问题描述

我编写了一个 Python 类来并行绘制 pylot。它在默认启动方法是 fork 的 Linux 上运行良好,但是当我在 Windows 上尝试它时遇到了问题(可以使用 spawn 启动方法在 Linux 上重现 - 请参见下面的代码)。我总是最终得到这个错误:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 50, in <module>
    test()
  File "test.py", line 7, in test
    asyncPlotter.saveLinePlotVec3("test")

    args=(test, ))

我希望有一种方法可以使此代码适用于 Windows。这里是 Linux 和 Windows 上可用的不同启动方法的链接:https ://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#contexts-and-start-methods

import multiprocessing as mp
def test():

    manager = mp.Manager()
    asyncPlotter = AsyncPlotter(manager.Value('i', 0))

    asyncPlotter.saveLinePlotVec3("test")
    asyncPlotter.saveLinePlotVec3("test")

    asyncPlotter.join()


class AsyncPlotter():

    def __init__(self, nc, processes=mp.cpu_count()):

        self.nc = nc
        self.pids = []
        self.processes = processes


    def linePlotVec3(self, nc, processes, test):

        self.waitOnPool(nc, processes)

        print(test)

        nc.value -= 1


    def waitOnPool(self, nc, processes):

        while nc.value >= processes:
            time.sleep(0.1)
        nc.value += 1


    def process(self, target, args):

        ctx = mp.get_context('spawn') 
        p = ctx.Process(target=target, args=args)
        p.start()
        self.pids.append(p)


    def saveLinePlotVec3(self, test):

        self.process(target=self.linePlotVec3,
                       args=(self.nc, self.processes, test))


    def join(self):
        for p in self.pids:
            p.join()


if __name__=='__main__':
    test()

解决方案


使用spawnstart 方法时,Process对象本身被腌制以供子进程使用。在您的代码中,target=target参数是AsyncPlotter. 看起来整个asyncPlotter实例也必须被腌制才能工作,其中包括self.manager显然不想被腌制。

简而言之,保持ManagerAsyncPlotter. 这适用于我的 macOS 系统:

def test():
    manager = mp.Manager()
    asyncPlotter = AsyncPlotter(manager.Value('i', 0))
    ...

此外,正如您在评论中指出的那样,asyncPlotter重用时不起作用。我不知道细节,但看起来它与如何Value跨进程共享对象有关。该test功能需要像:

def test():
    manager = mp.Manager()
    nc = manager.Value('i', 0)

    asyncPlotter1 = AsyncPlotter(nc)
    asyncPlotter1.saveLinePlotVec3("test 1")
    asyncPlotter2 = AsyncPlotter(nc)
    asyncPlotter2.saveLinePlotVec3("test 2")

    asyncPlotter1.join()
    asyncPlotter2.join()

总而言之,您可能希望重组代码并使用进程池。它已经处理了AsyncPlotter正在做的事情cpu_count和并行执行:

from multiprocessing import Pool, set_start_method
from random import random
import time

def linePlotVec3(test):
    time.sleep(random())
    print("test", test)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    set_start_method("spawn")
    with Pool() as pool:
        pool.map(linePlotVec3, range(20))

或者您可以使用 aProcessPoolExecutor来做几乎相同的事情。此示例一次启动一个任务,而不是映射到列表:

from concurrent.futures import ProcessPoolExecutor
import multiprocessing as mp
import time
from random import random

def work(i):
    r = random()
    print("work", i, r)
    time.sleep(r)

def main():
    ctx = mp.get_context("spawn")
    with ProcessPoolExecutor(mp_context=ctx) as pool:
        for i in range(20):
            pool.submit(work, i)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
