C-当调用sigqueue时，Valgrind报告“ Syscall参数指向未初始化的字节”

Question

Got a program where child processes need to send father some signals. Yet, valgrind yells at sigqueue call. Been reading for a time now but I couldn't find an answer.

Here's what child process do:

void cajero(int id){
    FILE *fp, *fp_caja;
    char filename[MAXBUFF], filename_caja[MAXBUFF], price[8];
    float p;
    union sigval val;
    bool booleano;

    ...

    val.sival_int = id;

    while(fgets(price, sizeof(price), fp)){
        p = atof(price);

        ...

        sigqueue(getppid(), SIGMONEY, val); //sigqueue Call

    }
    ...

    sigqueue(getppid(), SIGDONE, val); //sigqueue Call
    fclose(fp);
    exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

And here's valgrind report for one child (it makes two calls in the inner sigqueue and one call in the outer:

Thanks in advance. I'm braindead right now.

EDIT: SIGMONEY and SIGDONE are SIGRTMIN and SIGRTMIN+1 respectively.

You're not initializing the "val" union. Just change the declaration:

union sigval val = {0};
