赶得早，不如赶得巧 - 古语
start_kernel
前几年穿越题材很火爆，如神话,宫,步步惊心等，可是这些剧都有一些共性，那就是总是穿越到了过去！ 为什么穿越一定要到过去呢？在我看来无非就是觉得回到过去题材丰富，因为在中国科幻题材很难火爆，题材有限！换言之就是，中国人总是喜欢活在过去，我祖上怎样怎样..我去年买了个表啊！在看看国外人家穿越基本都是现在穿到未来，未来穿到现在!就这么任性的穿来穿去，很少有穿越到过去的！美国人都在拯救世界，中国人希望穿越到过去征服世界！总是那么喜欢意淫！言归正传..
为什么要管start_kernel叫隧道之门呢，这个函数是承前启后将前辈BIOS or Boot的棒接过来后，进行了完美的变身，因为这才是被称之为操作系统的第一个函数！在这个函数后，所有操作系统的特性进行完全展开！这个世纪最伟大的操作系统之一Linux 就这么的映入眼帘！让我们开启操作系统的灵魂kernel的大门吧！
另外我建议你去买一本Linux 内核修炼之道 - 任老师的书，特别棒！

}
二、start_kernel 函数 - 我所关心的内容
三、start_kernel 函数 - 其它细节
static void __init boot_cpu_init(void)
{
/*返回启动的时候的CPU Number*/
int cpu = smp_processor_id();
/* Mark the boot cpu "present", "online" etc for SMP and UP case */
/*将此CPU Online*/
set_cpu_online(cpu, true);
/*将此CPU 激活*/
set_cpu_active(cpu, true);
/*将此CPU 设为父CPU*/
set_cpu_present(cpu, true);
/**/
set_cpu_possible(cpu, true);
}
void __init page_address_init(void)
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(page_address_htable); i++) {
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&page_address_htable[i].lh);
spin_lock_init(&page_address_htable[i].lock);
}
}
上述代码page_address_htable为存储页面映射后的对应信息！
具体请参考内存管理- 内核中的页
3、command_line 传参流程
setup_command_line(command_line); 函数，此函数将boot启动传到内核的参数或者自己的设置的参数保存到一个全局变量以及指定的内存单元中！
4、每CPU环境环境初始化
nr_cpu_ids是一个特殊的值，在单CPU 情况下是 1；而 SMP 情况下，又是一个全局变量，被find_last_bit函数配置。
接着到setup_per_cpu_areas函数，此函数设置了SMP 的每CPU存储区，为系统中的每个cpu的per_cpu 变量申请空间。
然后到smp_prepare_boot_cpu函数：
/* preload SMP state for boot cpu */
void smp_prepare_boot_cpu(void)
{
set_cpu_possible(0, true);
set_cpu_online(0, true);
cpu_set(0, cpu_callin_map);
}
关于每cpu变量以及多cpu唤醒等内容也会单独列出来进行仔细分析。
5、内存管理区列表初始化 - build_all_zonelists
/*
* Called with zonelists_mutex held always
* unless system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING.
*/
void __ref build_all_zonelists(pg_data_t *pgdat, struct zone *zone)
{
set_zonelist_order();
if (system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING) {
__build_all_zonelists(NULL);
mminit_verify_zonelist();
cpuset_init_current_mems_allowed();
} else {
/* we have to stop all cpus to guarantee there is no user
of zonelist */
#ifdef CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
if (zone)
setup_zone_pageset(zone);
#endif
stop_machine(__build_all_zonelists, pgdat, NULL);
/* cpuset refresh routine should be here */
}
vm_total_pages = nr_free_pagecache_pages();
/*
* Disable grouping by mobility if the number of pages in the
* system is too low to allow the mechanism to work. It would be
* more accurate, but expensive to check per-zone. This check is
* made on memory-hotadd so a system can start with mobility
* disabled and enable it later
*/
if (vm_total_pages < (pageblock_nr_pages * MIGRATE_TYPES))
page_group_by_mobility_disabled = 1;
else
page_group_by_mobility_disabled = 0;
printk("Built %i zonelists in %s order, mobility grouping %s. "
"Total pages: %ld\n",
nr_online_nodes,
zonelist_order_name[current_zonelist_order],
page_group_by_mobility_disabled ? "off" : "on",
vm_total_pages);
#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA
printk("Policy zone: %s\n", zone_names[policy_zone]);
#endif
}
dmesg显示Built 1 zonelists in Zone order, mobility grouping on. Total pages: 63663
上述代码有两个知识点：
a.内核内存区域管理大系统
b.NUMA - 非统一内存访问
此处具体内容放到内存管理那一章再去深入研究。
我们只要知道显示的页总数为63363.
Ps. 通过页总数可计算当前物理内存大小，页总数 * 页表大小 ＝ 页总大小
63663 * 65536(64k) / 1024 / 1024 / 1024 = 3927 / 1024 = 3.9G;
6、CPU热插拔支持 - page_alloc_init
void __init page_alloc_init(void)
{
hotcpu_notifier(page_alloc_cpu_notify, 0);
}
这么时髦的技术我就暂时不去研究了，附几篇高大上的文章！
