ServiceManager（一）简介

C/S（Client/Server）架构的应用在安卓中随处可见；

ServiceManager在安卓中承担着管理Server的责任；

Client在向Server发起请求之前需要先定位Server;

举个形象的例子，工作中需要发邮件，发邮件之前得先在邮箱列表中找到收件人，才可以准确地进行交互；

 

Client如何定位的Server?

ServiceManager可类比为"DNS"服务器，该服务器自身的“IP地址为0”；

ServiceManager帮助Client路由到Server；

 

ServiceManager的是如何启动的？

http://androidxref.com/9.0.0_r3/xref/system/core/rootdir/init.rc，init.cpp加载init.rc文件时，系统开始加载servicemanager、hwservicemanager、vndservicemanager服务

320    start servicemanager
321    start hwservicemanager
322    start vndservicemanager

http://androidxref.com/9.0.0_r3/xref/frameworks/native/cmds/servicemanager/servicemanager.rc，该文件中声明了servicemanager服务

#当servicemanager重启后，下面的所有服务都跟着重新启动；
#servicemanager在安卓中的重要性，不言而喻
