安装根文件系统式系统初始化的关键部分。Linux内核允许根文件系统放在很多不同的地方，比如硬盘分区、软盘、通过NFS共享的远程文件系统以及保存在ramdisk中。内核要在变量ROOT_DEV中寻找包含根文件系统的磁盘主设备号。当编译内核时，或者像最初的启动装入程序传递一个合适的“root”选项时，根文件系统可以被指定为/dev目录下的一个设备文件。

安装根文件系统分为两个阶段：
1，内核安装特殊rootfs文件系统，该文件系统仅提供一个作为初始安装点的空目录
start_kernel()->vfs_caches_init()->mnt_init()->init_rootfs()
[cpp]
/*初始化根文件系统*/
int __init init_rootfs(void)
{
int err;
/*初始化ramfs_backing_dev_info*/
err = bdi_init(&ramfs_backing_dev_info);
if (err)
return err;
/*注册rootfs_fs_type文件类型*/
err = register_filesystem(&rootfs_fs_type);
if (err)/*如果出错，销毁上面初始化的*/
bdi_destroy(&ramfs_backing_dev_info);
return err;
}
[cpp]
static struct backing_dev_info ramfs_backing_dev_info = {
.name = "ramfs",
.ra_pages = 0, /* No readahead */
.capabilities = BDI_CAP_NO_ACCT_AND_WRITEBACK |
BDI_CAP_MAP_DIRECT | BDI_CAP_MAP_COPY |
BDI_CAP_READ_MAP | BDI_CAP_WRITE_MAP | BDI_CAP_EXEC_MAP,
};
[cpp]
/**
* register_filesystem - register a new filesystem
* @fs: the file system structure
*
* Adds the file system passed to the list of file systems the kernel
* is aware of for mount and other syscalls. Returns 0 on success,
* or a negative errno code on an error.
*
* The &struct file_system_type that is passed is linked into the kernel
* structures and must not be freed until the file system has been
* unregistered.
*/
/*注册一个新的文件系统*/
int register_filesystem(struct file_system_type * fs)
{
int res = 0;
struct file_system_type ** p;
BUG_ON(strchr(fs->name, '.'));
if (fs->next)
return -EBUSY;
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&fs->fs_supers);
write_lock(&file_systems_lock);
/*从system_type链表中查找指定名称的file_system_type*/
p = find_filesystem(fs->name, strlen(fs->name));
if (*p)
res = -EBUSY;
else
*p = fs;
write_unlock(&file_systems_lock);
return res;
}
根文件系统定义如下
[cpp]
static struct file_system_type rootfs_fs_type = {
.name = "rootfs",
.get_sb = rootfs_get_sb,
.kill_sb = kill_litter_super,
};
下面看看他的两个函数
[cpp]
/*获得根目录的sb*/
static int rootfs_get_sb(struct file_system_type *fs_type,
int flags, const char *dev_name, void *data, struct vfsmount *mnt)
{
return get_sb_nodev(fs_type, flags|MS_NOUSER, data, ramfs_fill_super,
mnt);
}
[cpp]
int get_sb_nodev(struct file_system_type *fs_type,
int flags, void *data,
int (*fill_super)(struct super_block *, void *, int),
struct vfsmount *mnt)
{
int error;
/*获得sb结构*/
struct super_block *s = sget(fs_type, NULL, set_anon_super, NULL);
if (IS_ERR(s))
return PTR_ERR(s);
s->s_flags = flags;
/*这里实际调用ramfs_fill_super,对sb结构的属性进行设置*/
error = fill_super(s, data, flags & MS_SILENT ? 1 : 0);
if (error) {
deactivate_locked_super(s);
return error;
}
s->s_flags |= MS_ACTIVE;
simple_set_mnt(mnt, s);/*设置mnt和sb关联*/
return 0;
}
[cpp]
/**
* sget - find or create a superblock
* @type: filesystem type superblock should belong to
* @test: comparison callback
* @set: setup callback
* @data: argument to each of them
*/
/*查找或创建一个sb结构*/
struct super_block *sget(struct file_system_type *type,
int (*test)(struct super_block *,void *),
int (*set)(struct super_block *,void *),
void *data)
{
struct super_block *s = NULL;
struct super_block *old;
int err;
retry:
spin_lock(&sb_lock);
if (test) {
list_for_each_entry(old, &type->fs_supers, s_instances) {
if (!test(old, data))
continue;
if (!grab_super(old))
goto retry;
if (s) {
up_write(&s->s_umount);
destroy_super(s);
}
return old;
}
}
if (!s) {/*如果找不到sb,从内存中申请一个*/
spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
s = alloc_super(type);
if (!s)
return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
goto retry;
}
err = set(s, data);
if (err) {
spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
up_write(&s->s_umount);
destroy_super(s);
return ERR_PTR(err);
}
/*初始化得到的sb结构*/
s->s_type = type;
strlcpy(s->s_id, type->name, sizeof(s->s_id));
/*加入链表尾*/
list_add_tail(&s->s_list, &super_blocks);
list_add(&s->s_instances, &type->fs_supers);
spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
get_filesystem(type);
return s;
}

kill_litter_super的过程相反，这里不再写了。
构造根目录是由init_mount_tree()函数实现的，该函数在前面已经介绍过了。

2，安装实际根文件系统
关于__setup宏
__setup宏来注册关键字及相关联的处理函数，__setup宏在include/linux/init.h中定义，其原型如下：
__setup(string, _handler);
其中：string是关键字，_handler是关联处理函数。__setup只是告诉内核在启动时输入串中含有string时，内核要去
执行_handler。String必须以“=”符结束以使parse_args更方便解析。紧随“=”后的任何文本都会作为输入传给
_handler。下面的例子来自于init/do_mounts.c，其中root_dev_setup作为处理程序被注册给“root=”关键字：
__setup("root=", root_dev_setup);
比如我们在启动向参数终有
noinitrd root=/dev/mtdblock2 console=/linuxrc
setup_arch解释时会发现root=/dev/mtdblock2,然后它就会调用root_dev_setup
[cpp]
static int __init root_dev_setup(char *line)
{
strlcpy(saved_root_name, line, sizeof(saved_root_name));
return 1;
}
__setup("root=", root_dev_setup);
Start_kernel->rest_init->init-> prepare_namespace->
[cpp]
/*
* Prepare the namespace - decide what/where to mount, load ramdisks, etc.
*/
void __init prepare_namespace(void)
{
int is_floppy;
if (root_delay) {
printk(KERN_INFO "Waiting %dsec before mounting root device...\n",
root_delay);
ssleep(root_delay);
}
/*
* wait for the known devices to complete their probing
*
* Note: this is a potential source of long boot delays.
* For example, it is not atypical to wait 5 seconds here
* for the touchpad of a laptop to initialize.
*/
wait_for_device_probe();
/*创建/dev/ram0,必须得，因为initrd要放到/dev/ram0里*/
md_run_setup();
if (saved_root_name[0]) {/*saved_root_name为从启动参数"root"中获取的设备文件名*/
root_device_name = saved_root_name;
if (!strncmp(root_device_name, "mtd", 3) ||
!strncmp(root_device_name, "ubi", 3)) {/*如果设备名开头为这两个*/
mount_block_root(root_device_name, root_mountflags);
goto out;

goto out;

async_synchronize_full();
}
is_floppy = MAJOR(ROOT_DEV) == FLOPPY_MAJOR;
if (is_floppy && rd_doload && rd_load_disk(0))

}
到此，根文件系统的安装过程算是完成了，中间关于mount等系统调用将在后面分析。可以看出总的步骤主要有：
1，创建一个rootfs，这个是虚拟的rootfs，是内存文件系统（和ramfs），后面还会指向具体的根文件系统；
2，从系统启动参数中获取设备文件名以及设备号；
3，调用系统调用创建符号链接，并调用mount系统调用进程实际的安装操作；
4，改变进程当前目录；
5，移动rootfs文件系统根目录上得已经安装文件系统的安装点；
rootfs特殊文件系统没有被卸载，他只是隐藏在基于磁盘的根文件系统下了。
