【Java并发编程】之九:死锁

当线程需要同时持有多个锁时,有可能产生死锁。考虑如下情形:

​ 线程A当前持有互斥所锁lock1,线程B当前持有互斥锁lock2。接下来,当线程A仍然持有lock1时,它试图获取lock2,因为线程B正持有lock2,因此线程A会阻塞等待线程B对lock2的释放。如果此时线程B在持有lock2的时候,也在试图获取lock1,因为线程A正持有lock1,因此线程B会阻塞等待A对lock1的释放。二者都在等待对方所持有锁的释放,而二者却又都没释放自己所持有的锁,这时二者便会一直阻塞下去。这种情形称为死锁。

​ 下面给出一个两个线程间产生死锁的示例,如下:

public class Deadlock extends Object {  
    private String objID;  
  
    public Deadlock(String id) {  
        objID = id;  
    }  
  
    public synchronized void checkOther(Deadlock other) {  
        print("entering checkOther()");  
        try { Thread.sleep(2000); }   
        catch ( InterruptedException x ) { }  
        print("in checkOther() - about to " + "invoke 'other.action()'");  
  
        //调用other对象的action方法,由于该方法是同步方法,因此会试图获取other对象的对象锁  
        other.action();  
        print("leaving checkOther()");  
    }  
  
    public synchronized void action() {  
        print("entering action()");  
        try { Thread.sleep(500); }   
        catch ( InterruptedException x ) { }  
        print("leaving action()");  
    }  
  
    public void print(String msg) {  
        threadPrint("objID=" + objID + " - " + msg);  
    }  
  
    public static void threadPrint(String msg) {  
        String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();  
        System.out.println(threadName + ": " + msg);  
    }  
  
    public static void main(String[] args) {  
        final Deadlock obj1 = new Deadlock("obj1");  
        final Deadlock obj2 = new Deadlock("obj2");  
  
        Runnable runA = new Runnable() {  
                public void run() {  
                    obj1.checkOther(obj2);  
                }  
            };  
  
        Thread threadA = new Thread(runA, "threadA");  
        threadA.start();  
  
        try { Thread.sleep(200); }   
        catch ( InterruptedException x ) { }  
  
        Runnable runB = new Runnable() {  
                public void run() {  
                    obj2.checkOther(obj1);  
                }  
            };  
  
        Thread threadB = new Thread(runB, "threadB");  
        threadB.start();  
  
        try { Thread.sleep(5000); }   
        catch ( InterruptedException x ) { }  
  
        threadPrint("finished sleeping");  
  
        threadPrint("about to interrupt() threadA");  
        threadA.interrupt();  
  
        try { Thread.sleep(1000); }   
        catch ( InterruptedException x ) { }  
  
        threadPrint("about to interrupt() threadB");  
        threadB.interrupt();  
  
        try { Thread.sleep(1000); }   
        catch ( InterruptedException x ) { }  
  
        threadPrint("did that break the deadlock?");  
    }  
} 

运行结果如下:

​ 从结果中可以看出,在执行到other.action()时,由于两个线程都在试图获取对方的锁,但对方都没有释放自己的锁,因而便产生了死锁,在主线程中试图中断两个线程,但都无果。

​ 大部分代码并不容易产生死锁,死锁可能在代码中隐藏相当长的时间,等待不常见的条件地发生,但即使是很小的概率,一旦发生,便可能造成毁灭性的破坏。避免死锁是一件困难的事,遵循以下原则有助于规避死锁:

​ 1、只在必要的最短时间内持有锁,考虑使用同步语句块代替整个同步方法;

​ 2、尽量编写不在同一时刻需要持有多个锁的代码,如果不可避免,则确保线程持有第二个锁的时间尽量短暂;

​ 3、创建和使用一个大锁来代替若干小锁,并把这个锁用于互斥,而不是用作单个对象的对象级别锁;
