android kernel 初始化 2

init is the first process after kernel started. The corresponding source code lies in: /system/core/init. It does the following tasks step by step:

1. Initialize log system.

2. Parse /init.rc and /init.%hardware%.rc.

3. Execute early-init action in the two files parsed in step 2.

4. Device specific initialize. For example, make all device node in /dev and download firmwares.

5. Initialize property system. Actually the property system is working as a share memory. Logically it looks like a registry under Windows system.

6. Execute init action in the two files parsed in step 2.

7. Start property service.

8. Execute early-boot and boot actions in the two files parsed in step 2.

9. Execute property action in the two files parsed in step 2.

10. Enter into an infinite loop to wait for device/property set/child process exit events. For example, if an SD card is plugged in, init will receive a device add event, so it can make node for the device. Most of the important process is forked in init, so if any of them crash, init will receive a SIGCHLD then translate it into a child process exit event, so in the loop init can handle the process exit event and execute the commands defined in *.rc(it will run command onrestart).

The .rc file is a script file defined by Android. The default is /system/core/rootdir/init.rc. We can take a loot at the file format (/system/core/init/readme.txt is a good overall introduction of the script). Basically the script file contains actions and services.

Actions

-------

Actions are named sequences of commands. Actions have a trigger which is used to determine when the action should occur. When an event which matches an action's trigger occurs, that action is added to the tail of a to-be-executed queue (unless it is already on the queue).

Each action in the queue is dequeued in sequence and each command in that action is executed in sequence. Init handles other activities (device creation/destruction, property setting, process restarting) "between" the execution of the commands in activities.

Actions take the form of:

on <trigger>

...

Services

--------

Services are programs which init launches and (optionally) restarts when they exit. Services take the form of:

service <name> <pathname> [ <argument> ]*

...

Options

-------

Options are modifiers to services. They affect how and when init runs the service.

Triggers

--------

Triggers are strings which can be used to match certain kinds of events and used to cause an action to occur.

The builtin supported commands are defined in device/system/init/keywords.h. Commands are implementd in device/system/init/bultins.c.

The init program only executes five kinds of triggers: “early-init”, “init”, “early-boot”, “boot”, “property:*”. Take a look at the following line in default init.rc.

class_start default

This line is a command for the action corresponding to “boot” trigger. It will start all services whose class name equals to “default”. By default, if no class option is defined for a service, the service’s class name is “default”. So this line will start all the services in the order of position in the file by default. (BTW, you can start any service using start commands, if you like.) Any service is run as a forked process of init, take a look at the source code of service_start in /system/core/init.c.

So according to the default init.rc, the following services will be executed step by step:

console : star a shell. The source is in device/system/bin/ash.

adbd : start adb daemon. The source is in device/tools/adbd. By default is disabled.

servicemanager : start binder system. The source is in device/commands/binder.

mountd : mount all fs defined in /system/etc/mountd.conf if started, receive commands through local socket to mount any fs. The source is in device/system/bin/mountd.

debuggerd : start debug system. The source is in device/system/bin/debuggerd.

rild : start radio interface layer daemon. The source is in device/commands/rind.

zygote : start Android Java Runtime and start system server. It’s the most important service. The source is in device/servers/app.

media : start AudioFlinger, MediaPlayerService and CameraService. The source is in device/commands/mediaserver.

bootsound : play the default boot sound /system/media/audio/ui/boot.mp3. The source is in device/commands/playmp3.

dbus : start dbus daemon, it’s only used by BlueZ. The source is in device/system/Bluetooth/dbus-daemon.

hcid : redirect hcid’s stdout and stderr to the Android logging system. The source is in device/system/bin/logwrapper. By default is disabled.

hfag : start Bluetooth handsfree audio gateway, it’s only used by BlueZ. The source is in device/system/Bluetooth/bluez-utils. By default is disabled.

hsag : start Bluetooth headset audio gateway, it’s only used by BlueZ. The source is in device/system/Bluetooth/bluez-utils. By default is disabled.

installd : start install package daemon. The source is in device/servers/installd.

flash_recovery : load /system/recovery.img. The source is in device/commands/recovery/mtdutils.

Zygote service does the following tasks step by step:

1. Create JAVA VM.

2. Register android native function for JAVA VM.

3. Call the main function in the JAVA class named com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit whose source is device/java/android/com/android/internal/os/ZygoteInit.java.

a) Load ZygoteInit class

b) Register zygote socket

c) Load preload classes(the default file is device/java/android/preloaded-classes)

d) Load preload resources

e) Call Zygote::forkSystemServer (implemented in device/dalvik/vm/InternalNative.c) to fork a new process. In the new process, call the main function in the JAVA class named com.android.server.SystemServer, whose source is in device/java/services/com/android/server.

i. Load libandroid_servers.so

ii. Call JNI native init1 function implemented in device/libs/android_servers/com_android_server_SystemServers. It only calls system_init implemented in device/servers/system/library/system_init.cpp.

l If running on simulator, instantiate AudioFlinger, MediaPlayerService and CameraService here.

l Call init2 function in JAVA class named com.android.server.SystemServer, whose source is in device/java/services/com/android/server. This function is very critical for Android because it start all of Android JAVA services .

l If not running on simulator, call IPCThreadState::self()->joinThreadPool() to enter into service dispatcher.

init1 初始化一些本地库，包括audio, media , camero ,内部执行过程 /system_init.cpp

extern "C" status_t system_init()
{
LOGI("Entered system_init()");

sp<ProcessState> proc(ProcessState::self());

sp<IServiceManager> sm = defaultServiceManager();
LOGI("ServiceManager: %p/n", sm.get());

sp<GrimReaper> grim = new GrimReaper();
sm->asBinder()->linkToDeath(grim, grim.get(), 0);

char propBuf[PROPERTY_VALUE_MAX];
property_get("system_init.startsurfaceflinger", propBuf, "1");
if (strcmp(propBuf, "1") == 0) {
// Start the SurfaceFlinger
SurfaceFlinger::instantiate();
}

// On the simulator, audioflinger et al don't get started the
// same way as on the device, and we need to start them here
if (!proc->supportsProcesses()) {

// Start the AudioFlinger
AudioFlinger::instantiate();

// Start the media playback service
MediaPlayerService::instantiate();

// Start the camera service
CameraService::instantiate();

// Start the audio policy service
AudioPolicyService::instantiate();
}

// And now start the Android runtime. We have to do this bit
// of nastiness because the Android runtime initialization requires
// some of the core system services to already be started.
// All other servers should just start the Android runtime at
// the beginning of their processes's main(), before calling
// the init function.
LOGI("System server: starting Android runtime./n");

AndroidRuntime* runtime = AndroidRuntime::getRuntime();

LOGI("System server: starting Android services./n");
runtime->callStatic("com/android/server/SystemServer", "init2");

// If running in our own process, just go into the thread
// pool. Otherwise, call the initialization finished
// func to let this process continue its initilization.
if (proc->supportsProcesses()) {
LOGI("System server: entering thread pool./n");
ProcessState::self()->startThreadPool();
IPCThreadState::self()->joinThreadPool();
LOGI("System server: exiting thread pool./n");
}
return NO_ERROR;
}

调用 init2初始化系统服务

runtime->callStatic("com/android/server/SystemServer", "init2");

SystemServer::init2 will start a new thread to start all JAVA services as follows:

Core Services:

1. Starting Power Manager

2. Creating Activity Manager

3. Starting Telephony Registry

4. Starting Package Manager

5. Set Activity Manager Service as System Process

6. Starting Context Manager

7. Starting System Context Providers

8. Starting Battery Service

9. Starting Alarm Manager

10. Starting Sensor Service

11. Starting Window Manager

12. Starting Bluetooth Service

13. Starting Mount Service

Other services

1. Starting Status Bar Service

2. Starting Hardware Service

3. Starting NetStat Service

4. Starting Connectivity Service

5. Starting Notification Manager

6. Starting DeviceStorageMonitor Service

7. Starting Location Manager

8. Starting Search Service

9. Starting Clipboard Service

10. Starting Checkin Service

11. Starting Wallpaper Service

12. Starting Audio Service

13. Starting HeadsetObserver

14. Starting AdbSettingsObserver

Finally SystemServer::init2 will call ActivityManagerService.systemReady to launch the first activity by senting Intent.CATEGORY_HOME intent .

There is another way to start system server, which is through a program named system_server whose source is device/servers/system/system_main.cpp. It also calls system_init to start system services. So there is a question: why does Android have two methods to start system services? My guess is that directly start system_server may have synchronous problem with zygote because system_server will call JNI to start SystemServer::init2, while at that time zygote may not start JAVA VM yet. So Android uses another method. After zynote is initialized, fork a new process to start system services.
