TTF_RenderText_Solid causes SIGBUS

Question

I have this code, which should load a font using SDL2_ttf and draw a text onto the screen:

Structs declaration:

typedef struct {
    SDL_Window* win;
    SDL_Event* e;

    SDL_Renderer* renderer;
} SL_Window;

typedef struct {
    TTF_Font* font;
    char* file;
    size_t size;
} SL_Font;

typedef struct {
    SL_Font* font;
    char* text;
    SDL_Renderer* renderer;
    SDL_Texture* texture;

    SDL_Rect rect;

    SDL_Color color;
} SL_Text;

Text rendering header:

SL_Font* SL_loadFont(const char* file, int size) {
    SL_Font* font = (SL_Font*)SL_malloc(sizeof(SL_Font));

    font->font = TTF_OpenFont(file, size);
    if (!font->font) {
        SL_log(SL_LOG_ERROR, "Error loading font \"%s\": %s", file, TTF_GetError());
        SL_free(font);
        return NULL;
    }

    size_t __size = strlen(file) + 1;

    font->file = (char*)malloc(__size);
    strncpy(font->file, file, __size);
}
SL_Text* SL_createText(SL_Window* window, SL_Font* font) {
    SL_Text* text = (SL_Text*)SL_malloc(sizeof(SL_Text));
    text->font = font;
    text->renderer = window->renderer;

    text->texture = NULL;

    text->color.r = 0;
    text->color.g = 0;
    text->color.b = 0;
    text->color.a = 255;

    text->rect.x = 0;
    text->rect.y = 0;
    text->rect.w = 1000;
    text->rect.h = 1000;
}

void SL_setTextString(SL_Text* text, const char* string) {
    size_t __size = strlen(string) + 1;
    text->text = (char*)SL_malloc(__size);

    strncpy(text->text, string, __size);

    SDL_Surface* surface = TTF_RenderText_Solid(text->font->font, text->text, text->color);

    if (text->texture) SDL_DestroyTexture(text->texture);
    text->texture = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(text->renderer, surface);
    SDL_FreeSurface(surface);
}

void SL_windowDrawText(SL_Window* window, SL_Text* text) {
    SDL_RenderCopy(window->renderer, text->texture, NULL, &text->rect);
}

...

And main:

...
SL_Font* font = SL_loadFont("res/test_font.ttf", 24);
if (!font) return -1;
SL_Text* text = SL_createText(window, font);
SL_setTextString(text, "test text");
...

But it gives me SIGBUS whenever I try to call SL_setTextString(SL_Text* text, const char* string) function. It appears on the line SDL_Surface* surface = TTF_RenderText_Solid(text->font->font, text->text, text->color).

GDB backtrace:

And by the way, a list of common SIGBUS causes would be much appreciated.

As @keltar said, my problem was once again cause by my inattention and also C's way of handling variables, which are without proper initialization can have absolutely random values, which means that unset pointers aren't necessarily NULL as well.
