How terminate child processes when parent process

2020-02-08 07:51发布

Task: Auto kill all child processes if parent process terminate. Parent procees can be terminated not only in correct way, but also by killing in ProcessExplorer, for example. How can I do it?

Similar question in С topic advice to use Job objects. How to use it in C# without exporting external DLL?


I tried to use Job Objects. But this code doesn't work properly:

  var job = PInvoke.CreateJobObject(null, null);
  var jobli = new PInvoke.JOBOBJECT_BASIC_LIMIT_INFORMATION();

  jobli.LimitFlags = PInvoke.LimitFlags.JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE
                   | PInvoke.LimitFlags.JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_PRIORITY_CLASS
                   | PInvoke.LimitFlags.JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_JOB_TIME
                   | PInvoke.LimitFlags.JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_DIE_ON_UNHANDLED_EXCEPTION
                   | PInvoke.LimitFlags.JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_JOB_MEMORY;

  var res = PInvoke.SetInformationJobObject(job, PInvoke.JOBOBJECTINFOCLASS.JobObjectBasicLimitInformation, jobli, 48);

  if (!res)
  {
    int b = PInvoke.GetLastError();
    Console.WriteLine("Error " + b);
  }

  var Prc = Process.Start(...);

  PInvoke.AssignProcessToJobObject(job, Prc.Handle);

PInvoke.SetInformationJobObject returns with error. GetLastError returns error 24. However, PInvoke.AssignProcessToJobObject works and child process added to Job Queue (I can see it in ProcessExplorer). But, because PInvoke.SetInformationJobObject don't work - spawned process stay alive when I kill parent one.

What do I have incorrect in this code?

To kill a process tree on windows, given only the parent process or process id, you'll need to walk the process tree.

For that, you'll need a way to get the parent process id for a given process.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Management;

namespace KillProcessTree
{

public static class MyExtensions
{
    public static int GetParentProcessId(this Process p)
    {
        int parentId = 0;
        try
        {
            ManagementObject mo = new ManagementObject("win32_process.handle='" + p.Id + "'");
            mo.Get();
            parentId = Convert.ToInt32(mo["ParentProcessId"]);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
            parentId = 0;
        }
        return parentId;
    }
}

Once you have that, actually killing the tree is not hard.

class Program
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Kill specified process and all child processes
    /// </summary>
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        if (args.Length < 1)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Usage: KillProcessTree <pid>");
            return;
        }

        int pid = int.Parse(args[0]);

        Process root = Process.GetProcessById(pid);
        if (root != null)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("KillProcessTree " + pid);

            var list = new List<Process>();
            GetProcessAndChildren(Process.GetProcesses(), root, list, 1);

            // kill each process
            foreach (Process p in list)
            {
                try
                {
                    p.Kill();
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
                }
            }
        }
        else
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Unknown process id: " + root);
        }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Get process and children
    /// We use postorder (bottom up) traversal; good as any when you kill a process tree </summary>
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="plist">Array of all processes</param>
    /// <param name="parent">Parent process</param>
    /// <param name="output">Output list</param>
    /// <param name="indent">Indent level</param>
    private static void GetProcessAndChildren(Process[] plist, Process parent, List<Process> output, int indent)
    {
        foreach (Process p in plist)
        {
            if (p.GetParentProcessId() == parent.Id)
            {
                GetProcessAndChildren(plist, p, output, indent + 1);
            }
        }
        output.Add(parent);
        Console.WriteLine(String.Format("{0," + indent*4 + "} {1}", parent.Id, parent.MainModule.ModuleName));
    }
}
} // namespace

Windows does not force child processes to close when a parent process closes. When you select "Kill Tree" in a tool like Task Manager or Process explorer, the tool actually finds all child processes and kill them one by one.

If you want to ensure that child processes are cleaned when your application terminates, you can create a ProcessManager class that implements IDisposable that actually creates the processes, keeps track of their instances and calls Kill on each one of them on Dispose, e.g.

public class ProcessManager:IDisposable
{
    List<Process> processes=new List<Process>();

    public Process Start(ProcessStartInfo info)
    {
        var newProcess = Process.Start(info);
        newProcess.EnableRaisingEvents = true
        processes.Add(newProcess);
        newProcess.Exited += (sender, e) => processes.Remove(newProcess);
        return newProcess;
    }

    ~ProcessManager()
    {
        Dispose(false);
    }

    public void Dispose()
    {
        Dispose(true);
        GC.SuppressFinalize(this);
    }

    protected virtual void Dispose(bool disposing)
    {
        foreach (var process in processes)
        {
            try
            {
                if (!process.HasExited)
                    process.Kill();
            }
            catch{}                    
        }
    }
}

I tried the code above and indeed, it does not work, complaining of a bad size. The reason for this is that the structure used changes size depending on the host platform; the original code fragment (seen on a dozen websites) assumes a 32 bit application.

Switch the structure to this (note the IntPtr resizing members) and it will work. At least it did for me.

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
struct JOBOBJECT_BASIC_LIMIT_INFORMATION
{
    public Int64 PerProcessUserTimeLimit;
    public Int64 PerJobUserTimeLimit;
    public Int16 LimitFlags;
    public UIntPtr MinimumWorkingSetSize;
    public UIntPtr MaximumWorkingSetSize;
    public Int16 ActiveProcessLimit;
    public Int64 Affinity;
    public Int16 PriorityClass;
    public Int16 SchedulingClass;
}

Did you pay attention to the error code? Error 24 is ERROR_BAD_LENGTH, which probably means that 48 isn't the right length of the structure. I think it's 44, but you should do a sizeof to be sure.

You can pass ProcessID of the parent process as an argument to the child process. And then child processes will be responsible for checking from time to time whether the parent process still running. (By calling Process.GetProcessById.)

Another way to track existence of the parent process is to use Mutex synchronization primitive. Parent application will initially create a global mutex with the name known by children. Children can check from time to time whether the mutex still exists and terminate if not. (Once the parent process is closed the mutex will be destroyed by the system automatically, regardless of the way it way closed.)
