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="${1}" # pids to wait for, separated by semi-colon
    local soft_max_time="${2}" # If execution takes longer than $soft_max_time seconds, will log a warning, unless $soft_max_time equals 0.
    local hard_max_time="${3}" # If execution takes longer than $hard_max_time seconds, will stop execution, unless $hard_max_time equals 0.
    local caller_name="${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

    local seconds_begin=$SECONDS # Seconds since the beginning of the script
    local exec_time=0 # Seconds since the beginning of this function

    local retval=0 # return value of monitored pid process
    local errorcount=0 # Number of pids that finished with errors

    local pidCount # number of given pids

    IFS=';' read -a pidsArray <<< "$pids"
    pidCount=${#pidsArray[@]}

    while [ ${#pidsArray[@]} -gt 0 ]; do
        newPidsArray=()
        for pid in "${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
            fi

        ## Log a standby message every hour

                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 {
    local value="${1}"

    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
    

如果您有bash 4.2或更高版本可用，以下内容可能对您有用。它使用关联数组存储任务名称及其“代码”，以及任务名称及其pid。我还内置了一个简单的速率限制方法，如果你的任务消耗了大量CPU或I/O时间，你想限制并发任务的数量，这个方法可能会派上用场。

脚本在第一个循环中启动所有任务，在第二个循环中使用结果。

对于简单的情况，这有点过分，但它允许非常简洁的东西。例如，可以将每个任务的错误消息存储在另一个关联数组中，并在一切都解决后打印它们。

#! /bin/bash

main () {
    local -A pids=()
    local -A tasks=([task1]="echo 1"
                    [task2]="echo 2"
                    [task3]="echo 3"
                    [task4]="false"
                    [task5]="echo 5"
                    [task6]="false")
    local max_concurrent_tasks=2

    for key in "${!tasks[@]}"; do
        while [ $(jobs 2>&1 | grep -c Running) -ge "$max_concurrent_tasks" ]; do
            sleep 1 # gnu sleep allows floating point here...
        done
        ${tasks[$key]} &
        pids+=(["$key"]="$!")
    done

    errors=0
    for key in "${!tasks[@]}"; do
        pid=${pids[$key]}
        local cur_ret=0
        if [ -z "$pid" ]; then
            echo "No Job ID known for the $key process" # should never happen
            cur_ret=1
        else
            wait $pid
            cur_ret=$?
        fi
        if [ "$cur_ret" -ne 0 ]; then
            errors=$(($errors + 1))
            echo "$key (${tasks[$key]}) failed."
        fi
    done

    return $errors
}

main

下面的代码将等待所有计算的完成，并在任何doccalculation失败时返回退出状态1。

#!/bin/bash
for i in $(seq 0 9); do
   (doCalculations $i >&2 & wait %1; echo $?) &
done | grep -qv 0 && exit 1

我需要这个，但目标进程不是当前shell的子进程，在这种情况下，等待$PID不起作用。我确实找到了以下替代方案:

while [ -e /proc/$PID ]; do sleep 0.1 ; done

这依赖于procfs的存在，它可能不可用(例如Mac不提供它)。所以对于可移植性，你可以用这个代替:

while ps -p $PID >/dev/null ; do sleep 0.1 ; done

set -e
fail () {
    touch .failure
}
expect () {
    wait
    if [ -f .failure ]; then
        rm -f .failure
        exit 1
    fi
}

sleep 2 || fail &
sleep 2 && false || fail &
sleep 2 || fail
expect

顶部的set -e使脚本在失败时停止。

如果任何子作业失败，Expect将返回1。
