u-boot 2、配置

在上一篇的u-boot移植中，修改uboot目录下的Makefile文件，增加：

mx6q_hd300_config   : unconfig
@$(MKCONFIG) $(@:_config=) arm arm_cortexa8 mx6q_hd300 freescale mx6
并且调用make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- mx6q_hd300_config配置内核，那么配置过程会做那些操作呢？
1、make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- mx6q_hd300_config，实际就是执行@$(MKCONFIG) $(@:_config=) arm arm_cortexa8 mx6q_hd300 freescale mx6，根据Makefile的定义，这段话实际就是mkconfig mx6q_hd300 arm arm_cortexa8 mx6q_hd300 freescale mx6

mkconfig脚本内容如下(黄色为注释)：

   $0                  $1                     $2         $3                          $4                         $5                    $6

mkconfig     mx6q_hd300     arm      arm_cortexa8      mx6q_hd300     freescale        mx6

APPEND=no # Default: Create new config file
BOARD_NAME="" # Name to print in make output

while [ $# -gt 0 ] ; do
case "$1" in
--) shift ; break ;;
-a) shift ; APPEND=yes ;;
-n) shift ; BOARD_NAME="${1%%_config}" ; shift ;;
*)  break ;;
esac
done


[ "${BOARD_NAME}" ] || BOARD_NAME="$1"   //BOARD_NAME=mx6q_hd300

[ $# -lt 4 ] && exit 1
[ $# -gt 6 ] && exit 1

exit 0

总结：

(1)开发板的名称：BOARD_NAME

(2)创建了三个链接

作用：我的理解是不需要在u-boot的程序中，为每一个平台和board分别添加对应的头文件。例如：

#include <asm/config.h>   实际上：#include <asm-arm.h/config.h>

(3)config.mk：u-boot对应的硬件平台

(4)configs.h：

#include <configs/$1.h>

#include <asm/config.h>

如果在board目录下新建了一个开发板的目录，则在include/configs目录下也要创建一个<board_name>.h文件。u-boot没有类似于linux的可视化配置界面，要手动修改配置文件include/configs/<board_name>.h，来裁剪u-boot和设置U-boot的参数。
