surfaceflinger软件刷新事件的处理流程

1.surfaceFlinger.init

void SurfaceFlinger::init() {
   
    ALOGI(  "SurfaceFlinger's main thread ready to run. "
            "Initializing graphics H/W...");

    ALOGI("Phase offest NS: %" PRId64 "", vsyncPhaseOffsetNs);

    {
    // Autolock scope
        Mutex::Autolock _l(mStateLock);

        // initialize EGL for the default display
        mEGLDisplay = eglGetDisplay(EGL_DEFAULT_DISPLAY);
        eglInitialize(mEGLDisplay, NULL, NULL);

        // start the EventThread
        sp<VSyncSource> vsyncSrc = new DispSyncSource(&mPrimaryDispSync,
                vsyncPhaseOffsetNs, true, "app");
        mEventThread = new EventThread(vsyncSrc, *this, false);
        sp<VSyncSource> sfVsyncSrc = new DispSyncSource(&mPrimaryDispSync,
                sfVsyncPhaseOffsetNs, true, "sf");
        mSFEventThread = new EventThread(sfVsyncSrc, *this, true);
        mEventQueue.setEventThread(mSFEventThread);

在初始化的时候创建了二个EventThread，一个面向上层APP的，一个主要是自己的刷新机制。这里我们主要来看mSFEventThread这个刷新机制

2.setEventThread

void MessageQueue::setEventThread(const sp<EventThread>& eventThread)
{
   
    mEventThread = eventThread;
    mEvents = eventThread->createEventConnection();
    mEvents->stealReceiveChannel(&mEventTube);
    mLooper->addFd(mEventTube.getFd(), 0, Looper::EVENT_INPUT,
            MessageQueue::cb_eventReceiver, this);
}

首先这里涉及到EventThread强指针引用，触发EventThread的onFirstRef接口调用。这个接口调用主要作用就是接起一个线程来派发刷新消息

3.EventThread::threadLoop

bool EventThread::threadLoop() {
   
    DisplayEventReceiver::Event event;
    Vector< sp<EventThread::Connection> > signalConnections;
    signalConnections = waitForEvent(&event);

    // dispatch events to listeners...
    const size_t count = signalConnections.size();
    for (size_t i=0 ; i<count ; i++) {
   
        const sp<Connection>& conn(signalConnections[i]);
        // now see if we still need to report this event
        status_t err = conn->postEvent(event);
        if (err == -EAGAIN || err == -EWOULDBLOCK) {
   
            // The destination doesn't accept events anymore, it's probably
            // full. For now, we just drop the events on the floor.
            // FIXME: Note that some events cannot be dropped and would have
            // to be re-sent later.
            // Right-now we don't have the ability to do this.
            ALOGW("EventThread: dropping event (%08x) for connection %p",
                    event.header.type, conn.get());
