什么是时间轮(Timing Wheel)
时间轮(Timing Wheel)是一种环形的数据结构，就像一个时钟可以分成很多格子（Tick)，每个格子代表时间的间隔，它指向存储的具体任务（timerTask）的一个链表。
以上述在论文中的图片例子，这里一个轮子包含8个格子（Tick), 每个tick是一秒钟；
任务的添加：如果一个任务要在17秒后执行，那么它需要转2轮，最终加到Tick=1位置的链表中。
任务的执行：在时钟转2Round到Tick=1的位置，开始执行这个位置指向的链表中的这个任务。（# 这里表示剩余需要转几轮再执行这个任务）
Netty的HashedWheelTimer要解决什么问题
在Netty中的一个典型应用场景是判断某个连接是否idle，如果idle（如客户端由于网络原因导致到服务器的心跳无法送达），则服务器会主动断开连接，释放资源。判断连接是否idle是通过定时任务完成的，但是Netty可能维持数百万级别的长连接，对每个连接去定义一个定时任务是不可行的，所以如何提升I/O超时调度的效率呢？
Netty根据时间轮(Timing Wheel)开发了HashedWheelTimer工具类，用来优化I/O超时调度(本质上是延迟任务）；之所以采用时间轮(Timing Wheel)的结构还有一个很重要的原因是I/O超时这种类型的任务对时效性不需要非常精准。
HashedWheelTimer的使用方式
通过构造函数看主要参数
public HashedWheelTimer(
ThreadFactory threadFactory,
long tickDuration, TimeUnit unit, int ticksPerWheel, boolean leakDetection,
long maxPendingTimeouts, Executor taskExecutor) {
}
具体参数说明如下：
threadFactory：线程工厂，用于创建工作线程， 默认是Executors.defaultThreadFactory()tickDuration：tick的周期，即多久tick一次unit: tick周期的单位ticksPerWheel：时间轮的长度，一圈下来有多少格leakDetection：是否开启内存泄漏检测，默认是truemaxPendingTimeouts：最多执行的任务数，默认是-1，即不限制。在高并发量情况下才会设置这个参数。
实现案例
Pom依赖
引入pom的依赖
<dependency>
<groupId>io.netty</groupId>
<artifactId>netty-all</artifactId>
<version>4.1.77.Final</version>
</dependency>
2个简单例子
例子1：5秒后执行TimerTask
@SneakyThrows
public static void simpleHashedWheelTimer() {
log.info("init task 1...");
HashedWheelTimer timer = new HashedWheelTimer(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS, 8);
// add a new timeout
timer.newTimeout(timeout -> {
log.info("running task 1...");
}, 5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}
执行结果如下：
23:32:21.364 [main] INFO tech.pdai.springboot.schedule.timer.netty.HashedWheelTimerTester - init task 1...
...
23:32:27.454 [pool-1-thread-1] INFO tech.pdai.springboot.schedule.timer.netty.HashedWheelTimerTester - running task 1...
例子2：任务失效后cancel并让它重新在3秒后执行。
@SneakyThrows
public static void reScheduleHashedWheelTimer() {
log.info("init task 2...");
HashedWheelTimer timer = new HashedWheelTimer(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS, 8);
Thread.sleep(5000);
// add a new timeout
Timeout tm = timer.newTimeout(timeout -> {
log.info("running task 2...");
}, 5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
// cancel
if (!tm.isExpired()) {
log.info("cancel task 2...");
tm.cancel();
}
// reschedule
timer.newTimeout(tm.task(), 3, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}
23:28:36.408 [main] INFO tech.pdai.springboot.schedule.timer.netty.HashedWheelTimerTester - init task 2...
23:28:41.412 [main] INFO tech.pdai.springboot.schedule.timer.netty.HashedWheelTimerTester - cancel task 2...
23:28:45.414 [pool-2-thread-1] INFO tech.pdai.springboot.schedule.timer.netty.HashedWheelTimerTester - running task 2...
进一步理解
HashedWheelTimer是如何实现的?
Worker：worker工作线程主要负责任务调度触发，单线程运行。HashedWheelBucket： 时间轮上面的格子，内部持有HashedWheelTimeout组成的链表结构的头尾节点，多个格子组成的时间轮形成一圈又一圈的任务环HashedWheelTimeout： 往时间轮里面提交的任务会被封装成HashedWheelTimeout
构造函数
public HashedWheelTimer(
ThreadFactory threadFactory,
long tickDuration, TimeUnit unit, int ticksPerWheel, boolean leakDetection,
long maxPendingTimeouts, Executor taskExecutor) {
checkNotNull(threadFactory, "threadFactory");
checkNotNull(unit, "unit");
checkPositive(tickDuration, "tickDuration");
checkPositive(ticksPerWheel, "ticksPerWheel");
this.taskExecutor = checkNotNull(taskExecutor, "taskExecutor");
// Normalize ticksPerWheel to power of two and initialize the wheel.
wheel = createWheel(ticksPerWheel);
mask = wheel.length - 1;
// Convert tickDuration to nanos.
long duration = unit.toNanos(tickDuration);
// Prevent overflow.
if (duration >= Long.MAX_VALUE / wheel.length) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException(String.format(
"tickDuration: %d (expected: 0 < tickDuration in nanos < %d",
tickDuration, Long.MAX_VALUE / wheel.length));
}
if (duration < MILLISECOND_NANOS) {
logger.warn("Configured tickDuration {} smaller than {}, using 1ms.",
tickDuration, MILLISECOND_NANOS);
this.tickDuration = MILLISECOND_NANOS;
} else {
this.tickDuration = duration;
}
workerThread = threadFactory.newThread(worker);
leak = leakDetection || !workerThread.isDaemon() ? leakDetector.track(this) : null;
this.maxPendingTimeouts = maxPendingTimeouts;
if (INSTANCE_COUNTER.incrementAndGet() > INSTANCE_COUNT_LIMIT &&
WARNED_TOO_MANY_INSTANCES.compareAndSet(false, true)) {
reportTooManyInstances();
}
}
创建wheel
private static HashedWheelBucket[] createWheel(int ticksPerWheel) {
//ticksPerWheel may not be greater than 2^30
checkInRange(ticksPerWheel, 1, 1073741824, "ticksPerWheel");
ticksPerWheel = normalizeTicksPerWheel(ticksPerWheel);
HashedWheelBucket[] wheel = new HashedWheelBucket[ticksPerWheel];
for (int i = 0; i < wheel.length; i ++) {
wheel[i] = new HashedWheelBucket();
}
return wheel;
}
private static int normalizeTicksPerWheel(int ticksPerWheel) {
int normalizedTicksPerWheel = 1;
while (normalizedTicksPerWheel < ticksPerWheel) {
normalizedTicksPerWheel <<= 1;
}
return normalizedTicksPerWheel;
}
任务的添加
@Override
public Timeout newTimeout(TimerTask task, long delay, TimeUnit unit) {
checkNotNull(task, "task");
checkNotNull(unit, "unit");
long pendingTimeoutsCount = pendingTimeouts.incrementAndGet();
if (maxPendingTimeouts > 0 && pendingTimeoutsCount > maxPendingTimeouts) {
pendingTimeouts.decrementAndGet();
throw new RejectedExecutionException("Number of pending timeouts ("
+ pendingTimeoutsCount + ") is greater than or equal to maximum allowed pending "
+ "timeouts (" + maxPendingTimeouts + ")");
}
start();
// Add the timeout to the timeout queue which will be processed on the next tick.
// During processing all the queued HashedWheelTimeouts will be added to the correct HashedWheelBucket.
long deadline = System.nanoTime() + unit.toNanos(delay) - startTime;
// Guard against overflow.
if (delay > 0 && deadline < 0) {
deadline = Long.MAX_VALUE;
}
HashedWheelTimeout timeout = new HashedWheelTimeout(this, task, deadline);
timeouts.add(timeout);
return timeout;
}
执行方法
/**
* Starts the background thread explicitly. The background thread will
* start automatically on demand even if you did not call this method.
*
* @throws IllegalStateException if this timer has been
* {@linkplain #stop() stopped} already
*/
public void start() {
switch (WORKER_STATE_UPDATER.get(this)) {
case WORKER_STATE_INIT:
if (WORKER_STATE_UPDATER.compareAndSet(this, WORKER_STATE_INIT, WORKER_STATE_STARTED)) {
workerThread.start();
}
break;
case WORKER_STATE_STARTED:
break;
case WORKER_STATE_SHUTDOWN:
throw new IllegalStateException("cannot be started once stopped");
default:
throw new Error("Invalid WorkerState");
}
// Wait until the startTime is initialized by the worker.
while (startTime == 0) {
try {
startTimeInitialized.await();
} catch (InterruptedException ignore) {
// Ignore - it will be ready very soon.
}
}
}
停止方法
@Override
public Set<Timeout> stop() {
if (Thread.currentThread() == workerThread) {
throw new IllegalStateException(
HashedWheelTimer.class.getSimpleName() +
".stop() cannot be called from " +
TimerTask.class.getSimpleName());
}
if (!WORKER_STATE_UPDATER.compareAndSet(this, WORKER_STATE_STARTED, WORKER_STATE_SHUTDOWN)) {
// workerState can be 0 or 2 at this moment - let it always be 2.
if (WORKER_STATE_UPDATER.getAndSet(this, WORKER_STATE_SHUTDOWN) != WORKER_STATE_SHUTDOWN) {
INSTANCE_COUNTER.decrementAndGet();
if (leak != null) {
boolean closed = leak.close(this);
assert closed;
}
}
return Collections.emptySet();
}
try {
boolean interrupted = false;
while (workerThread.isAlive()) {
workerThread.interrupt();
try {
workerThread.join(100);
} catch (InterruptedException ignored) {
interrupted = true;
}
}
if (interrupted) {
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
} finally {
INSTANCE_COUNTER.decrementAndGet();
if (leak != null) {
boolean closed = leak.close(this);
assert closed;
}
}
return worker.unprocessedTimeouts();
}
什么是多级Timing Wheel?
多级的时间轮是比较好理解的，时钟是有小时，分钟，秒的，秒转一圈(Round)分钟就转一个格（Tick）, 分钟转一圈(Round)小时就转一格（Tick）。
PS：显然HashedWheelTimer是一层时间轮。
