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/global_data.h和./include/asm/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。需要用到时用宏定义: 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
