The stack trace would be really helpful. Also, please be sure to precede your code example with three backticks (`) on the line above the example, and three on the line below.

Awesome, and the code you posted earlier, is that the context for /opt/ros/kinetic/include/realtime_tools/realtime_publisher.h:84?

Also, what is the rest of the Valgrind output? Any more details? Segfaults have many causes, so knowing which one was detected helps narrow down the problem.

The code I posted earlier is the context for frame 1&2. Actually this is the gdb output which I posted.

Well I just ran the same in valgrind and it gave:-

Speaking of any more details, I have Ubuntu xenial and trying to use my "launch file" to launch my robotic model in gazebo7(robotic simulation software) and this simulation software is giving segmentation fault on running my launch file. Since this launch file is readymade from Github I think probably there is no error in that launch file.

What do you think is causing the error based on my provided information?

o.O

Wow, I've never seen this one before. The segfault is occurring, but Valgrind doesn't seem to be catching it.

I'm curious how you're invoking Valgrind. Usually I'd just pass the executable right to it:

$ valgrind roslaunch pr2_description pr2.launch

I invoked valgrind by specifying it as an option in the launch file itself and the same way i invoked gdb.

<node name="gazebo" pkg="gazebo_ros"  type="$(arg script_type)" respawn="$(arg respawn_gazebo)" output="$(arg output)" launch-prefix="valgrind"

I am very stressed with this problem but i don't want to give up.
What do you suggest for this problem?

You know, I'd be really curious to know what would happen if you ran the launch file itself through Valgrind! If you look at the output from a moment ago, there's quite a lot that is occuring outside of Valgrind (all the lines not preceded with ==nnnnn== (where nnnnn is some number). The segfault at the end appears to be occuring outside of that context as well. That leads me to believe the segfault might actually be within the launch file.

I just ran it through valgrind

Yikes. Could you delete that comment chain and put it in a Gist or bpaste.net or some such? It'll be easier to read.

In any case, that confirmed my suspicion; the launcher is the problem. it's not memory pure at all.

So this was the whole output I got , sorry for uploading this in parts(character limitation).

I hope this gives something useful to track down the issue.

I apologise for making such a long comment chain.
I have now made a gist of running the launch file through valgrind in

gist.github.com/rishabh900/41fd6df...

And the above comment is the output after i terminated the process manually.
So what do you think of now?

Did you write the launcher script, or is that third-party? It's clearly written in Python, and the issue is definitely there. I just can't narrow in on the specific issue, because the memory issues are being thrown by the interpreter (e.g. at 0x41964F: PyObject_Free (in /usr/bin/python2.7)). That indicates that something odd has been done within the Python code, but I won't be able to diagnose this further without really fully understanding the launcher's source code, and I'm afraid I don't have time to learn it.

If this is third-party code, open an issue against the launcher project, and include the above output of Valgrind.
