A person skilled in the art can understand that the structure shown in FIG. 1 is only a block diagram of a part of the structure related to the solution of the present application, and does not constitute a limitation on the terminal to which the solution of the present application is applied. The specific terminal may include a ratio. More or fewer components are shown in the figures, or some components are combined, or have different component arrangements. For example, the terminal further includes a network interface connected through a system bus, and the network interface may be an Ethernet card or a wireless network card, etc., for communicating with an external terminal, for example, for communicating with a server.

In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, a partial architectural diagram of a terminal is provided. The architecture system of the terminal includes a JAVA spatial layer 210, a local framework layer 220, and a kernel (Kernel) spatial layer 230. The freeze and thaw application 212 can be included on the JAVA spatial layer 210. The freeze and thaw application 212 can be used by the terminal to implement a freeze policy for each application, and freeze the related application of the background power consumption. The resource priority and restriction management module 222 and the platform freeze management module 224 are included in the local framework layer 220. The terminal can maintain different applications in different priorities and different resource organizations through the resource priority and limit management module 222, and adjust the resource group of the application according to the requirements of the upper layer to achieve optimized performance and save power. . The terminal freezes the task that can be frozen in the background by the platform freeze management module 224, and allocates the freeze layer to the preset different levels according to the length of the entry freeze time. Optionally, the freeze layer may include three, respectively: CPU limit Sleep mode, CPU freeze sleep mode, process deep freeze mode. The CPU restricts the sleep mode to limit the CPU resources occupied by the related processes, so that the related processes occupy less CPU resources, and the free CPU resources are tilted to other unfrozen processes, thereby limiting the occupation of CPU resources. It also limits the occupation of network resources and I/O interface resources by the process; CPU freeze sleep mode refers to prohibiting related processes from using the CPU, while preserving the occupation of memory, when prohibiting the use of CPU resources, the corresponding network resources and I The /O interface resource is also forbidden; the process deep freeze mode means that in addition to prohibiting the use of CPU resources, the memory resources occupied by the related processes are further recovered, and the recovered memory can be used by other processes. The kernel space layer 230 includes a UID management module 231, a Cgroup module 232, a Binder management module 233, a process memory recovery module 234, and a freeze timeout exit module 235. The UID management module 231 is configured to implement an application-based User Identifier (UID) to manage resources of a third-party application or freeze. Compared with the Process Identifier (PID) for process management and control, it is easier to uniformly manage the resources of a user's application through UID. The Cgroup module 232 is used to provide a complete set of Central Processing Unit (CPU), CPUSET, memory, input/output (I/O), and Net related resource restriction mechanisms. The Binder management module 233 is used to implement the priority control of the background binder communication. The interface module of the local framework layer 220 includes a binder interface developed to the upper layer, and the upper layer framework or application sends a resource restriction or frozen instruction to the resource priority and restriction management module 222 and the platform freeze management module 224 through the provided binder interface. . The process memory recovery module 234 is configured to implement the process deep freeze mode, so that when a third-party application is in a frozen state for a long time, the file area of the process is mainly released, thereby saving the memory module and speeding up the application next time. The speed at startup. The freeze timeout exit module 235 is configured to resolve an exception generated by the freeze timeout scenario. Through the above architecture, the application freezing method in various embodiments of the present application can be implemented.

In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, an application freeze method is provided for freezing an application running on a terminal. This embodiment is described by applying the method to the terminal shown in FIG. 1 as an example. The application freezing method includes steps 302-306. among them,

Step 302: Acquire a first application running on the terminal, and detect whether there is a second application that is in the same user identity as the first application.

The application (Application, APP) refers to a computer program for accomplishing one or more specific tasks. It runs in user mode and can interact with the user and has a visual user interface. In this embodiment, an Android operating system (Android OS) is taken as an example. In the Android operating system, each application has a user identification (Uid), and only two applications with the same Uid can share data. For example, in order to share data of two different applications, application A and application B can be set to the same Uid by setting shared Uid, and application A and application B can call each other during the running process. Data, if the application A is not the same as the Uid of the application B, then the application A and the application B cannot call the data arbitrarily. Understandably, in other operating systems, such as IOS, Symbian, etc., the same or corresponding data calling principles exist between different applications.

The first application running on the terminal can be a foreground application or a background application. Obtaining the Uid of the first application, detecting whether there is a second application that is the same as the Uid of the first application, so that it can determine whether the first application has a mutual calling relationship with another application, and thus can directly determine that the first application is directly frozen. Whether the application will affect other applications. It can be understood that the second application that is the same as the Uid of the first application may exist one or more. Similarly, the second application may be a foreground application or a background application.

Step 304: When the second application exists, detecting whether the second application is in a normal working state.

If there is a second application that is the same as the Uid of the first application, it indicates that the first application has a mutual calling relationship with other applications, and if the first application is to be frozen, the first application needs to be detected. The running state of the second application sharing the data is combined with the running state of the second application to freeze the first application.

In an embodiment, the terminal may detect the process of the second application according to a preset frequency or according to the detected user operation instruction, and obtain the current running state of the second application by detecting the process state of the second application. The running of an application is usually reflected by the operation of multiple related processes. The process involved in the running of the foreground application is the foreground process, and the process involved in the running of the background application is the background process. Optionally, the process identifier of the second application may be obtained, where the process identifier is used to uniquely identify the corresponding process, and may be composed of a combination of one or more of a preset number of digits, letters, or other characters. For example, the process ID "0001" can be used to indicate the process A, the "1234" is the process B, and the like, and the process status of the processes identified by the different processes can be detected, so that the second application is working in the background or in the foreground. status.

Step 306: When the first application is required to be frozen, if the second application is in a normal working state, the corresponding preset freezing policy is adopted according to the working state of the second application. An application freezes.

The normal working state includes, but is not limited to, a foreground running state and a background holding state. Specifically, the application corresponding to the operation page of the application displayed by the current display interface of the terminal is the foreground application currently running by the terminal. In this embodiment, only the application corresponding to the input focus is the foreground application, or only the application corresponding to the window object located at the top of the window stack of the operating system is the foreground application currently corresponding to the terminal. To determine whether the target application is a foreground application, obtain a window object corresponding to the target application, and determine whether the window object is located at the top of the stack of the operating system's window stack, and if so, the target application is a foreground application. If not, the application is running in the background as a background application. The foreground application works in the foreground running state, the background application works in the background running state; the background holding state refers to an application working in the background running state, but the user has the use requirement for the application, and the application needs to keep the background The running state, such as the music player, usually enters other program operation interface after the user starts the music playing. At this time, the music player works in the background to keep the state, and the concert continues to play.

The terminal may determine, according to the working state of the first application, whether the first application needs to be frozen. If the first application works in the background running state, and the user does not need to use the first application temporarily, the first application may be frozen. If it is detected that the second application is in a normal working state at this time, since the first application is the same as the Uid of the second application, directly freezing the first application may affect the operation of the second application, and according to the preset freezing policy Freezing the first application ensures that the first application and the second application do not work abnormally.

The application freezing method, by acquiring the first application running on the terminal, detecting whether there is a second application under the same user identity as the first application, when the second application exists Detecting whether the second application is in a normal working state, and when the first application is required to be frozen, if the second application is in a normal working state, according to the working state of the second application The first application is frozen by adopting a corresponding preset freezing policy, and the intelligent freezing operation can be implemented according to the working state of different applications under the identity of the same user, ensuring that no abnormality occurs during freezing, and the user experience is improved.

In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the detecting whether there is a second application under the same user identity as the first application includes the following steps 402-424. among them,

Step 402: Acquire a user identity assigned by the operating system to the first application.

By default, the Android operating system assigns each application a Uid with a different common level. If different applications need to call each other, only the Uids of different applications are the same, which makes different applications The shared data between them has certain security. Data cannot be obtained randomly between each application, and each application has only one Uid. The terminal reads the Uid of the first application and determines whether there is a second application that is the same as the Uid of the first application.

Step 404: When there is an application that shares data with the first application and has the same user identity, an application that can be called with the first application is used as the second application.

Further, the terminal detects whether there is an application that shares data with the first application, and when it detects that another application shares data with the first application, acquires the Uid of the application, if the Uid and the application of the application If the Uid of an application is the same, the application is considered to be a second application that can be called with the first application. This situation often occurs in different applications developed by the same company. For example, if a company makes two products and only wants to call each other, then you can use the shared Uid to force the Uid of the two software to be the same. In this case, you must use a signed document with the company's signature for data sharing. Optionally, it may also be a different application under the Shared Uid of the system's own software.

The application freezing method, by detecting whether there is a second application that is under the same user identity as the first application, and when the second application is present, may be combined with the running state of the second application for the first application. The program freezes, avoiding the second application from being unable to run normally due to directly freezing the first application, saving memory resources while ensuring that the application is not affected and improving the user experience.

In an embodiment, during the freezing of the first application, detecting whether the second application is in a normal working state, if the second application is in the foreground running state, freezing the first application, and maintaining the second application The running state is unchanged. When the first application needs to be frozen, and the second application that is the same as the Uid of the first application is detected to be in the foreground running state, if the first application is directly frozen at this time, the user Uid registered with the first application is the same. The second application B is also frozen based on the user group, so the freeze policy needs to be changed so that other applications that are the same as the user Uid logged in by the background application are no longer frozen based on the user group.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the freezing the first application, keeping the running state of the second application unchanged, includes steps 502-506. among them,

Step 502: Acquire all process identifiers under the user identity.

The process identification (Pid) represents the process ID, and the process (process) is a running activity of the program in the computer on a certain data set, which is the basic unit of the system for resource allocation and scheduling, and is the basis of the operating system structure. . The running of an application is usually reflected by the operation of multiple related processes. The process identifier includes a process identifier of the first application and a process identifier of the second application.

This embodiment reads all process IDs under the same Uid. For example, when the application "Jingdong" runs, two processes are generated: the first process 12041 and the second process 12607, and the path in the file library /proc/12041/cmdline The file content of the first process is displayed as "com.jingdong.app.mall", and the file content of the second process is displayed in the path of the file library /proc/12607/cmdline as "com.jingdong.app.mall:jdpush" Both processes contain the package name "com.jingdong.app.mall" of "Jingdong". By obtaining the process related to the package name "com.jingdong.app.mall", you can find the application "Jingdong" at runtime. All processes.

Step 504: Filter out the process identifier of the first application according to the file package name of the first application.

The file package name of the application is recorded in the file library, and the file package name of different applications can be queried by reading the file package name in the file library. For example, the path containing the "package name: process" form can be read by the path kernel /proc/pid/cmdline. According to the file package name of the first application, the process identifier containing only the first application file package name can be filtered, thereby obtaining the process identifier of the first application.

Step 506: Freeze the background process of the first application according to the process identifier of the first application.

Specifically, after obtaining the process identifier of the first application, the background process of the first application may be frozen according to the process identifier of the first application, for example, all /proc/pid/cmdline pids containing the first application package name are frozen. The related process of the first application is frozen by freezing the process without affecting the running state of the second application that is the same as the Uid of the first application.

In an embodiment, during the freezing of the first application, detecting whether the second application is in a normal working state, if the second application is in a foreground running state, and the second application is dependent on the first application , keeping the running state of the first application and the second application unchanged.

Among them, the dependency representation indicates that an application needs to utilize data of another application or multiple applications in order to smoothly implement the relationship of execution of the one application. There are two applications with dependencies, namely the dependent application and the dependent application, and the terminal will detect the background application to be used by the first application as the second application. When the first application is dependent by the second application under the same Uid, the first application and the second application are not frozen.

For example, the application A depends on the application B, or the application B is dependent on the application A, that is, the application A needs to utilize the data of the application B to implement the execution of the application A. At this time, the application A is the second application that depends on, and application B is the first application. Understandably, the dependent application may also be the first application, and the second application may be the background application. The terminal can detect from the background application collection to query whether there is an application that is dependent on the first application.

In an embodiment, during the freezing of the first application, detecting whether the second application is in a normal working state, and if the second application is in an abnormal working state, freezing when the first application needs to be frozen The first application and the second application under the same user identity.

The application freezing method provided by the embodiment, when the second application is in the foreground running state, freezes the first application, and keeps the running state of the second application unchanged; if the second application is in the foreground Running state, and the second application keeps the running state of the first application and the second application unchanged when the first application depends on the first application; if the second application is in an abnormal working state, the first application needs to be frozen When the program is frozen, the first application and the second application under the same user identity are frozen. It can intelligently combine the working states of different applications under the same user identity to achieve the freezing method of the application, increase the freezing range, and better optimize the system resources.

In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, before the freezing of the first application according to the preset freeze policy, the following steps 602-604 are further included. among them,

Step 602: Detect operation information acting on the first application; the operation information includes an operation mode and an operation time point.

When the application is opened on the terminal, the application will listen to the operation information input by the user. It should be noted that the operation information includes the operation mode and operation time point input by the user. The operation mode includes at least an input operation mode such as a button, a voice, a touch, a fingerprint, and a scan. At the same time, when the operation information input by the user is received, the current input operation time point is also obtained. For example, when an application is opened, it monitors all input information of the user, such as voice, touch, and other input modes, when the user is using the application, and also records the input corresponding to the current input mode. Time point, such as voice input - 20:00: 00; touch input - 20:00: 01 and so on.

Step 604: Determine, according to the operation information, whether the current time needs to freeze the first application.

Each application corresponds to one or more freeze conditions, and the corresponding freeze condition can be determined according to the operation mode of receiving the user input. The operation mode corresponds to a freeze condition. For example, the freeze condition corresponding to the touch operation mode is the first freeze condition, the freeze condition corresponding to the voice operation mode is the second freeze condition, and the freeze condition corresponding to the scan operation mode is The third freezing condition and so on. That is, each operation mode that each application can reach can correspond to a freeze condition.

Further, the freezing condition is a time condition, and a time freezing condition corresponding to each operation mode may be set, and the time freezing condition may be understood to be that when a certain operation information is not monitored within the preset time period, the time freezing condition is considered to be satisfied. .

It should be noted that the operation mode of each application is different, and the freezing conditions corresponding to the same operation mode of different applications may be the same or different.

According to the preset mapping relationship, according to the operation information of the monitoring, it can be determined whether the current application needs to freeze the first application.

In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, the determining, according to the operation information, whether the current time needs to freeze the first application includes the following steps 702-704. among them,

Step 702: Acquire the operation information that is closest to the current time, and record the time interval of the operation time point of the operation information from the current time.

When the application on the terminal is running, the terminal monitors the operation information input by the user, and the operation mode includes at least an input operation mode such as a button, a voice, a touch, a fingerprint, and a scan. At the same time, when the operation information input by the user is received, the current input operation time point is also obtained.

The latest operation information may be operation information corresponding to the operation time point of the shortest time interval between the current time and the operation information input by the user from the start of the current application.

If the current time is 20:30:00 in the evening, the foreground application of the terminal is running the first application, and the user operates the display page of the application during the process of using the first application, and the terminal monitors the user in real time. Input operation information. At the current time (20:30:00), the terminal will obtain the operation information (operation mode and operation time point) that was last monitored from the current time (20:30:00). If the latest operation information is used, the operation mode For the touch operation mode, the operation time point is 20:20:00, and the time interval from the current time can be obtained, and the time interval is 10 minutes.

Step 704: When the time interval meets the preset freeze condition, the first application needs to be frozen.

Specifically, the preset freeze condition may be a time condition, and each application runs in the foreground with a different historical running time, and the operation mode of receiving the user input may also be different, and the corresponding freezing condition may be set for each application. For example, the first application works in the foreground running state, and the freezing condition can be divided according to the received operation mode. If the first application does not hear the touch operation within the first preset duration, the first freezing is satisfied. a condition, wherein the first preset duration is related to the frequency of use in the historical operation record, and when the first preset duration is greater than a preset multiple of the usage frequency of the touch operation mode (120 times/minute), it may be determined that Within a preset duration, the touch operation mode will not be generated again, and it can be determined that the user is not currently using the first application currently running, and the first application needs to be frozen.

Optionally, when the first application works in the foreground running state, if the voice operation is not monitored within the second preset duration, the second freezing condition is met. The second preset duration is related to the frequency of use in the historical operation record. When the second preset duration is greater than the preset multiple of the voice operation mode (1 time/5 minutes), it may be determined that the second During the preset duration, the voice operation mode will not be generated again, indicating that the user is not currently using the first application currently running, and the first application needs to be frozen.

It should be noted that the first preset duration and the second preset duration may be set according to user requirements, and are not further limited herein.

In an embodiment, the preset freeze condition may further include detecting whether there is a user, and when the time interval satisfies the preset freeze condition, it may be determined that the user does not operate the application, and the terminal detects the current Whether the visible area of the terminal is a face image can determine whether there is a user in front of the current terminal. The visible area can be understood as the area where the user can normally use the terminal, and can also be understood as the distance between the user and the terminal, which is the comfortable distance of the user using the terminal.

Specifically, the face recognition technology can be used to detect whether a person exists before the terminal. Face recognition is a biometric recognition technology based on human facial feature information for identification. Using a camera or camera (front camera) to capture an image or video stream containing a face image, and automatically detect and track the face image in the image, and then perform a series of related techniques on the face of the detected face image, usually Also known as portrait recognition, face recognition. If the face image is recognized by the terminal, it indicates that the user is viewing the display area of the terminal, but the user does not operate the terminal; if there is no face image, it indicates that no user is currently using the terminal, and the user can freeze the An application. When there is no face image, it indicates that the current user has been away from the terminal, and the currently running first application can be frozen to save power.

In one embodiment, the application freezing method further includes: obtaining a defrosting instruction for thawing the first application; detecting whether biometric information in the defrosting instruction matches a preset biometric; When the biometric information in the thawing instruction matches the preset biometric, the first application is thawed.

That is, when the first application is required to be thawed after the first application is frozen, it is necessary to acquire a thaw instruction input by the user. The defrosting command includes biometric information, wherein the biometric information may be fingerprint information, iris information, voiceprint information, facial information, and the like.

It should be noted that different applications can set different biometric information, and can also set the same biometric information, and can be customized according to the needs of the user.

When the biometric information in the thaw instruction matches the preset biometric information, the background application is thawed. During the thawing operation, the defrosting operation of the first application may also be implemented according to the freezing strategy to set the corresponding defrosting strategy.

It should be understood that although the various steps in the flowcharts of FIGS. 3-7 are sequentially displayed as indicated by the arrows, these steps are not necessarily performed in the order indicated by the arrows. Except as explicitly stated herein, the execution of these steps is not strictly limited, and the steps may be performed in other orders. Moreover, at least some of the steps in FIGS. 3-7 may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages, which are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, these sub-steps or stages The order of execution is not necessarily performed sequentially, but may be performed alternately or alternately with at least a portion of other steps or sub-steps or stages of other steps.
