在分析linux系统调用fork，linux系统调用execve时，已经知道：
1.fork时，子进程会复制父进程的打开文件描述符表
2.exec时，进程的打开文件描述符表保持不变
用以下代码观察fork,exec打开文件的变化情况：
父进程fork子进程，睡眠一定时间（方便命令行查看打开文件）；
子进程fork孙进程，睡眠一定时间；
孙进程exec新程序，新程序也睡眠一定时间

用以下命令观察三个进程打开文件的变化情况：
查看当前终端并运行openfiles：
[redhat@localhost fork_exec_openfiles]$ tty
/dev/pts/6
[redhat@localhost fork_exec_openfiles]$ ./openfiles 90
通过终端查看刚才运行的进程：
[redhat@localhost fork_exec_openfiles]$ ps -t pts/6 -f

redhat 13780 2851 0 Jun29 pts/6 00:00:00 bash
通过lsof命令观察以上进程打开的文件：

父进程：8165
fork的子进程：8166
exec的孙进程：8167
由以上数据可以看出：
1.对比父进程与子进程打开的文件，可知fork后子进程会保持父进程打开的文件不变；父子进程打开的文件在fork之后会相互独立，如上例的子进程新打开的文件4不会出现在父进程打开文件表中。
2.对比子进程与孙进程打开的文件，可知exec后孙进程会保持子进程打开的文件不变（注意子进程文件4是在exec之后打开的）；子孙进程打开的文件在exec之后相互独立，如上例的子进程打开的文件4不会出现在孙进程中，孙进程打开的文件4不会出现在子进程中。
所以可以通过打开的文件描述符实现父子进程的通信。
如以下命令
[redhat@localhost fork_exec_openfiles]$ ps -o pid,ppid,comm | cat
PID PPID COMMAND
8771 13780 ps
8772 13780 cat
13780 2851 bash就用到了管道和打开文件描述符表来实现通信：
1.shell创建一个管道，并fork两个进程，8771和8772
2.将进程8771的标准输出dup2到管道的写端（如有必要dup2会自动关闭标准输出），然后exec装入ps镜像，ps开始执行，输出写到管道中
3.将进程8772的标准输入dup2到管道的读端（如有必要dup2会自动关闭标准输入），然后exec装入cat镜像，cat开始执行，从管道中读数据
由于fork与exec过程中，打开文件描述符表都不变，所以可以通过以上步骤来实现进程间管道通信。
