在进程运行结束后,我们会显示的调用exit()或者return退出正在运行的进程,如果调用return的话,编译器会自己加上exit().此时,保存子进程的一部份信息是很有必要的,因为父进程可以读取这些消息而取得子进程的退出状态.如果子进程退出.但父进程没有用wait(),这就成为了我们常说的僵尸进程,exit()系统调用在内核中的相应接口为sys_exit(),我们来跟踪一下,看下内核是如何处理这个过程的,

这个函数涉及到很多的子系统,我们暂时只分析跟内存相关的部份.do_exit()不参在中断上下文中使用,不能在0号进程中使用.因为这个函数很释放进程的所占用的空间.如果在中断或者是0号进程中删除进程的资源,将会造成灾难性的后果.
释放进程所占用的空间的操作是在exit_mm()中完成的.对应的代码如下所示:
static void exit_mm(struct task_struct * tsk)
{
struct mm_struct *mm = tsk->mm;
mm_release(tsk, mm);
if (!mm)
return;
down_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
if (mm->core_waiters) {
up_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
down_write(&mm->mmap_sem);
if (!--mm->core_waiters)
complete(mm->core_startup_done);
up_write(&mm->mmap_sem);
wait_for_completion(&mm->core_done);
down_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
}
atomic_inc(&mm->mm_count);
BUG_ON(mm != tsk->active_mm);
/* more a memory barrier than a real lock */
task_lock(tsk);
tsk->mm = NULL;
up_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
enter_lazy_tlb(mm, current);
/* We don't want this task to be frozen prematurely */
clear_freeze_flag(tsk);
task_unlock(tsk);
mmput(mm);
}
mm_release()在之前已经分析过.它的作用是在定义了CLONE_VFORK的情况下,唤醒父进程.因为此时子进程不再需要使用内核栈堆了,父进程可以自由的从系统调用中返回.另外一个重要的子函数是mmput().它释放进程的VMA结构和所映射的页面.我们在之前内存管理部份已经分析过了,在这里不再赘述.
另外，在进程退出之前，要另找一个进程管理他的子进程，而且，进程在退出的时候，必须向其父进程发送相关信号。这个操作是在exit_notify()完成的。代码如下：
static void exit_notify(struct task_struct *tsk)
{
int state;
struct task_struct *t;
struct pid *pgrp;
if (signal_pending(tsk) && !(tsk->signal->flags & SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT)
&& !thread_group_empty(tsk)) {
/*
* This occurs when there was a race between our exit
* syscall and a group signal choosing us as the one to
* wake up. It could be that we are the only thread
* alerted to check for pending signals, but another thread
* should be woken now to take the signal since we will not.
* Now we'll wake all the threads in the group just to make
* sure someone gets all the pending signals.
*/
spin_lock_irq(&tsk->sighand->siglock);
for (t = next_thread(tsk); t != tsk; t = next_thread(t))
if (!signal_pending(t) && !(t->flags & PF_EXITING))
recalc_sigpending_and_wake(t);
spin_unlock_irq(&tsk->sighand->siglock);
}
/*

*
* A. Make init inherit all the child processes
* B. Check to see if any process groups have become orphaned
* as a result of our exiting, and if they have any stopped
* jobs, send them a SIGHUP and then a SIGCONT. (POSIX 3.2.2.2)
*/
//更新进程下面的所有子进程的父子关系
//即为其子进程委派一个新的父进程
forget_original_parent(tsk);
exit_task_namespaces(tsk);
write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock);
/*

*/
//检查是否会因为进程退出造成孤儿进程的情况
//按照POSIX 3.2.2.2标准. 如果孤儿进程组中有终止了的任务.必须要整个

}
forget_original_parent（）是其中比较重要的操作，重点分析一下：
static void forget_original_parent(struct task_struct *father)
{
struct task_struct *p, *n, *reaper = father;
struct list_head ptrace_dead;
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&ptrace_dead);

reaper = task_child_reaper(father);
break;
}
} while (reaper->flags & PF_EXITING);
/*

int ptrace;
ptrace = p->ptrace;

} else {

do_notify_parent(p, p->exit_signal);
}
/*

*/
// 如果子进程为僵尸状态,且退出时不给父进程信号

这个函数比较简单。转入reparent_thread():

remove_parent(p);
p->parent = p->real_parent;
add_parent(p);
if (p->state == TASK_TRACED) {

__kill_pgrp_info(SIGCONT, SEND_SIG_PRIV, pgrp);
}
}
}
在这里，有必要了解一下什么叫孤儿进程。下面的内容摘自《Unix高级环境编程》：
1：
每个进程组有一个组长进程。组长进程的标识是，其进程组I D等于其进程I D。
进程组组长可以创建一个进程组，创建该组中的进程，然后终止。只要在某个进程组中有
一个进程存在，则该进程组就存在，这与其组长进程是否终止无关。从进程组创建开始到其中
最后一个进程离开为止的时间区间称为进程组的生命期。某个进程组中的最后一个进程可以终
止，也可以参加另一个进程组。
进程调用s e t p g i d可以参加一个现存的组或者创建一个新进程组(下一节中将说明用s e t s i d也
可以创建一个新的进程组)。
2：
对话期（s e s s i o n）是一个或多个进程组的集合。进程调用s e t s i d函数就可建立一个新对话期。进程调用s e t s i d函数就可建立一个新对话期。
#include
#include
pid_t setsid(void);
返回：若成功则为进程组I D，若出错则为-1
如果调用此函数的进程不是一个进程组的组长，则此函数创建一个新对话期，结果为：
(1) 此进程变成该新对话期的对话期首进程（ session leader，对话期首进程是创建该对话期
的进程）。此进程是该新对话期中的唯一进程。
(2) 此进程成为一个新进程组的组长进程。新进程组I D是此调用进程的进程I D。
(3) 此进程没有控制终端（下一节讨论控制终端）。如果在调用s e t s i d之前此进程有一个控
制终端，那么这种联系也被解除。
如果此调用进程已经是一个进程组的组长，则此函数返回出错。为了保证不处于这种情况，
通常先调用fork，然后使其父进程终止，而子进程则继续。因为子进程继承了父进程的进程组ID，
而其进程ID则是新分配的，两者不可能相等，所以这就保证了子进程不是一个进程组的组长。
3：
P O S I X . 1将孤儿进程组（ orphaned processg r o u p）定义为：该组中每个成员的父进程或者是该组的一个成员，或者不是该组所属对话期的成员。对孤儿进程组的另一种描述可以是：一个进程组不是孤儿进程组的条件是：该组中有一个进程，其父进程在属于同一对话期的另一个组中。如果进程组不是孤儿进程组，那么在属于同一对话期的另一个组中的父进程就有机会重新起动该组中停止的进程。
在这段代码中，我们首次见到了release_task().这个函数在进程子系统中经常见到，分析如下：
void release_task(struct task_struct * p)
{
struct task_struct *leader;
int zap_leader;
repeat:
//减少用户的进程计数
atomic_dec(&p->user->processes);
proc_flush_task(p);
write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock);
//断开跟踪关系,设置进程父进程为生父进程
ptrace_unlink(p);
BUG_ON(!list_empty(&p->ptrace_list) || !list_empty(&p->ptrace_children));
__exit_signal(p);
/*
* If we are the last non-leader member of the thread
* group, and the leader is zombie, then notify the
* group leader's parent process. (if it wants notification.)
*/
zap_leader = 0;
leader = p->group_leader;
if (leader != p && thread_group_empty(leader) && leader->exit_state == EXIT_ZOMBIE) {
//进程为僵尸进程的话,它退出时肯定会向父进程发送信号的
BUG_ON(leader->exit_signal == -1);
//向父进程发送相关信号
do_notify_parent(leader, leader->exit_signal);
/*
* If we were the last child thread and the leader has
* exited already, and the leader's parent ignores SIGCHLD,
* then we are the one who should release the leader.
*
* do_notify_parent() will have marked it self-reaping in
* that case.
*/
zap_leader = (leader->exit_signal == -1);
}
write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock);
release_thread(p);
//释放进程task 与内核堆栈
call_rcu(&p->rcu, delayed_put_task_struct);
p = leader;
if (unlikely(zap_leader))
goto repeat;
}
delayed_put_task_struct的定义如下：
static void delayed_put_task_struct(struct rcu_head *rhp)
{
put_task_struct(container_of(rhp, struct task_struct, rcu));
}
继续跟踪put_task_struct():
static inline void put_task_struct(struct task_struct *t)
{
//判断引用计数
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&t->usage))
//引用计数为零，可以释放了
__put_task_struct(t);
}
_put_task_struct() àfree_task():
void free_task(struct task_struct *tsk)
{
prop_local_destroy_single(&tsk->dirties);
//释放thread_info
free_thread_info(tsk->stack);
rt_mutex_debug_task_free(tsk);
//释放task_struct
free_task_struct(tsk);
}
如果进程状态不是为僵尸状态的话。在这里就会被全部释放掉。
另外，我们在exit_notify()中可以看到对于没有定义进程结束发送信号标志的进程的处理
static void exit_notify(struct task_struct *tsk)
{
。。。。。。
if (state == EXIT_DEAD)
release_task(tsk);
}
这样，它不需要等到父进程调用wait()就直接退出了.
