一、简介
U-Boot与Linux内核的交互是单向的，U-Boot将各类参数传递给内核。由于他们不能同时运行，传递办法只能有一个个：U-Boot将参数放在某个约定的地方之后，在启动内核，内核启动后从这个地方获得参数。
1.1标记列表
除了约定好参数存放的地方外，还要规定参数的结构。Linux2.4.x以后的内核都以标记列表（tagged list）的形式来传递参数。标记就是一种数据结构；标记列表就是挨着存放的多个标记。标记列表以标记ATAG_CORE开始，以ATAGE_NONE结束。
标记的数据结构为tag，它是偶一个tag_header结构和一个联合体（union）组成。tag_header结构体表示标记的类型及长度，比如是表示内存还是表示命令行参数等。对于不同类型的标记使用不同的联合体，比如表示内存=时使用tag_men32，表示命令行时使用tag_cmdline。其定定义在include/asm-arm/setup.c文件中。
/* * The new way of passing information: a list of tagged entries */ /* The list ends with an ATAG_NONE node. */ #define ATAG_NONE 0x00000000 struct tag_header { u32 size; u32 tag; }; /* The list must start with an ATAG_CORE node */ #define ATAG_CORE 0x54410001 struct tag_core { u32 flags; /* bit 0 = read-only */ u32 pagesize; u32 rootdev; }; /* it is allowed to have multiple ATAG_MEM nodes */ #define ATAG_MEM 0x54410002 struct tag_mem32 { u32 size; u32 start; /* physical start address */ }; /* VGA text type displays */ #define ATAG_VIDEOTEXT 0x54410003 struct tag_videotext { u8 x; u8 y; u16 video_page; u8 video_mode; u8 video_cols; u16 video_ega_bx; u8 video_lines; u8 video_isvga; u16 video_points; }; /* describes how the ramdisk will be used in kernel */ #define ATAG_RAMDISK 0x54410004 struct tag_ramdisk { u32 flags; /* bit 0 = load, bit 1 = prompt */ u32 size; /* decompressed ramdisk size in _kilo_ bytes */ u32 start; /* starting block of floppy-based RAM disk image */ }; /* describes where the compressed ramdisk image lives (virtual address) */ /* * this one accidentally used virtual addresses - as such, * its depreciated. */ #define ATAG_INITRD 0x54410005 /* describes where the compressed ramdisk image lives (physical address) */ #define ATAG_INITRD2 0x54420005 struct tag_initrd { u32 start; /* physical start address */ u32 size; /* size of compressed ramdisk image in bytes */ }; /* board serial number. "64 bits should be enough for everybody" */ #define ATAG_SERIAL 0x54410006 struct tag_serialnr { u32 low; u32 high; }; /* board revision */ #define ATAG_REVISION 0x54410007 struct tag_revision { u32 rev; }; /* initial values for vesafb-type framebuffers. see struct screen_info * in include/linux/tty.h */ #define ATAG_VIDEOLFB 0x54410008 struct tag_videolfb { u16 lfb_width; u16 lfb_height; u16 lfb_depth; u16 lfb_linelength; u32 lfb_base; u32 lfb_size; u8 red_size; u8 red_pos; u8 green_size; u8 green_pos; u8 blue_size; u8 blue_pos; u8 rsvd_size; u8 rsvd_pos; }; /* command line: \0 terminated string */ #define ATAG_CMDLINE 0x54410009 struct tag_cmdline { char cmdline[1]; /* this is the minimum size */ }; /* acorn RiscPC specific information */ #define ATAG_ACORN 0x41000101 struct tag_acorn { u32 memc_control_reg; u32 vram_pages; u8 sounddefault; u8 adfsdrives; }; /* footbridge memory clock, see arch/arm/mach-footbridge/arch.c */ #define ATAG_MEMCLK 0x41000402 struct tag_memclk { u32 fmemclk; }; struct tag { struct tag_header hdr; union { struct tag_core core; struct tag_mem32 mem; struct tag_videotext videotext; struct tag_ramdisk ramdisk; struct tag_initrd initrd; struct tag_serialnr serialnr; struct tag_revision revision; struct tag_videolfb videolfb; struct tag_cmdline cmdline; /* * Acorn specific */ struct tag_acorn acorn; /* * DC21285 specific */ struct tag_memclk memclk; } u; }; #define tag_next(t)<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>((struct tag *)((u32 *)(t) + (t)->hdr.size)) #define tag_size(type)<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>((sizeof(struct tag_header) + sizeof(struct type)) >> 2) //???
二、设置标记存放的地址
2.1相关的结构体定义
结构体bd中保存了标记存放的地址。bd结构体是gd结构体的一项，我们先看gd结构体，其定义在include/asm-arm/global_data.h文件中：
typedef struct global_data { bd_t *bd;//开发板相关参数 ,结构体变量，参考u-boot.h unsigned long flags;//指示标志，如设备已经初始化标志等 unsigned long baudrate;//串行口通讯速率 unsigned long have_console; /* serial_init() was called 如果执行了该函数，则设置为1 */ unsigned long reloc_off; /* *Relocation Offset 重定位偏移，就是实际定向的位置与编译连接时指定的位置之差，一般为0 */ unsigned long env_addr; /* 环境参数地址*/ unsigned long env_valid; /* 环境参数CRC检验有效标志*/ unsigned long fb_base; /*帧缓冲区基地址*/ #ifdef CONFIG_VFD unsigned char vfd_type; /* 显示类型*/ #endif #if 0 unsigned long cpu_clk; /*cpu时钟*/ unsigned long bus_clk; //总线时钟 unsigned long ram_size; /* RAM size */ unsigned long reset_status; /* reset status register at boot */ #endif void **jt; /* jump table 跳转表，用来登记"函数调用地址"*/ } gd_t;
接来下我们来看一下bd结构体，这个结构体定义在include/asm-arm/u-boot.h文件中：
typedef struct bd_info { int bi_baudrate; /* 串口波特率*/ unsigned long bi_ip_addr; /* IP 地址*/ unsigned char bi_enetaddr[6]; /* MAC地址*/ struct environment_s *bi_env; ulong bi_arch_number; /* 板子的id*/ ulong bi_boot_params; /* 启动参数*/ struct /* RAM 配置*/ { ulong start; ulong size; }bi_dram[CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS]; #ifdef CONFIG_HAS_ETH1 /* second onboard ethernet port */ unsigned char bi_enet1addr[6]; #endif } bd_t;
2.2标记存放地址的设定
在board/smdk2410/smdk2410.c的board_init 函数设置了bi_boot_params 参数：
int board_init (void) { S3C24X0_CLOCK_POWER * const clk_power = S3C24X0_GetBase_CLOCK_POWER();//获取时钟和电源配置寄存器的第一个寄存器的地址，寄存器的地上是连续的 S3C24X0_GPIO * const gpio = S3C24X0_GetBase_GPIO();//获取GPIO配置寄存器的第一个寄存器的地址 /* to reduce PLL lock time, adjust the LOCKTIME register */ clk_power->LOCKTIME = 0xFFFFFF; /* configure MPLL */ clk_power->MPLLCON = ((M_MDIV << 12) + (M_PDIV << 4) + M_SDIV); /* some delay between MPLL and UPLL */ delay (4000); /* configure UPLL */ clk_power->UPLLCON = ((U_M_MDIV << 12) + (U_M_PDIV << 4) + U_M_SDIV); /* some delay between MPLL and UPLL */ delay (8000); /* set up the I/O ports */ gpio->GPACON = 0x007FFFFF; gpio->GPBCON = 0x00044555; gpio->GPBUP = 0x000007FF; gpio->GPCCON = 0xAAAAAAAA; gpio->GPCUP = 0x0000FFFF; gpio->GPDCON = 0xAAAAAAAA; gpio->GPDUP = 0x0000FFFF; gpio->GPECON = 0xAAAAAAAA; gpio->GPEUP = 0x0000FFFF; gpio->GPFCON = 0x000055AA; gpio->GPFUP = 0x000000FF; gpio->GPGCON = 0xFF95FFBA; gpio->GPGUP = 0x0000FFFF; gpio->GPHCON = 0x002AFAAA; gpio->GPHUP = 0x000007FF; /* arch number of SMDK2410-Board */ gd->bd->bi_arch_number = MACH_TYPE_SMDK2410; /* adress of boot parameters */ gd->bd->bi_boot_params = 0x30000100; icache_enable(); //调用cpu/arm920t/cpu.c中的函数 dcache_enable(); return 0; }
三、标记的设置
U-Boot通过bootm命令引导Linux内核，bootm命令对吼调用do_bootm_linux函数来引导内核。在do_bootm_linux函数就设置了标记，该函数的定义在lib_arm/armlinux.c中：
void do_bootm_linux (cmd_tbl_t *cmdtp, int flag, int argc, char *argv[], ulong addr, ulong *len_ptr, int verify) { ulong len = 0, checksum; ulong initrd_start, initrd_end; ulong data; void (*theKernel)(int zero, int arch, uint params); image_header_t *hdr = &header; bd_t *bd = gd->bd; #ifdef CONFIG_CMDLINE_TAG char *commandline = getenv ("bootargs"); #endif theKernel = (void (*)(int, int, uint))ntohl(hdr->ih_ep); 设置kernal加载地址 /* * Check if there is an initrd image */ 用户自定义了initrd之后需要加载进来，整个过程需要进行头部以及整个数据内部校，类似于内核的加载校验，这里省略了。 initial RAM disk Linux初始 RAM磁盘（initrd）是在系统引导过程中挂载的一个临时根文件系统，用来支持两阶段的引导过程。initrd文件中包含了各种可执行程序和驱动程序，它们可以用来挂载实际的根文件系统，然后再将这个 initrd RAM 磁盘卸载，并释放内存。在很多嵌入式Linux 系统中，initrd 就是最终的根文件系统。 if (argc >= 3) { SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (9); addr = simple_strtoul (argv[2], NULL, 16); printf ("## Loading Ramdisk Image at %08lx ...\n", addr); /* Copy header so we can blank CRC field for re-calculation */ #ifdef CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH if (addr_dataflash (addr)) { read_dataflash (addr, sizeof (image_header_t), (char *) &header); } else #endif memcpy (&header, (char *) addr, sizeof (image_header_t)); if (ntohl (hdr->ih_magic) != IH_MAGIC) { printf ("Bad Magic Number\n"); SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (-10); do_reset (cmdtp, flag, argc, argv); } data = (ulong) & header; len = sizeof (image_header_t); checksum = ntohl (hdr->ih_hcrc); hdr->ih_hcrc = 0; if (crc32 (0, (unsigned char *) data, len) != checksum) { printf ("Bad Header Checksum\n"); SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (-11); do_reset (cmdtp, flag, argc, argv); } SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (10); print_image_hdr (hdr); data = addr + sizeof (image_header_t); len = ntohl (hdr->ih_size); #ifdef CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH if (addr_dataflash (addr)) { read_dataflash (data, len, (char *) CFG_LOAD_ADDR); data = CFG_LOAD_ADDR; } #endif if (verify) { ulong csum = 0; printf (" Verifying Checksum ... "); csum = crc32 (0, (unsigned char *) data, len); if (csum != ntohl (hdr->ih_dcrc)) { printf ("Bad Data CRC\n"); SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (-12); do_reset (cmdtp, flag, argc, argv); } printf ("OK\n"); } SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (11); if ((hdr->ih_os != IH_OS_LINUX) || (hdr->ih_arch != IH_CPU_ARM) || (hdr->ih_type != IH_TYPE_RAMDISK)) { printf ("No Linux ARM Ramdisk Image\n"); SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (-13); do_reset (cmdtp, flag, argc, argv); } #if defined(CONFIG_B2) || defined(CONFIG_EVB4510) || defined(CONFIG_ARMADILLO) /* *we need to copy the ramdisk to SRAM to let Linux boot */ memmove ((void *) ntohl(hdr->ih_load), (uchar *)data, len); data = ntohl(hdr->ih_load); #endif /* CONFIG_B2 || CONFIG_EVB4510 */ /* * Now check if we have a multifile image */ } else if ((hdr->ih_type == IH_TYPE_MULTI) && (len_ptr[1])) { ulong tail = ntohl (len_ptr[0]) % 4; int i; SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (13); /* skip kernel length and terminator */ data = (ulong) (&len_ptr[2]); /* skip any additional image length fields */ for (i = 1; len_ptr[i]; ++i) data += 4; /* add kernel length, and align */ data += ntohl (len_ptr[0]); if (tail) { data += 4 - tail; } len = ntohl (len_ptr[1]); } else { /* * no initrd image */ SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (14); len = data = 0; } #ifdef DEBUG if (!data) { printf ("No initrd\n"); } #endif if (data) { initrd_start = data; initrd_end = initrd_start + len; } else { initrd_start = 0; initrd_end = 0; } SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS (15); debug ("## Transferring control to Linux (at address %08lx) ...\n", (ulong) theKernel); #if defined (CONFIG_SETUP_MEMORY_TAGS) || \ defined (CONFIG_CMDLINE_TAG) || \ defined (CONFIG_INITRD_TAG) || \ defined (CONFIG_SERIAL_TAG) || \ defined (CONFIG_REVISION_TAG) || \ defined (CONFIG_LCD) || \ defined (CONFIG_VFD) setup_start_tag (bd);设置各种tag，用于传递参数给Linux #ifdef CONFIG_SERIAL_TAG setup_serial_tag (¶ms); #endif #ifdef CONFIG_REVISION_TAG setup_revision_tag (¶ms); #endif #ifdef CONFIG_SETUP_MEMORY_TAGS setup_memory_tags (bd); #endif #ifdef CONFIG_CMDLINE_TAG setup_commandline_tag (bd, commandline); #endif #ifdef CONFIG_INITRD_TAG if (initrd_start && initrd_end) setup_initrd_tag (bd, initrd_start, initrd_end); #endif #if defined (CONFIG_VFD) || defined (CONFIG_LCD) setup_videolfb_tag ((gd_t *) gd); #endif setup_end_tag (bd); #endif /* we assume that the kernel is in place */ printf ("\nStarting kernel ...\n\n");打印信息 #ifdef CONFIG_USB_DEVICE { extern void udc_disconnect (void); udc_disconnect (); } #endif cleanup_before_linux ();启动之前先做一些清理工作cpu/arm920t/cpu.c 调用内核需要传递的参数如下： R0：必须为0 R1：机器类型ID，本机为ARM（bd->bi_arch_number） R2：启动参数列表在内存中的位置（bd->bi_boot_params） theKernel (0, bd->bi_arch_number, bd->bi_boot_params); }
3.1设置标记ATAG_CORE
标记列表以标记ATAG_CORE开始
static void setup_start_tag (bd_t *bd) { params = (struct tag *) bd->bi_boot_params; params->hdr.tag = ATAG_CORE; params->hdr.size = tag_size (tag_core); params->u.core.flags = 0; params->u.core.pagesize = 0; params->u.core.rootdev = 0; params = tag_next (params);//指向当前标记的末尾 }
3.2设置内存标记ATAG_MEM
在board/smdk2410/smdk2410.c的dram_init函数设置了bd的bi_dram结构体：
int dram_init (void) { gd->bd->bi_dram[0].start = PHYS_SDRAM_1; gd->bd->bi_dram[0].size = PHYS_SDRAM_1_SIZE; return 0; }
下面是这边内存标记的结构体：
static void setup_memory_tags (bd_t *bd) { int i; for (i = 0; i < CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS; i++) { params->hdr.tag = ATAG_MEM; params->hdr.size = tag_size (tag_mem32); params->u.mem.start = bd->bi_dram[i].start; params->u.mem.size = bd->bi_dram[i].size; params = tag_next (params); } }
3.3设置命令行标记ATAG_CMDLINE
命令行就是一个字符串，用来控制内核的一些行为。比如“root=/dev/mtdblock2 init=/linuxrc console=ttySAC0 ”表示根文件系统在MTD2分区上系统启动后执行的第一个程序为/linuxrc，控制台是ttySAC0 。
static void setup_commandline_tag (bd_t *bd, char *commandline) { char *p; if (!commandline) return; /* eat leading white space */ for (p = commandline; *p == ' '; p++); /* skip non-existent command lines so the kernel will still * use its default command line. */ if (*p == '\0') return; params->hdr.tag = ATAG_CMDLINE; params->hdr.size = (sizeof (struct tag_header) + strlen (p) + 1 + 4) >> 2; strcpy (params->u.cmdline.cmdline, p); params = tag_next (params); }
3.4设置ATAG_NONE
标记列表以标记ATAG_NONE介绍。
