第五部分 进阶话题 - 32 调试
调试代码要比写代码困难两倍。因此,你写代码时越多的使用奇技淫巧(自做聪明),顾名思义,你越难以调试它。 —Brian Kernighan
Bash shell中不包含内置的debug工具,甚至没有调试专用的命令和结构。当调试非功能脚本,产生语法错误或者有错别字时,往往是无用的错误提示消息。
例子 32-1. 一个错误脚本
#!/bin/bash
# ex74.sh
# 这是一个错误脚本,但是它错在哪?
a=37
if [$a -gt 27 ]
then
echo $a
fi
exit $? # 0! 为什么?
脚本的输出:
./ex74.sh: [37: command not found
上边的脚本究竟哪错了(提示: 注意if的后边)
例子 32-2. 缺少关键字
#!/bin/bash
# missing-keyword.sh
# 这个脚本会提示什么错误信息?
for a in 1 2 3
do
echo "$a"
# done #所需关键字'done'在第8行被注释掉.
exit 0 # 将不会在这退出!
#在命令行执行完此脚本后
输入:echo $?
输出:2
脚本的输出:
missing-keyword.sh: line 10: syntax error: unexpected end of file
注意, 其实不必参考错误信息中指出的错误行号. 这行只不过是Bash解释器最终认定错误的地方.
出错信息在报告产生语法错误的行号时, 可能会忽略脚本的注释行.
如果脚本可以执行, 但并不如你所期望的那样工作, 怎么办? 通常情况下, 这都是由常见的逻辑错误所
产生的.
例子 32-3.
#!/bin/bash
# 这个脚本应该删除在当前目录下所有文件名中含有空格的文件
# 它不能正常运行,为什么?
badname=`ls | grep ' '`
# Try this:
# echo "$badname"
rm "$badname"
exit 0
可以通过把echo “$badname”行的注释符去掉,找出例子 29-3中的错误, 看一下echo出来的信息,是否按你期望的方式运行.
在这种特殊的情况下,rm “$badname”不能得到预期的结果,因为$badname不应该加双引号。加上双引号会让rm只有一个参数(这就只能匹配一个文件名).一种不完善的解决办法是去掉$badname外 面的引号, 并且重新设置$IFS, 让$IFS只包含一个换行符, IFS=$’n’. 但是, 下面这个方法更简单.
# 删除包含空格的文件的正确方法.
rm * *
rm *" "*
rm *' '*
# 感谢. S.C.
总结一下这个问题脚本的症状:
>
- 由于”syntax error”(语法错误)使得脚本停止运行,
- 或者脚本能够运行, 但是并不是按照我们所期望的那样运行(逻辑错误).
- 脚本能够按照我们所期望的那样运行, 但是有烦人的副作用(逻辑炸弹).
如果想调试脚本, 可以用以下方式:
echo语句可以放在脚本中存在疑问的位置上, 观察变量的值, 来了解脚本运行时的情况.
### debecho (debug-echo), by Stefano Falsetto ###
### Will echo passed parameters only if DEBUG is set to a value. ###
debecho () {
if [ ! -z "$DEBUG" ]; then
echo "$1" >&2
# ^^^ to stderr
fi
}
DEBUG=on
Whatever=whatnot
debecho $Whatever # whatnot
DEBUG=
Whatever=notwhat
debecho $Whatever # (Will not echo.)
- 使用过滤器tee来检查临界点上的进程或数据流.
设置选项-n -v -x
sh -n scriptname不会运行脚本, 只会检查脚本的语法错误. 这等价于把set -n或set -o noexec插入脚本中. 注意, 某些类型的语法错误不会被这种方式检查出来.
sh -v scriptname将会在运行脚本之前, 打印出每一个命令. 这等价于把set -v或set -o verbose插入到脚本中.
选项-n和-v可以同时使用. sh -nv scriptname将会给出详细的语法检查.
sh -x scriptname会打印出每个命令执行的结果, 但只使用缩写形式. 这等价于在脚本中插入set
-x或set -o xtrace.把set -u或set -o nounset插入到脚本中, 并运行它, 就会在每个试图使用未声明变量的地方给出一个unbound variable错误信息.
set -u # Or set -o nounset
# Setting a variable to null will not trigger the error/abort.
# unset_var=
echo $unset_var # Unset (and undeclared) variable.
echo "Should not echo!"
#sh t2.sh
#t2.sh: line 6: unset_var: unbound variable
使用“断言”功能在脚本的关键点进行测试的变量或条件。 (这是从C借来的一个想法)
Example 32-4. Testing a condition with an assert
```
!/bin/bash
assert.sh
#
assert () # If condition false,
{ #+ exit from script#+ with appropriate error message.
E_PARAM_ERR=98
E_ASSERT_FAILED=99
if [ -z "$2" ] # Not enough parameters passed
then #+ to assert() function.
return $E_PARAM_ERR # No damage done.
fi
lineno=$2
if [ ! $1 ]
then
echo "Assertion failed: "$1""
echo "File "$0", line $lineno" # Give name of file and line number.
exit $E_ASSERT_FAILED
# else
# return
# and continue executing the script.
fi
} # Insert a similar assert() function into a script you need to debug.
#######################################################################
a=5
b=4
condition="$a -lt $b" # Error message and exit from script.
# Try setting "condition" to something else
#+ and see what happens.
assert "$condition" $LINENO
# The remainder of the script executes only if the "assert" does not fail.
# Some commands.
# Some more commands . . .
echo "This statement echoes only if the "assert" does not fail."
# . . .
# More commands . . .
exit $?
```
使用变量$LINENO和内建命令caller.
捕获exit返回值.
The exit command in a script triggers a signal 0, terminating the process, that is, the script itself. [1] It is often useful to trap the exit, forcing a “printout” of variables, for example. The trap must be the first command in the script.
捕获信号
trap
Specifies an action on receipt of a signal; also useful for debugging.
A signal is a message sent to a process, either by the kernel or another process, telling it to take some specified action (usually to terminate). For example, hitting a Control-C sends a user interrupt, an INT signal, to a running program.
A simple instance:
trap '' 2
# Ignore interrupt 2 (Control-C), with no action specified.
trap 'echo "Control-C disabled."' 2
# Message when Control-C pressed.
Example 32-5. Trapping at exit
#!/bin/bash
# Hunting variables with a trap.
trap 'echo Variable Listing --- a = $a b = $b' EXIT
# EXIT is the name of the signal generated upon exit from a script.
#
# The command specified by the "trap" doesn't execute until
#+ the appropriate signal is sent.
echo "This prints before the "trap" --"
echo "even though the script sees the "trap" first."
echo
a=39
b=36
exit 0
# Note that commenting out the 'exit' command makes no difference,
#+ since the script exits in any case after running out of commands.
Example 32-6. Cleaning up after Control-C
#!/bin/bash
# logon.sh: A quick 'n dirty script to check whether you are on-line yet.
umask 177 # Make sure temp files are not world readable.
TRUE=1
LOGFILE=/var/log/messages
# Note that $LOGFILE must be readable
#+ (as root, chmod 644 /var/log/messages).
TEMPFILE=temp.$$
# Create a "unique" temp file name, using process id of the script.
# Using 'mktemp' is an alternative.
# For example:
# TEMPFILE=`mktemp temp.XXXXXX`
KEYWORD=address
# At logon, the line "remote IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
# appended to /var/log/messages.
ONLINE=22
USER_INTERRUPT=13
CHECK_LINES=100
# How many lines in log file to check.
trap 'rm -f $TEMPFILE; exit $USER_INTERRUPT' TERM INT
# Cleans up the temp file if script interrupted by control-c.
echo
while [ $TRUE ] #Endless loop.
do
tail -n $CHECK_LINES $LOGFILE> $TEMPFILE
# Saves last 100 lines of system log file as temp file.
# Necessary, since newer kernels generate many log messages at log on.
search=`grep $KEYWORD $TEMPFILE`
# Checks for presence of the "IP address" phrase,
#+ indicating a successful logon.
if [ ! -z "$search" ] # Quotes necessary because of possible spaces.
then
echo "On-line"
rm -f $TEMPFILE # Clean up temp file.
exit $ONLINE
else
echo -n "." # The -n option to echo suppresses newline,
#+ so you get continuous rows of dots.
fi
sleep 1
done
# Note: if you change the KEYWORD variable to "Exit",
#+ this script can be used while on-line
#+ to check for an unexpected logoff.
# Exercise: Change the script, per the above note,
# and prettify it.
exit 0
# Nick Drage suggests an alternate method:
while true
do ifconfig ppp0 | grep UP 1> /dev/null && echo "connected" && exit 0
echo -n "." # Prints dots (.....) until connected.
sleep 2
done
# Problem: Hitting Control-C to terminate this process may be insufficient.
#+ (Dots may keep on echoing.)
# Exercise: Fix this.
# Stephane Chazelas has yet another alternative:
CHECK_INTERVAL=1
while ! tail -n 1 "$LOGFILE" | grep -q "$KEYWORD"
do echo -n .
sleep $CHECK_INTERVAL
done
echo "On-line"
# Exercise: Discuss the relative strengths and weaknesses
# of each of these various approaches.
Example 32-7. A Simple Implementation of a Progress Bar
#! /bin/bash
# progress-bar2.sh
# Author: Graham Ewart (with reformatting by ABS Guide author).
# Used in ABS Guide with permission (thanks!).
# Invoke this script with bash. It doesn't work with sh.
interval=1
long_interval=10
{
trap "exit" SIGUSR1
sleep $interval; sleep $interval
while true
do
echo -n '.' # Use dots.
sleep $interval
done; } & # Start a progress bar as a background process.
pid=$!
trap "echo !; kill -USR1 $pid; wait $pid" EXIT # To handle ^C.
echo -n 'Long-running process '
sleep $long_interval
echo ' Finished!'
kill -USR1 $pid
wait $pid # Stop the progress bar.
trap EXIT
exit $?
Note
The DEBUG argument to trap causes a specified action to execute after every command in a script. This permits tracing variables, for example.
Example 32-8. Tracing a variable
#!/bin/bash
trap 'echo "VARIABLE-TRACE> $variable = "$variable""' DEBUG
# Echoes the value of $variable after every command.
variable=29; line=$LINENO
echo " Just initialized $variable to $variable in line number $line."
let "variable *= 3"; line=$LINENO
echo " Just multiplied $variable by 3 in line number $line."
exit 0
# The "trap 'command1 . . . command2 . . .' DEBUG" construct is
#+ more appropriate in the context of a complex script,
#+ where inserting multiple "echo $variable" statements might be
#+ awkward and time-consuming.
# Thanks, Stephane Chazelas for the pointer.
Output of script:
VARIABLE-TRACE> $variable = “”
VARIABLE-TRACE> $variable = “29”
Just initialized $variable to 29.
VARIABLE-TRACE> $variable = “29”
VARIABLE-TRACE> $variable = “87”
Just multiplied $variable by 3.
VARIABLE-TRACE> $variable = “87”
Of course, the trap command has other uses aside from debugging, such as disabling certain keystrokes within a script (see Example A-43).
Example 32-9. Running multiple processes (on an SMP box)
#!/bin/bash
# parent.sh
# Running multiple processes on an SMP box.
# Author: Tedman Eng
# This is the first of two scripts,
#+ both of which must be present in the current working directory.
LIMIT=$1 # Total number of process to start
NUMPROC=4 # Number of concurrent threads (forks?)
PROCID=1 # Starting Process ID

function start_thread() {
if [ $PROCID -le $LIMIT ] ; then

shift
let "temp %= 5"
let "temp += 4"
echo "Starting $index Time:$temp" "$@"
sleep ${temp}
echo "Ending $index"
kill -s SIGRTMIN $PPID
exit 0
# ======================= SCRIPT AUTHOR'S NOTES ======================= #
# It's not completely bug free.
# I ran it with limit = 500 and after the first few hundred iterations,
#+ one of the concurrent threads disappeared!
# Not sure if this is collisions from trap signals or something else.
# Once the trap is received, there's a brief moment while executing the
#+ trap handler but before the next trap is set. During this time, it may
#+ be possible to miss a trap signal, thus miss spawning a child process.
# No doubt someone may spot the bug and will be writing
#+ . . . in the future.

: <<SCRIPT_AUTHOR_COMMENTS
I had the need to run a program, with specified options, on a number of
different files, using a SMP machine. So I thought [I'd] keep running
a specified number of processes and start a new one each time . . . one
of these terminates.
The "wait" instruction does not help, since it waits for a given process
or *all* process started in background. So I wrote [this] bash script
that can do the job, using the "trap" instruction.

Note
trap ‘’ SIGNAL (two adjacent apostrophes) disables SIGNAL for the remainder of the script. trap SIGNAL restores the functioning of SIGNAL once more. This is useful to protect a critical portion of a script from an undesirable interrupt.
