python多线程编程4: 死锁和可重入锁
死锁
在线程间共享多个资源的时候,假如两个线程别离占有一部门资源而且同时期待对方的资源,就会造成死锁。尽量死锁很少产生,但一旦产生就会造成应用的遏制响应。下面看一个死锁的例子:
# encoding: UTF-8 import threading import time class MyThread(threading.Thread): def do1(self): global resA, resB if mutexA.acquire(): msg = self.name+' got resA' print msg if mutexB.acquire(1): msg = self.name+' got resB' print msg mutexB.release() mutexA.release() def do2(self): global resA, resB if mutexB.acquire(): msg = self.name+' got resB' print msg if mutexA.acquire(1): msg = self.name+' got resA' print msg mutexA.release() mutexB.release() def run(self): self.do1() self.do2() resA = 0 resB = 0 mutexA = threading.Lock() mutexB = threading.Lock() def test(): for i in range(5): t = MyThread() t.start() if __name__ == '__main__': test()
执行功效:
Thread-1 got resA
Thread-1 got resB
Thread-1 got resB
Thread-1 got resA
Thread-2 got resA
Thread-2 got resB
Thread-2 got resB
Thread-2 got resA
Thread-3 got resA
Thread-3 got resB
Thread-3 got resB
Thread-3 got resA
Thread-5 got resA
Thread-5 got resB
Thread-5 got resB
Thread-4 got resA
此时历程已经死掉。
可重入锁
更简朴的死锁环境是一个线程“迭代”请求同一个资源,直接就会造成死锁:
import threading import time class MyThread(threading.Thread): def run(self): global num time.sleep(1) if mutex.acquire(1): num = num+1 msg = self.name+' set num to '+str(num) print msg mutex.acquire() mutex.release() mutex.release() num = 0 mutex = threading.Lock() def test(): for i in range(5): t = MyThread() t.start() if __name__ == '__main__': test()
为了支持在同一线程中多次请求同一资源,python提供了“可重入锁”:threading.RLock。RLock内部维护着一个Lock和一个counter变量,counter记录了acquire的次数,从而使得资源可以被多次require。直到一个线程所有的acquire都被release,其他的线程才气得到资源。上面的例子假如利用RLock取代Lock,则不会发存亡锁:
import threading import time class MyThread(threading.Thread): def run(self): global num time.sleep(1) if mutex.acquire(1): num = num+1 msg = self.name+' set num to '+str(num) print msg mutex.acquire() mutex.release() mutex.release() num = 0 mutex = threading.RLock() def test(): for i in range(5): t = MyThread() t.start() if __name__ == '__main__': test()
执行功效:
Thread-1 set num to 1
Thread-3 set num to 2
Thread-2 set num to 3
Thread-5 set num to 4
Thread-4 set num to 5
