如何在bash脚本中等待从该脚本派生的几个子进程完成,然后在任何子进程以code !=0结束时返回退出代码!=0?

简单的脚本:

#!/bin/bash
for i in `seq 0 9`; do
  doCalculations $i &
done
wait

上面的脚本将等待所有10个子进程,但它总是给出退出状态0(参见help wait)。我如何修改这个脚本,以便它将发现衍生子进程的退出状态,并在任何子进程以code !=0结束时返回退出代码1 ?

有没有比收集子进程的pid、按顺序等待它们并求和退出状态更好的解决方案呢?

为了将此并行化…

for i in $(whatever_list) ; do
   do_something $i
done

翻译成这样…

for i in $(whatever_list) ; do echo $i ; done | ## execute in parallel...
   (
   export -f do_something ## export functions (if needed)
   export PATH ## export any variables that are required
   xargs -I{} --max-procs 0 bash -c ' ## process in batches...
      {
      echo "processing {}" ## optional
      do_something {}
      }' 
   )

If an error occurs in one process, it won't interrupt the other processes, but it will result in a non-zero exit code from the sequence as a whole. Exporting functions and variables may or may not be necessary, in any particular case. You can set --max-procs based on how much parallelism you want (0 means "all at once"). GNU Parallel offers some additional features when used in place of xargs -- but it isn't always installed by default. The for loop isn't strictly necessary in this example since echo $i is basically just regenerating the output of $(whatever_list). I just think the use of the for keyword makes it a little easier to see what is going on. Bash string handling can be confusing -- I have found that using single quotes works best for wrapping non-trivial scripts. You can easily interrupt the entire operation (using ^C or similar), unlike the the more direct approach to Bash parallelism.

下面是一个简化的工作示例……

for i in {0..5} ; do echo $i ; done |xargs -I{} --max-procs 2 bash -c '
   {
   echo sleep {}
   sleep 2s
   }'

简单地说:

#!/bin/bash

pids=""

for i in `seq 0 9`; do
   doCalculations $i &
   pids="$pids $!"
done

wait $pids

...code continued here ...

更新:

正如许多评论者指出的那样,上面的代码在继续之前会等待所有进程完成,但如果其中一个进程失败了,它不会退出,也不会失败,可以通过@Bryan, @SamBrightman和其他人建议的以下修改来完成:

#!/bin/bash

pids=""
RESULT=0


for i in `seq 0 9`; do
   doCalculations $i &
   pids="$pids $!"
done

for pid in $pids; do
    wait $pid || let "RESULT=1"
done

if [ "$RESULT" == "1" ];
    then
       exit 1
fi

...code continued here ...

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。

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。

在等待流程之前,流程可能已经完成。如果我们触发等待一个已经完成的进程,它将触发一个错误,比如pid不是这个shell的子进程。为了避免这种情况,可以使用以下函数来查找过程是否完成:

isProcessComplete(){
PID=$1
while [ -e /proc/$PID ]
do
    echo "Process: $PID is still running"
    sleep 5
done
echo "Process $PID has finished"
}

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:
