linux 原始进程&内核线程

创建内核线程的接口为：

kernel_thread

/*
 * Create a kernel thread
 */
int kernel_thread(int (*fn)(void *), void *arg, unsigned long flags)
{
struct pt_regs regs;


memset(&regs, 0, sizeof(regs));


regs.bx = (unsigned long) fn;
regs.dx = (unsigned long) arg;


regs.ds = __USER_DS;
regs.es = __USER_DS;
regs.fs = __KERNEL_PERCPU;
regs.gs = __KERNEL_STACK_CANARY;
regs.orig_ax = -1;
regs.ip = (unsigned long) kernel_thread_helper;
regs.cs = __KERNEL_CS | get_kernel_rpl();
regs.flags = X86_EFLAGS_IF | X86_EFLAGS_SF | X86_EFLAGS_PF | 0x2;


/* Ok, create the new process.. */
return do_fork(flags | CLONE_VM | CLONE_UNTRACED, 0, &regs, 0, NULL, NULL);  共享调用进程的内存描述符以及页表。
}

linux 内核启动的第一个进程为0号进程，或者叫swapper 进程,就是idle进程。

0号进程的描述符存放在init_task 变量中。

init_task.c 

union thread_union init_thread_union __init_task_data =
{ INIT_THREAD_INFO(init_task) };


/*
 * Initial task structure.
 *
 * All other task structs will be allocated on slabs in fork.c
 */
struct task_struct init_task = INIT_TASK(init_task);
EXPORT_SYMBOL(init_task);

 struct task_struct init_task = INIT_TASK(init_task);

1号 进程由start_kernel 创建，

start_kernel->rest_init-

kernel_thread(kernel_init, NULL, CLONE_FS | CLONE_SIGHAND);
numa_default_policy();
pid = kernel_thread(kthreadd, NULL, CLONE_FS | CLONE_FILES);
kthreadd_task = find_task_by_pid_ns(pid, &init_pid_ns);
