我有以下代码

#!/bin/env python
# http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32192938/order-of-subprocesses-execution-and-its-impact-on-operations-atomicity

from multiprocessing import Process
from multiprocessing import Queue
import time
import os

# Define an output queue
output = Queue()

# define a example function
def f(x, output):

    time.sleep(.5)
    ppid = os.getppid()   # PPID
    pid  = os.getpid()     # PID
    # very computing intensive operation
    result = 10*x
    print "(%s, %s, %s)" % (pp, p, result)
    time.sleep(.5)
    # store result as tuple
    result = (ppid, pid, result)
    output.put(result)
    # return result


def queue_size(queue):
    size = int(queue.qsize())
    print size

# Print parent pid
print "Parent pid: %s" % os.getpid()

# Setup a list of processes that we want to run
processes = [Process(target=f, args=(x, output)) for x in range(1,11)]

# Run processes
for p in processes:
    p.start()

# Process has no close attribute
# for p in processes:
#     p.close()

# Exit the completed processes
for p in processes:
    p.join()


# Get process results from the output queue
print "Order of result might be different from order of print"
print "See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32192938/order-of-subprocesses-execution-and-its-impact-on-operations-atomicity"
print ""
results = [output.get() for p in processes]
print(results)

我想用多个语句替换print "(%s, %s, %s)" % (pp, p, result),如下所示:

print "ppid: %s" % ppid
print "pid:  %s" % pid
print "result: %s" % result
print "#####################"

为此,我选择了信号量以确保此输出是原子的。这是修改后的版本:

#!/bin/env python
# http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32192938/order-of-subprocesses-execution-and-its-impact-on-operations-atomicity

from multiprocessing import Process
from multiprocessing import Queue
import threading
import time
import os

max_threads = 1
semaphore = threading.BoundedSemaphore(max_threads)

# Define an output queue
output = Queue()

# define a example function
def f(x, output):

    time.sleep(.5)
    ppid = os.getppid()   # PPID
    pid  = os.getpid()     # PID
    # very computing intensive operation
    result = 10*x

    # print "(%s, %s, %s)" % (pp, p, result)
    semaphore.acquire()
    print "ppid: %s" % ppid
    print "pid:  %s" % pid
    print "result: %s" % result
    print "#####################"
    semaphore.release()

    time.sleep(.5)
    # store result as tuple
    result = (ppid, pid, result)
    output.put(result)
    # return result


def queue_size(queue):
    size = int(queue.qsize())
    print size

# Print parent pid
print "Parent pid: %s" % os.getpid()

# Setup a list of processes that we want to run
processes = [Process(target=f, args=(x, output)) for x in range(1,11)]

# Run processes
for p in processes:
    p.start()

# Process has no close attribute
# for p in processes:
#     p.close()

# Exit the completed processes
for p in processes:
    p.join()


# Get process results from the output queue
print "Order of result might be different from order of print"
print "See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32192938/order-of-subprocesses-execution-and-its-impact-on-operations-atomicity"
print ""
results = [output.get() for p in processes]
print(results)

但似乎那些操作不是原子的(PID 10269和PID 10270),信号量没有帮助,这里是输出:

Parent pid: 10260
ppid: 10260
pid:  10264
result: 40

[(10260, 10264, 40), (10260, 10263, 30), (10260, 10265, 50), (10260, 10267, 70), (10260, 10262, 20), (10260, 10268, 80), (10260, 10261, 10), (10260, 10270, 100), (10260, 10269, 90), (10260, 10266, 60)]

为什么?

答案 0 :(得分:2)

您正在使用进程运行f,但您正在尝试使用线程信号量进行同步。您在这里混合不兼容的多任务模型。正如您在程序中使用的那样,进程在不同的内存空间中运行并具有独立的程序计数器,这意味着您无法像在单个程序中运行那样同步它们。线程在单个程序,共享内存中运行它们。

我的意思是,processes中的每个流程都将作为独立程序运行。您可以尝试使用multiprocessing.Lock,但我认为仅锁定独立程序以打印调试输出是没有意义的。

相反,我建议您更改打印声明:

print("ppid: {}\n"
      "pid:  {}\n"
      "result: \n"
      "#####################".format(ppid, pid, result))

请注意,您可以放置​​分隔的字符串,python解释器可以自动加入它们。同时引入\n插入换行符。我也改为print()函数和format(),不推荐使用%

使用这种方法,您混合输出的可能性较小,但仍可能发生。如果不够好,请使用multiprocessing.Lock而不是threading.Lock,不需要进一步更改代码。
