who命令的作用用于显示当前有哪些用户登录到系统。
这个命令执行的原理是读取了系统上utmp文件中记录的所有登录信息，直接显示出来的
utmp文件在哪里呢？
man who的时候，在手册下面有这么一段说明：意思就是不指定文件参数，那么读取的就是/var/run/utmp，到底是不是，验证下
If FILE is not specified, use /var/run/utmp. /var/log/wtmp as FILE is common. If ARG1 ARG2 given, -m presumed: 'am i' or 'mom likes' are usual.
当我指定file参数为/var/run/utmp或者省略这个参数的时候，结果都是一样， 当我用一个错误的文件时，没有任何结果，从这里可以推断，who命令确实从/var/run/utmp中读取用户登录的信息
ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ who ghostwu tty7 2018-01-08 09:09 (:0) ghostwu pts/18 2018-01-08 12:59 (:0) ghostwu pts/19 2018-01-08 13:00 (:0) ghostwu pts/20 2018-01-08 13:03 (:0) ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ who -b system boot 2018-01-08 09:08 ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ who -b /var/run/utmp system boot 2018-01-08 09:08 ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ who -b /var/run/utmp2 ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ who -b /var/run/utmp3
那么utmp到底在哪里？
利用man -k utmp 查找所有的可能： 推断---> utmp (5) - login records 这里的可能性比较大，描述说，这里是记录登录信息的
ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ man -k utmp endutent (3) - access utmp file entries endutxent (3) - access utmp file entries getutent (3) - access utmp file entries getutent_r (3) - access utmp file entries getutid (3) - access utmp file entries getutid_r (3) - access utmp file entries getutline (3) - access utmp file entries getutline_r (3) - access utmp file entries getutmp (3) - copy utmp structure to utmpx, and vice versa getutmpx (3) - copy utmp structure to utmpx, and vice versa getutxent (3) - access utmp file entries getutxid (3) - access utmp file entries getutxline (3) - access utmp file entries login (3) - write utmp and wtmp entries logout (3) - write utmp and wtmp entries pututline (3) - access utmp file entries pututxline (3) - access utmp file entries sessreg (1) - manage utmpx/wtmpx entries for non-init clients setutent (3) - access utmp file entries setutxent (3) - access utmp file entries systemd-update-utmp (8) - Write audit and utmp updates at bootup, runlevel ch... systemd-update-utmp-runlevel.service (8) - Write audit and utmp updates at bo... systemd-update-utmp.service (8) - Write audit and utmp updates at bootup, run... utmp (5) - login records utmpdump (1) - dump UTMP and WTMP files in raw format utmpname (3) - access utmp file entries utmpx (5) - login records utmpxname (3) - access utmp file entries
接下来，我们去 man 5 utmp 看下，会发现有这么一段提示：
The file is a sequence of utmp structures, declared as follows in <utmp.h> (note that this is only one of several definitions around; details depend on the version of libc):
意思是utmp文件的信息是一系列utmp结构体数据, 这个结构体定义在utmp.h文件中， 每个linux发行版可能不一样.
接下来，我用强大的find命令查找到了2个目标：
ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ find /usr/include -name "utmp.h" /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/utmp.h /usr/include/utmp.h
结构体的定义就在这个文件中( /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/utmp.h )
这里有两个宏要注意下( ut_time和UTMP_FILE ), 下面的程序会用到
#ifndef _NO_UT_TIME /* We have a problem here: `ut_time' is also used otherwise. Define _NO_UT_TIME if the compiler complains. */ # define ut_time ut_tv.tv_sec #endif
ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ grep "UTMP_FILE" /usr/include/utmp.h #define UTMP_FILE _PATH_UTMP #define UTMP_FILENAME _PATH_UTMP ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ grep "_PATH_UTMP" /usr/include/utmp.h #define UTMP_FILE _PATH_UTMP #define UTMP_FILENAME _PATH_UTMP ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ grep "_PATH_UTMP" /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/utmp.h ghostwu@ubuntu:~$ grep "_PATH_UTMP" /usr/include/*.h /usr/include/paths.h:#define _PATH_UTMP "/var/run/utmp" /usr/include/utmp.h:#define UTMP_FILE _PATH_UTMP /usr/include/utmp.h:#define UTMP_FILENAME _PATH_UTMP /usr/include/utmpx.h:# define UTMPX_FILE _PATH_UTMPX /usr/include/utmpx.h:# define UTMPX_FILENAME _PATH_UTMPX ghostwu@ubuntu:~$
UTMP_FILE的查找思路： 首先grep两个目录下面的文件utmp.h，在/usr/include/utmp.h找到一个宏定义 _PATH_UTMP，下一步就是确定 _PATH_UTMP到底是什么，利用grep "_PATH_UTMP" /usr/include/*.h
最终在paths.h头文件中，发现了他的真面目
who命令书写思路：
1）从/var/run/utmp读取文件，每次读取一个struct utmp结构体这么大，如果长度每次都有这么大，继续读取
2）格式化4个信息：用户名，主机，地址，时间
3）只打印当前活动的用户(当前登录的用户)
4）格式化时间( 小时，分钟，秒， >10的补0, <10的原样返回 )

总结：
一个非常小的功能，囊括以下知识点：
1）文件读取
2）man手册与系统命令使用技巧
3）指针用法
4）字符串函数用法
5）时间函数用法
6）宏与typedef的用法
