篇首语:本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理,主要介绍了Android系统进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder中的Server启动过程源代码分析相关的知识,希望对你有一定的参考价值。

        在前面一篇文章浅谈Android系统进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder中的Server和Client获得Service Manager接口之路中,介绍了在android系统中Binder进程间通信机制中的Server角色是如何获得Service Manager远程接口的,即defaultServiceManager函数的实现。Server获得了Service Manager远程接口之后,就要把自己的Service添加到Service Manager中去,然后把自己启动起来,等待Client的请求。本文将通过分析源代码了解Server的启动过程是怎么样的。

《Android系统源代码情景分析》一书正在进击的程序员网(http://0xcc0xcd.com)中连载,点击进入!

        本文通过一个具体的例子来说明Binder机制中Server的启动过程。我们知道,在Android系统中,提供了多媒体播放的功能,这个功能是以服务的形式来提供的。这里,我们就通过分析MediaPlayerService的实现来了解Media Server的启动过程。

        首先,看一下MediaPlayerService的类图,以便我们理解下面要描述的内容。


        我们将要介绍的主角MediaPlayerService继承于BnMediaPlayerService类,熟悉Binder机制的同学应该知道BnMediaPlayerService是一个Binder Native类,用来处理Client请求的。BnMediaPlayerService继承于BnInterface<IMediaPlayerService>类,BnInterface是一个模板类,它定义在frameworks/base/include/binder/IInterface.h文件中:

template<typename INTERFACE>
class BnInterface : public INTERFACE, public BBinder

public:
    virtual sp<IInterface>      queryLocalInterface(const String16& _descriptor);
    virtual const String16&     getInterfaceDescriptor() const;

protected:
    virtual IBinder*            onAsBinder();
;
       这里可以看出,BnMediaPlayerService实际是继承了IMediaPlayerService和BBinder类。IMediaPlayerService和BBinder类又分别继承了IInterface和IBinder类,IInterface和IBinder类又同时继承了RefBase类。

       实际上,BnMediaPlayerService并不是直接接收到Client处发送过来的请求,而是使用了IPCThreadState接收Client处发送过来的请求,而IPCThreadState又借助了ProcessState类来与Binder驱动程序交互。有关IPCThreadState和ProcessState的关系,可以参考上一篇文章浅谈Android系统进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder中的Server和Client获得Service Manager接口之路,接下来也会有相应的描述。IPCThreadState接收到了Client处的请求后,就会调用BBinder类的transact函数,并传入相关参数,BBinder类的transact函数最终调用BnMediaPlayerService类的onTransact函数,于是,就开始真正地处理Client的请求了。

      了解了MediaPlayerService类结构之后,就要开始进入到本文的主题了。

      首先,看看MediaPlayerService是如何启动的。启动MediaPlayerService的代码位于frameworks/base/media/mediaserver/main_mediaserver.cpp文件中:

int main(int argc, char** argv)

    sp<ProcessState> proc(ProcessState::self());
    sp<IServiceManager> sm = defaultServiceManager();
    LOGI("ServiceManager: %p", sm.get());
    AudioFlinger::instantiate();
    MediaPlayerService::instantiate();
    CameraService::instantiate();
    AudioPolicyService::instantiate();
    ProcessState::self()->startThreadPool();
    IPCThreadState::self()->joinThreadPool();
       这里我们不关注AudioFlinger和CameraService相关的代码。

       先看下面这句代码:

   sp<ProcessState> proc(ProcessState::self());
       这句代码的作用是通过ProcessState::self()调用创建一个ProcessState实例。ProcessState::self()是ProcessState类的一个静态成员变量,定义在frameworks/base/libs/binder/ProcessState.cpp文件中:

sp<ProcessState> ProcessState::self()

    if (gProcess != NULL) return gProcess;
    
    AutoMutex _l(gProcessMutex);
    if (gProcess == NULL) gProcess = new ProcessState;
    return gProcess;
       这里可以看出,这个函数作用是返回一个全局唯一的ProcessState实例gProcess。全局唯一实例变量gProcess定义在frameworks/base/libs/binder/Static.cpp文件中:

Mutex gProcessMutex;
sp<ProcessState> gProcess;
       再来看ProcessState的构造函数:

ProcessState::ProcessState()
    : mDriverFD(open_driver())
    , mVMStart(MAP_FAILED)
    , mManagesContexts(false)
    , mBinderContextCheckFunc(NULL)
    , mBinderContextUserData(NULL)
    , mThreadPoolStarted(false)
    , mThreadPoolSeq(1)

    if (mDriverFD >= 0) 
        // XXX Ideally, there should be a specific define for whether we
        // have mmap (or whether we could possibly have the kernel module
        // availabla).
#if !defined(HAVE_WIN32_IPC)
        // mmap the binder, providing a chunk of virtual address space to receive transactions.
        mVMStart = mmap(0, BINDER_VM_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_NORESERVE, mDriverFD, 0);
        if (mVMStart == MAP_FAILED) 
            // *sigh*
            LOGE("Using /dev/binder failed: unable to mmap transaction memory.\\n");
            close(mDriverFD);
            mDriverFD = -1;
        
#else
        mDriverFD = -1;
#endif
    
    if (mDriverFD < 0) 
        // Need to run without the driver, starting our own thread pool.
    
        这个函数有两个关键地方,一是通过open_driver函数打开Binder设备文件/dev/binder,并将打开设备文件描述符保存在成员变量mDriverFD中;二是通过mmap来把设备文件/dev/binder映射到内存中。

        先看open_driver函数的实现,这个函数同样位于frameworks/base/libs/binder/ProcessState.cpp文件中:

static int open_driver()

    if (gSingleProcess) 
        return -1;
    

    int fd = open("/dev/binder", O_RDWR);
    if (fd >= 0) 
        fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC);
        int vers;
#if defined(HAVE_ANDROID_OS)
        status_t result = ioctl(fd, BINDER_VERSION, &vers);
#else
        status_t result = -1;
        errno = EPERM;
#endif
        if (result == -1) 
            LOGE("Binder ioctl to obtain version failed: %s", strerror(errno));
            close(fd);
            fd = -1;
        
        if (result != 0 || vers != BINDER_CURRENT_PROTOCOL_VERSION) 
            LOGE("Binder driver protocol does not match user space protocol!");
            close(fd);
            fd = -1;
        
#if defined(HAVE_ANDROID_OS)
        size_t maxThreads = 15;
        result = ioctl(fd, BINDER_SET_MAX_THREADS, &maxThreads);
        if (result == -1) 
            LOGE("Binder ioctl to set max threads failed: %s", strerror(errno));
        
#endif
        
     else 
        LOGW("Opening '/dev/binder' failed: %s\\n", strerror(errno));
    
    return fd;
        这个函数的作用主要是通过open文件操作函数来打开/dev/binder设备文件,然后再调用ioctl文件控制函数来分别执行BINDER_VERSION和BINDER_SET_MAX_THREADS两个命令来和Binder驱动程序进行交互,前者用于获得当前Binder驱动程序的版本号,后者用于通知Binder驱动程序,MediaPlayerService最多可同时启动15个线程来处理Client端的请求。

        open在Binder驱动程序中的具体实现,请参考前面一篇文章浅谈Service Manager成为Android进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder守护进程之路,这里不再重复描述。打开/dev/binder设备文件后,Binder驱动程序就为MediaPlayerService进程创建了一个struct binder_proc结构体实例来维护MediaPlayerService进程上下文相关信息。

        我们来看一下ioctl文件操作函数执行BINDER_VERSION命令的过程:

status_t result = ioctl(fd, BINDER_VERSION, &vers);
        这个函数调用最终进入到Binder驱动程序的binder_ioctl函数中,我们只关注BINDER_VERSION相关的部分逻辑:

static long binder_ioctl(struct file *filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)

	int ret;
	struct binder_proc *proc = filp->private_data;
	struct binder_thread *thread;
	unsigned int size = _IOC_SIZE(cmd);
	void __user *ubuf = (void __user *)arg;

	/*printk(KERN_INFO "binder_ioctl: %d:%d %x %lx\\n", proc->pid, current->pid, cmd, arg);*/

	ret = wait_event_interruptible(binder_user_error_wait, binder_stop_on_user_error < 2);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	mutex_lock(&binder_lock);
	thread = binder_get_thread(proc);
	if (thread == NULL) 
		ret = -ENOMEM;
		goto err;
	

	switch (cmd) 
	......
	case BINDER_VERSION:
		if (size != sizeof(struct binder_version)) 
			ret = -EINVAL;
			goto err;
		
		if (put_user(BINDER_CURRENT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, &((struct binder_version *)ubuf)->protocol_version)) 
			ret = -EINVAL;
			goto err;
		
		break;
	......
	
	ret = 0;
err:
        ......
	return ret;

        很简单,只是将BINDER_CURRENT_PROTOCOL_VERSION写入到传入的参数arg指向的用户缓冲区中去就返回了。BINDER_CURRENT_PROTOCOL_VERSION是一个宏,定义在kernel/common/drivers/staging/android/binder.h文件中:

/* This is the current protocol version. */
#define BINDER_CURRENT_PROTOCOL_VERSION 7
       这里为什么要把ubuf转换成struct binder_version之后,再通过其protocol_version成员变量再来写入呢,转了一圈,最终内容还是写入到ubuf中。我们看一下struct binder_version的定义就会明白,同样是在kernel/common/drivers/staging/android/binder.h文件中:

/* Use with BINDER_VERSION, driver fills in fields. */
struct binder_version 
	/* driver protocol version -- increment with incompatible change */
	signed long	protocol_version;
;
        从注释中可以看出来,这里是考虑到兼容性,因为以后很有可能不是用signed long来表示版本号。

        这里有一个重要的地方要注意的是,由于这里是打开设备文件/dev/binder之后,第一次进入到binder_ioctl函数,因此,这里调用binder_get_thread的时候,就会为当前线程创建一个struct binder_thread结构体变量来维护线程上下文信息,具体可以参考浅谈Service Manager成为Android进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder守护进程之路一文。

        接着我们再来看一下ioctl文件操作函数执行BINDER_SET_MAX_THREADS命令的过程:

result = ioctl(fd, BINDER_SET_MAX_THREADS, &maxThreads);

        这个函数调用最终进入到Binder驱动程序的binder_ioctl函数中,我们只关注BINDER_SET_MAX_THREADS相关的部分逻辑:

static long binder_ioctl(struct file *filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)

	int ret;
	struct binder_proc *proc = filp->private_data;
	struct binder_thread *thread;
	unsigned int size = _IOC_SIZE(cmd);
	void __user *ubuf = (void __user *)arg;

	/*printk(KERN_INFO "binder_ioctl: %d:%d %x %lx\\n", proc->pid, current->pid, cmd, arg);*/

	ret = wait_event_interruptible(binder_user_error_wait, binder_stop_on_user_error < 2);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	mutex_lock(&binder_lock);
	thread = binder_get_thread(proc);
	if (thread == NULL) 
		ret = -ENOMEM;
		goto err;
	

	switch (cmd) 
	......
	case BINDER_SET_MAX_THREADS:
		if (copy_from_user(&proc->max_threads, ubuf, sizeof(proc->max_threads))) 
			ret = -EINVAL;
			goto err;
		
		break;
	......
	
	ret = 0;
err:
	......
	return ret;
        这里实现也是非常简单,只是简单地把用户传进来的参数保存在proc->max_threads中就完毕了。注意,这里再调用binder_get_thread函数的时候,就可以在proc->threads中找到当前线程对应的struct binder_thread结构了,因为前面已经创建好并保存在proc->threads红黑树中。

        回到ProcessState的构造函数中,这里还通过mmap函数来把设备文件/dev/binder映射到内存中,这个函数在浅谈Service Manager成为Android进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder守护进程之路一文也已经有详细介绍,这里不再重复描述。宏BINDER_VM_SIZE就定义在ProcessState.cpp文件中:

#define BINDER_VM_SIZE ((1*1024*1024) - (4096 *2))
        mmap函数调用完成之后,Binder驱动程序就为当前进程预留了BINDER_VM_SIZE大小的内存空间了。

        这样,ProcessState全局唯一变量gProcess就创建完毕了,回到frameworks/base/media/mediaserver/main_mediaserver.cpp文件中的main函数,下一步是调用defaultServiceManager函数来获得Service Manager的远程接口,这个已经在上一篇文章浅谈Android系统进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder中的Server和Client获得Service Manager接口之路有详细描述,读者可以回过头去参考一下。

        再接下来,就进入到MediaPlayerService::instantiate函数把MediaPlayerService添加到Service Manger中去了。这个函数定义在frameworks/base/media/libmediaplayerservice/MediaPlayerService.cpp文件中:

void MediaPlayerService::instantiate() 
    defaultServiceManager()->addService(
            String16("media.player"), new MediaPlayerService());
        我们重点看一下IServiceManger::addService的过程,这有助于我们加深对Binder机制的理解。

        在上一篇文章浅谈Android系统进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder中的Server和Client获得Service Manager接口之路中说到,defaultServiceManager返回的实际是一个BpServiceManger类实例,因此,我们看一下BpServiceManger::addService的实现,这个函数实现在frameworks/base/libs/binder/IServiceManager.cpp文件中:

class BpServiceManager : public BpInterface<IServiceManager>

public:
	BpServiceManager(const sp<IBinder>& impl)
		: BpInterface<IServiceManager>(impl)
	
	

	......

	virtual status_t addService(const String16& name, const sp<IBinder>& service)
	
		Parcel data, reply;
		data.writeInterfaceToken(IServiceManager::getInterfaceDescriptor());
		data.writeString16(name);
		data.writeStrongBinder(service);
		status_t err = remote()->transact(ADD_SERVICE_TRANSACTION, data, &reply);
		return err == NO_ERROR ? reply.readExceptionCode() 
	

	......

;

         这里的Parcel类是用来于序列化进程间通信数据用的。

         先来看这一句的调用:

data.writeInterfaceToken(IServiceManager::getInterfaceDescriptor());
         IServiceManager::getInterfaceDescriptor()返回来的是一个字符串,即"android.os.IServiceManager",具体可以参考IServiceManger的实现。我们看一下Parcel::writeInterfaceToken的实现,位于frameworks/base/libs/binder/Parcel.cpp文件中:

// Write RPC headers.  (previously just the interface token)
status_t Parcel::writeInterfaceToken(const String16& interface)

    writeInt32(IPCThreadState::self()->getStrictModePolicy() |
               STRICT_MODE_PENALTY_GATHER);
    // currently the interface identification token is just its name as a string
    return writeString16(interface);
         它的作用是写入一个整数和一个字符串到Parcel中去。

         再来看下面的调用:

data.writeString16(name);
        这里又是写入一个字符串到Parcel中去,这里的name即是上面传进来的“media.player”字符串。

        往下看:

data.writeStrongBinder(service);
        这里定入一个Binder对象到Parcel去。我们重点看一下这个函数的实现,因为它涉及到进程间传输Binder实体的问题,比较复杂,需要重点关注,同时,也是理解Binder机制的一个重点所在。注意,这里的service参数是一个MediaPlayerService对象。

status_t Parcel::writeStrongBinder(const sp<IBinder>& val)

    return flatten_binder(ProcessState::self(), val, this);
        看到flatten_binder函数,是不是似曾相识的感觉?我们在前面一篇文章 浅谈Service Manager成为Android进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder守护进程之路中,曾经提到在Binder驱动程序中,使用struct flat_binder_object来表示传输中的一个binder对象,它的定义如下所示:

/*
 * This is the flattened representation of a Binder object for transfer
 * between processes.  The 'offsets' supplied as part of a binder transaction
 * contains offsets into the data where these structures occur.  The Binder
 * driver takes care of re-writing the structure type and data as it moves
 * between processes.
 */
struct flat_binder_object 
	/* 8 bytes for large_flat_header. */
	unsigned long		type;
	unsigned long		flags;

	/* 8 bytes of data. */
	union 
		void		*binder;	/* local object */
		signed long	handle;		/* remote object */
	;

	/* extra data associated with local object */
	void			*cookie;
;
        各个成员变量的含义请参考资料 Android Binder设计与实现

        我们进入到flatten_binder函数看看:

status_t flatten_binder(const sp<ProcessState>& proc,
    const sp<IBinder>& binder, Parcel* out)

    flat_binder_object obj;
    
    obj.flags = 0x7f | FLAT_BINDER_FLAG_ACCEPTS_FDS;
    if (binder != NULL) 
        IBinder *local = binder->localBinder();
        if (!local) 
            BpBinder *proxy = binder->remoteBinder();
            if (proxy == NULL) 
                LOGE("null proxy");
            
            const int32_t handle = proxy ? proxy->handle() : 0;
            obj.type = BINDER_TYPE_HANDLE;
            obj.handle = handle;
            obj.cookie = NULL;
         else 
            obj.type = BINDER_TYPE_BINDER;
            obj.binder = local->getWeakRefs();
            obj.cookie = local;
        
     else 
        obj.type = BINDER_TYPE_BINDER;
        obj.binder = NULL;
        obj.cookie = NULL;
    
    
    return finish_flatten_binder(binder, obj, out);
        首先是初始化flat_binder_object的flags域:

obj.flags = 0x7f | FLAT_BINDER_FLAG_ACCEPTS_FDS;
        0x7f表示处理本Binder实体请求数据包的线程的最低优先级,FLAT_BINDER_FLAG_ACCEPTS_FDS表示这个Binder实体可以接受文件描述符,Binder实体在收到文件描述符时,就会在本进程中打开这个文件。

       传进来的binder即为MediaPlayerService::instantiate函数中new出来的MediaPlayerService实例,因此,不为空。又由于MediaPlayerService继承自BBinder类,它是一个本地Binder实体,因此binder->localBinder返回一个BBinder指针,而且肯定不为空,于是执行下面语句:

obj.type = BINDER_TYPE_BINDER;
obj.binder = local->getWeakRefs();
obj.cookie = local;
        设置了flat_binder_obj的其他成员变量,注意,指向这个Binder实体地址的指针local保存在flat_binder_obj的成员变量cookie中。

        函数调用finish_flatten_binder来将这个flat_binder_obj写入到Parcel中去:

inline static status_t finish_flatten_binder(
    const sp<IBinder>& binder, const flat_binder_object& flat, Parcel* out)

    return out->writeObject(flat, false);
       Parcel::writeObject的实现如下:

status_t Parcel::writeObject(const flat_binder_object& val, bool nullMetaData)

    const bool enoughData = (mDataPos+sizeof(val)) <= mDataCapacity;
    const bool enoughObjects = mObjectsSize < mObjectsCapacity;
    if (enoughData && enoughObjects) 
restart_write:
        *reinterpret_cast<flat_binder_object*>(mData+mDataPos) = val;
        
        // Need to write meta-data?
        if (nullMetaData || val.binder != NULL) 
            mObjects[mObjectsSize] = mDataPos;
            acquire_object(ProcessState::self(), val, this);
            mObjectsSize++;
        
        
        // remember if it's a file descriptor
        if (val.type == BINDER_TYPE_FD) 
            mHasFds = mFdsKnown = true;
        

        return finishWrite(sizeof(flat_binder_object));
    

    if (!enoughData) 
        const status_t err = growData(sizeof(val));
        if (err != NO_ERROR) return err;
    
    if (!enoughObjects) 
        size_t newSize = ((mObjectsSize+2)*3)/2;
        size_t* objects = (size_t*)realloc(mObjects, newSize*sizeof(size_t));
        if (objects == NULL) return NO_MEMORY;
        mObjects = objects;
        mObjectsCapacity = newSize;
    
    
    goto restart_write;
        这里除了把flat_binder_obj写到Parcel里面之内,还要记录这个flat_binder_obj在Parcel里面的偏移位置:

mObjects[mObjectsSize] = mDataPos;
       这里因为,如果进程间传输的数据间带有Binder对象的时候,Binder驱动程序需要作进一步的处理,以维护各个Binder实体的一致性,下面我们将会看到Binder驱动程序是怎么处理这些Binder对象的。

       再回到BpServiceManager::addService函数中,调用下面语句:

status_t err = remote()->transact(ADD_SERVICE_TRANSACTION, data, &reply);
       回到 浅谈Android系统进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder中的Server和Client获得Service Manager接口之路一文中的类图中去看一下,这里的remote成员函数来自于BpRefBase类,它返回一个BpBinder指针。因此,我们继续进入到BpBinder::transact函数中去看看:

status_t BpBinder::transact(
    uint32_t code, const Parcel& data, Parcel* reply, uint32_t flags)

    // Once a binder has died, it will never come back to life.
    if (mAlive) 
        status_t status = IPCThreadState::self()->transact(
            mHandle, code, data, reply, flags);
        if (status == DEAD_OBJECT) mAlive = 0;
        return status;
    

    return DEAD_OBJECT;
       这里又调用了IPCThreadState::transact进执行实际的操作。注意,这里的mHandle为0,code为ADD_SERVICE_TRANSACTION。ADD_SERVICE_TRANSACTION是上面以参数形式传进来的,那mHandle为什么是0呢?因为这里表示的是Service Manager远程接口,它的句柄值一定是0,具体请参考 浅谈Android系统进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder中的Server和Client获得Service Manager接口之路一文。
       再进入到IPCThreadState::transact函数,看看做了些什么事情:

status_t IPCThreadState::transact(int32_t handle,
                                  uint32_t code, const Parcel& data,
                                  Parcel* reply, uint32_t flags)

    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);
    
    
    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;
        IPCThreadState::transact函数的参数flags是一个默认值为0的参数,上面没有传相应的实参进来,因此,这里就为0。

        函数首先调用writeTransactionData函数准备好一个struct binder_transaction_data结构体变量,这个是等一下要传输给Binder驱动程序的。struct binder_transaction_data的定义我们在浅谈Service Manager成为Android进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder守护进程之路一文中有详细描述,读者不妨回过去读一下。这里为了方便描述,将struct binder_transaction_data的定义再次列出来:

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 */

         writeTransactionData函数的实现如下:

status_t IPCThreadState::writeTransactionData(int32_t cmd, uint32_t binderFlags,
    int32_t handle, uint32_t code, const Parcel& data, status_t* statusBuffer)

    binder_transaction_data tr;

    tr.target.handle = handle;
    tr.code = code;
    tr.flags = binderFlags;
    
    const status_t err = data.errorCheck();
    if (err == NO_ERROR) 
        tr.data_size = data.ipcDataSize();
        tr.data.ptr.buffer = data.ipcData();
        tr.offsets_size = data.ipcObjectsCount()*sizeof(size_t);
        tr.data.ptr.offsets = data.ipcObjects();
     else if (statusBuffer) 
        tr.flags |= TF_STATUS_CODE;
        *statusBuffer = err;
        tr.data_size = sizeof(status_t);
        tr.data.ptr.buffer = statusBuffer;
        tr.offsets_size = 0;
        tr.data.ptr.offsets = NULL;
     else 
        return (mLastError = err);
    
    
    mOut.writeInt32(cmd);
    mOut.write(&tr, sizeof(tr));
    
    return NO_ERROR;

        注意,这里的cmd为BC_TRANSACTION。 这个函数很简单,在这个场景下,就是执行下面语句来初始化本地变量tr:

tr.data_size = data.ipcDataSize();
tr.data.ptr.buffer = data.ipcData();
tr.offsets_size = data.ipcObjectsCount()*sizeof(size_t);
tr.data.ptr.offsets = data.ipcObjects();
       回忆一下上面的内容,写入到tr.data.ptr.buffer的内容相当于下面的内容:

writeInt32(IPCThreadState::self()->getStrictModePolicy() |
               STRICT_MODE_PENALTY_GATHER);
writeString16("android.os.IServiceManager");
writeString16("media.player");
writeStrongBinder(new MediaPlayerService());
       其中包含了一个Binder实体MediaPlayerService,因此需要设置tr.offsets_size就为1,tr.data.ptr.offsets就指向了这个MediaPlayerService的地址在tr.data.ptr.buffer中的偏移量。最后,将tr的内容保存在IPCThreadState的成员变量mOut中。
       回到IPCThreadState::transact函数中,接下去看,(flags & TF_ONE_WAY) == 0为true,并且reply不为空,所以最终进入到waitForResponse(reply)这条路径来。我们看一下waitForResponse函数的实现:

status_t IPCThreadState::waitForResponse(Parcel *reply, status_t *acquireResult)

    int32_t cmd;
    int32_t err;

    while (1) 
        if ((err=talkWithDriver()) < NO_ERROR) break;
        err = mIn.errorCheck();
        if (err < NO_ERROR) break;
        if (mIn.dataAvail() == 0) continue;
        
        cmd = mIn.readInt32();
        
        IF_LOG_COMMANDS() 
            alog << "Processing waitForResponse Command: "
                << getReturnString(cmd) << endl;
        

        switch (cmd) 
        case BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE:
            if (!reply && !acquireResult) goto finish;
            break;
        
        case BR_DEAD_REPLY:
            err = DEAD_OBJECT;
            goto finish;

        case BR_FAILED_REPLY:
            err = FAILED_TRANSACTION;
            goto finish;
        
        case BR_ACQUIRE_RESULT:
            
                LOG_ASSERT(acquireResult != NULL, "Unexpected brACQUIRE_RESULT");
                const int32_t result = mIn.readInt32();
                if (!acquireResult) continue;
                *acquireResult = result ? NO_ERROR : INVALID_OPERATION;
            
            goto finish;
        
        case BR_REPLY:
            
                binder_transaction_data tr;
                err = mIn.read(&tr, sizeof(tr));
                LOG_ASSERT(err == NO_ERROR, "Not enough command data for brREPLY");
                if (err != NO_ERROR) goto finish;

                if (reply) 
                    if ((tr.flags & TF_STATUS_CODE) == 0) 
                        reply->ipcSetDataReference(
                            reinterpret_cast<const uint8_t*>(tr.data.ptr.buffer),
                            tr.data_size,
                            reinterpret_cast<const size_t*>(tr.data.ptr.offsets),
                            tr.offsets_size/sizeof(size_t),
                            freeBuffer, this);
                     else 
                        err = *static_cast<const status_t*>(tr.data.ptr.buffer);
                        freeBuffer(NULL,
                            reinterpret_cast<const uint8_t*>(tr.data.ptr.buffer),
                            tr.data_size,
                            reinterpret_cast<const size_t*>(tr.data.ptr.offsets),
                            tr.offsets_size/sizeof(size_t), this);
                    
                 else 
                    freeBuffer(NULL,
                        reinterpret_cast<const uint8_t*>(tr.data.ptr.buffer),
                        tr.data_size,
                        reinterpret_cast<const size_t*>(tr.data.ptr.offsets),
                        tr.offsets_size/sizeof(size_t), this);
                    continue;
                
            
            goto finish;

        default:
            err = executeCommand(cmd);
            if (err != NO_ERROR) goto finish;
            break;
        
    

finish:
    if (err != NO_ERROR) 
        if (acquireResult) *acquireResult = err;
        if (reply) reply->setError(err);
        mLastError = err;
    
    
    return err;
        这个函数虽然很长,但是主要调用了talkWithDriver函数来与Binder驱动程序进行交互:

status_t IPCThreadState::talkWithDriver(bool doReceive)

    LOG_ASSERT(mProcess->mDriverFD >= 0, "Binder driver is not opened");
    
    binder_write_read bwr;
    
    // Is the read buffer empty?
    const bool needRead = mIn.dataPosition() >= mIn.dataSize();
    
    // We don't want to write anything if we are still reading
    // from data left in the input buffer and the caller
    // has requested to read the next data.
    const size_t outAvail = (!doReceive || needRead) ? mOut.dataSize() : 0;
    
    bwr.write_size = outAvail;
    bwr.write_buffer = (long unsigned int)mOut.data();

    // This is what we'll read.
    if (doReceive && needRead) 
        bwr.read_size = mIn.dataCapacity();
        bwr.read_buffer = (long unsigned int)mIn.data();
     else 
        bwr.read_size = 0;
    
    
    IF_LOG_COMMANDS() 
        TextOutput::Bundle _b(alog);
        if (outAvail != 0) 
            alog << "Sending commands to driver: " << indent;
            const void* cmds = (const void*)bwr.write_buffer;

            alog << dedent;
        
        alog << "Size of receive buffer: " << bwr.read_size
            << ", needRead: " << needRead << ", doReceive: " << doReceive << endl;
    
    
    // Return immediately if there is nothing to do.
    if ((bwr.write_size == 0) && (bwr.read_size == 0)) return NO_ERROR;
    
    bwr.write_consumed = 0;
    bwr.read_consumed = 0;
    status_t err;
    do 
        IF_LOG_COMMANDS() 
            alog << "About to read/write, write size = " << mOut.dataSize() << endl;
        
#if defined(HAVE_ANDROID_OS)
        if (ioctl(mProcess->mDriverFD, BINDER_WRITE_READ, &bwr) >= 0)
            err = NO_ERROR;
        else
            err = -errno;
#else
        err = INVALID_OPERATION;
#endif
        IF_LOG_COMMANDS() 
            alog << "Finished read/write, write size = " << mOut.dataSize() << endl;
        
     while (err == -EINTR);
    
    IF_LOG_COMMANDS() 
        alog << "Our err: " << (void*)err << ", write consumed: "

    if (err >= NO_ERROR) 
        if (bwr.write_consumed > 0) 
            if (bwr.write_consumed < (ssize_t)mOut.dataSize())
                mOut.remove(0, bwr.write_consumed);
            else
                mOut.setDataSize(0);
        
        if (bwr.read_consumed > 0) 
            mIn.setDataSize(bwr.read_consumed);

        return NO_ERROR;
    
    
    return err;
        这里doReceive和needRead均为1,有兴趣的读者可以自已分析一下。因此,这里告诉Binder驱动程序,先执行write操作,再执行read操作,下面我们将会看到。

        最后,通过ioctl(mProcess->mDriverFD, BINDER_WRITE_READ, &bwr)进行到Binder驱动程序的binder_ioctl函数,我们只关注cmd为BINDER_WRITE_READ的逻辑:

static long binder_ioctl(struct file *filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)

	int ret;
	struct binder_proc *proc = filp->private_data;
	struct binder_thread *thread;
	unsigned int size = _IOC_SIZE(cmd);
	void __user *ubuf = (void __user *)arg;

	/*printk(KERN_INFO "binder_ioctl: %d:%d %x %lx\\n", proc->pid, current->pid, cmd, arg);*/

	ret = wait_event_interruptible(binder_user_error_wait, binder_stop_on_user_error < 2);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	mutex_lock(&binder_lock);
	thread = binder_get_thread(proc);
	if (thread == NULL) 
		ret = -ENOMEM;
		goto err;
	

	switch (cmd) 
	case BINDER_WRITE_READ: 
		struct binder_write_read bwr;
		if (size != sizeof(struct binder_write_read)) 
			ret = -EINVAL;
			goto err;
		
		if (copy_from_user(&bwr, ubuf, sizeof(bwr))) 
			ret = -EFAULT;
			goto err;
		
		if (binder_debug_mask & BINDER_DEBUG_READ_WRITE)
			printk(KERN_INFO "binder: %d:%d write %ld at %08lx, read %ld at %08lx\\n",
			proc->pid, thread->pid, bwr.write_size, bwr.write_buffer, bwr.read_size, bwr.read_buffer);
		if (bwr.write_size > 0) 
			ret = binder_thread_write(proc, thread, (void __user *)bwr.write_buffer, bwr.write_size, &bwr.write_consumed);
			if (ret < 0) 
				bwr.read_consumed = 0;
				if (copy_to_user(ubuf, &bwr, sizeof(bwr)))
					ret = -EFAULT;
				goto err;
			
		
		if (bwr.read_size > 0) 
			ret = binder_thread_read(proc, thread, (void __user *)bwr.read_buffer, bwr.read_size, &bwr.read_consumed, filp->f_flags & O_NONBLOCK);
			if (!list_empty(&proc->todo))
				wake_up_interruptible(&proc->wait);
			if (ret < 0) 
				if (copy_to_user(ubuf, &bwr, sizeof(bwr)))
					ret = -EFAULT;
				goto err;
			
		
		if (binder_debug_mask & BINDER_DEBUG_READ_WRITE)
			printk(KERN_INFO "binder: %d:%d wrote %ld of %ld, read return %ld of %ld\\n",
			proc->pid, thread->pid, bwr.write_consumed, bwr.write_size, bwr.read_consumed, bwr.read_size);
		if (copy_to_user(ubuf, &bwr, sizeof(bwr))) 
			ret = -EFAULT;
			goto err;
		
		break;
	
	......
	
	ret = 0;
err:
	......
	return ret;
         函数首先是将用户传进来的参数拷贝到本地变量struct binder_write_read bwr中去。这里bwr.write_size > 0为true,因此,进入到binder_thread_write函数中,我们只关注BC_TRANSACTION部分的逻辑:

binder_thread_write(struct binder_proc *proc, struct binder_thread *thread,
					void __user *buffer, int size, signed long *consumed)

	uint32_t cmd;
	void __user *ptr = buffer + *consumed;
	void __user *end = buffer + size;

	while (ptr < end && thread->return_error == BR_OK) 
		if (get_user(cmd, (uint32_t __user *)ptr))
			return -EFAULT;
		ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
		if (_IOC_NR(cmd) < ARRAY_SIZE(binder_stats.bc)) 
			binder_stats.bc[_IOC_NR(cmd)]++;
			proc->stats.bc[_IOC_NR(cmd)]++;
			thread->stats.bc[_IOC_NR(cmd)]++;
		
		switch (cmd) 
	        .....
		case BC_TRANSACTION:
		case BC_REPLY: 
			struct binder_transaction_data tr;

			if (copy_from_user(&tr, ptr, sizeof(tr)))
				return -EFAULT;
			ptr += sizeof(tr);
			binder_transaction(proc, thread, &tr, cmd == BC_REPLY);
			break;
		
		......
		
		*consumed = ptr - buffer;
	
	return 0;
         首先将用户传进来的transact参数拷贝在本地变量struct binder_transaction_data tr中去,接着调用binder_transaction函数进一步处理,这里我们忽略掉无关代码:

static void
binder_transaction(struct binder_proc *proc, struct binder_thread *thread,
struct binder_transaction_data *tr, int reply)

	if (target_node)
		binder_inc_node(target_node, 1, 0, NULL);

	offp = (size_t *)(t->buffer->data + ALIGN(tr->data_size, sizeof(void *)));

	if (copy_from_user(t->buffer->data, tr->data.ptr.buffer, tr->data_size)) 
		......
		return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
		goto err_copy_data_failed;
	
	if (copy_from_user(offp, tr->data.ptr.offsets, tr->offsets_size)) 
		......
		return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
		goto err_copy_data_failed;
	
         注意,这里的事务t是要交给target_proc处理的,在这个场景之下,就是Service Manager了。因此,下面的语句:

t->buffer = binder_alloc_buf(target_proc, tr->data_size,
		tr->offsets_size, !reply && (t->flags & TF_ONE_WAY));
         就是在Service Manager的进程空间中分配一块内存来保存用户传进入的参数了:

	if (copy_from_user(t->buffer->data, tr->data.ptr.buffer, tr->data_size)) 
		......
		return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
		goto err_copy_data_failed;
	
	if (copy_from_user(offp, tr->data.ptr.offsets, tr->offsets_size)) 
		......
		return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
		goto err_copy_data_failed;
	
         由于现在target_node要被使用了,增加它的引用计数:

if (target_node)
		binder_inc_node(target_node, 1, 0, NULL);
        接下去的for循环,就是用来处理传输数据中的Binder对象了。在我们的场景中,有一个类型为BINDER_TYPE_BINDER的Binder实体MediaPlayerService:

    switch (fp->type) 
    case BINDER_TYPE_BINDER:
    case BINDER_TYPE_WEAK_BINDER: 
	struct binder_ref *ref;
	struct binder_node *node = binder_get_node(proc, fp->binder);
	if (node == NULL) 
		node = binder_new_node(proc, fp->binder, fp->cookie);
		if (node == NULL) 
			return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
			goto err_binder_new_node_failed;
		
		node->min_priority = fp->flags & FLAT_BINDER_FLAG_PRIORITY_MASK;
		node->accept_fds = !!(fp->flags & FLAT_BINDER_FLAG_ACCEPTS_FDS);
	
	if (fp->cookie != node->cookie) 
		......
		goto err_binder_get_ref_for_node_failed;
	
	ref = binder_get_ref_for_node(target_proc, node);
	if (ref == NULL) 
		return_error = BR_FAILED_REPLY;
		goto err_binder_get_ref_for_node_failed;
	
	if (fp->type == BINDER_TYPE_BINDER)
		fp->type = BINDER_TYPE_HANDLE;
	else
		fp->type = BINDER_TYPE_WEAK_HANDLE;
	fp->handle = ref->desc;
	binder_inc_ref(ref, fp->type == BINDER_TYPE_HANDLE, &thread->todo);
	......
							  
	 break;
        由于是第一次在Binder驱动程序中传输这个MediaPlayerService,调用binder_get_node函数查询这个Binder实体时,会返回空,于是binder_new_node在proc中新建一个,下次就可以直接使用了。

        现在,由于要把这个Binder实体MediaPlayerService交给target_proc,也就是Service Manager来管理,也就是说Service Manager要引用这个MediaPlayerService了,于是通过binder_get_ref_for_node为MediaPlayerService创建一个引用,并且通过binder_inc_ref来增加这个引用计数,防止这个引用还在使用过程当中就被销毁。注意,到了这里的时候,t->buffer中的flat_binder_obj的type已经改为BINDER_TYPE_HANDLE,handle已经改为ref->desc,跟原来不一样了,因为这个flat_binder_obj是最终是要传给Service Manager的,而Service Manager只能够通过句柄值来引用这个Binder实体。

        最后,把待处理事务加入到target_list列表中去:

list_add_tail(&t->work.entry, target_list);
        并且把待完成工作项加入到本线程的todo等待执行列表中去:

list_add_tail(&tcomplete->entry, &thread->todo);
        现在目标进程有事情可做了,于是唤醒它:

if (target_wait)
	wake_up_interruptible(target_wait);
       这里就是要唤醒Service Manager进程了。回忆一下前面 浅谈Service Manager成为Android进程间通信(IPC)机制Binder守护进程之路这篇文章,此时, Service Manager正在binder_thread_read函数中调用wait_event_interruptible进入休眠状态。

       这里我们先忽略一下Service Manager被唤醒之后的场景,继续MedaPlayerService的启动过程,然后再回来。

       回到binder_ioctl函数,bwr.read_size > 0为true,于是进入binder_thread_read函数:

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) 
		if (put_user(BR_NOOP, (uint32_t __user *)ptr))
			return -EFAULT;
		ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
	

retry:
	wait_for_proc_work = thread->transaction_stack == NULL && list_empty(&thread->todo);
	
	.......

	if (wait_for_proc_work) 
		.......
	 else 
		if (non_block) 
			if (!binder_has_thread_work(thread))
				ret = -EAGAIN;
		 else
			ret = wait_event_interruptible(thread->wait, binder_has_thread_work(thread));
	
	
	......

	while (1) 
		uint32_t cmd;
		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)
			w = list_first_entry(&proc->todo, struct binder_work, entry);
		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_COMPLETE: 
			cmd = BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE;
			if (put_user(cmd, (uint32_t __user *)ptr))
				return -EFAULT;
			ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);

			binder_stat_br(proc, thread, cmd);
			if (binder_debug_mask & BINDER_DEBUG_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE)
				printk(KERN_INFO "binder: %d:%d BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE\\n",
				proc->pid, thread->pid);

			list_del(&w->entry);
			kfree(w);
			binder_stats.obj_deleted[BINDER_STAT_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE]++;
											    break;
		......
		

		if (!t)
			continue;

		......
	

done:
	......
	return 0;

        这里,thread->transaction_stack和thread->todo均不为空,于是wait_for_proc_work为false,由于binder_has_thread_work的时候,返回true,这里因为thread->todo不为空,因此,线程虽然调用了wait_event_interruptible,但是不会睡眠,于是继续往下执行。

        由于thread->todo不为空,执行下列语句:

if (!list_empty(&thread->todo))
     w = list_first_entry(&thread->todo, struct binder_work, entry);
        w->type为BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE,这是在上面的binder_transaction函数设置的,于是执行:

    switch (w->type) 
    ......
    case BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE: 
	cmd = BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE;
	if (put_user(cmd, (uint32_t __user *)ptr))
		return -EFAULT;
	ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);

        ......
	list_del(&w->entry);
	kfree(w);
			
	 break;
	......
    
        这里就将w从thread->todo删除了。由于这里t为空,重新执行while循环,这时由于已经没有事情可做了,最后就返回到binder_ioctl函数中。注间,这里一共往用户传进来的缓冲区buffer写入了两个整数,分别是BR_NOOP和BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE。

        binder_ioctl函数返回到用户空间之前,把数据消耗情况拷贝回用户空间中:

if (copy_to_user(ubuf, &bwr, sizeof(bwr))) 
	ret = -EFAULT;
	goto err;
        最后返回到IPCThreadState::talkWithDriver函数中,执行下面语句:

    if (err >= NO_ERROR) 
        if (bwr.write_consumed > 0) 
            if (bwr.write_consumed < (ssize_t)mOut.dataSize())
                mOut.remove(0, bwr.write_consumed);
            else
                mOut.setDataSize(0);
        
        if (bwr.read_consumed > 0) 
            mIn.setDataSize(bwr.read_consumed);
            mIn.setDataPosition(0);
...... return NO_ERROR;
        首先是把mOut的数据清空:

    mOut.setDataSize(0);
        然后设置已经读取的内容的大小:

    mIn.setDataSize(bwr.read_consumed);
    mIn.setDataPosition(0);
        然后返回到IPCThreadState::waitForResponse函数中。在IPCThreadState::waitForResponse函数,先是从mIn读出一个整数,这个便是BR_NOOP了,这是一个空操作,什么也不做。然后继续进入IPCThreadState::talkWithDriver函数中。
        这时候,下面语句执行后:

const bool needRead = mIn.dataPosition() >= mIn.dataSize();
        needRead为false,因为在mIn中,尚有一个整数BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE未读出。

       这时候,下面语句执行后:

const size_t outAvail = (!doReceive || needRead) ? mOut.dataSize() : 0;
        outAvail等于0。因此,最后bwr.write_size和bwr.read_size均为0,IPCThreadState::talkWithDriver函数什么也不做,直接返回到IPCThreadState::waitForResponse函数中。在IPCThreadState::waitForResponse函数,又继续从mIn读出一个整数,这个便是BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE:

switch (cmd) 
case BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE:
       if (!reply && !acquireResult) goto finish;
       break;
......
        reply不为NULL,因此,IPCThreadState::waitForResponse的循环没有结束,继续执行,又进入到IPCThreadState::talkWithDrive中。

        这次,needRead就为true了,而outAvail仍为0,所以bwr.read_size不为0,bwr.write_size为0。于是通过:

ioctl(mProcess->mDriverFD, BINDER_WRITE_READ, &bwr)
        进入到Binder驱动程序中的binder_ioctl函数中。由于bwr.write_size为0,bwr.read_size不为0,这次直接就进入到binder_thread_read函数中。这时候,thread->transaction_stack不等于0,但是thread->todo为空,于是线程就通过:

wait_event_interruptible(thread->wait, binder_has_thread_work(thread));
        进入睡眠状态,等待Service Manager来唤醒了。

        现在,我们可以回到Service Manager被唤醒的过程了。我们接着前面浅谈Service Manager成为And
