printk实现分析（源码）
不 过内核用的打印函数printk完全是和stdin或stdout无关的，因为一开始到start_kernel函数刚开始进入内核就可以用printk 函数了，而建立stdin和stdout是在init函数中实现的。有个问题，在我这里的代码中，建立stdin和stdout如下
if (open("/dev/null", O_RDWR, 0) < 0)
printk("Warning: unable to open an initial console./n");
(void) dup(0);
(void) dup(0);
问 题在于它打开的是/dev/null，而一般pc机上的linux打开的都是/dev/console，而且我把这几行代码删除也没有问题，所以我猜想这 里建立stdin和stdout并没什么用，肯定在shell中建立了定位到串口的stdin和stdout。所以接下来还需要看看busybox的代码 吧。
在这里还是主要分析一下printk实现的原理。

接下来理解一下console_drivers这个结构体指针
struct console
{
char name[8];
void (*write)(struct console *, const char *, unsigned);
int (*read)(struct console *, const char *, unsigned);
kdev_t (*device)(struct console *);
int (*wait_key)(struct console *);
void (*unblank)(void);
int (*setup)(struct console *, char *);
short flags;
short index;
int cflag;
struct console *next;
};
而开始console_drivers这个指针是NULL的,在什么时候被赋值的呢,原本以为应该在用printk以前就被初始化了,其实不然,它是在start_kernel函数中调用的console_init()函数中被初始化的.最好的办法还是看看代码.
