这个函数一开始声明了一个宏DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR,宏的定义在u-boot-1.1.4\include\asm-arm\global_data.h文件中
#define DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR register volatile gd_t *gd asm ("r8")
用gd_t结构体定义了一个指针变量gd,使用用关键字register,指这个变量会频繁使用到,所以用cpu中的寄存器r8存放,提高速度.
gd_t类型在global_data.h文件定义如下:
typedef struct global_data {
bd_t *bd;
unsigned long flags;
unsigned long baudrate;
unsigned long have_console; /* serial_init() was called */
unsigned long reloc_off; /* Relocation Offset */
unsigned long env_addr; /* Address of Environment struct */
unsigned long env_valid; /* Checksum of Environment valid? */
unsigned long fb_base; /* base address of frame buffer */
#ifdef CONFIG_VFD
unsigned char vfd_type; /* display type */
#endif
#if 0
unsigned long cpu_clk; /* CPU clock in Hz! */
unsigned long bus_clk;
unsigned long ram_size; /* RAM size */
unsigned long reset_status; /* reset status register at boot */
#endif
void **jt; /* jump table */
} gd_t;
首先这里第一个位置定义了一个bd-t类型的指针变量bd,bd-t类型也在global_data.h中定义
typedef struct bd_info {
int bi_baudrate; /* serial console baudrate */
unsigned long bi_ip_addr; /* IP Address */
unsigned char bi_enetaddr[6]; /* Ethernet adress */
struct environment_s *bi_env;
ulong bi_arch_number; /* unique id for this board */
ulong bi_boot_params; /* where this board expects params */
struct /* RAM configuration */
{
ulong start;
ulong size;
} bi_dram[CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS];
} bd_t;
现在还不知道这些变量干什么用的,等下要用到时回头再看
接下来定义了一个指针的指针
init_fnc_t **init_fnc_ptr;
其中init_fnc_t在同样的\u-boot-1.1.4\lib_arm\board.c中定义为typedef int (init_fnc_t) (void);这里为什么把(init_fnc_t) (void)定义为int,不太明白.
__asm__ __volatile__("": : :"memory");
下面这段是网上抄来的:
/*------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
"__asm__"表示后面的代码为内嵌汇编,"asm"是"__asm__"的别名。"__volatile__"表示编译器不要优化代码,后面的指令保留原样,"volatile"是它的别名。括号里面是汇编指令。Memory描述符告知GCC:
1)不要将该段内嵌汇编指令与前面的指令重新排序;也就是在执行内嵌汇编代码之前,它前面的指令都执行完毕
2)不要将变量缓存到寄存器,因为这段代码可能会用到内存变量,而这些内存变量会以不可预知的方式发生改变,因此GCC插入必要的代码先将缓存到寄存器的变量值写回内存,如果后面又访问这些变量,需要重新访问内存。
如果汇编指令修改了内存,但是GCC 本身却察觉不到,因为在输出部分没有描述,此时就需要在修改描述部分增加"memory",告诉GCC 内存已经被修改,GCC 得知这个信息后,就会在这段指令之前,插入必要的指令将前面因为优化Cache 到寄存器中的变量值先写回内存,如果以后又要使用这些变量再重新读取。
使用"volatile"也可以达到这个目的,但是我们在每个变量前增加该关键字,不如使用"memory"方便
/*------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
gd = (gd_t*)(_armboot_start - CFG_MALLOC_LEN - sizeof(gd_t));
这里出现了前面的用gd_t结构体定义的gd指针变量,在这里初始化gd指针到指向的位置.
memset ((void*)gd, 0, sizeof (gd_t));清零gd指针指向的结构体
gd->bd = (bd_t*)((char*)gd - sizeof(bd_t));初始化bd指针到指向的位置
memset (gd->bd, 0, sizeof (bd_t));清零bd指针指向的结构体
monitor_flash_len这个变量可能是flash要受保护的长度(如果flash需要受保护的话)
下面这段循环执行init_sequence数组定义的函数:
for (init_fnc_ptr = init_sequence; *init_fnc_ptr; ++init_fnc_ptr) {
if ((*init_fnc_ptr)() != 0) {
hang ();
}
}
