linux do_fork() 如何为父子进程优先级设置,_do_fork()如何返回两个不同的PID(一个用于父进程,一个用于子进程)...

我正在查看

_do_fork()函数(),试图理解fork()如何返回父进程的子PID和子进程的0.

我认为nr包含子进程的PID(将返回到调用者进程),但我看不出它如何能够将0返回到子进程.

答案How does fork() know when to return 0?说返回值是在为新进程创建的堆栈上传递的,但是(除了没有真正理解它)我在代码中找不到它.

那么,为子进程设置返回值0的位置是什么？

_do_fork()函数的代码复制如下：

long _do_fork(unsigned long clone_flags,

unsigned long stack_start,

unsigned long stack_size,

int __user *parent_tidptr,

int __user *child_tidptr,

unsigned long tls)

{

struct task_struct *p;

int trace = 0;

long nr;

/*

* Determine whether and which event to report to ptracer. When

* called from kernel_thread or CLONE_UNTRACED is explicitly

* requested, no event is reported; otherwise, report if the event

* for the type of forking is enabled.

*/

if (!(clone_flags & CLONE_UNTRACED)) {

if (clone_flags & CLONE_VFORK)

trace = PTRACE_EVENT_VFORK;

else if ((clone_flags & CSIGNAL) != SIGCHLD)

trace = PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE;

else

trace = PTRACE_EVENT_FORK;

if (likely(!ptrace_event_enabled(current, trace)))

trace = 0;

}

p = copy_process(clone_flags, stack_start, stack_size,

child_tidptr, NULL, trace, tls, NUMA_NO_NODE);

add_latent_entropy();

/*

* Do this prior waking up the new thread - the thread pointer

* might get invalid after that point, if the thread exits quickly.

*/

if (!IS_ERR(p)) {

struct completion vfork;

struct pid *pid;

trace_sched_process_fork(current, p);

pid = get_task_pid(p, PIDTYPE_PID);

nr = pid_vnr(pid);

if (clone_flags & CLONE_PARENT_SETTID)

put_user(nr, parent_tidptr);

if (clone_flags & CLONE_VFORK) {

p->vfork_done = &vfork;

init_completion(&vfork);

get_task_struct(p);

}

wake_up_new_task(p);

/* forking complete and child started to run, tell ptracer */

if (unlikely(trace))

ptrace_event_pid(trace, pid);

if (clone_flags & CLONE_VFORK) {

if (!wait_for_vfork_done(p, &vfork))

ptrace_event_pid(PTRACE_EVENT_VFORK_DONE, pid);

}

put_pid(pid);

} else {

nr = PTR_ERR(p);

}

return nr;

}
