Zygote进程启动过程源代码分析
Zygote进程介绍
在Android系统中，存在不同的服务，这些服务可以分为：
Android系统借用Binder通信机制实现了C/S架构设计，客户端应用程序如需要实现某些功能，只需请求指定的服务，由服务端来实现。Android服务包括以上的系统服务和应用服务，系统服务是指Android系统在启动过程就已经启动实现了的服务，对于系统服务又分为Java服务和本地服务，其实很好区分，Java服务是由Java代码编写而成，由SystemServer进程提供，而本地服务是由C/C++实现的服务，由Init进程在系统启动时启动的服务。应用服务是由开发者自行实现的某些特定服务。对于本地系统服务，我们知道它们是由Init进程来启动的，那对于Java系统服务，又是如何启动的呢？
所有的应用程序进程以及系统服务进程SystemServer都是由Zygote进程孕育（fork）出来的，zygote和system_server分别是Java世界的半边天，任何一个进程的死亡都会导致Java崩溃。zygote本身是Native应用程序，与驱动内核无关。zygote进程对应的具体程序是“app_process”，这个可执行文件名称在Android.mk文件中指定，在Zygote进程启动时，将进程名称设置为"zygote"。
我们知道，Android系统是基于Linux内核的，而在Linux系统中，所有的进程都是init进程的子孙进程，也就是说，所有的进程都是直接或者间接地由init进程fork出来的。Zygote进程也不例外，它是在系统启动的过程，由init进程创建的。在系统启动脚本system/core/rootdir/init.rc文件中。
//关键字service告诉init进程创建一个名为"zygote"的进程，这个zygote进程要执行的程序是/system/bin/app_process，后面是要传给app_process的参数。
service zygote /system/bin/app_process -Xzygote /system/bin --zygote --start-system-server //socket关键字表示这个zygote进程需要一个名称为"zygote"的socket资源，这样，系统启动后，我们就可以在/dev/socket目录下看到有一个名为zygote的文件。这里定义的socket的类型为unix domain socket，它是用来作本地进程间通信用的

-Xzygote：该参数将作为虚拟机启动时所需的参数；
/system/bin：代表虚拟机程序所在目录；
--zygote：指明以ZygoteInit.java类中的main函数作为虚拟机执行入口；
--start-system-server：告诉Zygote进程启动SystemServer进程；

Zygote启动分为两个阶段：
1. 虚拟机启动 --- 通过native启动
startVm(&mJavaVM, &env) 启动虚拟机
onVmCreated(env) 虚拟机启动后的初始化
startReg(env) 注册JNI函数
env->CallStaticVoidMethod(startClass, startMeth, strArray) 调用ZygoteInit类的main函数开创java世界
2.SystemServer进程 --- 通过Java启动
registerZygoteSocket() 为zygote进程注册监听socket
preload() 加载常用的JAVA类和系统资源
startSystemServer() 启动SystemServer进程
runSelectLoopMode() 进入循环监听模式
closeServerSocket() 进程退出时，关闭socket监听

2.SystemServer进程 --- 通过Java启动
registerZygoteSocket() 为zygote进程注册监听socket
preload() 加载常用的JAVA类和系统资源
startSystemServer() 启动SystemServer进程
runSelectLoopMode() 进入循环监听模式
closeServerSocket() 进程退出时，关闭socket监听
Zygote进程包含两个主要模块：
1. Socket服务端，该Socket服务端用于接收启动新的Dalvik进程命令。
2. Framework共享类及共享资源，当Zygote进程启动后，会装载一些共享类和资源，共享类是在preload-classes文件中定义的，共享资源是在preload-resources文件中定义。因为其他Dalvik进程是由Zygote进程孵化出来的，因此只要Zygote装载好了这些类和资源后，新的Dalvik进程就不需要在装载这些类和资源了，它们共享Zygote进程的资源和类。
app_process
App_main.cpp
Zygote进程是通过app_process启动的，app_process通过解析命令行参数，然后启动一个Android虚拟机，调用Java的入口函数从而启动一个进程，app_process也可以启动其他进程，比如monkey，am，pm等。
int main(int argc, const char* const argv[])
{
//zygote 是由init进程fork而来，init.rc文件中为zygote进程设置的启动参数如下
//argc = 4
//argv = [-Xzygote, /system/bin, --zygote, --start-system-server]
// These are global variables in ProcessState.cpp
mArgC = argc;
mArgV = argv;
mArgLen = 0;
for (int i=0; i
从上面的代码可以知道，app_process就是通过启动一个Android虚拟机并加载相应的Java类来启动一个进程。

};调用Java类的入口函数
AndroidRuntime通过JNI方式调用Java类的入口main函数，从此开辟了Java世界。在这里通过传递不同的启动类，就可以实现通过app_process启动不同的进程，前面分析app_process的main函数时，已经知道对于zygote进程来说，传递的启动类为com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit，而如果是启动其他进程则传递的是com.android.internal.os.RuntimeInit。
Zygote进程启动
从C++层调用Java层的ZygoteInit类的main函数，从此开辟了Java世界。
public static void main(String argv[]) {
//传入的参数argv = ["com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit","true"]
try {
//设置虚拟机的最小堆栈大小
VMRuntime.getRuntime().setMinimumHeapSize(5 * 1024 * 1024);
// Start profiling the zygote initialization.启动性能统计
SamplingProfilerIntegration.start();
//注册zygote等待客户端连接的socket
registerZygoteSocket();
EventLog.writeEvent(LOG_BOOT_PROGRESS_PRELOAD_START, SystemClock.uptimeMillis());
//预加载java类和资源
preloadClasses();
preloadResources();
EventLog.writeEvent(LOG_BOOT_PROGRESS_PRELOAD_END,SystemClock.uptimeMillis());
// Finish profiling the zygote initialization.结束统计并生成结果文件
SamplingProfilerIntegration.writeZygoteSnapshot();
// Do an initial gc to clean up after startup，执行垃圾回收
gc();
// If requested, start system server directly from Zygote
if (argv.length != 2) {
throw new RuntimeException(argv[0] + USAGE_STRING);
}
if (argv[1].equals("true")) {
//启动SystemServer进程
startSystemServer();
} else if (!argv[1].equals("false")) {
throw new RuntimeException(argv[0] + USAGE_STRING);
}
Log.i(TAG, "Accepting command socket connections");
//boolean ZYGOTE_FORK_MODE = false； 因此调用runSelectLoopMode()函数
if (ZYGOTE_FORK_MODE) {
runForkMode();
} else {
runSelectLoopMode();
}
closeServerSocket(); //关闭socket
} catch (MethodAndArgsCaller caller) {
//捕获SytemServer进程调用RuntimeInit.java 中zygoteInit函数抛出的MethodAndArgsCaller异常
caller.run();
} catch (RuntimeException ex) {
Log.e(TAG, "Zygote died with exception", ex);
closeServerSocket();
throw ex;
}
}在以上ZygoteInit类的main中完成以下五个工作：
① registerZygoteSocket() 为zygote进程注册监听socket
② preload() 加载常用的JAVA类和系统资源
③ startSystemServer() 启动SystemServer进程
④ runSelectLoopMode() 进入循环监听模式
⑤ closeServerSocket() 进程退出时，关闭socket监听
启动Socket服务端口
zygote 并没有采用binder通信机制，而是采用基于AF_UNIX类型的socket通信方式
private static void registerZygoteSocket() {
if (sServerSocket == null) {
int fileDesc;
try {
//从环境变量中获取文件句柄，这个socket接口是通过文件描述符来创建的，这个文件描符代表的就是我们前面说的/dev/socket/zygote文件了。这个文件描述符是通过环境变量ANDROID_SOCKET_ENV得到的，关于socket的创建及环境变量的设置请参考init进程源码分析
String env = System.getenv(ANDROID_SOCKET_ENV);
fileDesc = Integer.parseInt(env);
} catch (RuntimeException ex) {
throw new RuntimeException(ANDROID_SOCKET_ENV + " unset or invalid", ex);
}
try {
//创建服务端socket，该socket将监听并接受客户端请求
sServerSocket = new LocalServerSocket(createFileDescriptor(fileDesc));
} catch (IOException ex) {
throw new RuntimeException("Error binding to local socket '" + fileDesc + "'", ex);
}
}
}函数首先调用System.getenv()获取系统为Zygote进程分配的Socket文件描述符，然后调用createFileDescriptor(fileDesc)创建一个真正的Socket文件描述符。Socket的使用方式有：
1. 阻塞方式：使用listen()监听某个端口，然后调用read()函数从这个端口读取数据，当Socket端口没有数据时，read()函数将一直等待，直到读取到数据才返回；
2. 非阻塞方式：使用Linux系统调用select()函数监测Socket文件描述符，当该文件描述符上有数据时，自动触发中断，在中断处理函数中去读取文件描述符上的数据，LocalServerSocket就是对非阻塞式Socket的封装；
预加载类和资源
private static void preloadClasses() {
final VMRuntime runtime = VMRuntime.getRuntime();
//通过反射机制获取输入流，类资源文件为"preloaded-classes"
InputStream is = ZygoteInit.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(PRELOADED_CLASSES);
if (is == null) {
Log.e(TAG, "Couldn't find " + PRELOADED_CLASSES + ".");
} else {
Log.i(TAG, "Preloading classes...");
long startTime = SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
// Drop root perms while running static initializers.
//设置有效组ID和有效用户ID
setEffectiveGroup(UNPRIVILEGED_GID);
setEffectiveUser(UNPRIVILEGED_UID);
// Alter the target heap utilization. With explicit GCs this
// is not likely to have any effect.
float defaultUtilization = runtime.getTargetHeapUtilization();
runtime.setTargetHeapUtilization(0.8f);
// Start with a clean slate.
runtime.gcSoftReferences();
runtime.runFinalizationSync();
Debug.startAllocCounting();
try {
BufferedReader br= new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is), 256);
int count = 0;
String line;
//一行一行读取文件内容
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
// Skip comments and blank lines.
line = line.trim();
if (line.startsWith("#") || line.equals("")) {
continue;
}
try {
if (Config.LOGV) {
Log.v(TAG, "Preloading " + line + "...");
}
//通过Java反射机制加载类，每一行储存的是类名
Class.forName(line);
if (Debug.getGlobalAllocSize() > PRELOAD_GC_THRESHOLD) {
if (Config.LOGV) {
Log.v(TAG," GC at " + Debug.getGlobalAllocSize());
}
runtime.gcSoftReferences();
runtime.runFinalizationSync();
Debug.resetGlobalAllocSize();
}
count++;
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
Log.w(TAG, "Class not found for preloading: " + line);
} catch (Throwable t) {
Log.e(TAG, "Error preloading " + line + ".", t);
if (t instanceof Error) {
throw (Error) t;
}
if (t instanceof RuntimeException) {
throw (RuntimeException) t;
}
throw new RuntimeException(t);
}
}
Log.i(TAG, "...preloaded " + count + " classes in "
+ (SystemClock.uptimeMillis()-startTime) + "ms.");
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Error reading " + PRELOADED_CLASSES + ".", e);
} finally {
// Restore default.
runtime.setTargetHeapUtilization(defaultUtilization);
Debug.stopAllocCounting();
// Bring back root. We'll need it later.
setEffectiveUser(ROOT_UID);
setEffectiveGroup(ROOT_GID);
}
}
}预装载的类列表保存在framework.jar中的名为preloaded-classes的文本文件中，该文件是通过framework/base/tools/prload/WritePreloadedClassFile.java类生成的，产生preloaded-classes文件的方法是在Android源码根目录执行以下命令：
java -Xss512M -cp out/host/linux-x86/framework/preload.jar WritePreloadedClassFile frameworks/base/tools/preload/20100223.compiled
1517 classses were loaded by more than one app.
Added 147 more to speed up applications.
1664 total classes will be preloaded.
Writing object model...
Done!最后生成frameworks/base/preloaded-classes文本文件。preloadClasses函数就是读取preloaded-classes文件，该文件中的每一行代表一个具体的类，然后通过Class.forName()装载这些类，preloadClasses 执行时间比较长，也是导致android系统启动慢的原因。
加载共享资源
private static void preloadResources() {
final VMRuntime runtime = VMRuntime.getRuntime();
Debug.startAllocCounting();
try {
if(LESS_GC) {
System.gc();
runtime.runFinalizationSync();
}
mResources = Resources.getSystem();
mResources.startPreloading();
if (PRELOAD_RESOURCES) {
Log.i(TAG, "Preloading resources...");
long startTime = SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
//获取frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/arrays.xml中定义的数组preloaded_drawables
TypedArray ar = mResources.obtainTypedArray(

ar.recycle();
Log.i(TAG, "...preloaded " + N + " resources in "

} finally {
Debug.stopAllocCounting();
}
}

....
private static int preloadDrawables(VMRuntime runtime, TypedArray ar) {
int N = ar.length();
for (int i=0; i PRELOAD_GC_THRESHOLD) {
if (false) {
Log.v(TAG, " GC at " + Debug.getGlobalAllocSize());
}
if(LESS_GC) {
System.gc();
runtime.runFinalizationSync();
Debug.resetGlobalAllocSize();
}
}
int id = ar.getResourceId(i, 0);
if (false) {
Log.v(TAG, "Preloading resource #" + Integer.toHexString(id));
}
if (id != 0) {

接着调用preloadColorStateLists()来加载color资源。这些资源被保存到全局变量mResources中。

}Zygote进程通过Zygote.forkSystemServer函数来创建一个新的进程来启动SystemServer组件，返回值pid等0的地方就是新的进程要执行的路径，即新创建的进程会执行handleSystemServerProcess函数。

/*
* Call gc() before we block in select().
* It's work that has to be done anyway, and it's better
* to avoid making every child do it. It will also
* madvise() any free memory as a side-effect.
*
* Don't call it every time, because walking the entire
* heap is a lot of overhead to free a few hundred bytes.

try {

//当有客户端连接时，selectReadable返回

} catch (IOException ex) {

}
if (index < 0) {

done = peers.get(index).runOnce();
if (done) {
peers.remove(index);
fds.remove(index);
}
}
}
} 函数runSelectLoopMode()使Zygote进入非阻塞读取socket操作，函数selectReadable()用于监听服务端Socket文件描述是否有客户端的连接，该函数使用的是Linux多路I/O服务select系统调用：
do {
err = select (nfds, &fdset, NULL, NULL, NULL);
} while (err < 0 && errno == EINTR);当selectReadable返回-1时，表示内部错误；返回值为0时，表示没有可处理的连接；返回值大于0时，表示客户端连接的个数。
zygote总结：
1.创建AppRuntime对象，并调用它的start函数；
2.调用startVm创建Java虚拟机；
3.调用startReg函数来注册JNI函数；
4.调用ZygoteInit类的main函数，从此就进入了Java世界；
5.调用registerZygoteSocket 注册一个服务端socket；
6.调用preloadClasses 函数加载类资源；
7.调用preloadResources函数加载系统资源；
8.调用startSystemServer函数创建SystemServer进程；
9.调用runSelectLoopMode函数进入服务端socket监听；
Zygote孵化新进程
fork是Linux系统的系统调用，用于复制当前进程，产生一个新的进程。新进程被创建后，和父进程共享已经分配的内存空间，除了进程ID外，新进程拥有和父进程完全相同的进程信息，直到向内存写入数据时，操作系统才复制一份目标地址空间，并将要写的数据写入到新的地址空间中，这就是所谓的copy-on-write机制，这种机制最大限度地在多个进程中共享物理内存。fork函数的返回值大于0时，代表的是父进程，当等于0时，代表的是被复制的子进程，父子进程的区分就是通过fork的返回值来区分。当一个客户端进程请求Zygote孵化一个新的进程时，Zygote首先会得到该客户端的Socket连接，并将该连接封装为ZygoteConnection对象，并调用该对象的runOnce()函数来fork出一个新进程：done = peers.get(index).runOnce();

普通进程启动
对应am工具，对应的脚本为：
base=/system
export CLASSPATH=$base/framework/am.jar
exec app_process $base/bin com.android.commands.am.Am "$@"
Android将使用app_process启动的普通进程分工具进程和普通进程两种类型，通过传递命令行参数来设置，在启动虚拟机时，传递的参数不同：
runtime.start("com.android.internal.os.RuntimeInit",application ? "application" : "tool");public static final void main(String[] argv) {
if (argv.length == 2 && argv[1].equals("application")) {
if (DEBUG) Slog.d(TAG, "RuntimeInit: Starting application");
redirectLogStreams();
} else {
if (DEBUG) Slog.d(TAG, "RuntimeInit: Starting tool");
}
commonInit();
//通过JNI调用C++函数，更换Java入口
nativeFinishInit();
if (DEBUG) Slog.d(TAG, "Leaving RuntimeInit!");
}static void com_android_internal_os_RuntimeInit_nativeFinishInit(JNIEnv* env, jobject clazz)
{
gCurRuntime->onStarted();
}virtual void onStarted()
{
sp proc = ProcessState::self();
ALOGV("App process: starting thread pool.\n");
//启动Binder线程池
proc->startThreadPool();
AndroidRuntime* ar = AndroidRuntime::getRuntime();
//更换Java入口类，在app_process的main函数中，如果启动的不是zygote进程，就为虚拟机设置了启动类及启动参数
ar->callMain(mClassName, mClass, mArgC, mArgV);
IPCThreadState::self()->stopProcess();
} public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
(new Am()).run(args);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
showUsage();
System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
System.exit(1);
}
