What is Bootloader • What is boot loader ? • A boot loader is the first program which executes (before the main program i.e. kernel ) whenever a system is initialized • A boot loader is a computer program that loads the main program (i.e. operating system, kernel ) for the board after completion of the self-tests • Why boot loader is needed ? • Gives a development environment • Saves cost of flash writers • Give flexibility to load any operating system
Types of Bootloader • What are different types of boot loaders ? • Boot-ROM ( or Pre-Boot Loader) • Small code which loads First stage boot loader • First Stage Boot Loader • Small Piece of code that initialize the NAND/MMC & DRAM controller. • Second Stage Boot Loader • Primary function of the second-stage boot loader is to Loading the kernel into RAM or jumping directly to the start of the kernel. OS Kernel Pre-Bootloader First-Stage Bootloader Second-Stage Bootloader
U-boot Loading Process Exynos4412 DRAM controller DRAM Cortex-A9 Booting Device (NAND, MMC, SD, USB) eSSD controller Internal ROM 1 iROM code NAND controller 1st BL 2nd BL SD/MMC controller 2 Internal SRAM OS 3 UART/USB
U-boot Loading Process • BL0; iRom code (boot-rom or pre-boot loader) • Simple platform independent code, stored in internal ROM • Initialize basic functions (clock, stack, heap, etc) • Load first stage boot loader (from booting device to internal SRAM) • BL1; first boot loader • Simple platform independent code, stored in external memory(booting device) • Load second boot loader • Initialize NAND/MMC and DRAM controller • BL2; second boot loader • Platform dependent complex code, stored in external memory • Initialize clock, UART • Load OS image from booting device toDRAM • Jump to operating system
U-boot Directory Structure /u-boot /u-boot Machine/arch independent API Example code for standalone applications examples api Architecture specific files Filesystem code (cramfs, ext2, jffs2, etc.) arch fs Board dependent files Header files board include Misc architecture independent functions Files generic to all architectures common lib Code for disk drive partition handling Networking code disk net Documentation Power on self test doc post Commonly used device drivers drivers Real time clock drivers rtc tools Tools to build S-Record or U-boot images
U-boot Code Sequence • Disable all interrupts • Copy any initialized data from ROM to RAM • Zero the uninitialized data area • Allocate space for and initialize the stack • Initialize the processor’s stack pointer • Create and initialize the heap • Execute the initializers for all global data • Enable interrupts • Call main loop

What is Systemd? • Sysvinit • userspacelaunch (PID 1) • Only one process at a time running • Simply starting the system and then going to sleep until the next reboot • Systemd • Default init in Fedora 15 and later Leonard Poettering (2009) • improve the software framework for expressing dependencies • allow more processing to be done concurrently or in parallel during system booting • reduce the computational overhead of the shell.
What is Systemd? • Systemd in Tizen • System and service manager for tizen platform • Ver. 43 (download http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/) • Parallelizes service execution • Socket and D-Bus activation for starting services and daemon • on-demand starting of daemons • Managing the service processes as a group using Linux cgroup • Supporting automount points • Snapshotting and restoring of services • Rethinking PID 1 • http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/systemd.html
Systemd Architecture • systemd Utility • monitoring and controlling systemd itself and its services • systemctl: developers can query or send control commend to the systemd service manager • systemd-journalctl: utility to see log message • systemd Target • Tizen boot-up process is split up in various discrete steps and each step are grouped its unit using 'Target' unit to synchronize point • The boot-up process is highly parallelized in each target so that the order in which specific target units are reached in not deterministic • systemd Daemon • system and service manager for Tizen platform • acts as init system • 'systemd' daemon runs as user session with '--user' option • 'systemd-journald' is a system service that collects and stores log data from the Kernel, from user processes via syslog or STDOUT/STDERR
Systemd Architecture • systemd Core • manages all units such as service, socket, mount and so on, • stores all log data. • controlled by using systemd utility like 'systemctl' • systemd library & Linux Kernel • systemd requires to enable 'cgroup' and 'autofs' option in Kernel configuration • It also depends on dbus and some libraries such as libnotify, libudev
Platform Bootup – sysinit.target • Early boot-up scripts • Most of file system are mounted and systemd related daemons are launched Kernel dev-hugepages.mountsystemd-modules-load.service dev-mqueue.mountsystemd-sysctl.service init-conf.servicesystemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev.service kmod-static-nodes.servicesystemd-tmpfiles-setup.service sys-fs-fuse-connections.mountsystemd-udevd.service sys-kernel-config.mountsystemd-udev-trigger.service sys-kernel-debug.mountsystemd-update-utmp.service systemd-ask-password-console.pathtizen-debug-off.service systemd-journald.servicetizen-debug-on.service systemd-journal-flush.service local-fs.target sysinit.target csa.mount opt-usr.mount opt.mount resize2fs-root.service systemd-remount-fs.service usr-share-locale.mount tmp.mount Smack.mount basic.target Tizen-boot.target Tizen-system.target Tizen-runtime.target socket.target multi-user.target dbus.socket systemd-initctl.socket systemd-journald.socket systemd-shutdownd.socket telnetd.socket udev-control.socket udev-kernel.socket graphical.target swap.target

Platform Bootup • Systemd • Control is moved from initramfs tosystemd of Tizen platform • Run hardware init and fs mount, etc services • Bootup process run several units (.target) • Different targets can be run in parallel • Manylinux distributions adopt systemd as default • Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, Fedora, Arch Linux, openSUSE • Do not use daemon control script (/sbin/init, /etc/init.d/*, /etc/rc*.d) • /usr/lib/systemd • unit files: service, target, socket, device, mount, automount, path, snapshot, swap, timer • systemd utilities: systemctl, notify, analyze, cgis, cgtop, logictl, journalctl, nspawn
Platform Bootup Kernel Systemd sysinit.target entry point basic.target .target vs .service • .target; servicegrouping • .service; process run Tizen-boot.target
Parsing Unit File – Example (1/8) • /usr/lib/systemd/system • cat sysinit.target target to parse
Parsing Unit File – Example (2/8) • Website • http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ • systemd download • http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/ manpage
Parsing Unit File – Example (3/8) Can search all functions, units, configurations of systemd enter target index
Parsing Unit File – Example (4/8) target unit file
Parsing Unit File – Example (5/8) Description on unit file options
Parsing Unit File – Example (8/8) • User-aware unit name= “System Initialization” • If emergency is running, wait • Run with local-fs.target, swap.target, • Delayed until local-fs.target, swap.target, emergency.service, and emergency.target are started up. • User can control service start and stop
Different Sessions • [Unit], [Service], [Install], [Socket], [Swap], [Mount], … • example; telephony.service • [Unit]; general options • unit name = Telephony daemon • Run after modem.service • [Service]; processoptions • Run telephony-daemon as main process • [Install]; carries installation information for the unit • systemctl enable will create a symlink of multi-user.target.wants
