原理
Linux为每个进程提供3种定时器:
-
ITIMER_REAL: 以系统真实的时间来计算,它送出SIGALRM信号。
-
ITIMER_VIRTUAL: 以该进程在用户态下花费的时间来计算,它送出SIGVTALRM信号。
-
ITIMER_PROF: 以该进程在用户态下和内核态下所费的时间来计算,它送出SIGPROF信号。
其通过setitimer来初始化:
<span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">int</span> sigaction<span class="br0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">(</span><span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">int</span> signum<span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">,</span><span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">const</span> <span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">struct</span> sigaction <span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">*</span>act <span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">,</span><span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">struct</span> sigaction <span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">*</span>oldact<span class="br0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">)</span><span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">;</span>
设置定时器后在当前进程终止前每隔固定时间都会发送相应的信号。
此时我们通过sigaction来接收相应信号并处理相应逻辑:
<span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">int</span> sigaction<span class="br0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">(</span><span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">int</span> signum<span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">,</span><span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">const</span> <span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">struct</span> sigaction <span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">*</span>act <span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">,</span><span class="kw4" style="color: rgb(153, 51, 51);">struct</span> sigaction <span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">*</span>oldact<span class="br0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">)</span><span class="sy0" style="color: rgb(102, 204, 102);">;</span>
Demo
如下举例说明如何使用Linux定时器定时输出一段文本:
