之前分析过startActivity方法的源码，知道了startActivity的调用流程,大致的流程就是app通过Binder调用AMS的方法，然后AMS也通过Binder调用app的方法,app再回调我们的Activity的生命周期方法。AMS并不是直接保存我们的Activity的引用，而是通过每个Activity对应一个ActivityInfo信息在AMS保存。因为Activity是android 四大组件中最重要的也是最常用的，所以其调用流程比其他组件的流程复杂的多。
有兴趣的可以查看startActivity源码https://www.jianshu.com/p/ff0f45cf223e
了解了startActivity的调用流程后再看startService方法就感觉没那么困难了。
首先同样查看ContextImpl的startService方法
@Override
public ComponentName startService(Intent service) {
warnIfCallingFromSystemProcess();
return startServiceCommon(service, false, mUser);
}
内部调用了startServiceCommon方法，startServiceCommon调用了ActivityManager的startService.
private ComponentName startServiceCommon(Intent service, boolean requireForeground,
UserHandle user) {
try {
validateServiceIntent(service);
service.prepareToLeaveProcess(this);
ComponentName cn = ActivityManager.getService().startService(
mMainThread.getApplicationThread(), service, service.resolveTypeIfNeeded(
getContentResolver()), requireForeground,
getOpPackageName(), user.getIdentifier());
if (cn != null) {
if (cn.getPackageName().equals("!")) {
throw new SecurityException(
"Not allowed to start service " + service
+ " without permission " + cn.getClassName());
} else if (cn.getPackageName().equals("!!")) {
throw new SecurityException(
"Unable to start service " + service
+ ": " + cn.getClassName());
} else if (cn.getPackageName().equals("?")) {
throw new IllegalStateException(
"Not allowed to start service " + service + ": " + cn.getClassName());
}
}
return cn;
} catch (RemoteException e) {
throw e.rethrowFromSystemServer();
}
}
内部有个验证Intent的方法。在api21之后的开启服务都要显示声明，不然就直接抛异常
private void validateServiceIntent(Intent service) {
if (service.getComponent() == null && service.getPackage() == null) {
if (getApplicationInfo().targetSdkVersion >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
IllegalArgumentException ex = new IllegalArgumentException(
"Service Intent must be explicit: " + service);
throw ex;
} else {
Log.w(TAG, "Implicit intents with startService are not safe: " + service
+ " " + Debug.getCallers(2, 3));
}
}
}
我这里看的是26版本的源码，以前的源码是ActivityManagerNative.getDefault的方法。再看ActivityManagerNative类时，发现已经标了弃用的标签,其内部的getDefault方法也是调用getService方法
/**
* {@hide}
* @deprecated will be removed soon. See individual methods for alternatives.
*/
public abstract class ActivityManagerNative {
/**
* Retrieve the system's default/global activity manager.
*
* @deprecated use ActivityManager.getService instead.
*/
static public IActivityManager getDefault() {
return ActivityManager.getService();
}
这个时候到AMS里面的startService方法
@Override
public ComponentName startService(IApplicationThread caller, Intent service,
String resolvedType, boolean requireForeground, String callingPackage, int userId)
throws TransactionTooLargeException {
enforceNotIsolatedCaller("startService");
synchronized(this) {
final int callingPid = Binder.getCallingPid();
final int callingUid = Binder.getCallingUid();
final long origId = Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
ComponentName res;
try {
res = mServices.startServiceLocked(caller, service,
resolvedType, callingPid, callingUid,
requireForeground, callingPackage, userId);
} finally {
Binder.restoreCallingIdentity(origId);
}
return res;
}
}
里面调用了ActiviServices的startServiceLocked方法
ActiviServices.java
ComponentName startServiceLocked(IApplicationThread caller, Intent service, String resolvedType,
int callingPid, int callingUid, boolean fgRequired, String callingPackage, final int userId)
throws TransactionTooLargeException {
final boolean callerFg;
if (caller != null) {
final ProcessRecord callerApp = mAm.getRecordForAppLocked(caller);
callerFg = callerApp.setSchedGroup != ProcessList.SCHED_GROUP_BACKGROUND;
} else {
callerFg = true;
}
ServiceLookupResult res =
retrieveServiceLocked(service, resolvedType, callingPackage,
callingPid, callingUid, userId, true, callerFg, false);
if (res == null) {
return null;
}
if (res.record == null) {
return new ComponentName("!", res.permission != null
? res.permission : "private to package");
}
ServiceRecord r = res.record;
if (!mAm.mUserController.exists(r.userId)) {
Slog.w(TAG, "Trying to start service with non-existent user! " + r.userId);
return null;
}
// If this isn't a direct-to-foreground start, check our ability to kick off an
// arbitrary service
if (!r.startRequested && !fgRequired) {
// Before going further -- if this app is not allowed to start services in the
// background, then at this point we aren't going to let it period.
final int allowed = mAm.getAppStartModeLocked(r.appInfo.uid, r.packageName,
r.appInfo.targetSdkVersion, callingPid, false, false);
if (allowed != ActivityManager.APP_START_MODE_NORMAL) {
Slog.w(TAG, "Background start not allowed: service "
+ service + " to " + r.name.flattenToShortString()
+ " from pid=" + callingPid + " uid=" + callingUid
+ " pkg=" + callingPackage);
if (allowed == ActivityManager.APP_START_MODE_DELAYED) {
// In this case we are silently disabling the app, to disrupt as
// little as possible existing apps.
return null;
}
// This app knows it is in the new model where this operation is not
// allowed, so tell it what has happened.
UidRecord uidRec = mAm.mActiveUids.get(r.appInfo.uid);
return new ComponentName("?", "app is in background uid " + uidRec);
}
}
NeededUriGrants neededGrants = mAm.checkGrantUriPermissionFromIntentLocked(
callingUid, r.packageName, service, service.getFlags(), null, r.userId);
// If permissions need a review before any of the app components can run,
// we do not start the service and launch a review activity if the calling app
// is in the foreground passing it a pending intent to start the service when
// review is completed.
if (mAm.mPermissionReviewRequired) {
if (!requestStartTargetPermissionsReviewIfNeededLocked(r, callingPackage,
callingUid, service, callerFg, userId)) {
return null;
}
}
if (unscheduleServiceRestartLocked(r, callingUid, false)) {
if (DEBUG_SERVICE) Slog.v(TAG_SERVICE, "START SERVICE WHILE RESTART PENDING: " + r);
}
r.lastActivity = SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
r.startRequested = true;
r.delayedStop = false;
r.fgRequired = fgRequired;
r.pendingStarts.add(new ServiceRecord.StartItem(r, false, r.makeNextStartId(),
service, neededGrants, callingUid));
final ServiceMap smap = getServiceMapLocked(r.userId);
boolean addToStarting = false;
if (!callerFg && !fgRequired && r.app == null
&& mAm.mUserController.hasStartedUserState(r.userId)) {
ProcessRecord proc = mAm.getProcessRecordLocked(r.processName, r.appInfo.uid, false);
ComponentName cmp = startServiceInnerLocked(smap, service, r, callerFg, addToStarting);
return cmp;
}
内部调用了startServiceInnerLocked方法
ComponentName startServiceInnerLocked(ServiceMap smap, Intent service, ServiceRecord r,
boolean callerFg, boolean addToStarting) throws TransactionTooLargeException {
ServiceState stracker = r.getTracker();
if (stracker != null) {
stracker.setStarted(true, mAm.mProcessStats.getMemFactorLocked(), r.lastActivity);
}
r.callStart = false;
synchronized (r.stats.getBatteryStats()) {
r.stats.startRunningLocked();
}
String error = bringUpServiceLocked(r, service.getFlags(), callerFg, false, false);
if (error != null) {
return new ComponentName("!!", error);
}
if (r.startRequested && addToStarting) {
boolean first = smap.mStartingBackground.size() == 0;
smap.mStartingBackground.add(r);
r.startingBgTimeout = SystemClock.uptimeMillis() + mAm.mConstants.BG_START_TIMEOUT;
if (DEBUG_DELAYED_SERVICE) {
RuntimeException here = new RuntimeException("here");
here.fillInStackTrace();
Slog.v(TAG_SERVICE, "Starting background (first=" + first + "): " + r, here);
} else if (DEBUG_DELAYED_STARTS) {
Slog.v(TAG_SERVICE, "Starting background (first=" + first + "): " + r);
}
if (first) {
smap.rescheduleDelayedStartsLocked();
}
} else if (callerFg || r.fgRequired) {
smap.ensureNotStartingBackgroundLocked(r);
}
return r.name;
}
调用了bringUpServieLocked方法,这个方法里面有判断service是否有start过，如果start了，则会跳过onCreate方法的回调
private String bringUpServiceLocked(ServiceRecord r, int intentFlags, boolean execInFg,
boolean whileRestarting, boolean permissionsReviewRequired)
throws TransactionTooLargeException {
//Slog.i(TAG, "Bring up service:");

//在后面的realStartServiceLocked方法里面设置的
if (r.app != null && r.app.thread != null) {
sendServiceArgsLocked(r, execInFg, false);
return null;
}
// We are now bringing the service up, so no longer in the
// restarting state.
if (mRestartingServices.remove(r)) {
clearRestartingIfNeededLocked(r);
}
// Make sure this service is no longer considered delayed, we are starting it now.
if (r.delayed) {
if (DEBUG_DELAYED_STARTS) Slog.v(TAG_SERVICE, "REM FR DELAY LIST (bring up): " + r);
getServiceMapLocked(r.userId).mDelayedStartList.remove(r);
r.delayed = false;
}

// we don't want to allow it to run.
if (!mAm.mUserController.hasStartedUserState(r.userId)) {
String msg = "Unable to launch app "
+ r.appInfo.packageName + "/"

+ r.intent.getIntent() + ": user " + r.userId + " is stopped";
Slog.w(TAG, msg);
bringDownServiceLocked(r);
return msg;
}
// Service is now being launched, its package can't be stopped.
try {
AppGlobals.getPackageManager().setPackageStoppedState(
r.packageName, false, r.userId);
} catch (RemoteException e) {
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
Slog.w(TAG, "Failed trying to unstop package "
+ r.packageName + ": " + e);
}
final boolean isolated = (r.serviceInfo.flags&ServiceInfo.FLAG_ISOLATED_PROCESS) != 0;
final String procName = r.processName;
String hostingType = "service";
ProcessRecord app;
if (!isolated) {
app = mAm.getProcessRecordLocked(procName, r.appInfo.uid, false);
if (DEBUG_MU) Slog.v(TAG_MU, "bringUpServiceLocked: appInfo.uid=" + r.appInfo.uid
+ " app=" + app);
if (app != null && app.thread != null) {
try {
app.addPackage(r.appInfo.packageName, r.appInfo.versionCode, mAm.mProcessStats);
//关键代码，调用了realStartServiceLocked方法
realStartServiceLocked(r, app, execInFg);
return null;
} catch (TransactionTooLargeException e) {
throw e;
} catch (RemoteException e) {
Slog.w(TAG, "Exception when starting service " + r.shortName, e);
}
}
} else {
app = r.isolatedProc;
if (WebViewZygote.isMultiprocessEnabled()
&& r.serviceInfo.packageName.equals(WebViewZygote.getPackageName())) {
hostingType = "webview_service";
}
}
if (app == null && !permissionsReviewRequired) {
if ((app=mAm.startProcessLocked(procName, r.appInfo, true, intentFlags,
hostingType, r.name, false, isolated, false)) == null) {
String msg = "Unable to launch app "

Slog.w(TAG, msg);
bringDownServiceLocked(r);

}
return null;
}
最终调用了realStartServiceLocked方法
private final void realStartServiceLocked(ServiceRecord r,
ProcessRecord app, boolean execInFg) throws RemoteException {
if (app.thread == null) {
throw new RemoteException();
}
//设置 app属性
r.app = app;
r.restartTime = r.lastActivity = SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
final boolean newService = app.services.add(r);
bumpServiceExecutingLocked(r, execInFg, "create");
mAm.updateLruProcessLocked(app, false, null);
updateServiceForegroundLocked(r.app, /* oomAdj= */ false);
mAm.updateOomAdjLocked();
boolean created = false;
try {
mAm.notifyPackageUse(r.serviceInfo.packageName,
PackageManager.NOTIFY_PACKAGE_USE_SERVICE);
app.forceProcessStateUpTo(ActivityManager.PROCESS_STATE_SERVICE);
//关键代码，这里通过Binder机制调用了ActivityThread的方法了
app.thread.scheduleCreateService(r, r.serviceInfo,
mAm.compatibilityInfoForPackageLocked(r.serviceInfo.applicationInfo),
app.repProcState);
r.postNotification();
created = true;
} catch (DeadObjectException e) {
Slog.w(TAG, "Application dead when creating service " + r);
mAm.appDiedLocked(app);
throw e;
} finally {
if (!created) {
// Keep the executeNesting count accurate.
final boolean inDestroying = mDestroyingServices.contains(r);

// Cleanup.
if (newService) {

}
}

}
requestServiceBindingsLocked(r, execInFg);
updateServiceClientActivitiesLocked(app, null, true);
// If the service is in the started state, and there are no

if (r.startRequested && r.callStart && r.pendingStarts.size() == 0) {
r.pendingStarts.add(new ServiceRecord.StartItem(r, false, r.makeNextStartId(),

}
//关键代码，这里后面会调用service的onStart方法
sendServiceArgsLocked(r, execInFg, true);
if (r.delayed) {
if (DEBUG_DELAYED_STARTS) Slog.v(TAG_SERVICE, "REM FR DELAY LIST (new proc): " + r);
getServiceMapLocked(r.userId).mDelayedStartList.remove(r);

}
}
ActivityThread.java
public final void scheduleCreateService(IBinder token,
ServiceInfo info, CompatibilityInfo compatInfo, int processState) {
updateProcessState(processState, false);
CreateServiceData s = new CreateServiceData();
s.token = token;
s.info = info;
s.compatInfo = compatInfo;
sendMessage(H.CREATE_SERVICE, s);
}
查看处理CREATE_SETVICE的消息的地方
case CREATE_SERVICE:
Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, ("serviceCreate: " + String.valueOf(msg.obj)));
handleCreateService((CreateServiceData)msg.obj);
Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
break;
handleCreateService方法
在这里终于回调我们的Service的onCreate方法。先创建了一个Service实例，调用其attach方法。后调用了onCreate方法，然后放入了mServices集合中
private void handleCreateService(CreateServiceData data) {
// If we are getting ready to gc after going to the background, well
// we are back active so skip it.
unscheduleGcIdler();
LoadedApk packageInfo = getPackageInfoNoCheck(
data.info.applicationInfo, data.compatInfo);

} catch (Exception e) {

}
}

} catch (RemoteException e) {
throw e.rethrowFromSystemServer();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(service, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to create service " + data.info.name
+ ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}
}
onCreate方法回调流程查看完毕，现在往后面看sendServiceArgsLocked方法
private final void realStartServiceLocked(ServiceRecord r,
ProcessRecord app, boolean execInFg) throws RemoteException {
boolean created = false;
try {
mAm.notifyPackageUse(r.serviceInfo.packageName,
PackageManager.NOTIFY_PACKAGE_USE_SERVICE);
app.forceProcessStateUpTo(ActivityManager.PROCESS_STATE_SERVICE);
//关键代码，这里通过Binder机制调用了ActivityThread的方法了
app.thread.scheduleCreateService(r, r.serviceInfo,
//省略部分代码....
//关键代码，这里后面会调用service的onStart方法
sendServiceArgsLocked(r, execInFg, true);
}
sendServiceArgsLocked方法
private final void sendServiceArgsLocked(ServiceRecord r, boolean execInFg,
boolean oomAdjusted) throws TransactionTooLargeException {
final int N = r.pendingStarts.size();
if (N == 0) {
return;
}
ArrayList args = new ArrayList<>();
while (r.pendingStarts.size() > 0) {
ServiceRecord.StartItem si = r.pendingStarts.remove(0);
if (DEBUG_SERVICE) {
Slog.v(TAG_SERVICE, "Sending arguments to: "
+ r + " " + r.intent + " args=" + si.intent);
}
if (si.intent == null && N > 1) {
// If somehow we got a dummy null intent in the middle,
// then skip it. DO NOT skip a null intent when it is
// the only one in the list -- this is to support the
// onStartCommand(null) case.
continue;
}
si.deliveredTime = SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
r.deliveredStarts.add(si);
si.deliveryCount++;
if (si.neededGrants != null) {
mAm.grantUriPermissionUncheckedFromIntentLocked(si.neededGrants,
si.getUriPermissionsLocked());
}
mAm.grantEphemeralAccessLocked(r.userId, si.intent,
r.appInfo.uid, UserHandle.getAppId(si.callingId));
bumpServiceExecutingLocked(r, execInFg, "start");
if (!oomAdjusted) {
oomAdjusted = true;
mAm.updateOomAdjLocked(r.app, true);
}
if (r.fgRequired && !r.fgWaiting) {
if (!r.isForeground) {
if (DEBUG_BACKGROUND_CHECK) {
Slog.i(TAG, "Launched service must call startForeground() within timeout: " + r);
}
scheduleServiceForegroundTransitionTimeoutLocked(r);
} else {
if (DEBUG_BACKGROUND_CHECK) {

}
r.fgRequired = false;
}
}
int flags = 0;
if (si.deliveryCount > 1) {
flags |= Service.START_FLAG_RETRY;
}
if (si.doneExecutingCount > 0) {
flags |= Service.START_FLAG_REDELIVERY;
}
args.add(new ServiceStartArgs(si.taskRemoved, si.id, flags, si.intent));
}
ParceledListSlice slice = new ParceledListSlice<>(args);
slice.setInlineCountLimit(4);
Exception caughtException = null;
try {
//关键代码，又调用了ActivityThread的方法
r.app.thread.scheduleServiceArgs(r, slice);
} catch (TransactionTooLargeException e) {

// Keep nesting count correct
final boolean inDestroying = mDestroyingServices.contains(r);
for (int i = 0; i < args.size(); i++) {
serviceDoneExecutingLocked(r, inDestroying, inDestroying);
}
if (caughtException instanceof TransactionTooLargeException) {
throw (TransactionTooLargeException)caughtException;
}
}
}
从AMS调用了ActivityThread的scheduleSerivceArgs方法，发送了一个SERVICE_ARGS消息
public final void scheduleServiceArgs(IBinder token, ParceledListSlice args) {
List list = args.getList();
for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
ServiceStartArgs ssa = list.get(i);
ServiceArgsData s = new ServiceArgsData();
s.token = token;
s.taskRemoved = ssa.taskRemoved;
s.startId = ssa.startId;
s.flags = ssa.flags;
s.args = ssa.args;
sendMessage(H.SERVICE_ARGS, s);
}
}
处理SERVICE_ARGS方法
case SERVICE_ARGS:
Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, ("serviceStart: " + String.valueOf(msg.obj)));
handleServiceArgs((ServiceArgsData)msg.obj);
Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
break;
调用handleServiceArgs方法。里面回调了我们的Service的onStartCommand方法
private void handleServiceArgs(ServiceArgsData data) {
Service s = mServices.get(data.token);
if (s != null) {
try {
if (data.args != null) {
data.args.setExtrasClassLoader(s.getClassLoader());
data.args.prepareToEnterProcess();
}
int res;
if (!data.taskRemoved) {
res = s.onStartCommand(data.args, data.flags, data.startId);
} else {
s.onTaskRemoved(data.args);
res = Service.START_TASK_REMOVED_COMPLETE;
}
QueuedWork.waitToFinish();
try {
ActivityManager.getService().serviceDoneExecuting(
data.token, SERVICE_DONE_EXECUTING_START, data.startId, res);
} catch (RemoteException e) {
throw e.rethrowFromSystemServer();
}
ensureJitEnabled();
} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(s, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to start service " + s
+ " with " + data.args + ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}
}
}
可以看到和AMS交互的调用过程和startActivity方法是一样的，只不过Service不需要显示给用户看，因此流程比Activity简单的多。
