Cross-Development Environment

Host and Target are different architecture

All the things we need

Provide by vendor

Linux kernel Linux kernel + some patches if needed

Filesystem Busybox Device node Configuration

17

The Bootloader's Job

One main mission: load the operating system(s). Tasks: Initialize the machine properly (the kernel can do part of

this later too). Access the kernel and initrd files in their storage mediu

m (need to support the corresponding filesystem too) Because of the above 2 tasks, bootloaders are often pla

tform specific! Load the kernel and initrd files Execute the kernel file with the right command line

Some Bootloaders

LILO: LInux LOad. Original Linux bootloader. Still in use! http://freshmeat.net/projects/lilo/ Supports: x86

GRUB: GRand Unified Bootloader from GNU. More powerful. http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/ Supports: x86

LinuxBIOS: Linux based BIOS replacement http://www.linuxbios.org/ Supports: x86

20

Some Bootloaders (cont.)

UBoot: Universal Bootloader. The most used on arm. http://uboot.sourceforge.net/ Supports: arm, ppc, mips, x86

RedBoot: eCos based bootloader from RedHat http://sources.redhat.com/redboot/ Supports: x86, arm, ppc, mips, sh, m68k...

GNU Introduction 一九八四年，在美國麻省理工學院任教的理查 · 史托曼 (Richard M. Stallman) 創辦「自由軟體基金會 (Free Software Foundation) 」，並提出 GNU(Gnu is Not Unix) 計畫

提出 GNU 計畫中所發展的一整套自由軟體，內容包括了編譯器、組譯器、文書處理軟體等各式各樣的應用軟體 ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu http://www.gnu.org

23

GCC

Cross Compiler 就是在一個平台上 ( 如 x86) 產生出另外一個平台上 ( 如 arm) 的可執行檔案 ELF (Executable and Linking Format)

如果要在 ARM 上面建立 Linux Kernel 必需使用到 Cross Compiler而一般編譯 Linux Kernel 的一定是 GCC

http://www.kernel.org

24

GCC = GNU Compiler Collection

Features Portable Cross-compiling Support different language

C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran, Java, and Ada Free Software http://gcc.gnu.org

程式編譯器 arm-linux-gcc用來將原始碼編譯成 arm 平台上執行的程式$ arm-linux-gcc hello.c –o hello/usr/local/arm/include/asm,linuxhttp://0rz.net/2508Ahttp://people.debian.org/~debacle/cross.html

System Boot Flow

26

System Storage The storage devices used in embedded systems are often quite diffe

rent from those used in workstations and servers. Embedded systems tend to use solid-state storage devices such as f

lash chips and flash disks.

Kernel Considerations

28

Kernel Configuration

make config 這種模式需要逐行輸入所需要設定的項目，無法往前修改設定，

所以目前很少使用這種方式來設定 Kernel 的項目了； make xconfig

這種模式則是使用 X-Window 為主要環境的設定模式！除非你有 X-Window 在執行，否則沒有辦法使用這種模式；

make menuconfig 這種模式有點像是文字界面的選單模式，較為簡便，而且可以在

純文字界面下面執行編輯動作！是目前最常使用的模式。

29

Kernel Configuration

30

Kernel Compiling

make dep 建立相依的屬性關係！

make clean 將舊的資料去除掉

make bzImage 開始編譯核心！這個核心是經過壓縮的，此外，這個步驟也很長！

make modules 開始編譯模組！這個動作視您剛剛編譯的模組數量！

make modules_install 將 modules 資料安裝在 /lib/modules/`uname -r` 裡面！

make install 安裝 bzImage 建立完成的核心

31

Root Filesystem Content

32

Filesystem

//bin/boot

/grub/dev/etc/home/lib/mnt/proc/sbin/tmp/usr

/src/bin/sbin

/var/log/spool

根目錄一般常用指令Kernel image 的位置

grub 設定硬體裝置系統設定一般使用者的家目錄函式庫儲存裝置系統裝置訊息管理使用指令暫存檔其他軟體放的目錄

原始程式碼一般可執行程式碼管理使用程式碼

系統記錄檔案登入檔以及錯誤訊息檔案郵件檔案

33

Building Root Filesystem

Download the BusyBox source code from http://www.busybox.net/

Building BusyBox make clean make all make install

After make complete, the busybox will be at ./path/to/busybox_src/_install/

Development Tools

45

開發工具 ARM SDT （ ARM Software Development Kit ）是 ARM 公司

為方便使用者在 ARM 晶片上進行應用程式的開發而推出的一整套整合開發工具

目前的最高版本為 SDT2.5.2 從 SDT2.5.1 開始， ARM 公司宣佈推出一套新的整合開發

工具 ARM ADS1.0 ，取代 ARM SDT SDT 與 ADS 保持了良好的相容性

46

開發工具 ARM ADS （ ARM Developer Suite ）是 ARM 公司推出的新

一代 ARM 整合開發工具，用以取代 ARM 公司以前推出的開發工具 ARM SDT 。

目前 ARM ADS 的最新版本為 ADS1.2 。 ARM ADS 是 ARM SDT 的升級版本，對 ARM SDT 的模組進行

了增強，並替換了部分 SDT 的部件， ARM ADS 支援所有的ARM 系列處理器，包括最新的 ARM9E 和 ARM10

除了 Windows 作業系統外，還支援在 Linux 作業系統的執行。
