使用pthread的C语言中的读取器/写入器问题

[英]Reader/Writer problem in C using pthreads

当我遇到C语言中的读取器/写入器问题时,我正在学习pthread。问题非常简单,其中“写入器”线程将从外部源访问数据,而“读取器”线程将从共享缓冲区读取数据然后对数据进行伪处理。 读取器和写入器线程需要在while循环中连续运行。

我正在尝试使用POSIX接口在标准的UNIX系统上实现和编译此文件。

我已经看过一些堆栈溢出问题:

使用互斥和pthread的C语言中的Reader Writer程序

pthread中的读取器/写入器锁定

而我却一无所获。

这是我到目前为止的内容:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <semaphore.h>
#include <assert.h>

#define BUFF_SIZE 50
#define M 10
#define N 20

int get_external_data(char *buffer, int bufferSizeInBytes);
void process_data(char *buffer, int bufferSizeInBytes);

int get_external_data(char *buffer, int bufferSizeInBytes){
    int status;
    int val;
    char srcString[] = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyxABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";

    val = (int)(rand() % 62);
    if (bufferSizeInBytes < val){
        return (-1);
    }

    strncpy(buffer, srcString, val);
    return val;
}

void process_data(char *buffer, int bufferSizeInBytes){
    int i;
    if(buffer) {
        printf("thread %li - ", pthread_self());

        for(i = 0; i < bufferSizeInBytes; i++) {
            printf("%c", buffer[i]);
        }

        printf("\n");
        memset(buffer, 0, bufferSizeInBytes);
    } else {
        printf("error in process data - %li\n", pthread_self());
    }

    return;
}


pthread_mutex_t data_lock = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;
pthread_mutex_t print_lock = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;
sem_t data_count;

typedef struct node {
    struct node *next;
    char *data;
    int length;
} node_t;

node_t *head, *tail;

/**
 * This thread is responsible for pulling data off of the shared data 
 * area and processing it using the process_data() API.
 */

void *reader_thread(void *arg) {
    int rc;
    node_t *removed_node;

    while(1) {
        rc = sem_wait(&data_count);
        if (0 != rc) {
            return NULL;
        }

        pthread_mutex_lock(&data_lock);

        assert(NULL != head);
        removed_node = head;
        head = head->next;

        pthread_mutex_unlock(&data_lock);

        //Adding this lock for sake of readability at the cost of reduced consumption rate...will run out of memory eventually.

        pthread_mutex_lock(&print_lock);

        process_data(removed_node->data, removed_node->length);

        pthread_mutex_unlock(&print_lock);

        free(removed_node->data);
        free(removed_node);
    }

    return NULL;
}


/**
 * This thread is responsible for pulling data from a device using
 * the get_external_data() API and placing it into a shared area
 * for later processing by one of the reader threads.
 */

void *writer_thread(void *arg) {
    int length;
    char *buffer;
    node_t *new_node;

    new_node = (node_t*) malloc(sizeof(*new_node));
    buffer = (char*) malloc(sizeof(*buffer) * BUFF_SIZE);

    while(1) {

        length = get_external_data(buffer, BUFF_SIZE);

        if (length == -1) {
            //data too big, discard it and try again;
            continue;
        }

        new_node->next = NULL;
        new_node->length = length;
        new_node->data = buffer;

        pthread_mutex_lock(&data_lock);


        if (head == NULL) { //The linked list is completely empty   
            head = new_node;
            tail = new_node;        
        } else { //There are items in the list and we're appending  
            tail->next = new_node;
            tail = new_node;
        }

        pthread_mutex_unlock(&data_lock);

        pthread_mutex_lock(&print_lock);

        printf("thread %ld wrote - %s \n", pthread_self(), buffer);

        pthread_mutex_unlock(&print_lock);

        sem_post(&data_count);

        buffer = (char*) malloc(sizeof(*buffer) * BUFF_SIZE);
        new_node = (node_t*) malloc(sizeof(*new_node));
    }

    return NULL;
}

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    int i = sem_init(&data_count, 0, 0);
    pthread_t dummy; //creating a dummy thread

    for(i = 0; i < N; i++) { 
        pthread_create(&dummy, NULL, reader_thread, NULL);
    }

    for(i = 0; i < M; i++) { 
        pthread_create(&dummy, NULL, writer_thread, NULL);
    }

    sleep(100);
    return 0;   
}

那里有线程同步,没有任何编译错误,但是在编写器线程在缓冲区上写了几次之后,我的程序停止了。

读取器和写入器线程需要在while循环中连续运行,但在我看来,它们不是必需的。

关于如何解决此问题的任何想法?

使用gcc添加-lpthread选项以与pthread库链接,我也鼓励您添加-pedantic -Wextra -Wall选项

您的程序中有几个问题,有些是编译器指出的

在:

 printf("thread %i - ", pthread_self()); printf("error in process data - %i\\n", pthread_self()); 

在POSIX标准中,不需要pthread_t是算术类型,因此它可以是struct等,并且不能将其写为int 在您的情况下,它可能是一个int (很可能是unsigned long ),但这不是可移植的,因此最好自己管理与每个线程关联的标识符。

reader_thread

 return; 

但是函数返回一个void* ,用return NULL;代替return NULL; 例如

writer_thread

 printf("thread %d wrote - %s", buffer); 

有三个问题:

  • 类型为int的参数丢失(可能是您想要pthread_self()
  • 缓冲区是由get_external_data使用strncpy设置的,因此存在空结束符,但printf%s必需(当缺少的参数将被添加或%d被删除时)
  • 缓冲区可以通过释放reader_thread ,也许你认为它是由信号量保护,但这情况并非如此

get_external_data 状态未使用

主要

  usleep(100); 

这是给线程工作的非常短的时间,实际上您只想被阻塞,因此可以将其替换为pthread_join(dummy, NULL);


有线程标识符的建议:在堆中分配一个int ,为它设置一个唯一的数字,然后将in参数提供给创建的线程:

int main() {
    ...
    for(i = 0; i < N; i++) { 
      int * m = malloc(sizeof(int));

      *m = i;
      pthread_create(&dummy, NULL, reader_thread, m);
    }

    for(i = 0; i < M; i++) { 
      int * m = malloc(sizeof(int));

      *m = 100 + i;
      pthread_create(&dummy, NULL, writer_thread, m);
    }
    ...
}

void *writer_thread(void *arg) {
    int id = *((int*) arg);
    ...
    free((int*) arg);
    ...
    printf("thread %d wrote - %s", id, buffer);
    ...
}

void *reader_thread(void *arg) {
    int id = *((int*) arg);
    ...
    free((int*) arg);
    ...
    process_data(removed_node->data, removed_node->length, id);
    ...
}

void process_data(char *buffer, int bufferSizeInBytes, int id){
    ...
        printf("thread %i - ", id);
...
        printf("error in process data - %i\n", id);
...
}

在上次更改之后,由于其他问题,在valgrind下执行的操作会出现错误:
