Qemu模拟arm64启动Uboot + Linux

news 2026/6/18 17:07:20

目的：

由 U-Boot 引导 Linux 是一套非常经典的“全栈”仿真玩法，虽然Qemu可以跳过U-Boot直接启动Linux，但是要还原真实硬件的启动流程，U-Boot是绕不开要调试和学习的，以此简单记录下。使用Qemu可以用于早期的方案验证，提前排除风险。无实物，纯模拟，不用担心硬件bug，省去了很多调试力气。

一、uboot

1.1 安装依赖库

编译uboot时，需要编译主机工具，而编译工具，又依赖于一些常用的开发库。

sudo apt install -y uuid-dev libssl-dev libgnutls28-dev libncurses-dev swig python3-dev u-boot-tools mtd-utils pkg-config cpio

1.2 编译uboot

下载，编译，启动，不再赘述。ubifs依赖于ubi，ubi依赖于mtd，mtd可以是nor，spi，nand。

#下载 wget https://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/u-boot-2026.01.tar.bz2 tar -jxvf u-boot-2026.01.tar.bz2 cd u-boot-2026.01 #配置，已开启ubi配置 make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- qemu_arm64_defconfig make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- menuconfig （或以下方法） cat << EOF >> .config CONFIG_CMD_MTD=y CONFIG_MTD=y CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER=y CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI=y CONFIG_MTD_NOR_FLASH=y CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE=y CONFIG_CMD_UBI=y CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS=y EOF make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- olddefconfig #编译 make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- -j4 cp u-boot.bin ../ 启动 qemu-system-aarch64 -machine virt -cpu cortex-a53 -smp 2 -m 512 -kernel u-boot -nographic

1.3 启动uboot

启动uboot，可以识别两个mtd设备，以及操作ubi卷。镜像文件可以裸放到支持norflash上，ubi卷上，或者ubifs文件系统中。需要uboot支持读接口获取镜像文件并启动，因为重心不在此，就不继续考究了。

1.4 初探UBI

擦除nor，attach mtd设备，创建ubi卷。uboot下似乎只支持读，没有支持ubifs格式化、写入的操作，因此无法挂载ubifs文件系统。我想这是安全的行为，如果在uboot下创建文件系统，要做好和kernel的版本同步。这个很麻烦，也很容易把不一致性传递给kernel，导致长期使用后ubifs的累加错误。

二、kernel

2.1 编译kernel

编译，启动，不再赘述。

#配置，去掉nor，后续模拟nand make ARCH=arm64 defconfig ./scripts/config --enable DEBUG_INFO \ --enable DEBUG_KERNEL \ --enable GDB_SCRIPTS \ --enable KALLSYMS_ALL \ --enable FRAME_POINTER ./scripts/config --disable MTD_CFI \ --disable MTD_GENPROBE \ --disable MTD_CFI_AMDSTD \ --disable MTD_CFI_UTIL \ --disable MTD_PHYSMAP \ --disable MTD_PHYSMAP_OF cat << EOF >> .config # MTD 核心与分区支持 CONFIG_MTD=y CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS=y CONFIG_MTD_CMDLINE_PARTS=y CONFIG_MTD_CHAR=y # 核心 1：启用 block2mtd 驱动 CONFIG_MTD_BLOCK=y CONFIG_MTD_BLOCK2MTD=y # 核心 2：启用 nandsim 驱动及其依赖的 NAND 框架 CONFIG_MTD_RAW_NAND=y CONFIG_MTD_NAND_NANDSIM=m # UBI 与 UBIFS 配置 CONFIG_MTD_UBI=y CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD=4096 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT=20 CONFIG_UBIFS_FS=y CONFIG_UBIFS_FS_ADVANCED_COMPR=y CONFIG_UBIFS_FS_LZO=y CONFIG_UBIFS_FS_ZLIB=y EOF make ARCH=arm64 olddefconfig #编译 make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- -j8 cp arch/arm64/boot/Image ../ #启动 qemu-system-aarch64 \ -machine virt,virtualization=on \ -cpu cortex-a53 \ -kernel arch/arm64/boot/Image \ -append "console=ttyAMA0 nokaslr" \ -nographic

2.2 制作rootfs

解决Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)问题，需要busybox做个rootfs。

#下载 wget https://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.36.1.tar.bz2 tar -jxvf busybox-1.36.1.tar.bz2 cd busybox-1.36.1/ #配置，启用静态链接 ,配置为静态编译。简单，无需拷贝动态链接库 make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- defconfig sed -i 's/^# CONFIG_STATIC.*/CONFIG_STATIC=y/' .config #关闭tc，解决编译问题 sed -i 's/CONFIG_TC=y/CONFIG_TC=n/' .config #编译 make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- -j4 make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- install #打包rootfs mkdir -p rootfs cp -av busybox-1.36.1/_install/* rootfs/ cd rootfs mkdir -p {dev,etc,lib,proc,sys,mnt,root,etc/init.d,tmp} #创建基础设备节点 sudo mknod -m 666 dev/tty1 c 4 1 sudo mknod -m 666 dev/tty2 c 4 2 sudo mknod -m 666 dev/tty3 c 4 3 sudo mknod -m 666 dev/tty4 c 4 4 sudo mknod -m 666 dev/console c 5 1 sudo mknod -m 666 dev/null c 1 3 #创建初始启动脚本 cat > etc/init.d/rcS << EOF #!/bin/sh mount -t proc proc /proc mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys mount -t devtmpfs devtmpfs /dev mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /tmp EOF chmod +x etc/init.d/rcS #制作initramfs镜像 find . -print0 | cpio --null -ov --format=newc | gzip -9 > ../initrd.img cd .. #容量信息 @@@:~/linux$ ls -alh ./ -rw-r--r-- 1 l16952 l16952 33M Jun 16 10:24 Image -rw-r--r-- 1 l16952 l16952 1.2M Jun 16 10:45 initrd.img -rw-r--r-- 1 l16952 l16952 1.6M Jun 16 09:37 u-boot.bin

三、uboot启动kernel

3.1 制作镜像

创建虚拟磁盘，存放Image，initrd.img。让uboot通过virtio读取并加载启动

#创建128MB的空磁盘文件 dd if=/dev/zero of=disk.img bs=1M count=128 #烧录内核 Image 到磁盘的 0 偏移处 dd if=Image of=disk.img bs=1M conv=notrunc #烧录根文件系统 initrd.img 到磁盘偏移 50MB 处 dd if=initrd.img of=disk.img bs=1M seek=50 conv=notrunc

3.2 启动镜像

#定义一块virtio块设备，运行程序访问该设备获取disk.img中的镜像 qemu-system-aarch64 \ -machine virt,virtualization=on \ -cpu cortex-a53 \ -m 1024M \ -bios u-boot.bin \ -drive file=disk.img,format=raw,if=none,id=mydisk \ -device virtio-blk-device,drive=mydisk \ -nographic #进uboot命令行，执行以下操作 #读取内核Image virtio read 0x40080000 0x0 0x11170 #读取initrd.img virtio read 0x44000000 0x19000 0xBB8 #设置启动参数 setenv bootargs "rdinit=/sbin/init console=ttyAMA0 loglevel=8" #指定 initrd 内存段的起始地址和具体十六进制大小 booti 0x40080000 0x44000000:0x125cb4 $fdtcontroladdr

3.3 自动启动

使用环境变量，或者脚本，但是因为没有固化到介质中，所以重启qemu仍会丢失

#设置环境变量 setenv bootcmd 'virtio read 0x40080000 0x0 0x11170; virtio read 0x44000000 0x19000 0xBB8; setenv bootargs "rdinit=/sbin/init console=ttyAMA0 loglevel=8"; booti 0x40080000 0x44000000:0x125cb4 $fdtcontroladdr' #保存环境变量 saveenv #kernel下reboot Please press Enter to activate this console. ~ #reboot umount: devtmpfs busy - remounted read-only umount: can't unmount /: Invalid argument swapoff: can't open '/etc/fstab': No such file or directory The system is going down NOW! Sent SIGTERM to all processes Sent SIGKILL to all processes Requesting system reboot #boot下reset Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 => reset resetting ...

3.4 固化启动配置

让uboot拥有两块flash，使用文件来模拟，存储boot镜像和环境变量。

#生成第一块 64MB 的 Flash，并把 u-boot.bin 重新烧进去 dd if=/dev/zero of=pflash.img bs=1M count=64 dd if=u-boot.bin of=pflash.img conv=notrunc #生成第二块 64MB 的 Flash，专门给 U-Boot 存环境变量 dd if=/dev/zero of=pflash_env.img bs=1M count=64 #用双flash命令启动QEMU qemu-system-aarch64 \ -machine virt,virtualization=on \ -cpu cortex-a53 \ -m 1024M \ -drive file=pflash.img,format=raw,if=pflash \ -drive file=pflash_env.img,format=raw,if=pflash \ -drive file=disk.img,format=raw,if=none,id=mydisk \ -device virtio-blk-device,drive=mydisk \ -nographic #保存环境变量，这次是真实写入pflash_env.img中 setenv bootcmd 'virtio read 0x40080000 0x0 0x11170; virtio read 0x44000000 0x19000 0xBB8; setenv bootargs "rdinit=/sbin/init console=ttyAMA0 loglevel=8"; booti 0x40080000 0x44000000:0x125cb4 $fdtcontroladdr' saveenv #后续直接用QEMU命令即可启动uboot+kernel qemu-system-aarch64 \ -machine virt,virtualization=on \ -cpu cortex-a53 \ -m 1024M \ -drive file=pflash.img,format=raw,if=pflash \ -drive file=pflash_env.img,format=raw,if=pflash \ -drive file=disk.img,format=raw,if=none,id=mydisk \ -device virtio-blk-device,drive=mydisk \ -nographic
