Binder传输数据大小限制，你真的get到了吗?

 

                                      Binder传输数据大小限制，你真的get到了吗?

      Binder通信，我想对于Android开发的读者来说，一定并不陌生。可是你知道Binder传输的数据有大小限制吗，下面让我们从源码和实例角度带领读者来分析一把。

 

Binder传输数据大小的限制

     对于通过Intent跨进程传递数据大家都应该很清楚，但是Intent携带的数据大小限制是多少，这个可能大家都没有思考了，那么下面以一个实际的案例来说明，具体代码见如下：

 

        Intent intent = new Intent();
        Bitmap  mBmp = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.ic_launcher);
        Bitmap b1 = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(mBmp, 1024, 1024, false);
        intent.putExtra("byte data", b1);
        sendBroadcast(intent);

 执行如下代码片段会出现如下的错误信息，FAILED BINDER TRANSACTION ，很明显和Binder传输有关系，那么下面来分析一下

Intent携带信息的大小受Binder限制

      普通的应用是由Zygote孵化而来的用户进程，所映射的Binder内存大小是不到1M的，准确说是 110241024) - (4096 *2) ：这个限制定义在frameworks/native/libs/binder/processState.cpp类中，如果传输说句超过这个大小，系统就会报错，因为Binder本身就是为了进程间频繁而灵活的通信所设计的，并不是为了拷贝大数据而使用的，所以当传递大的数据时会出现上述的错误

#define BINDER_VM_SIZE ((1*1024*1024) - (4096 *2))
ProcessState::ProcessState()
    : mDriverFD(open_driver())//打开Binder设备驱动
    , mVMStart(MAP_FAILED)
    , mManagesContexts(false)
    , mBinderContextCheckFunc(NULL)
    , mBinderContextUserData(NULL)
    , mThreadPoolStarted(false)
    , mThreadPoolSeq(1)
{
    if (mDriverFD >= 0) {
        // XXX Ideally, there should be a specific define for whether we
        // have mmap (or whether we could possibly have the kernel module
        // availabla).
#if !defined(HAVE_WIN32_IPC)
        // mmap the binder, providing a chunk of virtual address space to receive transactions.
        //采用内存映射函数mmap，给binder分配一块虚拟地址空间，用来接收事务
    	mVMStart = mmap(0, BINDER_VM_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_NORESERVE, mDriverFD, 0);
        if (mVMStart == MAP_FAILED) {
            // *sigh*
            ALOGE("Using /dev/binder failed: unable to mmap transaction memory.\n");
            close(mDriverFD);//没有足够空间飞培给/dev/binder，则关闭驱动
            mDriverFD = -1;
        }
#else
        mDriverFD = -1;
#endif
    }

    LOG_ALWAYS_FATAL_IF(mDriverFD < 0, "Binder driver could not be opened.  Terminating.");
}

 

可以看到内存映射的时候已经限制了最大的数据，所以超过了内存映射的限制就会出现上述的错误。
