【中文标题】Pybind11 多处理挂起【英文标题】:Pybind11 multiprocessing hangs 【发布时间】:2020-06-05 06:54:09 【问题描述】:

我正在编写一个使用 Pybind11 嵌入 Python 解释器的应用程序(Windows,64 位,Visual C++ 2017)。从 Python 中,我需要生成多个进程,但它似乎不起作用。我尝试以下代码作为测试:

import multiprocessing
import os
import sys
import time
print("This is the name of the script: ", sys.argv[0])
print("Number of arguments: ", len(sys.argv))
print("The arguments are: " , str(sys.argv))
prefix=str(os.getpid())+"-"
if len(sys.argv) > 1:
    __name__ = "__mp_main__"

def print_cube(num):
    """
    function to print cube of given num
    """
    print("Cube: ".format(num * num * num))

def print_square(num):
    """
    function to print square of given num
    """
    print("Square: ".format(num * num))

print(__name__)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 1")
    # creating processes
    p1 = multiprocessing.Process(target=print_square, args=(10, ))
    p1.daemon = True
    p2 = multiprocessing.Process(target=print_cube, args=(10, ))

    # starting process 1
    p1.start()
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 2")

    # starting process 2
    p2.start()
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 3")

    # wait until process 1 is finished
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 4")
    p1.join()
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 5")
    # wait until process 2 is finished
    p2.join()
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 6")

    # both processes finished
    print("Done!")
print(prefix, "checkpoint 7")
time.sleep(10)

在命令提示符下使用 Python 运行它,我得到:

This is the name of the script:  mp.py
Number of arguments:  1
The arguments are:  ['mp.py']
__main__
12872- checkpoint 1
12872- checkpoint 2
This is the name of the script:  C:\tmp\mp.py
Number of arguments:  1
The arguments are:  ['C:\\tmp\\mp.py']
__mp_main__
7744- checkpoint 7
Square: 100
12872- checkpoint 3
12872- checkpoint 4
12872- checkpoint 5
This is the name of the script:  C:\tmp\mp.py
Number of arguments:  1
The arguments are:  ['C:\\tmp\\mp.py']
__mp_main__
15020- checkpoint 7
Cube: 1000
12872- checkpoint 6
Done!
12872- checkpoint 7

这是正确的。如果我在 Pybind11 的 C++ 项目中尝试相同的操作,则输出为:

This is the name of the script:  C:\AGPX\Documenti\TestPyBind\x64\Debug\TestPyBind.exe
Number of arguments:  1
The arguments are:  ['C:\\AGPX\\Documenti\\TestPyBind\\x64\\Debug\\TestPyBind.exe']
__main__
4440- checkpoint 1
This is the name of the script:  C:\AGPX\Documenti\TestPyBind\x64\Debug\TestPyBind.exe
Number of arguments:  4
The arguments are:  ['C:\\AGPX\\Documenti\\TestPyBind\\x64\\Debug\\TestPyBind.exe', '-c', 'from multiprocessing.spawn import spawn_main; spawn_main(parent_pid=4440, pipe_handle=128)', '--multiprocessing-fork']
__mp_main__
10176- checkpoint 7

请注意,在这种情况下,变量 __name__ 始终设置为“__main__”,因此我必须手动将其(对于衍生的进程)更改为“__mp_main__”(我可以检测到孩子进程感谢 sys.argv)。这是第一个奇怪的行为。 父进程的 pid 为 4440,我可以在进程资源管理器中看到该进程。 第一个子进程的 pid 为 10176,它到达末尾“检查点 7”,进程从进程资源管理器中消失。但是,主进程没有打印“检查点 2”,看起来它挂在“p1.start()”上,我不明白为什么。 完整的C++代码是:

#include <pybind11/pybind11.h>
#include <pybind11/stl.h>
#include <pybind11/stl_bind.h>
#include <pybind11/embed.h>
#include <iostream>

namespace py = pybind11;
using namespace py::literals;

int wmain(int argc, wchar_t **argv)

    py::initialize_interpreter();
    PySys_SetArgv(argc, argv);

    std::string pyCode = std::string(R"(
import multiprocessing
import os
import sys
import time
print("This is the name of the script: ", sys.argv[0])
print("Number of arguments: ", len(sys.argv))
print("The arguments are: " , str(sys.argv))
prefix=str(os.getpid())+"-"
if len(sys.argv) > 1:
    __name__ = "__mp_main__"

def print_cube(num):
    """
    function to print cube of given num
    """
    print("Cube: ".format(num * num * num))

def print_square(num):
    """
    function to print square of given num
    """
    print("Square: ".format(num * num))

print(__name__)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 1")
    # creating processes
    p1 = multiprocessing.Process(target=print_square, args=(10, ))
    p1.daemon = True
    p2 = multiprocessing.Process(target=print_cube, args=(10, ))

    # starting process 1
    p1.start()
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 2")

    # starting process 2
    p2.start()
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 3")

    # wait until process 1 is finished
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 4")
    p1.join()
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 5")
    # wait until process 2 is finished
    p2.join()
    print(prefix, "checkpoint 6")

    # both processes finished
    print("Done!")
print(prefix, "checkpoint 7")
time.sleep(10)
)");
    try
    
        py::exec(pyCode);
     catch (const std::exception &e) 
        std::cout << e.what();
    
    py::finalize_interpreter();

谁能告诉我如何解决这个问题?

提前致谢(我为我的英语道歉)。

【参考方案1】:

好的,感谢这个链接:https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/8530/how-to-get-python-multiprocessing-module-working-on-windows,我解决了这个奇怪的问题(这似乎与 Windows 相关)。 这不是 Pybind11 问题,而是 Python C API 本身。 您可以通过将sys.executable 设置为python 解释器可执行文件(python.exe) 的路径并将python 代码写入文件并将路径设置为__file__ 变量来解决此问题。也就是说,我必须添加:

import sys
sys.executable = "C:\\Users\\MyUserName\\Miniconda3\\python.exe"
__file__ = "C:\\tmp\\run.py"

而我需要将python代码写入__file__指定的文件,即:

FILE *f = nullptr;
fopen_s(&f, "c:\\tmp\\run.py", "wt");
fprintf(f, "%s", pyCode.c_str());
fclose(f);

就在执行py::exec(pyCode)之前。

另外代码:

if len(sys.argv) > 1:
    __name__ = "__mp_main__"

不再需要。但是,请注意,以这种方式运行的进程不再嵌入,不幸的是,如果您想直接将 C++ 模块传递给它们,则无法这样做。

希望这可以帮助其他人。
