ReentrantLock

Lock

Lock是locks包内的一个接口。本身没什么很神奇的地方,就只是一个接口而已。通过这个也更能加深对面向接口编程的理解。先设计好接口,然后实现其具体的功能。

ReentrantLock

Lock的一个重要实现,可重入锁。先看看可重入锁的结构。

可以看到1.5版本的ReentrantLock本身只有一个sync属性。而这个内部静态类属性在构造方法里被初始化。两个构造方法,指定了是否是公平锁。

    public ReentrantLock() {
        sync = new NonfairSync();
    }

    public ReentrantLock(boolean fair) {
        sync = fair ? new FairSync() : new NonfairSync();
    }

而Sync这个类是继承的AQS,AQS继承了AOS。AOS中只有一个thread一个属性。

public abstract class AbstractOwnableSynchronizer
    implements java.io.Serializable {

    /** Use serial ID even though all fields transient. */
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 3737899427754241961L;

    /**
     * Empty constructor for use by subclasses.
     */
    protected AbstractOwnableSynchronizer() { }

    /**
     * The current owner of exclusive mode synchronization.
     */
    private transient Thread exclusiveOwnerThread;

    /**
     * Sets the thread that currently owns exclusive access.
     * A {@code null} argument indicates that no thread owns access.
     * This method does not otherwise impose any synchronization or
     * {@code volatile} field accesses.
     * @param thread the owner thread
     */
    protected final void setExclusiveOwnerThread(Thread thread) {
        exclusiveOwnerThread = thread;
    }

    /**
     * Returns the thread last set by {@code setExclusiveOwnerThread},
     * or {@code null} if never set.  This method does not otherwise
     * impose any synchronization or {@code volatile} field accesses.
     * @return the owner thread
     */
    protected final Thread getExclusiveOwnerThread() {
        return exclusiveOwnerThread;
    }
}

而AQS的代码就比较多,但是也是有迹可循,他本身有一个Node内部类。同时还有tail、head等节点。再加上一个核心的volatile标识的state字段。

Node的定义如下,大致为一个双向链表,同时包含一个线程属性和一个waitStatus状态。

    static final class Node {
        /** Marker to indicate a node is waiting in shared mode */
        static final Node SHARED = new Node();
        /** Marker to indicate a node is waiting in exclusive mode */
        static final Node EXCLUSIVE = null;

        /** waitStatus value to indicate thread has cancelled */
        static final int CANCELLED =  1;
        /** waitStatus value to indicate successor's thread needs unparking */
        static final int SIGNAL    = -1;
        /** waitStatus value to indicate thread is waiting on condition */
        static final int CONDITION = -2;
        /**
         * waitStatus value to indicate the next acquireShared should
         * unconditionally propagate
         */
        static final int PROPAGATE = -3;

        /**
         * Status field, taking on only the values:
         *   SIGNAL:     The successor of this node is (or will soon be)
         *               blocked (via park), so the current node must
         *               unpark its successor when it releases or
         *               cancels. To avoid races, acquire methods must
         *               first indicate they need a signal,
         *               then retry the atomic acquire, and then,
         *               on failure, block.
         *   CANCELLED:  This node is cancelled due to timeout or interrupt.
         *               Nodes never leave this state. In particular,
         *               a thread with cancelled node never again blocks.
         *   CONDITION:  This node is currently on a condition queue.
         *               It will not be used as a sync queue node
         *               until transferred, at which time the status
         *               will be set to 0. (Use of this value here has
         *               nothing to do with the other uses of the
         *               field, but simplifies mechanics.)
         *   PROPAGATE:  A releaseShared should be propagated to other
         *               nodes. This is set (for head node only) in
         *               doReleaseShared to ensure propagation
         *               continues, even if other operations have
         *               since intervened.
         *   0:          None of the above
         *
         * The values are arranged numerically to simplify use.
         * Non-negative values mean that a node doesn't need to
         * signal. So, most code doesn't need to check for particular
         * values, just for sign.
         *
         * The field is initialized to 0 for normal sync nodes, and
         * CONDITION for condition nodes.  It is modified using CAS
         * (or when possible, unconditional volatile writes).

        volatile int waitStatus;

        }
    }

NonfairSync非公平锁

了解了上述的AQS、Node、Sync等类定义后再来看非公平锁的代码实现就会方便很多,通过ReentrantLock的构造器实例化了NonfairSync后,调用ReentrantLock的lock方法,实际是进入了sync的lock方法,既NonfairSync的lock方法。

        // NonfairSync
        final void lock() {
            // CAS设置AQS的state为1
            if (compareAndSetState(0, 1))
                // 成功后设置AOS的thread为当前线程
                setExclusiveOwnerThread(Thread.currentThread());
            // 进入acquire
            else
                acquire(1);
        }

        // FairSync
        final void lock() {
            acquire(1);
        }

如果设置成功,也就是加锁成功。既将state成功设置为了1 那更好奇的是如果没加锁成功,后续会怎么做,acquire是AQS的一个模板方法,定义如下。

    public final void acquire(int arg) {
        if (!tryAcquire(arg) &&
            acquireQueued(addWaiter(Node.EXCLUSIVE), arg))
            selfInterrupt();
    }

    public final void acquireInterruptibly(int arg)
            throws InterruptedException {
        if (Thread.interrupted())
            throw new InterruptedException();
        if (!tryAcquire(arg))
            doAcquireInterruptibly(arg);
    }

其中tryAcquire是由子类具体实现,acquireQueued和addWaiter是由AQS提供,此方法可以结合另外一个acquireInterruptibly一起查看。更易理解。同时也可结合FairSync的lock方法一起阅读。 可以看到,公平锁和非公平锁一个区别是lock时,非公平锁会一上来就尝试CAS state状态。而公平锁会都入AQS的模板方法。下面是公平锁和非公平锁的又一个不同点。

        // FairSync
        protected final boolean tryAcquire(int acquires) {
            final Thread current = Thread.currentThread();
            int c = getState();
            if (c == 0) {
                // 和非公平锁的区别点,(如果AQS里head不是末尾节点并且后一个节点里的线程不是当前线程。取反)。也就是队列中无节点了或者head后一个线程是自己才会尝试设置state。
                if (!hasQueuedPredecessors() &&
                    compareAndSetState(0, acquires)) {
                    setExclusiveOwnerThread(current);
                    return true;
                }
            }
            // 可重入的实现,state=state+acquire
            else if (current == getExclusiveOwnerThread()) {
                int nextc = c + acquires;
                if (nextc < 0)
                    throw new Error("Maximum lock count exceeded");
                setState(nextc);
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }

        public final boolean hasQueuedPredecessors() {
        // The correctness of this depends on head being initialized
        // before tail and on head.next being accurate if the current
        // thread is first in queue.
        Node t = tail; // Read fields in reverse initialization order
        Node h = head;
        Node s;
        return h != t &&
            ((s = h.next) == null || s.thread != Thread.currentThread());}
        // NonfairSync
        protected final boolean tryAcquire(int acquires) {
            return nonfairTryAcquire(acquires);
        }

        final boolean nonfairTryAcquire(int acquires) {
            final Thread current = Thread.currentThread();
            int c = getState();
            if (c == 0) {
                if (compareAndSetState(0, acquires)) {
                    setExclusiveOwnerThread(current);
                    return true;
                }
            }
            else if (current == getExclusiveOwnerThread()) {
                int nextc = c + acquires;
                if (nextc < 0) // overflow
                    throw new Error("Maximum lock count exceeded");
                setState(nextc);
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }

如果acquire失败后,走到模板方法的addWaiter和acquireQueued中,AQS中实现如下。

    private Node addWaiter(Node mode) {
        Node node = new Node(Thread.currentThread(), mode);
        // Try the fast path of enq; backup to full enq on failure
        Node pred = tail;
        if (pred != null) {
            node.prev = pred;
            if (compareAndSetTail(pred, node)) {
                pred.next = node;
                return node;
            }
        }
        enq(node);
        return node;
    }

    private Node enq(final Node node) {
        for (;;) {
            Node t = tail;
            if (t == null) { // Must initialize
                if (compareAndSetHead(new Node()))
                    tail = head;
            } else {
                node.prev = t;
                if (compareAndSetTail(t, node)) {
                    t.next = node;
                    return t;
                }
            }
        }
    }

addWaiter中并无太多逻辑,只是将当前线程组成节点放入链表中,以及head和tail的初始化。

    final boolean acquireQueued(final Node node, int arg) {
        boolean failed = true;
        try {
            boolean interrupted = false;
            for (;;) {
                final Node p = node.predecessor();
                if (p == head && tryAcquire(arg)) {
                    setHead(node);
                    p.next = null; // help GC
                    failed = false;
                    return interrupted;
                }
                if (shouldParkAfterFailedAcquire(p, node) &&
                    parkAndCheckInterrupt())
                    interrupted = true;
            }
        } finally {
            if (failed)
                cancelAcquire(node);
        }
    }

真正的重头逻辑再acquireQueued中。

   final boolean acquireQueued(final Node node, int arg) {
        boolean failed = true;
        try {
            boolean interrupted = false;
            for (;;) {
                // 当前节点的前一个节点
                final Node p = node.predecessor();
                // 如果前一个节点是头节点,尝试获取锁
                if (p == head && tryAcquire(arg)) {
                    setHead(node);
                    p.next = null; // help GC
                    failed = false;
                    return interrupted;
                }
                // 如果不是头节点或者获取锁失败
                if (shouldParkAfterFailedAcquire(p, node) &&
                    parkAndCheckInterrupt())
                    interrupted = true;
            }
        } finally {
            if (failed)
                cancelAcquire(node);
        }
    }

   private static boolean shouldParkAfterFailedAcquire(
        Node pred,
        Node node) {
        int ws = pred.waitStatus;
        if (ws == Node.SIGNAL)
            /*
             * This node has already set status asking a release
             * to signal it, so it can safely park.
             */
            return true;
        // 跳过CANCELED状态的节点    
        if (ws > 0) {
            /*
             * Predecessor was cancelled. Skip over predecessors and
             * indicate retry.
             */
            do {
                node.prev = pred = pred.prev;
            } while (pred.waitStatus > 0);
            pred.next = node;
        } else {
            /*
             * waitStatus must be 0 or PROPAGATE.  Indicate that we
             * need a signal, but don't park yet.  Caller will need to
             * retry to make sure it cannot acquire before parking.
             */
            compareAndSetWaitStatus(pred, ws, Node.SIGNAL);
        }
        return false;
    }

    private final boolean parkAndCheckInterrupt() {
        LockSupport.park(this);
        return Thread.interrupted();
    }

在parkAndcheckInterrupt方法中,我们终于看到了线程等待的关键代码。LockSupport.park

跟完lock的源码,再看看unlock方法。

        public final boolean release(int arg) {
            if (tryRelease(arg)) {
                Node h = head;
                if (h != null && h.waitStatus != 0)
                    unparkSuccessor(h);
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }

        protected final boolean tryRelease(int releases) {
            int c = getState() - releases;
            if (Thread.currentThread() != getExclusiveOwnerThread())
                throw new IllegalMonitorStateException();
            boolean free = false;
            if (c == 0) {
                free = true;
                setExclusiveOwnerThread(null);
            }
            setState(c);
            return free;
        }

        private void unparkSuccessor(Node node) {
            /*
             * If status is negative (i.e., possibly needing signal) try
             * to clear in anticipation of signalling.  It is OK if this
             * fails or if status is changed by waiting thread.
             */
            int ws = node.waitStatus;
            if (ws < 0)
                compareAndSetWaitStatus(node, ws, 0);

            /*
             * Thread to unpark is held in successor, which is normally
             * just the next node.  But if cancelled or apparently null,
             * traverse backwards from tail to find the actual
             * non-cancelled successor.
             */
            Node s = node.next;
            if (s == null || s.waitStatus > 0) {
                s = null;
                for (Node t = tail; t != null && t != node; t = t.prev)
                    if (t.waitStatus <= 0)
                        s = t;
            }
            if (s != null)
                LockSupport.unpark(s.thread);
        }

加锁的代码看完后,再看释放锁的代码就很简单,设置state递减,如果到0,跳过canceled状态的唤醒后面一个节点上的线程。也可以看出来,每有一个lock,就必须要有一个unlock与之对应。这样才能成功的释放锁资源。

FairSync公平锁

由非公平锁的源码可以得知,其两者的差别就在于lock时非公平锁直接CAS state状态。且tryAcquire时公平锁必须是头节点的后一个节点才能尝试CAS,非公平锁则无此条件。
