 0) {
PrintAlsaError("unable to attach to card, error: %s\n", error_code);
snd_mixer_close(handle);
return -1;
} else if ((error_code = snd_mixer_selem_register(handle, NULL, NULL)) < 0) {

I have the following code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
void print_usage()
{
printf("%s\n", "usage");
}
int file_exist (char *filename)
{
struct stat buffer;
return (stat (filename, &buffer) == 0);
}
int parse_parameters(int argc, char *argv[], char** in)
{
unsigned int i1 = 1; // 0 is the filename
for (; i1 < argc; ++i1)
{
if( 0 == strcmp("-h", argv[i1]) )
{
print_usage();
return 0;
}
else if( 0 == strcmp("-i", argv[i1]) )
{
*in = malloc( sizeof(char) * strlen(argv[++i1]) + 1 );
strcpy(*in, argv[i1]);
continue;
}
else
{
print_usage();
return 1;
}
}
return 0;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
if( argc != 3 )
{
print_usage();
return 0;
}
char* in = NULL;
int parse = parse_parameters(argc, argv, &in);
if ( 0 != parse )
return parse;
printf("in: %s\n", in);
FILE* finput = NULL ;
if (file_exist(in))
finput = fopen(in, "r");
if (finput == NULL) {
perror("fopen");
exit(1);
}
free(in);
fclose(finput);
return 0;
}
After running it with valgrind with following parameters:
./main -i input
I get the following:

Why is that ? If I try to pass in as char* then it won't get changed after the parse_parameters function.
Your program is exiting as a result of the exit (1) call, which occurs before you free (in). As a result you are seeing the valgrind message.
