Valgrind：未初始化的值是由堆分配创建的

Question

我遇到了一些有关统一值和条件跳转的 Valgrind 错误。这是我的 Valgrind 输出

这是我的 'append_character' 函数。很简单的东西。

void append_character(char* str, char ch){
    int len = strlen(str) + 1;
    str[len] = ch;
    str[len + 1] = '[=11=]';
}

这是我的 'refresh_address' 函数。问题似乎出现在哪里。

void refresh_address(int memLength, address_info *mem, char *address){
     int j = 0;
     mem -> numSetIndexBits = calculate_set_index_bits();
     mem -> numBlockOffsetBits = calculate_block_offset_bits();
     mem -> numTagBits = calculate_num_tag_bits(memLength, mem);
     mem -> tag = malloc(mem -> numSetIndexBits * sizeof(char) + 1);
     mem -> setIndex = malloc(mem -> numSetIndexBits * sizeof(char) + 1);

     for(j = 0; j < mem -> numTagBits; ++j){
        append_character(mem -> tag, address[j]);
     }

     while (j < (mem -> numSetIndexBits + mem -> numTagBits)) {
        append_character(mem -> setIndex, address[j]);
        j++;
     }    
     mem -> decimalIndex = binary_decimal(mem -> setIndex);
}

我想不出我做错了什么。知道是什么原因造成的吗？感谢您的帮助！

编辑：address_info *mem 在 main 中使用以下代码初始化，其中 address_info 是一个结构。

 while(fgets(buffer, 130, stdin)){
    if(sscanf(buffer, "%c:%d:%d", &accessTypes[i], &accessSize[i], &address[i]) != EOF) {
        memory = malloc(sizeof(address_info));
        init_address_info(memory);

        if (accessTypes[i] == 'W') {
                memory -> accessType = "W";
        }
        else {
                memory -> accessType = "R";
        }
        binary_add = binary_address(address[i]);
        mem_length = strlen(binary_add);
        memory -> numSetIndexBits = calculate_set_index_bits();
        refresh_address(mem_length, memory, binary_add); /*Calls malloc for the memory's set index and tag in this function*/
        ++i;
        free(binary_add);
        free(memory);
    }
}

我突然想到的一件明显的事情是，您为 mem->tag 分配了内存，然后立即开始向其追加内容……但您从未初始化过它（听起来很熟悉？）。这意味着您在传入的 char * 上调用 strlen()，它引用 mem->tag，但它未初始化。这只是自找麻烦，很现实的是，您的 strlen 调用和随后的字符追加，然后是 null 将超出您在堆中的分配。
