- 一、devtmpfs概述
-
1.devtmpfs 的功用是在 Linux 核心 启动早期建立一个初步的 /dev,令一般启动程序不用等待 udev,缩短 GNU/Linux 的开机时间。
-
-
2.重要解释
-
Devtmpfs lets the kernel create a tmpfs very early at kernel initialization, before any driver core device is registered. Every device with a major/minor will have a device node created in this tmpfs instance. After the rootfs is mounted by the kernel, the populated tmpfs is mounted at /dev. In initramfs, it can be moved to the manually mounted root filesystem before /sbin/init is executed.
-
-
3.menuconfig 中加入devtmpfs支持
-
make menuconfig-->Device Drivers-->Generic Driver Options
-
Maintain a devtmpfs filesystem to mount at /dev
-
Automount devtmpfs at /dev, after the kernel mounted the rootfs
-
-
4.df -T显示devtmpfs

return error;
-

//调用具体文件系统的mknod()函数
-
//mount时调用shmem_fill_super()-->shmem_get_inode()分配inode节点时做出的初始化

/*那么在shmem_get_inode中

由于mountpoint是dev这个目录,所以dev对应的inode的i_op就是shmem_dir_inode_operations。

-
dget(dentry); //递减dentry的计数
-
}
-
return error;
-
}
-
-
三、文件系统的mount
-
内核主要是通过kernel_init调用prepare_namespace()函数执行安装实际根文件系统的操作:
-
void __init prepare_namespace(void)
-
{
-
int is_floppy;
-
-
if (root_delay) {
-
printk(KERN_INFO "Waiting %dsec before mounting root device...
",
-
root_delay);
-
ssleep(root_delay);
-
}
-
wait_for_device_probe();
-
-
md_run_setup();
-
/* 把root_device_name变量置为从启动参数“root”中获取的设备文件名。
-
* 同样,把ROOT_DEV变量置为同一设备文件的主设备号和次设备号。*/
-
if (saved_root_name[0]) {
-
root_device_name = saved_root_name;
-
if (!strncmp(root_device_name, "mtd", 3) ||
-
!strncmp(root_device_name, "ubi", 3)) {
-
mount_block_root(root_device_name, root_mountflags);
-
goto out;
-
}
-
ROOT_DEV = name_to_dev_t(root_device_name);//转换为设备号/dev/mtdblock2.
-
if (strncmp(root_device_name, "/dev/", 5) == 0)
-
root_device_name += 5;
-
}
-
-
if (initrd_load())
-
goto out;
-
-
/* wait for any asynchronous scanning to complete */
-
if ((ROOT_DEV == 0) && root_wait) {
-
printk(KERN_INFO "Waiting for root device %s...
",
-
saved_root_name);
-
while (driver_probe_done() != 0 ||
-
(ROOT_DEV = name_to_dev_t(saved_root_name)) == 0)
-
msleep(100);
-
async_synchronize_full();
-
}
-
-
is_floppy = MAJOR(ROOT_DEV) == FLOPPY_MAJOR;
-
-
if (is_floppy && rd_doload && rd_load_disk(0))
-
ROOT_DEV = Root_RAM0;
-
-
mount_root();
-
out:
-
devtmpfs_mount("dev");//挂载devtmpfs文件系统
-
sys_mount(".", "/", NULL, MS_MOVE, NULL); /* 移动rootfs文件系统根目录上的已安装文件系统的安装点。 */
-
sys_chroot(".");
-
}
-
-
int devtmpfs_mount(const char *mntdir)
-
{
-
int err;
-
-
if (!mount_dev)
-
return 0;
-
-
if (!thread)
-
return 0;
-
//将devtmpfs文件系统挂载到/dev目录下
-
err = sys_mount("devtmpfs", (char *)mntdir, "devtmpfs", MS_SILENT, NULL);
-
if (err)
-
printk(KERN_INFO "devtmpfs: error mounting %i
", err);
-
else
-
printk(KERN_INFO "devtmpfs: mounted
");
-
return err;
-
}
-
-
-
四、devtmpfs创建节点
-
系统在启动过程中,扫描到的设备会通过devtmpfs_create_node()函数来添加设备节点。
-
int devtmpfs_create_node(struct device *dev)
-
{
-
const char *tmp = NULL;
-
struct req req;
-
-
if (!thread)
-
return 0;
-
-
req.mode = 0;
-
req.name = device_get_devnode(dev, &req.mode, &tmp);//获得设备名
-
if (!req.name)
-
return -ENOMEM;
-
-
if (req.mode == 0)
-
req.mode = 0600;
-
if (is_blockdev(dev))
-
req.mode |= S_IFBLK;//块设备
-
else
-
req.mode |= S_IFCHR;//字符设备
-
-
req.dev = dev;
-
-
init_completion(&req.done);
-
-
spin_lock(&req_lock);
-
req.next = requests;//请求添加到requests链表
-
requests = &req;
-
spin_unlock(&req_lock);
-
-
wake_up_process(thread);//唤醒内核线程devtmpfsd添加设备节点
-
wait_for_completion(&req.done);
-
-
kfree(tmp);
-
-
return req.err;
-
}
-
-
const char *device_get_devnode(struct device *dev,umode_t *mode, const char **tmp)
-
{
-
char *s;
-
-
*tmp = NULL;
-
-
/* the device type may provide a specific name */
-
if (dev->type && dev->type->devnode)
-
*tmp = dev->type->devnode(dev, mode);
-
if (*tmp)
-
return *tmp;
-
-
/* the class may provide a specific name */
-
if (dev->class && dev->class->devnode)
-
*tmp = dev->class->devnode(dev, mode);
-
if (*tmp)
-
return *tmp;
-
-
/* return name without allocation, tmp == NULL */
-
if (strchr(dev_name(dev), '!') == NULL)
-
return dev_name(dev);
-
-
/* replace '!' in the name with '/' */
-
*tmp = kstrdup(dev_name(dev), GFP_KERNEL);
-
if (!*tmp)
-
return NULL;
-
while ((s = strchr(*tmp, '!')))
-
s[0] = '/';
-
return *tmp;
- }
