注意
继续上文。
到目前为止，板子已经可以起来了，接下来就可以针对板子的情况移植驱动程序了。这个放在以后再做，下面是我折腾过程中得到的一些知识，分享一下。
一、设备树反编译
在内核目录下当我们执行make dtbs后，就会在arch/arm/boot/dts下生成一些.dtb文件，那这个文件里是什么东西呢？我们可以用dtc命令反编译这些dtb文件，这里的可执行程序dtc在Linux内核源码中已经提供了，具体路径是：scripts/dtc/，可以使用下面的命令从Linux源码中编译出这个工具：
make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- ARCH=arm scripts
这样就会在scripts/dtc下生成可执行程序dtc。
当然，如果没有Linux源码，也可以使用apt-get命令安装这个工具，命令如下：
sudo apt-get install device-tree-compiler
下面以exynos4412-tiny4412.dtb为例：
命令：
dtc -I dtb -O dts -o tiny4412.dts arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos4412-tiny4412.dtb
然后就会生成反编译后的文件 tiny4412.dts，部分内容如下：
/dts-v1/;
/ {
#address-cells = <;0x1>;
#size-cells = <;0x1>;
interrupt-parent = <;0x1>;
compatible = "friendlyarm,tiny4412", "samsung,exynos4412", "samsung,exynos4";
model = "FriendlyARM TINY4412 board based on Exynos4412";
chosen {
stdout-path = "/serial@13800000";
bootargs = "root=/dev/ram0 rw rootfstype=ext4 console=ttySAC0,115200 init=/linuxrc earlyprintk";
};
aliases {
spi0 = "/spi@13920000";
spi1 = "/spi@13930000";
spi2 = "/spi@13940000";
i2c0 = "/i2c@13860000";
i2c1 = "/i2c@13870000";
i2c2 = "/i2c@13880000";
i2c3 = "/i2c@13890000";
i2c4 = "/i2c@138A0000";
i2c5 = "/i2c@138B0000";
i2c6 = "/i2c@138C0000";
i2c7 = "/i2c@138D0000";
i2c8 = "/i2c@138E0000";
csis0 = "/camera/csis@11880000";
csis1 = "/camera/csis@11890000";

serial1 = "/serial@13810000";
serial2 = "/serial@13820000";
serial3 = "/serial@13830000";
pinctrl0 = "/pinctrl@11400000";
pinctrl1 = "/pinctrl@11000000";
pinctrl2 = "/pinctrl@03860000";
pinctrl3 = "/pinctrl@106E0000";
fimc-lite0 = "/camera/fimc-lite@12390000";
fimc-lite1 = "/camera/fimc-lite@123A0000";
mshc0 = "/mmc@12550000";
};
memory {
device_type = "memory";
reg = <0x40000000 0x40000000>;
};
clock-controller@03810000 {
compatible = "samsung,exynos4210-audss-clock";
reg = <0x3810000 0xc>;
#clock-cells = <;0x1>;
linux,phandle = <;0x2>;
phandle = <;0x2>;
};
i2s@03830000 {
这个方法对于学习设备树很有帮助。
二、在u-boot打印信息
在u-boot中很多文件中是通过debug(… …)来打印信息，默认情况下这些log是打印不出来的。这个函数的定义是在include/common.h中：
#ifdef DEBUG
#define debug(fmt,args...) printf (fmt ,##args)
#define debugX(level,fmt,args...) if (DEBUG>=level) printf(fmt,##args);
#else
#define debug(fmt,args...)
#define debugX(level,fmt,args...)
#endif /* DEBUG */
所以可以在调用debug函数的C文件的最上面添加 #define DEBUG 即可。这个方法在Linux内核以及Android当中也很常用。
三、打开Linux内核启动早期的log
有时会遇到当在u-boot中执行完bootm后，打印出start kernel后串口就没有再输出任何信息了。此时就需要打开内核早期的log：
make menuconfig
Kernel hacking --->
[*] Kernel low-level debugging functions (read help!)
Kernel low-level debugging port (Use Samsung S3C UART 0 for low-level debug)
[*] Early printk
对于earlyprintk，还需要在bootargs中添加参数earlyprintk才能生效，有了上面这几个配置，会有下面几个宏生效：
CONFIG_DEBUG_LL=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_S3C_UART0=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE="debug/exynos.S"
CONFIG_DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS=y
CONFIG_UNCOMPRESS_INCLUDE="debug/uncompress.h"
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=y
关于earlyprintk的解析在文件arch/arm/kernel/early_printk.c中：
1: extern void printch(int);
2:
3: static void early_write(const char *s, unsigned n)
4: {
5: while (n-- >; 0) {
6: if (*s == '\n')
7: printch('\r');
8: printch(*s);
9: s++;
10: }
11: }
12:
13: static void early_console_write(struct console *con, const char *s, unsigned n)
14: {
15: early_write(s, n);
16: }
17:
18: static struct console early_console_dev = {
19: .name = "earlycon",
20: .write = early_console_write,
21: .flags = CON_PRINTBUFFER | CON_BOOT,
22: .index = -1,
23: };
24:
25: static int __init setup_early_printk(char *buf)
26: {
27: early_console = &;early_console_dev;
28: register_console(&;early_console_dev);
29: return 0;
30: }
31:
32: early_param("earlyprintk", setup_early_printk);
其中printch都是通过汇编语言实现的。
在arch/arm/Kconfig.debug中可以看到：
config DEBUG_LL
bool "Kernel low-level debugging functions (read help!)"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Say Y here to include definitions of printascii, printch, printhex
in the kernel. This is helpful if you are debugging code that
executes before the console is initialized.
config DEBUG_S3C_UART0
depends on PLAT_SAMSUNG
select DEBUG_EXYNOS_UART if ARCH_EXYNOS
select DEBUG_S3C24XX_UART if ARCH_S3C24XX
select DEBUG_S5PV210_UART if ARCH_S5PV210
bool "Use Samsung S3C UART 0 for low-level debug"
help
Say Y here if you want the debug print routines to direct
their output to UART 0. The port must have been initialised
by the boot-loader before use.
config DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE
string
……
default "debug/exynos.S" if DEBUG_EXYNOS_UART
config EARLY_PRINTK
bool "Early printk"
depends on DEBUG_LL
help
Say Y here if you want to have an early console using the
kernel low-level debugging functions. Add earlyprintk to your
kernel parameters to enable this console.
从上面的信息我们可以知道：
- 在串口终端尚未注册时，内核定义了printascii、printch以及printhex用于调试；
- early console使用的也是上面定义的函数，需要在传递给内核的参数中添加earlyprintk参数
- Linux内核早期的print函数的输出串口要跟u-boot下使用的一致，即内核不再负责初始化了，让u-boot来做，所以二者一定要一致，否则那些print函数以及earlyprintk都没法输出信息；
- 可以参考arch/arm/kernel/debug.S，printascii、printch以及printhex都是在这里定义的；
- 在kernel进入C函数（start_kernel）后可以调用early_print来打印信息，它是在arch/arm/kernel/setup.c中定义的：
1: void __init early_print(const char *str, ...)
2: {
3: extern void printascii(const char *);
4: char buf[256];
5: va_list ap;
6:
7: va_start(ap, str);
8: vsnprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), str, ap);
9: va_end(ap);
10:
11: #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_LL
12: printascii(buf);
13: #endif
14: printk("%s", buf);
15: }
可以看到，early_print也会调用printascii和printk，意思是用early_print打印的信息可能会重复出现在终端上（printk会缓冲一部分,当bootconsole注册后，会将printk缓冲区中的内容输出）。
上面所说的打印函数只能在内核自解压后的函数中才能使用，那么内核自解压过程中的信息是不是也可以打印呢？可以，内核自解压相关的文件在arch/arm/boot/compressed/下面，我们所熟知的：
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.
就是这个目录下的代码打印出来的，具体代码如下：
arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.c
1: void
2: decompress_kernel(unsigned long output_start, unsigned long free_mem_ptr_p,
3: unsigned long free_mem_ptr_end_p,
4: int arch_id)
5: {
6: ......
7: putstr("Uncompressing Linux...");
8: ret = do_decompress(input_data, input_data_end - input_data,
9: output_data, error);
10: ......
11: putstr(" done, booting the kernel.\n");
12: }
其中，putstr的定义如下:
1: static void putstr(const char *ptr)
2: {
3: char c;
4:
5: while ((c = *ptr++) != '\0') {
6: if (c == '\n')
7: putc('\r');
8: putc(c);
9: }
10:
11: flush();
12: }
putc是汇编实现的，arch/arm/boot/compressed/debug.S：
1: #include CONFIG_DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE
2:
3: ENTRY(putc)
4: addruart r1, r2, r3
5: waituart r3, r1
6: senduart r0, r1
7: busyuart r3, r1
8: mov pc, lr
9: ENDPROC(putc)
10:
11:
其中addruart的实现因soc的不同而不同，对于exynos4412，它的实现是（arch/arm/include/debug/exynos.S）：
1: .macro addruart, rp, rv, tmp
2: mrc p15, 0, \tmp, c0, c0, 0
3: and \tmp, \tmp, #0xf0
4: teq \tmp, #0xf0 @@ A15
5: ldreq \rp, =EXYNOS5_PA_UART
6: movne \rp, #EXYNOS4_PA_UART @@ EXYNOS4
7: ldr \rv, =S3C_VA_UART
8: CONFIG_DEBUG_S3C_UART != 0
9: add \rp, \rp, #(0x10000 * CONFIG_DEBUG_S3C_UART)
10: add \rv, \rv, #(0x10000 * CONFIG_DEBUG_S3C_UART)
11: if
12: .endm
这个函数的目的就是获得控制调试uart的寄存器的物理基地址(rp)和虚拟基地址(rv),这里也没有初始化uart的代码，所以必须跟u-boot使用的串口一致。
四、在内核自解压时dump内存
这是在调试设备树在内存中的镜像被自解压后的内核覆盖时发现的。下面是使用方法：
- 首先需要按照上面的一节配置内核打开那几个宏
- 修改arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S，如下：
1: diff --git a/arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S b/arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S
2: index 06e983f..7ecde2e 100644

可以使用kputc打印出一个字符，kphex用于打印一个指定位宽的十六进制数，将需要dump的内粗地址存放入r0，然后调用memdump即可，memdump会dump出256B的内容。u-boot在跳转到内核的时候传递三个参数，分别给了r0、r1、r2，在没有设备树之前，传给r0,r1和r2的分别是0，machid以及u-boot传给Linux内核参数的地址（如0x40000100）,在有了设备树之后，传给r0的是0，传给r1的值无所谓，传给r2的是设备树镜像在内存中的地址。效果如下：

可以看到 Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.前后就是dump出的设备树的内容（大小端 可能有些问题）.
五、CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB
这个宏是Linux内核中的，它的作用是支持zImage+dtb的启动方式。为什么要有种方式呢？因为很多厂家都有自己的bootloader，但是这些bootloader并不都一定支持设备树，为了实现支持设备树启动，就引入了这种启动方式，即将编译出的zImage和编译出的设备树镜像文件拼成一个新的镜像，在内核的自解压代码中会识别到，不会出现自解压时导致设备树被覆盖，具体实现如下（arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S）
mov r5, #0 @ init dtb size to 0
#ifdef CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB
/*
* r0 = delta
* r2 = BSS start
* r3 = BSS end
* r4 = final kernel address (possibly with LSB set)
* r5 = appended dtb size (still unknown)
* r6 = _edata
* r7 = architecture ID
* r8 = atags/device tree pointer
* r9 = size of decompressed image
* r10 = end of this image, including bss/stack/malloc space if non XIP
* r11 = GOT start
* r12 = GOT end
* sp = stack pointer
*
* if there are device trees (dtb) appended to zImage, advance r10 so that the
* dtb data will get relocated along with the kernel if necessary.

拼接方法：
cat zImage dts/exynos4412-tiny4412.dtb > dtbImage
也可以修改内核编译系统，在编译完成后自动实现拼接，可以参考下面的博文实现：
http://www.cnblogs.com/pengdonglin137/p/5134364.html
下面是使用dtbImage启动的方法：
1、修改设备树 arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos4412-tiny4412.dts

2、编译设备树 make dtbs，将生成的.dtb跟zImag拼接起来生成dtbImage
3、使用ramdisk启动，目前不能使用ramdisk.img，还不知道为什么。
4、启动开发板，进入u-boot命令行模式，执行如下命令：
在u-boot里执行下载dtbImage的命令： dnw 0x40008000
在开发机上执行： dnw dtbImage
在u-boot里执行下载ramdisk的命令：dnw 0x41000000
在开发机上执行： dnw ramdisk
启动内核： bootm 0x40008000 (u-boot不识别未压缩的ramdisk，ramdisk的地址在bootargs中指定为0x41000000，而且上面我们已经把ramdisk下载到0x41000000了)
