times() 返回的 struct tms 值全部为零或负数

发布于 2024-12-13 04:46:28 字数 4073 浏览 1 评论 0原文

我正在尝试在 C 编程中实现 times() 函数。

我正在使用 struct tms 结构,其中包含以下字段:tms_utime、tms_cutime、 tms_stime 和 tms_cstime。

为了在我的程序中实现 times() 函数,我这样做:

  1. 在分叉并创建子进程之前,我调用 times 函数(在父进程中)。

    times(&start_tms);
    
  2. 我创建一个管道,并在处于子进程中时将启动结构的时间传递给管道。
  3. 子进程执行一个简单的 ls -l 命令
  4. 当子进程完成执行时,父进程第二次调用 times() 函数。

    times(&end_tms);
    

    不幸的是,end_tms 的次数全部为零!很奇怪,但我不知道为什么。

我在程序中不明白的一些事情是:

1)在第一个 printfs 中,结构开始的时间是负数。这是为什么? 2)当我运行程序时,为什么我多次得到零?我做错了什么?

我的程序如下:

谢谢,提前

I'm trying to implement the times() function in C programming.

I'm using the struct tms structure which consists of the fields: tms_utime, tms_cutime,
tms_stime and tms_cstime.

In order to implement the times() function in my program, I do:

  1. Before I fork and create a child, I call the times function (in the parent process).

    times(&start_tms);
    
  2. I create a pipe and I pass the times of start structure to the pipe when I'm in the child process.
  3. The child executes a simple ls -l command
  4. When the child finishes he execution, the father calls for the second time the times() function.

    times(&end_tms);
    

    Unfortunately, the times of end_tms are all zero! Weird, but I don't know why.

Some things I don't understand in my program are:

1) In the first printfs the times of the struct start are negative. Why is that?
2) When I run the program, why do I get zeros for times? What am i doing wrong?

My program is as follows:

你的逻辑很奇怪。您在子级中执行的写入操作只是复制 start_tms 中父级已可用的数据,因此整个管道读/写操作是不必要的。

其次,clock_t 不是浮点类型,它是整型。您不能使用 %f 来打印它。在 printf 中使用 %jdintmax_t 是安全的。

并且您缺少 waitpid 的 #include 。因此,请打开编译器警告并阅读它们。

以下是适用于此处的代码的 C99 版本:

#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <inttypes.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <sys/times.h>
#include <sys/types.h>

int main() {
    struct tms start_tms;
    struct tms end_tms;

    //once we have established the pipeline we fork the child
    pid_t   childpid;

    times(&start_tms);

    printf("Test start_tms.tms_utime = %jd\n\n",  (intmax_t)start_tms.tms_utime);
    printf("Test start_tms.tms_cutime = %jd\n\n", (intmax_t)start_tms.tms_cutime);
    printf("Test start_tms.tms_stime = %jd\n\n",  (intmax_t)start_tms.tms_stime);
    printf("Test start_tms.tms_cstime = %jd\n\n",  (intmax_t)start_tms.tms_cstime);


    if((childpid = fork()) == -1)
    {
        perror("fork");
        exit(1);
    }

    if(childpid == 0)
    {
        //execute /bin/ls
        execl("/bin/ls", "/bin/ls", "-R", "-t", "-l", (char *) 0);
        exit(0);
    }
    else
    {
        /* Parent process */

        /* NEW MODIFICATION, wait for the child!!! */
        if (waitpid(childpid,NULL,0) == -1)
        {
            perror("waitpid");
            exit(1);
        }

        /* call times for capturing end times */
        times(&end_tms);

        printf("Test end_tms.tms_utime = %jd\n\n",end_tms.tms_utime);
        printf("Test end_tms.tms_cutime = %jd\n\n",end_tms.tms_cutime);
        printf("Test end_tms.tms_stime = %jd\n\n",end_tms.tms_stime);
        printf("Test end_tms.tms_cstime = %jd\n\n",end_tms.tms_cstime);

        /* Calculate times, unfortunately return zero, but why??? */
        clock_t cpu_time = end_tms.tms_cutime - start_tms.tms_cutime;
        clock_t utime = end_tms.tms_utime - start_tms.tms_utime;
        clock_t stime = end_tms.tms_stime - start_tms.tms_stime;
        clock_t cstime = end_tms.tms_cstime - start_tms.tms_cstime;

        //Unfortunately printfs return zero, but why???
        printf("cpu time %jd\n\n",  (intmax_t)cpu_time);
        printf("cpu Utime %jd\n\n", (intmax_t)utime);
        printf("cpu Stime %jd\n\n", (intmax_t)stime);
        printf("cpu CStime %jd\n\n", (intmax_t)cstime);
    }
}

如果您没有 intmax_t,请检查您的实现中 clock_t 的大小,并找到与其匹配的标准整数类型,并在 printf 调用中使用适当的格式字符串。

Your logic is very strange. The writes you do in the child simply copy data that is already available to the parent in start_tms, so your whole pipe read/write thing is unnecessary.

Secondly, clock_t is not a floating point type, it's an integral type. You can't use %f to print it. Use %jd and intmax_t to be safe in the printfs.

And you're missing #include <sys/wait.h> for waitpid. So turn on your compiler warnings, and read them.

Here's a C99 version of your code that works here:

#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <inttypes.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <sys/times.h>
#include <sys/types.h>

int main() {
    struct tms start_tms;
    struct tms end_tms;

    //once we have established the pipeline we fork the child
    pid_t   childpid;

    times(&start_tms);

    printf("Test start_tms.tms_utime = %jd\n\n",  (intmax_t)start_tms.tms_utime);
    printf("Test start_tms.tms_cutime = %jd\n\n", (intmax_t)start_tms.tms_cutime);
    printf("Test start_tms.tms_stime = %jd\n\n",  (intmax_t)start_tms.tms_stime);
    printf("Test start_tms.tms_cstime = %jd\n\n",  (intmax_t)start_tms.tms_cstime);


    if((childpid = fork()) == -1)
    {
        perror("fork");
        exit(1);
    }

    if(childpid == 0)
    {
        //execute /bin/ls
        execl("/bin/ls", "/bin/ls", "-R", "-t", "-l", (char *) 0);
        exit(0);
    }
    else
    {
        /* Parent process */

        /* NEW MODIFICATION, wait for the child!!! */
        if (waitpid(childpid,NULL,0) == -1)
        {
            perror("waitpid");
            exit(1);
        }

        /* call times for capturing end times */
        times(&end_tms);

        printf("Test end_tms.tms_utime = %jd\n\n",end_tms.tms_utime);
        printf("Test end_tms.tms_cutime = %jd\n\n",end_tms.tms_cutime);
        printf("Test end_tms.tms_stime = %jd\n\n",end_tms.tms_stime);
        printf("Test end_tms.tms_cstime = %jd\n\n",end_tms.tms_cstime);

        /* Calculate times, unfortunately return zero, but why??? */
        clock_t cpu_time = end_tms.tms_cutime - start_tms.tms_cutime;
        clock_t utime = end_tms.tms_utime - start_tms.tms_utime;
        clock_t stime = end_tms.tms_stime - start_tms.tms_stime;
        clock_t cstime = end_tms.tms_cstime - start_tms.tms_cstime;

        //Unfortunately printfs return zero, but why???
        printf("cpu time %jd\n\n",  (intmax_t)cpu_time);
        printf("cpu Utime %jd\n\n", (intmax_t)utime);
        printf("cpu Stime %jd\n\n", (intmax_t)stime);
        printf("cpu CStime %jd\n\n", (intmax_t)cstime);
    }
}

If you don't have intmax_t, check the size of clock_t on your implementation and find a standard integer type that matches it, and use the appropriate format string in your printf calls.
