一、问题现象
1、界面定住,没有任何刷新,所有输入事件无效,包括power key
2、adb shell可以连接并操作手机
3、手机的data和sdcard存储空间已满
4、watchdog没有重启system server
二、解决方案
通过初步分析、深入分析(具体分析过程和关键代码及log在下面)我们知道了问题的原因:
1、monkey测试的过程中起了bugreport,并将bugreport输出到stdout的log通过同步pipe循环读取出来然后write到sdcard的文件中,但是由于sdcard空间满了,write的时候发生了IO error导致monkey异常跳出了读取同步pipe的流程,由于bugreport还没有将log输出完毕所以会一直等待,而monkey则继续运行。
2、bugreport起来之后通过set property的方式触发了dumpstate去获取log,然后通过同步local socket(以下为了描述方便简短起见简称socket)与dumpstate建立连接,将dumpstate通过socket输出的log读取出来写到stdout。
3、dumpstate起来之后会首先将与bugreport的socket通过dup2重定向到stdout,然后执行一系列的抓取log信息的动作,包括cat proc节点、执行dumpsys batterystats等,这些动作都是通过run command的方式起的即fork一个进程,然后执行execvp,fork会继承dumpstate的文件描述符,所以起dumpsys batterystats之后dumpsys中的stdout就是与bugreport通信的socket,dumpsys batterystats会将stdout 文件描述符通过binder传递到system server中。
4、binder driver负责在system server进程中重新分配一个文件描述符来指向与bugreport通信的socket,system server收到dump batterystats的请求后开始把信息输出到bugreport的socket,由于bugreport被write block,导致system server输出的log无法被读取,从而引起system server的dump thread拿着batterystats的一个lock而block了进程内多个其他thread。
5、monkey继续运行向system server发起了dumpsys meminfo的请求,由于dump batterystats的线程拿着一个关键的lock没有释放,导致dumpsys meminfo一直无法得到执行而block了monkey主线程。
6、watchdog线程检测到system server被block之后开始执行相关逻辑,其中就有调用IActivityController的systemNotResponding方法,这个IActivityController是monkey注册的,所有就会跨进程调用到了monkey端,monkey的binder thread收到这个请求之后开始执行,但是执行的过程中需要monkey主线dump完需要的信息后notify它,由于monkey主线程dumpsys meminfo的过程中block,所以导致watchdog线程也被block而无法kill system server。
针对问题的原因,给出以下解决方案:
解开死锁问题的根本死结,当monkey向sdcard写log的时候,如果发生IO error,我们捕获它并继续将monkey起的bugreport的输出读完,从而使system server的dump线程释放持有的lock,使其他线程继续正常工作,dumpsys、dumpstate、cat、bugreport等都能完成自己的同步输入输出,monkey主线程也会恢复,整个系统恢复正常。

带着问题与朴老师还有明浩兄沟通,明浩兄给出的结论是同步IO操作,如果读端没有将写端写入到buffer或者写端自带buffer中的数据读取完,一旦写端将buffer写满仍然需要继续写或者写端自带buffer没人读,写端就会block,明浩兄自己模拟出了类似的写端调用栈:
kernel: __switch_to+0x70/0x7c
kernel: sock_alloc_send_pskb+0x25c/0x314
kernel: sock_alloc_send_skb+0x18/0x24
kernel: unix_stream_sendmsg+0x15c/0x340
kernel: sock_aio_write+0x124/0x140
kernel: do_sync_write+0x74/0xa0
kernel: vfs_write+0xd4/0x178
kernel: SyS_write+0x44/0x74
kernel: cpu_switch_to+0x48/0x4c
读端的调用栈:
[<0000000000000000>] __switch_to+0x70/0x7c
[<0000000000000000>] __skb_recv_datagram+0x408/0x49c
[<0000000000000000>] skb_recv_datagram+0x38/0x5c
[<0000000000000000>] unix_accept+0x6c/0x154
[<0000000000000000>] SyS_accept4+0x104/0x1e0
[<0000000000000000>] el0_svc_naked+0x20/0x28
[<0000000000000000>] 0xffffffffffffffff
与此同时明浩兄还带来了两个好问题:
1.读端的线程是哪个?这时候在干什么?没有找到对应的bugreport.
2.watchdog为什么没有杀掉system_server呢?
当然还少不了建议的解决方案:
1.采用异步写.
2.读端要及时关闭socket.
问题就这样结束了吗?当然不能!
四、深入分析
首先解释明浩兄提出的第二个问题,watchdog为什么没有杀掉system_server呢?

mWatchdogWaiting置为false的条件是跑完runMonkeyCycles之后走到下面才设置false并notifyall,但是当前monkey的main thread也block了:

又看到了同步IO被block的调用栈,这次是读端block。那么问题就来了,读端是谁?为什么写端没有写?
接下来watchdog没有kill system server的问题就转变为monkey的主线程为什么会被block?导致不能及时的设置条件为false并notifyall从而使watchdog继续工作?
好了,再捋一捋,有点乱:
watchdog thread等待monkey的binder thread执行完systemNotResponding,monkey的binder thread又等着monkey的main thread执行完reportDumpsysMemInfo去notify自己,而reportDumpsysMemInfo的执行需要拿到一个BatteryStatsImpl实例的锁,但是BatteryStatsImpl实例的锁又被tid=84的binder thread拿着,也就是上面最早执行同步socket操作的thread,绕了一大圈发现这是一个连环死锁,最终死锁的关键还是这个tid=84的thread.
system server中dumpsys meminfo被block的trace:

仔细看这个traces,再仔细看这个traces,原来它在做dumpsys batterystats的操作,这个操作是谁发起的?
赶紧ps查看一下所有的dumpsys,发现有两个,一个是Z状态,僵尸了,一个是S状态。
Z状态?发生了啥?赶紧看看父进程是谁,发现是dumpstate,为啥dumpstate没有帮它儿子收尸?赶紧看代码:
原来dumpstate起了dumpsys batterystats之后如果waitpid等待超时就会通过kill来发送SIGTERM优雅的结束dumpsys batterystats,但是貌似它忘记了一件事情,就是再次waitpid替儿子收尸。。。太大意了,导致儿子变成僵尸!
但是尽管如此,处于僵尸状态的进程已经把占用的资源已经释放掉了,其中就包括文件描述符,所以还是解释不了thread 84为啥被block?
接着看dumpsys batterystats是如何调用system server去做dump操作的,继续看代码:
原来dumpsys把STDOUT传递给了system server去dump batterystats,但是上面dumpsys已经释放了所有文件资源,并且传递的是STDOUT,不应该block system server的thread 84啊?
带着这个问题继续烧脑,看源码,发现dumpstate是bugreport通过set property起的,然后通过socket与dumpstate建立连接,bugreport读取这个socket中的数据并write到标准输出,而dumpstate又通过dup2把与bugreport的socket重定向到了stdout:
run_command是通过先fork然后在子进程中用execvp的方式执行的dumpsys batterystats,这样dumpsys batterystats就继承了dumpstate的stdout,对应的就是与bugreport通信的socket,所以就算dumpsys进程的stdout被关闭也只会对这个socket的引用计数减1,现在这个socket对应的引用计数还有2,分别是dumpstate进程自己以及system server,因此dumpsys的Z状态不会中断system server的thread 84,所以问题的关键还是在于thread 84在向这个socket同步写数据,但是socket的另一端没有读。
我们知道socket的另一端是bugreport,但是它为什么没有及时的把socket中的数据读走呢?赶紧用debuggerd dump出来bugreport的调用栈,发现bugreport在往标准输出里面写数据的时候被block了:
backtrace:
#00 pc 000000000005fca4 /system/lib64/libc.so (write+4)
#01 pc 00000000000524dc /system/lib64/libc.so (__swrite+76)

bugreport往标准输出里面写数据时为什么会被block?
先通过ps看一下bugreport的父进程是谁,发现是monkey进程,那monkey进程为什么不把bugreport的输出读走?从上面我们知道monkey的主线程block在了dumpsys meminfo,看它的其他线程也没有调用bugreport的调用栈,那bugreport是怎么起来的?什么时候起来的?百思不得其解,通过一遍一遍的看代码以及出问题时sdcard没有空间的种种线索发现了以下可疑代码和一个推论:
monkey起bugreport的方式就是调用上面的commandLineReport函数,这个函数起了bugreport之后会通过同步pipe的方式读取bugreport的标准输出,正常情况下会一直读完,mRequestBugreport为true就会把这些数据写到sdcard指定的文件里。如果在向sdcard写入这些log数据的时候存储空间满了,就会发生IO exception,那么就会跳出readline的while循环,从而继续执行其他操作,导致bugreport在write的时候block,进一步导致system server的thread 84在write的时候block,因为bugreport无法读取socket中的数据。
monkey主线程跳出readline的while循环之后继续执行,然后执行到了dumpsys meminfo的操作,上面ps出来的另外一个S状态的dumpsys的父进程就是monkey,由于system server的thread 84拿着dumpsys meminfo线程需要的锁,所以monkey主线程也被block了,monkey主线程block导致system server的watchdog调用systemNotResponding一直无法返回而无法继续kill system server。
好了,分析到这里就回答完明浩兄的两个问题了,system server不被watchdog kill的原因,以及thread 84的同步socket的读端是谁也找到了,为什么不读的原因也找到了。
五、后续延伸
1、在发生问题时,通过进入到bugreport进程的proc的fd目录下,cat 1(stdout)整个系统就全部恢复了,原理如上
2、通过dumpsys batterystats|more可以使system server被block而引发watchdog重启,原理就是上面的分析
3、有测试的同学发现它们通过java代码写的模拟shell执行的调用logcat的代码时而有效,时而logcat起来之后没有响应,调用进程一直waitfor无法返回,原因就是它们调用的logcat命令在执行时有时手机里面的crash信息比较多导致同步pipe的buffer被用完,而他们的调用进程没有将同步pipe中的数据读出,导致logcat进程在同步写pipe的时候block,而他的调用进程一直在空waitfor,时而有效是因为手机里面crash信息比较少甚至没有,执行他这行代码后logcat进程不会因为数据太多而在write的时候被block,他们的具体代码如下:
String returnInfo = Utils.SHELL(new String[]{"sh", "-c", "logcat -d -s crashmonitor"});
if(returnInfo.contains("CRASH") == true){
Utils.LOG("Found crash.");
Utils.SHELL(new String[]{"sh", "-c", "logcat -v time -d > " + Utils.WORK_PATH + "logcat_crash.txt"});
}
public static String SHELL(String[] command){
Process p = null;
int status = 0;
String text = null;
BufferedInputStream in = null;
BufferedReader resultReader = null;
try{
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
status = p.waitFor();
if(status != 0){
throw new RuntimeException(String.format("Run shell command: %s, status: %s", command, status));
}
可以看到调用“Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);”之后直接waitfor了,没有管p的输出,正确的用法应该是:
public static String SHELL(String[] command){
Process p = null;
int status = 0;
String text = null;
BufferedInputStream in = null;
BufferedReader resultReader = null;
try{
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
in = new BufferedInputStream(p.getInputStream());
resultReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in, "UTF-8"));
String line;
while((line = resultReader.readLine()) != null){
text += line + "\n";
}
status = p.waitFor();
if(status != 0){
throw new RuntimeException(String.format("Run shell command: %s, status: %s", command, status));
}
4、问题是在L版本上发生,通过搜索和查看AOSP的最新master分支发现他们也提交了一些patch
首先Google重构了bugreport的代码,https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/124474/
Refactor of the bugreport code.
Implemented these changes:
Make this code C++.
- Avoid hangs by adding a timeout.
- Add the necessary TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY calls.
Restructure the code a bit.
为dumpstate的run command实现更好的超时和waitpid机制,解决上面没有收尸的问题,https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/128514/
Add better timeout mechanism for running commands.
移除无效dumpstate gzip压缩选项,https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/130384/
Remove -z option.
This option doesn't work with the current selinux protections and
doesn't serve much of a purpose. You can get the same results running
this:
dumpstate | gzip > /data/local/tmp/dump.txt.gz
为dumpstate的dump_file增加超时机制避免bugreport永远hang住,https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/134103/
Add timeout for dump_file.
It turns out dump_file is used on a number of /proc and system files.
In one case, the read of a file stalled and caused a bugreport to
hang forever. It's still possible if there is a kernel bug that this
could stall forever, but less likely.
Also, change the return type of nanotime to uint64_t.
Testing:
Created a named fifo and verified that dump_file fails with a timeout.
Created a large /data/anr/traces.txt to verify that large files still
dump properly and that the additional NONBLOCK parameter doesn't cause
a problem.
Created a dummy /data/tombstones/tombstone_00 to verify that the
dump of these files still works.
Compared a dump using the old dumpstate to the new dumpstate to verify
nothing obviously different.
https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/150928/
Don't use TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY on close in frameworks/native.
https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/142952/
dumpstate: add O_CLOEXEC
Add O_CLOEXEC to various file descriptor calls, to avoid
leaking file descriptors to dumpstate's child processes.
