我必须将N个客户端进程与一个服务器同步。这些进程由一个main函数分叉，我在其中声明了3个信号量。我决定使用POSIX信号量，但我不知道如何在这些进程之间共享它们。我认为共享内存应该可以正常工作，但我有一些问题：
sizeof(sem_t)的{{1}}字段中使用size_t，以便准确分配我需要的空间吗？ 答案 0 :(得分：46)
分享指定的POSIX信号量
选择信号量的名称
#define SNAME "/mysem"
在创建它们的过程中使用sem_open和O_CREAT
sem_t *sem = sem_open(SNAME, O_CREAT, 0644, 3); /* Initial value is 3. */
在其他进程中打开信号量
sem_t *sem = sem_open(SEM_NAME, 0); /* Open a preexisting semaphore. */
如果你坚持使用共享内存，那肯定是可能的。
int fd = shm_open("shmname", O_CREAT, O_RDWR);
ftruncate(fd, sizeof(sem_t));
sem_t *sem = mmap(NULL, sizeof(sem_t), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
sem_init(sem, 1, 1);
我没有对上面进行测试，所以它可能完全是疯狂的。

我编写了一个示例应用程序，其中父（生产者）生成N个子（消费者）线程，并使用全局数组在它们之间传递数据。全局数组是循环存储器，当数据写入数组时受到保护。

答案 2 :(得分：2)
我真的怀疑共享内存方法是否会起作用。
AFAIK信号量实际上只是一个句柄，对于打开它的过程有效。真正的信号量信息位于内核内存中。
因此在其他过程中使用相同的句柄值是行不通的。
答案 3 :(得分：1)
是的，我们可以在两个进程之间使用命名信号量。 我们可以打开一个文件。
snprintf(sem_open_file, 128, "/sem_16");
ret_value = sem_open((const char *)sem_open_file, 0, 0, 0);
if (ret_value == SEM_FAILED) {
/*
* No such file or directory
*/
if (errno == ENOENT) {
ret_value = sem_open((const char *)sem_open_file,
O_CREAT | O_EXCL, 0777, 1);
}
}
其他过程可以使用它。
