Binder学习笔记—— 服务端如何响应Test()请求 ？

Posted 2023-02-23 晋文

从服务端代码出发，TestServer.cpp

int main() 
    sp < ProcessState > proc(ProcessState::self());
    sp < IServiceManager > sm = defaultServiceManager();
    sm->addService(String16("service.testservice"), new BnTestService());
    ProcessState::self()->startThreadPool();
    IPCThreadState::self()->joinThreadPool();
    return 0;

前三行代码在之前的Binder学习笔记系列中都分析过了，继续往下看。

ProcessState::self()->startThreadPool()做了什么？

frameworks/native/libs/binder/ProcessState.cpp:132

void ProcessState::startThreadPool()

    AutoMutex _l(mLock);
    if (!mThreadPoolStarted) 
        mThreadPoolStarted = true;
        spawnPooledThread(true);
    

继续spawnPooledThread(true)，frameworks/native/libs/binder/ProcessState.cpp:286

void ProcessState::spawnPooledThread(bool isMain)

    if (mThreadPoolStarted) 
        String8 name = makeBinderThreadName();
        ALOGV("Spawning new pooled thread, name=%s\\n", name.string());
        sp<Thread> t = new PoolThread(isMain);
        t->run(name.string());
    

PoolThread是一个线程类，暂时先不去深究，它的run(…)函数最终会落实到线程函数threadLoop()的调用上，这个函数很简单,frameworks/native/libs/binder/ProcessState.cpp:61

class PoolThread : public Thread

......
protected:
    virtual bool threadLoop()
    
        IPCThreadState::self()->joinThreadPool(mIsMain);
        return false;
    
    ......
;

它调到了IPCThreadState::joinThreadPool(true);这个函数在main函数中接下来也被调到了，那我们就并案调查吧。

IPCThreadState::self()->joinThreadPool(…)做了什么？

frameworks/native/libs/binder/IPCThreadState.cpp:477

void IPCThreadState::joinThreadPool(bool isMain)

    ......
    mOut.writeInt32(isMain ? BC_ENTER_LOOPER : BC_REGISTER_LOOPER);
    ......

    status_t result;
    do 
        processPendingDerefs();             // 处理上次循环尚未完成的内容
        // now get the next command to be processed, waiting if necessary
        result = getAndExecuteCommand();    // 重点看这里
        ......
        if(result == TIMED_OUT && !isMain) 
            break;
        
     while (result != -ECONNREFUSED && result != -EBADF);

    ......

    mOut.writeInt32(BC_EXIT_LOOPER);
    talkWithDriver(false);

frameworks/native/libs/binder/IPCThreadState.cpp:414

status_t IPCThreadState::getAndExecuteCommand()

    status_t result;
    int32_t cmd;
    result = talkWithDriver();  // 这里完成一次对binder的IO
    ......
        size_t IN = mIn.dataAvail();
        if (IN < sizeof(int32_t)) return result;
        cmd = mIn.readInt32();
        ......
        result = executeCommand(cmd);
    ......
    return result;

也是一个IO-解析的模式，重点来看解析executeCommand(…)，frameworks/native/libs/binder/IPCThreadState.cpp:947

status_t IPCThreadState::executeCommand(int32_t cmd)

    BBinder* obj;
    RefBase::weakref_type* refs;
    status_t result = NO_ERROR;

    switch ((uint32_t)cmd) 
    ......

    case BR_TRANSACTION:
        
            binder_transaction_data tr;
            result = mIn.read(&tr, sizeof(tr));
            ......

            Parcel buffer;
            buffer.ipcSetDataReference(
                reinterpret_cast<const uint8_t*>(tr.data.ptr.buffer),
                tr.data_size,
                reinterpret_cast<const binder_size_t*>(tr.data.ptr.offsets),
                tr.offsets_size/sizeof(binder_size_t), freeBuffer, this);

            const pid_t origPid = mCallingPid;
            const uid_t origUid = mCallingUid;
            const int32_t origStrictModePolicy = mStrictModePolicy;
            const int32_t origTransactionBinderFlags = mLastTransactionBinderFlags;

            mCallingPid = tr.sender_pid;
            mCallingUid = tr.sender_euid;
            mLastTransactionBinderFlags = tr.flags;

            ......

            Parcel reply;
            status_t error;
            ......
            if (tr.target.ptr) 
                sp<BBinder> b((BBinder*)tr.cookie);  // 注意：这里是重点！！！
                error = b->transact(tr.code, buffer, &reply, tr.flags);

             else 
                error = the_context_object->transact(tr.code, buffer, &reply, tr.flags);
            


            if ((tr.flags & TF_ONE_WAY) == 0) 
                ......
                sendReply(reply, 0);
             
            ......

            mCallingPid = origPid;
            mCallingUid = origUid;
            mStrictModePolicy = origStrictModePolicy;
            mLastTransactionBinderFlags = origTransactionBinderFlags;

            ......
        
        break;

    ......
    

    ......

    return result;

tr.cookie是什么玩意？我们回到《客户端如何组织Test()请求 ？》末尾那张图上，此时服务端收到的tr就应该是客户端请求test时组织的数据，可是那张图里cookie明明是0呀？怎么可能用空指针来初始化sp呢？而且后面还有对这个指针的调用！

客户端发出的test请求中tr.cookie是什么？

为了确认那张图中cookie的正确性，我用gdb调试到源码内部，这是能得到最确凿结论的方法。
* 部署环境
编译《Binder学习笔记（一）》中的代码。我将该代码放到了android源码的external/testservice下，执行

$ mmm external/testservice
$ emulator&    # 启动模拟器，把编译出的可执行文件上传到模拟器并修改可执行权限
$ adb shell mkdir /data/local/tmp/testservice
$ adb push prebuilts/misc/android-arm/gdbserver/ /data/local/tmp/testservice
$ adb push out/debug/target/product/generic/obj/EXECUTABLES/TestServer_intermediates/LINKED/TestServer /data/local/tmp/testservice
$ adb push out/debug/target/product/generic/obj/EXECUTABLES/TestClient_intermediates/LINKED/TestClient /data/local/tmp/testservice
$ adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/testservice/*

• 调试
  需要开三个终端：
  
  1. Target1 在模拟器上启动server

$ adb shell /data/local/tmp/testservice/TestServer

1. Target2 在模拟器上通过gdbserver启动客户端

$ adb shell gdbserver :1234 /data/local/tmp/testservice/TestClient
Process /data/local/tmp/testservice/TestClient created; pid = 1254
Listening on port 1234
Remote debugging from host 127.0.0.1

1. Host1 在宿主端启动gdb

$ ./prebuilts/gcc/darwin-x86/arm/arm-linux-androideabi-4.9/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gdb out/debug/target/product/generic/obj/EXECUTABLES/TestClient_intermediates/LINKED/TestClient

(gdb) p tr
$2 = target = handle = 1, ptr = 1, cookie = 0, code = 1, flags = 16, sender_pid = 0, sender_euid = 0, data_size = 72, offsets_size = 0, data = ptr = buffer = 3066360032, offsets = 0, buf = "\\340\\360Ķ\\000\\000\\000"
(gdb)

非常确认，客户端发出的数据包中tr.cookie就是0！

那就奇了怪了，客户端发出的是0，为什么到了服务端还要用它？

服务端接收到的test请求中tr.cookie是什么？

继续用gdb调试服务端，一探究竟。调试服务端也需要三个终端：
1. Target1 在模拟器上通过gdbserver启动server

$ adb shell gdbserver :1234  /data/local/tmp/testservice/TestServer
Process /data/local/tmp/testservice/TestServer created; pid = 1273
Listening on port 1234

1. Host1 在宿主机调试server

$ ./prebuilts/gcc/darwin-x86/arm/arm-linux-androideabi-4.9/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gdb out/debug/target/product/generic/obj/EXECUTABLES/TestServer_intermediates/LINKED/TestServer
......
(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x19e8: file external/testservice/TestServer.cpp, line 30.
(gdb) c

(gdb) b IPCThreadState.cpp:1087
Breakpoint 2 at 0xb6eeec52: file frameworks/native/libs/binder/IPCThreadState.cpp, line 1087.
(gdb) c
Continuing.

1. Target2 在模拟器启动Client，触发断点

$ adb shell /data/local/tmp/testservice/TestClient
BpTestService::test()

然后在Host1上就会看到如下结果：

Breakpoint 2, android::IPCThreadState::executeCommand (this=this@entry=0xb6c64000, cmd=cmd@entry=-2144833022) at frameworks/native/libs/binder/IPCThreadState.cpp:1087
1087                    error = b->transact(tr.code, buffer, &reply, tr.flags);
(gdb) bt  # 打印调用堆栈，确认走到了我们想要断点

#3  0xb6f7dabc in main () at external/testservice/TestServer.cpp:35
(gdb) p tr  # cookie非0！！
$1 = target = handle = 3066421360, ptr = 3066421360, cookie = 3066323044, code = 1, flags = 16, sender_pid = 1276, sender_euid = 0, data_size = 72, offsets_size = 0, data = ptr = buffer = 3065258024, offsets = 3065258096, buf = "( \\264\\266p \\264\\266"

见了鬼了，cookie非0！发送端和接收端看到的值不一样！服务端此时收到的这个cookie是什么呢？服务端把cookie直接当作地址转换成了BBinder，能这么搞说明cookie里记录的地址一定是服务端自己地址空间的，接下来又调用b->transact(…)执行具体服务，那这个服务应该就是服务端的BnTestService吧？
BnTestService是在addService时创建，而且还记得嘛，这个地址是被发送给了ServiceManager。参见《binder服务端是如何组织addService数据的？》末尾的图，服务端调用addService向ServiceManager注册自己，并把自己的BnTestService对象指针传给了cookie。在那张图中有两个cookie，左边是向ServiceManager发送的ADD_SERVICE_TRANSACTION命令数据，右边Parcel是该命令包含的注册信息数据。

cookie是否就是当初注册的时候new出来的BnTestService呢？

继续用gdb验证！
* 服务端收到的tr.cookie是否就是注册时呢我出来的BnTestService？
还是调试服务端，很多命令是重复的，如果嫌烦可以写一个gdb脚本。
Target1和Target2与上一小节没有任何差别，来看Host1，先写好gdb脚本，20160515.gdb：

define server_test
    target remote :1234
    b main
    c
    set solib-absolute-prefix out/debug/target/product/generic/symbols/
    b IServiceManager.cpp:161
    b IPCThreadState.cpp:1087
    c
end 

然后执行gdb：

$ ./prebuilts/gcc/darwin-x86/arm/arm-linux-androideabi-4.9/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gdb out/debug/target/product/generic/obj/EXECUTABLES/TestServer_intermediates/LINKED/TestServer
......
(gdb) source ../androidex/external/testservice/20160515.gdb
(gdb) server_test
......
Breakpoint 2, android::BpServiceManager::addService (this=0xb6c0e040, name=..., service=..., allowIsolated=<optimized out>) at frameworks/native/libs/binder/IServiceManager.cpp:161
161         data.writeStrongBinder(service);
(gdb) p service  # 查看addService时BnTestService的地址
$1 = (const android::sp<android::IBinder> &) @0xbeb99b14: m_ptr = 0xb6c06064
(gdb) c
Continuing.

Breakpoint 3, android::IPCThreadState::executeCommand (this=this@entry=0xb6c24000, cmd=cmd@entry=-2144833022) at frameworks/native/libs/binder/IPCThreadState.cpp:1087
1087                    error = b->transact(tr.code, buffer, &reply, tr.flags);
(gdb) p tr  # cookie=3066060900=0xb6c06064，正是BnTestService！
$2 = target = handle = 3066159216, ptr = 3066159216, cookie = 3066060900, code = 1, flags = 16, sender_pid = 1297, sender_euid = 0, data_size = 72, offsets_size = 0, data = ptr = buffer = 3064995880, offsets = 3064995952, buf = "( \\260\\266p \\260\\266"
(gdb)

证实！

服务端接收到test()请求时，tr.cookie就是BnTestService的指针

至于为什么客户端发来时组的数据包中cookie为0，服务端收到时自动变成了BnTestService？我们以后再探究。先把test()的流程看完。

BnTestService继承自BnInterface，后者又继承自ITestService和BBinder。即BBinder是BnTestService基类的基类，故将cookie转换成BBinder*是合法的。
在看接下来的调用b->transact(…)，frameworks/native/libs/binder/Binder.cpp:97

status_t BBinder::transact(
    uint32_t code, const Parcel& data, Parcel* reply, uint32_t flags)
   // code=TEST
    ......
    switch (code) 
        case PING_TRANSACTION:
            reply->writeInt32(pingBinder());
            break;
        default:
            err = onTransact(code, data, reply, flags); // 走到这里
            break;
    
    ......
    return err;

BBinder::onTransact(…)是一个虚函数，b实际指向的是BnTestService，因此该虚函数实际应看BnTestService::onTransact(…)版本：

status_t BnTestService::onTransact(uint_t code, const Parcel& data,
        Parcel* reply, uint32_t flags) 
    switch (code) 
    case TEST: 
        printf("BnTestService::onTransact, code: TEST\\n");
        CHECK_INTERFACE(ITest, data, reply);
        test();
        reply->writeInt32(100);
        return NO_ERROR;
    
        break;
    default:
        break;
    
    return NO_ERROR;

终于到达了test()的实现！服务端的test服务被调用，如果有返回值，将被写入reply，打成包裹发给客户端，打包和发送过程就前面都有，不再重复分析了。

总结

至此，通过静态、动态代码走查，我把Binder的ServiceManager、服务端、客户端的角色基本梳理清晰了：
* 服务端通过addService向ServiceManager注册服务，后者缓存下服务的名称和在服务端的进程内指针，这两个变量就可以唯一确定一个服务。
* 服务端公开了服务接口，为每一个接口定义一个唯一编码，并负责实现这些服务接口。
* 客户端通过getService获取指定名称的服务端handle，该handle在客户端被伪装成指向服务的指针，通过该指针可以调用服务接口。实际上framework把handle和服务接口打成数据包发送给服务端。
* 服务端在接收到打包请求时，解析接口，并执行对应的实现，将结果返回给客户端。

当然，Binder的天空下还剩一小片乌云，就是那个tr.cookie，为什么客户端发送的时候填入的是0，而服务端却接收到了自己的BnTestService指针？现在可以考虑这个问题了。我猜测这是驱动层干的事儿。有没有点平行宇宙的意思？双缝干涉之所以出现了干涉条纹，是因为我们所在的世界和另一个平行宇宙世界的粒子发生了叠加！
接下来就继续穿越到驱动层一探究竟吧。
