4、s Fast Boot?,Fast boot refers to minimizing the boot time of a system. The boot time of the system is the time it takes from the application of power to the system becoming “available”“Available” has a lot of different meanings depending on the user expectations.Appearance of the home screen for dev。

5、ices like cell phonesAn audible tone or LED indicatorA Linux promptBecoming discoverable on the networkHaving a key peripheral become availableThe above variances show why the Sitara Linux SDK is generally not fully optimized for boot time. Each user can have a different target and a generic SDK can。

6、not satisfy all user targetsThere are also many features that make for a good development environment, but which do not make for a fast booting environment,Boot Process Overview,Measuring Boot Time,There are a couple of different options for measuring boot time. You can use a C program that time sta。

If you do not need SSH you can save 1.194 seconds by disabling DropbearDisabling Dropbear is as simple as removing the S10dropbear init script from the /etc/rc5.d directory,Identifying the Boot Steps,One of the first things to help in optimizing boot time is to be a。

14、s, but the serial print times can still be very usefulFor example, when booting the kernel image you will see output like:5.335 0.010: # Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 80007fc0 .5.339 0.004: Image Name: Arago/3.2.0-psp04.06.00.08.sdk/a5.344 0.005: Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompresse。

OK6.310 0.034: OKNotice that almost a second is spent verifying the kernel image checksum.If your system doesnt do a。

16、nything about a bad image, why spend time verifying it?This verification can be disabled by setting the “verify” u-boot parameter to n at the u-boot command promptu-boot# setenv verify n,Profiling the Linux Kernel,One of the simplest ways to profile the Linux kernel is to configure “CONFIG_PRINTK_TI。

17、ME” for the Linux kernel. On most recent kernels this is enabled by default.This adds the time since the kernel was booted in s before each line 2.029785 mmc1: card claims to support voltages below the defined range. T. 2.048583 mmc1: queuing unknown CIS tuple 0x91 (3 bytes) 2.055053 mmc1: new SDIO 。

18、card at address 0001 3.986724 PHY: 0:00 - Link is Up - 100/Full 4.015808 Sending DHCP requests ., OK 4.036254 IP-Config: Got DHCP answer from 0.0.0.0, my address is 128.247.10 4.044586 IP-Config: Complete: 4.047973 device=eth0, addr=128.247.105.20, mask=255.255.254.0, gw=12, 4.056182 host=128.247.10。

19、5.20, domain=am.dhcp.ti.com, nis-domain=(non, 4.063781 bootserver=0.0.0.0, rootserver=0.0.0.0, rootpath=In The above output we can see that it takes almost 2 seconds to get the network Phy Link up and obtain a DHCP IP address.Depending on network speed this could be longer. In the case where there i。

20、s no DHCP server this can take minutes to timeout.Setting “ip=off” in the bootargs will bypass kernel network configuration while still allowing you to configure the network in user space.setenv ip_method off,Profiling the Linux Kernel - Cont,Instrument kernel initialization. This will help you find。

21、 which static drivers in the kernel are taking the most time to initializeAdd “initcall_debug” to the bootargs in u-boot. With recent u-boots this can usually be done using:setenv optargs initcall_debugsaveenvWhen the Linux system is booted you can view these initcall lines using “dmesg | grep initc。

22、all” xxxxx initcall returned 0 after usecsThese lines can be sorted using the commands below to help find the modules with the largest init timesIf CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME is enableddmesg | grep initcall | sort -k8 -nIf CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME is not enableddmesg | grep initcall | sort -k6 -nIt is possible to。

23、 graphically view these initcall times using the bootgraph script in the Linux kernel sources. This requires CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME to be enabledcat | perl /scripts/bootgraph.pl boot.svgAdditionaly you can use other tools to help you analyze the Linux kernel such as:Linux Trace Toolkit (LTTng)Timing for。

These take time to initialize.These can be removed in the /etc/inittab file on the target file systemIt is possible to comple。

31、tely disable printk but this will eliminate a lot of debug information,Linux Optimization Techniques - Cont,Defer module init callsIt is possibly to defer module init calls without having to build the modules dynamically. This requires modifying the kernelFor modules that are not needed at boot repl。

32、ace the “module_init()” function calls to “deferred_module_init()”Once the system booted the deferred calls can be executed by doing:echo 1 /proc/deferred_initcallsAdditional details at http:/elinux.org/Deferred_InitcallsRemove the -g option from the compileDisable kernel debugging featuresKernel de。

34、 718.02 BogoMIPS (lpj=3590144)Add the “lpj=3590144” to the bootargsUse Static IP addressing where possibleIf you dont need networking then disable it altogetherIf you want networking capability but not NFS then be sure to set “ip=off” on the kernel command line.Set memory limit with “mem=“ optionUse。

36、size to increase dramatically.Avoid using ramdisk or initramfsMust load entire ramdisk from flash into DDRMay only need a small part at boot timei.e. may not need all of glibc but entire library will be loaded into DDR using ramdisk or initramfsBuffer cache can keep frequently used files in memory,F。
