Linux多线程编程 - sleep 和 pthread_cond_timedwait
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int flag = 1;
void * thr_fn(void * arg)
{
while (flag)
{
printf("******\n");
sleep(10);
}
printf("sleep test thread exit\n");
}
int main()
{
pthread_t thread;
if (0 != pthread_create(&thread, NULL, thr_fn, NULL))
{
printf("error when create pthread,%d\n", errno);
return 1;
}
char c ;
while ((c = getchar()) != 'q');
printf("Now terminate the thread!\n");
flag = 0;
printf("Wait for thread to exit\n");
pthread_join(thread, NULL);
printf("Bye\n"); return 0;
}
输入q后，需要等线程从sleep中醒来（由挂起状态变为运行状态），即最坏情况要等10s，线程才会被join。采用sleep的缺点：不能及时唤醒线程。
采用pthread_cond_timedwait函数，条件到了，线程即会被join，可及时唤醒线程。实现的如下：
|
#include <stdio.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <errno.h> static pthread_t thread; static pthread_cond_t cond; static pthread_mutex_t mutex; static int flag = 1; void * thr_fn(void * arg) { struct timeval now; struct timespec outtime; pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex); while (flag) { printf("*****\n"); gettimeofday(&now, NULL); outtime.tv_sec = now.tv_sec + 5; outtime.tv_nsec = now.tv_usec * 1000; pthread_cond_timedwait(&cond, &mutex, &outtime); } pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex); printf("cond thread exit\n"); } int main(void) { pthread_mutex_init(&mutex, NULL); pthread_cond_init(&cond, NULL); if (0 != pthread_create(&thread, NULL, thr_fn, NULL)) { printf("error when create pthread,%d\n", errno); return 1; } char c ; while ((c = getchar()) != 'q'); printf("Now terminate the thread!\n"); pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex); flag = 0; pthread_cond_signal(&cond); pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex); printf("Wait for thread to exit\n"); pthread_join(thread, NULL); printf("Bye\n"); return 0; } |
pthread_cond_timedwait()函数阻塞住调用该函数的线程，等待由cond指定的条件被触发（pthread_cond_broadcast() or pthread_cond_signal()）。
当pthread_cond_timedwait()被调用时，调用线程必须已经锁住了mutex。函数pthread_cond_timedwait()会对mutex进行【解锁和执行对条件的等待】（原子操作）。
