捕获CHLD信号可能不起作用，因为如果它们同时到达，您可能会丢失一些信号。

#!/bin/bash

trap 'rm -f $tmpfile' EXIT

tmpfile=$(mktemp)

doCalculations() {
    echo start job $i...
    sleep $((RANDOM % 5)) 
    echo ...end job $i
    exit $((RANDOM % 10))
}

number_of_jobs=10

for i in $( seq 1 $number_of_jobs )
do
    ( trap "echo job$i : exit value : \$? >> $tmpfile" EXIT; doCalculations ) &
done

wait 

i=0
while read res; do
    echo "$res"
    let i++
done < "$tmpfile"

echo $i jobs done !!!

下面是我的版本，适用于多个pid，如果执行时间过长，则记录警告，如果执行时间超过给定值，则停止子进程。

[编辑]我已经在https://github.com/deajan/ofunctions上传了我的WaitForTaskCompletion的新实现，称为ExecTasks。 还有一个用于WaitForTaskCompletion的compat层 (/编辑)

function WaitForTaskCompletion {
    local pids="${1}" # pids to wait for, separated by semi-colon

    local caller_name="${4}" # Who called this function
    local exit_on_error="${5:-false}" # Should the function exit program on subprocess errors       

    Logger "${FUNCNAME[0]} called by [$caller_name]."

    local soft_alert=0 # Does a soft alert need to be triggered, if yes, send an alert once 
    local log_ttime=0 # local time instance for comparaison

        newPidsArray=()
        for pid in "${pidsArray[@]}"; do
            if kill -0 $pid > /dev/null 2>&1; then
                newPidsArray+=($pid)
            else
                wait $pid
                result=$?
                if [ $result -ne 0 ]; then
                    errorcount=$((errorcount+1))
                    Logger "${FUNCNAME[0]} called by [$caller_name] finished monitoring [$pid] with exitcode [$result]."

            fi
        done

        ## Log a standby message every hour
        exec_time=$(($SECONDS - $seconds_begin))
        if [ $((($exec_time + 1) % 3600)) -eq 0 ]; then
            if [ $log_ttime -ne $exec_time ]; then
                log_ttime=$exec_time
                Logger "Current tasks still running with pids [${pidsArray[@]}]."
            fi
        fi

        if [ $exec_time -gt $soft_max_time ]; then
            if [ $soft_alert -eq 0 ] && [ $soft_max_time -ne 0 ]; then
                Logger "Max soft execution time exceeded for task [$caller_name] with pids [${pidsArray[@]}]."

# Just a plain stupid logging function to be replaced by yours
function Logger {

    echo $value

例如，等待所有三个进程完成，如果执行时间超过5秒，则记录警告，如果执行时间超过120秒，则停止所有进程。不要在失败时退出程序。

function something {

    sleep 10 &
    pids="$!"
    sleep 12 &
    pids="$pids;$!"
    sleep 9 &
    pids="$pids;$!"

    WaitForTaskCompletion $pids 5 120 ${FUNCNAME[0]} false
}
# Launch the function
someting
    

等待所有作业并返回最后一个失败作业的退出码。与上面的解决方案不同，这不需要保存pid，也不需要修改脚本的内部循环。走开，等着吧。

function wait_ex {
    # this waits for all jobs and returns the exit code of the last failing job
    ecode=0
    while true; do
        [ -z "$(jobs)" ] && break
        wait -n
        err="$?"
        [ "$err" != "0" ] && ecode="$err"
    done
    return $ecode
}

编辑:修正了脚本运行不存在的命令时可能被愚弄的错误。

我已经尝试过了，并结合了其他例子中最好的部分。该脚本将在任何后台进程退出时执行checkpid函数，并输出退出状态而不诉诸轮询。

#!/bin/bash

set -o monitor

sleep 2 &
sleep 4 && exit 1 &
sleep 6 &

pids=`jobs -p`

checkpids() {
    for pid in $pids; do
        if kill -0 $pid 2>/dev/null; then
            echo $pid is still alive.
        elif wait $pid; then
            echo $pid exited with zero exit status.
        else
            echo $pid exited with non-zero exit status.
        fi
    done
    echo
}

trap checkpids CHLD

wait

wait还(可选地)接受要等待的进程的PID，并且使用$!你会得到最后一个命令的PID在后台启动。 修改循环，将每个衍生子进程的PID存储到一个数组中，然后再次循环等待每个PID。

# run processes and store pids in array
for i in $n_procs; do
    ./procs[${i}] &
    pids[${i}]=$!
done

# wait for all pids
for pid in ${pids[*]}; do
    wait $pid
done

我不相信Bash的内置功能可以做到这一点。

你可以在child退出时得到通知:

#!/bin/sh
set -o monitor        # enable script job control
trap 'echo "child died"' CHLD

然而，在信号处理程序中没有明显的方法来获取子进程的退出状态。

获得子状态通常是底层POSIX api中的等待函数族的工作。不幸的是，Bash对此的支持是有限的——您可以等待一个特定的子进程(并获得其退出状态)，也可以等待所有子进程，但总是得到0结果。

似乎不可能做到的是waitpid(-1)的等效，它会阻塞直到任何子进程返回。
