四大组件的工作过程

avartar

四大组件:Activity、Service、BroadcastReceiver、ContentProvider

四大组件的运行状态

Android的四大组件中除了BroadcastReceiver，其它三种组件必须在AndroidManifest中注册。对于BroadcastReceiver,既可以在AndroidManifest中注册，也可以通过代码注册。调用方式上，Activity、Service和BroadcastReceiver都需要借助Intent，而ContentProvider则不需要。

Activity是一种展示型组件。Activity的启动由Intent触发，Intent可以分为显示Intent和隐式Intent。

Service是一种计算型组件，它有两种状态：启动状态和绑定状态。Service虽然是运行在后台，但它本身是运行在主线程中。

BroadcastReceiver是一种消息型组件。它的注册有两种：静态注册和动态注册。

ContentProvider是一种数据共享型组件。它的内部需要实现增删改查这四种操作。这四个方法需要处理好线程同步。

Activity的工作过程

从Activity的startActivity方法开始分析，startActivity方法有几个重载，但最终都会调用startActivityForResult方法

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 {
            // Note we want to go through this call for compatibility with
            // applications that may have overridden the method.
            startActivityForResult(intent, -1);
        }
    }

startActivityForResult方法实现如下:

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) {
                // If this start is requesting a result, we can avoid making
                // the activity visible until the result is received.  Setting
                // this code during onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) or onResume() will keep the
                // activity hidden during this time, to avoid flickering.
                // This can only be done when a result is requested because
                // that guarantees we will get information back when the
                // activity is finished, no matter what happens to it.
                mStartedActivity = true;
            }

            cancelInputsAndStartExitTransition(options);
            // TODO Consider clearing/flushing other event sources and events for child windows.
        } else {
            if (options != null) {
                mParent.startActivityFromChild(this, intent, requestCode, options);
            } else {
                // Note we want to go through this method for compatibility with
                // existing applications that may have overridden it.
                mParent.startActivityFromChild(this, intent, requestCode);
            }
        }
    }

在mParent == null的分支里，会调用Instrumentation的execStartActivity方法

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 = ActivityManager.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;
    }

可以看到，ActivityManager.getService()是一个单例,返回的是一个Binder对象。

public static IActivityManager getService() {
        return IActivityManagerSingleton.get();
    }

private static final Singleton<IActivityManager> IActivityManagerSingleton =
            new Singleton<IActivityManager>() {
                @Override
                protected IActivityManager create() {
                    final IBinder b = ServiceManager.getService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
                    final IActivityManager am = IActivityManager.Stub.asInterface(b);
                    return am;
                }
            };

最终启动Activity是由ActivityManagerService的startActivity方法实现。

Activity的启动转移到了ActivityStarter的startActivityMayWait方法里

    }

在realStartActivityLocked方法中，通过ProcessRecord的thread来启动Activity。而thread是一个IApplicationThread类型的对象，它的具体实现为ActivityThread中的内部类ApplicationThread。

                boolean notResumed, boolean isForward, ProfilerInfo profilerInfo) {

            updateProcessState(procState, false);

            r.overrideConfig = overrideConfig;
            updatePendingConfiguration(curConfig);

            sendMessage(H.LAUNCH_ACTIVITY, r);
        }

到这里，Activity的启动已经转到了ApplicationThread中。在scheduleLaunchActivity方法中，发了一个启动的消息LAUNCH_ACTIVITY出去。

Service的工作过程

Service的启动过程

Service的启动是从ContextWrapper的startService开始

1
2
3
public ComponentName startService(Intent service) {
        return mBase.startService(service);
    }

mBase的具体类型是ContextImpl,Activity创建时会通过attach将一个ContextImpl对象关联起来。startService方法会调用startServiceCommon方法。

1

3
4
public ComponentName startService(Intent service) {
        warnIfCallingFromSystemProcess();
        return startServiceCommon(service, false, mUser);
    }

startServiceCommon对象会调用ActivityManagerService的startService方法,这是一个远程调用的过程。

private ComponentName startServiceCommon(Intent service, boolean requireForeground,

        //...
        ComponentName cn = ActivityManager.getService().startService(
                mMainThread.getApplicationThread(), service, service.resolveTypeIfNeeded(
                            getContentResolver()), requireForeground,
                            getOpPackageName(), user.getIdentifier());
        //...
    }

ActivityManagerService的startService方法

public ComponentName startService(IApplicationThread caller, Intent service,
            String resolvedType, boolean requireForeground, String callingPackage, int userId)
            throws TransactionTooLargeException {
        //...
        res = mServices.startServiceLocked(caller, service,
                        resolvedType, callingPid, callingUid,
                        requireForeground, callingPackage, userId);
        //...
    }

startService方法会调用ActiveServices的startServiceLocked方法

ComponentName startServiceLocked(IApplicationThread caller, Intent service, String resolvedType,
            int callingPid, int callingUid, boolean fgRequired, String callingPackage, final int userId)
            throws TransactionTooLargeException {
        //...
        ComponentName cmp = startServiceInnerLocked(smap, service, r, callerFg, addToStarting);
        return cmp;
    }

在startServiceLocked方法里会调用startServiceInnerLocked方法

ComponentName startServiceInnerLocked(ServiceMap smap, Intent service, ServiceRecord r,
            boolean callerFg, boolean addToStarting) throws TransactionTooLargeException {
        //...
        String error = bringUpServiceLocked(r, service.getFlags(), callerFg, false, false);
        if (error != null) {
            return new ComponentName("!!", error);
        }
        //...
    }

startServiceInnerLocked里调用了bringUpServiceLocked方法

1
2
3
4

private String bringUpServiceLocked(ServiceRecord r, int intentFlags, boolean execInFg,
            boolean whileRestarting, boolean permissionsReviewRequired)
            throws TransactionTooLargeException {
        //...
        realStartServiceLocked(r, app, execInFg);
        //...
    }

bringUpServiceLocked里调用realStartServiceLocked方法

11
12
private final void realStartServiceLocked(ServiceRecord r,
            ProcessRecord app, boolean execInFg) throws RemoteException {
        //...
        //创建Service
        app.thread.scheduleCreateService(r, r.serviceInfo,
                    mAm.compatibilityInfoForPackageLocked(r.serviceInfo.applicationInfo),
                    app.repProcState);
        //...
        //调用Service的start方法
        sendServiceArgsLocked(r, execInFg, true);
        //...
    }

realStartServiceLocked调用ApplicationThread中的scheduleCreateService方法

1

9
10
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);
        }

在scheduleCreateService方法里，发了一个创建服务的消息出去。Handler处理CREATE_SERVICE的消息，并通过ActivityThread的handleCreateService方法来完成Service的启动。

Service的绑定过程

Service的绑定是从ContextWrapper的bindService方法开始的

public boolean bindService(Intent service, ServiceConnection conn,
            int flags) {
        return mBase.bindService(service, conn, flags);

public boolean bindService(Intent service, ServiceConnection conn,
            int flags) {
        warnIfCallingFromSystemProcess();
        return bindServiceCommon(service, conn, flags, mMainThread.getHandler(),
                Process.myUserHandle());

BroadcastReceiver的工作过程

广播的注册过程

广播的注册分为静态注册和动态注册，其中静态注册的广播在应用安装时由系统自动完成注册。这里只分析广播的动态注册过程。动态注册是从ContextWrapper的registerReceiver方法开始的

public Intent registerReceiver(
        BroadcastReceiver receiver, IntentFilter filter) {
        return mBase.registerReceiver(receiver, filter);
    }

registerReceiver调用ContextImpl中的registerReceiver方法

1
2
3
public Intent registerReceiver(BroadcastReceiver receiver, IntentFilter filter) {
        return registerReceiver(receiver, filter, null, null);
    }

registerReceiver再调用内部的registerReceiver方法

public Intent registerReceiver(BroadcastReceiver receiver, IntentFilter filter,
            String broadcastPermission, Handler scheduler) {
        return registerReceiverInternal(receiver, getUserId(),
                filter, broadcastPermission, scheduler, getOuterContext(), 0);
    }

registerReceiver会调用registerReceiverInternal方法

            Handler scheduler, Context context, int flags) {
        //...
        try {
            final Intent intent = ActivityManager.getService().registerReceiver(
                    mMainThread.getApplicationThread(), mBasePackageName, rd, filter,
                    broadcastPermission, userId, flags);
            if (intent != null) {
                intent.setExtrasClassLoader(getClassLoader());
                intent.prepareToEnterProcess();
            }
            return intent;
        } catch (RemoteException e) {
            throw e.rethrowFromSystemServer();
        }
    }

        //...
        synchronized (this) {
            //...
            BroadcastFilter bf = new BroadcastFilter(filter, rl, callerPackage,
                    permission, callingUid, userId, instantApp, visibleToInstantApps);
            rl.add(bf);
            if (!bf.debugCheck()) {
                Slog.w(TAG, "==> For Dynamic broadcast");
            }
            mReceiverResolver.addFilter(bf);
            //...
            return sticky;
        }
    }

广播的发送和接收过程

广播的发送是通过ContextWrapper的sendBroadcast方法实现的

1

public void sendBroadcast(Intent intent) {
        mBase.sendBroadcast(intent);
    }

sendBroadcast调用了ContextImpl中的sendBroadcast方法

        try {
            intent.prepareToLeaveProcess(this);
            ActivityManager.getService().broadcastIntent(
                    mMainThread.getApplicationThread(), intent, resolvedType, null,
                    Activity.RESULT_OK, null, null, null, AppOpsManager.OP_NONE, null, false, false,
                    getUserId());
        } catch (RemoteException e) {
            throw e.rethrowFromSystemServer();

            int resultCode, String resultData, Bundle resultExtras,
            String[] requiredPermissions, int appOp, Bundle bOptions,
            boolean serialized, boolean sticky, int userId) {
        enforceNotIsolatedCaller("broadcastIntent");
        synchronized(this) {
            intent = verifyBroadcastLocked(intent);

            final ProcessRecord callerApp = getRecordForAppLocked(caller);
            final int callingPid = Binder.getCallingPid();
            final int callingUid = Binder.getCallingUid();
            final long origId = Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
            int res = broadcastIntentLocked(callerApp,
                    callerApp != null ? callerApp.info.packageName : null,
                    intent, resolvedType, resultTo, resultCode, resultData, resultExtras,
                    requiredPermissions, appOp, bOptions, serialized, sticky,
                    callingPid, callingUid, userId);
            Binder.restoreCallingIdentity(origId);
            return res;
        }
    }

broadcastIntent调用broadcastIntentLocked方法

final int broadcastIntentLocked(ProcessRecord callerApp,
            String callerPackage, Intent intent, String resolvedType,

            Bundle resultExtras, String[] requiredPermissions, int appOp, Bundle bOptions,
            boolean ordered, boolean sticky, int callingPid, int callingUid, int userId) {
                //...
                queue.enqueueOrderedBroadcastLocked(r);
                queue.scheduleBroadcastsLocked();
                //...
}

broadcastIntentLocked调用了BroadcastQueue的enqueueOrderedBroadcastLocked将广播添加到队列中，通过BroadcastQueue的scheduleBroadcastsLocked来处理队列中的广播。

public void scheduleBroadcastsLocked() {

                + mBroadcastsScheduled);

        if (mBroadcastsScheduled) {
            return;
        }
        mHandler.sendMessage(mHandler.obtainMessage(BROADCAST_INTENT_MSG, this));
        mBroadcastsScheduled = true;
    }

在scheduleBroadcastsLocked方法中，通过Handler发送了一个BROADCAST_INTENT_MSG的消息

                    if (DEBUG_BROADCAST) Slog.v(
                            TAG_BROADCAST, "Received BROADCAST_INTENT_MSG");
                    processNextBroadcast(true);
                } break;
                case BROADCAST_TIMEOUT_MSG: {
                    synchronized (mService) {
                        broadcastTimeoutLocked(true);
                    }
                } break;
            }
        }

在Handler的handleMessage方法中处理消息,调用了processNextBroadcast方法

final void processNextBroadcast(boolean fromMsg) {
        //...
        deliverToRegisteredReceiverLocked(r, filter, r.ordered, recIdx);

                } else {
                    IActivityManager mgr = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault();

                    try {
                        if (extras != null) {
                            extras.setAllowFds(false);
                        }

                        mgr.finishReceiver(this, resultCode, data, extras, false, intent.getFlags());
                    } catch (RemoteException var11) {
                        throw var11.rethrowFromSystemServer();
                    }
                }

            }

            if (intent == null) {
                Log.wtf("LoadedApk", "Null intent received");
            }

            if ((intent == null || !this.mActivityThread.post(args)) && this.mRegistered && ordered) {

                args.sendFinished(mgr);
            }

        }

performReceive调用ActivityThread的内部类Handler的post方法,将Args发送出去，Args是一个Runnable接口，在Handler处理消息时，会回调Args的run方法

public void run() {

                //...
            }

在run中回调receiver的onReceiver方法

ContentProvider的工作过程

当ContentProvider所在的进程启动时，ContentProvider会同时启动并被发布到AMS中，这个时候ContentProvider的onCreate要先于Application的onCreate执行。

应用启动时的入口为ActivityThread的main方法

        ActivityThread thread = new ActivityThread();
        thread.attach(false);

        if (sMainThreadHandler == null) {
            sMainThreadHandler = thread.getHandler();
        }

        if (false) {
            Looper.myLooper().setMessageLogging(new
                    LogPrinter(Log.DEBUG, "ActivityThread"));
        }

        // End of event ActivityThreadMain.
        Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
        Looper.loop();

        throw new RuntimeException("Main thread loop unexpectedly exited");
    }

在main方法中，会创建ActivityThread的实例，并调用attach方法，然后调用Looper.loop方法。这里主要分析attach方法。

            } catch (RemoteException ex) {
                throw ex.rethrowFromSystemServer();
            }

            attachApplicationLocked(thread, callingPid);
            Binder.restoreCallingIdentity(origId);

                ComponentName comp = new ComponentName(dst.info.packageName, dst.info.name);
                    mProviderMap.putProviderByClass(comp, dst);
                    String names[] = dst.info.authority.split(";");
                    for (int j = 0; j < names.length; j++) {
                        mProviderMap.putProviderByName(names[j], dst);
                    }
                //...
                if (wasInLaunchingProviders) {
                        mHandler.removeMessages(CONTENT_PROVIDER_PUBLISH_TIMEOUT_MSG, r);
                    }
                //...
    }

在publishContentProviders方法中，主要是将provider信息保存到Map中，移除CONTENT_PROVIDER_PUBLISH_TIMEOUT_MSG消息。因为在AMS的attachApplicationLocked方法中发送了一个CONTENT_PROVIDER_PUBLISH_TIMEOUT_MSG消息，以便在超时的时候作出相应的处理。

ContentProvider的启动时序图

avartar

访问ContentProvider需要通过ContentResolver,ContentResolver是一个抽象类，通过Context获取到的ContentResolver，其实是ContextImpl中的内部类ApplicationContentResolver的一个实例。当ContentProvider所在进程未启动时，第一次访问它就会触发ContentProvider的创建，ContentProvider的进程也会启动。通过ContentProvider的增删改查的任何一个方法都会触发ContentProvider的启动。这里选择query方法来分析。

ContentProvider的使用方法一般是如下这样：

1
context.getContentResolver().query()

context的实现类是ContextWrapper.来看ContextWrapper的getContentResolver方法

1
2
3
public ContentResolver getContentResolver() {
        return mBase.getContentResolver();
    }

getContentResolver调用ContextImpl的getContentResolver方法

1
2
3
public ContentResolver getContentResolver() {
        return mContentResolver;
    }

mContentResolver是在ContextImpl的构造函数中初始化的

private ContextImpl(@Nullable ContextImpl container, @NonNull ActivityThread mainThread,
            @NonNull LoadedApk packageInfo, @Nullable String splitName,
            @Nullable IBinder activityToken, @Nullable UserHandle user, int flags,
            @Nullable ClassLoader classLoader) {
            //...
        mContentResolver = new ApplicationContentResolver(this, mainThread, user);
            //...
    }

ApplicationContentResolver是ContextImpl的内部类。实例化ContentResolver后，调用query方法

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
public final @Nullable Cursor query(final @RequiresPermission.Read @NonNull Uri uri,
            @Nullable String[] projection, @Nullable Bundle queryArgs,
            @Nullable CancellationSignal cancellationSignal) {
        //...
        IContentProvider unstableProvider = acquireUnstableProvider(uri);
        //...
    }

在query方法里，先通过acquireUnstableProvider获取ContentProvider

1
2
3
4
5

7
8
9
10
public final IContentProvider acquireUnstableProvider(Uri uri) {
        if (!SCHEME_CONTENT.equals(uri.getScheme())) {
            return null;
        }
        String auth = uri.getAuthority();
        if (auth != null) {
            return acquireUnstableProvider(mContext, uri.getAuthority());
        }
        return null;
    }

acquireUnstableProvider会调用它的重载方法acquireUnstableProvider

protected IContentProvider acquireUnstableProvider(Context c, String auth) {
            return this.mMainThread.acquireProvider(c, ContentProvider.getAuthorityWithoutUserId(auth), this.resolveUserIdFromAuthority(auth), false);
        }

acquireUnstableProvider方法会调用ActivityThread的acquireProvider方法

        final IContentProvider provider = acquireExistingProvider(c, auth, userId, stable);
        if (provider != null) {
            return provider;
        }

        // There is a possible race here.  Another thread may try to acquire
        // the same provider at the same time.  When this happens, we want to ensure
        // that the first one wins.
        // Note that we cannot hold the lock while acquiring and installing the
        // provider since it might take a long time to run and it could also potentially
        // be re-entrant in the case where the provider is in the same process.
        ContentProviderHolder holder = null;
        try {
            holder = ActivityManager.getService().getContentProvider(
                    getApplicationThread(), auth, userId, stable);
        } catch (RemoteException ex) {
            throw ex.rethrowFromSystemServer();
        }
        if (holder == null) {
            Slog.e(TAG, "Failed to find provider info for " + auth);
            return null;
        }

        // Install provider will increment the reference count for us, and break
        // any ties in the race.
        holder = installProvider(c, holder, holder.info,
                true /*noisy*/, holder.noReleaseNeeded, stable);
        return holder.provider;
    }

如果有缓存过ContentProvider，则直接获取返回。如果没有缓存，则通过AMS的getContentProvider方法获取

        // The incoming user check is now handled in checkContentProviderPermissionLocked() to deal

        return getContentProviderImpl(caller, name, null, stable, userId);

ContentProviderHolder调用getContentProviderImpl方法获取ContentResoverHolder

获取到Provider后，就会调用ContentProvider的query方法，这个方法是我们自定义ContentProvider时需要实现的。代码就切换到了我们定义的ContentProvider。
