fork - 利用信号在父子进程间传递指针的实验

接上篇文章，父子进程间可以传递数据，那么能传递指针吗？我们来试试：

 25                         struct sigaction act;
 26                         act.sa_sigaction=handler_sigint;
 27                         act.sa_flags=SA_SIGINFO;
 28                         sigaction(SIGINT,&act,NULL);
 29                         pause();
 30                         break;
 31                 }
 32                 default:

 34                         int signum=SIGINT;
 35                         int i,stat;
 36                         value.sival_ptr=&signum;
 37                         printf("parent process is running\n");
 38                         int *a;
 39                         a=(int *)value.sival_ptr;
 40                         printf("In the father process,the pointer data is %d\n",*a);
 41                         if(argc!=1&&argc!=3&&argc!=5)
 42                         {
 43                                 printf("./send_pointer\n");
 44                                 exit(1);
 45                         }
 46                         for(i=1;i<argc;i++)
 47                         {
 48                                 if(!strcmp(argv[i],"-s"))
 49                                 {
 50                                         signum=atoi(argv[i+1]);
 51                                         continue;
 52                                 }
 53                         }

 55                         if(sigqueue(pid,signum,value) < 0)
 56                         {
 57                                 perror("sigqueue");
 58                                 exit(1);
 59                         }
 60                         wait(&stat);
 61                         break;
 62                 }
 63         }
 64         return 0;
 65 }

运行结果：

[wjl@wjl-desktop ~/c/signal 17:58:37 #86]$ ./send_pointer
parent process is running
In the father process,the pointer data is 2
child process is running
recv SIGINT,the pointer data is 9199808

从结果可以看到指针可以传递过去，但是指针所指的值变化了，为什么呢？答案很简单，在进程那部分，我们一直在强调一点：父子进程的地址空间是相互独立的！所以在父子进程间传递指针是没有意义的。
