strdup():返回一个字符串指针,指向新复制的字符串

int strncmp ( const char * str1, const char * str2, size_t n ): 比较两个字符串的前n个字符,如果相等,则返回0

• zygote模式,用于启动zygote进程 传入--zygote

• 非zygote模式,用于启动普通的java程序 比如常用的adb shell 下的命令,如am,monkey,appwidget等:

#!/system/bin/sh

if [ "$1" != "instrument" ] ; then
    cmd activity "$@"
else
    base=/system
    export CLASSPATH=$base/framework/am.jar
    exec app_process $base/bin com.android.commands.am.Am "$@"

• 启动Android虚拟机,即ART Runtime

• 注册一些内置的Native方法(JNI)

• 通过JNI调用执行ZygoteInit的main()方法

ZygoteInit#main()

    public static void main(String argv[]) {
        ZygoteServer zygoteServer = null;

        // 用程序自己的进程id和进程组id
        Os.setpgid(0, 0);

            if (!enableLazyPreload) {
                preload(bootTimingsTraceLog);
            }

            gcAndFinalize();
            Zygote.initNativeState(isPrimaryZygote);
            zygoteServer = new ZygoteServer(isPrimaryZygote);

            if (startSystemServer) {

                    return;
                }
            }

            Log.i(TAG, "Accepting command socket connections");

            // loops forever in the zygote.
            caller = zygoteServer.runSelectLoop(abiList);
        } catch (Throwable ex) {
            Log.e(TAG, "System zygote died with exception", ex);

• 创建ZygoteServer,利用local socket + file descriptor 机制响应应用的fork请求

• 预加载一些jar包中的class,classloader,一诶Android资源,共享库,图形驱动等

• 启动完之后运行几次GC清理下资源

• 从Zygote进程中使用fork方式创建system server进程

• /system/etc/preloaded-classes 文件中记录的类
包括Android Framework中的类,通过Class.forName(className,true,null)加载

• 缓存一些非启动类的classloader
比如HIDL和Android test相关的

• 公共资源,让所有进程可以共享
• com.android.internal.R.array.preloaded_drawables 中的内容
• com.android.internal.R.array.preloaded_color_state_lists
• com.android.internal.R.bool.config_freeformWindowManagement

• HAL库

• 图像库驱动,比如OpenGL 或者 Vulkan驱动

• 加载共享的动态库
• libandroid.so
• libcompiler_rt.so
• libjnigraphics.so

• TextView的字体资源

• WebView相关的so库,libwebviewchromium_loader.so

总结

1. Zygote进程的入口其实在ZygoteInit中;

2. Zygote进程是通过app_process进程启动的

3. zygote fork出其他进程依赖了localsocket + fd的机制

4. 在启动Zygote进程之前,会先启动虚拟机,然后注册一些Native/JNI方法

5. Android中每个进程都只有一个虚拟机,每个线程代表了着一个JNIEnv

6. Zygote可以说是第一个Java进程

7. system_server进程严格意义上并不是zygote主动启动的,而是创建zygote进程的过程中,一起fork出来的,只不过是zygote fork的.
