Pipa, dup2 dan exec()

Anda harus menutup semua deskriptor pipa di proses induk dan proses anak (setelah duplikasi dalam proses anak). Dalam kode Anda, masalah utamanya adalah, wc proses tidak keluar karena masih ada penulis (karena proses induk belum menutup akhir penulisan). Perubahan ditunjukkan di bawah ini. Saya juga menambahkan waitpid dalam proses induk untuk menunggu wc proses.

pid_t pid;
int fd[2];

pipe(fd);
pid = fork();

if(pid==0)
{
    dup2(fd[WRITE_END], STDOUT_FILENO);
    close(fd[READ_END]);
    close(fd[WRITE_END]);
    execlp(firstcmd, firstcmd, frsarg, (char*) NULL);
    fprintf(stderr, "Failed to execute '%s'\n", firstcmd);
    exit(1);
}
else
{ 
    pid=fork();

    if(pid==0)
    {
        dup2(fd[READ_END], STDIN_FILENO);
        close(fd[WRITE_END]);
        close(fd[READ_END]);
        execlp(scmd, scmd, secarg,(char*) NULL);
        fprintf(stderr, "Failed to execute '%s'\n", scmd);
        exit(1);
    }
    else
    {
        int status;
        close(fd[READ_END]);
        close(fd[WRITE_END]);
        waitpid(pid, &status, 0);
    }
}

Hm, cukup dekat. Anda ketinggalan untuk menangani close pada beberapa deskriptor file setelah fork.

Berikut ini beberapa referensi:
