怎么用守护进程

1. 守护进程是什么

Linux Daemon (守护进程) 是运行在后台的一种特殊进程. 它独立于控制终端并且周期性地执行某种任务或等待处理

某些发生的事件. 不依赖用户输入就能提供某种服务.

Linux 系统中大多数服务都是通过守护进程实现的. 常见的守护进程包括系统日志进程 syslogd, Web 服务器 httpd ,

MySQL 数据库服务器 mysqld 等. 守护进程的命名我们通常约定以 d 结尾.

2. 怎么用守护进程

2.1 有趣小例子

#include #include #include #include //// gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wextra -o demo demo.c//intmain(void) {

    // 创建守护进程if(daemon(0,0)) {

        perror("daemon error");

        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);

    }

    // 守护进程 构建文本任务FILE * txt = fopen("demo.log","w");

    if (txt) {

        fprintf(txt, "%ld, hello, 世界", time(NULL));

        fclose(txt);

    }

    exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);

}

结果出人意料呢? daemon(0, 0) ~ 通过 GNU C 库 提供的 api, 轻巧的创建了守护进程.

有心同行也可以将上面素材当做守护进程面试题, 不需要死记硬背, 简单交流下就可以考察出候选人是否严谨和用心.

DAEMON(3)                  Linux Programmer's Manual                DAEMON(3)

NAME

      daemon - run in the background

SYNOPSIS

      #include       int daemon(int nochdir, int noclose);

  Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

      daemon():

          Since glibc 2.21:

              _DEFAULT_SOURCE

          In glibc 2.19 and 2.20:

              _DEFAULT_SOURCE || (_XOPEN_SOURCE && _XOPEN_SOURCE < 500)

          Up to and including glibc 2.19:

              _BSD_SOURCE || (_XOPEN_SOURCE && _XOPEN_SOURCE < 500)

DESCRIPTION

      The daemon() function is for programs wishing to detach themselves from

      the controlling terminal and run in the background as system daemons.

      If nochdir is zero, daemon()  changes  the  process's  current  working

      directory  to  the root directory ("/"); otherwise, the current working

      directory is left unchanged.

      If noclose is zero, daemon() redirects standard input, standard  output

      and  standard  error  to  /dev/null;  otherwise, no changes are made to

      these file descriptors.

RETURN VALUE

      (This function forks, and if the fork(2)  succeeds,  the  parent  calls

      _exit(2),  so that further errors are seen by the child only.)  On suc‐

      cess daemon() returns zero.  If an error occurs,  daemon()  returns  -1

      and  sets errno to any of the errors specified for the fork(2) and set‐

      sid(2).

ATTRIBUTES

      For  an  explanation  of  the  terms  used  in  this  section,  see

      attributes(7).

      ┌──────────┬───────────────┬─────────┐

      │Interface │ Attribute    │ Value  │

      ├──────────┼───────────────┼─────────┤

      │daemon()  │ Thread safety │ MT-Safe │

      └──────────┴───────────────┴─────────┘

CONFORMING TO

      Not  in POSIX.1.  A similar function appears on the BSDs.  The daemon()

      function first appeared in 4.4BSD.

NOTES

      The glibc implementation can also return -1 when /dev/null  exists  but

      is  not  a  character device with the expected major and minor numbers.

      In this case, errno need not be set.

BUGS

      The GNU C library implementation of this function was taken  from  BSD,

      and  does  not  employ  the  double-fork technique (i.e., fork(2), set‐

      sid(2), fork(2)) that is necessary to ensure that the resulting  daemon

      process  is  not  a session leader.  Instead, the resulting daemon is a

      session leader.  On systems  that  follow  System  V  semantics  (e.g.,

      Linux),  this  means  that  if  the daemon opens a terminal that is not

      already a controlling terminal for another session, then that  terminal

      will inadvertently become the controlling terminal for the daemon.

NAME

      daemon - 运行在后台

SYNOPSIS

      #include       int daemon(int nochdir, int noclose);

DESCRIPTION

        daemon() 函数希望运行程序脱离控制终端, 作为系统守护进程在后台运行.

        如果 nochdir 是 0, daemon() 将更改当前进程工作目录到 "/" 根目录. 否则保持

        不变.

        如果 noclose 是 0, deamon() 将重定向 STDIN_FILENO 标准输入, STDOUT_FILENO

        标准输出, STDERR_FILENO 标准错误 到 /dev/null, 否则保持不变.

RETURN VALUE

        函数内部会执行 fork, 如果 fork 成功, 父进程会调用 _exit 退出. 执行成功返回 0.

        发生错误时候将返回 -1, errno 的设置依赖 fork(), setsid(), daemon() 源码.

3.2 daemon.c 解析

30-32 行 SCCS ID (SCCS 代表源代码控制系统)

66 行 和 88 行 类似 open 和 close

正在上传... 取消

// sysdeps/generic/not-cancel.h/* By default we have none.  Map the name to the normal functions.  */#define__open_nocancel(...) \  __open (__VA_ARGS__)#define__close_nocancel(fd) \  __close (fd)

正在上传... 取消

不过 88 行不够严禁, 因为当 fd == -1 时候, 会 __close_nocancel_nostatus (-1) 会引发一个 @errno{EBADF, 9, Bad file descriptor}.

67 - 73 行 (__builtin_expect (EXP, N) 表达意思是告诉编译器预测 EXP 表试式 == 常量 N 概率很大,  返回值是 EXP )  大致

意思获取文件属性, 并且不是字节设备. makedev 用于构建设备 id.

75-77 三行, 将 STDIN_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO, STDERR_FILENO 句柄指向 fd 句柄所指向的 dev/null 文件.

78-79 行, 很漂亮很严谨功力很厚.

BUGS

        GNUC 库 这个 daemon() 函数的实现取自 BSD 源码. 没有采用两次 double fork

        设置 sid 机制, 来确保生成的守护进程不是会话负责人. 相反, 这里生成的守护

        进程是会话负责人 (session leader). 在遵循 System V 语义系统上, 创建的守

        护进程在重新打开终端时候, 新开终端会自动成为守护进程的控制终端.
