//bootm引导内核过程详解之一-cmd_bootm

//Thomas.Yang 2010.05.25

 

/*do_bootm()是bootm命令真正执行的第一个函数
主要功能 :
1. 复制Image(这里指的是uImage) 头到全局变量header;
2. 检查header的magic number是否正确,检查header和image各自的校验和是否正确;
3. 检查image的体系架构和类型(kernel or MULTI)
4. 将内核zImage搬移到image头中指定的内核加载地址ih_load
5.调用u-boot-1.3.1/lib_arm/armlinux.c中的do_bootm_linux()函数,将传递给内核的参数存放在指定的内存位置,然后执行thekernel(0,...,...)跳转到内核入口点(ih_ep=0x30008000)执行,控制权交给内核,u-boot执行完毕。
