今天码代码的时候，出现了一个诡异的问题：
首先：函数 pkt_analyzer 返回了一个 PktUnit类型的指针。我先把端点跑到puu赋值后的下一句，查看puu里面的内容，发现是正确的： payload_len = 7，pkt_len = 35
接着我再向下跑一步，发现puu内容就不对了： payload_len = 1514280713 ;pkt_len = 17 整个就不对了……
找了一个多小时，没发现问题出在哪儿！后来突然想到，可能是函数返回的时候出的问题，不能光看函数的立即返回结果！
果然，这是一个属于：使用指向局部变量的指针作为函数返回值的例子！
pointer * Func{
return pointer = & iTemp;
}
这样做会造成非常严重的后果！！！！
千万不要企图返回局变量堆栈上的指针，返回局部栈上的指针，你的指针就指向了该局部变量iTemp的地址，由于局部栈会在函数返回的时刻清栈，然而你的指针所指向的地址还是不变的。也就是说 pointer还是指向iTemp原来的那块内存，但是接着执行下来，那块内存的内容完全是不确定的！所以，导致你下次使用 函数返回指针 ret_pointer = Func(); ret_pointer的内容完全不确定，会产生灾难性后果！！
先给出问题代码：

问题出在这个地方：
这里使用了指向局部变量的指针，并作为函数的返回指针。

上面修改的地方，我定义了一个指针，并且动态申请了空间后面就对了。其思想是基于：
因为函数中的局部变量在函数调用结束后就会被释放；这句话是对的，局部变量超出其作用域后就会被释放掉
所以如果你在函数内部定义一个指针，并申请了空间；这句不怎么对，因为只查动态申请的内存都是在堆中申请，不会被释放掉
但是，如果是使用字符串指针形式，char *str = "hello world"这个叫字符串字面常量。储存在静态区，是只读！！！！的所以可以返回
#include<stdio.h> char *returnstr() { char *str="Hello!World!"; printf("In returnstr, addr of str: %p ", str); return str; //"Hello!world! "; } int main() { char *str=returnstr(); printf("In main, addr of str: %p ", str); printf("%s ", str); return 0; }
函数中的变量存储空间是在栈上分配的，函数结束时自动释放，所以不能返回这样的变量，即使你返回了，就像7楼所说的，也得到了正确的值，请不要高兴，这是因为那块内存还没有被占用，值还没有改变，所以你得到了正确的值，有一种情况是可以返回局部指针的，就是在堆上动态分配存储空间，这些空间在函数结束时不会自动释放，但是需要自己释放，所以得记住，要是忘记了就漏掉了。
