Bitmap Analysis in Startup Process of Linux 2.6 Based on Symmetric Multi-Processor Architecture
Bin Yang · Journal of Chengdu University of Information Technology · 2010
Under the Symmetric Multi-Processor(SMP) Architecture,embedded platform based on Linux has been widely used increasingly.Based on the detailed analysis of Linux system startup process under SMP,the processing mechanisms and functions of related bitmaps used in startup process are deeply illustrated from both the system usage and programmer's aspects in this article,which provides a general idea for Linux transplantation in Multe-Processor and Multi-core platform.
