Dear all,
I am working on a project which porting fiasco to a ARM&DSP platform. Now I have questions about the fiasco boot sequence in arm side. First, when doing a workable kernel image, we should use the l4 package *[1]"bootstrap" (l4/pkg/bootstrap)* to encapsulate the needed modules, for example: roottask, sigma0, and the real fiasco kernel(it means the building image in kernel/fiasco/builddir/fiasco.image). And we find the file "l4/pkg/bootstrap/server/src/startup.cc", there are some source code lines like:
#elif defined(ARCH_arm) typedef void (*startup_func)(void); * startup_func f = (startup_func)boot_info.kernel_start;* f(); #else the command line says that "setup the L4 kernel info page before booting the L4 microkernel", but we want to know what is the entry point about *boot_info.kernel_start*in the real fiasco kernel(fiasco.image) source codes?
And we also find that there is also a file named *[2]bootstrap in kernel/fiasco/src/kern/arm/bootstrap.cpp*, this file seems to steup the memory mapping. So we guess the first bootstrap*[1]* is used to arrange the roottask, sigma0, etc... in the memory space, then jump to the second bootstrap*[2]*in fiasco kernel to setup the needed memory mapping, and finally give the control to the real fiasco kernel. We want to confirm the steps, or something is wrong?
And the last question, what is the coding style about *IMPLEMENTATION [arm]: * in kernel/fiasco/src/kern/arm/ directory, is there any effect when compiling them?
Thank you very much!
Best Regards, Qmo
