廢話不多說，相信你肯定也在system接口上填過坑！先上一把它的正確操作：
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#define Debuging(fmt, arg...) printf(fmt, ##arg)
int new_system(char *cmd, char *resultout, int buflen, int *lenout)
{
int status = system(cmd);
Debuging("cmd=%s\n", cmd);
if (-1 == status)
{
Debuging("system error!\n");
}
else
{
Debuging("exit status value = [0x%x]\n", status);
if (WIFEXITED(status))
{
if (0 == WEXITSTATUS(status))
{
Debuging("run shell script successfully.\n");
return 0;
}
else
{
Debuging("run shell script fail, script exit code: %d\n", WEXITSTATUS(status));
}
}
else
{
Debuging("exit status = [%d]\n", WEXITSTATUS(status));
}
}
return -1;
}
示例代碼中很好地展示了，如何判斷system接口的返回值！
以下是linux man中關於system接口的介紹：
SYSTEM(3) Linux Programmer's Manual SYSTEM(3)
NAME
system - execute a shell command
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
int system(const char *command);
DESCRIPTION
The system() library function uses fork(2) to create a child process that executes the shell command specified in command using
execl(3) as follows:
execl("/bin/sh", "sh", "-c", command, (char *) 0);
system() returns after the command has been completed.
During execution of the command, SIGCHLD will be blocked, and SIGINT and SIGQUIT will be ignored, in the process that calls system()
(these signals will be handled according to their defaults inside the child process that executes command).
If command is NULL, then system() returns a status indicating whether a shell is available on the system
RETURN VALUE
The return value of system() is one of the following:
* If command is NULL, then a nonzero value if a shell is available, or 0 if no shell is available.
* If a child process could not be created, or its status could not be retrieved, the return value is -1.
* If a shell could not be executed in the child process, then the return value is as though the child shell terminated by calling
_exit(2) with the status 127.
* If all system calls succeed, then the return value is the termination status of the child shell used to execute command. (The
termination status of a shell is the termination status of the last command it executes.)
In the last two cases, the return value is a "wait status" that can be examined using the macros described in waitpid(2). (i.e.,
WIFEXITED() WEXITSTATUS() and so on).
system() does not affect the wait status of any other children.

CONFORMING TO

NOTES
system() provides simplicity and convenience: it handles all of the details of calling fork(2), execl(3), and waitpid(2), as well as
the necessary manipulations of signals; in addition, the shell performs the usual substitutions and I/O redirections for command.
The main cost of system() is inefficiency: additional system calls are required to create the process that runs the shell and to
execute the shell.
If the _XOPEN_SOURCE feature test macro is defined (before including any header files), then the macros described in waitpid(2)
(WEXITSTATUS(), etc.) are made available when including <stdlib.h>.
As mentioned, system() ignores SIGINT and SIGQUIT. This may make programs that call it from a loop uninterruptible, unless they
take care themselves to check the exit status of the child. For example:
while (something) {
int ret = system("foo");
if (WIFSIGNALED(ret) &&
(WTERMSIG(ret) == SIGINT || WTERMSIG(ret) == SIGQUIT))
break;
}
Do not use system() from a program with set-user-ID or set-group-ID privileges, because strange values for some environment vari‐
ables might be used to subvert system integrity. Use the exec(3) family of functions instead, but not execlp(3) or execvp(3). sys‐
tem() will not, in fact, work properly from programs with set-user-ID or set-group-ID privileges on systems on which /bin/sh is bash
version 2, since bash 2 drops privileges on startup. (Debian uses a modified bash which does not do this when invoked as sh.)
In versions of glibc before 2.1.3, the check for the availability of /bin/sh was not actually performed if command was NULL; instead
it was always assumed to be available, and system() always returned 1 in this case. Since glibc 2.1.3, this check is performed
because, even though POSIX.1-2001 requires a conforming implementation to provide a shell, that shell may not be available or exe‐
cutable if the calling program has previously called chroot(2) (which is not specified by POSIX.1-2001).
It is possible for the shell command to terminate with a status of 127, which yields a system() return value that is indistinguish‐
able from the case where a shell could not be executed in the child process.
