# happens-before

## 一、happens-before简介

happens-before到底是个啥东西，在很多资料上都看到对他的叙述，比较抽象。其实happens-before是为了让程序员不必去理解复杂的重排序实现和具体规则，JMM（java内存模型）在上层提供了8条规则，这样我们就可以根据规则去推论跨线程的内存可见性问题，而不用去理解底层重排序的规则。

## 二、happens-before规则

1. 程序顺序规则：一个线程中的每个操作，happens-before于该线程中的任意后续操作。
2. 监视器锁规则：对一个锁的解锁，happens-before于随后对这个锁的加锁。
3. volatile变量规则：对一个volatile域的写，happens-before于任意后续对这个volatile域的读。
4. 传递性：如果A happens-before B，且B happens-before C，那么A happens-before C。
5. start()规则：如果线程A执行操作ThreadB.start()（启动线程B），那么A线程的ThreadB.start()操作happens-before于线程B中的任意操作。
6. join()规则：如果线程A执行操作ThreadB.join()并成功返回，那么线程B中的任意操作happens-before于线程A从ThreadB.join()操作成功返回。
7. 程序中断规则：对线程interrupted()方法的调用先行于被中断线程的代码检测到中断时间的发生。
8. 对象finalize规则：一个对象的初始化完成（构造函数执行结束）先行于发生它的finalize()方法的开始。
