Malloc在Linux环境中杀死子进程

我正在编写用于通过C中的进程和命名管道进行客户端服务器通信的代码。问题是，当我在远程Linux机器上编译代码时，它会杀死我的子进程，而不会打印任何内容。

我的子进程停止的行是：（* c）= malloc（sizeof（channel））;

我不会使用太多内存来耗尽ram，并且代码在cygwin环境中运行良好！

你有解决的办法吗？

int create_cha(channel **c,int id,char *n){
 printf("here\n");
 (*c)=malloc(sizeof(channel)); //(channel*)
 if (*c==NULL)
 {
 printf("malloc error\n");
 return 1;
 } 

 printf("here\n");
 (*c)->next=NULL;
 printf("here\n");
 (*c)->ch_id=id;
 printf("here\n");
 (*c)->num_messages=0;
 strcpy((*c)->name,n);
 printf("here\n");
 (*c)->m=NULL;
 return 0;
}
