网络模块初始化

网络模块的初始化顺序

系统启动初始化时，一旦进入start_kernel，则说明低级初始化已经完成，接下来是对各种设备和子系统的初始化，网络模块初始化流程的调用关系如下图(图片来自：《Linux内核源码剖析-tcp/ip实现》)：

在内核初始化过程中，初始化了很多模块，如图中的中断模块(init_irq)等。最后会启动init内核线程继续执行初始化，完成初始化之后，init内核现成将蜕变成用户进程。有关网络的初始化过程主要由sysctl_init和do_initcalls完成，前者主要完成对sysctl的初始化注册过程，后者的功能相对复杂，不只是对网络模块的初始化，只要运用了initcall技术的模块都会被初始化；

内核模块代码可以静态地连接到内核映像文件中，也可以动态的加载到内核空间中，通常，设备驱动程序和功能扩展模块都是在需要时动态加载的，有些协议族也作为内核模块动态加载，如ipv6、unix协议族等，而作为基本内核模块的ipv4则不能动态加载。

 

优化基于宏的标记

以e100为例，通过宏展开得到以下内容：

module_init(e100_init_module) –>__initcall(e100_init_module)–>device_initcall(e100_init_module)–>__define_initcall(e100_init_module, 6)–>static initcall_t __initcall_e100_init_module6 __used __attribute__((__section__(“.initcall6.init”))) = e100_init_module

 1 /*
 2  * initcalls are now grouped by functionality into separate
 3  * subsections. Ordering inside the subsections is determined
 4  * by link order. 
 5  * For backwards compatibility, initcall() puts the call in 
 6  * the device init subsection.
 7  *
 8  * The `id' arg to __define_initcall() is needed so that multiple initcalls
 9  * can point at the same handler without causing duplicate-symbol build errors.
10  *
11  * Initcalls are run by placing pointers in initcall sections that the
12  * kernel iterates at runtime. The linker can do dead code / data elimination
13  * and remove that completely, so the initcall sections have to be marked
14  * as KEEP() in the linker script.
