有什么快速而简单的方法可以确保在给定时间内只有一个shell脚本实例在运行?


当前回答

我对现有的答案有以下问题:

Some answers try to clean up lock files and then having to deal with stale lock files caused by e.g. sudden crash/reboot. IMO that is unnecessarily complicated. Let lock files stay. Some answers use script file itself $0 or $BASH_SOURCE for locking often referring to examples from man flock. This fails when script is replaced due to update or edit causing next run to open and obtain lock on the new script file even though another instance holding a lock on the removed file is still running. Few answers use a fixed file descriptor. This is not ideal. I do not want to rely on how this will behave e.g. opening lock file fails but gets mishandled and attempts to lock on unrelated file descriptor inherited from parent process. Another fail case is injecting locking wrapper for a 3rd party binary that does not handle locking itself but fixed file descriptors can interfere with file descriptor passing to child processes. I reject answers using process lookup for already running script name. There are several reasons for it, such as but not limited to reliability/atomicity, parsing output, and having script that does several related functions some of which do not require locking.

这个答案是:

rely on flock because it gets kernel to provide locking ... provided lock file is created atomically and not replaced. assume and rely on lock file being stored on the local filesystem as opposed to NFS. change lock file presence to NOT mean anything about a running instance. Its role is purely to prevent two concurrent instances creating file with same name and replacing another's copy. Lock file does not get deleted, it gets left behind and can survive across reboots. The locking is indicated via flock not via lock file presence. assume bash shell, as tagged by the question.

它不是一个联机程序,但是没有注释和错误消息,它足够小:

#!/bin/bash

LOCKFILE=/var/lock/TODO

set -o noclobber
exec {lockfd}<> "${LOCKFILE}" || exit 1
set +o noclobber # depends on what you need
flock --exclusive --nonblock ${lockfd} || exit 1

但我更喜欢注释和错误消息:

#!/bin/bash

# TODO Set a lock file name
LOCKFILE=/var/lock/myprogram.lock

# Set noclobber option to ensure lock file is not REPLACED.
set -o noclobber

# Open lock file for R+W on a new file descriptor
# and assign the new file descriptor to "lockfd" variable.
# This does NOT obtain a lock but ensures the file exists and opens it.
exec {lockfd}<> "${LOCKFILE}" || {
  echo "pid=$$ failed to open LOCKFILE='${LOCKFILE}'" 1>&2
  exit 1
}

# TODO!!!! undo/set the desired noclobber value for the remainder of the script
set +o noclobber

# Lock on the allocated file descriptor or fail
# Adjust flock options e.g. --noblock as needed
flock --exclusive --nonblock ${lockfd} || {
  echo "pid=$$ failed to obtain lock fd='${lockfd}' LOCKFILE='${LOCKFILE}'" 1>&2
  exit 1
}

# DO work here
echo "pid=$$ obtained exclusive lock fd='${lockfd}' LOCKFILE='${LOCKFILE}'"

# Can unlock after critical section and do more work after unlocking
#flock -u ${lockfd};
# if unlocking then might as well close lockfd too
#exec {lockfd}<&-

一些unix具有与前面提到的flock非常相似的lockfile。

从手册中:

Lockfile可以用来创建一个 或者更多的信号量文件。如果锁, 文件不能创建所有指定的 文件(在指定的顺序),它 等待睡眠时间(默认为8) 秒并重试最后一个文件 没有成功。您可以指定 直到重试的次数 返回失败。如果数字 重试次数为-1(默认值,即 -r-1)锁文件将永远重试。

如果flock的限制,这已经在这篇文章的其他地方描述过了,对你来说不是问题,那么这应该是有效的:

#!/bin/bash

{
    # exit if we are unable to obtain a lock; this would happen if 
    # the script is already running elsewhere
    # note: -x (exclusive) is the default
    flock -n 100 || exit

    # put commands to run here
    sleep 100
} 100>/tmp/myjob.lock 

实际上,尽管bmdhacks的答案几乎很好,但在第一次检查锁文件之后和在写入它之前,第二个脚本有轻微的机会运行。它们都将写入锁文件,它们都将运行。以下是如何确保它有效的方法:

lockfile=/var/lock/myscript.lock

if ( set -o noclobber; echo "$$" > "$lockfile") 2> /dev/null ; then
  trap 'rm -f "$lockfile"; exit $?' INT TERM EXIT
else
  # or you can decide to skip the "else" part if you want
  echo "Another instance is already running!"
fi

如果文件已经存在,noclobber选项将确保重定向命令将失败。因此,重定向命令实际上是原子的—您用一个命令写入和检查文件。你不需要在文件的末尾删除锁文件-它会被陷阱删除。我希望这对以后读到它的人有帮助。

另外,我没有看到Mikel已经正确地回答了这个问题,尽管他没有包括trap命令,以减少使用Ctrl-C停止脚本后留下锁文件的机会。这就是完整的解

这个我在任何地方都没有发现,它使用read,我不确切地知道read是否实际上是原子的,但到目前为止它对我来说很有用……它很有趣,因为它只是bash内置的,这是一个进程内实现,你启动locker协进程并使用它的I / O来管理锁,同样可以在进程间完成,只需将目标I / O从locker文件描述符交换到文件系统上的文件描述符(exec 3<>/file && exec 4</file)

## gives locks
locker() {
    locked=false
    while read l; do
        case "$l" in
            lock)
                if $locked; then
                    echo false
                else
                    locked=true
                    echo true
                fi
                ;;
            unlock)
                if $locked; then
                    locked=false
                    echo true
                else
                    echo false
                fi
                ;;
            *)
                echo false
                ;;
        esac
    done
}
## locks
lock() {
    local response
    echo lock >&${locker[1]}
    read -ru ${locker[0]} response
    $response && return 0 || return 1
}

## unlocks
unlock() {
    local response
    echo unlock >&${locker[1]}
    read -ru ${locker[0]} response
    $response && return 0 || return 1
}

在flock(2)系统调用周围有一个包装器,毫无想象力地称为flock(1)。这使得可靠地获得独占锁相对容易,而不必担心清理等问题。手册页上有一些关于如何在shell脚本中使用它的示例。
