Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH v3] qemu-x86: Use config_distro_bootcmd
Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2019 12:45:32 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190703174556.11169-1-JPEWhacker@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190702132542.30273-1-JPEWhacker@gmail.com>
Converts qemu x86 machines to boot using distro_config. The intent is to
allow u-boot in qemu to be maximally compatible with many boot methods
without having to change the config. Previously, u-boot would only boot
in a very limited set of circumstances where there was a /boot/vmlinuz
on scsi 0:3 with no ramdisk.

Multicore is also supported by QEMU via '-smp n' where n is the number of cores
to instantiate. Note, the maximum supported CPU number in QEMU is 255.
+U-Boot uses 'distro_bootcmd' by default when booting on x86 QEMU. This tries to
+load a boot script, kernel, and ramdisk from several different interfaces. For
+the default boot order, see 'qemu-x86.h'. For more information, see
+'README.distro'. Most Linux distros can be booted by writing a uboot script.
+For example, Debian (stretch) can be booted by creating a script file named
+'boot.txt' with the contents:
+
+ setenv bootargs root=/dev/sda1 ro
+ load ${devtype} ${devnum}:${distro_bootpart} ${kernel_addr_r} /vmlinuz
+ load ${devtype} ${devnum}:${distro_bootpart} ${ramdisk_addr_r} /initrd.img
+ zboot ${kernel_addr_r} - ${ramdisk_addr_r} ${filesize}
+
+Then compile and install it with:
+
+ $ apt install u-boot-tools && \
+ mkimage -T script -C none -n "Boot script" -d boot.txt /boot/boot.scr
+
The fw_cfg interface in QEMU also provides information about kernel data,
initrd, command-line arguments and more. U-Boot supports directly accessing
these informtion from fw_cfg interface, which saves the time of loading them
