在Android 10.0中Activity的启动流程
摘要
Google将Android的版本更新到10.0版本（SDK-29）之后，我发现Acitivity的启动流程相比之前的版本发生了些变化，首先最大的变化是我们常见的用来管理Activity的AMS，在之后变成了ATMS（ActivityTaskManagerService）。
本文试图通过一张图来聊聊在Android 10.0版本中，一个Activity的启动流程究竟是怎样的。
Android 9.0和Android 10.0的一些区别
下面展示的是SDK-28和SDK-29两个版本在远程调用“AMS”的区别。他们都是通过调用远程服务来实现的，只是在SDK-29之后，抛弃了曾经的ActivityManagerService，改用ActivityTaskManagerService。
在这里解释一下ActivityManager和ActivityManagerService是什么关系，因为负责管理的Acitivity的服务和Activity不在一个进程，所以不能直接调用ActivityManagerService，而是通过Binder跨进程通信。Binder的工作原理不是本文的重点，在这里只要认为调用ActivityManager.getService().xxx()等于调用了另一个进程的ActivityManagerService.xxx()。
// frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/Instrumentation.java
// SDK-28
int result = ActivityManager.getService()
.startActivity(whoThread, who.getBasePackageName(), intent,
intent.resolveTypeIfNeeded(who.getContentResolver()),
token, target != null ? target.mEmbeddedID : null,
requestCode, 0, null, options);
// SDK-29
int result = ActivityTaskManager.getService()
.startActivity(whoThread, who.getBasePackageName(), intent,
intent.resolveTypeIfNeeded(who.getContentResolver()),
token, target != null ? target.mEmbeddedID : null,
requestCode, 0, null, options);
请求启动一个Activity
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\Activity.java
public void startActivity(Intent intent) {
this.startActivity(intent, null);
}
public void startActivity(Intent intent, @Nullable Bundle options) {
if (options != null) {
startActivityForResult(intent, -1, options);
} else {
startActivityForResult(intent, -1);
}
}
public void startActivityForResult(@RequiresPermission Intent intent, int requestCode) {
startActivityForResult(intent, requestCode, null);
}
public void startActivityForResult(@RequiresPermission Intent intent, int requestCode,
@Nullable Bundle options) {
if (mParent == null) {
options = transferSpringboardActivityOptions(options);
Instrumentation.ActivityResult ar =
mInstrumentation.execStartActivity(
this, mMainThread.getApplicationThread(), mToken, this,
intent, requestCode, options);
if (ar != null) {
mMainThread.sendActivityResult(
mToken, mEmbeddedID, requestCode, ar.getResultCode(),
ar.getResultData());
}
if (requestCode >= 0) {
mStartedActivity = true;
}
cancelInputsAndStartExitTransition(options);
} else {
if (options != null) {
mParent.startActivityFromChild(this, intent, requestCode, options);
} else {
mParent.startActivityFromChild(this, intent, requestCode);
}
}
}
public void startActivityFromChild(@NonNull Activity child, @RequiresPermission Intent intent,
int requestCode) {
startActivityFromChild(child, intent, requestCode, null);
}
public void startActivityFromChild(@NonNull Activity child, @RequiresPermission Intent intent,
int requestCode, @Nullable Bundle options) {
options = transferSpringboardActivityOptions(options);
Instrumentation.ActivityResult ar =
mInstrumentation.execStartActivity(
this, mMainThread.getApplicationThread(), mToken, child,
intent, requestCode, options);
if (ar != null) {
mMainThread.sendActivityResult(
mToken, child.mEmbeddedID, requestCode,
ar.getResultCode(), ar.getResultData());
}
cancelInputsAndStartExitTransition(options);
}
调用startActivity动Activity最终都会调用到startActivityForResult无论mParent是不是空，最终也都会调用Instrumentation#execStartActivity。
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\Instrumentation.java
public ActivityResult execStartActivity(
Context who, IBinder contextThread, IBinder token, Activity target,
Intent intent, int requestCode, Bundle options) {
IApplicationThread whoThread = (IApplicationThread) contextThread;
// ......
try {
intent.migrateExtraStreamToClipData();
intent.prepareToLeaveProcess(who);
int result = ActivityTaskManager.getService()
.startActivity(whoThread, who.getBasePackageName(), intent,
intent.resolveTypeIfNeeded(who.getContentResolver()),
token, target != null ? target.mEmbeddedID : null,
requestCode, 0, null, options);
checkStartActivityResult(result, intent);
} catch (RemoteException e) {
throw new RuntimeException("Failure from system", e);
}
return null;
}
来到Instrumentation#execStartActivity，ActivityTaskManager.getService()返回的是IActivityTaskManager接口，这是远程调用的接口，执行IActivityTaskManager#startActivity之后相当于当前线程将启动Activity的消息发送出去了。
// frameworks\base\services\core\java\com\android\server\wm\ActivityTaskManagerService.java
public final int startActivity(IApplicationThread caller, String callingPackage,
Intent intent, String resolvedType, IBinder resultTo, String resultWho, int requestCode,
int startFlags, ProfilerInfo profilerInfo, Bundle bOptions) {
return startActivityAsUser(caller, callingPackage, intent, resolvedType, resultTo,
resultWho, requestCode, startFlags, profilerInfo, bOptions,
UserHandle.getCallingUserId());
}
public int startActivityAsUser(IApplicationThread caller, String callingPackage,
Intent intent, String resolvedType, IBinder resultTo, String resultWho, int requestCode,
int startFlags, ProfilerInfo profilerInfo, Bundle bOptions, int userId) {
return startActivityAsUser(caller, callingPackage, intent, resolvedType, resultTo,
resultWho, requestCode, startFlags, profilerInfo, bOptions, userId,
true /*validateIncomingUser*/);
}
int startActivityAsUser(IApplicationThread caller, String callingPackage,
Intent intent, String resolvedType, IBinder resultTo, String resultWho, int requestCode,
int startFlags, ProfilerInfo profilerInfo, Bundle bOptions, int userId,
boolean validateIncomingUser) {
enforceNotIsolatedCaller("startActivityAsUser");
userId = getActivityStartController().checkTargetUser(userId, validateIncomingUser,
Binder.getCallingPid(), Binder.getCallingUid(), "startActivityAsUser");
return getActivityStartController().obtainStarter(intent, "startActivityAsUser")
.setCaller(caller)
.setCallingPackage(callingPackage)
.setResolvedType(resolvedType)
.setResultTo(resultTo)
.setResultWho(resultWho)
.setRequestCode(requestCode)
.setStartFlags(startFlags)
.setProfilerInfo(profilerInfo)
.setActivityOptions(bOptions)
.setMayWait(userId) // Ⅰ 注意这个方法，在这个方法里有一句 mRequest.mayWait = true;
.execute();
}
ActivityTaskManagerService所在的进程接受到了消息后，就开始执行startActivity方法，接着调用的是startActivityAsUser方法，在这里我们构造ActivityStarter来继续完成Activity的启动，我们接着来看ActivityStarter#execute
frameworks\base\services\core\java\com\android\server\wm\ActivityStarter.java
int execute() {
try {
if (mRequest.mayWait) {

mRootActivityContainer.updateUserStack(mStartActivity.mUserId, mTargetStack);
mSupervisor.handleNonResizableTaskIfNeeded(mStartActivity.getTaskRecord(),
preferredWindowingMode, mPreferredDisplayId, mTargetStack);
return START_SUCCESS;
}
注意前面的注释Ⅰ，mRequest.mayWait在这里被赋值为true，所以会走到startActivityMayWait方法，然后调用startActivity->startActivity->startActivity->startActivityUnchecked，最终我们走到了startActivityUnchecked方法，然后我们会调用RootActivityContainer#resumeFocusedStacksTopActivities
// frameworks\base\services\core\java\com\android\server\wm\RootActivityContainer.java
boolean resumeFocusedStacksTopActivities(
ActivityStack targetStack, ActivityRecord target, ActivityOptions targetOptions) {
if (!mStackSupervisor.readyToResume()) {
return false;
}
boolean result = false;
if (targetStack != null && (targetStack.isTopStackOnDisplay()
|| getTopDisplayFocusedStack() == targetStack)) {
result = targetStack.resumeTopActivityUncheckedLocked(target, targetOptions);
}
for (int displayNdx = mActivityDisplays.size() - 1; displayNdx >= 0; --displayNdx) {
boolean resumedOnDisplay = false;
final ActivityDisplay display = mActivityDisplays.get(displayNdx);
for (int stackNdx = display.getChildCount() - 1; stackNdx >= 0; --stackNdx) {
final ActivityStack stack = display.getChildAt(stackNdx);
final ActivityRecord topRunningActivity = stack.topRunningActivityLocked();
if (!stack.isFocusableAndVisible() || topRunningActivity == null) {
continue;
}
if (stack == targetStack) {
resumedOnDisplay |= result;
continue;
}
if (display.isTopStack(stack) && topRunningActivity.isState(RESUMED)) {
stack.executeAppTransition(targetOptions);
} else {
resumedOnDisplay |= topRunningActivity.makeActiveIfNeeded(target);
}
}
if (!resumedOnDisplay) {
final ActivityStack focusedStack = display.getFocusedStack();
if (focusedStack != null) {
focusedStack.resumeTopActivityUncheckedLocked(target, targetOptions);
}
}
}
return result;
}
通过RootActivityContainer，我们将调用ActivityStack#resumeTopActivityUncheckedLocked
// frameworks\base\services\core\java\com\android\server\wm\ActivityStack.java
boolean resumeTopActivityUncheckedLocked(ActivityRecord prev, ActivityOptions options) {
// ......
try {
mInResumeTopActivity = true;
result = resumeTopActivityInnerLocked(prev, options);
final ActivityRecord next = topRunningActivityLocked(true /* focusableOnly */);
if (next == null || !next.canTurnScreenOn()) {
checkReadyForSleep();
}
} finally {
mInResumeTopActivity = false;
}
return result;
}
boolean resumeTopActivityInnerLocked(ActivityRecord prev, ActivityOptions options) {
// ......
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()) {
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;
}
// ......
} else {
// Whoops, need to restart this activity!
if (!next.hasBeenLaunched) {
next.hasBeenLaunched = true;
} else {
if (SHOW_APP_STARTING_PREVIEW) {
next.showStartingWindow(null /* prev */, false /* newTask */,
false /* taskSwich */);
}
if (DEBUG_SWITCH) Slog.v(TAG_SWITCH, "Restarting: " + next);
}
if (DEBUG_STATES) Slog.d(TAG_STATES, "resumeTopActivityLocked: Restarting " + next);
mStackSupervisor.startSpecificActivityLocked(next, true, true);
}
return true;
}
final boolean startPausingLocked(boolean userLeaving, boolean uiSleeping,
ActivityRecord resuming, boolean pauseImmediately) {
// ......
if (prev.attachedToProcess()) {
if (DEBUG_PAUSE) Slog.v(TAG_PAUSE, "Enqueueing pending pause: " + prev);
try {
EventLogTags.writeAmPauseActivity(prev.mUserId, System.identityHashCode(prev),
prev.shortComponentName, "userLeaving=" + userLeaving);
mService.getLifecycleManager().scheduleTransaction(prev.app.getThread(),
prev.appToken, PauseActivityItem.obtain(prev.finishing, userLeaving,
prev.configChangeFlags, pauseImmediately));
} catch (Exception e) {
// ......
}
}
// ......
}
到了这一步，走到一个关键的类ActivityStack，这个类决定怎样发送生命周期的信号到应用进程。resumeTopActivityUncheckedLocked会调用resumeTopActivityInnerLocked。在这个函数里，会有两个重要的操作，一个是对应流程图里橙色的那条线，调用函数startPausingLocked，通知上一个Activity执行onPause；另一个是通知启动新的Activity，对应的是流程图中绿色的线。
先走的是橙色（pause）
mService.getLifecycleManager().scheduleTransaction(prev.app.getThread(),
prev.appToken, PauseActivityItem.obtain(prev.finishing, userLeaving,
prev.configChangeFlags, pauseImmediately));
注意到我们这里构建了一个PauseActivityItem对象传入，这个对象将会在后面的IPC过程中传到Activity所在的进程。我们通过mService.getLifecycleManager()得到的是ClientLifecycleManager，scheduleTransaction方法有多个重载，这里调用到的是下面的方法
// frameworks\base\services\core\java\com\android\server\wm\ClientLifecycleManager.java
void scheduleTransaction(@NonNull IApplicationThread client, @NonNull IBinder activityToken,
@NonNull ActivityLifecycleItem stateRequest) throws RemoteException {
final ClientTransaction clientTransaction = transactionWithState(client, activityToken,
stateRequest);
scheduleTransaction(clientTransaction);
}
void scheduleTransaction(ClientTransaction transaction) throws RemoteException {
final IApplicationThread client = transaction.getClient();
transaction.schedule();
if (!(client instanceof Binder)) {
transaction.recycle();
}
}
private static ClientTransaction transactionWithState(@NonNull IApplicationThread client,
@NonNull IBinder activityToken, @NonNull ActivityLifecycleItem stateRequest) {
final ClientTransaction clientTransaction = ClientTransaction.obtain(client, activityToken);
clientTransaction.setLifecycleStateRequest(stateRequest);
return clientTransaction;
}
在这里有个细节，我们用transactionWithState方法重新构造了ClientTransaction对象传入（ActivityLifecycleItem 继承自ClientTransaction），transactionWithState里面将PauseActivityItem通过setLifecycleStateRequest方法传入clientTransaction，之后就执行ClientTransaction#schedule。
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\servertransaction\ClientTransaction.java
public void schedule() throws RemoteException {
mClient.scheduleTransaction(this);
}
这里mClient是接口IApplicationThread的，可以看出这是一个远程调用，具体的实现就在Activity所在的进程。可以猜到这里的目的就是告诉应用进程“你的启动Activity的要求我已经收到了，你现在去pause上一个activity吧”。
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\ActivityThread.java
private class ApplicationThread extends IApplicationThread.Stub {
public void scheduleTransaction(ClientTransaction transaction) throws RemoteException {
ActivityThread.this.scheduleTransaction(transaction);
}
}
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\ClientTransactionHandler.java
void scheduleTransaction(ClientTransaction transaction) {
transaction.preExecute(this);
sendMessage(ActivityThread.H.EXECUTE_TRANSACTION, transaction);
}
具体的实现有ActivityThread的内部类ApplicationThread 来完成，我们发现它调用的是它的外部类方法ActivityThread#scheduleTransaction。事实上ActivityThread并没有对应的实现，我们最终调用的是它父类ClientTransactionHandler的方法。
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\ActivityThread.java
void sendMessage(int what, Object obj) {
sendMessage(what, obj, 0, 0, false);
}
private void sendMessage(int what, Object obj, int arg1) {
sendMessage(what, obj, arg1, 0, false);
}
private void sendMessage(int what, Object obj, int arg1, int arg2) {
sendMessage(what, obj, arg1, arg2, false);
}
private void sendMessage(int what, Object obj, int arg1, int arg2, boolean async) {
if (DEBUG_MESSAGES) {
Slog.v(TAG,
"SCHEDULE " + what + " " + mH.codeToString(what) + ": " + arg1 + " / " + obj);
}
Message msg = Message.obtain();
msg.what = what;
msg.obj = obj;
msg.arg1 = arg1;
msg.arg2 = arg2;
if (async) {
msg.setAsynchronous(true);
}
mH.sendMessage(msg);
}
在这里我们明显可以看出来这里mH应该是一个Handler类，然后将具体的操作交给Handler来处理。
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\ActivityThread.java
case EXECUTE_TRANSACTION:
final ClientTransaction transaction = (ClientTransaction) msg.obj;
mTransactionExecutor.execute(transaction);
if (isSystem()) {
transaction.recycle();
}
break;
这个mH事实上也是ActivityThread的一个内部类，类名就是一个大写的H。所以最终具体的实现可以在H#handleMessage里找到：
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\servertransaction\TransactionExecutor.java
public void execute(ClientTransaction transaction) {
// ......
executeCallbacks(transaction);
executeLifecycleState(transaction);
mPendingActions.clear();
if (DEBUG_RESOLVER) Slog.d(TAG, tId(transaction) + "End resolving transaction");
}
private void executeLifecycleState(ClientTransaction transaction) {
final ActivityLifecycleItem lifecycleItem = transaction.getLifecycleStateRequest();
// ......
lifecycleItem.execute(mTransactionHandler, token, mPendingActions);
lifecycleItem.postExecute(mTransactionHandler, token, mPendingActions);
}
还记得前面的clientTransaction.setLifecycleStateRequest(stateRequest);吗？在这里取出来然后调用它的execute方法。前面强调过传入的其实是PauseActivityItem，那么在这里执行的就是PauseActivityItem#execute，进到这个方法
// frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/servertransaction/PauseActivityItem.java
public void execute(ClientTransactionHandler client, IBinder token,
PendingTransactionActions pendingActions) {
Trace.traceBegin(TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "activityPause");
client.handlePauseActivity(token, mFinished, mUserLeaving, mConfigChanges, pendingActions,
"PAUSE_ACTIVITY_ITEM");
Trace.traceEnd(TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
}
在这里会调用ClientTransactionHandler #handlePauseActivity方法，ActivityThread继承自ClientTransactionHandler ，实际上这个client就是ActivityThread
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\ActivityThread.java
public void handlePauseActivity(IBinder token, boolean finished, boolean userLeaving,
int configChanges, PendingTransactionActions pendingActions, String reason) {
ActivityClientRecord r = mActivities.get(token);
if (r != null) {
if (userLeaving) {
performUserLeavingActivity(r);
}
r.activity.mConfigChangeFlags |= configChanges;
performPauseActivity(r, finished, reason, pendingActions);
if (r.isPreHoneycomb()) {
QueuedWork.waitToFinish();
}
mSomeActivitiesChanged = true;
}
}
final Bundle performPauseActivity(IBinder token, boolean finished, String reason,
PendingTransactionActions pendingActions) {
ActivityClientRecord r = mActivities.get(token);
return r != null ? performPauseActivity(r, finished, reason, pendingActions) : null;
}
private Bundle performPauseActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, boolean finished, String reason,
PendingTransactionActions pendingActions) {
// ......
final boolean shouldSaveState = !r.activity.mFinished && r.isPreHoneycomb();
if (shouldSaveState) {
callActivityOnSaveInstanceState(r);
}
performPauseActivityIfNeeded(r, reason);
ArrayList<OnActivityPausedListener> listeners;
synchronized (mOnPauseListeners) {
listeners = mOnPauseListeners.remove(r.activity);
}
int size = (listeners != null ? listeners.size() : 0);
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
listeners.get(i).onPaused(r.activity);
}
// ......
return shouldSaveState ? r.state : null;
}
private void performPauseActivityIfNeeded(ActivityClientRecord r, String reason) {
// ......
try {
r.activity.mCalled = false;
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnPause(r.activity);
if (!r.activity.mCalled) {
throw new SuperNotCalledException("Activity " + safeToComponentShortString(r.intent)
+ " did not call through to super.onPause()");
}
} catch (SuperNotCalledException e) {
throw e;
} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(r.activity, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException("Unable to pause activity "
+ safeToComponentShortString(r.intent) + ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}
r.setState(ON_PAUSE);
}
经过handlePauseActivity -> performPauseActivity -> performPauseActivity -> performPauseActivityIfNeeded一路下来，我们又看到这个mInstrumentation，由它将实际的生命周期分发到我们Activity，我们可以猜测，Activity的生命正式由他来掌管的。
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\Instrumentation.java
public void callActivityOnPause(Activity activity) {
activity.performPause();
}
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\Activity.java
final void performPause() {
dispatchActivityPrePaused();
mDoReportFullyDrawn = false;
mFragments.dispatchPause();
mCalled = false;
onPause();
writeEventLog(LOG_AM_ON_PAUSE_CALLED, "performPause");
mResumed = false;
if (!mCalled && getApplicationInfo().targetSdkVersion
>= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.GINGERBREAD) {
throw new SuperNotCalledException(
"Activity " + mComponent.toShortString() +
" did not call through to super.onPause()");
}
dispatchActivityPostPaused();
}
最终通过Instrumentation调用到Activity#performPause，经过了一大圈Activity的onPause最终在这里被调用。
然后走的绿色（create）
// frameworks\base\services\core\java\com\android\server\wm\ActivityStack.java
boolean resumeTopActivityInnerLocked(ActivityRecord prev, ActivityOptions options) {
// ......
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()) {
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;
}
// ......
} else {
// Whoops, need to restart this activity!
if (!next.hasBeenLaunched) {
next.hasBeenLaunched = true;
} else {
if (SHOW_APP_STARTING_PREVIEW) {
next.showStartingWindow(null /* prev */, false /* newTask */,
false /* taskSwich */);
}
if (DEBUG_SWITCH) Slog.v(TAG_SWITCH, "Restarting: " + next);
}
if (DEBUG_STATES) Slog.d(TAG_STATES, "resumeTopActivityLocked: Restarting " + next);
mStackSupervisor.startSpecificActivityLocked(next, true, true);
}
return true;
}
回到ActivityStack#resumeTopActivityInnerLocked，在这里执行startPausingLocked(userLeaving, false, next, false);之后再往后走就准备创建新的Activity。会执行到StackSupervisor#startSpecificActivityLocked
// frameworks\base\services\core\java\com\android\server\wm\ActivityStackSupervisor.java
void startSpecificActivityLocked(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 {
realStartActivityLocked(r, wpc, andResume, checkConfig);
return;
} catch (RemoteException e) {
Slog.w(TAG, "Exception when starting activity "
+ r.intent.getComponent().flattenToShortString(), e);
}
knownToBeDead = true;
}
// ......
}
boolean realStartActivityLocked(ActivityRecord r, WindowProcessController proc,
boolean andResume, boolean checkConfig) throws RemoteException {
try {
if (!proc.hasThread()) {
throw new RemoteException();
}
// Create activity launch transaction.
final ClientTransaction clientTransaction = ClientTransaction.obtain(
proc.getThread(), r.appToken);
final DisplayContent dc = r.getDisplay().mDisplayContent;

startSpecificActivityLocked会调用realStartActivityLocked，然后构建一个LaunchActivityItem对象，根据前面的经验这里面应该包含了创建Activity的操作，但是跟前面有所不同的是，这个LaunchActivityItem是通过clientTransaction#addCallback注入到clientTransaction里面，而之前的PauseActivityItem是通过clientTransaction.setLifecycleStateRequest。另外LaunchActivityItem继承自ClientTransactionItem，而PauseActivityItem继承自ActivityLifecycleItem。
然后就是调用mService.getLifecycleManager().scheduleTransaction(clientTransaction)，前面已经分析过这个过程，这里不在赘述，需要关注的是到达应用进程后又做了什么事情。
// frameworks\base\core\java\android\app\servertransaction\TransactionExecutor.java
public void execute(ClientTransaction transaction) {
// ......
executeCallbacks(transaction);
executeLifecycleState(transaction);
mPendingActions.clear();
if (DEBUG_RESOLVER) Slog.d(TAG, tId(transaction) + "End resolving transaction");
}
public void executeCallbacks(ClientTransaction transaction) {
final List<ClientTransactionItem> callbacks = transaction.getCallbacks();
ctivityClientRecord r = mTransactionHandler.getActivityClient(token);
final ActivityLifecycleItem finalStateRequest = transaction.getLifecycleStateRequest();
final int size = callbacks.size();
for (int i = 0; i < size; ++i) {
// ......
item.execute(mTransactionHandler, token, mPendingActions);
item.postExecute(mTransactionHandler, token, mPendingActions);
if (r == null) {
// Launch activity request will create an activity record.
r = mTransactionHandler.getActivityClient(token);
}
if (postExecutionState != UNDEFINED && r != null) {
final boolean shouldExcludeLastTransition =
i == lastCallbackRequestingState && finalState == postExecutionState;
cycleToPath(r, postExecutionState, shouldExcludeLastTransition, transaction);
}
}
}
刚刚说到LaunchActivityItem是通过clientTransaction#addCallback加入的所以这里遭到executeCallbacks，但其实也一样，取出来执行execute方法。
// frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/servertransaction/LaunchActivityItem.java
public void execute(ClientTransactionHandler client, IBinder token,
PendingTransactionActions pendingActions) {
Trace.traceBegin(TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "activityStart");
ActivityClientRecord r = new ActivityClientRecord(token, mIntent, mIdent, mInfo,
mOverrideConfig, mCompatInfo, mReferrer, mVoiceInteractor, mState, mPersistentState,
mPendingResults, mPendingNewIntents, mIsForward,
mProfilerInfo, client, mAssistToken);
client.handleLaunchActivity(r, pendingActions, null /* customIntent */);
Trace.traceEnd(TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
}
// frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/ActivityThread.java
public Activity handleLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r,
PendingTransactionActions pendingActions, Intent customIntent) {
// ......
final Activity a = performLaunchActivity(r, customIntent);
// ......
return a;
}
private Activity performLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {
// ......
ContextImpl appContext = createBaseContextForActivity(r);
Activity activity = null;
try {
java.lang.ClassLoader cl = appContext.getClassLoader();
activity = mInstrumentation.newActivity(
cl, component.getClassName(), r.intent);
StrictMode.incrementExpectedActivityCount(activity.getClass());
r.intent.setExtrasClassLoader(cl);
r.intent.prepareToEnterProcess();
if (r.state != null) {
r.state.setClassLoader(cl);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(activity, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to instantiate activity " + component
+ ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}
try {
Application app = r.packageInfo.makeApplication(false, mInstrumentation);
if (localLOGV) Slog.v(TAG, "Performing launch of " + r);
if (localLOGV) Slog.v(
TAG, r + ": app=" + app
+ ", appName=" + app.getPackageName()
+ ", pkg=" + r.packageInfo.getPackageName()
+ ", comp=" + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString()
+ ", dir=" + r.packageInfo.getAppDir());
if (activity != null) {
CharSequence title = r.activityInfo.loadLabel(appContext.getPackageManager());
Configuration config = new Configuration(mCompatConfiguration);
if (r.overrideConfig != null) {
config.updateFrom(r.overrideConfig);
}
if (DEBUG_CONFIGURATION) Slog.v(TAG, "Launching activity "
+ r.activityInfo.name + " with config " + config);
Window window = null;
if (r.mPendingRemoveWindow != null && r.mPreserveWindow) {
window = r.mPendingRemoveWindow;
r.mPendingRemoveWindow = null;
r.mPendingRemoveWindowManager = null;
}
appContext.setOuterContext(activity);
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;
}
r.lastNonConfigurationInstances = null;
checkAndBlockForNetworkAccess();
activity.mStartedActivity = false;
int theme = r.activityInfo.getThemeResource();
if (theme != 0) {
activity.setTheme(theme);
}
activity.mCalled = false;
if (r.isPersistable()) {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state, r.persistentState);
} else {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state);
}
if (!activity.mCalled) {
throw new SuperNotCalledException(
"Activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() +
" did not call through to super.onCreate()");
}
r.activity = activity;
}
r.setState(ON_CREATE);
// updatePendingActivityConfiguration() reads from mActivities to update
// ActivityClientRecord which runs in a different thread. Protect modifications to
// mActivities to avoid race.
synchronized (mResourcesManager) {
mActivities.put(r.token, r);
}
} catch (SuperNotCalledException e) {
throw e;
} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(activity, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to start activity " + component
+ ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}
return activity;
}
这里跟也是一样最终调用的是ActivityThread的handleLaunchActivity，去除掉非核心代码他调用到了performLaunchActivity。在这里可以看见它通过Instrumentation#newActivity构造了一个Activity对象，然后调用Instrumentation#callActivityOnCreate。根据前面的经验，会继续调用Activity的performCreate方法，然后在调用onCreate方法，这就是我们写Activity最熟悉的地方了。
总结
Activity的启动流程以及生命周期的调用是一个相当复杂的过程，涉及到的也不仅仅是这两个进程。只是在分析的过程中要有选择的忽略调一些细节，抓住主要矛盾，慢慢就会发现相同的机制被应用在不同的地方，理解了其中一个也就理解很多其他相同的机制。
阅读这么复杂的源码不要追求只读一遍就能动，要反复的看，多次的重复之后是可以加深理解的。同时也多参考一些博客，说不定这个人写的看不懂，看另外一个人的可能就会有一种茅塞顿开的感觉。
