python使用signal模块编写超时处理

我下面写了一个超时处理脚本，主要用来超时处理nfs服务挂死的情况，如果检测到挂载超时，就会执行sys.exit(1)报错退出：

#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import os,os.path,sys,commands,signal,time

class MountExcepition(Exception):
    def __init__(self,value):
        self.value = value
    def __str__(self):
        return repr(self.value)

#设置命令超时
class TimeOutException(Exception):
    pass
 
def setTimeout(num, callback):
    def wrape(func):
        def handle(signum, frame):
            raise TimeOutException("运行超时！")
        def toDo(*args, **kwargs):
            try:
                signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, handle)
                signal.alarm(num)#开启闹钟信号
                rs = func(*args, **kwargs)
                signal.alarm(0)#关闭闹钟信号
                return rs
            except TimeOutException, e:
                callback()          
        return toDo
    return wrape

        
if __name__ == '__main__':
    def doSome():
        sys.exit(1)    
    @setTimeout(8,doSome)
    #nfs服务检查函数
    def check_task():
        try:
            cmd = "ls -l /nfs_5580_check"
            (status,output) = commands.getstatusoutput("%s" %cmd)
            if status != 0:
                raise MountExcepition(output)
            
        except MountExcepition as e:
            print "fail"
            sys.exit(1)       
        else:
            print "success"
    
    check_task()
