其实从图中可以清晰的发现,在Android的应用层中Client和Server所谓的IPC,其实真正的工作均由底层的Binder驱动来完成。也就是说binder驱动可以完成进程间通信,这也是Android特点之一。Service Manager做为一个守护进程,主要来处理客户端的服务请求,管理所有的服务项。
二.binder底层驱动核心内容。
说到底,binder底层的驱动架构和通用的linux驱动没有区别,核心的内容包括binder_init,binder_open,binder_mmap,binder_ioctl.
binder驱动在Android系统中以miscdevice完成设备的注册,作为抽象设备,他没有直接操作硬件,只是完成了内存的拷贝处理。如果要深入理解这块机制,请参考老罗的android之旅。在这里对binder_ioctl做一定的分析:
2.1 驱动核心的操作数据结构:
binder_proc和binder_thread:
每open一个binder驱动(系统允许多个进程打开binder驱动),都会有一个专门的binder_proc管理当前进程的信息,包括进程的ID,当前进程由mmap所映射出的buffer信息,以及当前进程所允许的最大线程量。同时这个binder_proc会加入到系统的全局链表binder_procs中去,方便在不同进程之间可以查找信息。
binder_thread:在当前进程下存在多线程,因此binder驱动使用binder_thread来管理对应的线程信息,主要包括线程所属的binder_proc、当前状态looper以及一个transaction_stack(我的理解是负责着实际进程间通信交互的源头和目的地)。
binder_write_read :
[plain]
struct binder_write_read {
signed long write_size; /* bytes to write */
signed long write_consumed; /* bytes consumed by driver */
unsigned long write_buffer;
signed long read_size; /* bytes to read */
signed long read_consumed; /* bytes consumed by driver */
unsigned long read_buffer;
};
在binder驱动中,以该结构体作为信息封装的中转(可以理解为内核和用户的连接)。在驱动中为根据write_size和read_size的大小来进行处理(见ioctl的解析部分),在write_buffer和read_buffer都代表着用户空间的buffer地址。在write_buffer中,由一个cmd和binder_transaction_data组成,cmd主要告知驱动当前所要处理的内容。
binder_transaction_data:
[plain]
struct binder_transaction_data {
/* The first two are only used for bcTRANSACTION and brTRANSACTION,
* identifying the target and contents of the transaction.
*/
union {
size_t handle; /* target descriptor of command transaction */
void *ptr; /* target descriptor of return transaction */
} target;
void *cookie; /* target object cookie */
unsigned int code; /* transaction command */
/* General information about the transaction. */
unsigned int flags;
pid_t sender_pid;
uid_t sender_euid;
size_t data_size; /* number of bytes of data */
size_t offsets_size; /* number of bytes of offsets */
/* If this transaction is inline, the data immediately
* follows here; otherwise, it ends with a pointer to
* the data buffer.
*/
union {
struct {
/* transaction data */
const void *buffer;
/* offsets from buffer to flat_binder_object structs */
const void *offsets;
} ptr;
uint8_t buf[8];
} data;
};
在这里,buffer和offsets分别代表传输内容的数据量以及Binder实体的偏移量(会遇到多个Binder实体)。
binder_transaction:该结构体主要C/S即请求进程和服务进程的相关信息,方便进程间通信,以及信息的调用
binder_work:理解为binder驱动中,进程所要处理的工作项。

2.2 binder驱动之ioctl解析:
和常用的ioctl相类似,在这里我们关注BINDER_WRITE_READ命令项的内容。
binder_thread_write和binder_thread_read会根据用户传入的write_size和read_size的有无来进行处理。在这里以Mediaplayservice和ServiceManager的通信来分析,调用的cmd如下:
MS首先传入cmd=BC_TRANSACTION:
调用binder_transaction:
[plain]
static void binder_transaction(struct binder_proc *proc,
struct binder_thread *thread,
struct binder_transaction_data *tr, int reply)

if (target_wait)
wake_up_interruptible(target_wait);//唤醒Service Manager进程
return;
...}
分析这个函数,可以知道和SM通信时,获取target_proc为SM进程的相关信息。然后是维护当前请求的binder实体,以免被crash。以binder_transaction t为C/S之间做为传递的信息,做初始化记录请求进程和服务进程到t中。最后做如下操作:
t->work.type = BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION;
list_add_tail(&t->work.entry, target_list);//binder_work添加到SM进程Proc链表中
tcomplete->type = BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE;//type设置为BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE
list_add_tail(&tcomplete->entry, &thread->todo);//待完成的工作加入的本线程的todo链表中
if (target_wait)
wake_up_interruptible(target_wait);//唤醒Service Manager进程
可以看到,将这个t加入到了服务进程SM的链表中,将待完成的tcomplete加入到当前MS的thread中,最后唤醒SM,做相关的处理。
MS继续执行binder_thread_read如下:
[plain]
static int binder_thread_read(struct binder_proc *proc,
struct binder_thread *thread,
void __user *buffer, int size,
signed long *consumed, int non_block)
{
void __user *ptr = buffer + *consumed;
void __user *end = buffer + size;
int ret = 0;
int wait_for_proc_work;
if (*consumed == 0) {

return -EFAULT;
ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
}
retry:

list_empty(&thread->todo);// false
if (thread->return_error != BR_OK && ptr < end) {

return -EFAULT;
ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
if (ptr == end)
goto done;
thread->return_error2 = BR_OK;
}
if (put_user(thread->return_error, (uint32_t __user *)ptr))
return -EFAULT;
ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
thread->return_error = BR_OK;
goto done;
}
thread->looper |= BINDER_LOOPER_STATE_WAITING;
if (wait_for_proc_work)
proc->ready_threads++;
mutex_unlock(&binder_lock);
if (wait_for_proc_work) {

BINDER_LOOPER_STATE_ENTERED))) {

"for process work before calling BC_REGISTER_"
"LOOPER or BC_ENTER_LOOPER (state %x)\n",

wait_event_interruptible(binder_user_error_wait,
binder_stop_on_user_error < 2);
}
binder_set_nice(proc->default_priority);
if (non_block) {
if (!binder_has_proc_work(proc, thread))
ret = -EAGAIN;
} else
ret = wait_event_interruptible_exclusive(proc->wait, binder_has_proc_work(proc, thread));//binder_has_proc_work为false唤醒
} else {

while (1) {

struct binder_transaction_data tr;
struct binder_work *w;
struct binder_transaction *t = NULL;
if (!list_empty(&thread->todo))
w = list_first_entry(&thread->todo, struct binder_work, entry);
else if (!list_empty(&proc->todo) && wait_for_proc_work)//在SM被唤醒时proc->todo为1且wait_for_proc_work等待进程有事情做
w = list_first_entry(&proc->todo, struct binder_work, entry);//获取binder_work
else {
if (ptr - buffer == 4 && !(thread->looper & BINDER_LOOPER_STATE_NEED_RETURN)) /* no data added */
goto retry;
break;
}
if (end - ptr < sizeof(tr) + 4)
break;
switch (w->type) {
case BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION: {//SM唤醒时带调用
t = container_of(w, struct binder_transaction, work);//通过binder_transaction的指针变量work为w,获取binder_transaction
} break;
case BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE: {
cmd = BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE;
if (put_user(cmd, (uint32_t __user *)ptr)) //BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE命令写回
return -EFAULT;
ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
binder_stat_br(proc, thread, cmd);
binder_debug(BINDER_DEBUG_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE,
"binder: %d:%d BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE\n",
proc->pid, thread->pid);
list_del(&w->entry);//从thread->todo删除链表
kfree(w);
binder_stats_deleted(BINDER_STAT_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE);
} break;
写会BR_NOOP和BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE给用户空间,相当于从内核读取了数据,同时也做list_del(&w->entry)的处理。
MS继续与binder交互,进入ret = wait_event_interruptible(thread->wait, binder_has_thread_work(thread));进入睡眠等待SM的唤醒。
SM在被MS唤醒后所做的处理如下:
SM同样在binder_thread_read时处于ret = wait_event_interruptible(thread->wait, binder_has_thread_work(thread));的睡眠当中,但是此时proc->todo已经有内容,在前面的MS write的过程进行了(list_add_tail(&t->work.entry, target_list);//binder_work添加到SM进程Proc链表中)操作,所以会执行:
w = list_first_entry(&proc->todo, struct binder_work, entry);//获取binder_work
t = container_of(w, struct binder_transaction, work);//通过binder_transaction的指针变量work为w,获取binder_transaction
最后获取binder_transaction t 用于SM和MS用来交互和中转信息。
有了从MS传递过来的t,将t的相关信息读取回SM的用户空间,传递给SM的命令为cmd=BR_TRANSACTION。
MS再次传递cmd=BC_REPLY,再次回到binder_thread_write
[plain]
{ //reply=1,sevice回复给client
in_reply_to = thread->transaction_stack;//获取当前事务性即原来MS传递给SM的binder_transaction变量t
if (in_reply_to == NULL) {
binder_user_error("binder: %d:%d got reply transaction "
"with no transaction stack\n",
proc->pid, thread->pid);
return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
goto err_empty_call_stack;
}
binder_set_nice(in_reply_to->saved_priority);
if (in_reply_to->to_thread != thread) {
binder_user_error("binder: %d:%d got reply transaction "
"with bad transaction stack,"
" transaction %d has target %d:%d\n",
proc->pid, thread->pid, in_reply_to->debug_id,
in_reply_to->to_proc ?
in_reply_to->to_proc->pid : 0,
in_reply_to->to_thread ?
in_reply_to->to_thread->pid : 0);
return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
in_reply_to = NULL;
goto err_bad_call_stack;
}
thread->transaction_stack = in_reply_to->to_parent;
target_thread = in_reply_to->from;//获取请求的线程
if (target_thread == NULL) {
return_error = BR_DEAD_REPLY;
goto err_dead_binder;
}
if (target_thread->transaction_stack != in_reply_to) {
binder_user_error("binder: %d:%d got reply transaction "
"with bad target transaction stack %d, "
"expected %d\n",
proc->pid, thread->pid,
target_thread->transaction_stack ?
target_thread->transaction_stack->debug_id : 0,
in_reply_to->debug_id);
return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
in_reply_to = NULL;
target_thread = NULL;
goto err_dead_binder;
}
target_proc = target_thread->proc;//请教进程的相关信息
}
前期MS在执行时,将MS自己的thread信息记录在了t当中。
[plain]
if (!reply && !(tr->flags & TF_ONE_WAY))
t->from = thread;//事务性记录from binder进程,即记录下请求进程
因此SM在执行binder_thread_write时,会获取到请求进程的thread,最终和前面MS唤醒SM一样,唤醒SM,只是现在的目标进程target_proc换成了MS的内容。
最终SM回互用户空间BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE,SM随后再次进行LOOP循环,睡眠等待其他请求进程的唤醒。
MS被唤醒后,所做的处理和SM被唤醒时相类似,在这里写会的cmd=BR_REPLY,以此完成了一次SM和MS的IPC.
2.3 binder 驱动C++层的机制简单介绍
可以简单的理解Binder IPC 实际就是C/S通过Linux的机制,对各自线程的信息进行维护,使SM和MS的用户空间不断和内核空间以ioctl进行读写的交互。服务端对信息进行解析完成相应的操作。客户度实际只需发送命令即可。作为应用程序的开发,Android很好的为我们做了各种封装,包括C++层次的binder和Java层次的binder驱动。
核心类:BpBinder(远程BinderProxy),BBinder(Native 本地Binder)
基于Binder C++层的机制,以SM和MS为例,在MS如果要和SM通信,就需要获得SM在MS进程中的一个Proxy,这里称之为BpServiceManager,BpServiceManager的操作函数分为addservice和getservice,需要的参量为一个Bpbinder(在这里就是SM远程的binder对象,相当于一个句柄,由于其特殊性,句柄数值为0)。
在2.2中分析的binder底层部分内容,就是基于用户空间的addservice开始的。在这里引用罗老师的UML图,方便自己的理解。
在这里只对BpServiceManager的addservice做解析,该类最终的实现其实还是调用BpBinder的transact来完成,而该函数的实现最终调用的是IPCThreadState的transact,在该transact代码如下:
[plain]
status_t IPCThreadState::transact(int32_t handle,
uint32_t code, const Parcel& data,
Parcel* reply, uint32_t flags) //handle=0,flags=0
{
status_t err = data.errorCheck();
flags |= TF_ACCEPT_FDS;
IF_LOG_TRANSACTIONS() {
TextOutput::Bundle _b(alog);
alog << "BC_TRANSACTION thr " << (void*)pthread_self() << " / hand "
<< handle << " / code " << TypeCode(code) << ": "
<< indent << data << dedent << endl;
}
if (err == NO_ERROR) {
LOG_ONEWAY(">>>> SEND from pid %d uid %d %s", getpid(), getuid(),
(flags & TF_ONE_WAY) == 0 ? "READ REPLY" : "ONE WAY");
err = writeTransactionData(BC_TRANSACTION, flags, handle, code, data, NULL);//将要发送的数据整理成一个binder_transaction_data
}
if (err != NO_ERROR) {
if (reply) reply->setError(err);
return (mLastError = err);
}
if ((flags & TF_ONE_WAY) == 0) {
#if 0
if (code == 4) { // relayout
LOGI(">>>>>> CALLING transaction 4");
} else {
LOGI(">>>>>> CALLING transaction %d", code);
}
#endif
if (reply) {
err = waitForResponse(reply);
} else {
Parcel fakeReply;
err = waitForResponse(&fakeReply);
}
#if 0
if (code == 4) { // relayout
LOGI("<<<<<< RETURNING transaction 4");
} else {
LOGI("<<<<<< RETURNING transaction %d", code);
}
#endif
IF_LOG_TRANSACTIONS() {
TextOutput::Bundle _b(alog);
alog << "BR_REPLY thr " << (void*)pthread_self() << " / hand "
<< handle << ": ";
if (reply) alog << indent << *reply << dedent << endl;
else alog << "(none requested)" << endl;
}
} else {
err = waitForResponse(NULL, NULL);
}
return err;
}
在这里真正实现ioctl的内容在waitForResponse的talkWithDriver中实现。
SM作为Android系统中特殊的一部分,他即可用当做服务端,也管理着系统的所有Service。新的服务需要向他完成注册才可以正常的使用。因此在这里的addservice就是在远程通过Binder驱动和SM交互,完成了MS的注册,注册传入的是一个BBinder的实体BnMediaPlayService,name=MediaPlay。
在C++的binder机制中,Bpxxx对应的Bnxxx(Bpxxx继承自BpBinder,Bnxxx继承自BBinder),简单理解就是Bnxxx在向SM完成注册后,会自动启动一个线程来等待客户端的请求,而在客户端如果要请求服务,需要获取一个Bpxxx远程代理来完成。Bpxxx在getservice时还回xxx服务的binder句柄,存放在Bpxxx对应的BpBinder的mHandle中。在binder驱动的底层会根据这个mHandle,查找到对应的target服务进程,同理根据2.2中MS唤醒SM的过程,进行命令的处理。
因此总结出在客户端需要服务时,首先获得Bpxxx(new BpBinder(mHandle))。然后是最终调用BpBinder的remote()->transact。而在用户端以BBinder->ontransact完成命令的解析。
2.4 Binder驱动的Java机制
简单的说一下Java层的binder驱动,其实这部分的难点还是在于Java 中Native函数在JNI的转换,感谢Google的开发人员,实现了Java和C++层的Binder函数的转换。
简单的总结3个小点:
1.Java层拥有一个SM的远程接口SMProxy,句柄为0 的BinderProxy对象,BinderProxy相当于BpBinder,在JNI实现转换。
2,Ixxx接口定义一个stub和proxy,Stub(存根):理解为本地服务。proxy:远程的代理。与C++相对应的前者就是Bnxxx,后者就是Bpxxx。www.2cto.com
3. xxx需要继承了Ixxx的Stub,才可以完成请求的处理。
2.5 总结
上面的内容,基本是自己的阅读和学习的感受,Binder驱动的复杂程度是难以想象的,源码量大。写完本文也没有全部读通,但是这也为深入的去了解整个android系统开辟了基础。其中有些内容都是参考罗老师的Android之旅来完成的,在这里表示感谢。在接下去的一端时间将在Android4.0.3 ICS上学习Android系统整个系统过程,主要关心的是3个开机画面,继续给力,最近身体不是很舒服,对着电脑头老是晕,效率下降了很多,但是依旧在继续努力,给自己加油。
