每当我使用wait函数时,我的代码在open()上暂停,没有它,程序就不起作用了。没有错误代码,但我想知道什么是错的。
代码最终将是controller.c将打开c1,c2,c3。它将等待c1哪个将获得输入并将其放入管道然后将转到c2将打印它,然后c3将以不同的格式打印它。
int main(int ac, char**av)
{
int fd;
int test;
char * myfifo = "/tmp/myfifo";
unlink(myfifo); //makes sure no fifo already exists
/* create the FIFO (named pipe) */
if((mkfifo(myfifo, 0666)) <0)
perror("MKFIFO: ");
int statval;
pid_t pid1 = fork(); //creates a process for c1 to run in
wait(&statval);
if ( pid1 == 0) //makes sure to only run the program in the child process
{
printf("Opening c1\n");
int x = execvp("./c1",av); //Runs the other file based on the array
if (x == -1)
exit (1);
perror("Error"); //used for error reporting
printf("Closing c1\n");
exit(0); //ends process when finished
}
if (WIFEXITED(statval)) //if there is an exit code
printf("\nChilds exit code %d\n", WEXITSTATUS(statval));//prints the exit status of the child process
pid_t pid2 = fork(); //creates a process for c2 to run in
wait(&statval);
if ( pid2 == 0) //makes sure to only run the program in the child process
{
printf("Opening c2\n");
int x = execvp("./c2",av); //Runs the other file based on the array
if (x == -1)
exit (1);
perror("Error"); //used for error reporting
exit(0); //ends process when finished
}
if (WIFEXITED(statval)) //if there is an exit code
printf("\nChilds exit code %d\n", WEXITSTATUS(statval));//prints the exit status of the child process
unlink(myfifo);
C1:
printf("TEST1\n");
char *line = NULL;
size_t len = 0;
ssize_t read;
int fd;
char * myfifo = "/tmp/myfifo";
char buf[BUFSIZE];
fd = open(myfifo, O_WRONLY);
if (fd < 0)
perror("OPEN: ");
//while (1) {
printf("Enter a line of text\n");
//scanf("%s", buf);
if ((strcmp(line,"-999"))==0){
printf("TEST");
//break;
}
//write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
write(fd, "hi", sizeof("hi"));
//}
close(fd);
unlink(myfifo);
return 0;
C2:
int fd;
char * myfifo = "/tmp/myfifo";
char buf[BUFSIZE];
/* open, read, and display the message from the FIFO */
fd = open(myfifo, O_RDONLY);
read(fd, buf, BUFSIZE);
printf("Received: %s\n", buf);
close(fd);
return 0;
程序将打开c1,打印TEST,然后在我手动退出之前不执行任何操作。

第一个分叉后,父母和孩子wait()
。孩子的呼叫失败,因为它没有等待的孩子,但你忽略了结果。然后,孩子执行程序c1
,(假设执行成功)依次打开FIFO进行写入。这个阻止直到FIFO的另一端被打开,但是程序不会打开另一端,因为父进程正在等待子进程在进行之前退出。你已经造成了僵局。
两个孩子都不能通过打开FIFO直到另一个(或其他程序)打开FIFO的另一端,因此父母必须在等待任何一个孩子之前分叉两个孩子。此外,对于wait()
的孩子来说,这是毫无意义的,尽管他们对该功能的调用应该很快失败。
