Xv6 编译启动

Xv6 entry -- entry.S

为了接下来的内核C函数可以执行,要为每个CPU设置函数执行的内核> 栈,每个核心的内核栈大小为4096bytes (A page in xv6)

Xv6 start()

每个CPU都要设置一下,使每个CPU都能接收到Trap并在Supervisor Mode能陷入

Trap:

  1. 中断 来自中断控制器的External Interrupt 来自软件发出的Software Interrupt
  2. Exception 除零操作、Page Fault、Syscall etc.

接着每个CPU进入main.c:main

Xv6 main()

仅有hart id为0的CPU核心会进入第一个用户进程user/init.c (userinit的行为是exec(user/_init)) 所有的核心都会完成许多内核模块的初始化任务(见代码注释)

最终,除了第一个运行init进程的CPU,剩下CPU被调度器分配调度任务

Xv6 init.c -- main()

父进程通过fork子进程保证有shell可以执行,其在一个infinity loop中等待子进程shell退出 一旦退出重新建立一个shell进程,这样我们就可以通过子进程进入到了shell,用其执行其他程序了


xv6 is a re-implementation of Dennis Ritchie's and Ken Thompson's Unix Version 6 (v6). xv6 loosely follows the structure and style of v6, but is implemented for a modern RISC-V multiprocessor using ANSI C.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

xv6 is inspired by John Lions's Commentary on UNIX 6th Edition (Peer to Peer Communications; ISBN: 1-57398-013-7; 1st edition (June 14, 2000)). See also https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/6.828/, which provides pointers to on-line resources for v6.

ERROR REPORTS

Please send errors and suggestions to Frans Kaashoek and Robert Morris (kaashoek,[email protected]). The main purpose of xv6 is as a teaching operating system for MIT's 6.S081, so we are more interested in simplifications and clarifications than new features.

BUILDING AND RUNNING XV6

You will need a RISC-V "newlib" tool chain from https://github.com/riscv/riscv-gnu-toolchain, and qemu compiled for riscv64-softmmu. Once they are installed, and in your shell search path, you can run "make qemu".
