0. 引言
在linux的哲学中,所有的磁盘文件、目录、外设设备、驱动设备全部被抽象为了"文件"这个概念,所以本文提到的"File IO"适用于linux下所有的IO操作,需要明白的的,本文分析的是linux下的IO系统调用对应的内核源代码,linux下每一个系统调用都有对应的内核源代码,而我们在ring3常用的glib c的编程所有的c库API,它们只是对系统调用的一个封装,最终还是要通过系统调用实现功能
0x1: SYSCALL_DEFINE宏定义
我们在学习内核源代码的时候经常会遇到一个宏定义: SYSCALL_DEFINE,所有的系统调用的声明都通过它来实现
\linux-2.6.32.63\include\linux\syscalls.h
#define SYSCALL_DEFINE0(sname) \ SYSCALL_TRACE_ENTER_EVENT(_##sname); SYSCALL_TRACE_EXIT_EVENT(_##sname); static const struct syscall_metadata __used __attribute__((__aligned__(4))) __attribute__((section("__syscalls_metadata"))) __syscall_meta_##sname = { .name = "sys_"#sname, .nb_args = 0, .enter_event = &event_enter__##sname, .exit_event = &event_exit__##sname, }; asmlinkage long sys_##sname(void) #else #define SYSCALL_DEFINE0(name) asmlinkage long sys_##name(void) #endif #define SYSCALL_DEFINE1(name, ...) SYSCALL_DEFINEx(1, _##name, __VA_ARGS__) #define SYSCALL_DEFINE2(name, ...) SYSCALL_DEFINEx(2, _##name, __VA_ARGS__) #define SYSCALL_DEFINE3(name, ...) SYSCALL_DEFINEx(3, _##name, __VA_ARGS__) #define SYSCALL_DEFINE4(name, ...) SYSCALL_DEFINEx(4, _##name, __VA_ARGS__) #define SYSCALL_DEFINE5(name, ...) SYSCALL_DEFINEx(5, _##name, __VA_ARGS__) #define SYSCALL_DEFINE6(name, ...) SYSCALL_DEFINEx(6, _##name, __VA_ARGS__)
...
#ifdef CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS #define SYSCALL_DEFINEx(x, sname, ...) static const char *types_##sname[] = { __SC_STR_TDECL##x(__VA_ARGS__) }; static const char *args_##sname[] = { __SC_STR_ADECL##x(__VA_ARGS__) }; SYSCALL_METADATA(sname, x); __SYSCALL_DEFINEx(x, sname, __VA_ARGS__) #else #define SYSCALL_DEFINEx(x, sname, ...) \ __SYSCALL_DEFINEx(x, sname, __VA_ARGS__) #endif #ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS #define SYSCALL_DEFINE(name) static inline long SYSC_##name #define __SYSCALL_DEFINEx(x, name, ...) \ asmlinkage long sys##name(__SC_DECL##x(__VA_ARGS__)); static inline long SYSC##name(__SC_DECL##x(__VA_ARGS__)); asmlinkage long SyS##name(__SC_LONG##x(__VA_ARGS__)) { __SC_TEST##x(__VA_ARGS__); return (long) SYSC##name(__SC_CAST##x(__VA_ARGS__)); } SYSCALL_ALIAS(sys##name, SyS##name); static inline long SYSC##name(__SC_DECL##x(__VA_ARGS__)) #else /* CONFIG_HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS */ #define SYSCALL_DEFINE(name) asmlinkage long sys_##name #define __SYSCALL_DEFINEx(x, name, ...) asmlinkage long sys##name(__SC_DECL##x(__VA_ARGS__)) #endif /* CONFIG_HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS */
所以对函数定义
SYSCALL_DEFINE3(socket, int, family, int, type, int, protocol)就等于
asmlinkage long sys_socket(int family, int type, int protocol)

1. open() syscall
open()系统调用在kernel中对应的是sys_open()
\linux-2.6.32.63\fs\open.c
SYSCALL_DEFINE3(open, const char __user *, filename, int, flags, int, mode) { long ret; if (force_o_largefile()) { flags |= O_LARGEFILE; } //调用do_sys_open完成实际功能 ret = do_sys_open(AT_FDCWD, filename, flags, mode); /* avoid REGPARM breakage on x86: */ asmlinkage_protect(3, ret, filename, flags, mode); return ret; }
继续跟进do_sys_open()函数
long do_sys_open(int dfd, const char __user *filename, int flags, int mode) { /*获取文件名称,由getname()函数完成,其内部首先创建存取文件名称的空间,然后从用户空间把文件名拷贝过来*/ char *tmp = getname(filename); int fd = PTR_ERR(tmp); if (!IS_ERR(tmp)) { /*获取一个可用的fd,此函数调用alloc_fd()函数从fd_table中获取一个可用fd,并进行初始化*/ fd = get_unused_fd_flags(flags); if (fd >= 0) { /*fd获取成功则开始打开文件,此函数是主要完成打开功能的函数*/ struct file *f = do_filp_open(dfd, tmp, flags, mode, 0); if (IS_ERR(f)) { /*打开失败,释放fd*/ put_unused_fd(fd); fd = PTR_ERR(f); } else { //文件如果已经被打开了,调用fsnotify_open()函数 fsnotify_open(f->f_path.dentry); //将文件指针安装在fd数组中,每个进程都会将打开的文件句柄保存在fd_array[]数组中 fd_install(fd, f); } } //释放放置从用户空间拷贝过来的文件名的存储空间 putname(tmp); } return fd; }
继续跟进do_file_open()函数
/* * Note that the low bits of the passed in "open_flag" * are not the same as in the local variable "flag". See * open_to_namei_flags() for more details. */ struct file *do_filp_open(int dfd, const char *pathname, int open_flag, int mode, int acc_mode) { /* 若干变量声明 */ struct file *filp; struct nameidata nd; int error; struct path path; struct dentry *dir; int count = 0; int will_write; /*改变参数flag的值,具体做法是flag+1*/ int flag = open_to_namei_flags(open_flag); /*设置访问权限*/ if (!acc_mode) { acc_mode = MAY_OPEN | ACC_MODE(flag); } /* O_TRUNC implies we need access checks for write permissions */ /* 根据O_TRUNC标志设置写权限 */ if (flag & O_TRUNC) { acc_mode |= MAY_WRITE; } /* Allow the LSM permission hook to distinguish append access from general write access. */ /* 设置O_APPEND标志 */ if (flag & O_APPEND) { acc_mode |= MAY_APPEND; } /* The simplest case - just a plain lookup. */ /* 如果不是创建文件 */ if (!(flag & O_CREAT)) { /* 当内核要访问一个文件的时候,第一步要做的是找到这个文件,而查找文件的过程在vfs里面是由path_lookup或者path_lookup_open函数来完成的 这两个函数将用户传进来的字符串表示的文件路径转换成一个dentry结构,并建立好相应的inode和file结构,将指向file的描述符返回用户 用户随后通过文件描述符,来访问这些数据结构 */ error = path_lookup_open(dfd, pathname, lookup_flags(flag), &nd, flag); if (error) { return ERR_PTR(error); } goto ok; } /* * Create - we need to know the parent. */ //path-init为查找作准备工作,path_walk真正上路查找,这两个函数联合起来根据一段路径名找到对应的dentry error = path_init(dfd, pathname, LOOKUP_PARENT, &nd); if (error) { return ERR_PTR(error); } /* 这个函数相当重要,是整个NFS的名字解析函数,其实也是NFS得以构筑的函数 该函数采用一个for循环,对name路径根据目录的层次,一层一层推进,直到终点或失败。在推进的过程中,一步步建立了目录树的dentry和对应的inode */ error = path_walk(pathname, &nd); if (error) { if (nd.root.mnt) { /*减少dentry和vsmount得计数*/ path_put(&nd.root); } return ERR_PTR(error); } if (unlikely(!audit_dummy_context())) { /*保存inode节点信息*/ audit_inode(pathname, nd.path.dentry); } /* * We have the parent and last component.

总结一下流程
1. open系统调用访问SYSCALL_DEFINE3函数 2. 在open系统调用中,调用do_sys_open函数完成主要功能 3. 在do_sys_open函数中,调用函数do_filp_open完成主要的打开功能 4. 在内核中要打开一个文件,首先应该找到这个文件,而查找文件的过程在vfs里面是由do_path_lookup或者path_lookup_open函数来完成的 4.1 设置nd->root=根路径(绝对地址)或者当前工作目录(相对地址) 4.2 这一步做完了后,内核会建立一些数据结构(dentry,inode)来初始化查找的起点 if(!retval){ retval = path_walk(name,nd);} 4.3 path_walk会遍历路径的每一节点分量,也就是用"/"分隔开的每一部分,最终找到name指向的文件 int path_walk(const char *name,struct nameidata *nd) { return link_path_walk(name,nd); //path_walk其实相当于直接调用link_path_walk来完成工作 } 4.4 link_path_walk的主要工作是有其内部函数__link_path_walk 来完成的 result = __link_path_walk(name,nd) 4.5 __link_walk_path,该函数把传进来的字符串name,也就是用户指定的路径,按路径分隔符分解成一系列小的component。比如用户说,我要找"/path/to/dest"这个文件,那么我们的文件系统就会按path、to、dest一个
一个来找,知道最后一个分量是文件或者查找完成。他找的时候,会先用path_init初始化过的根路径去找第一个分量,也就是path。然后用path的dentry->d_inode去找to,这样循环到最后一个。注意,内核会缓存找到的路径分量,
所以往往只有第一次访问一个路径的时候,才会去访问磁盘,后面的访问会直接从缓存里找,下面会看到,很多与页告诉缓存打交道的代码。但不管怎样,第一遍查找总是会访问磁盘的 static int __link_path_walk(const char *name,strucy nameidata *nd){..} 至此,按照每一个component查找完成之后,就会找到相应的文件,然后相应的打开工作就基本完成了

2. close() syscall
close()系统调用对应内核中的函数为: sys_close()
\linux-2.6.32.63\fs\open.c
/* * Careful here! We test whether the file pointer is NULL before * releasing the fd. This ensures that one clone task can‘t release * an fd while another clone is opening it. */ SYSCALL_DEFINE1(close, unsigned int, fd) { struct file * filp; struct files_struct *files = current->files; struct fdtable *fdt; int retval; spin_lock(&files->file_lock); /* 获取指向struct fdtable结构体的指针 \linux-2.6.32.63\include\linux\fdtable.h #define files_fdtable(files) (rcu_dereference((files)->fdt)) */ fdt = files_fdtable(files); if (fd >= fdt->max_fds) { goto out_unlock; } //获取需要关闭的文件描述符编号 filp = fdt->fd[fd]; if (!filp) { goto out_unlock; } /* 将fd_array[]中的的指定元素值置null */ rcu_assign_pointer(fdt->fd[fd], NULL); FD_CLR(fd, fdt->close_on_exec); /* 调用__put_unused_fd函数,将当前fd回收,则下一次打开新的文件又可以用这个fd了 static void __put_unused_fd(struct files_struct *files, unsigned int fd) { struct fdtable *fdt = files_fdtable(files); __FD_CLR(fd, fdt->open_fds); if (fd < files->next_fd) { files->next_fd = fd; } } */ __put_unused_fd(files, fd); spin_unlock(&files->file_lock); retval = filp_close(filp, files); /* can‘t restart close syscall because file table entry was cleared */ if (unlikely(retval == -ERESTARTSYS || retval == -ERESTARTNOINTR || retval == -ERESTARTNOHAND || retval == -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK)) { retval = -EINTR; } return retval; out_unlock: spin_unlock(&files->file_lock); return -EBADF; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(sys_close);
对于,我们需要重点跟进2个函数: rcu_assign_pointer(fdt->fd[fd], NULL);、retval = filp_close(filp, files);
\linux-2.6.32.63\fs\rcupdate.h
/** * rcu_assign_pointer - assign (publicize) a pointer to a newly * initialized structure that will be dereferenced by RCU read-side * critical sections. Returns the value assigned. * * Inserts memory barriers on architectures that require them * (pretty much all of them other than x86), and also prevents * the compiler from reordering the code that initializes the * structure after the pointer assignment. More importantly, this * call documents which pointers will be dereferenced by RCU read-side * code. */ #define rcu_assign_pointer(p, v) \ ({ if (!__builtin_constant_p(v) || ((v) != NULL)) smp_wmb(); (p) = (v); })
我们知道,每个进程在kernel中都有一个对应的task_struct与之对应,而通过task_struct可以间接地获得一个fd_array[]数组,表示当前进程已经打开的文件,每一个元素都是一个文件描述符的值,只有通过这个fd_array[x]才能获取当前进程打开的文件的struc file*,而rcu_assign_pointer(fdt->fd[fd], NULL)的作用就在于将将这个数组的指定元素置空,即断开了这个引用的关系,至于之后内核栈中的那个struct file*是否释放,那内存回收的事,至少现在进程想通过task_stuct是无法再引用到之前打开过的文件了,这里面的关系图可以参阅:
http://www.cnblogs.com/LittleHann/p/3865490.html //搜索: 用一张图表示task_struct、fs_struct、files_struct、fdtable、file的关系
我们继续分析etval = filp_close(filp, files);
\linux-2.6.32.63\fs\open.c
/* * "id" is the POSIX thread ID. We use the * files pointer for this.. */ int filp_close(struct file *filp, fl_owner_t id) { int retval = 0; if (!file_count(filp)) { printk(KERN_ERR "VFS: Close: file count is 0\n"); return 0; } if (filp->f_op && filp->f_op->flush) { retval = filp->f_op->flush(filp, id); } dnotify_flush(filp, id); locks_remove_posix(filp, id); fput(filp); return retval; }
filp_close()负责将表示打开的文件的struct file*内存空间进行释放,至此,内核栈中就再也没有之前打开过的文件的任何痕迹了
