U-boot的gd_t和bd_t数据结构简介

gd_t和bd_t数据结构简介

gd_t和bd_t是u-boot中两个重要的数据结构，在初始化操作很多都要靠这两个数据结构来保存或传递。分别定义在./include/asm-arm/global_data.h和
./include/asm-arm/u-boot.h

1、gd_t : global data数据结构定义，位于文件 include/asm-arm/global_data.h。其成员主要是一些全局的系统初始化参数。当使用gd_t时需用宏定义进行声明：DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR，指定占用寄存器R8。

/*

* The following data structure is placed in some memory wich is

* available very early after boot (like DPRAM on MPC8xx/MPC82xx, or

* some locked parts of the data cache) to allow for a minimum set of

* global variables during system initialization (until we have set

* up the memory controller so that we can use RAM).

*

* Keep it *SMALL* and remember to set CFG_GBL_DATA_SIZE > sizeof(gd_t)

* CFG_GBL_DATA_SIZE在config文件中定义，start.S中会根据这个值分配栈空间给global_data

*/

typedef
struct global_data {

bd_t *bd; // struct board_info指针，保存板子信息

unsigned long flags;
//
指示标志，如设备已经初始化标志等

unsigned long baudrate;
//
串口波特率

unsigned long have_console;
//
串口初始化标志

unsigned long env_addr; // Address of Environment struct
，环境参数地址

unsigned long env_valid; //
环境参数CRC检验有效标志

unsigned long fb_base; // frame buffer的基址

#ifdef CONFIG_VFD

unsigned char vfd_type;
/* display type */

#endif

#if 0

unsigned long cpu_clk;
/* CPU clock in Hz! */

unsigned long bus_clk;

unsigned long ram_size; /* RAM size */

unsigned long reset_status;
/* reset status register at boot */

#endif

void **jt;
/* jump table */

} gd_t;

/*

* Global Data Flags

#define
GD_FLG_RELOC 0x00001
/* Code was relocated to RAM */

#define GD_FLG_DEVINIT 0x00002

#define GD_FLG_SILENT 0x00004

#define GD_FLG_POSTFAIL 0x00008

/* Disable console (in & out) */

#define DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR register volatile gd_t *gd asm ("r8")

2.、bd_t :board info数据结构定义，位于文件 include/asm-arm/u-boot.h。保存板子参数。

typedef struct bd_info {

int bi_baudrate; //
串口波特率

unsigned long bi_ip_addr;
// IP地址

struct environment_s *bi_env;

ulong bi_arch_number;
// 板子ID号

ulong bi_boot_params;
//
启动参数

struct
// DRAM BANKS配置，起始地址与长度

{

ulong start;

ulong size;

}bi_dram[CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS];

} bd_t;
