In this topic you will learn some information about Android process management. First let’s take a look at the launched processes during Android booting.

They can be divided into three kinds.

Root Process

init is the first process after kernel booting. The major task it performs:

l Parser and execute init.rc and init.%hardware%.rc

l Automatically generate device node under /dev

l Start log and property service

l Monitor for device, property set and child process exit events

Native Application Process

According to init.rc, init will fork the following native application process.

console: star a shell.

servicemanager: start binder IPC service manager.

mountd: mount all fs defined in /system/etc/mountd.conf if started, receive commands through local socket to mount any fs.

debuggerd: start debug system.

rild: start radio interface layer daemon.

zygote: start Android Java VM Runtime and start system server. It’s the most important process.

mediaserver: start AudioFlinger, MediaPlayerService and CameraService.

installd: start install package daemon.

JAVA Application Process

Every JAVA application process is forked from zygote process. system_server is a special JAVA process, which is directly forked from zygote.. Other JAVA process is created from ActivityManagerService(run in system_server process) like this.

int pid = Process.start("android.app.ActivityThread",

mSimpleProcessManagement ? app.processName : null, uid, uid,

gids, ((app.info.flags&ApplicationInfo.FLAG_DEBUGGABLE) != 0), null);

While Process.java use UNIX domain socket to communicate with zygote. So the overall picture is shown as following.

System Server

It’s the first JAVA application launched by zygote. It starts the core Android services, e.g. ActivityManager, WindowManager, PackageManager etc. It’s the Android core engine.

Persistent Application

During booting, ActivityManagerService.systemReady will start all persistent applications.

List apps = ActivityThread.getPackageManager().

getPersistentApplications(PackageManager.GET_SHARED_LIBRARY_FILES);

if (apps != null) {

int N = apps.size();

int i;

for (i=0; i<N; i++) {

ApplicationInfo info

= (ApplicationInfo)apps.get(i);

if (info != null &&

!info.packageName.equals("android")) {

addAppLocked(info);

}

}

}

Currently only Phone application is registered as a persistent app in AndroidManifest.xml like this.

<application android:name="PhoneApp"

android:persistent="true"

android:label="@string/dialerIconLabel"

android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher_phone">

So during booting, only phone application is automatically launched. It’s the “com.android.phone” process.

The First Activity

The first activity is launched by senting Intent.CATEGORY_HOME intent from ActivityManagerService.

Intent intent = new Intent(

mTopAction,

mTopData != null ? Uri.parse(mTopData) : null);

intent.setComponent(mTopComponent);

if (mFactoryTest != SystemServer.FACTORY_TEST_LOW_LEVEL) {

intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME);

}

ActivityInfo aInfo =

intent.resolveActivityInfo(mContext.getPackageManager(),

PackageManager.GET_SHARED_LIBRARY_FILES);

if (aInfo != null) {

intent.setComponent(new ComponentName(

aInfo.applicationInfo.packageName, aInfo.name));

// Don't do this if the home app is currently being

// instrumented.

ProcessRecord app = getProcessRecordLocked(aInfo.processName,

aInfo.applicationInfo.uid);

if (app == null || app.instrumentationClass == null) {

intent.setFlags(intent.getFlags() | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);

startActivityLocked(null, intent, null, null, 0, aInfo,

null, null, 0, 0, 0, false);

}

}

It’s the “android.process.acore” process. (The process name is defined in AndroidManifest.xml)

Auto-launched Application After Booting

When activity idle is detected in ActivityManagerService, it will broadcast ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED intent at the first time.

if (mFactoryTest != SystemServer.FACTORY_TEST_LOW_LEVEL) {

// Tell anyone interested that we are done booting!

synchronized (this) {

broadcastIntentLocked(null, null,

new Intent(Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED, null),

null, null, 0, null, null,

android.Manifest.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED,

false, false, MY_PID, Process.SYSTEM_UID);

}

}

Currently, MMS, AlarmClock, Calendar, MediaProvider, VoiceDialer and IM have registered as a receiver for ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED intent in their AndroidManifest.xml. So they will be automatically launched. (This explains the remained JAVA process.)

Email also registers as a receiver for ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED intent in its AndroidManifest.xml, but it defines android:enable=”false”. So it won’t be launched.

<receiver android:name=".service.BootReceiver"

android:enabled="false"

>

<intent-filter>

<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />

</intent-filter>

<intent-filter>

<action android:name="android.intent.action.DEVICE_STORAGE_LOW" />

</intent-filter>

<intent-filter>

<action android:name="android.intent.action.DEVICE_STORAGE_OK" />

</intent-filter>

</receiver>

DownloadProvider also registers as a receiver for ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED intent in its AndroidManifest.xml, but it defines android:exported=”false”. So it won’t be launched.

<receiver android:name=".DownloadReceiver" android:exported="false">

<intent-filter>

<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />

<action android:name="android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE" />

</intent-filter>

</receiver>

Behind the JAVA process

system_server is a special case. It calls ActivityThread.java’s systemMain static function, which creates an instance of ActivityThread. ActivityThread then creates an instance of ApplicationThread, Application and ApplicationContext.

Every other JAVA process works in a different way. It’s controlled by system_server while forked by zygote. When any JAVA process other than system_server is forked from zygote, it automatically calls ActivityThread.java’s main static function(See Process.java and the following code snippet).

try {

ZygoteInit.invokeStaticMain(cloader, className, mainArgs);

} catch (RuntimeException ex) {

logAndPrintError (newStderr, "Error starting. ", ex);

}

The ActivityThread.java’s main function creates an instance of ActivityThread. ActivityThread then creates an instance of ApplicationThread. The ApplicationThread will work as an IBinder object to interact with ActivityManagerService in system_server. The new process does nothting at this time other than waiting IPC call from system_server. The Application and ApplicationContext object won’t be created at this time. Actually it’s deferred to when the process really works, eg. start an activity, receive intent or start a service.

For example, when start an activity, ActivityManagerService know which process the to-be-launched activity should run in, so it will RPC call ApplicationThread’s scheduleLaunchActivity to launch a new activity in that process. ApplicationThread then post a message to let ActivityThread know it needs to start an activity. ActivityThread then creates Application and ApplicationContext object. After that, it calls Instrumentation, then Instrumentation finally calls JAVA dalvik VM to really create an activity JAVA object.
