Android系统较为庞大,要搞清楚系统运行原理需要长期努力。系统启动部分看了几遍但没有总结,今天简单总结一下。
Android首先重点是启动zygote进程,这个进程来源于init.rc的读取,zygote进程主要用于孵化新的app程序,还包括启动android大量的服务SystemService
本人研究的源码是4.1的,其它版本的可能略有差异。
init.rc 文件作为启动配置重要的入口出,init.c将会读取这个文件,核心的相关进程也将开启。
/Android41/system/core/init/init.c
重点是解析了init.rc文件,并且开始处理相关指令。找到main入口,贴出部分代码
mkdir("/dev", 0755); mkdir("/proc", 0755); mkdir("/sys", 0755); mount("tmpfs", "/dev", "tmpfs", MS_NOSUID, "mode=0755"); mkdir("/dev/pts", 0755); mkdir("/dev/socket", 0755); mount("devpts", "/dev/pts", "devpts", 0, NULL); mount("proc", "/proc", "proc", 0, NULL); mount("sysfs", "/sys", "sysfs", 0, NULL); /* indicate that booting is in progress to background fw loaders, etc */ close(open("/dev/.booting", O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0000)); /* We must have some place other than / to create the * device nodes for kmsg and null, otherwise we won't * be able to remount / read-only later on. * Now that tmpfs is mounted on /dev, we can actually * talk to the outside world. */ open_devnull_stdio(); klog_init(); property_init(); get_hardware_name(hardware, &revision); process_kernel_cmdline(); #ifdef HAVE_SELINUX INFO("loading selinux policy\n"); selinux_load_policy(); #endif is_charger = !strcmp(bootmode, "charger"); INFO("property init\n"); if (!is_charger) property_load_boot_defaults(); INFO("reading config file\n"); init_parse_config_file("/init.rc"); //读取rc文件
前面的都是初始化关键目录和挂载文件系统,系统硬件设备,系统属性等。
找到Android41/system/core/rootdir/init.rc
这个文件里面还包括,ServiceManager IPC服务管理者启动,surfaceflinger图像服务,bootanim启动动画,media媒体服务等。

app_process包括2个东西zygote和system server的启动
app_process启动代码在 frameworks/base/cmds/app_process/app_main.cpp
main中的主要代码。
while (i < argc) { const char* arg = argv[i++]; if (!parentDir) { parentDir = arg; } else if (strcmp(arg, "--zygote") == 0) { zygote = true; niceName = "zygote"; } else if (strcmp(arg, "--start-system-server") == 0) { startSystemServer = true; } else if (strcmp(arg, "--application") == 0) { application = true; } else if (strncmp(arg, "--nice-name=", 12) == 0) { niceName = arg + 12; } else { className = arg; break; } } if (niceName && *niceName) { setArgv0(argv0, niceName); set_process_name(niceName); } runtime.mParentDir = parentDir; if (zygote) { <strong>runtime.start("com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit", startSystemServer ? "start-system-server" : "");</strong> } else if (className) { // Remainder of args get passed to startup class main() runtime.mClassName = className; runtime.mArgC = argc - i; runtime.mArgV = argv + i; runtime.start("com.android.internal.os.RuntimeInit", application ? "application" : "tool"); } else { fprintf(stderr, "Error: no class name or --zygote supplied.\n"); app_usage(); LOG_ALWAYS_FATAL("app_process: no class name or --zygote supplied."); return 10; }
前面是解析传入的参数,判断是否启动zygote和RuntimeInit,AppRuntime是Android dvm 启动对象,
虚拟机的启动在/Android41/frameworks/base/core/jni/AndroidRuntime.cpp 里面包含了大量的初始化比如heap大小内存分配等,这里暂时不说。
先看ZygoteInit代码
/Android41/frameworks/base/core/java/com/android/internal/os/ZygoteInit.java
public static void main(String argv[]) { try { // Start profiling the zygote initialization. SamplingProfilerIntegration.start(); registerZygoteSocket(); EventLog.writeEvent(LOG_BOOT_PROGRESS_PRELOAD_START, SystemClock.uptimeMillis()); preload(); EventLog.writeEvent(LOG_BOOT_PROGRESS_PRELOAD_END, SystemClock.uptimeMillis()); // Finish profiling the zygote initialization. SamplingProfilerIntegration.writeZygoteSnapshot(); // Do an initial gc to clean up after startup gc(); // If requested, start system server directly from Zygote if (argv.length != 2) { throw new RuntimeException(argv[0] + USAGE_STRING); } if (argv[1].equals("start-system-server")) { startSystemServer(); } else if (!argv[1].equals("")) { throw new RuntimeException(argv[0] + USAGE_STRING); } Log.i(TAG, "Accepting command socket connections"); if (ZYGOTE_FORK_MODE) { runForkMode(); } else { runSelectLoopMode(); } closeServerSocket(); } catch (MethodAndArgsCaller caller) { caller.run(); } catch (RuntimeException ex) { Log.e(TAG, "Zygote died with exception", ex); closeServerSocket(); throw ex; } }
zygote主要是孵化app的,通过启动一个socketServer来接受app启动的请求,app启动是靠ActivityManagerService来发送Socket通信的。
下面看看启动SystemService
private static boolean startSystemServer() throws MethodAndArgsCaller, RuntimeException { /* Hardcoded command line to start the system server */ String args[] = { "--setuid=1000", "--setgid=1000", "--setgroups=1001,1002,1003,1004,1005,1006,1007,1008,1009,1010,1018,3001,3002,3003,3006,3007", "--capabilities=130104352,130104352", "--runtime-init", "--nice-name=system_server", "com.android.server.SystemServer", }; ZygoteConnection.Arguments parsedArgs = null; int pid; try { parsedArgs = new ZygoteConnection.Arguments(args); ZygoteConnection.applyDebuggerSystemProperty(parsedArgs); ZygoteConnection.applyInvokeWithSystemProperty(parsedArgs); /* Request to fork the system server process */ pid = Zygote.forkSystemServer( parsedArgs.uid, parsedArgs.gid, parsedArgs.gids, parsedArgs.debugFlags, null, parsedArgs.permittedCapabilities, parsedArgs.effectiveCapabilities); } catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) { throw new RuntimeException(ex); } /* For child process */ if (pid == 0) { handleSystemServerProcess(parsedArgs); } return true; }
这地方需要调用Zygote的静态方法
/Android41/libcore/dalvik/src/main/java/dalvik/system/Zygote.java 其实是需要调用对应的native方法.
forkSystemServer fork一个独立进程用于SystemServer
native方法在 /Android41/dalvik/vm/native/dalvik_system_zygote.cpp
fork成功后,就调用传入的参数com.android.server.SystemServer.java
SystemServer开启了Android应用层的大部分服务,包括电源管理,电池,网络 AMS WMS等。
frameworks/base/services/java/com/android/server/SystemServer 目录下面也包含了大量的相应的服务代码。
public static final void init2() { Slog.i(TAG, "Entered the Android system server!"); Thread thr = new ServerThread(); thr.setName("android.server.ServerThread"); thr.start(); }
init2函数是native方法
有 native public
static void init1(String[] args);调用。
找到对应的底层代码。
/AndroidSource/Android41/frameworks/base/services/jni/com_android_server_SystemServer.cpp
namespace android { extern "C" int system_init(); static void android_server_SystemServer_init1(JNIEnv* env, jobject clazz) { system_init(); } /* * JNI registration. */ static JNINativeMethod gMethods[] = { /* name, signature, funcPtr */ { "init1", "([Ljava/lang/String;)V", (void*) android_server_SystemServer_init1 },//注册了init1方法 }; int register_android_server_SystemServer(JNIEnv* env) { return jniRegisterNativeMethods(env, "com/android/server/SystemServer", gMethods, NELEM(gMethods)); } }; // namespace android
system_init()是个外部函数,到那找到函数体?
/AndroidSource/Android41/frameworks/base/services/jni/Android.mk文件中有添加静态Library
LOCAL_SHARED_LIBRARIES := libandroid_runtime libandroidfw libcutils libhardware libhardware_legacy libnativehelper libsystem_server libutils libui libinput libskia libgui libusbhost libsuspend
system_server和android_runtime是个关键.
system_server 在 /AndroidSource/Android41/frameworks/base/cmds/system_server 可以找到,可以看Android.mk文件知道模块都编译了那些文件
看System_init.cpp代码方法
extern "C" status_t system_init() { ALOGI("Entered system_init()"); sp<ProcessState> proc(ProcessState::self()); sp<IServiceManager> sm = defaultServiceManager(); ALOGI("ServiceManager: %p\n", sm.get()); sp<GrimReaper> grim = new GrimReaper(); sm->asBinder()->linkToDeath(grim, grim.get(), 0); char propBuf[PROPERTY_VALUE_MAX]; property_get("system_init.startsurfaceflinger", propBuf, "1"); if (strcmp(propBuf, "1") == 0) { // Start the SurfaceFlinger SurfaceFlinger::instantiate(); } property_get("system_init.startsensorservice", propBuf, "1"); if (strcmp(propBuf, "1") == 0) { // Start the sensor service SensorService::instantiate(); } // And now start the Android runtime. We have to do this bit // of nastiness because the Android runtime initialization requires // some of the core system services to already be started. // All other servers should just start the Android runtime at // the beginning of their processes's main(), before calling // the init function. ALOGI("System server: starting Android runtime.\n"); AndroidRuntime* runtime = AndroidRuntime::getRuntime(); ALOGI("System server: starting Android services.\n"); JNIEnv* env = runtime->getJNIEnv(); if (env == NULL) { return UNKNOWN_ERROR; } jclass clazz = env->FindClass("com/android/server/SystemServer"); if (clazz == NULL) { return UNKNOWN_ERROR; } jmethodID methodId = env->GetStaticMethodID(clazz, "init2", "()V"); if (methodId == NULL) { return UNKNOWN_ERROR; } env->CallStaticVoidMethod(clazz, methodId); ALOGI("System server: entering thread pool.\n"); ProcessState::self()->startThreadPool(); IPCThreadState::self()->joinThreadPool(); ALOGI("System server: exiting thread pool.\n"); return NO_ERROR; }
上面是jni相关操作,并不难理解。找到com.android.server.SystemServer类,执行init2方法
init2方法启动了线程开始了Android服务的加载和启动。
基本流程就是启动Zygote进程,虚拟机的创建,然后是SystemServer加载服务,当然还同时启动了其它服务包括ServiceManager,SurfaceFlinger程序。
下一部分详细分析SystemServer启动和ActivityManagerService启动应用程序。
画个图容易记住。
本文粗浅的介绍了一下Android启动流程,若有问题,请指出 谢谢。
