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。

如果你安装了GNU Parallel，你可以这样做:

# If doCalculations is a function
export -f doCalculations
seq 0 9 | parallel doCalculations {}

GNU Parallel会给你退出代码:

0 -所有作业运行无错误。 1-253 -部分作业失败。退出状态给出了失败作业的数量 254—超过253个作业失败。 255 -其他错误。

我刚刚修改了一个脚本到后台和并行化的过程。

我做了一些实验(在Solaris上使用bash和ksh)，发现如果退出状态不为零，'wait'将输出退出状态，或者当没有提供PID参数时，将输出一个返回非零退出的作业列表。如。

Bash:

$ sleep 20 && exit 1 &
$ sleep 10 && exit 2 &
$ wait
[1]-  Exit 2                  sleep 20 && exit 2
[2]+  Exit 1                  sleep 10 && exit 1

Ksh:

$ sleep 20 && exit 1 &
$ sleep 10 && exit 2 &
$ wait
[1]+  Done(2)                  sleep 20 && exit 2
[2]+  Done(1)                  sleep 10 && exit 1

这个输出被写入stderr，所以OPs示例的简单解决方案可以是:

#!/bin/bash

trap "rm -f /tmp/x.$$" EXIT

for i in `seq 0 9`; do
  doCalculations $i &
done

wait 2> /tmp/x.$$
if [ `wc -l /tmp/x.$$` -gt 0 ] ; then
  exit 1
fi

虽然这:

wait 2> >(wc -l)

也将返回一个计数，但不包含TMP文件。这也可以这样使用，例如:

wait 2> >(if [ `wc -l` -gt 0 ] ; then echo "ERROR"; fi)

但是这并不比tmp文件有用多少。我找不到一种有效的方法来避免tmp文件，同时也避免在子shell中运行“等待”，这根本不会起作用。

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 {

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

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

http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/010717.html:

#!/bin/bash

FAIL=0

echo "starting"

./sleeper 2 0 &
./sleeper 2 1 &
./sleeper 3 0 &
./sleeper 2 0 &

for job in `jobs -p`
do
echo $job
    wait $job || let "FAIL+=1"
done

echo $FAIL

if [ "$FAIL" == "0" ];
then
echo "YAY!"
else
echo "FAIL! ($FAIL)"
fi

这是有效的，应该是一个很好的，如果不是更好的@HoverHell的答案!

#!/usr/bin/env bash

set -m # allow for job control
EXIT_CODE=0;  # exit code of overall script

function foo() {
     echo "CHLD exit code is $1"
     echo "CHLD pid is $2"
     echo $(jobs -l)

     for job in `jobs -p`; do
         echo "PID => ${job}"
         wait ${job} ||  echo "At least one test failed with exit code => $?" ; EXIT_CODE=1
     done
}

trap 'foo $? $$' CHLD

DIRN=$(dirname "$0");

commands=(
    "{ echo "foo" && exit 4; }"
    "{ echo "bar" && exit 3; }"
    "{ echo "baz" && exit 5; }"
)

clen=`expr "${#commands[@]}" - 1` # get length of commands - 1

for i in `seq 0 "$clen"`; do
    (echo "${commands[$i]}" | bash) &   # run the command via bash in subshell
    echo "$i ith command has been issued as a background job"
done

# wait for all to finish
wait;

echo "EXIT_CODE => $EXIT_CODE"
exit "$EXIT_CODE"

# end

当然，我已经在一个NPM项目中保存了这个脚本，它允许你并行运行bash命令，对测试很有用:
