前言
在我们开始之前，希望您能最好已经满足以下条件：
1、有一份编译后的Android源码（亲自动手实践才会有更深入的理解）
2、对Binder机制有一定的了解
本文启动流程分析基于Android 5.1的源码。为什么是5.1的源码呢？因为手边编译完的代码只有这个版本…另外，用什么版本的源码并不重要，大体的流程并无本质上的区别，仅仅是实现细节的调整，找一个你熟悉的版本就好。
1、启动时序图
作为一个轻微强迫症的人，整理的时序图，相信大家按图索骥，一定能搞明白整个启动流程：
说明：为了让大家更清楚的理解整个过程，将时序图中划分为三个部分：Launcher进程、System进程、App进程，其中有涉及共用的类以L / A进行区分表示跟哪个进程有关，便于理解。
2、关键类说明
整个启动流程因为会涉及到多次Binder通信，这里先简要说明一下几个类的用途，方便大家理解整个交互流程：
1、ActivityManagerService：AMS是Android中最核心的服务之一，主要负责系统中四大组件的启动、切换、调度及应用进程的管理和调度等工作，其职责与操作系统中的进程管理和调度模块相类似，因此它在Android中非常重要，它本身也是一个Binder的实现类。
2、Instrumentation：顾名思义，它用来监控应用程序和系统的交互。
3、ActivityThread：应用的入口类，系统通过调用main函数，开启消息循环队列。ActivityThread所在线程被称为应用的主线程（UI线程）。
4、ApplicationThread：ApplicationThread提供Binder通讯接口，AMS则通过代理调用此App进程的本地方法。
5、ActivityManagerProxy：AMS服务在当前进程的代理类，负责与AMS通信。
6、ApplicationThreadProxy：ApplicationThread在AMS服务中的代理类，负责与ApplicationThread通信。
3、流程分析
首先交代下整个流程分析的场景：用户点击Launcher上的应用图标到该应用主界面启动展示在用户眼前。
这整个过程涉及到跨进程通信，所以我们将其划分为时序图中所展示三个进程：Launcher进程、System进程、App进程。为了不贴过长的代码又能说清楚进程间交互的流程，这里简述几个重要的交互点。
从时序图上大家也可以看到调用链相当长，对应的代码量也比较大，而且时序图只是分析了这个一个场景下的流程。道阻且长，行则将至！
3.1 Launcher响应用户点击，通知AMS
Launcher做为应用的入口，还是有必要交代一下的，我们来看看Launcher的代码片段，Launcher使用的是packages/apps/Launcher3的的源码。

public class Launcher extends Activity

public void onClick(View v) {
// Make sure that rogue clicks don't get through while allapps is launching, or after the

if (v.getWindowToken() == null) {

Object tag = v.getTag();
if (tag instanceof ShortcutInfo) {

try {
...
int result = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault()
.startActivity(whoThread, who.getBasePackageName(), intent,

token, target != null ? target.mEmbeddedID : null,
requestCode, 0, null, options);
...
} catch (RemoteException e) {
}
return null;
}
...
}
|
这里的ActivityManagerNative.getDefault返回ActivityManagerService的远程接口，即ActivityManagerProxy接口，有人可能会问了为什么会是ActivityManagerProxy，这就涉及到Binder通信了，这里不再展开。通过Binder驱动程序，ActivityManagerProxy与AMS服务通信，则实现了跨进程到System进程。
3.2 AMS响应Launcher进程请求
从上面的流程我们知道，此时AMS应该处理Launcher进程发来的请求，请参看时序图及源码，此时我们来看ActivityStackSupervisor:startActivityUncheckedLocked方法，目测这个方法已经超过600行代码，来看一些关键代码片段：

函数经过intent的标志值设置，通过findTaskLocked函数来查找存不存这样的Task，这里返回的结果是null，即intentActivity为null，因此，需要创建一个新的Task来启动这个Activity。现在处理堆栈顶端的Activity是Launcher，与我们即将要启动的MainActivity不是同一个Activity，创建了一个新的Task里面来启动这个Activity。
经过栈顶检测，则需要将Launcher推入Paused状态，才可以启动新的Activity。后续则调用至ActivityStack:startPausingLocked，我们来看一下这个函数：

final class ActivityStack {
...
final boolean startPausingLocked(boolean userLeaving, boolean uiSleeping, boolean resuming,
boolean dontWait) {
if (mPausingActivity != null) {
...
}
ActivityRecord prev = mResumedActivity;
if (prev == null) {
...
}
...
mResumedActivity = null;
mPausingActivity = prev;
mLastPausedActivity = prev;
mLastNoHistoryActivity = (prev.intent.getFlags() & Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY) != 0
|| (prev.info.flags & ActivityInfo.FLAG_NO_HISTORY) != 0 ? prev : null;
prev.state = ActivityState.PAUSING;
...
if (prev.app != null && prev.app.thread != null) {
try {
...

userLeaving, prev.configChangeFlags, dontWait);
} catch (Exception e) {
...
}
} else {
...
}
...
}
...
}
|
这里的prev.app.thread是一个ApplicationThread对象的远程接口，通过调用这个远程接口的schedulePauseActivity来通知Launcher进入Paused状态。至此，AMS对Launcher的请求已经响应，这是我们发现又通过Binder通信回调至Launcher进程。
3.3 Launcher进程挂起Launcher，再次通知AMS
这个流程相对会简单一些，我们来看ActivityThread:

public final class ActivityThread {
...
private void handlePauseActivity(IBinder token, boolean finished,
boolean userLeaving, int configChanges, boolean dontReport) {
ActivityClientRecord r = mActivities.get(token);
if (r != null) {
...
performPauseActivity(token, finished, r.isPreHoneycomb());
// Make sure any pending writes are now committed.
if (r.isPreHoneycomb()) {
QueuedWork.waitToFinish();
}
// Tell the activity manager we have paused.
if (!dontReport) {
try {
ActivityManagerNative.getDefault().activityPaused(token);
} catch (RemoteException ex) {
}
}
...
}
}
...
}
|
这部分Launcher的ActivityThread处理页面Paused并且再次通过ActivityManagerProxy通知AMS。
3.4 AMS创建新的进程
创建新进程的时候，AMS会保存一个ProcessRecord信息，如果应用程序中的AndroidManifest.xml配置文件中，我们没有指定Application标签的process属性，系统就会默认使用package的名称。每一个应用程序都有自己的uid，因此，这里uid + process的组合就可以为每一个应用程序创建一个ProcessRecord。

public final class ActivityManagerService extends ActivityManagerNative
implements Watchdog.Monitor, BatteryStatsImpl.BatteryCallback {
...
private final void startProcessLocked(ProcessRecord app, String hostingType, String hostingNameStr, String abiOverride, String entryPoint, String[] entryPointArgs) {
...
try {
...
// Start the process. It will either succeed and return a result containing
// the PID of the new process, or else throw a RuntimeException.
boolean isActivityProcess = (entryPoint == null);
if (entryPoint == null) entryPoint = "android.app.ActivityThread";
Process.ProcessStartResult startResult = Process.start(entryPoint,
app.processName, uid, uid, gids, debugFlags, mountExternal,
app.info.targetSdkVersion, app.info.seinfo, requiredAbi, instructionSet,
app.info.dataDir, entryPointArgs);
...
} catch () {
...
}
}
...
}
|
这里主要是调用Process:start接口来创建一个新的进程，新的进程会导入android.app.ActivityThread类，并且执行它的main函数，这就是每一个应用程序都有一个ActivityThread实例来对应的原因。
3.5 应用进程初始化
我们来看Activity的main函数，这里绑定了主线程的Looper，并进入消息循环，大家应该知道，整个Android系统是消息驱动的，这也是为什么主线程默认绑定Looper的原因：

public final class ActivityThread {
...
public static void main(String[] args) {
...
Looper.prepareMainLooper();
ActivityThread thread = new ActivityThread();
thread.attach(false);
...
Looper.loop();
...
}
private void attach(boolean system) {
...
if (!system) {
...
final IActivityManager mgr = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault();
try {
mgr.attachApplication(mAppThread);
} catch (RemoteException ex) {
// Ignore
}
} else {
...
}
...
}
...
}
|
attach函数最终调用了ActivityManagerService的远程接口ActivityManagerProxy的attachApplication函数，传入的参数是mAppThread，这是一个ApplicationThread类型的Binder对象，它的作用是AMS与应用进程进行进程间通信的。
3.6 在AMS中注册应用进程，启动启动栈顶页面
前面我们提到了AMS负责系统中四大组件的启动、切换、调度及应用进程的管理和调度等工作，通过上一个流程我们知道应用进程创建后通过Binder驱动与AMS产生交互，此时AMS则将应用进程创建后的信息进行了一次注册，如果拿Windows系统程序注册到的注册表来理解这个过程，可能会更形象一些。
mMainStack.topRunningActivityLocked(null)从堆栈顶端取出要启动的Activity，并在realStartActivityLockedhan函数中通过ApplicationThreadProxy调回App进程启动页面。

app.thread.scheduleLaunchActivity(new Intent(r.intent), r.appToken,

r.compat, r.launchedFromPackage, r.task.voiceInteractor, app.repProcState,

mService.isNextTransitionForward(), profilerInfo);
...
} catch (RemoteException e) {
...
}
...
}
...
}
|
此时在App进程，我们可以看到，经过一些列的调用链最终调用至MainActivity:onCreate函数，之后会调用至onResume，而后会通知AMS该MainActivity已经处于resume状态。至此，整个启动流程告一段落。
4、总结
通过上述流程，相信大家可以有了一个基本的认知，这里我们忽略细节简化流程，单纯从进程角度来看下图： launch_app_sim
图上所画这里就不在赘述，Activity启动后至Resume状态，此时可交互。以上就是分析Android中应用启动流程的全部内容了，如何有疑问欢迎大家指正交流。
