java不能直接访问操作系统底层,而是通过本地方法来访问。Unsafe类提供了硬件级别的原子操作,主要提供了以下功能:

通过Unsafe类分配堆外内存

类中提供的3个本地方法allocateMemory、reallocateMemory、freeMemory分别用于分配内存,扩充内存和释放内存,与C语言中的3个方法对应。

//分配var1字节大小的内存,返回起始地址偏移量
public native long allocateMemory(long var1);
//重新给var1起始地址的内存分配长度为var3字节大小的内存,返回新的内存起始地址偏移量
public native long reallocateMemory(long var1, long var3);
//释放起始地址为var1的内存
public native void freeMemory(long var1);
分配内存方法还有重分配内存方法都是分配的堆外内存,返回的是一个long类型的地址偏移量。这个偏移量在你的Java程序中每块内存都是唯一的。
操作类对象
可以定位对象某字段的内存位置,也可以修改对象的字段值,即使它是私有的;
首先获取对象的基址(对象在内存的偏移量起始地址)。之后获取某个filed在这个对象对应的类中的偏移地址,两者相加修改。
/**
* 获取类的某个对象的某个field偏移地址
*/
Field f = null;
try {
f = TUnsafe.class.getDeclaredField("i");
} catch (NoSuchFieldException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
long iFiledAddressShift = UNSAFE.objectFieldOffset(f);
TUnsafe sampleClass = new TUnsafe();
// 获取对象的偏移地址,需要将目标对象设为辅助数组的第一个元素(也是唯一的元素)。
// 由于这是一个复杂类型元素(不是基本数据类型),它的地址存储在数组的第一个元素。
// 然后,获取辅助数组的基本偏移量。
// 数组的基本偏移量是指数组对象的起始地址与数组第一个元素之间的偏移量。
Object helperArray[] = new Object[1];
helperArray[0] = sampleClass;
long baseOffset = UNSAFE.arrayBaseOffset(Object[].class);
long addressOfSampleClass = UNSAFE.getLong(helperArray, baseOffset);
int i = UNSAFE.getInt(addressOfSampleClass + iFiledAddressShift);
System.out.println(new StringBuilder().append(" Field I Address:")
.append(addressOfSampleClass).append("+")
.append(iFiledAddressShift).append(" Value:").append(i));
UNSAFE.putInt(sampleClass, iFiledAddressShift, 1024);
System.out.println(new StringBuilder().append(" Field I Address:")
.append(addressOfSampleClass).append("+")
.append(iFiledAddressShift).append(" Value:")
.append(sampleClass.i));
线程挂起与恢复
将一个线程进行挂起是通过park方法实现的,调用 park后,线程将一直阻塞直到超时或者中断等条件出现。unpark可以终止一个挂起的线程,使其恢复正常。整个并发框架中对线程的挂起操作被封装在 LockSupport类中,LockSupport类中有各种版本pack方法,但最终都调用了Unsafe.park()方法。
CAS操作 是通过compareAndSwapXXX方法实现的
/**
* 比较obj的offset处内存位置中的值和期望的值,如果相同则更新。此更新是不可中断的。
*
* @param obj 需要更新的对象
* @param offset obj中整型field的偏移量
* @param expect 希望field中存在的值
* @param update 如果期望值expect与field的当前值相同,设置filed的值为这个新值
* @return 如果field的值被更改返回true
*/
public native boolean compareAndSwapInt(Object obj, long offset, int expect, int update);
Clone
如何实现浅克隆?在clone(){…}方法中调用super.clone(),对吗?这里存在的问题是首先你必须继续Cloneable接口,并且在所有你需要做浅克隆的对象中实现clone()方法,对于一个懒懒的程序员来说,这个工作量太大了。
我不推荐上面的做法而是直接使用Unsafe,我们可以仅使用几行代码就实现浅克隆,并且它可以像某些工具类一样用于任意类的克隆。
