Netty:EventLoopGroup

http://blog.csdn.net/bdmh/article/details/49945765

Group：群组，Loop：循环，Event：事件，这几个东西联在一起，相比大家也大概明白它的用途了。

Netty内部都是通过线程在处理各种数据，EventLoopGroup就是用来管理调度他们的，注册Channel，管理他们的生命周期，下面就来看看EventLoopGroup是怎样工作的。

在，当我们启动客户端或者服务端时，都要声明一个Group对象

 

EventLoopGroup group = new NioEventLoopGroup();

这里我们就以NioEventLoopGroup来说明。先看一下它的继承关系

 

 

NioEventLoopGroup extends MultithreadEventLoopGroup extends MultithreadEventExecutorGroup

看看NioEventLoopGroup的构造函数

 

 

public NioEventLoopGroup() {
    this(0);
}
//他会连续调用内部的构造函数，直到用下面的构造去执行父类的构造
//nThreads此时为0，马上就会提到这个参数的用处
public NioEventLoopGroup(
        int nThreads, Executor executor, final SelectorProvider selectorProvider) {
    super(nThreads, executor, selectorProvider);
}

基类MultithreadEventLoopGroup的构造

 

 

protected MultithreadEventLoopGroup(int nThreads, ThreadFactory threadFactory, Object... args) {
    super(nThreads == 0 ? DEFAULT_EVENT_LOOP_THREADS : nThreads, threadFactory, args);
}
//nThreads：内部线程数，如果为0，就取默认值，通常我们会设置为处理器个数*2
DEFAULT_EVENT_LOOP_THREADS = Math.max(1, SystemPropertyUtil.getInt(
        "io.netty.eventLoopThreads", Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors() * 2));

继续调用再上一级的MultithreadEventExecutorGroup的构造

 

 

//这里会根据nThreads创建执行者数组
private final EventExecutor[] children;

protected MultithreadEventExecutorGroup(int nThreads, Executor executor, Object... args) {
    if (nThreads <= 0) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException(String.format("nThreads: %d (expected: > 0)", nThreads));
    }

    if (executor == null) {
        executor = new ThreadPerTaskExecutor(newDefaultThreadFactory());
    }
//这里创建EventExecutor数组对象
    children = new EventExecutor[nThreads];
    if (isPowerOfTwo(children.length)) {
        chooser = new PowerOfTwoEventExecutorChooser();
    } else {
        chooser = new GenericEventExecutorChooser();
    }
//此处循环children数组，来创建内部的NioEventLoop对象
    for (int i = 0; i < nThreads; i ++) {
        boolean success = false;
        try {
            //newChild是abstract方法，运行期会执行具体的实例对象的重载
            children[i] = newChild(executor, args);
            success = true;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO: Think about if this is a good exception type
            throw new IllegalStateException("failed to create a child event loop", e);
        } finally {
            //如果没有成功，做关闭处理
            if (!success) {
                for (int j = 0; j < i; j ++) {
                    children[j].shutdownGracefully();
                }

                for (int j = 0; j < i; j ++) {
                    EventExecutor e = children[j];
                    try {
                        while (!e.isTerminated()) {
                            e.awaitTermination(Integer.MAX_VALUE, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
                        }
                    } catch (InterruptedException interrupted) {
                        // Let the caller handle the interruption.
                        Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
                        break;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

    ......
}

因为我们最初创建的是NioEventLoopGroup对象，所以newChild会执行NioEventLoopGroup的newChild方法，创建NioEventLoop对象。

 

 

@Override
protected EventLoop newChild(Executor executor, Object... args) throws Exception {
    return new NioEventLoop(this, executor, (SelectorProvider) args[0]);
}

看看NioEventLoop的继承关系

 

 

NioEventLoop extends SingleThreadEventLoop extends SingleThreadEventExecutor

NioEventLoop通过自己的构造行数，一直调用到SingleThreadEventExecutor的构造

 

 

protected SingleThreadEventExecutor(EventExecutorGroup parent, Executor executor, boolean addTaskWakesUp) {
    super(parent);

    if (executor == null) {
        throw new NullPointerException("executor");
    }

    this.addTaskWakesUp = addTaskWakesUp;
    this.executor = executor;
    taskQueue = newTaskQueue();
}

至此，Group和内部的Loop对象以及Executor就创建完毕，那么他们是什么时候被调用的呢？就是在服务端bind和客户端connect时。

 

服务端的bind方法执行的是AbstractBootstrap的bind方法，bind方法中先会调用validate()方法检查是否有group

 

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public B validate() {
    if (group == null) {
        throw new IllegalStateException("group not set");
    }
    if (channelFactory == null) {
        throw new IllegalStateException("channel or channelFactory not set");
    }
    return (B) this;
}

所以，假如初始时，没有设置Bootstrap的group的话，就会报错。

 

最终bind调用doBind，然后调用doBind0，启动一个Runnable线程

private static void doBind0(
        final ChannelFuture regFuture, final Channel channel,
        final SocketAddress localAddress, final ChannelPromise promise) {

    // This method is invoked before channelRegistered() is triggered.  Give user handlers a chance to set up
    // the pipeline in its channelRegistered() implementation.
    channel.eventLoop().execute(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            if (regFuture.isSuccess()) {
                channel.bind(localAddress, promise).addListener(ChannelFutureListener.CLOSE_ON_FAILURE);
            } else {
                promise.setFailure(regFuture.cause());
            }
        }
    });
}

我们这里，channel.eventLoop()得到的是NioEventLoop对象，所以执行NioEventLoop的run方法，开始线程运行。

 

我们在创建Bootstrap初期，会调用它的group方法，绑定一个group，这样，一个循环就开始运行了。
