Android面试Android进阶(十三)-APP启动流程
问:简单描述一下APP启动流程与Activity的启动流程
答:APP的启动是从用户点击桌面的icon开始的。Android的桌面应用叫Launcher,可以把桌面也看作是Android系统的一个应用,桌面只是这个应用的其中一个页面而已。Android中每个应用就是一个进程,那一个应用启动另一个应用并通信,肯定会有进程间通信,也就是IPC通信,在Android中的IPC大部分都是通过Binder实现的。这样分析的话,APP启动流程其实就是Activity的启动流程,只不过中间会有判断要启动Activity所在的进程是否存在,如果不存在则先通知Zygote进程fork()一个新的进程,然后启动目标页面。如果要只看总结,翻到最后面,总结了七个点:
1、从桌面应用的LauncherActivity点击开始:
//LauncherActivity继承子ListActivity,其实就是用于存放很多个应用的桌面
@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
Intent intent = intentForPosition(position);
startActivity(intent); //执行到Activity的startActivity
}
//接着看Activity的startActivity ---又执行到了startActivityForResult
public void startActivityForResult(@RequiresPermission Intent intent, int requestCode,
@Nullable Bundle options) {
if (mParent == null) { //mParent 是用于判断是否有父Activity,嵌套Activity中的,基本不会有,else就不看了
options = transferSpringboardActivityOptions(options);
Instrumentation.ActivityResult ar =
mInstrumentation.execStartActivity( //mMainThread就是ActivityThread的实例,应用程序入口main方法所在类。
//这个时候应用都还没启动哪里来的实例?其实这里是Launcher的,也就是当前的。
this, mMainThread.getApplicationThread(), mToken, this,
intent, requestCode, options);
if (ar != null) {
mMainThread.sendActivityResult(
mToken, mEmbeddedID, requestCode, ar.getResultCode(),
ar.getResultData());
}
//....
} else {
//....
}
}
上面的代码Activity. startActivityForResult方法通过mInstrumentation对象调用execStartActivity,Instrumentation主要用来监控应用程序和系统的交互。mMainThread其实是一个ActivityThread对象,实际上就是Launcher这个应用的ActivityThread,在Launcher启动时初始化。
//Instrumentation.java类
public ActivityResult execStartActivity(Context who, IBinder contextThread, IBinder token, String target,
Intent intent, int requestCode, Bundle options) {
//....
try {
//....
int result = ActivityTaskManager.getService().startActivity(whoThread,
who.getBasePackageName(), who.getAttributionTag(), intent,
intent.resolveTypeIfNeeded(who.getContentResolver()), token, target,
requestCode, 0, null, options);
checkStartActivityResult(result, intent);
} catch (RemoteException e) {
throw new RuntimeException("Failure from system", e);
}
return null;
}
//ActivityTaskManager.getService() 看看获取的是什么:
/** ActivityTaskManager.java*/
public static IActivityTaskManager getService() {
return IActivityTaskManagerSingleton.get();
}
private static final Singleton<IActivityTaskManager> IActivityTaskManagerSingleton =
new Singleton<IActivityTaskManager>() {
@Override
protected IActivityTaskManager create() {
//通过ServiceManager 获取一个服务,这里先不管什么服务,ServiceManager是管理系统中所有服务的类
final IBinder b = ServiceManager.getService(Context.ACTIVITY_TASK_SERVICE);
//获取一个什么样的服务呢?这里看到XXX.Stub.asInterface(),这不是经常见到AIDL的东西么?那看看谁实现了IActivityTaskManager.Stub接口
return IActivityTaskManager.Stub.asInterface(b);
}
};
//找到了 就是它:
public class ActivityTaskManagerService extends IActivityTaskManager.Stub
ActivityTaskManagerService简称ATMS, 到这里明白:Launcher启动一个APP通过一系列的操作,使用AIDL的方式通过Binder将数据交给了ATMS,(这里是启动应用的一次IPC通信,即Launcher和ATMS的一次通信)ATMS开始处理消息,Instrumentation已经将Launcher所在的进程(whoThread参数,就是前面到mMainThread.getApplicationThread)传过来了,AMS将其保存为一个ActivityRecord对象,这个对象中有一个ApplicationThreadProxy即Binder的代理对象,AMS通ApplicationTreadProxy发送消息给Launcher。ATMS在接收到消息后,会通知前一个页面该休息了,也就是进入pause状态,这里通知Launcher你该休息了:
//ActivityStack.java
private boolean resumeTopActivityInnerLocked(ActivityRecord prev, ActivityOptions options) {
//...
ActivityRecord next = topRunningActivityLocked(true /* focusableOnly */);
//...
boolean pausing = getDisplay().pauseBackStacks(userLeaving, next, false);
if (mResumedActivity != null) {
if (DEBUG_STATES) Slog.d(TAG_STATES,
"resumeTopActivityLocked: Pausing " + mResumedActivity);
pausing |= startPausingLocked(userLeaving, false, next, false);
}
//...
if (next.attachedToProcess()) {
//应用已经启动
try {
//...
transaction.setLifecycleStateRequest(
ResumeActivityItem.obtain(next.app.getReportedProcState(),
getDisplay().mDisplayContent.isNextTransitionForward()));
mService.getLifecycleManager().scheduleTransaction(transaction);
//...
} catch (Exception e) {
//...
mStackSupervisor.startSpecificActivityLocked(next, true, false);
return true;
}
//...
// From this point on, if something goes wrong there is no way
// to recover the activity.
try {
next.completeResumeLocked();
} catch (Exception e) {
// If any exception gets thrown, toss away this
// activity and try the next one.
Slog.w(TAG, "Exception thrown during resume of " + next, e);
requestFinishActivityLocked(next.appToken, Activity.RESULT_CANCELED, null,
"resume-exception", true);
return true;
}
} else {
//冷启动流程
mStackSupervisor.startSpecificActivity(next, true, true);
}
}
首先startPausingLocked()让上一个页面进入pause状态,然后开始判断要启动的APP的进程是否存在,如果存在就直接启动目标Activity,如果不存在就创建进程。如果当前是Launcher的话,存在进程,进入到 热启动流程,不存在,进入到 冷启动流程。也是Activity生命周期中为啥启动一个Activity时,先执行了onPause后,目标Activity才开始执行生命周期方法。接着看冷启动流程:
//ActivityStackSupervisor.java
void startSpecificActivity(ActivityRecord r, boolean andResume, boolean checkConfig) {
// Is this activity's application already running?
final WindowProcessController wpc =
mService.getProcessController(r.processName, r.info.applicationInfo.uid);
boolean knownToBeDead = false;
if (wpc != null && wpc.hasThread()) {
try {
//继续判断是否存在进程,如果存在就返回了
realStartActivityLocked(r, wpc, andResume, checkConfig);
return;
} catch (RemoteException e) {
}
knownToBeDead = true;
}
//.... mService是ATMS的实例对象,这里去创建了进程了,去看看怎么创建进程的
mService.startProcessAsync(r, knownToBeDead, isTop, isTop ? "top-activity" : "activity");
}
ATMS如何创建新的进程?或者说怎么与Zygote进行通信,让Zygote进程fork()进程的,来看ATMS中:
//ActivityTaskManagerService.java
void startProcessAsync(ActivityRecord activity, boolean knownToBeDead, boolean isTop,
String hostingType) {
try {
//...
// Post message to start process to avoid possible deadlock of calling into AMS with the
//这里的意思:发布消息以启动进程,以避免调用AMS时可能出现的死锁
// ATMS lock held.
final Message m = PooledLambda.obtainMessage(ActivityManagerInternal::startProcess,
mAmInternal, activity.processName, activity.info.applicationInfo, knownToBeDead,
isTop, hostingType, activity.intent.getComponent());
mH.sendMessage(m);
} finally {
Trace.traceEnd(TRACE_TAG_WINDOW_MANAGER);
}
}
ActivityManagerInternal::startProcess看这了,启动一个新的进程:
//是一个抽象方法,找到实现它的地方:
public abstract void startProcess(String processName, ApplicationInfo info,
boolean knownToBeDead, boolean isTop, String hostingType, ComponentName hostingName);
//实现ActivityManagerInternal::startProcess方法的类在ActivityManagerService中:
//ActivityManagerService.java
public class ActivityManagerService extends IActivityManager.Stub
implements Watchdog.Monitor, BatteryStatsImpl.BatteryCallback {
// ... ...
public final class LocalService extends ActivityManagerInternal {
@Override
public void startProcess(String processName, ApplicationInfo info,
boolean knownToBeDead, String hostingType, ComponentName hostingName) {
try {
if (Trace.isTagEnabled(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER)) {
Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "startProcess:"
+ processName);
}
//线程同步,防止多线程创建进程,进程创建只能支持单线程,所以后续AMS与Zygote的通信不能用Binder通信,选择使用Socket
synchronized (ActivityManagerService.this) {
startProcessLocked(processName, info, knownToBeDead, 0 /* intentFlags */,
new HostingRecord(hostingType, hostingName),
false /* allowWhileBooting */, false /* isolated */,
true /* keepIfLarge */);
}
} finally {
Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
}
}
}
// ... ...
}
这里可以看到冷启动流程中,把创建新进程的任务交给了AMS去做,最后执行到ZygoteProcess中,Zygote进程负责创建新的进程。
//ZygoteProcess.java
private Process.ProcessStartResult attemptUsapSendArgsAndGetResult(
ZygoteState zygoteState, String msgStr)
throws ZygoteStartFailedEx, IOException {
try (LocalSocket usapSessionSocket = zygoteState.getUsapSessionSocket()) {
final BufferedWriter usapWriter =
new BufferedWriter(
new OutputStreamWriter(usapSessionSocket.getOutputStream()),
Zygote.SOCKET_BUFFER_SIZE);
final DataInputStream usapReader =
new DataInputStream(usapSessionSocket.getInputStream());
usapWriter.write(msgStr);
usapWriter.flush();
Process.ProcessStartResult result = new Process.ProcessStartResult();
result.pid = usapReader.readInt();
// USAPs can't be used to spawn processes that need wrappers.
result.usingWrapper = false;
if (result.pid >= 0) {
return result;
} else {
throw new ZygoteStartFailedEx("USAP specialization failed");
}
}
}
可以看到,这里其实是通过socket和Zygote进行通信,BufferedWriter用于读取和接收消息。这里将要新建进程的消息传递给Zygote,由Zygote进行fork进程,并返回新进程的pid。这过程中也实例化ActivityThread对象,然后执行main方法:
//RuntimeInit.java
protected static Runnable findStaticMain(String className, String[] argv,
ClassLoader classLoader) {
Class<?> cl;
try {
cl = Class.forName(className, true, classLoader);
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Missing class when invoking static main " + className,
ex);
}
Method m;
try {
m = cl.getMethod("main", new Class[] { String[].class });
} catch (NoSuchMethodException ex) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Missing static main on " + className, ex);
} catch (SecurityException ex) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Problem getting static main on " + className, ex);
}
//...
return new MethodAndArgsCaller(m, argv);
}
这里通过反射的方式调用了main方法,之后就进入到APP的主入口main方法了。
public static void main(String[] args) {
//...
Looper.prepareMainLooper();
ActivityThread thread = new ActivityThread();
//这里将会告诉AMS,进程创建完毕,我启动好了...同时创建Application
thread.attach(false, startSeq);
//...
if (false) {
Looper.myLooper().setMessageLogging(new
LogPrinter(Log.DEBUG, "ActivityThread"));
}
//...
Looper.loop();
throw new RuntimeException("Main thread loop unexpectedly exited");
}
到这里,AMS告诉Zygote创建新的进程已经就完事了,事后一根烟,赛过活神仙,我先休息一下....
现在继续:
创建进程完毕其实应用就已经启动了,因为一个应用其实就是一个进程,这个时候这个应用就开始自己去创建Application、启动Activity了,然后重新开始startActivity,进入到最开始的地方,这个时候判断的目标Activity所在的进程已经存在,则进入到Activity的启动流程,最终执行到ActivityThread的handleLaunchActivity()方法:
//ActivityThread.java
public Activity handleLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r,
PendingTransactionActions pendingActions, Intent customIntent) {
//...
WindowManagerGlobal.initialize();
//... 接着执行performLaunchActivity
final Activity a = performLaunchActivity(r, customIntent);
//...
return a;
}
private Activity performLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {
//创建ContextImpl
ContextImpl appContext = createBaseContextForActivity(r);
Activity activity = null;
try {
java.lang.ClassLoader cl = appContext.getClassLoader();
//创建Activity
activity = mInstrumentation.newActivity(
cl, component.getClassName(), r.intent);
}
try {
if (activity != null) {
//完成activity的一些重要数据的初始化
activity.attach(appContext, this, getInstrumentation(), r.token,
r.ident, app, r.intent, r.activityInfo, title, r.parent,
r.embeddedID, r.lastNonConfigurationInstances, config,
r.referrer, r.voiceInteractor, window, r.configCallback,
r.assistToken);
if (customIntent != null) {
activity.mIntent = customIntent;
}
//设置activity的主题
int theme = r.activityInfo.getThemeResource();
if (theme != 0) {
activity.setTheme(theme);
}
//调用activity的onCreate方法,到这里,就几乎结束了...
if (r.isPersistable()) {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state, r.persistentState);
} else {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state);
}
}
}
return activity;
}
然后到这里,第二场也结束了,总结一下这次的成果,消耗了不知道多少精力,精疲力尽的感觉,只为了最后那一刻,那就是:注意了,这里划重点,会考!
1、Launcher被调用点击事件,转到Instrumentation类的startActivity方法。
2、Instrumentation通过AIDL方式使用Binder机制告诉ATMS要启动应用的需求。
3、ATMS收到需求后,反馈Launcher,让Launcher进入Paused状态
4、Launcher进入Paused状态,ATMS将创建进程的任务交给AMS,AMS通过socket与Zygote通信,告知Zygote需要新建进程。
5、Zygote fork进程,并调用ActivityThread的main方法,也就是app的入口。
6、ActivityThread的main方法新建了ActivityThread实例,并新建了Looper实例,开始loop循环。
同时ActivityThread也告知AMS,进程创建完毕,开始创建Application,Provider,并调用Applicaiton的attach,onCreate方法。
7、最后就是创建上下文,通过类加载器加载Activity,调用Activity的onCreate方法。
最后:其实了解启动流程,最终也是为了启动优化做准备吧,这么看来,启动优化可以做的就是最后的:
1、Application的attach方法,MultiDexApplication会在方法里面会去执行MultiDex逻辑。所以这里可以进行MultiDex优化,比如今日头条方案就是单独启动一个进程的activity去加载MultiDex。
2、Application的onCreate方法,大量三方库的初始化都在这里进行,所以我们可以开启线程池,懒加载等等。把每个启动任务进行区分,哪些可以子线程运行,哪些有先后顺序。
3、Activity的onCreate方法,同样进行线程处理,懒加载。或者预创建Activity,提前类加载等等。
看到两张图,有时候都吃自己家的可能味道不大好,也可以偷吃点嘛,所以这两张图是我偷来的:
