Android native Thread类解析

Android native的Thread类是Android提供的一个基础类，源码路径：
system\core\include\utils\Thread.h
system\core\libutils\Threads.cpp

该类提供的基础功能涵盖了线程的生命周期：创建、运行、销毁。主要成员函数如下：
Thread类

线程创建通过执行run函数，默认只需要传入线程名作为参数：

status_t Thread::run(const char* name, int32_t priority, size_t stack)
{
    Mutex::Autolock _l(mLock);

    if (mRunning) {
        // thread already started
        return INVALID_OPERATION;
    }

    // reset status and exitPending to their default value, so we can
    // try again after an error happened (either below, or in readyToRun())
    mStatus = NO_ERROR;
    mExitPending = false;
    mThread = thread_id_t(-1);

    // hold a strong reference on ourself
    mHoldSelf = this;
    mRunning = true;

    bool res;
    res = androidCreateRawThreadEtc(_threadLoop,
            this, name, priority, stack, &mThread);
    return NO_ERROR;
}

int androidCreateRawThreadEtc(android_thread_func_t entryFunction,
                               void *userData,
                               const char* threadName __android_unused,
                               int32_t threadPriority,
                               size_t threadStackSize,
                               android_thread_id_t *threadId)
{
    pthread_attr_t attr;
    pthread_attr_init(&attr);
    pthread_attr_setdetachstate(&attr, PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED);

    errno = 0;
    pthread_t thread;
    int result = pthread_create(&thread, &attr,
                    (android_pthread_entry)entryFunction, userData);
    pthread_attr_destroy(&attr);
    return 1;
}

创建完成后，开始执行_threadLoop()函数，该函数主要通过调用ThreadLoop()函数，因此基类必要要实现ThreadLoop函数，作为线程执行函数：

int Thread::_threadLoop(void* user)
{
    Thread* const self = static_cast<Thread*>(user);

    sp<Thread> strong(self->mHoldSelf);
    wp<Thread> weak(strong);
    self->mHoldSelf.clear();

    bool first = true;

    do {
        bool result;
        if (first) {
            first = false;
            self->mStatus = self->readyToRun();
            result = (self->mStatus == NO_ERROR);

            if (result && !self->exitPending()) {
                // Binder threads (and maybe others) rely on threadLoop
                // running at least once after a successful ::readyToRun()
                // (unless, of course, the thread has already been asked to exit
                // at that point).
                // This is because threads are essentially used like this:
                //   (new ThreadSubclass())->run();
                // The caller therefore does not retain a strong reference to
                // the thread and the thread would simply disappear after the
                // successful ::readyToRun() call instead of entering the
                // threadLoop at least once.
                result = self->threadLoop();
            }
        } else {
            result = self->threadLoop();
        }

        // establish a scope for mLock
        {
        Mutex::Autolock _l(self->mLock);
        if (result == false || self->mExitPending) {
            self->mExitPending = true;
            self->mRunning = false;
            // clear thread ID so that requestExitAndWait() does not exit if
            // called by a new thread using the same thread ID as this one.
            self->mThread = thread_id_t(-1);
            // note that interested observers blocked in requestExitAndWait are
            // awoken by broadcast, but blocked on mLock until break exits scope
            self->mThreadExitedCondition.broadcast();
            break;
        }
        }

        // Release our strong reference, to let a chance to the thread
        // to die a peaceful death.
        strong.clear();
        // And immediately, re-acquire a strong reference for the next loop
        strong = weak.promote();
    } while(strong != 0);

    return 0;
}

线程销毁，子类最好通过实现requestExit()函数，首先调用Thread类的requestExit()函数，将线程状态mExitPending置为true，然后中断ThreadLoop：

void Thread::requestExit()
{
    Mutex::Autolock _l(mLock);
    mExitPending = true;
}
