首页 > 解决方案 > 管道似乎无法在 exec() 覆盖的 fork() 进程之间进行通信

问题描述

我一直在尝试学习如何为 IPC 使用管道,虽然我可以得到一些琐碎的例子来工作,但我无法通过那些非常简单的程序来正确运行。

一方面,我认为我可能有一些竞争条件问题——我计划在管道工作后让信号量工作——所以如果这是问题所在,我很高兴听到它。

另一方面,我只是不知道我的代码在哪里崩溃了......

这个谜题有 3 个部分:

  1. OUTER 进程 - 分叉、执行和设置管道
  2. INNER 进程 - 执行到 fork 并将消息通过管道传递给 OUTER
  3. DISPL 进程 - 执行到 fork 和 printf 从 OUTER 管道传输的消息

这 3 个进程正在分叉和执行正常,我只是从来没有从内部管道中读取任何内容,这会导致消息缓冲区包含一个空字符串。因此,DISPL 从不显示任何内容。

我希望 DISPL 显示每个 9 个字符的块以及包含的内容。没有为漂亮的打印组合读取缓冲区,因为无论如何我什么都得不到。

我的问题是,为什么这些管道不传输任何数据?

与往常一样,我们很乐意接受所有帮助。

解决方案


这是踢自己的时间......你有:

bytesRead = read(pipeFdStr_inner[READ], readBuffer, READ_BLOCK_SIZE);     
while (bytesRead > 0)
{
    readBuffer[bytesRead] = '\0';
    strcat(readBuffer, messBuffer);
    printf("Outer: Read %li bytes\n", bytesRead);
    printf("Outer: Message Buffer: %s\n", readBuffer);
    bytesRead = read(pipeFdStr_inner[READ], readBuffer, READ_BLOCK_SIZE);
}
close(pipeFdStr_inner[READ]);
write(pipeFdStr_displ[WRITE], messBuffer, strlen(messBuffer));

您正在读取和写入的“文件描述符”是字符串的第一个字符,它会自动转换为int. 你需要使用:

bytesRead = read(pfdInnerPipe[READ], readBuffer, READ_BLOCK_SIZE);     
while (bytesRead > 0)
{
    readBuffer[bytesRead] = '\0';
    strcat(readBuffer, messBuffer);
    printf("Outer: Read %li bytes\n", bytesRead);
    printf("Outer: Message Buffer: %s\n", readBuffer);
    bytesRead = read(pfdInnerPipe[READ], readBuffer, READ_BLOCK_SIZE);
}
close(pfdInnerPipe[READ]);
write(pfdDisplPipe[WRITE], messBuffer, strlen(messBuffer));

通过错误检查系统调用发现了问题。检查read()报告:

outer: 2020-09-30 23:15:48.086 - pid=36674: failed to read from pipe
error (9) Bad file descriptor

仔细查看文件描述符并发现它不是文件描述符并不难。

我在 GitHub 上的 SOQ(堆栈溢出问题)存储库中使用了一些代码作为文件stderr.csrc /libsoq子目录。合理的完全检查版本是这样的,我也进行了错误检查,类似地。请注意,我更改了程序名称,删除了前缀和后缀。此外,在退出之前等待其两个孩子都死了。stderr.houter.cinner.cdispl.cpipe_.exeouter.c
