Hi ALL:
As we know, the function init( ) in main.c is
static int init(void * unused)
{
lock_kernel();
do_basic_setup();
free_initmem();
unlock_kernel();
if (open("/dev/console", O_RDWR, 0) < 0)
printk("Warning: unable to open an initial console.\n");
(void) dup(0);
(void) dup(0);
if (execute_command)
execve(execute_command,argv_init,envp_init);
execve("/sbin/init",argv_init,envp_init); //<--- problem
execve("/etc/init",argv_init,envp_init);
execve("/bin/init",argv_init,envp_init);
execve("/bin/sh",argv_init,envp_init);
panic("No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.");
}
The system call execve("/sbin/init",argv_init,envp_init) will start a
background process.
In my case, it could not start the process, that is, system hangs there
and
execve("/etc/init",argv_init,envp_init) could not be executed.
Could you tell me where could I find the source code for the executable
/sbin/init?
Thank you very much for your help.

Steven Liu

/sbin/init is part of the SysVInit package.
Your problem is most likely NOT with /sbin/init itself. I would start by loading
sash first; if that works, try a static bash; if that works, try a dynamically
linked bash.

Hi, Pete:
Thank you very much for your help.
After several tries, I realized that you are right. My MMU may have
problem.
Because my mips CPU is not the standard one and I do not have a R3000
application
program such as "date", "arch", or "init", I built an application as
following.
liu.c is:
void main(void)
{
}
Makefile is:
ARCH = mips
.EXPORT_ALL_VARIABLES:
CROSS_COMPILE =mips-linux-
AS =$(CROSS_COMPILE)as
LD =$(CROSS_COMPILE)ld
CC =$(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc -D__mips__
CPP =$(CC) -E
AR =$(CROSS_COMPILE)ar
NM =$(CROSS_COMPILE)nm
STRIP =$(CROSS_COMPILE)strip
OBJCOPY =$(CROSS_COMPILE)objcopy
OBJDUMP =$(CROSS_COMPILE)objdump
MAKE =make
GENKSYMS=/sbin/genksyms
CFLAGS = -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -mips1
-mcpu=r3000 -mmemcpy
CFLAGS += $(shell if $(CC) -fno-strict-aliasing -S -o /dev/null -xc
/dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1; then echo "-fno-strict-aliasing"; fi)
# egcs-1.0.2 compiler for MIPS has a problem for which this is a
work-around
CFLAGS += $(shell if $(CC) -mno-split-addresses -S -o /dev/null -xc
/dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1; then echo "-mno-split-addresses"; fi)
.S.s:
$(CC) -D__ASSEMBLY__ -traditional -E -o $*.s $<
.S.o:
$(CC) -D__ASSEMBLY__ -traditional -c -o $*.o $<
liu: $(CONFIGURATION) liu.o
$(LD) $(LINKFLAGS) $(HEAD) liu.o \
-o liu
$(NM) liu | grep -v '\(compiled\)\|\(\.o$$\)\|\( [aU]
\)\|\(\.\.ng$$\)\|\(LASH[RL]DI\)' | sort > System.map
liu.o: liu.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(PROFILING) -c -o $*.o $<
When I ran the program, it crushed.
Could you build this application and run it on your R3000 system? If it
works, send me your executable so that I can test my system.

Steven Liu

sash is a "stand alone shell". It's very small and is completely
statically
linked. The commands are bit different -- for example, "ls" is "-ls" --
ie, the
commands start with a "-". If you can load sash instead of /sbin/init,
it gives
you some confidence that your kernel is actually able to switch to
userland.
Static and dynamic bash refers to how the libraries that bash is using a
linked.
With a statically linked bash, all of the libraries are linked as part
of the
bash binary. That way there is no dynamic library loading when you start
bash.
Dynamically linked bash means that when you start bash, different
libraries that
bash is using will be loaded dynamically.

How do you run the program? Do you use it instead of /sbin/init? If so, what
should happen is that the program should "run" and then just return. If you put
printks before and after your program is run, you should see the program being
executed and then returning. If it's crashing, it sounds like your kernel can't
run *any* userland app, probably because the mmu is not setup correctly.
Unfortunately I don't have any R3000 based boards so I can't test anything.
