某Team在用Python开发一些代码，涉及子进程以及设法消除僵尸进程的需求。实践中他们碰上Python程序非预期退出的现象。最初他们决定 用GDB调试Python解释器，查看exit()的源头。我听了之后，觉得这个问题应该用别的调试思路。帮他们排查这次程序故障时，除去原始问题，还衍 生了其他问题。

为了简化现场、方便调试，已将原始问题、衍生问题浓缩成DebugPythonWithGDB_6.py、DebugPythonWithGDB_7.py。

OSError: [Errno 10] No child processes

流程进入on_SIGCHLD()，但os.waitpid()抛出OSError异常。帮助里写的是，如果系统调用 waitpid()返回-1，就抛出异常: An OSError is raised with the value of errno when  the syscall returns -1. 10245号子进程在on_SIGCHLD()里waitpid()成功，(10245,  9)中的9表示该进程是被SIGKILL干掉的，符合预期。  10246号子进程是do_more()里的os.system()产生的shell进程，它结束时向10244号父进程投递了SIGCHLD信号。 on_SIGCHLD()里waitpid()时，已经在别处wait*()过，10246号子进程已经彻底消失，系统调用waitpid()返回 -1，Python函数os.waitpid()抛出异常。 整个过程非常复杂，用伪代码描述如下:

整个过程之所以如此复杂，主要是因为Python的信号处理机制比较复杂，让已经非常复杂的Linux信号机制再添变数。参看:

PHP

2

《2.50 对Python解释器进行调试》

《22.0 Linux信号机制》

就本例而言，为了确保DebugPythonWithGDB_6.py不因OSError异常而终止，只需在on_SIGCHLD()中调用os.waitpid()时捕捉OSError异常:

PHP

def on_SIGCHLD ( signum, frame ) :

    try :

        print os.waitpid( -1, os.WNOHANG )

    except OSError :

        sys.stdout.write( 'Line[%u]: OSError\n' % sys.exc_info()[2].tb_lineno )

前述观点有些是动态调试得到，有些是静态分析得到。有人可能问了，为什么不拦截Python进程的C级信号句柄，查看SIGCHLD 信号源，以此确认10246号子进程可能被回收两次？其实我最初也想这么干来着，但这是行不通的，因为Python的C级信号句柄 signal_handler()是那种最原始的单形参信号句柄，不是高大上的三形参信号句柄。 用GDB调试Python解释器:

因为是单形参信号句柄，没有siginfo，无法在用户态获知信号源。但我分析此时的信号源不是10289号子进程，而是10288 号子进程。10288产生SIGCHLD时，SIGCHLD信号已被屏蔽(阻塞)，只能保持在内核态的未决信号链上。之后待10289产生SIGCHLD 时，sigpending.signal中相应位已经置位，10289产生的SIGCHLD被丢弃，不会进入内核态的未决信号链。SIGCHLD信号的屏 蔽(阻塞)被取消后，从内核态的未决信号链上取出10288产生的SIGCHLD进行处理。于是断点***。  如果完全理解了前述实验结果及分析，就会发现DebugPythonWithGDB_6.py存在竞争条件。subprocess.Popen()对应的 子进程投递SIGCHLD信号时，父进程有两种可能:

PHP

1

2

1) os.system()调用sigprocmask( SIG_BLOCK, &sa.sa_mask, &omask )之前

2) os.system()调用sigprocmask( SIG_BLOCK, &sa.sa_mask, &omask )之后

情况1)会触发OSError异常，情况2)不会触发OSError异常。执行: $ python  DebugPythonWithGDB_6.py ‘python -c “import time;time.sleep(3600)”‘  有时会因OSError异常而终止，有时就一直循环执行下去。出现这种差异，正是竞争环境的表征。 小结一下:  假设针对SIGCHLD安装了Python级信号句柄，其调用os.waitpid( -1, os.WNOHANG  )回收子进程。如果别处会调用os.system()，则必须在os.waitpid()外侧捕捉OSError异常。不建议这种方式的混用。  对waitpid()的分析到此就结束了，说点调试过程中出现的其他问题。 意外地发现Ctrl-C无法终止情况2)，而我已经调用:  signal.signal( signal.SIGINT, signal.SIG_DFL ) 这是因为do_system()中一上来就调用了:

PHP

1

2

sa.sa_handler   = SIG_IGN;

sigaction( SIGINT, &sa, &intr );

导致Ctrl-C暂时失效，直至do_system()结束。假设DebugPythonWithGDB_6.py已经出 现情况2)，查看它的信号处理方式:

考虑这种情形，调用subprocess.Popen()之前做过如下动作之一:

PHP

2

signal.signal( signal.SIGCHLD, signal.SIG_IGN )

signal.signal( signal.SIGCHLD, on_SIGCHLD )

_internal_poll()调用_waitpid()时，在外侧捕捉了_os_error异常，就是对付上述可能。 subprocess.Popen()不是built-in函数，对应很多条PVM指令，不像os.system()是built-in函数，对应单条 PVM指令。前者执行过程中，Python级信号句柄on_SIGCHLD()有很大机会得到执行，_internal_poll()调用 _waitpid()，遭遇_os_error异常的可能性不低。  Popen()对象的析构函数自动调用wait*()，于是Popen()对象离开作用域时自动回收子进程。  Python能够改变变量作用域的是def、class、lamda、global。下面这些并不涉及作用域变更:

PHP

1

2

3

if/elif/else

try/except/finally

for/while

DebugPythonWithGDB_7.py中Popen()对象的作用域是main()。尽管没有离开作用域，但对child 变量的重新赋值会触发对前一个Popen()对象的析构。这就解释了为什么始终只有一个僵尸进程。  回顾原始问题与衍生问题，再次表明，掌握对Python解释器的调试技术可以快速排查众多看似神秘实则基础的程序故障。
