我们主要分析arm64架构下的isa
初始化isa
inline void
objc_object::initIsa(Class cls, bool nonpointer, bool hasCxxDtor)
{
ASSERT(!isTaggedPointer());
if (!nonpointer) {
isa = isa_t((uintptr_t)cls);
} else {
ASSERT(!DisableNonpointerIsa);
ASSERT(!cls->instancesRequireRawIsa());
isa_t newisa(0);
#if SUPPORT_INDEXED_ISA
ASSERT(cls->classArrayIndex() > 0);
newisa.bits = ISA_INDEX_MAGIC_VALUE;
// isa.magic is part of ISA_MAGIC_VALUE
// isa.nonpointer is part of ISA_MAGIC_VALUE
newisa.has_cxx_dtor = hasCxxDtor;
newisa.indexcls = (uintptr_t)cls->classArrayIndex();
#else
newisa.bits = ISA_MAGIC_VALUE;
// isa.magic is part of ISA_MAGIC_VALUE
// isa.nonpointer is part of ISA_MAGIC_VALUE
newisa.has_cxx_dtor = hasCxxDtor;
newisa.shiftcls = (uintptr_t)cls >> 3;
#endif
// This write must be performed in a single store in some cases
// (for example when realizing a class because other threads
// may simultaneously try to use the class).
// fixme use atomics here to guarantee single-store and to
// guarantee memory order w.r.t. the class index table
// ...but not too atomic because we don't want to hurt instantiation
isa = newisa;
}
}
可以看出主要是这3步骤
newisa.bits = ISA_MAGIC_VALUE;
newisa.has_cxx_dtor = hasCxxDtor;
newisa.shiftcls = (uintptr_t)cls >> 3;
0x000001a000000001ULL 展开
0001 = 0000 0000 0000 0001
0000 = 0000 0000 0000 0000
01a0 = 0000 0001 1010 0000
0000 = 0000 0000 0000 0000

可以看出ISA_MAGIC_VALUE是对nonpointer和magic的赋值.
newisa.shiftcls = (uintptr_t)cls >> 3;
指针地址最后一位都是8或者0, 原来的指针二进制和右移3位之后的二进制,是一样的. 右移3位是去除0,是苹果的优化.
Using an entire pointer-sized piece of memory for the isa pointer is a bit wasteful, especially on 64-bit CPUs which don’t use all 64 bits of a pointer. ARM64 running iOS currently uses only 33 bits of a pointer, leaving 31 bits for other purposes. Class pointers are also aligned, meaning that a class pointer is guaranteed to be divisible by 8, which frees up another three bits, leaving 34 bits of the isa available for other uses. Apple’s ARM64 runtime takes advantage of this for some great performance improvements.
摘自The Complete Friday Q&A: Volume III
总体来说,初始化是给4个地方赋了值 nonpointer, magic, has_cxx_dtor,shiftcls.
其他含义:
struct {
uintptr_t nonpointer : 1; // \
uintptr_t has_assoc : 1; // 对象含有或者曾经含有关联引用,没有关联引用的可以更快地释放内存 \
uintptr_t has_cxx_dtor : 1; // 表示当前对象有 C++ 或者 ObjC 的析构器(destructor),如果没有析构器就会快速释放内存 \
uintptr_t shiftcls : 33; /*MACH_VM_MAX_ADDRESS 0x1000000000*/ \
uintptr_t magic : 6; \
uintptr_t weakly_referenced : 1; // 对象被指向或者曾经指向一个 ARC 的弱变量,没有弱引用的对象可以更快释放 \
uintptr_t deallocating : 1; // 对象正在释放内存 \
uintptr_t has_sidetable_rc : 1; // 对象的引用计数太大了,存不下 \
uintptr_t extra_rc : 19 // 实际的引用计数, 我们打印出的retainCount 实际是extra_rc + 1
};
引用计数
源码
inline uintptr_t
objc_object::rootRetainCount()
{
if (isTaggedPointer()) return (uintptr_t)this;
sidetable_lock();
isa_t bits = LoadExclusive(&isa.bits);
ClearExclusive(&isa.bits);
if (bits.nonpointer) {
uintptr_t rc = 1 + bits.extra_rc;
if (bits.has_sidetable_rc) {
rc += sidetable_getExtraRC_nolock();
}
sidetable_unlock();
return rc;
}
sidetable_unlock();
return sidetable_retainCount();
}
可以看出retainCount的值,其实是1+extra_rc + sidetable_getExtraRC_nolock()的值.

- 解析:
tagpointer的情况不做引用计数的加减.
一般retain, 刚开始会走到 newisa.bits = addc(newisa.bits, RC_ONE, 0, &carry); 也就是extra_rc++; 如果表示不下了,就一半自己留着,一半放sidetable里
// sidetable上锁
sideTableLocked = true;
transcribeToSideTable = true;
newisa.extra_rc = RC_HALF; // 自己拿一半引用计数
newisa.has_sidetable_rc = true;
sidetable_addExtraRC_nolock(RC_HALF); // 放sideTable里一半.
// sidetable解锁
具体是放在SideTable里的refcnts里的.

- 解析:
release和retain类似, 先extra_rc - 1. 如果不够了, 从sidetable拿出RC_HALF, 然后借给 extra_rc.
为什么不全部存在sidetable里,而是分两部分存呢?
假如我们在现实生活中发了工资,是全存银行里吗? 我一般身上放点现金然后大部分存银行里. 感觉和这个是一个意思吧.
那为什么不都存在extra_rc里呢? 因为存不下.isa_t结构体里 extra_rc占的位置有限.
总结
- isa_t结构体的初始化,就是给类指针赋值.
- retainCount = 1 + extra_rc + sidetable_getExtraRC_nolock()
- retain其实是extra_rc++,如果存不下了,取一半(RC_HALF)放sidetable里.
- release也是类似, extra_rc--,如果没了,从sideTable里拿一半(RC_HALF)
