jvm是java的核心运行平台,自然是个非常复杂的系统。当然了,说jvm是个平台,实际上也是个泛称。准确的说,它是一个java虚拟机的统称,它并不指具体的某个虚拟机。所以,谈到java虚拟机时,往往我们通常说的都是一些规范性质的东西。

  那么,如果想要研究jvm是如何工作的,就不能是泛泛而谈了。我们必须要具体到某个指定的虚拟机实现,以便说清其过程。

1. 说说openjdk

  因为java实际上已经被oracle控制,而oracle本身是个商业公司,所以从某种程度上说,这里的java并不是完全开源的。我们称官方的jdk为oraclejdk. 或者叫 hotspot vm.

  与此同时,社区维护了一个完全开源的版本,openjdk。这两个jdk实际上,大部分是相同的,只是维护的进度不太一样,以及版权归属不一样。

  所以,如果想研究jvm的实现,那么基于openjdk来做,是比较明智的选择。

  如果想了解openjdk是如何设计的,以及它有什么高级特性,以及各种最佳实践,那么买一本书是最佳选择。

  如果业有余力,想去了解了解源码的,那么可以到官网查看源码。openjdk8的源码地址为: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/   因为是国外网站的原因,速度不会很快。所以只是在网站上查看源码,还是有点累的。另外,没有ide的帮助,估计很少有人能够坚持下去。另外的下载地址,大家可以网上搜索下,资源总是有的,国人链接速度快。多花点心思找找。

  当然要说明的一点是:一个没有设计背景,没有框架概念的源码阅读,都是而流氓。那样的工作,就像是空中楼阁,并不让人踏实。

2. 来谈谈C语言

  C语言,一般作为我们的大学入门语言,或多或少都接触过。但要说精通,可能就是很少一部分人了。但我要说的,只要学过C语言,对于大部分的程序阅读,基本上就不是问题了。

   openjdk的实现中,其核心的一部分就是使用C语言写的,当然其他很多语言也是一样的。所以,C语言相当重要,在底层的世界里。这里只是说它重要,但并不代表它就一定最厉害,即不是写C语言的GG就比写JAVA的JJ厉害了。因为,工作不分高低,语言同样。只是各有所长罢了。重点不是在这里,在于思想。

  C语言的编程几大流程:写代码(最核心)、编译、链接(最麻烦)、运行。

  当然,最核心的自然是写代码。不对,最核心的是:做设计。

  C语言中,以一个main()函数为入口,编写各种逻辑后,通过调用和控制main()方法,实现各种复杂逻辑。

  所以,要研究一个项目,首先就是要找到其入口。然后根据目的,再进行各功能实现的通路学习。

  C语言有极其灵活的语法,超级复杂的指针设计,以及各类似面向对象思想的结构体,以及随时可能操作系统获取信息的能力(各种链接)。所以,导致C语言有时确实比较难以读懂。这也是没办法的事,会很容易,精却很难。这是亘古不变的道理。是一个选择题,也是一道应用题。

  一句话,会一点,就够吃瓜群从使用了。

3. openjdk的入口

  上面说到,要研究一个C项目,首要就是找到其入口。那么,openjdk的入口在哪呢?

  是在 share/bin/main.c 中,main()方法就是其入口。这个文件命名,够清晰了吧,明眼人一看就知道了。哈哈,不过一般地,我们还是需要通过查资料才知晓。

  main.c是jvm的唯一main方法入口,其中,jdk被编译出来之后,会有许多的工作箱,如jmap,jps,jstack.... 这些工具箱的入口,实际也是这个main, 只是它们包含了不同的子模块,从而达到不同工具的目的。

  main.c的内容也不多,主要它也只是一个框架,为屏蔽各系统的差异。它的存在,主要是为引入 JLI_LANCH() 方法,相当于定义自己的main()方法。

/*
* This file contains the main entry point into the launcher code
* this is the only file which will be repeatedly compiled by other
* tools. The rest of the files will be linked in.

{
int i = 0;
StdArg *stdargs = JLI_GetStdArgs();
for (i = 0 ; i < margc ; i++) {
margv[i] = stdargs[i].arg;
}
margv[i] = NULL;
}
#else /* *NIXES */
// 各种linux平台上的参数,直接取自main入参
margc = argc;
margv = argv;
#endif /* WIN32 */
// 核心: 重新定义入口方法为: JLI_Launch()
return JLI_Launch(margc, margv,
sizeof(const_jargs) / sizeof(char *), const_jargs,
sizeof(const_appclasspath) / sizeof(char *), const_appclasspath,
FULL_VERSION,
DOT_VERSION,
(const_progname != NULL) ? const_progname : *margv,
(const_launcher != NULL) ? const_launcher : *margv,
(const_jargs != NULL) ? JNI_TRUE : JNI_FALSE,
const_cpwildcard, const_javaw, const_ergo_class);
}

  因为java语言被设计成跨平台的语言,那么如何跨平台呢?因为平台差异总是存在的,如果语言本身不关注平台,那么自然是有人在背后关注了平台,从而屏蔽掉了差异。是了,这就是虚拟机存在的意义。因此,在入口方法,我们就可以看到,它一上来就关注平台差异性。这是必须的。

4. openjdk的启动流程

  有了上面的入口知识,好像是明白了一些道理。但是好像还是没有达到要理解启动过程的目的。不急,且听我慢慢道来。

  我们启动一个虚拟机时,一般是使用  java -classpath:xxx <other-options> xx.xx , 或者是 java -jar <other-options> xx.jar 。 具体怎么用无所谓,重点是我们都是 java这个应用程序启动的虚拟机。因此,我们便知道 java 程序,是我们启动jvm的核心开关。

4.0. jvm启动流程框架

  废话不多说,java.c, 是我们要研究的重要文件。它将是一个控制启动流程的实现超人。而它的入口,就是在main()中的定义 JLI_Launch(...) , 所以让我们一睹真容。

// share/bin/java.c
/*
* Entry point.
*/
int
JLI_Launch(int argc, char ** argv, /* main argc, argc */
int jargc, const char** jargv, /* java args */

const char* pname, /* program name */
const char* lname, /* launcher name */
jboolean javaargs, /* JAVA_ARGS */
jboolean cpwildcard, /* classpath wildcard*/
jboolean javaw, /* windows-only javaw */

char jvmcfg[MAXPATHLEN];
_fVersion = fullversion;
_dVersion = dotversion;
_launcher_name = lname;
_program_name = pname;
_is_java_args = javaargs;
_wc_enabled = cpwildcard;
_ergo_policy = ergo;
// 初始化启动器
InitLauncher(javaw);
// 打印状态
DumpState();
// 跟踪调用启动
if (JLI_IsTraceLauncher()) {
int i;
printf("Command line args:\n");
for (i = 0; i < argc ; i++) {
printf("argv[%d] = %s\n", i, argv[i]);
}
AddOption("-Dsun.java.launcher.diag=true", NULL);
}
/*

// 初始化jvm,即加载java程序开始,应用表演时间到
return JVMInit(&ifn, threadStackSize, argc, argv, mode, what, ret);
}

  以上就是整个jvm虚拟机的启动过程框架了,基本上跑不掉几个点,就是解析命令行参数,设置参数到某范围内或者环境变量中。加载必要模块,传递变量存储。初始化系统。解析用户系统实现。当然一般地,就是会实现系统主循环,这个动作是由使用系统完成的,jvm只负责执行即可。

  因为我们只是想了解大概,所以不以为然,只是其中任何一个点都足够研究很久很久了。抛开那些不说,捡个芝麻先。需要明白:懂得许多的道理却依然过不好这一生。只能安心做个吃瓜群众。

  下面,就一些细节点,我们可以视兴趣,稍微深入了解下!

4.1. jre版本选择过程

  以上框架中,几个重要的节点,我们可以再细化下实现。细节就不说,太复杂。首先,就是如何确定当前系统使用的jre版本,这很重要,它决定了应用系统是否可以运行的问题。因为有时候,系统的使用者并非开发者,一定存在正确的jre版本。没有jre的环境,所有java执行就会是一句空谈。

// java.c
/*
* The SelectVersion() routine ensures that an appropriate version of
* the JRE is running. The specification for the appropriate version
* is obtained from either the manifest of a jar file (preferred) or
* from command line options.
* The routine also parses splash screen command line options and
* passes on their values in private environment variables.

if (*env_in != '\0')
*main_class = JLI_StringDup(env_in);

  逻辑也不复杂,大概就是,解析参数,读取manifest文件,jre版本校验,加载jre以便确认是否存在,最后将相关环境变量放置好。

4.2. 加载VM模块

  加载VM是非常重要的一个工作。它是一个平台相关的实现,我们看下 windows版本的实现吧。

// share/windows/bin/java_md.c
/*
* Load a jvm from "jvmpath" and initialize the invocation functions.
*/
jboolean
LoadJavaVM(const char *jvmpath, InvocationFunctions *ifn)
{
HINSTANCE handle;
JLI_TraceLauncher("JVM path is %s\n", jvmpath);
/*
* The Microsoft C Runtime Library needs to be loaded first. A copy is
* assumed to be present in the "JRE path" directory. If it is not found
* there (or "JRE path" fails to resolve), skip the explicit load and let
* nature take its course, which is likely to be a failure to execute.
*
*/
LoadMSVCRT();
// windows 中是通过路径加载dll文件实现
/* Load the Java VM DLL */
if ((handle = LoadLibrary(jvmpath)) == 0) {
JLI_ReportErrorMessage(DLL_ERROR4, (char *)jvmpath);
return JNI_FALSE;
}
/* Now get the function addresses */
// 获取虚拟机操作内存地址
ifn->CreateJavaVM =
(void *)GetProcAddress(handle, "JNI_CreateJavaVM");
ifn->GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs =
(void *)GetProcAddress(handle, "JNI_GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs");
if (ifn->CreateJavaVM == 0 || ifn->GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs == 0) {
JLI_ReportErrorMessage(JNI_ERROR1, (char *)jvmpath);
return JNI_FALSE;
}
return JNI_TRUE;
}

  可见,最重要的工作是被封装到 JRE 中的,应用层面只是调用JRE的方法即可。在windows中通过加载 msvcrt 模块完成工作,然后抽取vm的两个方法签名到 ifn 中,以便后续实用。

4.3. 解析参数信息

  通过参数解析,我们就可以如何设置参数了。更深层次的理解。

// 实际就是语法规范
/*
* Parses command line arguments. Returns JNI_FALSE if launcher
* should exit without starting vm, returns JNI_TRUE if vm needs
* to be started to process given options. *pret (the launcher
* process return value) is set to 0 for a normal exit.

4.4. jvm初始化

  好像我们一直讨论的都是这个,但是实际上里面还有一个真正的jvm的初始化过程。这里方才会接入真正的java程序,也才大家所关心的地方。

// java.c
JVMInit(InvocationFunctions* ifn, jlong threadStackSize,
int argc, char **argv,
int mode, char *what, int ret)
{
ShowSplashScreen();
return ContinueInNewThread(ifn, threadStackSize, argc, argv, mode, what, ret);
} /*
* Displays the splash screen according to the jar file name
* and image file names stored in environment variables
*/
void
ShowSplashScreen()
{
const char *jar_name = getenv(SPLASH_JAR_ENV_ENTRY);
const char *file_name = getenv(SPLASH_FILE_ENV_ENTRY);
int data_size;
void *image_data = NULL;
float scale_factor = 1;
char *scaled_splash_name = NULL;
if (file_name == NULL){
return;
}
scaled_splash_name = DoSplashGetScaledImageName(
jar_name, file_name, &scale_factor);
if (jar_name) {
if (scaled_splash_name) {
image_data = JLI_JarUnpackFile(
jar_name, scaled_splash_name, &data_size);
}
if (!image_data) {
scale_factor = 1;
image_data = JLI_JarUnpackFile(
jar_name, file_name, &data_size);
}
if (image_data) {
DoSplashInit();
DoSplashSetScaleFactor(scale_factor);
DoSplashLoadMemory(image_data, data_size);
JLI_MemFree(image_data);
}
} else {
DoSplashInit();
if (scaled_splash_name) {
DoSplashSetScaleFactor(scale_factor);
DoSplashLoadFile(scaled_splash_name);
} else {
DoSplashLoadFile(file_name);
}
}
if (scaled_splash_name) {
JLI_MemFree(scaled_splash_name);
}
DoSplashSetFileJarName(file_name, jar_name);
/*
* Done with all command line processing and potential re-execs so
* clean up the environment.
*/
(void)UnsetEnv(ENV_ENTRY);
(void)UnsetEnv(SPLASH_FILE_ENV_ENTRY);
(void)UnsetEnv(SPLASH_JAR_ENV_ENTRY);
JLI_MemFree(splash_jar_entry);
JLI_MemFree(splash_file_entry);
} int
ContinueInNewThread(InvocationFunctions* ifn, jlong threadStackSize,
int argc, char **argv,
int mode, char *what, int ret)
{
/*
* If user doesn't specify stack size, check if VM has a preference.

if (threadStackSize == 0) {
struct JDK1_1InitArgs args1_1;
memset((void*)&args1_1, 0, sizeof(args1_1));
args1_1.version = JNI_VERSION_1_1;
ifn->GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs(&args1_1); /* ignore return value */
if (args1_1.javaStackSize > 0) {
threadStackSize = args1_1.javaStackSize;
}
}
{ /* Create a new thread to create JVM and invoke main method */
JavaMainArgs args;
int rslt;
args.argc = argc;
args.argv = argv;
args.mode = mode;
args.what = what;
args.ifn = *ifn;
rslt = ContinueInNewThread0(JavaMain, threadStackSize, (void*)&args);
/* If the caller has deemed there is an error we
* simply return that, otherwise we return the value of
* the callee
*/
return (ret != 0) ? ret : rslt;
}
}

  看起来,jvm是通过一个新线程去运行应用系统的。在将执行控制权交由java代码后,它的主要作用,就是不停地接收命令,执行命令。从而变成一个真正的执行机器。
