开始之前先说说开发环境：
VMware 8.0 ubuntu 11.10 arm-linux-gcc 4.5.1 u-boot-2012.10
和其他版本一样，UBOOT 2012.10的启动还是从Start.S开始的：

//（5）如果没定义CONFIG_NAND_SPL的话（也就是我们通常说的SDRAM启动）则进入
board_init_f这个函数，这是第一个C语言函数，里面进行：
env_init, /* initialize environment */
init_baudrate, /* initialze baudrate settings */
serial_init, /* serial communications setup */
console_init_f, /* stage 1 init of console */
display_banner, /* say that we are here */
print_cpuinfo, /* display cpu info (and speed) */
checkboard, /* display board info */
dram_init, /* configure available RAM banks */
各种初始化之后为uboot在SDRAM内存的空间做了配置。
配置如下图：
有些人可能发现，uboot的地址不是57e00000,是的，在uboot 2012.10版本中，内存分配给uboot的地址不一定就是57e00000。哪怎么程序能够运行呢？要明白，这是正在运行的这个uboot程序给内存做了分配，此时它还是处于57e00000开始的一段内存空间里，它给自己分配一个空间，这个空间的地址有可能不是程序最初运行的位置，但可以通过上面的重定位方法把自己复制到新的空间来。
/*
* We are done. Do not return, instead branch to second part of board
* initialization, now running from RAM.

（6）如果是NAND启动的话，那么就设置SP后跳到nand_boot函数里面进行复制代码到SDRAM，然后跳到
uboot在SDRAM的起始地址开始运行。否则执行下面的else语句，这是继上面(5)重定位后运行的程序
#else
ldr r0, _board_init_r_ofs
adr r1, _start
add lr, r0, r1
add lr, lr, r9
/* setup parameters for board_init_r */
mov r0, r5 /* gd_t */
mov r1, r6 /* dest_addr */
/* jump to it ... */
mov pc, lr
_board_init_r_ofs:
.word board_init_r - _start
#endif
（7）重新定位后，跳到board_init_r函数主要执行：
board_init();
mem_malloc_init (malloc_start, TOTAL_MALLOC_LEN);
flash_init();
nand_init(); /* go init the NAND */
/* initialize environment */
env_relocate();
stdio_init(); /* get the devices list going. */
jumptable_init();
console_init_r(); /* fully init console as a device */
/* set up exceptions */
interrupt_init();
/* enable exceptions */
enable_interrupts();
eth_initialize(gd->bd);
for (;;) {
main_loop();
}
程序到此就一直在这个main_loop()里面运行了。

总结：uboot2012.10总体的执行结构还是和老版本（例如uboot 1.1.6)一致的。主要不同的地方是在
lowlevel_init之后如果是NAND启动则先拷贝程序到SDRAM然后系统跳到SDRAM开始处重新运行；即使是在SDRAM中运行，程序也有可能需要重新定位。因为为内存分配空间时有可能分配给uboot的空间并不是我们指定的那个空间。相对于旧版本（uboot 1.1.6）而言，我认为这种处理程序结构比较清晰。
