uboot分析之bootm_start

bootm命令执行过程中调用了bootm_start函数，这个函数比较重要，所以先分析它。

1.common/cmd_bootm.c

static int bootm_start(cmd_tbl_t *cmdtp, int flag, int argc, char *argv[]) { void *os_hdr; int ret; memset ((void *)&images, 0, sizeof (images));//images是一个bootm_headers_t类型的全局变量。见下面的分析。 images.verify = getenv_yesno ("verify");//从环境变量中检查是否要对镜像的数据（不是镜像头）进行校验。 bootm_start_lmb();//不做任何有意义的工作，除了定义# define lmb_reserve(lmb, base, size) /* get kernel image header, start address and length */寻找可用的内核镜像，见下面的分析。主要根据传入的参数检查镜像的合法性并获取信息。 os_hdr = boot_get_kernel (cmdtp, flag, argc, argv, &images, &images.os.image_start, &images.os.image_len);//返回指向内存中镜像头的指针 if (images.os.image_len == 0) { puts ("ERROR: can't get kernel image!\n"); return 1; } /* get image parameters */ switch (genimg_get_format (os_hdr)) {//根据镜像魔数获取镜像类型 case IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY: images.os.type = image_get_type (os_hdr);//镜像类型 images.os.comp = image_get_comp (os_hdr);//压缩类型 images.os.os = image_get_os (os_hdr);//操作系统类型 images.os.end = image_get_image_end (os_hdr);//当前镜像的尾地址 images.os.load = image_get_load (os_hdr);//镜像数据的载入地址 break; default: puts ("ERROR: unknown image format type!\n"); return 1; } /* find kernel entry point */ if (images.legacy_hdr_valid) {//如果镜像已经通过验证 images.ep = image_get_ep (&images.legacy_hdr_os_copy);//获取入口地址，填充images.ep 。 } else { puts ("Could not find kernel entry point!\n"); return 1; } if (((images.os.type == IH_TYPE_KERNEL) || (images.os.type == IH_TYPE_MULTI)) && (images.os.os == IH_OS_LINUX)) { /* find ramdisk */3250的配置中这个函数不做任何工作 ret = boot_get_ramdisk (argc, argv, &images, IH_INITRD_ARCH, &images.rd_start, &images.rd_end); if (ret) { puts ("Ramdisk image is corrupt or invalid\n"); return 1; } } images.os.start = (ulong)os_hdr;//指向内存中镜像的头地址 images.state = BOOTM_STATE_START;//标记引导状态 return 0; }

总结一下这个函数的主要工作：第一步校验镜像的正确性，获取镜像的信息（根据镜像头），第二部将第一步获取的信息存入images（主要是填充image_info_t类型的os成员）
