Valgrind的多线程调试工具
Helgrind是Valgrind的一个重点功能 本节主要针对与多线程基本安全问题进行检测:【所有的代码环境都是在POSIX_THREAD模式下】
写线程代码时 经常碰到如下问题
1) 资源不安全访问 【就是多个线程在没有同步的情况下写某个资源体】
2) 死锁问题
3) POSIX pthreads API的错误使用
4) 在前面几个基础上都能安全无误的情况下 多于多线程程序就是要能够能好将同步块尽量缩到最小 【这是一个很大的课题】
解决问题:
?问题1: 调用Helgrind能够很好的解决掉 已基本例子为例:
?
#include <pthread.h>
int var = 0;
void* child_fn ( void* arg ) {
var++;
return NULL;
}
int main ( void ) {
pthread_t child;
pthread_t child2;
pthread_create(&child,NULL, child_fn, NULL);
pthread_create(&child2,NULL,child_fn,NULL);
pthread_join(child,NULL);
pthread_join(child2,NULL);
return 0;
}
明显var是共享的 不安全访问,调用Helgrind看看怎么能够检测出来
gcc -g thread_helgrind.c -o thread_helgrind -lpthread
valgrind --tool=helgrind ./thread_helgrind
可以看出valgrind弹出如下输出信息:

可以看出绿色就显示的data_race错误 可以直接定位到var前后没有locks/
问题2:
?死锁问题是尽量避免 对于helgrind可以检测出加锁解锁顺序出现问题导致的死锁问题 这个问题我们可以好好看下:
?首先 看下一个正常的程序
?
#include <pthread.h>
pthread_mutex_t mut_thread;
int var = 0;
void* child_fn ( void* arg ) {
pthread_mutex_lock(&mut_thread);
var++;
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mut_thread);
return NULL;
}
int main ( void ) {
pthread_t child;
pthread_t child2;
pthread_mutex_init(&mut_thread,NULL);
pthread_create(&child,NULL, child_fn, NULL);
pthread_create(&child2,NULL,child_fn,NULL);
pthread_join(child,NULL);
pthread_join(child2,NULL);
return 0;
}
正常加锁解锁 没有问题
在看下连续加2次锁的情况:
#include <pthread.h>
pthread_mutex_t mut_thread;
int var = 0;
void* child_fn ( void* arg ) {
pthread_mutex_lock(&mut_thread);
var++;
pthread_mutex_lock(&mut_thread);
return NULL;
}
int main ( void ) {
pthread_t child;
pthread_t child2;
pthread_mutex_init(&mut_thread,NULL);
pthread_create(&child,NULL, child_fn, NULL);
pthread_create(&child2,NULL,child_fn,NULL);
pthread_join(child,NULL);
pthread_join(child2,NULL);
return 0;
}
看下这个helgrind打印出来的东西 【当然要杀死 不然会一直卡在那里动都不动一下】

Lock was previously acquired 对于自身线程来讲 这样的做法明显出问题 它自身还在尝试获取这个lock 这样就导致死锁的发生。可以定位到==26534== by 0x80485C6: child_fn (deadlock_helgrind.c:14)出问题了 所以这个helgrind解决这类问题时还是非常的厉害的~!
接下来看一个2 mutex导致的问题:
#include <pthread.h>
pthread_mutex_t mut_thread;
pthread_mutex_t mut_thread1;
int var = 0;
void* child_fn ( void* arg ) {
pthread_mutex_lock(&mut_thread);
pthread_mutex_lock(&mut_thread1);
var++;
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mut_thread);
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mut_thread1);
return NULL;
}
void* child_fn1(void *arg)
{
pthread_mutex_lock(&mut_thread1);
pthread_mutex_lock(&mut_thread);
var++;
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mut_thread1);
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mut_thread);
return NULL;
}
int main ( void ) {
pthread_t child;
pthread_t child2;
pthread_mutex_init(&mut_thread,NULL);
pthread_mutex_init(&mut_thread1,NULL);
pthread_create(&child,NULL, child_fn, NULL);
pthread_create(&child2,NULL,child_fn1,NULL);
pthread_join(child,NULL);
pthread_join(child2,NULL);
return 0;
}

这是观察法得出的 加锁顺序出错导致了这种情况的发生。
posix_thread erro这里就不列举了 这个完全是看基础。
