第二次启动android app的过程分析

网上关于在Launcher上第一次启动app的过程分析已经很多了，今天吃饭的时候在思考一个问题：我在Launcher上打开淘宝，切换到购物车，按Home键回到Launcher，再次点开淘宝的时候仍然是购物车页面。按说Launcher每次点开app都是启动同一个activity（ACTION_MAIN , CATEGORY_LAUNCHER），那么这步转换是在哪里完成的呢？

回来翻了翻代码，找到了答案：（有点长，后面会一步一步分析）

      IVoiceInteractionSession voiceSession, IVoiceInteractor voiceInteractor, int startFlags,

            (launchFlags & Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK) == 0)
        if (inTask == null && r.resultTo == null) {
            ActivityRecord intentActivity = !launchSingleInstance ?
