一、 AQS是什么
首先我们来普及一下juc是什么:juc其实就是包的缩写(java.util.concurrnt)。
我们可以发现lock包下有三个抽象的类:
AbstractOwnableSynchronizer
AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer
AbstractQueuedSynchronizer
通常地:AbstractQueuedSynchronizer简称为AQS
下图是AQS的结构示意图:
看注释:
/**
* Provides a framework for implementing blocking locks and related
* synchronizers (semaphores, events, etc) that rely on
* first-in-first-out (FIFO) wait queues.
为实现阻塞锁和相关同步器提供一个框架,它是依赖于先进先出的等待队列
* This class is designed to
* be a useful basis for most kinds of synchronizers that rely on a
* single atomic {@code int} value to represent state. Subclasses
* must define the protected methods that change this state, and which
* define what that state means in terms of this object being acquired
* or released. Given these, the other methods in this class carry
* out all queuing and blocking mechanics. Subclasses can maintain
* other state fields, but only the atomically updated {@code int}
* value manipulated using methods {@link #getState}, {@link
* #setState} and {@link #compareAndSetState} is tracked with respect
* to synchronization.
*
依靠单个原子int值来表示状态的,该状态用于表示锁是获取中还是释放。通过给定的方法改变状态的值。
* <p>Subclasses should be defined as non-public internal helper
* classes that are used to implement the synchronization properties
* of their enclosing class. Class
* {@code AbstractQueuedSynchronizer} does not implement any
* synchronization interface. Instead it defines methods such as
* {@link #acquireInterruptibly} that can be invoked as
* appropriate by concrete locks and related synchronizers to
* implement their public methods.
*
子类一般通过内部类来实现需要同步的工作
* <p>This class supports either or both a default <em>exclusive</em>
* mode and a <em>shared</em> mode. When acquired in exclusive mode,
* attempted acquires by other threads cannot succeed. Shared mode
* acquires by multiple threads may (but need not) succeed. This class
* does not "understand" these differences except in the
* mechanical sense that when a shared mode acquire succeeds, the next
* waiting thread (if one exists) must also determine whether it can
* acquire as well. Threads waiting in the different modes share the
* same FIFO queue. Usually, implementation subclasses support only
* one of these modes, but both can come into play for example in a
* {@link ReadWriteLock}. Subclasses that support only exclusive or
* only shared modes need not define the methods supporting the unused mode.
*
这个类提供了两种模式:独占和共享
一般的子类会有一种模式,但ReadWriteLock
两种模式是并存的,子类不需要再定义别的方法来实现这两种模式
* <p>This class defines a nested {@link ConditionObject} class that
* can be used as a {@link Condition} implementation by subclasses
* supporting exclusive mode for which method {@link
* #isHeldExclusively} reports whether synchronization is exclusively
* held with respect to the current thread, method {@link #release}
* invoked with the current {@link #getState} value fully releases
* this object, and {@link #acquire}, given this saved state value,
* eventually restores this object to its previous acquired state. No
* {@code AbstractQueuedSynchronizer} method otherwise creates such a
* condition, so if this constraint cannot be met, do not use it. The
* behavior of {@link ConditionObject} depends of course on the
* semantics of its synchronizer implementation.
*
这个类定义了ConditionObject
内部类,提供方法进行一系列操作
* <p>This class provides inspection, instrumentation, and monitoring
* methods for the internal queue, as well as similar methods for
* condition objects. These can be exported as desired into classes
* using an {@code AbstractQueuedSynchronizer} for their
* synchronization mechanics.
*
为内置的队列提供监视等操作
* <p>Serialization of this class stores only the underlying atomic
* integer maintaining state, so deserialized objects have empty
* thread queues. Typical subclasses requiring serializability will
* define a {@code readObject} method that restores this to a known
* initial state upon deserialization.
*
序列化相关:子类一般需要定义readObject
方法来记住已经初始化的记录,否则反序列化,这些状态会丢失
* <h3>Usage</h3>
*
* <p>To use this class as the basis of a synchronizer, redefine the
* following methods, as applicable, by inspecting and/or modifying
* the synchronization state using {@link #getState}, {@link
* #setState} and/or {@link #compareAndSetState}:
*
* <ul>
* <li> {@link #tryAcquire}
* <li> {@link #tryRelease}
* <li> {@link #tryAcquireShared}
* <li> {@link #tryReleaseShared}
* <li> {@link #isHeldExclusively}
* </ul>
*
* Each of these methods by default throws {@link
* UnsupportedOperationException}. Implementations of these methods
* must be internally thread-safe, and should in general be short and
* not block. Defining these methods is the <em>only</em> supported
* means of using this class. All other methods are declared
* {@code final} because they cannot be independently varied.
*
一般使用都需要重写这些方法,如果需要还要留意state是否需要修改
这些方法都需要线程内部安全,非阻塞的
* <p>You may also find the inherited methods from {@link
* AbstractOwnableSynchronizer} useful to keep track of the thread
* owning an exclusive synchronizer. You are encouraged to use them
* -- this enables monitoring and diagnostic tools to assist users in
* determining which threads hold locks.
*
某些AbstractOwnableSynchronizer
的方法可以实现监听该线程的锁是否被持有
* <p>Even though this class is based on an internal FIFO queue, it
* does not automatically enforce FIFO acquisition policies. The core
* of exclusive synchronization takes the form:
*
* <pre>
* Acquire:
* while (!tryAcquire(arg)) {
* <em>enqueue thread if it is not already queued</em>;
* <em>possibly block current thread</em>;
* }
*
* Release:
* if (tryRelease(arg))
* <em>unblock the first queued thread</em>;
* </pre>
*
* (Shared mode is similar but may involve cascading signals.)
*
* <p id="barging">Because checks in acquire are invoked before
* enqueuing, a newly acquiring thread may <em>barge</em> ahead of
* others that are blocked and queued. However, you can, if desired,
* define {@code tryAcquire} and/or {@code tryAcquireShared} to
* disable barging by internally invoking one or more of the inspection
* methods, thereby providing a <em>fair</em> FIFO acquisition order.
* In particular, most fair synchronizers can define {@code tryAcquire}
* to return {@code false} if {@link #hasQueuedPredecessors} (a method
* specifically designed to be used by fair synchronizers) returns
* {@code true}. Other variations are possible.
*
公平锁相关
* <p>Throughput and scalability are generally highest for the
* default barging (also known as <em>greedy</em>,
* <em>renouncement</em>, and <em>convoy-avoidance</em>) strategy.
* While this is not guaranteed to be fair or starvation-free, earlier
* queued threads are allowed to recontend before later queued
* threads, and each recontention has an unbiased chance to succeed
* against incoming threads. Also, while acquires do not
* "spin" in the usual sense, they may perform multiple
* invocations of {@code tryAcquire} interspersed with other
* computations before blocking. This gives most of the benefits of
* spins when exclusive synchronization is only briefly held, without
* most of the liabilities when it isn't. If so desired, you can
* augment this by preceding calls to acquire methods with
* "fast-path" checks, possibly prechecking {@link #hasContended}
* and/or {@link #hasQueuedThreads} to only do so if the synchronizer
* is likely not to be contended.
*
多种策略
* <p>This class provides an efficient and scalable basis for
* synchronization in part by specializing its range of use to
* synchronizers that can rely on {@code int} state, acquire, and
* release parameters, and an internal FIFO wait queue. When this does
* not suffice, you can build synchronizers from a lower level using
* {@link java.util.concurrent.atomic atomic} classes, your own custom
* {@link java.util.Queue} classes, and {@link LockSupport} blocking
* support.
*
这个类提供了state、获取、释放、内部的队列给我们实现同步。
如果觉得功能不够的话, 可以自己使用atomic
包和Queue
类来自己实现。
通读了一遍,可以总结出以下比较关键的信息:
- AQS其实就是一个可以给我们实现锁的框架
- 内部实现的关键是:先进先出的队列、state状态
- 定义了内部类ConditionObject
- 拥有两种线程模式
- 独占模式
- 共享模式
- 在LOCK包中的相关锁(常用的有ReentrantLock、 ReadWriteLock)都是基于AQS来构建
- 一般我们叫AQS为同步器
二、 简单看看AQS
上面也提到了AQS里边最重要的是状态和队列,我们接下来就看看其源码是怎么样的
2.1 同步状态
使用volatile修饰实现线程可见性:
/**
* The synchronization state.
*/
private volatile int state;
/**
* Returns the current value of synchronization state.
* This operation has memory semantics of a {@code volatile} read.
* @return current state value
*/
protected final int getState() {
return state;
}
/**
* Sets the value of synchronization state.
* This operation has memory semantics of a {@code volatile} write.
* @param newState the new state value
*/
protected final void setState(int newState) {
state = newState;
}
修改state状态值时使用CAS算法来实现:
/**
* Atomically sets synchronization state to the given updated
* value if the current state value equals the expected value.
* This operation has memory semantics of a {@code volatile} read
* and write.
*
* @param expect the expected value
* @param update the new value
* @return {@code true} if successful. False return indicates that the actual
* value was not equal to the expected value.
*/
protected final boolean compareAndSetState(int expect, int update) {
// See below for intrinsics setup to support this
return unsafe.compareAndSwapInt(this, stateOffset, expect, update);
}
原子性方式修改state值,CAS算法实现,乐观锁
2.2 先进先出队列
这个队列被称为:CLH队列(三个名字组成),是一个双向队列
/**
* Wait queue node class.
*
* <p>The wait queue is a variant of a "CLH" (Craig, Landin, and
* Hagersten) lock queue. CLH locks are normally used for
* spinlocks. We instead use them for blocking synchronizers, but
* use the same basic tactic of holding some of the control
* information about a thread in the predecessor of its node. A
* "status" field in each node keeps track of whether a thread
* should block. A node is signalled when its predecessor
* releases. Each node of the queue otherwise serves as a
* specific-notification-style monitor holding a single waiting
* thread. The status field does NOT control whether threads are
* granted locks etc though. A thread may try to acquire if it is
* first in the queue. But being first does not guarantee success;
* it only gives the right to contend. So the currently released
* contender thread may need to rewait.
*
* <p>To enqueue into a CLH lock, you atomically splice it in as new
* tail. To dequeue, you just set the head field.
* <pre>
* +------+ prev +-----+ +-----+
* head | | <---- | | <---- | | tail
* +------+ +-----+ +-----+
* </pre>
可以看出,CLH是自旋锁,state判断线程是否被阻塞,入队在尾,出队在头
查看源码:
static final class Node {
/** Marker to indicate a node is waiting in shared mode */
static final Node SHARED = new Node();
/** Marker to indicate a node is waiting in exclusive mode */
static final Node EXCLUSIVE = null;
/** waitStatus value to indicate thread has cancelled */
static final int CANCELLED = 1;
/** waitStatus value to indicate successor's thread needs unparking */
static final int SIGNAL = -1;
/** waitStatus value to indicate thread is waiting on condition */
static final int CONDITION = -2;
/**
* waitStatus value to indicate the next acquireShared should
* unconditionally propagate
*/
static final int PROPAGATE = -3;
/**
* Status field, taking on only the values:
* SIGNAL: The successor of this node is (or will soon be)
* blocked (via park), so the current node must
* unpark its successor when it releases or
* cancels. To avoid races, acquire methods must
* first indicate they need a signal,
* then retry the atomic acquire, and then,
* on failure, block.
* CANCELLED: This node is cancelled due to timeout or interrupt.
* Nodes never leave this state. In particular,
* a thread with cancelled node never again blocks.
* CONDITION: This node is currently on a condition queue.
* It will not be used as a sync queue node
* until transferred, at which time the status
* will be set to 0. (Use of this value here has
* nothing to do with the other uses of the
* field, but simplifies mechanics.)
* PROPAGATE: A releaseShared should be propagated to other
* nodes. This is set (for head node only) in
* doReleaseShared to ensure propagation
* continues, even if other operations have
* since intervened.
* 0: None of the above
*
* The values are arranged numerically to simplify use.
* Non-negative values mean that a node doesn't need to
* signal. So, most code doesn't need to check for particular
* values, just for sign.
*
* The field is initialized to 0 for normal sync nodes, and
* CONDITION for condition nodes. It is modified using CAS
* (or when possible, unconditional volatile writes).
*/
volatile int waitStatus;
/**
* Link to predecessor node that current node/thread relies on
* for checking waitStatus. Assigned during enqueuing, and nulled
* out (for sake of GC) only upon dequeuing. Also, upon
* cancellation of a predecessor, we short-circuit while
* finding a non-cancelled one, which will always exist
* because the head node is never cancelled: A node becomes
* head only as a result of successful acquire. A
* cancelled thread never succeeds in acquiring, and a thread only
* cancels itself, not any other node.
*/
volatile Node prev;
/**
* Link to the successor node that the current node/thread
* unparks upon release. Assigned during enqueuing, adjusted
* when bypassing cancelled predecessors, and nulled out (for
* sake of GC) when dequeued. The enq operation does not
* assign next field of a predecessor until after attachment,
* so seeing a null next field does not necessarily mean that
* node is at end of queue. However, if a next field appears
* to be null, we can scan prev's from the tail to
* double-check. The next field of cancelled nodes is set to
* point to the node itself instead of null, to make life
* easier for isOnSyncQueue.
*/
volatile Node next;
/**
* The thread that enqueued this node. Initialized on
* construction and nulled out after use.
*/
volatile Thread thread;
/**
* Link to next node waiting on condition, or the special
* value SHARED. Because condition queues are accessed only
* when holding in exclusive mode, we just need a simple
* linked queue to hold nodes while they are waiting on

* re-acquire. And because conditions can only be exclusive,
* we save a field by using special value to indicate shared
* mode.
*/
Node nextWaiter;
/**
* Returns true if node is waiting in shared mode.
*/
final boolean isShared() {
return nextWaiter == SHARED;
}
/**
* Returns previous node, or throws NullPointerException if null.
* Use when predecessor cannot be null. The null check could
* be elided, but is present to help the VM.
*
* @return the predecessor of this node
*/
final Node predecessor() throws NullPointerException {
Node p = prev;
if (p == null)
throw new NullPointerException();
else
return p;
}
Node() { // Used to establish initial head or SHARED marker
}
Node(Thread thread, Node mode) { // Used by addWaiter
this.nextWaiter = mode;
this.thread = thread;
}
Node(Thread thread, int waitStatus) { // Used by Condition
this.waitStatus = waitStatus;
this.thread = thread;
}
}
2.3 acquire方法
获取独占锁的过程就是在acquire定义的,该方法用到了模板设计模式,由子类实现
/**
* Acquires in exclusive mode, ignoring interrupts. Implemented
* by invoking at least once {@link #tryAcquire},
* returning on success. Otherwise the thread is queued, possibly
* repeatedly blocking and unblocking, invoking {@link
* #tryAcquire} until success. This method can be used
* to implement method {@link Lock#lock}.
*
可以用来实现lock方法
* @param arg the acquire argument. This value is conveyed to
* {@link #tryAcquire} but is otherwise uninterpreted and
* can represent anything you like.
*/
public final void acquire(int arg) {
if (!tryAcquire(arg) &&
acquireQueued(addWaiter(Node.EXCLUSIVE), arg))
selfInterrupt();
}
/**
* Creates and enqueues node for current thread and given mode.
*
* @param mode Node.EXCLUSIVE for exclusive, Node.SHARED for shared
* @return the new node
*/
private Node addWaiter(Node mode) {
//把当前线程包装为node,设为独占模式
Node node = new Node(Thread.currentThread(), mode);
// Try the fast path of enq; backup to full enq on failure
Node pred = tail;
// 如果tail不为空,把node插入末尾
if (pred != null) {
node.prev = pred;
// 此时可能有其他线程插入,所以重新判断tail
if (compareAndSetTail(pred, node)) {
pred.next = node;
return node;
}
}
enq(node);
return node;
}
/**
* Inserts node into queue, initializing if necessary. See picture above.
* @param node the node to insert
* @return node's predecessor
*/
private Node enq(final Node node) {
for (;;) {
Node t = tail;
// 此时可能有其他线程插入,所以重新判断tail是否为空
if (t == null) { // Must initialize
if (compareAndSetHead(new Node()))
tail = head;
} else {
node.prev = t;
if (compareAndSetTail(t, node)) {
t.next = node;
return t;
}
}
}
}
/**
* Acquires in exclusive uninterruptible mode for thread already in
* queue. Used by condition wait methods as well as acquire.
*
* @param node the node
* @param arg the acquire argument
* @return {@code true} if interrupted while waiting
*/
final boolean acquireQueued(final Node node, int arg) {
boolean failed = true;
try {
boolean interrupted = false;
for (;;) {
// 如果它的前继节点为头结点,尝试获取锁,获取成功则返回
final Node p = node.predecessor();
if (p == head && tryAcquire(arg)) {
setHead(node);
p.next = null; // help GC
failed = false;
return interrupted;
}
if (shouldParkAfterFailedAcquire(p, node) &&
parkAndCheckInterrupt())
interrupted = true;
}
} finally {
if (failed)
cancelAcquire(node);
}
}
/**
* Checks and updates status for a node that failed to acquire.
* Returns true if thread should block. This is the main signal
* control in all acquire loops. Requires that pred == node.prev.
*
* @param pred node's predecessor holding status
* @param node the node
* @return {@code true} if thread should block
*/
private static boolean shouldParkAfterFailedAcquire(Node pred, Node node) {
int ws = pred.waitStatus;
1. SIGNAL,则返回true表示应该挂起当前线程,挂起该线程,并等待被唤醒,被唤醒后进行中断检测,如果发现当前线 程被中断,那么抛出InterruptedException并退出循环.
2. >0,将前驱节点踢出队列,返回false
3. <0,也是返回false,不过先将前驱节点waitStatus设置为SIGNAL,使得下次判断时,将当前节点挂起.
if (ws == Node.SIGNAL)
/*
* This node has already set status asking a release
* to signal it, so it can safely park.
*/
return true;
if (ws > 0) {
/*
* Predecessor was cancelled. Skip over predecessors and
* indicate retry.
*/
do {
node.prev = pred = pred.prev;
} while (pred.waitStatus > 0);
pred.next = node;
} else {
/*
* waitStatus must be 0 or PROPAGATE. Indicate that we
* need a signal, but don't park yet. Caller will need to
* retry to make sure it cannot acquire before parking.
*/
compareAndSetWaitStatus(pred, ws, Node.SIGNAL);
}
return false;
}
AQS的模板方法acquire通过调用子类自定义实现的tryAcquire获取同步状态失败后->将线程构造成Node节点(addWaiter)->将Node节点添加到同步队列对尾(addWaiter)->节点以自旋的方法获取同步状态(acquirQueued)。在节点自旋获取同步状态时,只有其前驱节点是头节点的时候才会尝试获取同步状态,如果该节点的前驱不是头节点或者该节点的前驱节点是头节点单获取同步状态失败,则判断当前线程需要阻塞,如果需要阻塞则需要被唤醒过后才返回。
2.4 release方法
释放独占锁的过程就是在release定义的,该方法也用到了模板设计模式,由子类实现
/**
* Releases in exclusive mode. Implemented by unblocking one or
* more threads if {@link #tryRelease} returns true.
* This method can be used to implement method {@link Lock#unlock}.
*
* @param arg the release argument. This value is conveyed to
* {@link #tryRelease} but is otherwise uninterpreted and
* can represent anything you like.
* @return the value returned from {@link #tryRelease}
*/
public final boolean release(int arg) {
if (tryRelease(arg)) {
Node h = head;
if (h != null && h.waitStatus != 0)
unparkSuccessor(h);
return true;
}
return false;
}
如果node的后继节点不为空且不是作废状态,则唤醒这个后继节点,否则从末尾开始寻找合适的节点,如果找到,则唤醒
/**
* Wakes up node's successor, if one exists.
*
* @param node the node
*/
private void unparkSuccessor(Node node) {
/*
* If status is negative (i.e., possibly needing signal) try
* to clear in anticipation of signalling. It is OK if this
* fails or if status is changed by waiting thread.
*/
int ws = node.waitStatus;
if (ws < 0)
compareAndSetWaitStatus(node, ws, 0);
/*
* Thread to unpark is held in successor, which is normally
* just the next node. But if cancelled or apparently null,
* traverse backwards from tail to find the actual
* non-cancelled successor.
*/
Node s = node.next;
if (s == null || s.waitStatus > 0) {
s = null;
for (Node t = tail; t != null && t != node; t = t.prev)
if (t.waitStatus <= 0)
s = t;
}
if (s != null)
LockSupport.unpark(s.thread);
}
首先调用子类的tryRelease()方法释放锁,然后唤醒后继节点,在唤醒的过程中,需要判断后继节点是否满足情况,如果后继节点不为且不是作废状态,则唤醒这个后继节点,否则从tail节点向前寻找合适的节点,如果找到,则唤醒.
三、 总结
juc包中很多可阻塞的类都是基于AQS构建的
AQS可以说是一个给予实现同步锁、同步器的一个框架,很多实现类都在它的的基础上构建的
在AQS中实现了对等待队列的默认实现,子类只要重写部分的代码即可实现(大量用到了模板代码)
