Booting Linux/LoongArch
=======================

:Author: Yanteng Si <siyanteng@loongson.cn>
:Date:   18 Nov 2022

Information passed from BootLoader to kernel
============================================

LoongArch supports ACPI and FDT. The information that needs to be passed
to the kernel includes the memmap, the initrd, the command line, optionally
the ACPI/FDT tables, and so on.

The kernel is passed the following arguments on `kernel_entry` :

      - a0 = efi_boot: `efi_boot` is a flag indicating whether
        this boot environment is fully UEFI-compliant.

      - a1 = cmdline: `cmdline` is a pointer to the kernel command line.

      - a2 = systemtable: `systemtable` points to the EFI system table.
        All pointers involved at this stage are in physical addresses.

Header of Linux/LoongArch kernel images
=======================================

Linux/LoongArch kernel images are EFI images. Being PE files, they have
a 64-byte header structured like::

	u32	MZ_MAGIC                /* "MZ", MS-DOS header */
	u32	res0 = 0                /* Reserved */
	u64	kernel_entry            /* Kernel entry point */
	u64	_end - _text            /* Kernel image effective size */
	u64	load_offset             /* Kernel image load offset from start of RAM */
	u64	res1 = 0                /* Reserved */
	u64	res2 = 0                /* Reserved */
	u64	res3 = 0                /* Reserved */
	u32	LINUX_PE_MAGIC          /* Magic number */
	u32	pe_header - _head       /* Offset to the PE header */

BootLoader传递给内核的信息
==========================

LoongArch支持ACPI和FDT启动,需要传递给内核的信息包括memmap、initrd、cmdline、可
选的ACPI/FDT表等。

内核在 `kernel_entry` 入口处被传递以下参数:

      - a0 = efi_boot: `efi_boot` 是一个标志,表示这个启动环境是否完全符合UEFI
        的要求。

      - a1 = cmdline: `cmdline` 是一个指向内核命令行的指针。

      - a2 = systemtable: `systemtable` 指向EFI的系统表,在这个阶段涉及的所有
        指针都是物理地址。

Linux/LoongArch内核镜像文件头
=============================

内核镜像是EFI镜像。作为PE文件,它们有一个64字节的头部结构体,如下所示::

	u32	MZ_MAGIC                /* "MZ", MS-DOS 头 */
	u32	res0 = 0                /* 保留 */
	u64	kernel_entry            /* 内核入口点 */
	u64	_end - _text            /* 内核镜像有效大小 */
	u64	load_offset             /* 加载内核镜像相对内存起始地址的偏移量 */
	u64	res1 = 0                /* 保留 */
	u64	res2 = 0                /* 保留 */
	u64	res3 = 0                /* 保留 */
	u32	LINUX_PE_MAGIC          /* 魔术数 */
	u32	pe_header - _head       /* 到PE头的偏移量 */
