为什么我不能使用fork()使用系统V消息队列?

我这里有一个程序:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/ipc.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/msg.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <errno.h>

#include "linkedlist.h"
#include "globals.h"
#include "card.h"
#include "logging.h"
#include "stack.h"
#include "servers.h"
#include "player.h"

#define VERSION "0.1"

#define ERR -1

/*
 * Main function runs, loads 5 named table objects. For each table
 * created a fork is created for that specific table object that
 * allows each table to run independently.
 *
 * Usernames details are also created and prepared. These are hardcoded
 * until I add database logic later.
 *
 * After the tables are prepared, the main function starts a server
 * listening thread that waits for UNIX sockets to connect to it. When
 * they arrive it spawns a handling thread that does a quick login check
 * and then asks the user which of the named tables they want to play on
 *
 * The socket information is then connected to the table, so the table can
 * then communicate with user. When the table is full, the table algorithm
 * is responcible for basically looping contineously, creating new "games"
 * until only one player is left. He is the winner. When he wins, the table
 * exits.
 *
 * the game loop does all the real work for the texas holdem game, hosting
 * rounds of bets, dealing cards etc.

void table_process(int tables_id);

  while (players_added > 0)
  {
    logging_info("still waiting for %i players to join %s with queue id %i", players_added, table_names[table_id], table_id + MSG_QUEUE_OFFSET);


    //THIS DOESN'T WORK!!!! IT DOESN'T WAKE UP
    if (msgrcv(msg_queue, &p, sizeof(player), table_id + MSG_QUEUE_OFFSET, 0) == -1)
    {

    logging_debug("player = %s, %s", p->name, p->password);

    players_added--;
  }

  logging_info("table %s ready to start!!!!!", table_names[table_id]);
}

void main_game_loop(void)
{
  logging_debug("main_game_loop");
}

程序应该启动并分成4个线程。前三个线程调用msgget()来创建系统V消息队列。

然后他们都调用msgrcv()并等待不同的id发生。

第四个线程侦听连接客户端,然后调用msgsnd()。出于某种原因,没有一个等待消息的分叉再次醒来。

  1. 我确定消息队列是正确的。

  2. 我在msgsrcv之前有一个print语句,所以我可以看到fork发生了正确的每个语句。之后还有一个打印声明,所以我可以看到代码没有通过它。

  3. 我从命令提示符运行了ipcs。

  4. 肯定会创建一个消息队列,并且其中有一条消息。

  5. 如果我将msgrcv更改为“0”,那么其中一个线程将被唤醒,但这不是我想要的行为。

  6. msgget()不会抛出错误。

  7. msgsnd()没有抛出错误。

  8. 我很肯定结构中的id是正确的。

  9. 任何想法我做错了什么?

答案 0 :(得分:2)

至少有一件事是错的:你已经将“p”声明为指向玩家的指针,并且在将其传递给msgrcv时再次获取其地址。更重要的是,你传递的指针大小可能太大(即sizeof(播放器)&gt; sizeof(播放器*))。堆栈腐败等待发生。

然后,尝试使用strace(在Linux上;在Solaris上使用truss)来实时查看正在发生的事情。
