理论基础
我们在android开发项目过程中都必然会更so加载打交道,那么so加载在系统中的顺序和流程是怎样的,我们就有必要对这个加载过程进行熟悉了解掌握。
so的加载是一种解析式装载,这与dex有一定区别,dex是先加载进行优化验证生成odex,再去解析odex文件,而so更像边解析边装载,在加载过程中主要解析是load段。
下面主要是以java层的so加载进行从源码上进行解析加载流程。
java层的so加载流程分析
System.loadLibrary入口点
在java层我们知道加载so文件是通过System.loadLibrary函数其实现的,下面就以其作为入口点进行分析它的调用关系和实现。
System.loadLibrary在的函数定义系统source\libcore\luni\src\main\java\java\lang\system.java的文件中。
下面是其函数定义实现。
//参数就是要加载的so文件名称
public static void loadLibrary(String libName) {
//通过调用Runtime下面的loadLibrary函数实现
//函数有两个参数,参数1是加载的so文件名,参数2 类加载器。
Runtime.getRuntime().loadLibrary(libName, VMStack.getCallingClassLoader());
}
Runtime的loadLibray解析
通过上面的System.java的loadLibrary函数我们需要继续分析Runtime.java文件中的loadLibray函数的定义实现。
Runtime的loadLibrary函数在android系统中的位置是
source\libcore\luni\src\main\java\java\lang\Runtime.java文件。
下面是Runtime的 loadLibrary函数的定义实现源码。
/*
* Searches for and loads the given shared library using the given ClassLoader.
*/
void loadLibrary(String libraryName, ClassLoader loader) {
if (loader != null) {
//通过加载器去查找要加载的so文件名
String filename = loader.findLibrary(libraryName);
//查找失败
if (filename == null) {
// It's not necessarily true that the ClassLoader used
// System.mapLibraryName, but the default setup does, and it's
// misleading to say we didn't find "libMyLibrary.so" when we
// actually searched for "liblibMyLibrary.so.so".
throw new UnsatisfiedLinkError(loader + " couldn't find \"" +
System.mapLibraryName(libraryName) + "\"");
}
//加载so文件名
String error = doLoad(filename, loader);
if (error != null) {
throw new UnsatisfiedLinkError(error);
}
return;
}
String filename = System.mapLibraryName(libraryName);
List<String> candidates = new ArrayList<String>();
String lastError = null;
//循环遍历文件路径
for (String directory : mLibPaths) {
//文件路径和文件名进行拼接
String candidate = directory + filename;
candidates.add(candidate);
if (IoUtils.canOpenReadOnly(candidate)) {
String error = doLoad(candidate, loader);
if (error == null) {
return; // We successfully loaded the library. Job done.
}
lastError = error;
}
}
if (lastError != null) {
throw new UnsatisfiedLinkError(lastError);
}
throw new UnsatisfiedLinkError("Library " + libraryName + " not found; tried " + candidates);
}
Runtime的doLoad解析
通过上面的Runtime的loadLibrary函数,我们看到加载so的函数是走到doLoad函数,那么我们就需要继续分析Runtime下的doload函数的定义实现。
Rutime下的doload函数在系统中的
source\libcore\luni\src\main\java\java\lang\Runtime.java文件中。
下面的代码是Runtime的doload函数的定义实现。
private String doLoad(String name, ClassLoader loader) {
// Android apps are forked from the zygote, so they can't have a custom LD_LIBRARY_PATH,
// which means that by default an app's shared library directory isn't on LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
// The PathClassLoader set up by frameworks/base knows the appropriate path, so we can load
// libraries with no dependencies just fine, but an app that has multiple libraries that
// depend on each other needed to load them in most-dependent-first order.
// We added API to Android's dynamic linker so we can update the library path used for
// the currently-running process. We pull the desired path out of the ClassLoader here
// and pass it to nativeLoad so that it can call the private dynamic linker API.
// We didn't just change frameworks/base to update the LD_LIBRARY_PATH once at the
// beginning because multiple apks can run in the same process and third party code can
// use its own BaseDexClassLoader.
// We didn't just add a dlopen_with_custom_LD_LIBRARY_PATH call because we wanted any
// dlopen(3) calls made from a .so's JNI_OnLoad to work too.
// So, find out what the native library search path is for the ClassLoader in question...
String ldLibraryPath = null;
if (loader != null && loader instanceof BaseDexClassLoader) {
ldLibraryPath = ((BaseDexClassLoader) loader).getLdLibraryPath();
}
// nativeLoad should be synchronized so there's only one LD_LIBRARY_PATH in use regardless
// of how many ClassLoaders are in the system, but dalvik doesn't support synchronized
// internal natives.
synchronized (this) {
return nativeLoad(name, loader, ldLibraryPath);
}
}
总结
从以上的源码实现流程分析,我们可以看出Android在java层加载so的接口是System.loadLibrary(),通过层层递进关系从而实现java层的加载so。
下图是详细的java层加载so函数的调用关系。
