启动汇编部分代码是xen 的引导启动程序,位于./xen/arch/x86/boot目录下。代码描述了从xen加载到调用第一个C函数“__start_xen”之间的初始化系统环境过程。主要涉及的文件流程为head.S->trampoline.S->x86_32.s,其中head.s为冲GRUB进入XEN的入口文件,首先看看head.s部分都做了什么(只看32位体系)。
/* 只能由 grub 来引导,head.S 是从GRUB进入XEN 的入口文件;
开始执行的第一个汇编文件,包括初始化页表,解析早期命令行参数等工作

cpuid_ext_features在xen\arch\x86\boot\trampoline.S中定义。boot_cpu_data在\xen\include\asm-x86 \ processor.h中定义,是cpuinfo_x86的实例。
CPUINFO86_ext_features 在xen\arch\x86\x86_32 \ asm-offsets.c中定义:OFFSET(CPUINFO86_ext_features, struct cpuinfo_x86, x86_capability[1]);
OFFSET解释如下:
#define offsetof (s, m) (size_t)&(((s*)0)->m)
m为结构体s中的一项,返回m距结构体起始地址的偏移量。ANSI C中常数0允许转换成任何类型的指针,但转换后指针为NULL。例中&(((s*)0)->m)这一步,并不访问m元素,只是获取m的地址,编译时不生成访问m的代码。
#define DEFINE(_sym,_val) __asm__ __volatile__ (“\n->” #_sym “%0” #_val:: “i”(_val))
#是注释符号;%0是占位符,这里指代“i”(_val)。
#define OFFSET(_sym, _str, _mem) DEFINE(_sym, offsetof(_str, _mem))
这条宏是将_str结构体的_mem项的偏移量赋值给_sym。
