用户态和内核态

程序代码的依赖和调用关系如下图所示:
用户态与内核态 & 文件流与文件描述符 简介【转】

  • Lib:标准ASCI C函数,几乎所有的平台都支持该库函数,因此依赖该库的程序可移植性好;
  • System Function:系统调用函数,与系统内核进行交互,不同平台具备不同的函数接口,因此可移植性较差

区分用户态和内核态主要是由于系统资源的有限性,不能无限制的随意分配给用户使用,必须由系统进行统一管理

  • User mode:不能直接对系统资源进行访问,如果要操作系统资源,必须转化为内核态
  • Kernel mode:管理系统资源,可直接对系统资源进行控制和访问

内核为用户提供了统一的API供其使用,不同的系统的API接口不同,为了便于代码的移植,出台了POSIX标准,类Unix系统(Unix、Linux、BSD、SunOS等)均支持该标准。

文件流与文件描述符

  • 问题
    由上图我们可看到,每执行一次系统调用,都要涉及到CPU状态的切换,即从用户态切换到内核态,即从用户空间切换到内核空间,实现上下文切换的过程,会消耗相当一部分的CPU资源,因此频繁的磁盘访问对程序的执行效率将造成很大影响。

  • 解决方案
    为了解决以上的难题,采用了缓冲区的概念,当对磁盘文件进行操作时,可一次性从磁盘文件中读出大量的数据暂放到缓冲区中,以后对这部分数据的访问就不需要再进行系统调用了;当对文件行操作后,可将处理后的数据暂存到输出缓冲区,待文件缓冲区满后,一次性写入到磁盘。

以上,数据的输入输出就像是水在流动一样,因此我们采用了的概念。

  • 文件流 :
    简单来说就是建立在面向对象基础上的一种抽象的处理数据的工具。在流中,定义了一些处理数据的基本操作,如读取数据,写入数据等,程序员是对流进行所有操作的,而不用关心流的另一头数据的真正流向;
    文件流用结构体表示:struct FILE.
    FILE的结构体又是怎么样的呢?我们可以进行查找一下:

      [niesh@niesh ~]$ vim /usr/include/stdio.h

我们看到了 stdio.h的文件中有一行:

__BEGIN_NAMESPACE_STD
/* The opaque type of streams. This is the definition used elsewhere. */
typedef struct _IO_FILE FILE;
__END_NAMESPACE_STD

显然,FILE 是 _IO_FILE的类型替换,那么我们找一下 _IO_FILE在哪里呢?

(⊙o⊙)…,还挺多啊,不过仔细观察,发现只有 libio.h的246行是对该结构体的定义,我们打开瞅瞅!

[niesh@niesh ~]$ vim /usr/include/libio.h

struct FILE 的结构体成员如下代码所示:

    struct _IO_FILE {
int _flags; /* High-order word is _IO_MAGIC; rest is flags. */
#define _IO_file_flags _flags /* The following pointers correspond to the C++ streambuf protocol. */
/* Note: Tk uses the _IO_read_ptr and _IO_read_end fields directly. */
char* _IO_read_ptr; /* Current read pointer */
char* _IO_read_end; /* End of get area. */
char* _IO_read_base; /* Start of putback+get area. */
char* _IO_write_base; /* Start of put area. */
char* _IO_write_ptr; /* Current put pointer. */
char* _IO_write_end; /* End of put area. */
char* _IO_buf_base; /* Start of reserve area. */
char* _IO_buf_end; /* End of reserve area. */
/* The following fields are used to support backing up and undo. */
char *_IO_save_base; /* Pointer to start of non-current get area. */
char *_IO_backup_base; /* Pointer to first valid character of backup area */
char *_IO_save_end; /* Pointer to end of non-current get area. */ struct _IO_marker *_markers; struct _IO_FILE *_chain; int _fileno;
#if 0
int _blksize;
#else
int _flags2;
#endif
_IO_off_t _old_offset; /* This used to be _offset but it's too small. */ #define __HAVE_COLUMN /* temporary */
/* 1+column number of pbase(); 0 is unknown. */
unsigned short _cur_column;
signed char _vtable_offset;
char _shortbuf[1]; /* char* _save_gptr; char* _save_egptr; */ _IO_lock_t *_lock;
#ifdef _IO_USE_OLD_IO_FILE
};
    • 文件描述符
      每个进程,当打开一个文件后,内核会为其建立一个打开文件的数组 (数组的前三个为stdin,stdout,stderr),然后返回打开文件位于数组的索引值(下标),该所以只即为文件描述符,只要文件不关闭,用户便可以根据该描述符对文件进行访问和操作。

    • 不同点
      文件描述符:表示为int类型的对象:如stdin对应文件描述符0,stdout对应文件描述符1;
      :表示为指向结构FILE的指针FILE* ,因此流也称为文件指针
      若需要对特定设备进行控制操作,必须使用文件描述符方式,没有函数能对流进行这类操作
      如果需要按照特殊的方式进行I/O操作(例如非阻塞的方式),必须使用文件描述符方式,也没有函数能对流进行这类操作。

    • 联系
      流给用户程序提供了更高一级的(功能更强大,使用更简化)的I/O接口,它处在文件描述符方式的上层,也就是说,流函数是通过文件描述符函数来实现的。
