1.channel底层数据结构是什么

channel底层的数据结构是hchan,包括一个循环链表和2个双向链表

type hchan struct {
	qcount   uint           // total data in the queue
	dataqsiz uint           // size of the circular queue
	buf      unsafe.Pointer // points to an array of dataqsiz elements
	elemsize uint16
	closed   uint32
	elemtype *_type // element type
	sendx    uint   // send index
	recvx    uint   // receive index
	recvq    waitq  // list of recv waiters
	sendq    waitq  // list of send waiters

	// lock protects all fields in hchan, as well as several
	// fields in sudogs blocked on this channel.
	//
	// Do not change another G's status while holding this lock
	// (in particular, do not ready a G), as this can deadlock
	// with stack shrinking.
	lock mutex
}

buf：循环链表

sendx：循环链表中已发送的位置

recvx: 循环链表中已接受的位置

qcount：环形队列的实际大小

dataqsiz：环形队列的容量

elemsize：环列队列中元素的大小

elemtype:环形队列中元素的类型

closed:环形队列是否关闭

recvq：等待接收groutinue链表

sendq：等待发送send groutinue链表

lock:悲观锁

结构图如下所示

2.channel创建的底层实现

创建channel底层调用的是makechan，为新创建的channel分配内存空间，分为下面的三种情况：

不带缓冲区：只需要给hchan分配内存空间。
带缓冲区且不包括指针类型：同时给hchan和环形队列缓存buf分配一段连续的内存空间。
带缓冲区且包括指针类型：分别给hchan和环形队列缓存buf分配不同的内存空间。

源码如下：

func makechan64(t *chantype, size int64) *hchan {
	if int64(int(size)) != size {
		panic(plainError("makechan: size out of range"))
	}

	return makechan(t, int(size))
}

func makechan(t *chantype, size int) *hchan {
	elem := t.elem

	// compiler checks this but be safe.
	if elem.size >= 1<<16 {
		throw("makechan: invalid channel element type")
	}
	if hchanSize%maxAlign != 0 || elem.align > maxAlign {
		throw("makechan: bad alignment")
	}

	mem, overflow := math.MulUintptr(elem.size, uintptr(size))
	if overflow || mem > maxAlloc-hchanSize || size < 0 {
		panic(plainError("makechan: size out of range"))
	}

	// Hchan does not contain pointers interesting for GC when elements stored in buf do not contain pointers.
	// buf points into the same allocation, elemtype is persistent.
	// SudoG's are referenced from their owning thread so they can't be collected.
	// TODO(dvyukov,rlh): Rethink when collector can move allocated objects.
	var c *hchan
	switch {
	case mem == 0:
		// Queue or element size is zero.
		c = (*hchan)(mallocgc(hchanSize, nil, true))
		// Race detector uses this location for synchronization.
		c.buf = c.raceaddr()
	case elem.ptrdata == 0:
		// Elements do not contain pointers.
		// Allocate hchan and buf in one call.
		c = (*hchan)(mallocgc(hchanSize+mem, nil, true))
		c.buf = add(unsafe.Pointer(c), hchanSize)
	default:
		// Elements contain pointers.
		c = new(hchan)
		c.buf = mallocgc(mem, elem, true)
	}

	c.elemsize = uint16(elem.size)
	c.elemtype = elem
	c.dataqsiz = uint(size)
	lockInit(&c.lock, lockRankHchan)

	if debugChan {
		print("makechan: chan=", c, "; elemsize=", elem.size, "; dataqsiz=", size, "\n")
	}
	return c
}

3.channel 的发送过程

channel send 发送底层调用的是chansend1函数

channel发送的过程

1.检查 recvq 双向链表是否为空，如果不为空，说明recvq缓存队列不为空，buffer为空，有大量的recvq在等待，则从 recvq 头部取一个 goroutine，将数据发送过去，并唤醒对应的 goroutine 即可。

2.如果 recvq 为空，代表buffer可能有存储空间，则将数据放入到 buffer 中。

3.如果 buffer 已满，则将要发送的数据和当前 goroutine 打包成 sudog 对象放入到 sendq 中。并将当前 goroutine 置为 waiting 状态。

源码如下

func chansend1(c *hchan, elem unsafe.Pointer) {
	chansend(c, elem, true, getcallerpc())
}

/*
 * generic single channel send/recv
 * If block is not nil,
 * then the protocol will not
 * sleep but return if it could
 * not complete.
 *
 * sleep can wake up with g.param == nil
 * when a channel involved in the sleep has
 * been closed.  it is easiest to loop and re-run
 * the operation; we'll see that it's now closed.
 */
func chansend(c *hchan, ep unsafe.Pointer, block bool, callerpc uintptr) bool {
	if c == nil {
		if !block {
			return false
		}
		gopark(nil, nil, waitReasonChanSendNilChan, traceEvGoStop, 2)
		throw("unreachable")
	}

	if debugChan {
		print("chansend: chan=", c, "\n")
	}

	if raceenabled {
		racereadpc(c.raceaddr(), callerpc, funcPC(chansend))
	}

	// Fast path: check for failed non-blocking operation without acquiring the lock.
	//
	// After observing that the channel is not closed, we observe that the channel is
	// not ready for sending. Each of these observations is a single word-sized read
	// (first c.closed and second full()).
	// Because a closed channel cannot transition from 'ready for sending' to
	// 'not ready for sending', even if the channel is closed between the two observations,
	// they imply a moment between the two when the channel was both not yet closed
	// and not ready for sending. We behave as if we observed the channel at that moment,
	// and report that the send cannot proceed.
	//
	// It is okay if the reads are reordered here: if we observe that the channel is not
	// ready for sending and then observe that it is not closed, that implies that the
	// channel wasn't closed during the first observation. However, nothing here
	// guarantees forward progress. We rely on the side effects of lock release in
	// chanrecv() and closechan() to update this thread's view of c.closed and full().
	if !block && c.closed == 0 && full(c) {
		return false
	}

	var t0 int64
	if blockprofilerate > 0 {
		t0 = cputicks()
	}

	lock(&c.lock)

	if c.closed != 0 {
		unlock(&c.lock)
		panic(plainError("send on closed channel"))
	}
    //recvq不为空
	if sg := c.recvq.dequeue(); sg != nil {
		// Found a waiting receiver. We pass the value we want to send
		// directly to the receiver, bypassing the channel buffer (if any).
		send(c, sg, ep, func() { unlock(&c.lock) }, 3)
		return true
	}

    //
	if c.qcount < c.dataqsiz {
		// Space is available in the channel buffer. Enqueue the element to send.
		qp := chanbuf(c, c.sendx)
		if raceenabled {
			racenotify(c, c.sendx, nil)
		}
		typedmemmove(c.elemtype, qp, ep)
		c.sendx++
		if c.sendx == c.dataqsiz {
			c.sendx = 0
		}
		c.qcount++
		unlock(&c.lock)
		return true
	}

	if !block {
		unlock(&c.lock)
		return false
	}

	// Block on the channel. Some receiver will complete our operation for us.
	gp := getg()
	mysg := acquireSudog()
	mysg.releasetime = 0
	if t0 != 0 {
		mysg.releasetime = -1
	}
	// No stack splits between assigning elem and enqueuing mysg
	// on gp.waiting where copystack can find it.
	mysg.elem = ep
	mysg.waitlink = nil
	mysg.g = gp
	mysg.isSelect = false
	mysg.c = c
	gp.waiting = mysg
	gp.param = nil
	c.sendq.enqueue(mysg)
	// Signal to anyone trying to shrink our stack that we're about
	// to park on a channel. The window between when this G's status
	// changes and when we set gp.activeStackChans is not safe for
	// stack shrinking.
	atomic.Store8(&gp.parkingOnChan, 1)
	gopark(chanparkcommit, unsafe.Pointer(&c.lock), waitReasonChanSend, traceEvGoBlockSend, 2)
	// Ensure the value being sent is kept alive until the
	// receiver copies it out. The sudog has a pointer to the
	// stack object, but sudogs aren't considered as roots of the
	// stack tracer.
	KeepAlive(ep)

	// someone woke us up.
	if mysg != gp.waiting {
		throw("G waiting list is corrupted")
	}
	gp.waiting = nil
	gp.activeStackChans = false
	closed := !mysg.success
	gp.param = nil
	if mysg.releasetime > 0 {
		blockevent(mysg.releasetime-t0, 2)
	}
	mysg.c = nil
	releaseSudog(mysg)
	if closed {
		if c.closed == 0 {
			throw("chansend: spurious wakeup")
		}
		panic(plainError("send on closed channel"))
	}
	return true
}

4.channel的接受过程

channel底层调用的是chanrecv、chanrecv1、chanrecv2，chanrecv1和chanrecv2底层都调用的是chanrecv。chanrecv1和chanrecv2区别有没有接受数据成功的bool类型

 chanrecv1(c *hchan, elem unsafe.Pointer)
 chanrecv2(c *hchan, elem unsafe.Pointer) (received bool)

receiver过程分为4种情况

1.从sendq队列头部取一个元素，如果元素不为空，环形队列缓存区已满，说明buffer已满，大量的send goroutine在发送数据，阻塞了，rece从循环队列读取一个元素，,把goroutinue元素放在循环队列中，从sendq队列中唤醒goroutinue。

2.从sendq队列头部取一个元素，如果元素不为空，环形队列为空，并把goroutine中元素copy到receiver中,从sendq队列中唤醒一个goroutine,

3.sendq队列为空，buffer没有满，从buffer中获取一个元素，recex+1

4.sendq对列为空，buffer为空，rece的goroutinue包装成sudog,放在receq队列中。

channel recv的底层源码如下

// entry points for <- c from compiled code
//go:nosplit
func chanrecv1(c *hchan, elem unsafe.Pointer) {
	chanrecv(c, elem, true)
}

//go:nosplit
func chanrecv2(c *hchan, elem unsafe.Pointer) (received bool) {
	_, received = chanrecv(c, elem, true)
	return
}

// chanrecv receives on channel c and writes the received data to ep.
// ep may be nil, in which case received data is ignored.
// If block == false and no elements are available, returns (false, false).
// Otherwise, if c is closed, zeros *ep and returns (true, false).
// Otherwise, fills in *ep with an element and returns (true, true).
// A non-nil ep must point to the heap or the caller's stack.
func chanrecv(c *hchan, ep unsafe.Pointer, block bool) (selected, received bool) {
	// raceenabled: don't need to check ep, as it is always on the stack
	// or is new memory allocated by reflect.

	if debugChan {
		print("chanrecv: chan=", c, "\n")
	}

	if c == nil {
		if !block {
			return
		}
		gopark(nil, nil, waitReasonChanReceiveNilChan, traceEvGoStop, 2)
		throw("unreachable")
	}

	// Fast path: check for failed non-blocking operation without acquiring the lock.
	if !block && empty(c) {
		// After observing that the channel is not ready for receiving, we observe whether the
		// channel is closed.
		//
		// Reordering of these checks could lead to incorrect behavior when racing with a close.
		// For example, if the channel was open and not empty, was closed, and then drained,
		// reordered reads could incorrectly indicate "open and empty". To prevent reordering,
		// we use atomic loads for both checks, and rely on emptying and closing to happen in
		// separate critical sections under the same lock.  This assumption fails when closing
		// an unbuffered channel with a blocked send, but that is an error condition anyway.
		if atomic.Load(&c.closed) == 0 {
			// Because a channel cannot be reopened, the later observation of the channel
			// being not closed implies that it was also not closed at the moment of the
			// first observation. We behave as if we observed the channel at that moment
			// and report that the receive cannot proceed.
			return
		}
		// The channel is irreversibly closed. Re-check whether the channel has any pending data
		// to receive, which could have arrived between the empty and closed checks above.
		// Sequential consistency is also required here, when racing with such a send.
		if empty(c) {
			// The channel is irreversibly closed and empty.
			if raceenabled {
				raceacquire(c.raceaddr())
			}
			if ep != nil {
				typedmemclr(c.elemtype, ep)
			}
			return true, false
		}
	}

	var t0 int64
	if blockprofilerate > 0 {
		t0 = cputicks()
	}

	lock(&c.lock)

	if c.closed != 0 && c.qcount == 0 {
		if raceenabled {
			raceacquire(c.raceaddr())
		}
		unlock(&c.lock)
		if ep != nil {
			typedmemclr(c.elemtype, ep)
		}
		return true, false
	}

	if sg := c.sendq.dequeue(); sg != nil {
		// Found a waiting sender. If buffer is size 0, receive value
		// directly from sender. Otherwise, receive from head of queue
		// and add sender's value to the tail of the queue (both map to
		// the same buffer slot because the queue is full).
		recv(c, sg, ep, func() { unlock(&c.lock) }, 3)
		return true, true
	}

	if c.qcount > 0 {
		// Receive directly from queue
		qp := chanbuf(c, c.recvx)
		if raceenabled {
			racenotify(c, c.recvx, nil)
		}
		if ep != nil {
			typedmemmove(c.elemtype, ep, qp)
		}
		typedmemclr(c.elemtype, qp)
		c.recvx++
		if c.recvx == c.dataqsiz {
			c.recvx = 0
		}
		c.qcount--
		unlock(&c.lock)
		return true, true
	}

	if !block {
		unlock(&c.lock)
		return false, false
	}

	// no sender available: block on this channel.
	gp := getg()
	mysg := acquireSudog()
	mysg.releasetime = 0
	if t0 != 0 {
		mysg.releasetime = -1
	}
	// No stack splits between assigning elem and enqueuing mysg
	// on gp.waiting where copystack can find it.
	mysg.elem = ep
	mysg.waitlink = nil
	gp.waiting = mysg
	mysg.g = gp
	mysg.isSelect = false
	mysg.c = c
	gp.param = nil
	c.recvq.enqueue(mysg)
	// Signal to anyone trying to shrink our stack that we're about
	// to park on a channel. The window between when this G's status
	// changes and when we set gp.activeStackChans is not safe for
	// stack shrinking.
	atomic.Store8(&gp.parkingOnChan, 1)
	gopark(chanparkcommit, unsafe.Pointer(&c.lock), waitReasonChanReceive, traceEvGoBlockRecv, 2)

	}
	gp.waiting = nil

	}
	success := mysg.success
	gp.param = nil
	mysg.c = nil
	releaseSudog(mysg)
	return true, success
}

5.关闭 channel

关闭channel底层源码调用的是closechan

除此之外，关闭channel，出现panic的场景如下：

关闭值为nil的channel
关闭已经被关闭的channel
向已经关闭的channel写数据

关闭channel的源码如下

func closechan(c *hchan) {
	if c == nil {
		panic(plainError("close of nil channel"))
	}

	lock(&c.lock)
	if c.closed != 0 {
		unlock(&c.lock)
		panic(plainError("close of closed channel"))
	}

	if raceenabled {
		callerpc := getcallerpc()
		racewritepc(c.raceaddr(), callerpc, funcPC(closechan))
		racerelease(c.raceaddr())
	}

	c.closed = 1

	var glist gList

	// release all readers
	for {
		sg := c.recvq.dequeue()
		if sg == nil {
			break
		}
		if sg.elem != nil {
			typedmemclr(c.elemtype, sg.elem)
			sg.elem = nil
		}
		if sg.releasetime != 0 {
			sg.releasetime = cputicks()
		}
		gp := sg.g
		gp.param = unsafe.Pointer(sg)
		sg.success = false
		if raceenabled {
			raceacquireg(gp, c.raceaddr())
		}
		glist.push(gp)
	}

	// release all writers (they will panic)
	for {
		sg := c.sendq.dequeue()
		if sg == nil {
			break
		}
		sg.elem = nil
		if sg.releasetime != 0 {
			sg.releasetime = cputicks()
		}
		gp := sg.g
		gp.param = unsafe.Pointer(sg)
		sg.success = false
		if raceenabled {
			raceacquireg(gp, c.raceaddr())
		}
		glist.push(gp)
	}
	unlock(&c.lock)

	// Ready all Gs now that we've dropped the channel lock.
	for !glist.empty() {
		gp := glist.pop()
		gp.schedlink = 0
		goready(gp, 3)
	}
}
