在Windows CE 6.0中,内核(Kenerl)和OEM代码被分成oal.exe、kernel.dll和kitl.dll三个部分,其中启动代码(startup)和OAL层的实现部分不再与内核链接生成NK.exe,取而代之的是启动代码(startup)和硬件相关且独立于内核的OAL层的实现部分编译成oal.exe,而与内核相关且独立于硬件的OAL层代码包含在kernel.dll中;内核无关传输层(KITL)的支持代码从OAL层分离出来编译成kitl.dll。
从表面上看,好像只是代码重新组合了一下,从帮助文档中BSP的移植过程看好像也是这么一回事,实际上,整个Windows CE 6.0内核布局发生了很大的改变。Windows CE 6.0的启动过程也是如此,如果你想按照Windows CE 5.0的启动顺序去分析Windows CE 6.0的启动顺序,可能会走到一个死胡同。主要是因为Windows CE 6.0在启动过程中调用了kernel.dll和kitl.dll两个动态链接库的原因,而且Windows CE6.0不再编译生成KernKitlProf.exe内核文件。
从Windows CE 6.0的帮助文档可以看出,WinCE6.0的启动只与oal.exe和kernel.dll有关,至于kitl.dll,只有将操作系统编译成具有KITL功能时才用到。分析Windows CE 6.0的启动过程实际上找到编译oal.exe和kernel.dll的源码位置。
首先看一下将WinCE6.0编译成诸如WinCE5.0所说的基本内核情况,即kern.exe。对于oal.exe源码位置比较容易找到,因为oal.exe是启动代码与硬件相关的OAL层实现文件编译而成,所以只需在BSP的OAL目录中便能找到。而对于kernel.dll,在BSP目录结构中,基本上无法找到kernel.dll的编译文件,所以必须从其他方面着手。
下面为WinCE 6.0的编译日志输出文件:makeimg.out在文件复制过程的一部分:
Copying E:\WINCE600\OSDesigns\xsbase270\xsbase270\RelDir\XSBase270_ARMV4I_Release\oal.exe to E:\WINCE600\OSDesigns\xsbase270\xsbase270\RelDir\XSBase270_ARMV4I_Release\nk.exe for debugger Copying E:\WINCE600\OSDesigns\xsbase270\xsbase270\RelDir\XSBase270_ARMV4I_Release\kern.dll to E:\WINCE600\OSDesigns\xsbase270\xsbase270\RelDir\XSBase270_ARMV4I_Release\kernel.dll for debugger
从日志输出文件可以看出,在文件复制过程中,WinCE6.0编译器将oal.exe更名为nk.exe,而将kern.dll文件更名为kernel.dll,也就是说,kern.dll文件的实现部分就是kernel.dll的实现体。根据前面的分析,oal.exe是与硬件相关独立于内核的OAL层的实现部分,而kernel.dll为内核相关独立于硬件的OAL层的实现部分。同样可以从最后整合后的二进制配置文件ce.bib文件中看出端倪。

; @CESYSGEN ENDIF
而kern.dll动态库在整个Windows CE6.0中没有显式编译过程,即没有一个sources文件有kern.dll的编译过程,所以只能从操作系统的编译文件Makefile中寻找其编译过程。下面看一下$(_PUBLICROOT)\common\CESYSGEN\makefile中的部分内容:
nk::$(NK_COMPONENTS) $(NK_REPLACE_COMPONENTS)
@copy $(SG_INPUT_LIB)\oemstub.pdb $(SG_OUTPUT_OAKLIB)
@copy $(SG_INPUT_LIB)\oemstub.lib $(SG_OUTPUT_OAKLIB)
set TARGETTYPE=DYNLINK
set TARGETNAME=kern
set RELEASETYPE=OAK
set DLLENTRY=NKStartup
set DEFFILE=NO_DEF_FILE
set TARGETLIBS=
set SOURCELIBS=%%NKLIBS%% $(SG_INPUT_LIB)\nkmain.lib $(SG_INPUT_LIB)\fulllibc.lib
$(MAKECMD) /NOLOGO NOLIBC=1 kern.dll
从上述代码中可以发现,原来kern.dll动态库是从oemstub.lib编译而来,而且与nkmain.lib有关。
在理顺了上述文件的相互之间的关系之后,再来分析Windows CE 6.0的启动过程可能就比较容易啦。
在理清了上述文件的关系之后,便可以分析任意一款基于ARM微处理器的Windows CE 6.0的启动过程,现在以深圳亿道电子技术有限公司开发的基于PXA270 ARM开发平台为例,分析Windows CE 6.0操作系统启动过程。
1、Startup函数:
从Windows CE 6.0的帮助文档可以看出,WinCE6.0的启动只与oal.exe和kernel.dll有关,至于kitl.dll,只有将操作系统编译成具有KITL功能时才用到。分析Windows CE 6.0的启动过程实际上找到编译oal.exe和kernel.dll的源码位置。
oal.exe的通过Startup函数完成硬件的初始化。Startup.s代码与该硬件平台的Bootloader启动代码共用,其中PreInit函数主要完成将ARM处理器工作模式切换到管理员模式、同时关闭MMU,并检测系统启动原因,如果是热启动、即在该函数调用之前已经启动了Bootloader程序,相当基本硬件初始化已经完成,则直接跳转到OALStartUp函数中;否则需要进行硬件中断屏蔽、内存、系统时钟频率、电源管理等硬件的基本初始化过程。(具体过程见代码的分析)

2、OALStartUp函数:
在系统硬件初始化完毕之后,Startup调用OALStartUp函数,OALStartUp函数主要完成将OEMAddressTable表传递给内核;然后调用KernelStart函数跳转到内核OEMAddressTable表的主要作用表的每一个入口都定义了一个内存中的物理位置、内存的大小以及映射这物理地址的静态虚拟地址;
◆静态虚拟内存地址被定义在缓冲存储器的范围之内;
◆内核可以创建非缓冲的内存地址指向到相同的物理地址;
◆对于同一物理地址,既有一个缓冲的虚拟内存地址,也有一个非缓冲的虚拟内存地址;
◆OEMAddressTable最后必须以0结尾;
◆对于MIPS和SHx类型的CPU,物理地址与虚拟地址的映射由CPU完成,无需创建OEMAddressTable

3、KernelStart函数主要作用:
◆完成OEMAddressTable表中的物理地址到虚拟地址和虚拟地址到物理地址之间的映射;
◆对存储器页表和内核参数区存储空间(RAM或DRAM)进行清零处理。
◆读出CPU的ID号,内核需要根据该ID决定ARM的MMU处理,因为ARMV6和ARMV6之前的ARM处理器的MMU处理过程有所区别;
◆设置并开启MMU和Cache,因为在Startup函数关闭MMU和Cache;
◆设置ARM处理器工作模式的SP指针,ARM处理器共用7种不同的工作模式(USER、FIQ、IRQ、Supervisor、Abort、Undefined、System),除用户模式(USER)和系统模式(System)之外,其他5种工作模式都有具有特定的SP指针寄存器(ARM处理器称其为影子寄存器);
◆读取内核启动所需要的KDataStruct结构体;
◆调用ARMInit函数重新定位Windows CE内核参数pTOC和初始化OEMInitGlobals全局变量;
◆利用mov pc, r12指令跳转到kernel.dll的入口位置,即NKStartup函数中。

4、ARMInit函数:
在ARMInit之前,系统仍无法使用全局变量,因为系统的全局还在ROM区域,对于操作系统而言,出于安全考虑,只有XIP程序才有读取ROM区域数据的权利,对于大部分Windows CE 操作系统,只有将数据拷贝到RAM区域后才能进行读写,ARMInit函数中通过调用KernelRelocate函数对pTOC全局变量重新定位,定位之后,对内核启动所需要的KDataStruct结构体进行初始化,其中OEMInitGlobals便是交换oal.exe和kernel.dll之间的全局指针,ARMInit函数返回kernel.dll的入口位置。并在KernelStart函数最后利用mov pc, r12指令跳转到kernel.dll的入口位置,即NKStartup函数中。
$(_PRIVATEROOT)WINCEOS\COREOS\NK\LDR\ARM\arminit.c
LPVOID ARMInit (struct KDataStruct *pKData)
{
/* Initialize kernel globals */
KernelRelocate (pTOC);
/* The only argument passed to the entry point of kernel.dll is the address */
/* of KData, we need to put everything we need to pass to in in KData. */
pKData->dwTOCAddr = (DWORD) pTOC;
pKData->dwOEMInitGlobalsAddr = (DWORD) OEMInitGlobals;
SetOsAxsDataBlockPointer(pKData);
return FindKernelEntry (pTOC);
}
5、NKStartup函数:
硬件平台初始化完成后,oal.exe的启动任务基本完成,余下的启动工作由内核相关且独立于内核的OAL层实现体kernel.dll接管。kernel.dll主要作用:
◆从结构体参数KDataStruct * pKData提取内核启动时所必须的全局变量,同时初始化内核全局变量;
◆定位对Windows CE 6.0特有的OEMGLOBAL结构体的初始化函数OEMInitGlobals地址,该结构体构建了内核和OAL层之间进行通信的桥梁。在OEMGLOBAL结构体定义了OAL层所必须的函数,该结构体在oemglobal.c文件中被初始化,并被编译在OEMMain.lib和OEMMain_StaticKITL.lib两个库中,如果OAL链接这两个库,则必须要有该结构体中函数实现体;
◆通过调用ARMSetup设置物理地址和非缓冲的虚拟内存地址的映射、ARM中断向量以及内核模式所需要的堆栈。
◆调用OEMInitDebugSerial函数初始化调试串口;
◆调用OEMInit进行平台初始化;
需要注意的时,NKStartup函数调用OEMInitDebugSerial和OEMInit函数的过程与Windows CE 6.0之前的版本完全不同,这是因为在Windows CE 6.0以前的版本中,由于内核(kernel)、OAL和KITL编译在一个可执行的文件中,它们之间的共享变量只需简单利用extern关键字申明便可相互之间进行访问,而在Windows CE 6.0中,由于内核(kernel)、OAL和KITL被编译成不同的可执行文件,变量之间的相互访问无法使用extern关键字实现共享,即内核无法使用extern DWORD varX方法访问OAL层的变量varX,当然OAL层的实现体同样无法通过同样的方式访问内核变量。为实现内核和OAL访问共享信息,Windows CE 6.0定义了OEMGLOBAL和GLOBAL两个结构体。
在 Windows CE 6.0的内核启动时,OS找到OAL的入口位置,然后调用入口函数与全局块进行指针交换,这样内核才能使用OAL层中的信息,同样OAL层才能访问内核(kernel)导出的函数。
所以上述两个函数的调用实际上通过OEMGLOBAL结构体实现的。实际调用位置为$(_PRIVATEROOT)\winceos\coreos\nk\oemstub\oemstub.c中的OEMInitDebugSerial和OEMInit,这两个函数中通过OEMGLOBAL结构体指针访问OAL层中的OEMInitDebugSerial和OEMInit。
首先看一下将WinCE6.0编译成诸如WinCE5.0所说的基本内核情况,即kern.exe。对于oal.exe源码位置比较容易找到,因为oal.exe是启动代码与硬件相关的OAL层实现文件编译而成,所以只需在BSP的OAL目录中便能找到。而对于kernel.dll,在BSP目录结构中,基本上无法找到kernel.dll的编译文件,所以必须从其他方面着手。
调用KernelFindMemory()函数分割RAM区域,在Windows CE操作系统中,RAM空间主要分为存储内存和程序内存,存储内存主要为文件的存储空间,包括内核文件和复制到系统中所有目标文件,程序内存为运行程序时所需要的存储空间。

6、KernelSstart函数:
这里的KernelStart函数与前面的KernelStart函数的属于两个完全不同的函数,NKStartup函数中调用的KernelStart函数为$(_PRIVATEROOT)\WINCEOS\COREOS\NK\KERNEL\ARM\armtrap.s文件中的KernelStart函数,主要完成调用内核初始化函数KernelInit,并跳转到操作系统的第一个启动的任务。
LEAF_ENTRY KernelStart
ldr r4, =KData ; (r4) = ptr to KDataStruct
ldr r0, =APIRet
str r0, [r4, #pAPIReturn] ; set API return address
mov r1, #SVC_MODE
msr cpsr_c, r1 ; switch to Supervisor Mode w/IRQs enabled
CALL KernelInit ; initialize scheduler, etc.
mov r0, #0 ; no current thread
mov r1, #ID_RESCHEDULE
b FirstSchedule
ENTRY_END
7、KernelInit函数:
Windows CE 6.0的内核初始化函数同其他版本的内核初始化函数基本相近,主要完成在启动第一个线程前对内核进行初始化,主要包括API函数集初始化、堆的初始化、初始化内存池、进程初始化、线程初始化和文件映射初始化等操作。
void KernelInit (void)
{
#ifdef DEBUG
g_pNKGlobal->pfnWriteDebugString (TEXT("Windows CE KernelInit\r\n"));
#endif
APICallInit ();// setup API set
HeapInit ();// setup kernel heap
InitMemoryPool ();// setup physical memory
PROCInit ();// initialize process
VMInit (g_pprcNK);// setup VM for kernel
THRDInit ();// initialize threadsv
MapfileInit ();
#ifdef DEBUG
g_pNKGlobal->pfnWriteDebugString (TEXT("Scheduling the first thread.\r\n"));
#endif
}
8、FirstSchedule:
FirstSchedule函数为Windows CE操作系统启动过程中最后无条件跳转的一个函数,windows CE进行第一个调度,实际为一个空闲线程,因为windows CE系统还没有完成启动,只有当windows CE完全启动并进入稳定状态,然后启动文件系统filesys.dll,设备管理device.dll,窗体图像子系统gews.dll和shell程序explore.exe。
