JVM源码分析-Java运行
最近在看Java并发编程实践和Inside JVM两本书，发现如果不真正的了解底层运作，那么永远是雾里看花。因此从http://openjdk.java.net/groups/hotspot/上下载了源代码，准备研究一番。要想完全研究懂我觉得得对计算机体系结构，C，C++编程，Linux内核都有比较深入的理解。由于并非从事JVM开发工作，因此不会研究的那么深入。入手就从“java 类名”这个Hello World的命令开始吧，简要的看一下JVM是如何运行起来执行main函数的。
这个实现使用的是C代码（位于share/tools/launcher中的java.c），关注一下是如何执行这个命令的。
过程主要就是按照参数加载虚拟机，然后找到指定类，执行其main方法。
整个C程序是从main函数开始：
1
int
2 main( int argc, char ** argv)
3 {
4 char *jarfile = 0;
5 char *classname = 0;
6 char *s = 0;
7 char *main_class = NULL;
8 int ret;
设置运行时环境：
2 main( int argc, char ** argv)
3 {
4 char *jarfile = 0;
5 char *classname = 0;
6 char *s = 0;
7 char *main_class = NULL;
8 int ret;
CreateExecutionEnvironment(&argc, &argv,
jrepath, sizeof(jrepath),
jvmpath, sizeof(jvmpath),
original_argv);
加载JVM：
jrepath, sizeof(jrepath),
jvmpath, sizeof(jvmpath),
original_argv);
1
if (!LoadJavaVM(jvmpath, &ifn)) {
2 exit(6);
3 }
设置Classpath：
2 exit(6);
3 }
SetClassPath
设置各种参数
1
/*
set the -Dsun.java.command pseudo property
*/
2 SetJavaCommandLineProp(classname, jarfile, argc, argv);
3
4 /* Set the -Dsun.java.launcher pseudo property */
5 SetJavaLauncherProp();
6
7 /* set the -Dsun.java.launcher.* platform properties */
8 SetJavaLauncherPlatformProps();
2 SetJavaCommandLineProp(classname, jarfile, argc, argv);
3
4 /* Set the -Dsun.java.launcher pseudo property */
5 SetJavaLauncherProp();
6
7 /* set the -Dsun.java.launcher.* platform properties */
8 SetJavaLauncherPlatformProps();
设置线程栈大小：
1
if (threadStackSize == 0) {
2 struct JDK1_1InitArgs args1_1;
3 memset(( void*)&args1_1, 0, sizeof(args1_1));
4 args1_1.version = JNI_VERSION_1_1;
5 ifn.GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs(&args1_1); /* ignore return value */
6 if (args1_1.javaStackSize > 0) {
7 threadStackSize = args1_1.javaStackSize;
8 }
9 }
2 struct JDK1_1InitArgs args1_1;
3 memset(( void*)&args1_1, 0, sizeof(args1_1));
4 args1_1.version = JNI_VERSION_1_1;
5 ifn.GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs(&args1_1); /* ignore return value */
6 if (args1_1.javaStackSize > 0) {
7 threadStackSize = args1_1.javaStackSize;
8 }
9 }
创建一个新的线程创建JVM并调用main方法。
1 {
/*
Create a new thread to create JVM and invoke main method
*/
2 struct JavaMainArgs args;
3
4 args.argc = argc;
5 args.argv = argv;
6 args.jarfile = jarfile;
7 args.classname = classname;
8 args.ifn = ifn;
9
10 return ContinueInNewThread(JavaMain, threadStackSize, ( void*)&args);
11 }
最后在这个线程里调用了JavaMain，接下来是JavaMain的代码：
2 struct JavaMainArgs args;
3
4 args.argc = argc;
5 args.argv = argv;
6 args.jarfile = jarfile;
7 args.classname = classname;
8 args.ifn = ifn;
9
10 return ContinueInNewThread(JavaMain, threadStackSize, ( void*)&args);
11 }
1
int JNICALL
2 JavaMain( void * _args)
3 {
4 struct JavaMainArgs *args = ( struct JavaMainArgs *)_args;
5 int argc = args->argc;
6 char **argv = args->argv;
7 char *jarfile = args->jarfile;
8 char *classname = args->classname;
下面就是调用Java里的main方法了，当然首先是加载类：
2 JavaMain( void * _args)
3 {
4 struct JavaMainArgs *args = ( struct JavaMainArgs *)_args;
5 int argc = args->argc;
6 char **argv = args->argv;
7 char *jarfile = args->jarfile;
8 char *classname = args->classname;
1
if (jarfile != 0) {
2 mainClassName = GetMainClassName(env, jarfile);
根据class的名字加载class：
2 mainClassName = GetMainClassName(env, jarfile);
1 classname = (
char *)(*env)->GetStringUTFChars(env, mainClassName, 0);
2 if (classname == NULL) {
3 ReportExceptionDescription(env);
4 goto leave;
5 }
6 mainClass = LoadClass(env, classname);
还有其他情况：
2 if (classname == NULL) {
3 ReportExceptionDescription(env);
4 goto leave;
5 }
6 mainClass = LoadClass(env, classname);
1 mainClassName = NewPlatformString(env, classname);
2 if (mainClassName == NULL) {
3 const char * format = "Failed to load Main Class: %s";
4 message = ( char *)JLI_MemAlloc((strlen(format) + strlen(classname)) *
5 sizeof( char) );
6 sprintf(message, format, classname);
7 messageDest = JNI_TRUE;
8 goto leave;
9 }
10 classname = ( char *)(*env)->GetStringUTFChars(env, mainClassName, 0);
11 if (classname == NULL) {
12 ReportExceptionDescription(env);
13 goto leave;
14 }
15 mainClass = LoadClass(env, classname);
接下来就是调用java中的main方法了，这是一个静态方法：
2 if (mainClassName == NULL) {
3 const char * format = "Failed to load Main Class: %s";
4 message = ( char *)JLI_MemAlloc((strlen(format) + strlen(classname)) *
5 sizeof( char) );
6 sprintf(message, format, classname);
7 messageDest = JNI_TRUE;
8 goto leave;
9 }
10 classname = ( char *)(*env)->GetStringUTFChars(env, mainClassName, 0);
11 if (classname == NULL) {
12 ReportExceptionDescription(env);
13 goto leave;
14 }
15 mainClass = LoadClass(env, classname);
1
/*
Get the application's main method
*/
2 mainID = (*env)->GetStaticMethodID(env, mainClass, "main",
3 "([Ljava/lang/String;)V");
2 mainID = (*env)->GetStaticMethodID(env, mainClass, "main",
3 "([Ljava/lang/String;)V");
确认main方法是public的
1 {
/*
Make sure the main method is public
*/
2 jint mods;
3 jmethodID mid;
4 jobject obj = (*env)->ToReflectedMethod(env, mainClass,
5 mainID, JNI_TRUE);
6
7 if( obj == NULL) { /* exception occurred */
8 ReportExceptionDescription(env);
9 goto leave;
10 }
11
12 mid =
13 (*env)->GetMethodID(env,
14 (*env)->GetObjectClass(env, obj),
15 "getModifiers", "()I");
2 jint mods;
3 jmethodID mid;
4 jobject obj = (*env)->ToReflectedMethod(env, mainClass,
5 mainID, JNI_TRUE);
6
7 if( obj == NULL) { /* exception occurred */
8 ReportExceptionDescription(env);
9 goto leave;
10 }
11
12 mid =
13 (*env)->GetMethodID(env,
14 (*env)->GetObjectClass(env, obj),
15 "getModifiers", "()I");
1 mods = (*env)->CallIntMethod(env, obj, mid);
2 if ((mods & 1) == 0) { /* if (!Modifier.isPublic(mods))
*/
3 message = "Main method not public.";
4 messageDest = JNI_TRUE;
5 goto leave;
6 }
2 if ((mods & 1) == 0) { /* if (!Modifier.isPublic(mods))
*/
3 message = "Main method not public.";
4 messageDest = JNI_TRUE;
5 goto leave;
6 }
构建参数：
1
/*
Build argument array
*/
2 mainArgs = NewPlatformStringArray(env, argv, argc);
3 if (mainArgs == NULL) {
4 ReportExceptionDescription(env);
5 goto leave;
6 }
调用main方法：
2 mainArgs = NewPlatformStringArray(env, argv, argc);
3 if (mainArgs == NULL) {
4 ReportExceptionDescription(env);
5 goto leave;
6 }
1
/*
Invoke main method.
*/
2 (*env)->CallStaticVoidMethod(env, mainClass, mainID, mainArgs);
脱离线程：
2 (*env)->CallStaticVoidMethod(env, mainClass, mainID, mainArgs);
1
/*
2 * Detach the main thread so that it appears to have ended when
3 * the application's main method exits. This will invoke the
4 * uncaught exception handler machinery if main threw an
5 * exception. An uncaught exception handler cannot change the
6 * launcher's return code except by calling System.exit.
7 */
8 if ((*vm)->DetachCurrentThread(vm) != 0) {
9 message = "Could not detach main thread.";
10 messageDest = JNI_TRUE;
11 ret = 1;
12 goto leave;
13 }
2 * Detach the main thread so that it appears to have ended when
3 * the application's main method exits. This will invoke the
4 * uncaught exception handler machinery if main threw an

7 */
8 if ((*vm)->DetachCurrentThread(vm) != 0) {
9 message = "Could not detach main thread.";
10 messageDest = JNI_TRUE;
11 ret = 1;
12 goto leave;
13 }
销毁虚拟机，得等所有线程都结束，因为虚拟机是一个守护线程：
1 leave:
2 /*
3 * Wait for all non-daemon threads to end, then destroy the VM.
4 * This will actually create a trivial new Java waiter thread
5 * named "DestroyJavaVM", but this will be seen as a different
6 * thread from the one that executed main, even though they are
7 * the same C thread. This allows mainThread.join() and
8 * mainThread.isAlive() to work as expected.
9 */
10 (*vm)->DestroyJavaVM(vm);
2 /*
3 * Wait for all non-daemon threads to end, then destroy the VM.
4 * This will actually create a trivial new Java waiter thread
5 * named "DestroyJavaVM", but this will be seen as a different
6 * thread from the one that executed main, even though they are
7 * the same C thread. This allows mainThread.join() and
8 * mainThread.isAlive() to work as expected.
9 */
10 (*vm)->DestroyJavaVM(vm);
回过头来比较重要的几个方法：
1 LoadClass
2 GetStaticMethodID
3 GetMethodID
4 CallIntMethod
5 CallStaticVoidMethod
6 ContinueInNewThread
7 LoadJavaVM
这些方法基本上就是我们平常写代码比较关注的了。
LoadClass
1
/*
2 * Loads a class, convert the '.' to '/'.
3 */
4 static jclass
5 LoadClass(JNIEnv *env, char *name)
6 {
7 char *buf = JLI_MemAlloc(strlen(name) + 1);
8 char *s = buf, *t = name, c;
9 jclass cls;
10 jlong start, end;
11
12 if (_launcher_debug)
13 start = CounterGet();
14
15 do {
16 c = *t++;
17 *s++ = (c == '.') ? '/' : c;
18 } while (c != '\0');
19 cls = (*env)->FindClass(env, buf);
20 JLI_MemFree(buf);
21
22 if (_launcher_debug) {
23 end = CounterGet();
24 printf("%ld micro seconds to load main class\n",
25 ( long)(jint)Counter2Micros(end-start));
26 printf("----_JAVA_LAUNCHER_DEBUG----\n");
27 }
28
29 return cls;
30 }
2 * Loads a class, convert the '.' to '/'.
3 */
4 static jclass
5 LoadClass(JNIEnv *env, char *name)
6 {
7 char *buf = JLI_MemAlloc(strlen(name) + 1);
8 char *s = buf, *t = name, c;
9 jclass cls;
10 jlong start, end;
11
12 if (_launcher_debug)
13 start = CounterGet();
14
15 do {
16 c = *t++;
17 *s++ = (c == '.') ? '/' : c;
18 } while (c != '\0');
19 cls = (*env)->FindClass(env, buf);
20 JLI_MemFree(buf);
21
22 if (_launcher_debug) {
23 end = CounterGet();
24 printf("%ld micro seconds to load main class\n",
25 ( long)(jint)Counter2Micros(end-start));
26 printf("----_JAVA_LAUNCHER_DEBUG----\n");
27 }
28
29 return cls;
30 }
其中有个主要方法是调用JNIEnv的FindClass方法去找class：
在下载的源代码中jni.h位于share/vm/prims，在网上找到如下代码：
http://home.pacifier.com/~mmead/jni/cs510ajp/jni.h
1 /*
2

3 *
4 * env->FindClass("java/lang/String")

12
13 struct JNIEnv_ {
14 const struct JNINativeInterface_ *functions;
15 void *reserved0;
16 void *reserved1[6];
17 #ifdef __cplusplus
18
19 jint GetVersion() {
20 return functions->GetVersion( this);
21 }
22 jclass DefineClass( const char *name, jobject loader, const jbyte *buf,
23 jsize len) {

JNI是依赖于Java Runtime Interface的：
/*
* We used part of Netscape's Java Runtime Interface (JRI) as the starting
* point of our design and implementation.
*/
具体可以看 这里和 这里。
* We used part of Netscape's Java Runtime Interface (JRI) as the starting
* point of our design and implementation.
*/
注意 JNINativeInterface_ 这个结构体，实际上之前说的那些方法，最终都是调用了它：
jclass (JNICALL
*
FindClass)
(JNIEnv
*
env,
const
char
*
name);
jmethodID (JNICALL *GetStaticMethodID) (JNIEnv *env, jclass clazz,
const
char *name,
const
char *sig);
void (JNICALL *CallStaticVoidMethod)
(JNIEnv *env, jclass cls, jmethodID methodID,);
这种写法在C++里叫inline function，调用方法就是像上面写的那样：void (JNICALL *CallStaticVoidMethod)
(JNIEnv *env, jclass cls, jmethodID methodID,
);

/*
2 * We use inlined functions for C++ so that programmers can write:

9 *

share/vm/prims中包含了jni的大量实现代码，对于上面的概述进行了细化，如果想知道怎么加载例如FindClass这样的方法，以及它们内部到底干了什么，就得看这部分了。

LoadJavaVM
LoadJavaVM和DestroyJavaVM等跟VM有关的方法，都与share/vm/prims中的jvm.h,jvm.cpp有关。
这个方法解释如下：
1
/*

3 * These functions are complementary to the standard JNI support.
4 * There are three parts to this file:

6 * First, this file contains the VM-related functions needed by native
7 * libraries in the standard Java API. For example, the java.lang.Object
8 * class needs VM-level functions that wait for and notify monitors.
9 *
10 * Second, this file contains the functions and constant definitions
11 * needed by the byte code verifier and class file format checker.
12 * These functions allow the verifier and format checker to be written
13 * in a VM-independent way.
14 *
15 * Third, this file contains various I/O and nerwork operations needed

18
19 /*

这里面包括了VM这个层次上的抽象，大到创建Java线程，加载类，解析字节码，小到JVM原生支持的Java方法。
下面是从bootstrap class loader的代码，Java的根class loader是c++实现的。

有个结论是：整个Hotspot JVM是以JRI为起点进行设计的基于JNI的框架，可以算是一个插件架构，通过JNI的机制扩展JVM自身。
另外在share/vm/prims中还能看到大量的jvmti开头的文件，那么jvmti是什么东东呢？那么看 这里：
The JVM TM Tool Interface (JVM TI) is a new native programming interface for use by tools. It provides both a way to inspect the state and to control the execution of applications running in the Java virtual machine (JVM). JVM TI supports the full breadth of tools that need access to JVM state, including but not limited to: profiling, debugging, monitoring, thread analysis, and coverage analysis tools.
Note: JVM TI replaces the Java Virtual Machine Profiler Interface (JVMPI) and the Java Virtual Machine Debug Interface (JVMDI). JVMPI and JVMDI will be removed in the next major release of J2SETM.
先写到这吧，下面一篇应该会从整个的JVM架构来讲一下，然后再去对照Inside JVM和JVM规范去理解重点代码，看其是如何实现的。我关注的重点是OO，IO，多线程以及GC，JIT这几个方面的实现。另外一部分重点是更基础的，JVM真正在执行层面上如何运行Java字节码的，那些堆，栈，栈帧，PC如何创建，如何执行指令。
给自己做一个规划吧，列个提纲：
1 JVM总体架构
2 JVM内存模型以及运行时
3 多线程
4 GC
5 OO
6 IO
7 JIT
