GDB调试多进程的fork+exec

通过一个实例来观察协同进程，在程序中创建了两个管道， 父、子进程各自关闭它们不需要使用的端口。

两个管道一个用作协同进程的标准输入，另一个用作它的标准输出、子进程在调用dup2后使管道描述符移至其标准输入和标准输出， 然后调用execl。

 

#include <apue.h>int main(void){int n, int1, int2;charline[MAXLINE];while((n = read(STDIN_FILENO, line, MAXLINE)) > 0){line[n] = 0;/*null terminate*/if(sscanf(line, "%d%d", &int1, &int2) == 2){sprintf(line, "%d\n", int1 + int2);n = strlen(line);if(write(STDOUT_FILENO, line, n) != n)err_sys("write error");}else{if(write(STDOUT_FILENO,"invalid args\n", 13) != 13)err_sys("write error");}}exit(0);}

#include <apue.h>static void sig_pipe(int);/*our signal handler*/int main(void){int n, fd1[2], fd2[2];pid_t pid;charline[MAXLINE];if(signal(SIGPIPE, sig_pipe) == SIG_ERR)err_sys("signal error");if(pipe(fd1) < 0 || pipe(fd2) < 0)err_sys("pipe error");if((pid = fork()) < 0){err_sys("fork error");}else if(pid > 0)//parent{close(fd1[0]);close(fd2[1]);while(fgets(line, MAXLINE, stdin) != NULL){n = strlen(line);if(write(fd1[1], line, n) != n)err_sys("write error to pipe");if((n = read(fd2[0], line, MAXLINE)) < 0)err_sys("read error from pipe");if(n == 0){err_msg("child closed pipe");break;}line[n] = 0;/*null terminate*/if(fputs(line, stdout) == EOF)err_sys("fputs error");}if(ferror(stdin))err_sys("fgets error on stdin");exit(0);}else//child{close(fd1[1]);close(fd2[0]);if(fd1[0] != STDIN_FILENO){if(dup2(fd1[0],STDIN_FILENO) != STDIN_FILENO)err_sys("dup2 error to stdin");close(fd1[0]);}if(fd2[1] != STDOUT_FILENO){if(dup2(fd2[1], STDOUT_FILENO) != STDOUT_FILENO)err_sys("dup2 error to stdout");close(fd2[1]);}if(execl("./add2", "add2", (char *)0) < 0)err_sys("execl error");}exit(0);}static void sig_pipe(int signo){printf("SIGPIPE caught\n");exit(1);}
