MessageQueue Handler Looper

 

从Handler.sendMessage() 为入口 了解下具体工作原理和注意事项(基于Android  8.1.0)

• 发送无延时的消息

  public final boolean sendMessage(Message msg)
    {
        return sendMessageDelayed(msg, 0);
    }

• SystemClock.uptimeMills() 是获取开机启动到现在的时间 

   public final boolean sendMessageDelayed(Message msg, long delayMillis)
    {
        if (delayMillis < 0) {
            delayMillis = 0;
        }
        return sendMessageAtTime(msg, SystemClock.uptimeMillis() + delayMillis);
    }

•  获取MQ MQ是在Looper里生成。

    public boolean sendMessageAtTime(Message msg, long uptimeMillis) {
        MessageQueue queue = mQueue;
        if (queue == null) {
            RuntimeException e = new RuntimeException(
                    this + " sendMessageAtTime() called with no mQueue");
            Log.w("Looper", e.getMessage(), e);
            return false;
        }
        return enqueueMessage(queue, msg, uptimeMillis);
    }

•  设置消息的target 是否异步 我们常用的消息都是同步的 异步消息配合SyncBarrier使用

    private boolean enqueueMessage(MessageQueue queue, Message msg, long uptimeMillis) {
        msg.target = this;
        if (mAsynchronous) {
            msg.setAsynchronous(true);
        }
        return queue.enqueueMessage(msg, uptimeMillis);
    }

MQ 消息入队 

boolean enqueueMessage(Message msg, long when) {
        if (msg.target == null) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Message must have a target.");
        }
        if (msg.isInUse()) {
            throw new IllegalStateException(msg + " This message is already in use.");
        }

        synchronized (this) {
            if (mQuitting) {
                IllegalStateException e = new IllegalStateException(
                        msg.target + " sending message to a Handler on a dead thread");
                Log.w(TAG, e.getMessage(), e);
                msg.recycle();
                return false;
            }

            msg.markInUse();
            msg.when = when;
            //mMessages 当前的头部节点
            Message p = mMessages;
            boolean needWake;
            if (p == null || when == 0 || when < p.when) {
                // New head, wake up the event queue if blocked.
                // 插入头部 唤醒MQ如果next()方法里被阻塞
                msg.next = p;
                mMessages = msg;
                needWake = mBlocked;
            } else {
                // Inserted within the middle of the queue.  Usually we don't have to wake
                // up the event queue unless there is a barrier at the head of the queue
                // and the message is the earliest asynchronous message in the queue.
                //插入列表中间 通常我们不需要唤醒MQ 除非头部节点的消息是同步屏障且插入的消息是最早的异步消息
                needWake = mBlocked && p.target == null && msg.isAsynchronous();
                Message prev;
                // 按消息触发时间排序 找到合适位置插入
                for (;;) {
                    prev = p;
                    p = p.next;
                    if (p == null || when < p.when) {
                        break;
                    }
                    if (needWake && p.isAsynchronous()) {
                        needWake = false;
                    }
                }
                msg.next = p; // invariant: p == prev.next
                prev.next = msg;
            }

            // We can assume mPtr != 0 because mQuitting is false.
            // mPtr 是jni层 MQ的地址 
            if (needWake) {
                nativeWake(mPtr);
            }
        }
        return true;
    }

 Looper 开启循环

    public static void loop() {
        final Looper me = myLooper();
        if (me == null) {
            throw new RuntimeException("No Looper; Looper.prepare() wasn't called on this thread.");
        }
        final MessageQueue queue = me.mQueue;

        // Make sure the identity of this thread is that of the local process,
        // and keep track of what that identity token actually is.
        Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
        final long ident = Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
        //开启循环
        for (;;) {
            //从MQ里取消息
            Message msg = queue.next(); // might block
            if (msg == null) {
                // No message indicates that the message queue is quitting.
                return;
            }

            // This must be in a local variable, in case a UI event sets the logger
            final Printer logging = me.mLogging;
            if (logging != null) {
                logging.println(">>>>> Dispatching to " + msg.target + " " +
                        msg.callback + ": " + msg.what);
            }

            final long slowDispatchThresholdMs = me.mSlowDispatchThresholdMs;

            final long traceTag = me.mTraceTag;
            if (traceTag != 0 && Trace.isTagEnabled(traceTag)) {
                Trace.traceBegin(traceTag, msg.target.getTraceName(msg));
            }
            final long start = (slowDispatchThresholdMs == 0) ? 0 : SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
            final long end;
            try {
                //就是我们通常Handler里的回调方法
                msg.target.dispatchMessage(msg);
                end = (slowDispatchThresholdMs == 0) ? 0 : SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
            } finally {
                if (traceTag != 0) {
                    Trace.traceEnd(traceTag);
                }
            }
            if (slowDispatchThresholdMs > 0) {

                            + Thread.currentThread().getName() + ", h=" +
                            msg.target + " cb=" + msg.callback + " msg=" + msg.what);
                }
            }

            if (logging != null) {
                logging.println("<<<<< Finished to " + msg.target + " " + msg.callback);
            }

            // Make sure that during the course of dispatching the
            // identity of the thread wasn't corrupted.
            final long newIdent = Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
            if (ident != newIdent) {
                Log.wtf(TAG, "Thread identity changed from 0x"
                        + Long.toHexString(ident) + " to 0x"
                        + Long.toHexString(newIdent) + " while dispatching to "
                        + msg.target.getClass().getName() + " "
                        + msg.callback + " what=" + msg.what);
            }

            msg.recycleUnchecked();
        }
    }

 MQ 取下一条消息

Message next() {
        // Return here if the message loop has already quit and been disposed.

        // which is not supported.

        }

        int pendingIdleHandlerCount = -1; // -1 only during first iteration
        int nextPollTimeoutMillis = 0;
        for (;;) {
            if (nextPollTimeoutMillis != 0) {
                Binder.flushPendingCommands();
            }

                // in the queue (possibly a barrier) is due to be handled in the future.
                if (pendingIdleHandlerCount < 0

                }
                mPendingIdleHandlers = mIdleHandlers.toArray(mPendingIdleHandlers);
            }

            // Run the idle handlers.
            // We only ever reach this code block during the first iteration.
            for (int i = 0; i < pendingIdleHandlerCount; i++) {
                final IdleHandler idler = mPendingIdleHandlers[i];
                mPendingIdleHandlers[i] = null; // release the reference to the handler

                boolean keep = false;
                try {
                    keep = idler.queueIdle();
                } catch (Throwable t) {
                    Log.wtf(TAG, "IdleHandler threw exception", t);
                }

                if (!keep) {
                    synchronized (this) {
                        mIdleHandlers.remove(idler);
                    }
                }
            }

            // Reset the idle handler count to 0 so we do not run them again.
            pendingIdleHandlerCount = 0;

            // While calling an idle handler, a new message could have been delivered
            // so go back and look again for a pending message without waiting.
            nextPollTimeoutMillis = 0;
        }
    }

 

 

MessageQueue这个类中有很多native的方法 native层也存在MessageQueue.

private native static long nativeInit();
    private native static void nativeDestroy(long ptr);
    private native void nativePollOnce(long ptr, int timeoutMillis); /*non-static for callbacks*/
    private native static void nativeWake(long ptr);
    private native static boolean nativeIsPolling(long ptr);
    private native static void nativeSetFileDescriptorEvents(long ptr, int fd, int events);

 前面说的mPtr 即是navtiveMessageQueue地址 下面为初始化的方法。

附 查看Android 各版本源码地址： https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base.git/ (需翻墙)

static jlong android_os_MessageQueue_nativeInit(JNIEnv* env, jclass clazz) {
    NativeMessageQueue* nativeMessageQueue = new NativeMessageQueue();
    if (!nativeMessageQueue) {
        jniThrowRuntimeException(env, "Unable to allocate native queue");
        return 0;
    }

    nativeMessageQueue->incStrong(env);
    return reinterpret_cast<jlong>(nativeMessageQueue);
}

Looper 使用之前需要执行 Looper.prepare() 方法  初始化Looper,而MessageQueue也是在此时生成,最后放入ThreadLocal里

Looper 类中的 ThreadLocal 是一个线程内部的数据存储类，通过它可以在指定的线程中存储数据，数据存储以后，只有在指定线程中可以获取到存储的数据，对于其它线程来说无法获取到数据 当某些数据是以线程为作用域并且不同线程具有不同的数据副本的时候，就可以考虑采用ThreadLocal。

我们常说的UI线程 mainLooper又是在什么时候初始化？ 在ActivityThread main()里执行Looper.prepareMainLooper().

初始化消息的时候,有时候new Message(),但Message.obtain() 更合理 避免创建太多对象,

    public static Message obtain() {
        synchronized (sPoolSync) {
            if (sPool != null) {
                Message m = sPool;
                sPool = m.next;
                m.next = null;
                m.flags = 0; // clear in-use flag
                sPoolSize--;
                return m;
            }
        }
        return new Message();
    }

前面说的异步消息和SysBarrier在哪里有用到呢？ 

当设置一个View属性时，会逐层向上调用到ViewRootImpl.invalidate，从而调用scheduleTraversals，其中设置了一个SyncBarrier 之后由Vsync信号发送的用于遍历View(重新布局和绘制)的异步消息会高优先级执行。这个一步消息在执行doTraversal时，则将SyncBarrier再移除掉

    void scheduleTraversals() {
        if (!mTraversalScheduled) {
            mTraversalScheduled = true;
            mTraversalBarrier = mHandler.getLooper().getQueue().postSyncBarrier();
            mChoreographer.postCallback(
                    Choreographer.CALLBACK_TRAVERSAL, mTraversalRunnable, null);
            if (!mUnbufferedInputDispatch) {
                scheduleConsumeBatchedInput();
            }
            notifyRendererOfFramePending();
            pokeDrawLockIfNeeded();
        }
    }
    void doTraversal() {
        if (mTraversalScheduled) {
            mTraversalScheduled = false;
            mHandler.getLooper().getQueue().removeSyncBarrier(mTraversalBarrier);

            if (mProfile) {
                Debug.startMethodTracing("ViewAncestor");
            }

            performTraversals();

            if (mProfile) {
                Debug.stopMethodTracing();
                mProfile = false;
            }
        }
    }
