在golang的调度体系中,除了GMP本身,还有另外一个比较重要的角色sysmon。实际上,除了GMP和sysmon,runtime中还有一个全局的调度器对象。但该对象只是维护一些全局的数据,而不承担实际的调度职责,并不值得单独介绍,感兴趣的同学可以自己了解一下。
回到sysmon,sysmon是一个管理线程或者说守护线程,其是对GMP调度架构的补充和兜底。通过前面的几篇介绍,可以知道GMP的调度完全是主动协作式的调度。主动协作式的调度性能很高,但是在某些情况下会出现单个goroutine长期占据时间片甚至一直占据时间片的情况。
比如:
- 某个goroutine不执行主动调度、不调用系统调用、不做函数调用,就会一直运行直到goroutine退出;
- 某个goroutine处于syscall状态时也无法触发主动调度,可能会造成该goroutine长时间占据时间片;
sysmon的作用就是处理类似上面情况,其主要的工作内容有:
- 定期查看netpoll有无就绪的任务,防止netpoll阻塞队列中的goroutine饥饿;
- 定期查看是否有p长时间(10ms)处于syscall状态,如有则将p的持有权释放以执行其他g;
- 定期查看是否有p长时间(10ms)没有调度,如有则对当前m发送信号,触发基于信号的异步抢占调度;
在main函数启动时,会调用newm函数创建sysmon线程,sysmon作为mstartfn传入。
// src/runtime/proc.go 145
// The main goroutine.
func main() {
...
if GOARCH != "wasm" { // no threads on wasm yet, so no sysmon
systemstack(func() {
newm(sysmon, nil, -1)
})
}
...
}
在介绍m的时候,我们提到过,mstart中会先调用mstartfn,然后再获取p并调用schedule函数。由于sysmon函数是循环不返回的,所以对应的m(也就是线程)永远运行sysmon,并且不需要获取p。所以并不是所有的m都需要p才可以运行的。
接下来,我们看下sysmon的里面具体做了些什么。
- 进入sysmon可以看到里面是一个死循环,这和我们上面提到的一样。该循环并非一直忙等,而是会根据系统的情况进行延时睡眠,初始的interval是20us,最大的interval是10ms。
- 在某些特殊的情况,sysmon可以进入更长时间(超过10ms)的睡眠,条件包括:
- 系统不需要schedtrace。看起来是和调度相关观测的内容,如果需要schedtrace,则sysmon需要及时输出相关数据;
- 系统处于停滞状态。这个停滞是我自己描述的,不一定准确,包括两种情况:1. 所有的p都是空闲的,此时系统中没有任务执行;2. 系统在等待进入gc状态,马上要stop the world;
满足上面两个条件,则可最大进行1min的睡眠。1min是最大强制gc时间(2min)的一半。
- sysmon的活跃状态,首先会坚持netpoll是否超过10ms没有被检查过,这是为了防止netpoll挂载goroutine的饥饿;
- 然后会进行retake操作,retake的内容就是对所有p进行检查,查看p是否处于syscall或者被一个goroutine占据时间过长(超过10ms),如果有则进行相应的处理;
- 最后还会进行gc和schedtrace相关的操作;

retake的操作也相对比较好理解。在p的介绍中我们提到过schedtick、syscalltick、sysmontick三个字段,其作用正是为了sysmon的检查。
sysmontick表示sysmon观测到的调度和系统调用情况,schedtick、syscalltick为实际的调度和系统调用情况。因为sysmon会经常睡眠,所以两者之间会有差异。
- sysmon在检查所有p的过程中,如果发现sysmontick落后于实际情况,就会以实际情况为准更新sysmontick,同时也不会再做校验。因为sysmon睡眠最大时间为10ms,说明对应的p在10ms内做了调度。
- 如果sysmontick和实际情况一只,则要看p是否运行一个goroutine超过10ms,如果是,则对m发送信号,触发异步抢占调度;如果p处于syscall状态超过10ms,则将p的持有权释放执行其他g。
func retake(now int64) uint32 {
n := 0
// Prevent allp slice changes. This lock will be completely
// uncontended unless we're already stopping the world.

// temporarily drop the allpLock. Hence, we need to re-fetch
// allp each time around the loop.
