经过前面几章的简单介绍，我们已经大致了解了jvm的启动框架和执行流程了。不过，这些都是些无关痛痒的问题，几行文字描述一下即可。
所以，今天我们从另一个角度来讲解jvm的一些东西，以便可以更多一点认知。即如题：jvm是如何找到对应的java方法，然后执行的呢？（但是执行太复杂，太重要，我们就不说了。我们单看如何找到对应的java方法吧）
1. 回顾核心变量JNIEnv的初始化
如上一篇系列文章中讲到的，jdk执行的核心方法，实际上也是调用jvm或者hotspot的接口方法实现的，这其中有个重要变量，供jdk使用。即：JNIEnv* env 。可见其重要性。我们再来回顾下它的初始化过程。
//实际上，我们可以通过前面对 JNIEnv **penv 的赋值中查到端倪： // hotspot/src/share/vm/prims/jni.cpp ... // 将jvm信息存储到 penv 中，以备外部使用 *(JNIEnv**)penv = thread->jni_environment(); ... // 而查看 jni_environment() 方法可知，其由一个类变量 _jni_environment 处理 // share/vm/runtime/thread.hpp // Returns the jni environment for this thread JNIEnv* jni_environment() { return &_jni_environment; } // 所以，我们只需找出 _jni_environment 是如何赋值初始化，即可知道如何获取这个关键变量的逻辑了。结果是，在创建JavaThread, 在进行初始化时，便会设置该值。 // share/vm/runtime/thread.cpp JavaThread::JavaThread(ThreadFunction entry_point, size_t stack_sz) : Thread() #if INCLUDE_ALL_GCS , _satb_mark_queue(&_satb_mark_queue_set), _dirty_card_queue(&_dirty_card_queue_set) #endif // INCLUDE_ALL_GCS { if (TraceThreadEvents) { tty->print_cr("creating thread %p", this); } // 初始化线程变量信息, 如 JNIEnv initialize(); _jni_attach_state = _not_attaching_via_jni; set_entry_point(entry_point); // Create the native thread itself. // %note runtime_23 os::ThreadType thr_type = os::java_thread; thr_type = entry_point == &compiler_thread_entry ? os::compiler_thread : os::java_thread; os::create_thread(this, thr_type, stack_sz); _safepoint_visible = false; // The _osthread may be NULL here because we ran out of memory (too many threads active). // We need to throw and OutOfMemoryError - however we cannot do this here because the caller // may hold a lock and all locks must be unlocked before throwing the exception (throwing // the exception consists of creating the exception object & initializing it, initialization // will leave the VM via a JavaCall and then all locks must be unlocked). // // The thread is still suspended when we reach here. Thread must be explicit started // by creator! Furthermore, the thread must also explicitly be added to the Threads list // by calling Threads:add. The reason why this is not done here, is because the thread // object must be fully initialized (take a look at JVM_Start) } // A JavaThread is a normal Java thread void JavaThread::initialize() { // Initialize fields // Set the claimed par_id to -1 (ie not claiming any par_ids) set_claimed_par_id(-1); set_saved_exception_pc(NULL); set_threadObj(NULL); _anchor.clear(); set_entry_point(NULL); // 取数jni_functions, 初始化到 _jni_environment set_jni_functions(jni_functions()); set_callee_target(NULL); set_vm_result(NULL); set_vm_result_2(NULL); set_vframe_array_head(NULL); set_vframe_array_last(NULL); set_deferred_locals(NULL); set_deopt_mark(NULL); set_deopt_nmethod(NULL); clear_must_deopt_id(); set_monitor_chunks(NULL); set_next(NULL); set_thread_state(_thread_new); #if INCLUDE_NMT set_recorder(NULL); #endif _terminated = _not_terminated; _privileged_stack_top = NULL; _array_for_gc = NULL; _suspend_equivalent = false; _in_deopt_handler = 0; _doing_unsafe_access = false; _stack_guard_state = stack_guard_unused; (void)const_cast<oop&>(_exception_oop = NULL); _exception_pc = 0; _exception_handler_pc = 0; _is_method_handle_return = 0; _jvmti_thread_state= NULL; _should_post_on_exceptions_flag = JNI_FALSE; _jvmti_get_loaded_classes_closure = NULL; _interp_only_mode = 0; _special_runtime_exit_condition = _no_async_condition; _pending_async_exception = NULL; _thread_stat = NULL; _thread_stat = new ThreadStatistics(); _blocked_on_compilation = false; _jni_active_critical = 0; _do_not_unlock_if_synchronized = false; _cached_monitor_info = NULL; _parker = Parker::Allocate(this) ; #ifndef PRODUCT _jmp_ring_index = 0; for (int ji = 0 ; ji < jump_ring_buffer_size ; ji++ ) { record_jump(NULL, NULL, NULL, 0); } #endif /* PRODUCT */ set_thread_profiler(NULL); if (FlatProfiler::is_active()) { // This is where we would decide to either give each thread it's own profiler // or use one global one from FlatProfiler, // or up to some count of the number of profiled threads, etc. ThreadProfiler* pp = new ThreadProfiler(); pp->engage(); set_thread_profiler(pp); } // Setup safepoint state info for this thread ThreadSafepointState::create(this); debug_only(_java_call_counter = 0); // JVMTI PopFrame support _popframe_condition = popframe_inactive; _popframe_preserved_args = NULL; _popframe_preserved_args_size = 0; pd_initialize(); } // Returns the function structure struct JNINativeInterface_* jni_functions() { #if INCLUDE_JNI_CHECK if (CheckJNICalls) return jni_functions_check(); #endif // INCLUDE_JNI_CHECK return &jni_NativeInterface; } // thread.hpp //JNI functiontable getter/setter for JVMTI jni function table interception API. void set_jni_functions(struct JNINativeInterface_* functionTable) { _jni_environment.functions = functionTable; }
所以，核心的初始化变成了 jni_NativeInterface 的具体值问题了。刚好我们可以通过这个方法去这个 JNIEnv 都定义了啥。这对于我们以后的分析工作有非常大的帮助。

以上就是 JNIEnv* env 变量的设值过程了，它借助于java线程的创建时机进行初始化。而后续的使用中，几乎都会仰仗它来运行，可见其重要性。
但总结一下，这里面提供的接口，实际上都是一些非常基础的操作，比如变量新建，初始化，异常处理，锁处理，native注册等。类型实际并不多。这也提示了我们一点，越是基础的东西，实际上越不会那么复杂。它更多的是做好抽象工作，打好基础，比什么都好。
2. main方法的查找实现
要谈其他方法，着实也太泛了。因为，你可以定义这个方法，他可以定义一个别的方法。这里面的特性就太难找了。但，对于每个java应用的启动，都会去加载main（）方法执行，所以，以这个main()方法的查找为出发点，定然能找到些端倪来。
我们先来看看main()的调用地方如何：
// share/bin/java.c // 加载 main 函数类 // 通过引入 JavaMain(), 接入java方法 // #define JNICALL __stdcall int JNICALL JavaMain(void * _args) { JavaMainArgs *args = (JavaMainArgs *)_args; int argc = args->argc; char **argv = args->argv; int mode = args->mode; char *what = args->what; // 一些jvm的调用实例，在之前的步骤中，通过加载相应动态链接方法，保存起来的 /** * ifn->CreateJavaVM = * (void *)GetProcAddress(handle, "JNI_CreateJavaVM"); * ifn->GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs = * (void *)GetProcAddress(handle, "JNI_GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs"); */ InvocationFunctions ifn = args->ifn; JavaVM *vm = 0; JNIEnv *env = 0; jclass mainClass = NULL; jclass appClass = NULL; // actual application class being launched jmethodID mainID; jobjectArray mainArgs; int ret = 0; jlong start, end; // collector RegisterThread(); /* Initialize the virtual machine */ start = CounterGet(); // 重点1：初始化jvm，失败则退出 // 此处会将重要变量 *env 进程初始化，从而使后续可用 if (!InitializeJVM(&vm, &env, &ifn)) { JLI_ReportErrorMessage(JVM_ERROR1); exit(1); } // jvm检查完毕，如果只是一些展示类请求，则展示信息后，退出jvm if (showSettings != NULL) { ShowSettings(env, showSettings); /** * 宏是神奇的操作，此处 *env 直接引用 #define CHECK_EXCEPTION_LEAVE(CEL_return_value) do { if ((*env)->ExceptionOccurred(env)) { JLI_ReportExceptionDescription(env); ret = (CEL_return_value); LEAVE(); } } while (JNI_FALSE) */ CHECK_EXCEPTION_LEAVE(1); } // 调用 LEAVE() 方法的目的在于主动销毁jvm线程 // 且退出当前方法调用，即 LEAVE() 后方法不再被执行 /* * Always detach the main thread so that it appears to have ended when * the application's main method exits. This will invoke the * uncaught exception handler machinery if main threw an * exception. An uncaught exception handler cannot change the * launcher's return code except by calling System.exit. * * Wait for all non-daemon threads to end, then destroy the VM. * This will actually create a trivial new Java waiter thread * named "DestroyJavaVM", but this will be seen as a different * thread from the one that executed main, even though they are * the same C thread. This allows mainThread.join() and * mainThread.isAlive() to work as expected. */ /** * * #define LEAVE() do { if ((*vm)->DetachCurrentThread(vm) != JNI_OK) { JLI_ReportErrorMessage(JVM_ERROR2); ret = 1; } if (JNI_TRUE) { (*vm)->DestroyJavaVM(vm); return ret; } } while (JNI_FALSE) */ if (printVersion || showVersion) { PrintJavaVersion(env, showVersion); CHECK_EXCEPTION_LEAVE(0); if (printVersion) { LEAVE(); } } /* If the user specified neither a class name nor a JAR file */ if (printXUsage || printUsage || what == 0 || mode == LM_UNKNOWN) { PrintUsage(env, printXUsage); CHECK_EXCEPTION_LEAVE(1); LEAVE(); } // 释放内存 FreeKnownVMs(); /* after last possible PrintUsage() */ if (JLI_IsTraceLauncher()) { end = CounterGet(); JLI_TraceLauncher("%ld micro seconds to InitializeJVM ", (long)(jint)Counter2Micros(end-start)); } /* At this stage, argc/argv have the application's arguments */ if (JLI_IsTraceLauncher()){ int i; printf("%s is '%s' ", launchModeNames[mode], what); printf("App's argc is %d ", argc); for (i=0; i < argc; i++) { printf(" argv[%2d] = '%s' ", i, argv[i]); } } ret = 1; /* * Get the application's main class. * * See bugid 5030265. The Main-Class name has already been parsed * from the manifest, but not parsed properly for UTF-8 support. * Hence the code here ignores the value previously extracted and * uses the pre-existing code to reextract the value. This is * possibly an end of release cycle expedient. However, it has * also been discovered that passing some character sets through * the environment has "strange" behavior on some variants of * Windows. Hence, maybe the manifest parsing code local to the * launcher should never be enhanced. * * Hence, future work should either: * 1) Correct the local parsing code and verify that the * Main-Class attribute gets properly passed through * all environments, * 2) Remove the vestages of maintaining main_class through * the environment (and remove these comments). * * This method also correctly handles launching existing JavaFX * applications that may or may not have a Main-Class manifest entry. */ // 重点2：加载 main 指定的class类 mainClass = LoadMainClass(env, mode, what); CHECK_EXCEPTION_NULL_LEAVE(mainClass); /* * In some cases when launching an application that needs a helper, e.g., a * JavaFX application with no main method, the mainClass will not be the * applications own main class but rather a helper class. To keep things * consistent in the UI we need to track and report the application main class. */ appClass = GetApplicationClass(env); NULL_CHECK_RETURN_VALUE(appClass, -1); /* * PostJVMInit uses the class name as the application name for GUI purposes, * for example, on OSX this sets the application name in the menu bar for * both SWT and JavaFX. So we'll pass the actual application class here * instead of mainClass as that may be a launcher or helper class instead * of the application class. */ // 加载main() 方法前执行初始化 PostJVMInit(env, appClass, vm); CHECK_EXCEPTION_LEAVE(1); /* * The LoadMainClass not only loads the main class, it will also ensure * that the main method's signature is correct, therefore further checking * is not required. The main method is invoked here so that extraneous java * stacks are not in the application stack trace. */ // 重点3：执行 main(args[]) java方法 // 获取main()方法id, main(String[] args) mainID = (*env)->GetStaticMethodID(env, mainClass, "main", "([Ljava/lang/String;)V"); CHECK_EXCEPTION_NULL_LEAVE(mainID); /* Build platform specific argument array */ // 构建args[] 参数 mainArgs = CreateApplicationArgs(env, argv, argc); CHECK_EXCEPTION_NULL_LEAVE(mainArgs); /* Invoke main method. */ // 调用java实现的main()方法 // XX:: 重要实现 (*env)->CallStaticVoidMethod(env, mainClass, mainID, mainArgs); /* * The launcher's exit code (in the absence of calls to * System.exit) will be non-zero if main threw an exception. */ ret = (*env)->ExceptionOccurred(env) == NULL ? 0 : 1; LEAVE(); }
JVM的初始化，我们在上篇系列文章中已窥得简要。这篇，我们就以 *env 作为入口进行。因为jvm初始化完成后，就会给 *env 的赋值。
2.1. GetStaticMethodID 的实现
而，加载main()方法，最核心的就是上面最后几行：
// 获取main()方法id, main(String[] args) mainID = (*env)->GetStaticMethodID(env, mainClass, "main", "([Ljava/lang/String;)V"); CHECK_EXCEPTION_NULL_LEAVE(mainID); /* Build platform specific argument array */ // 构建args[] 参数 mainArgs = CreateApplicationArgs(env, argv, argc); CHECK_EXCEPTION_NULL_LEAVE(mainArgs); /* Invoke main method. */ // 调用java实现的main()方法 // XX:: 重要实现 (*env)->CallStaticVoidMethod(env, mainClass, mainID, mainArgs); /* * The launcher's exit code (in the absence of calls to * System.exit) will be non-zero if main threw an exception. */ ret = (*env)->ExceptionOccurred(env) == NULL ? 0 : 1;
很明显，我们的目的就是看jvm如何找到main()方法，这也是执行main()逻辑的第一步工作。下面来细聊下，它使用的是 (*env)->GetStaticMethodID(), 而这个方法，在上一节中，我们可以看到其实现为：jni_GetStaticMethodID 。 所以，知道这个 jni_GetStaticMethodID 的实现就知道了如何查找java静态方法了。
// share/vm/prims/jni.cpp JNI_ENTRY(jmethodID, jni_GetStaticMethodID(JNIEnv *env, jclass clazz, const char *name, const char *sig)) JNIWrapper("GetStaticMethodID"); #ifndef USDT2 DTRACE_PROBE4(hotspot_jni, GetStaticMethodID__entry, env, clazz, name, sig); #else /* USDT2 */ HOTSPOT_JNI_GETSTATICMETHODID_ENTRY( env, (char *) clazz, (char *) name, (char *)sig); #endif /* USDT2 */ jmethodID ret = get_method_id(env, clazz, name, sig, true, thread); #ifndef USDT2 DTRACE_PROBE1(hotspot_jni, GetStaticMethodID__return, ret); #else /* USDT2 */ HOTSPOT_JNI_GETSTATICMETHODID_RETURN( (uintptr_t) ret); #endif /* USDT2 */ return ret; JNI_END
我们通过这个实现，能看到什么呢？好像什么也看不懂。实际上是因为，其中有太多的宏定义了，要想读懂这代码，必须将宏定义展开。而这些宏，基本都是是在 interfaceSupport.hpp 中定义的。
下面我们来看下 JNI_ENTRY|JNI_END 的定义拆解：
// share/vm/runtime/interfaceSupport.hpp // JNI_ENTRY 的定义，又依赖于 JNI_ENTRY_NO_PRESERVE 的定义 #define JNI_ENTRY(result_type, header) JNI_ENTRY_NO_PRESERVE(result_type, header) WeakPreserveExceptionMark __wem(thread); // JNI_ENTRY_NO_PRESERVE 的定义，又依赖于 VM_ENTRY_BASE 的定义 #define JNI_ENTRY_NO_PRESERVE(result_type, header) extern "C" { result_type JNICALL header { JavaThread* thread=JavaThread::thread_from_jni_environment(env); assert( !VerifyJNIEnvThread || (thread == Thread::current()), "JNIEnv is only valid in same thread"); ThreadInVMfromNative __tiv(thread); debug_only(VMNativeEntryWrapper __vew;) VM_ENTRY_BASE(result_type, header, thread) // VM_ENTRY_BASE 的定义 #define VM_ENTRY_BASE(result_type, header, thread) TRACE_CALL(result_type, header) HandleMarkCleaner __hm(thread); Thread* THREAD = thread; os::verify_stack_alignment(); /* begin of body */ // Close the routine and the extern "C" #define JNI_END } }
此时，如上的函数实现可以转换为：
extern "C" { jmethodID JNICALL header { JavaThread* thread=JavaThread::thread_from_jni_environment(env); assert( !VerifyJNIEnvThread || (thread == Thread::current()), "JNIEnv is only valid in same thread"); ThreadInVMfromNative __tiv(thread); debug_only(VMNativeEntryWrapper __vew;) TRACE_CALL(jmethodID, jni_GetStaticMethodID(JNIEnv *env, jclass clazz, const char *name, const char *sig)) HandleMarkCleaner __hm(thread); Thread* THREAD = thread; os::verify_stack_alignment(); WeakPreserveExceptionMark __wem(thread); // 默认为空 JNIWrapper("GetStaticMethodID"); #ifndef USDT2 DTRACE_PROBE4(hotspot_jni, GetStaticMethodID__entry, env, clazz, name, sig); #else /* USDT2 */ // 默认为空, 在 hotspot/src/share/vm/utilities/dtrace_usdt2_disabled.hpp 中定义 HOTSPOT_JNI_GETSTATICMETHODID_ENTRY( env, (char *) clazz, (char *) name, (char *)sig); #endif /* USDT2 */ // 核心查找方法 jmethodID ret = get_method_id(env, clazz, name, sig, true, thread); #ifndef USDT2 DTRACE_PROBE1(hotspot_jni, GetStaticMethodID__return, ret); #else /* USDT2 */ // 默认为空 HOTSPOT_JNI_GETSTATICMETHODID_RETURN( (uintptr_t) ret); #endif /* USDT2 */ return ret; } }
经过这一层层的宏展开，工作就变得清晰起来，重点在于 get_method_id() 了。
// jni.cpp 根据方法签名，找到方法id static jmethodID get_method_id(JNIEnv *env, jclass clazz, const char *name_str, const char *sig, bool is_static, TRAPS) { // %%%% This code should probably just call into a method in the LinkResolver // // The class should have been loaded (we have an instance of the class // passed in) so the method and signature should already be in the symbol // table.

In the normal system, this cache only // transitions from NULL to non-NULL which is safe because we use // release_set_methods_jmethod_ids() to advertise the new cache. // A partially constructed cache should never be seen by a racing // thread. We also use release_store_ptr() to save a new jmethodID // in the cache so a partially constructed jmethodID should never be // seen either. Cache reads of existing jmethodIDs proceed without a // lock, but cache writes of a new jmethodID requires uniqueness and // creation of the cache itself requires no leaks so a lock is // generally acquired in those two cases. // // If the RedefineClasses() API has been used, then this cache can // grow and we'll have transitions from non-NULL to bigger non-NULL. // Cache creation requires no leaks and we require safety between all // cache accesses and freeing of the old cache so a lock is generally // acquired when the RedefineClasses() API has been used. if (jmeths != NULL) { // the cache already exists if (!ik_h->idnum_can_increment()) { // the cache can't grow so we can just get the current values get_jmethod_id_length_value(jmeths, idnum, &length, &id); } else { // cache can grow so we have to be more careful if (Threads::number_of_threads() == 0 || SafepointSynchronize::is_at_safepoint()) { // we're single threaded or at a safepoint - no locking needed get_jmethod_id_length_value(jmeths, idnum, &length, &id); } else { MutexLocker ml(JmethodIdCreation_lock); get_jmethod_id_length_value(jmeths, idnum, &length, &id); } } } // implied else: // we need to allocate a cache so default length and id values are good if (jmeths == NULL || // no cache yet length <= idnum || // cache is too short id == NULL) { // cache doesn't contain entry // This function can be called by the VMThread so we have to do all // things that might block on a safepoint before grabbing the lock. // Otherwise, we can deadlock with the VMThread or have a cache // consistency issue.

查找 methodID的实现就挖到这里吧，拆不下去了，尴尬。
但有一点很明了，就是查找methodID是在mainClass实例中进行的。那么，mainClass又是如何查找到的，我们需要看下。这个要从 LoadMainClass()说起。
2.2. LoadMainClass 查找启动类
上一节我们找到了方法id, 但却未找到类。所以，得重头开始再来。
/* * Loads a class and verifies that the main class is present and it is ok to * call it for more details refer to the java implementation. */ static jclass LoadMainClass(JNIEnv *env, int mode, char *name) { jmethodID mid; jstring str; jobject result; jlong start, end; // sun/launcher/LauncherHelper jclass cls = GetLauncherHelperClass(env); NULL_CHECK0(cls); if (JLI_IsTraceLauncher()) { start = CounterGet(); } // checkAndLoadMain(String) 方法作为中间main()调用 NULL_CHECK0(mid = (*env)->GetStaticMethodID(env, cls, "checkAndLoadMain", "(ZILjava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/Class;")); str = NewPlatformString(env, name); CHECK_JNI_RETURN_0( result = (*env)->CallStaticObjectMethod( env, cls, mid, USE_STDERR, mode, str)); if (JLI_IsTraceLauncher()) { end = CounterGet(); printf("%ld micro seconds to load main class ", (long)(jint)Counter2Micros(end-start)); printf("----%s---- ", JLDEBUG_ENV_ENTRY); } return (jclass)result; } jclass GetLauncherHelperClass(JNIEnv *env) { if (helperClass == NULL) { // 查找 helplerClass, 并缓存 NULL_CHECK0(helperClass = FindBootStrapClass(env, "sun/launcher/LauncherHelper")); } return helperClass; } // solaris/bin/java_md_common.c // 查找启动类 jclass FindBootStrapClass(JNIEnv *env, const char* classname) { // 先找到jvm的 JVM_FindClassFromBootLoader 函数地址，然后调用即可 if (findBootClass == NULL) { findBootClass = (FindClassFromBootLoader_t *)dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT, "JVM_FindClassFromBootLoader"); if (findBootClass == NULL) { JLI_ReportErrorMessage(DLL_ERROR4, "JVM_FindClassFromBootLoader"); return NULL; } } return findBootClass(env, classname); }
具体怎么调用，我们略去不说。但如何查找启动类，可以一起来看看。即 JVM_FindClassFromBootLoader。
// jvm.cpp // Returns a class loaded by the bootstrap class loader; or null // if not found. ClassNotFoundException is not thrown. // // Rationale behind JVM_FindClassFromBootLoader // a> JVM_FindClassFromClassLoader was never exported in the export tables. // b> because of (a) java.dll has a direct dependecy on the unexported // private symbol "_JVM_FindClassFromClassLoader@20". // c> the launcher cannot use the private symbol as it dynamically opens // the entry point, so if something changes, the launcher will fail // unexpectedly at runtime, it is safest for the launcher to dlopen a // stable exported interface. // d> re-exporting JVM_FindClassFromClassLoader as public, will cause its // signature to change from _JVM_FindClassFromClassLoader@20 to // JVM_FindClassFromClassLoader and will not be backward compatible // with older JDKs. // Thus a public/stable exported entry point is the right solution, // public here means public in linker semantics, and is exported only // to the JDK, and is not intended to be a public API. JVM_ENTRY(jclass, JVM_FindClassFromBootLoader(JNIEnv* env, const char* name)) JVMWrapper2("JVM_FindClassFromBootLoader %s", name); // Java libraries should ensure that name is never null... // 类名称最长不超过65535 if (name == NULL || (int)strlen(name) > Symbol::max_length()) { // It's impossible to create this class; the name cannot fit // into the constant pool. return NULL; } // 常量池检查 // 创建启动类实例 TempNewSymbol h_name = SymbolTable::new_symbol(name, CHECK_NULL); Klass* k = SystemDictionary::resolve_or_null(h_name, CHECK_NULL); if (k == NULL) { return NULL; } if (TraceClassResolution) { trace_class_resolution(k); } // 创建jclass版本实例返回 return (jclass) JNIHandles::make_local(env, k->java_mirror()); JVM_END
整个方法定义，除去各复杂的宏定义，基本还是逻辑比较清晰的。 分三步走：1. 从常量池拿类名信息；2. 查找类信息实例化Klass；3. 转换为jclass返回。
2.3. 添加或查找常量池字符
在查找启动类时，看到有常量池的处理，这也是每个类的初始化时必须的过程，所以来看看常量池的使用吧。
// share/vm/classfile/symbolTable.hpp // Symbol creation static Symbol* new_symbol(const char* utf8_buffer, int length, TRAPS) { assert(utf8_buffer != NULL, "just checking"); return lookup(utf8_buffer, length, THREAD); } // symbolTable.cpp // We take care not to be blocking while holding the // SymbolTable_lock. Otherwise, the system might deadlock, since the // symboltable is used during compilation (VM_thread) The lock free // synchronization is simplified by the fact that we do not delete // entries in the symbol table during normal execution (only during // safepoints). Symbol* SymbolTable::lookup(const char* name, int len, TRAPS) { unsigned int hashValue = hash_symbol(name, len); int index = the_table()->hash_to_index(hashValue); Symbol* s = the_table()->lookup(index, name, len, hashValue); // Found if (s != NULL) return s; // 上锁添加常量池 // Grab SymbolTable_lock first. MutexLocker ml(SymbolTable_lock, THREAD); // Otherwise, add to symbol to table return the_table()->basic_add(index, (u1*)name, len, hashValue, true, CHECK_NULL); } // This version of basic_add adds symbols in batch from the constant pool // parsing. bool SymbolTable::basic_add(ClassLoaderData* loader_data, constantPoolHandle cp, int names_count, const char** names, int* lengths, int* cp_indices, unsigned int* hashValues, TRAPS) { // Check symbol names are not too long. If any are too long, don't add any. for (int i = 0; i< names_count; i++) { if (lengths[i] > Symbol::max_length()) { THROW_MSG_0(vmSymbols::java_lang_InternalError(), "name is too long to represent"); } } // Cannot hit a safepoint in this function because the "this" pointer can move. No_Safepoint_Verifier nsv; for (int i=0; i<names_count; i++) { // Check if the symbol table has been rehashed, if so, need to recalculate // the hash value. unsigned int hashValue; if (use_alternate_hashcode()) { hashValue = hash_symbol(names[i], lengths[i]); } else { hashValue = hashValues[i]; } // Since look-up was done lock-free, we need to check if another // thread beat us in the race to insert the symbol. int index = hash_to_index(hashValue); Symbol* test = lookup(index, names[i], lengths[i], hashValue); if (test != NULL) { // A race occurred and another thread introduced the symbol, this one // will be dropped and collected. Use test instead. cp->symbol_at_put(cp_indices[i], test); assert(test->refcount() != 0, "lookup should have incremented the count"); } else { // Create a new symbol. The null class loader is never unloaded so these // are allocated specially in a permanent arena. bool c_heap = !loader_data->is_the_null_class_loader_data(); Symbol* sym = allocate_symbol((const u1*)names[i], lengths[i], c_heap, CHECK_(false)); assert(sym->equals(names[i], lengths[i]), "symbol must be properly initialized"); // why wouldn't it be??? HashtableEntry<Symbol*, mtSymbol>* entry = new_entry(hashValue, sym); add_entry(index, entry); cp->symbol_at_put(cp_indices[i], sym); } } return true; }
通过hash的方式，将字符串添加到常量池中。下一次进行字符串获取时，也就直接从常量池中获取即可。hash作为查找最快的方式，非常有效。因为类信息本身就会反复使用，所以使用常量池或者缓存的方式保存，再好不过。
2.4. 类的查找与初始化
经过常量池处理后，进行实例查找和创建。有点复杂，有可能还涉及到java代码的交互。我们只看大概。
// share/vm/classfile/systemDictionary.cpp Klass* SystemDictionary::resolve_or_null(Symbol* class_name, TRAPS) { return resolve_or_null(class_name, Handle(), Handle(), THREAD); } // Forwards to resolve_instance_class_or_null Klass* SystemDictionary::resolve_or_null(Symbol* class_name, Handle class_loader, Handle protection_domain, TRAPS) { assert(!THREAD->is_Compiler_thread(), err_msg("can not load classes with compiler thread: class=%s, classloader=%s", class_name->as_C_string(), class_loader.is_null() ?

If it fails an exception is thrown validate_protection_domain(k, class_loader, protection_domain, CHECK_NULL); return k(); }
有点复杂，空了细看吧。另外可以提一下的就是，每一次class的加载，都会附带一个锁的操作
{ MutexLocker mu(SystemDictionary_lock, THREAD); kk = find_class(d_index, d_hash, name, ik->class_loader_data()); }
这种锁超出作用域后，就会调用析构方法，然后就会自动进行锁释放。这和很多的锁需要 lock() -> unlock() 到是省了一些事。
2.5. 类实例的返回
JNIHandles::make_local(), 大概意思是将前面解析出来的 Klass 转换对应的 jclass , 而这其中又有很多弯弯绕。
// share/vm/runtime/jniHandles.cpp jobject JNIHandles::make_local(JNIEnv* env, oop obj) { if (obj == NULL) { return NULL; // ignore null handles } else { JavaThread* thread = JavaThread::thread_from_jni_environment(env); assert(Universe::heap()->is_in_reserved(obj), "sanity check"); return thread->active_handles()->allocate_handle(obj); } } jobject JNIHandleBlock::allocate_handle(oop obj) { assert(Universe::heap()->is_in_reserved(obj), "sanity check"); if (_top == 0) { // This is the first allocation or the initial block got zapped when // entering a native function. If we have any following blocks they are // not valid anymore. for (JNIHandleBlock* current = _next; current != NULL; current = current->_next) { assert(current->_last == NULL, "only first block should have _last set"); assert(current->_free_list == NULL, "only first block should have _free_list set"); current->_top = 0; if (ZapJNIHandleArea) current->zap(); } // Clear initial block _free_list = NULL; _allocate_before_rebuild = 0; _last = this; if (ZapJNIHandleArea) zap(); } // Try last block if (_last->_top < block_size_in_oops) { oop* handle = &(_last->_handles)[_last->_top++]; *handle = obj; // 出口1 return (jobject) handle; } // Try free list if (_free_list != NULL) { oop* handle = _free_list; _free_list = (oop*) *_free_list; *handle = obj; // 出口2 return (jobject) handle; } // Check if unused block follow last if (_last->_next != NULL) { // update last and retry _last = _last->_next; return allocate_handle(obj); } // No space available, we have to rebuild free list or expand if (_allocate_before_rebuild == 0) { rebuild_free_list(); // updates _allocate_before_rebuild counter } else { // Append new block Thread* thread = Thread::current(); Handle obj_handle(thread, obj); // This can block, so we need to preserve obj accross call. _last->_next = JNIHandleBlock::allocate_block(thread); _last = _last->_next; _allocate_before_rebuild--; obj = obj_handle(); } return allocate_handle(obj); // retry }
主要就是一个类型的转换，或者包装Kclass 以便可以操作更多，细节自行阅读。
3. 一点闲话
本文着重讲解了jvm对java类的查找，以及对类方法的查找实现。而且看起来，实现得挺复杂挺难的样子。
然而，我们单就对一个类的查找方法的查找而言，应该是很简单的。而且两场景相似度也很高，只是一个入参是类名，另一个是方法签名。比如，对类的查找，无外乎一个hash数据结构的存取实现而已。只是在对类的初始过程，需要保证线程安全而已。而对于方法的查找，则可能更简单，因为方法毕竟有限，不如类来得多。甚至可能就是一个链表搞定，通过遍历签名即可得到方法id。
实际上，当我们提出一个问题时，往往就已经将事情简单化了，或许已关系场景本身的初衷。因为，像jvm这种高难度玩意，需要极高的理论基础，设计能力，极广的知识面，以及超高的实现能力。因为，它本身的场景，就是提供各种不确定性。我等，只是做个吃瓜群众罢了。
不过幸好，至少我们可以验证一些猜想，没有虚妄。至少会以为，抽丝剥茧之后的，我们都会。
