Arm結構下 kernel是如何編譯出zImage的。

先是將vmlinux的某些段去掉了，生成了Image，比如.comment。

arm-linux-objcopy -O binary -R .note -R .note.gnu.build-id -R .comment -S vmlinux arch/arm/boot/Image
Kernel: arch/arm/boot/Image is ready

然后用gzip壓縮Image，成為piggy.gz。

gzip -f -9 < arch/arm/boot/compressed/../Image > arch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.gz
GZIP arch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.gz

這個(gè)生成piggy.o這么長(cháng)？先是從piggy.S編譯出來(lái)一個(gè)piggy.o。

arm-linux-gcc -Wp,-MD,arch/arm/boot/compressed/.piggy.o.d -nostdinc -isystem

/home/wyang2/test/usr/local/arm/4.4.1/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.4.1/include -D__KERNEL__-Iinclude-I/home/wyang2/test/linux-2.6.28.6/arch/arm/include -include include/linux/autoconf.h -mlittle-endian

-Iarch/arm/mach-s3c6400/include-Iarch/arm/mach-s3c6410/include-Iarch/arm/plat-s3c64xx/include

AS arch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.o

話(huà)說(shuō)我一直沒(méi)找到piggy.o和piggy.gz的關(guān)系，原來(lái)在piggy.S文件里面。它把整個(gè)piggy.gz包含進(jìn)去了，囂張啊。

.section .piggydata,#alloc

.globl input_data

input_data:

.incbin "arch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.gz"

.globl input_data_end

input_data_end:
下面是編譯head.o， 沒(méi)有看出有什么特別的地方
arm-linux-gcc -Wp,-MD,arch/arm/boot/compressed/.head.o.d -nostdinc -isystem

下面是編譯misc.o這個(gè)老長(cháng)了
arm-linux-gcc -Wp,-MD,arch/arm/boot/compressed/.misc.o.d -nostdinc -isystem

;

CC arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o

根據head.o piggy.o misc.o 編譯成compressed/vmlinux

arm-linux-ld -EL --defsym zreladdr=0x50008000 --defsym params_phys=0x50000100 -p --no-undefined -X /usr/local/arm/4.4.1/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.4.1/libgcc.a -T arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux.ldsarch/arm/boot/compressed/head.oarch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.oarch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o-o arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux
LD arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux

#@make -f scripts/Makefile.build obj=arch/arm/boot/compressed arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux

用vmlinux去掉一些符號，生成了zImage。

arm-linux-objcopy -O binary -R .note -R .note.gnu.build-id -R .comment -S arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux arch/arm/boot/zImage
