Hi.. I am hoping someone could assist me with the pipe program I wrote below. I want to have communication from parent to child and then child to parent.. Is my logic right?

Hi Everyone,
The machine I'm working on is an AIX 5.3 LPAR running on a P650. oslevel -r shows 5300-08. I'm trying to take a backup to a SCSI tape drive, which has been working up until this point. I know of nothing that has changed recently to cause this problem. But when I try to take a... (0 Replies)

Dear all,
I use a pipe command to assign a variable:

$ echo "${v_LstStdCdhId}"

pipe2
PIPE(2) Linux Programmer's Manual PIPE(2)NAME
pipe, pipe2 - create pipe
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
int pipe(int pipefd[2]);
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <fcntl.h> /* Obtain O_* constant definitions */
#include <unistd.h>
int pipe2(int pipefd[2], int flags);
DESCRIPTION
pipe() creates a pipe, a unidirectional data channel that can be used for interprocess communication. The array pipefd is used to return
two file descriptors referring to the ends of the pipe. pipefd[0] refers to the read end of the pipe. pipefd[1] refers to the write end
of the pipe. Data written to the write end of the pipe is buffered by the kernel until it is read from the read end of the pipe. For fur-
ther details, see pipe(7).
If flags is 0, then pipe2() is the same as pipe(). The following values can be bitwise ORed in flags to obtain different behavior:
O_NONBLOCK Set the O_NONBLOCK file status flag on the two new open file descriptions. Using this flag saves extra calls to fcntl(2) to
achieve the same result.
O_CLOEXEC Set the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag on the two new file descriptors. See the description of the same flag in open(2) for
reasons why this may be useful.
RETURN VALUE
On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EFAULT pipefd is not valid.
EINVAL (pipe2()) Invalid value in flags.
EMFILE Too many file descriptors are in use by the process.
ENFILE The system limit on the total number of open files has been reached.
VERSIONS
pipe2() was added to Linux in version 2.6.27; glibc support is available starting with version 2.9.
CONFORMING TO
pipe(): POSIX.1-2001.
pipe2() is Linux-specific.
EXAMPLE
The following program creates a pipe, and then fork(2)s to create a child process; the child inherits a duplicate set of file descriptors
that refer to the same pipe. After the fork(2), each process closes the descriptors that it doesn't need for the pipe (see pipe(7)). The
parent then writes the string contained in the program's command-line argument to the pipe, and the child reads this string a byte at a
time from the pipe and echoes it on standard output.
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int pipefd[2];
pid_t cpid;
char buf;
if (argc != 2) {
fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s <string>
", argv[0]);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (pipe(pipefd) == -1) {
perror("pipe");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
cpid = fork();
if (cpid == -1) {
perror("fork");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (cpid == 0) { /* Child reads from pipe */
close(pipefd[1]); /* Close unused write end */
while (read(pipefd[0], &buf, 1) > 0)
write(STDOUT_FILENO, &buf, 1);
write(STDOUT_FILENO, "
", 1);
close(pipefd[0]);
_exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
} else { /* Parent writes argv[1] to pipe */
close(pipefd[0]); /* Close unused read end */
write(pipefd[1], argv[1], strlen(argv[1]));
close(pipefd[1]); /* Reader will see EOF */
wait(NULL); /* Wait for child */
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
}
