Java线程源码分析
java.lang.Thread主要的成员变量如下：
private char name[];//线程名称
private int priority;//优先级
private volatile int threadStatus = 0;//线程状态
private boolean daemon = false;//是否后台线程
private Runnable target;//线程执行的逻辑
//每个线程都有一个ThreadLocalMap的成员变量，类似hashmap
ThreadLocal.ThreadLocalMap threadLocals = null;
private long eetop;//实际上是个指针，指向JavaThread的地址
start()方法
public synchronized void start() {
if (threadStatus != 0)
throw new IllegalThreadStateException();
group.add(this);
boolean started = false;
try {
start0();
started = true;
} finally {
try {
if (!started) {
group.threadStartFailed(this);
}
} catch (Throwable ignore) {
}
}
}
private native void start0();
star0()的实现， 查看Thread.c文件可以知道，它实际上调用的是jvm.cpp文件的JVM_StartThread方法:
JVM_ENTRY(void, JVM_StartThread(JNIEnv* env, jobject jthread))
JVMWrapper("JVM_StartThread");
JavaThread *native_thread = NULL;
bool throw_illegal_thread_state = false;
{
// Threads_lock代表在活动线程表上的锁，MutexLocker会调用lock方法上锁
MutexLocker mu(Threads_lock);
//实际上是判断java.lang.Thread的eetop,正常情况下，在后续步骤中会赋值，但在此处为0，不指向任何对象;
//其实在start方法中已经根据threadStatus进行了判断，但是由于创建线程对象和更新threadStatus并不是原子操作，因而再次check
if (java_lang_Thread::thread(JNIHandles::resolve_non_null(jthread)) != NULL) {
throw_illegal_thread_state = true;//状态错误，返回
} else {
//在java.lang.Thread的init方法中，可设置stack的大小，此处获取设置的大小；
//不过通常调用构造函数的时候都不会传入stack大小，size=0
jlong size =
java_lang_Thread::stackSize(JNIHandles::resolve_non_null(jthread));
size_t sz = size > 0 ? (size_t) size : 0;
//在下面的［创建JavaThread］介绍
native_thread = new JavaThread(&thread_entry, sz);
if (native_thread->osthread() != NULL) {
native_thread->prepare(jthread);
}
}
}
if (throw_illegal_thread_state) {
THROW(vmSymbols::java_lang_IllegalThreadStateException());
}
assert(native_thread != NULL, "Starting null thread?");
//Java线程实际上是通过系统线程实现的，如果创建系统线程失败，报错；
//有很多原因会导致该错误：比如内存不足、max user processes设置过小
if (native_thread->osthread() == NULL) {
delete native_thread;
if (JvmtiExport::should_post_resource_exhausted()) {
JvmtiExport::post_resource_exhausted(
JVMTI_RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED_OOM_ERROR | JVMTI_RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED_THREADS,

}

"unable to create new native thread");
}

// thread_id is kernel thread id (similar to Solaris LWP id)

//优先尝试在请求线程当前所处的CPU的Local内存上分配空间。
//如果local内存不足，优先淘汰local内存中无用的Page

int lgrp_id = os::numa_get_group_id();

}
}
// 调用pthread_sigmask初始化signal mask:VM线程处理BREAK_SIGNAL信号
os::Linux::hotspot_sigmask(thread);
// initialize floating point control register
os::Linux::init_thread_fpu_state();
// handshaking with parent thread
{
MutexLockerEx ml(sync, Mutex::_no_safepoint_check_flag);
// 设置状态会INITIALIZED,并通过notify_all唤醒父线程
