fork - How to limit the child process in perl? -
i have written script includes generation of gcov in parallel.i succeeded in creating 17 child process @ time.but want create 6 child processes @ time,the 7th child should create after 1child process terminate.
sub gcov_parallel() 2 { 3 print "generating gcov...\n"; 4 $kid; 5 $pid; 6 @list = (@iucall,@iurcall_init,@iurcall_term,@iurcall_uti,@nob,@nobcch,@nobcell,@nobrrc,@nobcall,@rnccall,@cellin fo,@rnccom,@cellrrm,@uerrm,@uerrc,@uecall,@iupcded); 7 $len_list = scalar(@list); 8 $maxlen =0; 9 $count = 0; 10 $process = 0; 11 $total_components = scalar(@comp_list); 12 13 for(my $comp_count=0; $comp_count < $len_list ; ($comp_count=$comp_count+$no_of_machines)) 14 { 15 #limiting child process 6 16 if($process == 6) 17 { 18 $pid = wait(); 19 $process=$process-1; 20 } 21 else 22 { 23 $pid = fork(); 24 if($pid eq 0) 25 { 26 for(my $files_count = 0; $files_count < $no_of_machines; $files_count++) 27 { 28 $count = $files_count+$comp_count; 29 if($count < $len_list) 30 { 31 chomp($list[$count]); 32 @list_gcda =`ls $list[$count]/*.gcda | sort`; &generate_gcov("$list[$count]",@list_gcda); 34 } 35 } 36 wait(); 37 exit; 38 } 39 $process=$process+1; 40 } 41 } 42 43 { 44 $kid = waitpid(-1, 0); 45 }while $kid > 0; 46 } observed while running script skipping files while generating gcov.
i think use paralel::forkmanager this.
there good tutorial on perlmonks paralel::forkmanager.
it simple:
my $manager = parallel::forkmanager->new( 6 ); foreach $command (@commands) { $manager->start , next; system( $command ); $manager->finish; };
