dumpsys is an executable file in the Android system. Its main function is to dump some information of the current Android system, such as Activity, package, etc. It is a very effective tool for analyzing Android device problems, viewing running status, usage, etc. It can obtain various system information and status, such as the PSS value of the process, and analyze the RAM usage of the process. The syntax of dumpsys provides a flexible way to obtain and analyze information about various services in the Android system. The basic syntax structure is as follows:
--help: Print instructions for using dumpsys. -l: List all system services supported by dumpsys. --skipservices: Specifies a list of services that do not need to be printed. service[arguments]: Specifies the specific service to be queried and its optional parameters. By specifying the service name, you can get detailed information about a specific service. -c: Output information in a machine-friendly format (usually key-value pairs), which may be useful for automated script parsing but may not be very friendly for human reading. -h: Used after the specified service to print what parameters the service supports or how to use the service. If dumpsys is run without any parameters, it will output detailed information about all system services. The output is very long. When solving specific problems, we usually only focus on the output of some specific system services. We only need to use the service name as a parameter of the dumpsys command to output only the information of a specific service. For example, if we want to output disk usage statistics, we can use the system service name diskstats as a parameter. How it worksdumpsys is based on the service management and inter-process communication mechanism of the Android system. It obtains information about all registered services in the system by calling the ServiceManager service at the bottom of the Android system. ServiceManager is a core service in the Android system, responsible for managing all services in the system and providing a unified registration, discovery and communication mechanism. When dumpsys is called, it interacts with the ServiceManager through the Binder inter-process communication (IPC) framework. Binder is a framework for inter-process communication provided by Android, allowing efficient communication and data exchange between different processes. Through Binder, dumpsys can request the ServiceManager to provide a list of all registered services in the current system, as well as detailed information about each service. ServiceManager will respond to dumpsys's request and return the status information of all services in the system, including the service name, status, runtime statistics, etc. After receiving this information, dumpsys will parse and organize it and display it in a readable way.
Taking the above adb shell dumpsys diskstats command as an example, the dump() method is finally called to complete the output: |
