二进制信号量和互斥量之间有区别吗?或者它们本质上是相同的?


当前回答

修改问题是-互斥量和“二进制”信号量在“Linux”中的区别是什么?

答:以下是它们的区别 i)作用域——互斥锁的作用域在创建它的进程地址空间内,用于线程同步。而信号量可以跨进程空间使用,因此它可以用于进程间同步。

ii)互斥量是轻量级的,比信号量更快。Futex甚至更快。

iii)同一线程可以成功多次获得互斥锁,条件是互斥锁释放次数相同。其他线程试图获取将阻塞。而对于信号量,如果同一个进程试图再次获取它,它会阻塞,因为它只能获得一次。

正如这里许多人提到的,互斥锁用于保护关键代码段(又名临界段)。你将在同一个线程中获得互斥锁(lock),进入临界区,释放互斥锁(unlock)。

在使用信号量时,您可以让一个线程(例如线程a)等待一个信号量,直到另一个线程(例如线程B)完成任何任务,然后为线程a设置信号量以停止等待,并继续其任务。

You obviously use mutex to lock a data in one thread getting accessed by another thread at the same time. Assume that you have just called lock() and in the process of accessing data. This means that you don’t expect any other thread (or another instance of the same thread-code) to access the same data locked by the same mutex. That is, if it is the same thread-code getting executed on a different thread instance, hits the lock, then the lock() should block the control flow there. This applies to a thread that uses a different thread-code, which is also accessing the same data and which is also locked by the same mutex. In this case, you are still in the process of accessing the data and you may take, say, another 15 secs to reach the mutex unlock (so that the other thread that is getting blocked in mutex lock would unblock and would allow the control to access the data). Do you at any cost allow yet another thread to just unlock the same mutex, and in turn, allow the thread that is already waiting (blocking) in the mutex lock to unblock and access the data? Hope you got what I am saying here? As per, agreed upon universal definition!,

使用“互斥”就不会发生这种情况。没有其他线程可以解锁锁 在你的帖子里 使用“二进制信号量”可以实现这种情况。任何其他线程都可以解锁 线程中的锁

因此,如果您非常注重使用二进制信号量而不是互斥量,那么在锁定和解锁的“作用域”时应该非常小心。我的意思是,每个触及每个锁的控制流都应该触及一个解锁调用,也不应该有任何“第一次解锁”,而应该总是“第一次锁定”。

二进制信号量和互斥量的区别: 所有权: 信号量甚至可以从非当前所有者发出信号(发布)。这意味着您可以简单地从任何其他线程发布,尽管您不是所有者。

信号量是进程中的公共属性,它可以简单地由非所有者线程发布。 请用粗体字标出这个区别,这意味着很多。

互斥锁:假设我们有临界区线程T1想要访问它,然后按照以下步骤进行。 T1:

锁 使用临界区 解锁

二进制信号量:它基于信号等待和信号工作。 等待将“s”的值减少1,通常“s”的值初始化为值“1”, 信号(s)使“s”值加1。如果“s”值为1表示没有人在使用临界区,当“s”值为0时表示临界区正在使用。 假设线程T2正在使用临界区,那么它遵循以下步骤。 T2:

Wait (s)//最初的s值是1,调用Wait后,它的值减少了1,即0 利用临界区 信号(s) //现在s值增加,变成1

Main difference between Mutex and Binary semaphore is in Mutext if thread lock the critical section then it has to unlock critical section no other thread can unlock it, but in case of Binary semaphore if one thread locks critical section using wait(s) function then value of s become "0" and no one can access it until value of "s" become 1 but suppose some other thread calls signal(s) then value of "s" become 1 and it allows other function to use critical section. hence in Binary semaphore thread doesn't have ownership.

互斥量和二进制信号量是相同的用法,但实际上,它们是不同的。

对于互斥锁,只有锁定了它的线程才能解锁它。如果有其他线程来锁定它,它将等待。

对于信号电话来说,情况就不是这样了。信号量没有与特定的线程ID绑定。
