update: 2008-10-15
NOTE: you can download the whole dev environment from http://mirror.lzu.edu.cn/software/linux-0.11/linux-0.11-for-gcc4.3.2.tar.gz Here is just the source code of linux-0.11 for gcc 4.3.2.
- preparation
- a linux distribution: debian and ubuntu are recommended
- a virtual machine: qemu(recommend) or bochs
- some tools: cscope, ctags, gcc-4.3(or 4.1,4.2,3.4), vim, bash, gdb, dd, qemu, xorg-dev, xserver-xorg-dev... $ apt-get install qemu cscope exuberant-ctags gcc-4.3 vim-full bash gdb build-essential hex graphviz xorg-dev xserver-xorg-dev vgabios libxpm-dev bochs bochs-x bochsbios bximage
- a linux-0.11 hardware image file: hdc-0.11-new.img, please download it from http://www.oldlinux.org, or http://mirror.lzu.edu.cn/os/oldlinux.org/, after downloading it, you'd put it in linux-0.11/fs/ directory.
and you'd better install tools/calltree, tools/tree2dotx yourself: just copy them to /usr/bin, of course, you'd compile calltree at first.
- hack linux-0.11
get help from the main Makefile of linux-0.11 and star to hack it.
$ cd linux-0.11 $ make help // get help $ make // compile $ make start // boot it on qemu $ make debug // debug it via qemu & gdb, you'd start gdb to connect it. $ make tags // create the tag file from the source code $ make cscope // create the cscope index database from the source code
NOTE!
there is a calltree in tools/, which can help you to analyze the source code via printing the calling tree of some indicated functions.
compile $ cd tools/calltree-2.3 install $ sudo cp ./calltree/OBJ/i686-linux-cc/calltree /usr/bin use $ calltree // just type calltree and get the help
- debug
start the kernel with qemu, which will listening on port 1234
$ cd linux-0.11 $ make debug
open a new terminal, start gdb and connect the gdbstub in qemu
$ gdb linux-0.11/tools/system (gdb) break main (gdb) target remote localhost:1234 (gdb) s // si:assembly instruction, s|n: c statement(s will enter into subfunc) (gdb) ...
