一、基础知识

1.Android 进程优先级

1.1 进程优先级等级一般分法：
- Activte process
- Visible Process
- Service process
- Background process
- Empty process

1.2 进程优先级号

ProcessList.java

 // Adjustment used in certain places where we don't know it yet.
     // (Generally this is something that is going to be cached, but we
     // don't know the exact value in the cached range to assign yet.)
     static final int UNKNOWN_ADJ = 16;
 
     // This is a process only hosting activities that are not visible,
     // so it can be killed without any disruption.
     static final int CACHED_APP_MAX_ADJ = 15;
     static final int CACHED_APP_MIN_ADJ = 9;
 
     // The B list of SERVICE_ADJ -- these are the old and decrepit
     // services that aren't as shiny and interesting as the ones in the A list.
     static final int SERVICE_B_ADJ = 8;
 
     // This is the process of the previous application that the user was in.
     // This process is kept above other things, because it is very common to
     // switch back to the previous app.  This is important both for recent
     // task switch (toggling between the two top recent apps) as well as normal
     // UI flow such as clicking on a URI in the e-mail app to view in the browser,
     // and then pressing back to return to e-mail.
     static final int PREVIOUS_APP_ADJ = 7;
 
     // This is a process holding the home application -- we want to try
     // avoiding killing it, even if it would normally be in the background,
     // because the user interacts with it so much.
     static final int HOME_APP_ADJ = 6;
 
     // This is a process holding an application service -- killing it will not
     // have much of an impact as far as the user is concerned.
     static final int SERVICE_ADJ = 5;
 
     // This is a process with a heavy-weight application.  It is in the
     // background, but we want to try to avoid killing it.  Value set in
     // system/rootdir/init.rc on startup.
     static final int HEAVY_WEIGHT_APP_ADJ = 4;
 
     // This is a process currently hosting a backup operation.  Killing it
     // is not entirely fatal but is generally a bad idea.
     static final int BACKUP_APP_ADJ = 3;
 
     // This is a process only hosting components that are perceptible to the
     // user, and we really want to avoid killing them, but they are not
     // immediately visible. An example is background music playback.
     static final int PERCEPTIBLE_APP_ADJ = 2;
 
     // This is a process only hosting activities that are visible to the
     // user, so we'd prefer they don't disappear.
     static final int VISIBLE_APP_ADJ = 1;
 
     // This is the process running the current foreground app.  We'd really
     // rather not kill it!
     static final int FOREGROUND_APP_ADJ = 0;
 
     // This is a process that the system or a persistent process has bound to,
     // and indicated it is important.
     static final int PERSISTENT_SERVICE_ADJ = -11;
 
     // This is a system persistent process, such as telephony.  Definitely
     // don't want to kill it, but doing so is not completely fatal.
     static final int PERSISTENT_PROC_ADJ = -12;
 
     // The system process runs at the default adjustment.
     static final int SYSTEM_ADJ = -16;
 
     // Special code for native processes that are not being managed by the system (so
     // don't have an oom adj assigned by the system).
     static final int NATIVE_ADJ = -17;

2. Android Low Memory Killer

　　Android系统内存不足时，系统会杀掉一部分进程以释放空间，谁生谁死的这个生死大权就是由LMK所决定的，这就是Android系统中的Low Memory Killer，其基于Linux的OOM机制,其阈值定义如下面所示的lowmemorykiller文件中，当然也可以通过系统的init.rc实现自定义。

lowmemorykiller.c

 static uint32_t lowmem_debug_level = ;
 static int lowmem_adj[] = {
     ,
     ,
     ,
     ,
 };
 static int lowmem_adj_size = ;
 static int lowmem_minfree[] = {
      * ,    /* 6MB */
      * ,   /* 8MB */
      * ,   /* 16MB */
      * ,  /* 64MB */
 };
 static int lowmem_minfree_size = ;

① 在Low Memory Killer中通过进程的oom_adj与占用内存的大小决定要杀死的进程，oom_adj值越小越不容易被杀死。其中，lowmem_minfree是杀进程的时机，谁被杀，则取决于lowmem_adj，具体值得含义参考上面 Android进程优先级 所述.

② 在init.rc中定义了init进程（系统进程）的oom_adj为-16，其不可能会被杀死(init的PID是)，而前台进程是（这里的前台进程是指用户正在使用的Activity所在的进程），用户按Home键回到桌面时的优先级是6，普通的Service的进程是8.

init.rc

 # Set init and its forked children's oom_adj.
     write /proc//oom_adj -

关于Low Memory Killer的具体实现原理可参考Ref-2.

3. 查看某个App的进程

步骤（手机与PC连接）
1. adb shell
2. ps | grep 进程名
3. cat /proc/pid/oom_adj //其中pid是上述grep得到的进程号

4. Android账号和同步机制

属于Android中较偏冷的知识，具体参考 Ref 3/4/5

二、现有方法

1. 网络连接保活方法

a. GCM
b. 公共的第三方push通道(信鸽等)
c. 自身跟服务器通过轮询，或者长连接
具体实现请参考 微信架构师杨干荣的"微信Android客户端后台保活经验分享" （Ref-1）.

2. 双service 提高进程优先级

思路：（API level > 18 ）
① 应用启动时启动一个假的Service（FakeService）, startForeground()，传一个空的Notification
② 启动真正的Service（AlwaysLiveService），startForeground()，注意必须相同Notification ID
③ FakeService stopForeground()

效果：通过adb查看,运行在后台的服务其进程号变成了1（优先级仅次于前台进程）

风险：Android系统前台service的一个漏洞，可能在6.0以上系统中修复

实现：核心代码如下

AlwaysLiveService 常驻内存服务

 @Override
    public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
        startForeground(R.id.notify, new Notification());
        startService(new Intent(this, FakeService.class));
        return super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);
    }

FakeService 临时服务

 public class FakeService extends Service {
     @Nullable
     @Override
     public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
         return null;
     }
 
     @Override
     public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
         startForeground(R.id.notify, new Notification());
         stopSelf();
         return super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);
     }
 
     @Override
     public void onDestroy() {
         stopForeground(true);
         super.onDestroy();
     }
 }

3. 守护进程及时拉起

AlarmReceiver， ConnectReceiver，BootReceiver等

三、新方法(AccountSyncAdapter)

1. 思路：

利用Android系统提供的账号和同步机制实现

2. 效果：

① 通过adb查看,运行在后台的服务其进程号变成了1（优先级仅次于前台进程），能提高进程优先级，对比如下图

正常情况

采用AccountSyncAdapter方法后

② 进程被系统kill后，可以由syn拉起

3. 风险：

① SyncAdapter时间进度不高，往往会因为手机处于休眠状态，而时间往后调整，同步间隔最低为1分钟
② 用户可以单独停止或者删除，有些手机账号默认是不同步的，需要手动开启

4. 实现：核心代码如下

① 建立数据同步系统（ContentProvider）

通过一个ContentProvider用来作数据同步，由于并没有实际数据同步，所以此处就直接建立一个空的ContentProvider即可

 public class XXAccountProvider extends ContentProvider {
     public static final String AUTHORITY = "包名.provider";
     public static final String CONTENT_URI_BASE = "content://" + AUTHORITY;
     public static final String TABLE_NAME = "data";
     public static final Uri CONTENT_URI = Uri.parse(CONTENT_URI_BASE + "/" + TABLE_NAME);
 
     @Override
     public boolean onCreate() {
         return true;
     }
 
     @Nullable
     @Override
     public Cursor query(Uri uri, String[] projection, String selection,
                         String[] selectionArgs, String sortOrder) {
         return null;
     }
 
     @Nullable
     @Override
     public String getType(Uri uri) {
         return new String();
     }
 
     @Nullable
     @Override
     public Uri insert(Uri uri, ContentValues values) {
         return null;
     }
 
     @Override
     public int delete(Uri uri, String selection, String[] selectionArgs) {
         return 0;
     }
 
     @Override
     public int update(Uri uri, ContentValues values, String selection, String[] selectionArgs) {
         return 0;
     }
 }

然后再Manifest中声明

    <provider
        android:name="**.XXAccountProvider"
        android:authorities="@string/account_auth_provider"
        android:exported="false"
        android:syncable="true"/>

② 建立Sync系统 (SyncAdapter)
通过实现SyncAdapter这个系统服务后, 利用系统的定时器对程序数据ContentProvider进行更新，具体步骤为：
- 创建Sync服务

 public class XXSyncService extends Service {
     private static final Object sSyncAdapterLock = new Object();
     private static XXSyncAdapter sSyncAdapter = null;
     @Override
     public void onCreate() {
         synchronized (sSyncAdapterLock) {
             if (sSyncAdapter == null) {
                 sSyncAdapter = new XXSyncAdapter(getApplicationContext(), true);
             }
         }
     }
 
     @Override
     public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
         return sSyncAdapter.getSyncAdapterBinder();
     }
 
     static class XXSyncAdapter extends AbstractThreadedSyncAdapter {
         public XXSyncAdapter(Context context, boolean autoInitialize) {
             super(context, autoInitialize);
         }
         @Override
         public void onPerformSync(Account account, Bundle extras, String authority, ContentProviderClient provider, SyncResult syncResult) {
             getContext().getContentResolver().notifyChange(XXAccountProvider.CONTENT_URI, null, false);
         }
     }
 }

- 声明Sync服务

     <service
         android:name="**.XXSyncService"
         android:exported="true"
         android:process=":core">
         <intent-filter>
             <action
                 android:name="android.content.SyncAdapter"/>
         </intent-filter>
         <meta-data
             android:name="android.content.SyncAdapter"
             android:resource="@xml/sync_adapter"/>
     </service>

其中sync_adapter为：

 <sync-adapter xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
               android:accountType="@string/account_auth_type"
               android:allowParallelSyncs="false"
               android:contentAuthority="@string/account_auth_provide"
               android:isAlwaysSyncable="true"
               android:supportsUploading="false"
               android:userVisible="true"/>

参数说明：
android:contentAuthority 指定要同步的ContentProvider在其AndroidManifest.xml文件中有个android:authorities属性。
android:accountType 表示进行同步的账号的类型。
android:userVisible 设置是否在“设置”中显示
android:supportsUploading 设置是否必须notifyChange通知才能同步
android:allowParallelSyncs 是否支持多账号同时同步
android:isAlwaysSyncable 设置所有账号的isSyncable为1
android:syncAdapterSettingsAction 指定一个可以设置同步的activity的Action。

- 账户调用Sync服务
首先配置好Account（第三步），然后再通过ContentProvider实现
手动更新

 public void triggerRefresh() {
     Bundle b = new Bundle();
     b.putBoolean(ContentResolver.SYNC_EXTRAS_MANUAL, true);
     b.putBoolean(ContentResolver.SYNC_EXTRAS_EXPEDITED, true);
     ContentResolver.requestSync(
             account,
             CONTENT_AUTHORITY,
             b);
 }

添加账号

 Account account = AccountService.GetAccount();
 AccountManager accountManager = (AccountManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ACCOUNT_SERVICE);
 accountManager.addAccountExplicitly(...)

同步周期设置

 ContentResolver.setIsSyncable(account, CONTENT_AUTHORITY, 1);
 ContentResolver.setSyncAutomatically(account, CONTENT_AUTHORITY, true);
 ContentResolver.addPeriodicSync(account, CONTENT_AUTHORITY, new Bundle(), SYNC_FREQUENCY);

③ 建立账号系统 (Account Authenticator)
通过建立Account账号，并关联SyncAdapter服务实现同步
- 创建Account服务

 public class XXAuthService extends Service {
     private XXAuthenticator mAuthenticator;
 
     @Override
     public void onCreate() {
         mAuthenticator = new XXAuthenticator(this);
     }
 
     private XXAuthenticator getAuthenticator() {
         if (mAuthenticator == null)
             mAuthenticator = new XXAuthenticator(this);
         return mAuthenticator;
     }
 
     @Override
     public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
         return getAuthenticator().getIBinder();
     }
 
     class XXAuthenticator extends AbstractAccountAuthenticator {
         private final Context context;
         private AccountManager accountManager;
         public XXAuthenticator(Context context) {
             super(context);
             this.context = context;
             accountManager = AccountManager.get(context);
         }
 
         @Override
         public Bundle addAccount(AccountAuthenticatorResponse response, String accountType, String authTokenType, String[] requiredFeatures, Bundle options)
                 throws NetworkErrorException {
             // 添加账号 示例代码
             final Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
             final Intent intent = new Intent(context, AuthActivity.class);
             intent.putExtra(AccountManager.KEY_ACCOUNT_AUTHENTICATOR_RESPONSE, response);
             bundle.putParcelable(AccountManager.KEY_INTENT, intent);
             return bundle;
         }
 
         @Override
         public Bundle getAuthToken(AccountAuthenticatorResponse response, Account account, String authTokenType, Bundle options)
                 throws NetworkErrorException {
             // 认证 示例代码
             String authToken = accountManager.peekAuthToken(account, getString(R.string.account_token_type));
             //if not, might be expired, register again
             if (TextUtils.isEmpty(authToken)) {
                 final String password = accountManager.getPassword(account);
                 if (password != null) {
                     //get new token
                     authToken = account.name + password;
                 }
             }
             //without password, need to sign again
             final Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
             if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(authToken)) {
                 bundle.putString(AccountManager.KEY_ACCOUNT_NAME, account.name);
                 bundle.putString(AccountManager.KEY_ACCOUNT_TYPE, account.type);
                 bundle.putString(AccountManager.KEY_AUTHTOKEN, authToken);
                 return bundle;
             }
 
             //no account data at all, need to do a sign
             final Intent intent = new Intent(context, AuthActivity.class);
             intent.putExtra(AccountManager.KEY_ACCOUNT_AUTHENTICATOR_RESPONSE, response);
             intent.putExtra(AuthActivity.ARG_ACCOUNT_NAME, account.name);
             bundle.putParcelable(AccountManager.KEY_INTENT, intent);
             return bundle;
         }
 
         @Override
         public String getAuthTokenLabel(String authTokenType) {
 //            throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
             return null;
         }
 
         @Override
         public Bundle editProperties(AccountAuthenticatorResponse response, String accountType) {
             return null;
         }
 
         @Override
         public Bundle confirmCredentials(AccountAuthenticatorResponse response, Account account, Bundle options)
                 throws NetworkErrorException {
             return null;
         }
 
         @Override
         public Bundle updateCredentials(AccountAuthenticatorResponse response, Account account, String authTokenType, Bundle options)
                 throws NetworkErrorException {
             return null;
         }
 
         @Override
         public Bundle hasFeatures(AccountAuthenticatorResponse response, Account account, String[] features)
                 throws NetworkErrorException {
             return null;
         }
     }
 }

- 声明Account服务

 <service
     android:name="**.XXAuthService"
     android:exported="true"
     android:process=":core">
     <intent-filter>
         <action
             android:name="android.accounts.AccountAuthenticator"/>
     </intent-filter>
     <meta-data
         android:name="android.accounts.AccountAuthenticator"
         android:resource="@xml/authenticator"/>
 </service>

其中authenticator为：

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <account-authenticator xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
     android:accountType="@string/account_auth_type"
     android:icon="@drawable/icon"
     android:smallIcon="@drawable/icon"
     android:label="@string/app_name"
 />

- 使用Account服务
同SyncAdapter，通过AccountManager使用

　　- 申请Token主要是通过 [AccountManager.getAuthToken]系列方法

　　- 添加账号则通过 [AccountManager.addAccount]

　　- 查看是否存在账号通过 [AccountManager.getAccountsByType]
