另一种方法是将列表列表传递给单参数例程：

import os
from multiprocessing import Pool

def task(args):
    print "PID =", os.getpid(), ", arg1 =", args[0], ", arg2 =", args[1]

pool = Pool()

pool.map(task, [
        [1,2],
        [3,4],
        [5,6],
        [7,8]
    ])

然后可以用自己喜欢的方法构造一个参数列表。

在官方文档中，它只支持一个可迭代的参数。在这种情况下，我喜欢使用apply_async。如果是你，我会：

from multiprocessing import Process, Pool, Manager

text = "test"
def harvester(text, case, q = None):
 X = case[0]
 res = text+ str(X)
 if q:
  q.put(res)
 return res


def block_until(q, results_queue, until_counter=0):
 i = 0
 while i < until_counter:
  results_queue.put(q.get())
  i+=1

if __name__ == '__main__':
 pool = multiprocessing.Pool(processes=6)
 case = RAW_DATASET
 m = Manager()
 q = m.Queue()
 results_queue = m.Queue() # when it completes results will reside in this queue
 blocking_process = Process(block_until, (q, results_queue, len(case)))
 blocking_process.start()
 for c in case:
  try:
   res = pool.apply_async(harvester, (text, case, q = None))
   res.get(timeout=0.1)
  except:
   pass
 blocking_process.join()

Python 2的更好解决方案：

from multiprocessing import Pool
def func((i, (a, b))):
    print i, a, b
    return a + b
pool = Pool(3)
pool.map(func, [(0,(1,2)), (1,(2,3)), (2,(3, 4))])

输出

2 3 4

1 2 3

0 1 2

out[]:

[3, 5, 7]

答案取决于版本和情况。最近版本的Python（从3.3开始）的最一般的答案首先由J.F.Sebastian在下面描述。1它使用Pool.starmap方法，接受一系列参数元组。然后，它会自动将每个元组中的参数解包，并将它们传递给给定的函数：

import multiprocessing
from itertools import product

def merge_names(a, b):
    return '{} & {}'.format(a, b)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    names = ['Brown', 'Wilson', 'Bartlett', 'Rivera', 'Molloy', 'Opie']
    with multiprocessing.Pool(processes=3) as pool:
        results = pool.starmap(merge_names, product(names, repeat=2))
    print(results)

# Output: ['Brown & Brown', 'Brown & Wilson', 'Brown & Bartlett', ...

对于早期版本的Python，您需要编写一个助手函数来显式地解包参数。如果要与一起使用，还需要编写一个包装器，将Pool转换为上下文管理器。（感谢穆恩指出了这一点。）

import multiprocessing
from itertools import product
from contextlib import contextmanager

def merge_names(a, b):
    return '{} & {}'.format(a, b)

def merge_names_unpack(args):
    return merge_names(*args)

@contextmanager
def poolcontext(*args, **kwargs):
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(*args, **kwargs)
    yield pool
    pool.terminate()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    names = ['Brown', 'Wilson', 'Bartlett', 'Rivera', 'Molloy', 'Opie']
    with poolcontext(processes=3) as pool:
        results = pool.map(merge_names_unpack, product(names, repeat=2))
    print(results)

# Output: ['Brown & Brown', 'Brown & Wilson', 'Brown & Bartlett', ...

在更简单的情况下，使用固定的第二个参数，也可以使用partial，但仅在Python 2.7+中使用。

import multiprocessing
from functools import partial
from contextlib import contextmanager

@contextmanager
def poolcontext(*args, **kwargs):
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(*args, **kwargs)
    yield pool
    pool.terminate()

def merge_names(a, b):
    return '{} & {}'.format(a, b)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    names = ['Brown', 'Wilson', 'Bartlett', 'Rivera', 'Molloy', 'Opie']
    with poolcontext(processes=3) as pool:
        results = pool.map(partial(merge_names, b='Sons'), names)
    print(results)

# Output: ['Brown & Sons', 'Wilson & Sons', 'Bartlett & Sons', ...

1.这大部分都是由他的答案激发的，而他的答案很可能应该被接受。但由于这本书一直停留在顶端，似乎最好为未来读者改进它。

pool.map是否有支持多个参数的变体？

Python 3.3包含pool.starmap（）方法：

#!/usr/bin/env python3
from functools import partial
from itertools import repeat
from multiprocessing import Pool, freeze_support

def func(a, b):
    return a + b

def main():
    a_args = [1,2,3]
    second_arg = 1
    with Pool() as pool:
        L = pool.starmap(func, [(1, 1), (2, 1), (3, 1)])
        M = pool.starmap(func, zip(a_args, repeat(second_arg)))
        N = pool.map(partial(func, b=second_arg), a_args)
        assert L == M == N

if __name__=="__main__":
    freeze_support()
    main()

对于旧版本：

#!/usr/bin/env python2
import itertools
from multiprocessing import Pool, freeze_support

def func(a, b):
    print a, b

def func_star(a_b):
    """Convert `f([1,2])` to `f(1,2)` call."""
    return func(*a_b)

def main():
    pool = Pool()
    a_args = [1,2,3]
    second_arg = 1
    pool.map(func_star, itertools.izip(a_args, itertools.repeat(second_arg)))

if __name__=="__main__":
    freeze_support()
    main()

输出

1 1
2 1
3 1

注意这里是如何使用itertools.izip（）和itertools.crepeat（）的。

由于@unsubu提到的错误，您不能在Python 2.6上使用functools.partial（）或类似功能，因此应该显式定义简单包装函数func_tar（）。另请参阅uptimebox建议的解决方法。

从Python 3.4.4中，您可以使用multiprocessing.get_context（）获取上下文对象，以使用多个启动方法：

import multiprocessing as mp

def foo(q, h, w):
    q.put(h + ' ' + w)
    print(h + ' ' + w)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    ctx = mp.get_context('spawn')
    q = ctx.Queue()
    p = ctx.Process(target=foo, args=(q,'hello', 'world'))
    p.start()
    print(q.get())
    p.join()

或者你只是简单地替换

pool.map(harvester(text, case), case, 1)

具有：

pool.apply_async(harvester(text, case), case, 1)
