I build with brew version of clang++ and use adress sanitizer to look for memory leaks and it gives memory leak on every program even programs without any leak.
clang++ -fsanitize=thread main.cpp -g
int main() {
auto *p = new int;
delete p; // no leak
return 0;
}
I have been using the following commands. I expect there shouldn’t be any leaks however it shows the leaks from system libraries couldn't make any sense.
clang++ -fsanitize=address main.cpp -g
export ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=1
export MallocNanoZone=0
./a.out

Same situation here as the OP. I don't know what the root cause is (false positive vs. true memory leak in realizeClassWithoutSwift()), but you can configure LeakSanitizer to suppress detected leaks in the memory leak report:
Create a file lsan.supp with
leak:realizeClassWithoutSwift
and then use it when running your binary:
ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=1 LSAN_OPTIONS=suppressions=lsan.supp my_binary

gRPC v1.30.0
I created a grpc service and tried to run it. The execution goes smooth till the last return statement at server side.
Status theService(ServerContext *context, const Request* req, Response* res)
{
Status status = actualLogic(req,res);
//execution goes fine till here
return status;
}
Status actualLogic(req,res)
{
Response_NestedMsg msg;
msg.set_something(...);
res->mutable_nestedmsg()->CopyFrom(msg);
return Status::OK
}
//server startup code
ServerBuilder builder;
builder.AddListeningPort((address),grpc::InsecureServerCredentials());
builder.RegisterService(&serviceClassObj);
std::unique_ptr<Server> server(builder.BuildAndStart());
server->Wait();
Running this code, I get following runtime error

==14394==ABORTING
None of my code tries to free any pointer and error seems to be coming from some auto generated file only. Please suggest if some more code/details needed.
I briefly checked the error message and code but it looks strange to me because both allocation and destruction were done by C++ new & delete. This is also consistent with your error message.
### Destruction (with operator delete)
#0 0x7fe9d35602c0 in operator delete(void*) (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libasan.so.4+0xe12c0)
### Allocation (with operator new)
#0 0x7fe9d355f448 in operator new(unsigned long) (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libasan.so.4+0xe0448)
This might be caused by other issues like buggy ASAN or customized memory allocator.
I'm linking a library against opencv libraries. I noticed that when I run the unit test executable (using GTest) for that library, that valgrind reports a memory leak/conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value, even when the test doesn't do anything at all (just empty test method).
I traced that issue back to a single line in my CMakeLists.txt - when I remove the linkage against opencv, the memory leak goes away. This is the releavant snippet:
find_package(OpenCV REQUIRED)
set(libImageSources src/SourceImageFile.cpp)
add_library(image SHARED ${libImageSources})
# removing this line fixes the leak:
target_link_libraries(image ${OpenCV_LIBS})
Otherwise when runnig an empty unit test, I get an error like this:

Compiler is clang++ Apple LLVM version 7.3.0 (clang-703.0.31), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1).
Anyone else has had an issue like that? It seems stuff works nontheless, but the error creates noise that I'd rather ignore, I'm not sure if I can fix the root cause.
The issue seems like a false positive reported by valgrind which I can ignore as it's not caused by code.
I tried (at the time of writing) the latest valgrind suppressions file for macOS which didn't work for me, the issue was still reported.
I let valgrind dump the suppressions needed to ignore this error, using a command like:
valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes --error-limit=no --gen-suppressions=all --log-file=l.log ./image_test
And then used a tool to parse the log output (the awk script didn't work for me as it contained a syntax error, I used the perl version) into a suppressions file:
cat l.log | ./parse_valgrind_suppressions.pl > s.supp
Now running the test with the generated suppresions file ignores the memory leak:
valgrind --suppressions=./s.supp ./image_test
I run sudo valgrind --leak-check=full -v --track-origins=yes ./myprogram
The result is:

Part of myprogram.cpp is:

I try to find the uninitialized variable. It seems that it is in:ClsImap::createNewCls(). I used grep to search this function. This function is in libchilkat-e/lib/libchilkat-9.5.0.a. How to fix this problem? It seems that the problem is in the lib. So I can do nothing? Am I right?
Closed. This question needs debugging details. It is not currently accepting answers.
Edit the question to include desired behavior, a specific problem or error, and the shortest code necessary to reproduce the problem. This will help others answer the question.

I've written a program using C++. It runs fine until the end, where it vomits: * Error in `./xwd': free(): invalid pointer: 0x00000000017fd774 *
My first thought was that I was doing something wrong in the destructor, but as the relevant class has no destructor as it doesn't use "new", this was a little confusing to me. This led me to use valgrind for the first time, but that hasn't been terribly illuminating.
Valgrind gives the following complaint:

This points to Lexicon.cpp (http://pastebin.com/Me4AcwXx) ,line 36, which is the second-to-last line of the following code sample:
for(unsigned int letter = 0; letter < next.length(); letter++){
assert(0<=pattern.length()&&pattern.length()<=index_vectors.size());
assert(0<=letter && letter<=index_vectors[pattern.length()].size());
assert(0<=pattern[letter]-'A' && pattern[letter]-'A'<=index_vectors[pattern.length()][letter].size());
index_vectors[next.length()][letter][next[letter]-'A'].push_back(word_list_index);
full_letter_vectors[next.length()].push_back(word_list_index); }
Here, word_list_index is simply an int. What's wrong with this picture? Am I doing something heinous? It all looks pretty normal to me.
Solution:
Thanks to everyone who suggestion I put in asserts (god, grad school has turned me into a TERRIBLE programmer), which led me to catch the problem: one of the words in the dictionary was "MP3" which wasn't entirely alphanumeric. I didn't realize that that kind of error would wait until deconstruction to pop up; I assumed it would cause a segfault. YIKES.
Thanks all!
