Android启动过程概述

原址

一. 概述

Android系统底层基于Linux Kernel, 当Kernel启动过程会创建init进程, 该进程是uoyou用户空间的鼻祖, init进程会启动servicemanager(binder服务管家), Zygote进程(Java进程的鼻祖). Zygote进程会创建 system_server进程以及各种app进程.

二. init

init是Linux系统中用户空间的第一个进程(pid=1), Kerner启动后会调用/system/core/init/Init.cpp的main()方法.

2.1 Init.main

int main(int argc, char** argv) {...klog_init();  //初始化kernel logproperty_init(); //创建一块共享的内存空间，用于属性服务signal_handler_init();  //初始化子进程退出的信号处理过程property_load_boot_defaults(); //加载/default.prop文件start_property_service();   //启动属性服务器(通过socket通信)init_parse_config_file("/init.rc"); //解析init.rc文件//执行rc文件中触发器为 on early-init的语句action_for_each_trigger("early-init", action_add_queue_tail);//执行rc文件中触发器为 on init的语句action_for_each_trigger("init", action_add_queue_tail);//执行rc文件中触发器为 on late-init的语句action_for_each_trigger("late-init", action_add_queue_tail);while (true) {if (!waiting_for_exec) {execute_one_command();restart_processes();}int timeout = -1;if (process_needs_restart) {timeout = (process_needs_restart - gettime()) * 1000;if (timeout < 0)timeout = 0;}if (!action_queue_empty() || cur_action) {timeout = 0;}epoll_event ev;//循环 等待事件发生int nr = TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY(epoll_wait(epoll_fd, &ev, 1, timeout));if (nr == -1) {ERROR("epoll_wait failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));} else if (nr == 1) {((void (*)()) ev.data.ptr)();}}return 0;
}

init进程的主要功能点:

分析和运行所有的init.rc文件;
生成设备驱动节点; （通过rc文件创建）
处理子进程的终止(signal方式);
提供属性服务property service。

2.2 启动Zygote

当init解析到下面这条语句,便会启动Zygote进程

service zygote /system/bin/app_process -Xzygote /system/bin --zygote --start-system-serverclass main //伴随着main class的启动而启动socket zygote stream 660 root system //创建socketonrestart write /sys/android_power/request_state wakeonrestart write /sys/power/state ononrestart restart media  //当zygote重启时,则会重启mediaonrestart restart netd  // 当zygote重启时,则会重启netd

当init子进程(Zygote)退出时，会产生SIGCHLD信号，并发送给init进程，通过socket套接字传递数据，调用到wait_for_one_process()方法，根据是否是oneshot，来决定是重启子进程，还是放弃启动。由于缺省模式oneshot=false,因此Zygote一旦被杀便会再次由init进程拉起.

接下来,便是进入了Zygote进程.

三. Zygote

当Zygote进程启动后, 便会执行到frameworks/base/cmds/app_process/App_main.cpp文件的main()方法. 整个调用流程:

App_main.mainAR.startAR.startVmAR.startRegZygoteInit.main (首次进入Java世界)registerZygoteSocketpreloadstartSystemServerrunSelectLoop

3.1 App_main.main

int main(int argc, char* const argv[])
{AppRuntime runtime(argv[0], computeArgBlockSize(argc, argv));while (i < argc) {...//参数解析}//设置进程名if (!niceName.isEmpty()) {runtime.setArgv0(niceName.string());set_process_name(niceName.string());}if (zygote) {// 启动AppRuntimeruntime.start("com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit", args, zygote);} ...
}

3.2 AndroidRuntime::start

[-> AndroidRuntime.cpp]

void AndroidRuntime::start(const char* className, const Vector<String8>& options)
{ALOGD("\n>>>>>> AndroidRuntime START %s <<<<<<\n",className != NULL ? className : "(unknown)");...// 虚拟机创建if (startVm(&mJavaVM, &env, zygote) != 0) {return;}onVmCreated(env);// JNI方法注册if (startReg(env) < 0) {return;}...// 调用ZygoteInit.main()方法[见小节3.3]env->CallStaticVoidMethod(startClass, startMeth, strArray);

3.3 ZygoteInit.main

[–>ZygoteInit.java]

public static void main(String argv[]) {try {...registerZygoteSocket(socketName); //为Zygote注册socketpreload(); // 预加载类和资源[见小节3.4]...if (startSystemServer) {startSystemServer(abiList, socketName);//启动system_server【见小节3.6】}Log.i(TAG, "Accepting command socket connections");runSelectLoop(abiList); //进入循环模式[见小节3.5]...} catch (MethodAndArgsCaller caller) {caller.run(); //启动system_server中会讲到。} ...
}

3.4 ZygoteInit.preload

[–>ZygoteInit.java]

static void preload() {Log.d(TAG, "begin preload");preloadClasses();preloadResources();preloadOpenGL();preloadSharedLibraries();WebViewFactory.prepareWebViewInZygote();Log.d(TAG, "end preload");
}

3.5 ZygoteInit.runSelectLoop

[–>ZygoteInit.java]

private static void runSelectLoop(String abiList) throws MethodAndArgsCaller {ArrayList<FileDescriptor> fds = new ArrayList<FileDescriptor>();ArrayList<ZygoteConnection> peers = new ArrayList<ZygoteConnection>();//sServerSocket是socket通信中的服务端，即zygote进程fds.add(sServerSocket.getFileDescriptor());peers.add(null);while (true) {StructPollfd[] pollFds = new StructPollfd[fds.size()];for (int i = 0; i < pollFds.length; ++i) {pollFds[i] = new StructPollfd();pollFds[i].fd = fds.get(i);pollFds[i].events = (short) POLLIN;}...Os.poll(pollFds, -1);for (int i = pollFds.length - 1; i >= 0; --i) {//采用I/O多路复用机制，当客户端发出连接请求或者数据处理请求时，跳过continue，执行后面的代码if ((pollFds[i].revents & POLLIN) == 0) {continue;}if (i == 0) {//创建客户端连接ZygoteConnection newPeer = acceptCommandPeer(abiList);peers.add(newPeer);fds.add(newPeer.getFileDesciptor());} else {//处理客户端数据事务boolean done = peers.get(i).runOnce();if (done) {peers.remove(i);fds.remove(i);}}}}
}

3.6 ZygoteInit.startSystemServer

[–>ZygoteInit.java]

private static boolean startSystemServer(String abiList, String socketName)throws MethodAndArgsCaller, RuntimeException {...// fork子进程system_serverpid = Zygote.forkSystemServer(parsedArgs.uid, parsedArgs.gid,parsedArgs.gids,parsedArgs.debugFlags,null,parsedArgs.permittedCapabilities,parsedArgs.effectiveCapabilities);...if (pid == 0) {if (hasSecondZygote(abiList)) {waitForSecondaryZygote(socketName);}//进入system_server进程[见小节4.1]handleSystemServerProcess(parsedArgs);}return true;
}

Zygote进程创建Java虚拟机,并注册JNI方法, 真正成为Java进程的母体,用于孵化Java进程. 在创建完[小节4.1]system_server进程后,zygote功成身退，调用runSelectLoop()，随时待命，当接收到请求创建新进程请求时立即唤醒并执行相应工作。

四. system_server

Zygote通过fork后创建system_server进程。

4.1 handleSystemServerProcess

[–>ZygoteInit.java]

private static void handleSystemServerProcess(ZygoteConnection.Arguments parsedArgs)throws ZygoteInit.MethodAndArgsCaller {...if (parsedArgs.niceName != null) {//设置当前进程名为"system_server"Process.setArgV0(parsedArgs.niceName);}final String systemServerClasspath = Os.getenv("SYSTEMSERVERCLASSPATH");if (systemServerClasspath != null) {//执行dex优化操作,比如services.jarperformSystemServerDexOpt(systemServerClasspath);}if (parsedArgs.invokeWith != null) {...} else {ClassLoader cl = null;if (systemServerClasspath != null) {cl = new PathClassLoader(systemServerClasspath, ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader());Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(cl);}//[见小节4.2]RuntimeInit.zygoteInit(parsedArgs.targetSdkVersion, parsedArgs.remainingArgs, cl);}
}

system_server进程创建PathClassLoader类加载器.

4.2 RuntimeInit.zygoteInit

[–> RuntimeInit.java]

public static final void zygoteInit(int targetSdkVersion, String[] argv, ClassLoader classLoader)throws ZygoteInit.MethodAndArgsCaller {Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "RuntimeInit");redirectLogStreams(); //重定向log输出commonInit(); // 通用的一些初始化nativeZygoteInit(); // zygote初始化applicationInit(targetSdkVersion, argv, classLoader); // [见小节3.4]
}

nativeZygoteInit()方法经过层层调用,会进入app_main.cpp中的onZygoteInit()方法, Binder线程池的创建也是在这个过程,如下:

virtual void onZygoteInit()
{sp<ProcessState> proc = ProcessState::self();proc->startThreadPool(); //启动新binder线程
}

applicationInit()方法经过层层调用,会抛出异常ZygoteInit.MethodAndArgsCaller(m, argv), ZygoteInit.main() 会捕捉该异常, 见下文.

4.3 ZygoteInit.main

[–>ZygoteInit.java]

public static void main(String argv[]) {try {startSystemServer(abiList, socketName); //抛出MethodAndArgsCaller异常....} catch (MethodAndArgsCaller caller) {caller.run(); //此处通过反射,会调用SystemServer.main()方法 [见小节4.4]} catch (RuntimeException ex) {...}
}

采用抛出异常的方式,用于栈帧清空,提供利用率, 以至于现在大家看到的每个Java进程的调用栈如下:

...
at com.android.server.SystemServer.main(SystemServer.java:175)
at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke!(Native method)
at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:738)
at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:628)

4.4 SystemServer.main

[–>SystemServer.java]

public final class SystemServer {...public static void main(String[] args) {//先初始化SystemServer对象，再调用对象的run()方法new SystemServer().run();}
}

4.5 SystemServer.run

[–>SystemServer.java]

private void run() {if (System.currentTimeMillis() < EARLIEST_SUPPORTED_TIME) {Slog.w(TAG, "System clock is before 1970; setting to 1970.");SystemClock.setCurrentTimeMillis(EARLIEST_SUPPORTED_TIME);}...Slog.i(TAG, "Entered the Android system server!");EventLog.writeEvent(EventLogTags.BOOT_PROGRESS_SYSTEM_RUN, SystemClock.uptimeMillis());Looper.prepareMainLooper();// 准备主线程looper//加载android_servers.so库，该库包含的源码在frameworks/base/services/目录下System.loadLibrary("android_servers");//检测上次关机过程是否失败，该方法可能不会返回[见小节3.6.1]performPendingShutdown();createSystemContext(); //初始化系统上下文//创建系统服务管理mSystemServiceManager = new SystemServiceManager(mSystemContext);LocalServices.addService(SystemServiceManager.class, mSystemServiceManager);//启动各种系统服务[见小节3.7]try {startBootstrapServices(); // 启动引导服务startCoreServices();      // 启动核心服务startOtherServices();     // 启动其他服务[见小节4.6]} catch (Throwable ex) {Slog.e("System", "************ Failure starting system services", ex);throw ex;}//一直循环执行Looper.loop();throw new RuntimeException("Main thread loop unexpectedly exited");
}

4.6 服务启动

public final class SystemServer {private void startBootstrapServices() {...//phase100mSystemServiceManager.startBootPhase(SystemService.PHASE_WAIT_FOR_DEFAULT_DISPLAY);...}private void startOtherServices() {...//phase480 和phase500mSystemServiceManager.startBootPhase(SystemService.PHASE_LOCK_SETTINGS_READY);mSystemServiceManager.startBootPhase(SystemService.PHASE_SYSTEM_SERVICES_READY);...//[见小节4.7]mActivityManagerService.systemReady(new Runnable() {@Overridepublic void run() {//phase550mSystemServiceManager.startBootPhase(SystemService.PHASE_ACTIVITY_MANAGER_READY);...//phase600mSystemServiceManager.startBootPhase(SystemService.PHASE_THIRD_PARTY_APPS_CAN_START);}}}
}

start: 创建AMS, PMS, LightsService, DMS.
phase100: 进入Phase100, 创建PKMS, WMS, IMS, DBMS, LockSettingsService, JobSchedulerService, MmsService等服务;
phase480 && 500: 进入Phase480, 调用WMS, PMS, PKMS, DisplayManagerService这4个服务的systemReady();
Phase550: 进入phase550, 执行AMS.systemReady(), 启动SystemUI, WebViewFactory, Watchdog.
Phase600: 进入phase600, 执行AMS.systemReady(), 执行各种服务的systemRunning().
Phase1000: 进入1000, 执行finishBooting, 启动启动on-hold进程.

4.7 AMS.systemReady

public final class ActivityManagerService extends ActivityManagerNativeimplements Watchdog.Monitor, BatteryStatsImpl.BatteryCallback {public void systemReady(final Runnable goingCallback) {... //update相关mSystemReady = true;//杀掉所有非persistent进程removeProcessLocked(proc, true, false, "system update done");mProcessesReady = true; goingCallback.run();  //[见小节1.6.2]addAppLocked(info, false, null); //启动所有的persistent进程mBooting = true; //启动homestartHomeActivityLocked(mCurrentUserId, "systemReady"); //恢复栈顶的ActivitymStackSupervisor.resumeTopActivitiesLocked();}
}

System_server主线程的启动工作,总算完成, 进入Looper.loop()状态,等待其他线程通过handler发送消息再处理.

五. app

对于普通的app进程,跟system_server进程的启动过来有些类似.不同的是app进程是向发消息给system_server进程, 由system_server向zygote发出创建进程的请求.

理解Android进程创建流程, 可知进程创建后接下来会进入ActivityThread.main()过程。

5.1 ActivityThread.main

public static void main(String[] args) {...Environment.initForCurrentUser();...Process.setArgV0("<pre-initialized>");//创建主线程looperLooper.prepareMainLooper();ActivityThread thread = new ActivityThread();thread.attach(false); //attach到系统进程if (sMainThreadHandler == null) {sMainThreadHandler = thread.getHandler();}//主线程进入循环状态Looper.loop();throw new RuntimeException("Main thread loop unexpectedly exited");
}

app进程的主线程调用栈的栈底如下:

...
at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:5442)
at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke!(Native method)
at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:738)
at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:628)

跟前面介绍的system_server进程调用栈对比:

at com.android.server.SystemServer.main(SystemServer.java:175)
at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke!(Native method)
at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:738)
at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:628)

4. logcat小技巧

通过adb bugreport抓取log信息.先看zygote是否起来, 再看system_server主线程的运行情况,再看ActivityManager情况

adb logcat -s Zygote
adb logcat -s SystemServer
adb logcat -s SystemServiceManager
adb logcat | grep "1359  1359" //system_server情况
adb logcat -s ActivityManager

现场调试命令

cat proc/[pid]/stack ==> 查看kernel调用栈
debuggerd -b [pid] ==> 也不可以不带参数-b, 则直接输出到/data/tombstones/目录
kill -3 [pid] ==> 生成/data/anr/traces.txt文件
lsof [pid] ==> 查看进程所打开的文件

七. 总结

各大核心进程启动后，都会进入各种对象所相应的main()方法，如下

进程	主方法
init进程	Init.main()
zygote进程	ZygoteInit.main()
app_process进程	RuntimeInit.main
system_server进程	SystemServer.main()
app进程	ActivityThread.main()

注意其中app_process进程是指通过/system/bin/app_process来启动的进程，且后面跟的参数不带–zygote，即并非启动zygote进程。比如常见的有通过adb shell方式来执行am,pm等命令，便是这种方式。

关于重要进程重启的过程，会触发哪些关联进程重启名单：

zygote：触发media、netd以及子进程(包括system_server进程)重启；
system_server: 触发zygote重启;
surfaceflinger：触发zygote重启;
servicemanager: 触发zygote、healthd、media、surfaceflinger、drm重启

所以，surfaceflinger,servicemanager,zygote自身以及system_server进程被杀都会触发Zygote重启。
