本文分析基于Android R(11)源码

Java对象的创建由Allocator负责,回收由Collector负责。从Android O开始,对于前台应用默认的GC Collector是CC(Concurrent Copying) Collector,与之相匹配的Allocator则是Region-based Bump Pointer Allocator(with TLAB)。

本文不打算讨论CC Collector和Region TLAB的细节和实现,一是因为这些内容受众较少,二是因为我自己还在慢慢摸索和吃透其中的细节,可能日后会专门成文介绍他们。

除去繁杂的细节介绍,本文希望回答一个简单的问题:

对前台应用而言,GC到底会在何时触发?

art/runtime/gc/gc_cause.h

25 // What caused the GC?
26 enum GcCause {
27   // Invalid GC cause used as a placeholder.
28   kGcCauseNone,
29   // GC triggered by a failed allocation. Thread doing allocation is blocked waiting for GC before
30   // retrying allocation.
31   kGcCauseForAlloc,
32   // A background GC trying to ensure there is free memory ahead of allocations.
33   kGcCauseBackground,
34   // An explicit System.gc() call.
35   kGcCauseExplicit,
36   // GC triggered for a native allocation when NativeAllocationGcWatermark is exceeded.
37   // (This may be a blocking GC depending on whether we run a non-concurrent collector).
38   kGcCauseForNativeAlloc,
39   // GC triggered for a collector transition.
40   kGcCauseCollectorTransition,
41   // Not a real GC cause, used when we disable moving GC (currently for GetPrimitiveArrayCritical).
42   kGcCauseDisableMovingGc,
43   // Not a real GC cause, used when we trim the heap.
44   kGcCauseTrim,
45   // Not a real GC cause, used to implement exclusion between GC and instrumentation.
46   kGcCauseInstrumentation,
47   // Not a real GC cause, used to add or remove app image spaces.
48   kGcCauseAddRemoveAppImageSpace,
49   // Not a real GC cause, used to implement exclusion between GC and debugger.
50   kGcCauseDebugger,
51   // GC triggered for background transition when both foreground and background collector are CMS.
52   kGcCauseHomogeneousSpaceCompact,
53   // Class linker cause, used to guard filling art methods with special values.
54   kGcCauseClassLinker,
55   // Not a real GC cause, used to implement exclusion between code cache metadata and GC.
56   kGcCauseJitCodeCache,
57   // Not a real GC cause, used to add or remove system-weak holders.
58   kGcCauseAddRemoveSystemWeakHolder,
59   // Not a real GC cause, used to prevent hprof running in the middle of GC.
60   kGcCauseHprof,
61   // Not a real GC cause, used to prevent GetObjectsAllocated running in the middle of GC.
62   kGcCauseGetObjectsAllocated,
63   // GC cause for the profile saver.
64   kGcCauseProfileSaver,
65   // GC cause for running an empty checkpoint.
66   kGcCauseRunEmptyCheckpoint,
67 };

根据GcCause可知,可以触发GC的条件还是很多的。对于开发者而言,常见的是其中三种:

  • GcCauseForAlloc:通过new分配新对象时,堆中剩余空间(普通应用默认上限为256M,声明largeHeap的应用为512M)不足,因此需要先进行GC。这种情况会导致当前线程阻塞。

  • GcCauseExplicit:当应用调用系统API System.gc()时,会产生一次GC动作。

  • GcCauseBackground:后台GC,这里的“后台”并不是指应用切到后台才会执行的GC,而是GC在运行时基本不会影响其他线程的执行,所以也可以理解为并发GC。相比于前两种GC,后台GC出现的更多也更加隐秘,因此值得详细介绍。下文讲述的全是这种GC。

Java堆的实际大小起起伏伏,影响的因素无非是分配和回收。分配的过程是离散且频繁的,它来自于不同的工作线程,而且可能每次只分配一小块区域。回收的过程则是统一且偶发的,它由HeapTaskDaemon线程执行,在GC的多个阶段中都采用并发算法,因此不会暂停工作线程(实际上会暂停很短一段时间)。

当我们在Java代码中通过new分配对象时,虚拟机会调用AllocObjectWithAllocator来执行真实的分配。在每一次成功分配Java对象后,都会去检测是否需要进行下一次GC,这就是GcCauseBackground GC的触发时机。

触发的条件需要满足一个判断,如果new_num_bytes_allocated(所有已分配的字节数,包括此次新分配的对象) >= concurrent_start_bytes_(下一次GC触发的阈值),那么就请求一次新的GC。new_num_bytes_alloated是当前分配时计算的,concurrent_start_bytes_是上一次GC结束时计算的。以下将分别介绍这两个值的计算过程和背后的设计思想。

AllocObjectWithAllocator的实际分配可以分为三条分支,但如果限定为Region-based Bump Pointer Allocator,则只剩两条分支:

  1. 如果当前线程TLAB区域的剩余空间可以容纳下这次分配的对象,则在TLAB区域中直接分配。分配算法采用Bump Pointer的方式,仅仅更新已分配区域的游标,简单高效。

    art/runtime/thread-inl.h

    307 inline mirror::Object* Thread::AllocTlab(size_t bytes) {
    308   DCHECK_GE(TlabSize(), bytes);
    309   ++tlsPtr_.thread_local_objects;
    310   mirror::Object* ret = reinterpret_cast<mirror::Object*>(tlsPtr_.thread_local_pos);
    311   tlsPtr_.thread_local_pos += bytes;
    312   return ret;
    313 }
    

    在这种情况下,new_num_bytes_allocated为0,表明Java堆的已使用区域并没有增大。这是因为TLAB在创建之初,它的大小已经计入了num_bytes_allocated_,所以这次虽然分配了新的对象,但num_bytes_allocated_没必要增加。

    那么紧接着就来了一个问题:为什么TLAB在创建之初就要将大小计入num_bytes_allocated_呢?可是此时TLAB明明还没有被使用。这实际上是一个空间换时间的策略。以下是当时这笔改动的commit message,通过事先将大小计入num_bytes_allocated_从而不必要每次分配都更新它,减少针对num_bytes_allocated_的原子操作,提高性能。代价就是会导致num_bytes_allocated_略大于真实使用的字节数。

  2. 如果当前线程TLAB区域的剩余空间无法容纳下这次分配的对象,则为当前线程创建一个新的TLAB。在这种情况下,新分配出来的TLAB大小需要计入num_bytes_allocated_,因此new_num_bytes_allocated = num_bytes_allocated_before + bytes_tl_bulk_allocated。

2. concurrent_start_bytes_的计算过程

art/runtime/gc/heap.cc

2573 collector::GcType Heap::CollectGarbageInternal(collector::GcType gc_type,

2674   // Collect cleared references.

2676   // Grow the heap so that we know when to perform the next GC.
2677   GrowForUtilization(collector, bytes_allocated_before_gc);
2678   LogGC(gc_cause, collector);
2679   FinishGC(self, gc_type);
2680   // Actually enqueue all cleared references. Do this after the GC has officially finished since
2681   // otherwise we can deadlock.
2682   clear->Run(self);

2684   // Inform DDMS that a GC completed.
2685   Dbg::GcDidFinish();
2686
2687   old_native_bytes_allocated_.store(GetNativeBytes());
2688
2689   // Unload native libraries for class unloading. We do this after calling FinishGC to prevent
2690   // deadlocks in case the JNI_OnUnload function does allocations.
2691   {
2692     ScopedObjectAccess soa(self);
2693     soa.Vm()->UnloadNativeLibraries();
2694   }
2695   return gc_type;
2696 }

CollectGarbageInternal是HeapTaskDaemon线程执行GC时需要调用的函数。其中2671行将执行真正的GC,而concurrent_start_bytes_的计算则在2677行的GrowForUtilization函数中。

3598       remaining_bytes = std::max(remaining_bytes, kMinConcurrentRemainingBytes);
3599       size_t target_footprint = target_footprint_.load(std::memory_order_relaxed);
3600       if (UNLIKELY(remaining_bytes > target_footprint)) {
3601         // A never going to happen situation that from the estimated allocation rate we will exceed
3602         // the applications entire footprint with the given estimated allocation rate. Schedule
3603         // another GC nearly straight away.
3604         remaining_bytes = std::min(kMinConcurrentRemainingBytes, target_footprint);
3605       }
3606       DCHECK_LE(target_footprint_.load(std::memory_order_relaxed), GetMaxMemory());
3607       // Start a concurrent GC when we get close to the estimated remaining bytes. When the
3608       // allocation rate is very high, remaining_bytes could tell us that we should start a GC
3609       // right away.
3610       concurrent_start_bytes_ = std::max(target_footprint - remaining_bytes, bytes_allocated);
3611     }
3612   }
3613 }

concurrent_start_bytes_的计算分为两个步骤:

  1. 计算出target_size,一个仅具有指导意义的最大可分配字节数。

  2. 根据target_size计算出下一次GC的触发水位concurrent_start_bytes_。

2.1 target_size的计算过程

2.1.1 Sticky GC

kGcTypeSticky是分代GC下的一种GC类型,表示只针对两次GC时间内新分配的对象进行回收,也可以理解为Young-generation GC。如果gc_type为kGcTypeSticky,则执行如下过程:

art/runtime/gc/heap.cc

3562     // If we have freed enough memory, shrink the heap back down.
3563     const size_t adjusted_max_free = static_cast<size_t>(max_free_ * multiplier);
3564     if (bytes_allocated + adjusted_max_free < target_footprint) {
3565       target_size = bytes_allocated + adjusted_max_free;
3566       grow_bytes = max_free_;
3567     } else {
3568       target_size = std::max(bytes_allocated, target_footprint);
3569       // The same whether jank perceptible or not; just avoid the adjustment.
3570       grow_bytes = 0;
3571     }

max_free_的本意是target_size与已分配内存间可允许的最大差异,差异过小会导致GC频繁,差异过大则又会延迟下一次GC的到来,目前很多设备将这个值设为8M,min_free_设为512K。其实针对RAM超过6G的大内存设备,Google建议可以提高min_free_,用空间换时间获取更好的GC性能。multiplier的引入主要是为了优化前台应用,默认的前台multipiler为2,这样可以在下次GC前有更多的空间分配对象。以下是引入multipiler的代码的commit message,增大free的空间自然就降低了利用率。

  1. 当bytes_allocated + adjusted_max_free < target_footprint时,说明这次GC释放了很多空间,因此可以适当地降低下次GC的触发水位。

  2. 如果bytes_allocated + adjusted_max_free ≥ target_footprint,则取target_footprint和bytes_allocated中的较大值作为target_size。

    这种情况这次GC释放的空间不多。当target_footprint较大时,即便bytes_allocated逼近target_footprint也不增大target_size,是因为当前GC为Sticky GC(又可理解为Young-generation GC),如果它释放的空间不多,接下来还可以采用Full GC来更彻底地回收。换言之,只有等Full GC回收完,才能决定将GC的水位提升,因为这时已经尝试了所有的回收策略。

    当bytes_allocated较大时,说明在GC过程中新申请的对象空间大于GC释放的空间(因为并发,所以申请和释放可以同步进行)。这样一来,最终计算的水位值将会小于bytes_allocated,那岂不是下一次调用new分配对象时必然会阻塞?实则不然。因为不论是target_size还是concurrent_start_bytes_,他们都只有指导意义而无法实际限制堆内存的分配。对于CC Collector而言,唯一限制堆内存分配的只有growth_limit_。不过水位值小于bytes_allocated倒是会使得下一次对象分配成功后立马触发一轮新的GC。

2.1.2 Non-sticky GC

art/runtime/gc/heap.cc

3526   if (gc_type != collector::kGcTypeSticky) {
3527     // Grow the heap for non sticky GC.
3528     uint64_t delta = bytes_allocated * (1.0 / GetTargetHeapUtilization() - 1.0);
3529     DCHECK_LE(delta, std::numeric_limits<size_t>::max()) << "bytes_allocated=" << bytes_allocated
3530         << " target_utilization_=" << target_utilization_;
3531     grow_bytes = std::min(delta, static_cast<uint64_t>(max_free_));
3532     grow_bytes = std::max(grow_bytes, static_cast<uint64_t>(min_free_));
3533     target_size = bytes_allocated + static_cast<uint64_t>(grow_bytes * multiplier);
3534     next_gc_type_ = collector::kGcTypeSticky;
3535   }

首先会根据目标的利用率计算出新的delta,然后将delta与min_free_和max_free_进行比较,使得最终的grow_bytes落在[min_free_,max_free_]之间。target_size的计算还需考虑multipiler的影响,这样会降低前台应用的堆利用率,从而留有更多空间进行分配(降低GC的频率,代价就是内存资源向前台应用倾斜)。以下是一部手机的堆配置,其中数值可做参考。

2.2 concurrent_start_bytes_的计算

art/runtime/gc/heap.cc

3585     if (IsGcConcurrent()) {
3586       const uint64_t freed_bytes = current_gc_iteration_.GetFreedBytes() +
3587           current_gc_iteration_.GetFreedLargeObjectBytes() +
3588           current_gc_iteration_.GetFreedRevokeBytes();
3589       // Bytes allocated will shrink by freed_bytes after the GC runs, so if we want to figure out
3590       // how many bytes were allocated during the GC we need to add freed_bytes back on.
3591       CHECK_GE(bytes_allocated + freed_bytes, bytes_allocated_before_gc);
3592       const size_t bytes_allocated_during_gc = bytes_allocated + freed_bytes -
3593           bytes_allocated_before_gc;
3594       // Calculate when to perform the next ConcurrentGC.
3595       // Estimate how many remaining bytes we will have when we need to start the next GC.
3596       size_t remaining_bytes = bytes_allocated_during_gc;
3597       remaining_bytes = std::min(remaining_bytes, kMaxConcurrentRemainingBytes);
3598       remaining_bytes = std::max(remaining_bytes, kMinConcurrentRemainingBytes);
3599       size_t target_footprint = target_footprint_.load(std::memory_order_relaxed);
3600       if (UNLIKELY(remaining_bytes > target_footprint)) {
3601         // A never going to happen situation that from the estimated allocation rate we will exceed
3602         // the applications entire footprint with the given estimated allocation rate. Schedule
3603         // another GC nearly straight away.
3604         remaining_bytes = std::min(kMinConcurrentRemainingBytes, target_footprint);
3605       }
3606       DCHECK_LE(target_footprint_.load(std::memory_order_relaxed), GetMaxMemory());
3607       // Start a concurrent GC when we get close to the estimated remaining bytes. When the
3608       // allocation rate is very high, remaining_bytes could tell us that we should start a GC
3609       // right away.
3610       concurrent_start_bytes_ = std::max(target_footprint - remaining_bytes, bytes_allocated);
3611     }

首先需要计算出在GC过程中新分配的对象大小,记为bytes_allocated_during_gc。然后将它与kMinConcurrentRemainingBytes和kMaxConcurrentRemainingBytes进行比较,使得最终的grow_bytes落在[kMinConcurrentRemainingBytes,kMaxConcurrentRemainingBytes]之间。

art/runtime/gc/heap.cc

108 // Minimum amount of remaining bytes before a concurrent GC is triggered.
109 static constexpr size_t kMinConcurrentRemainingBytes = 128 * KB;
110 static constexpr size_t kMaxConcurrentRemainingBytes = 512 * KB;

最终concurrent_start_bytes_的计算如下。之所以需要用target_footprint减去remaining_bytes,是因为在理论意义上,target_footprint_代表当前堆的最大可分配字节数。而由于是同步GC,回收的过程中可能会有其他线程依然在分配。所以为了保证本次GC的顺利进行,需要将这段时间分配的内存空间预留出来。

art/runtime/gc/heap.cc

concurrent_start_bytes_ = std::max(target_footprint - remaining_bytes, bytes_allocated);

不过需要注意的是,上面阐述的理由仅局限在理论意义上,就像target_footprint_和concurrent_start_bytes_只具有指导意义一样。所以即便下一次GC过程中分配的内存超过了预留的空间,也并不会出现内存分配不出来而等待的情况。
