评估及移植BCM5862x及BCM5301x到openwrt平台下：

一、首先得分清楚几个基本概念：

     1、文件系统

  文件系统是操作系统用于明确存储设备（常见的是磁盘，也有基于NAND Flash的固态硬盘）或分区上的文件的方法和数据结构；

即在存储设备上组织文件的方法。操作系统中负责管理和存储文件信息的软件机构称为文件管理系统，简称文件系统。文件系统由三部

分组成：文件系统的接口，对对象操纵和管理的软件集合，对象及属性。从系统角度来看，文件系统是对文件存储设备的空间进行组织

和分配，负责文件存储并对存入的文件进行保护和检索的系统。具体地说，它负责为用户建立文件，存入、读出、修改、转储文件，控

制文件的存取，当用户不再使用时撤销文件等。

　　嵌入式系统中常用的文件系统包括：jffs2、squashfs、ubifs、initramfs、nfs、、、、jffs2是最常用的日志文件系统，ubifs是

属于下一代jffs2，initramfs用于验证kernel是否正常运行，squashfs是一种压缩型文件系统，所占空间要比jffs2小一半，它通过解压

缩文件系统后，创建新分区rootfs_data，通过overlay（需要内核patch支持）文件系统挂载新分区到jffs2上，从而实现可写。使用相

应的文件系统需要相应的内核配置支持。

     各文件系统的制作：

     jffs2：：

     ubifs：：

     suqashfs：：

     initramfs：

　　其中offset是分区开始的偏移地址，MTDPART_OFS_APPEND，表示紧接着上一个分区，

     MTD Core会自动计算和处理分区地址；size是分区的大小，在最后一个分区我们设为

  MTDPART_SIZ_FULL，表示这个NAND剩下的所有部分。这样配置NAND的分区并不是唯

  一的，需要视具体的系统而定，我们可以在kernel中这样显式的指定，也可以使用bootloader

  传给内核的参数进行配置。

     2、内核

     kernel的几种格式：

     vlinux：

     vlinuxz：

     image：

     uImage.img:

SUMMARY

Update a flash memory device

USAGE

flash [options] filename [flashdevice]
Copies data from a source file name or device to a flash memory device.
The source device can be a disk file (FAT filesystem), a remote file
(TFTP) or a flash device. The destination device may be a flash or eeprom.
If the destination device is your boot flash (usually flash0), the flash
command will restart the firmware after the flash update is complete

OPTIONS

-noerase Don't erase flash before writing
-offset=* Begin programming at this offset in the flash device
-size=* Size of source device when programming from flash to flash
-noheader Override header verification, flash binary without checking
-mem Use memory as source instead of a device

CFE> help load

SUMMARY

Load an executable file into memory without executing it

USAGE

load [-options] host:filename|dev:filename
This command loads an executable file into memory, but does not
execute it. It can be used for loading data files, overlays or
other programs needed before the 'boot' command is used. By
default, 'load' will load a raw binary at virtual address 0x20000000.

OPTIONS

-elf Load the file as an ELF executable
-srec Load the file as ASCII S-records
-raw Load the file as a raw binary
-z Load compessed file
-loader=* Specify CFE loader name
-tftp Load the file using the TFTP protocol
-fatfs Load the file from a FAT file system
-rawfs Load the file from an unformatted file system
-fs=* Specify CFE file system name
-max=* Specify the maximum number of bytes to load (raw only)
-addr=* Specify the load address (hex) (raw only)
