警告:以下内容不是该规范文档的一部分,但为了未来的操作系统及启动载入器作者,而包括进来。
考虑在Multiboot信息结构体中‘flags’参数的第0位,如果讨论中的启动载入器使用旧的BIOS接口,或最新的不可用(参考关于第6位的描述),那么可能报告一个15或63M的内存最大值。强烈建议启动载入器执行一个详细的内存探测。
至于在Multiboot信息结构体中‘flags’参数的第1位,它顶多被识别为,在一个操作系统上,确定哪个BIOS设备映射到哪个设备驱动不是无关紧要的。对各种操作系统,许多拼凑的处理已经被使用,而不是解决这个问题,它们中的绝大多数在许多条件下会崩溃。为了鼓励这个问题的通用的解决方案,有两种BIOS设备映射技术(参考4.2节【BIOS设备映射技术】,12页)。
考虑在Multiboot信息结构体中‘flags’参数的第6位,重要的是注意到在这里使用的数据结构(由‘BaseAddrLow’开始)是由INT 15h, AX=E820h — 查询系统地址映射(Query System Address Map)调用返回的数据。更多信息参考GRUB手册的“查询系统地址映射”一节。这里的接口是为了允许一个启动载入器,不需要修改就可以与BIOS接口的合理扩展一起工作,根据需要传递任何由操作系统解释的额外数据。
这两个技术应该可以用于任何PC操作系统,而且都不要求驱动本身提供特殊支持。本节将被展开为详细的解释,特别对于I/O限制技术(restriction technique)。
通用的规则是,数据比较技术是快速、肮脏的解决方案。在绝大多数时间,它能够工作,但不能覆盖所有的基点,而且相对简单。
I/O限制技术要复杂得多,但它有在所有条件下解决这个问题的潜力,再加上,当剩下的BIOS设备不都是有操作系统驱动时,也允许访问它们。
在激活任意设备驱动之前,在可以被唯一识别的每个硬盘上,从相似的扇区收集足够数据。
在激活该设备驱动之后,比较来自使用操作系统驱动的设备的数据。有希望足够提供这样的一个映射。
问题:
1. 某些BIOS设备上的数据可能是相同的(因此从BIOS读入驱动的部分应该有放弃的机制)。
2. 可能有从BIOS无法访问的额外设备,它与该BIOS使用的某些设备相同(因此也应该能在这种情形下放弃)。
这个第一步可能不是必要的,但首先为写入PC ram的设备驱动构建写时拷贝(copy-on-write)映射。为随后构建的BIOS虚拟机保留原始拷贝。
对于每个在线的设备驱动,确定哪个BIOS设备变成不可访问,通过:
1. 构建一个干净的BIOS虚拟机。
2. 把由这个设备驱动所要求的I/O区域的I/O许可映射设置为不许可(不能读写)。
3. 访问每个设备
4. 记录哪个设备成功了,哪些尝试访问受限I/O区域(足够幸运的话,这将是一个xor的情形)。
对于每个设备驱动, 给定由它归纳的BIOS设备(在这个列表中不应该有缺失),应该很容易确定在控制器上有哪些设备。
通常,给定BIOS号,从每个控制器你至少有2个硬盘,它们几乎总是从控制器上逻辑号最低的设备算起。
在这个发布版本中,包括了Multiboot内核‘kernel’。这个内核只是在屏幕上打印出Multiboot信息结构体,因此你可以使用这个内核来测试一个Multiboot兼容的驱动载入器,并作为如何实现一个Multiboot内核的参考。在Multiboot源代码发布版的‘doc’目录下可以找到源代码。
内核‘kernel’仅包含了3个文件:‘boot.S’,‘kernel.c’及‘multiboot.h’。汇编源代码‘boot.S’以GAS(参考在The GNU assembler中的“GNU assembler”)写就,并包含了Multiboot信息结构体来遵循规范。当一个Multiboot兼容的驱动载入器载入并执行它时,它初始化栈指针及EFLAGS,然后调用在‘kernel.c’中定义的函数cmain。如果cmain返回到这个被调用者,它显示一个消息来通知用户它的停止状态,并永久停止,直到你按下reset键。文件‘kernel.c’包含函数cmain,它检查由启动载入器传入的魔数是否有效等等,及某些在屏幕上打印消息的函数。文件‘multiboot.h’定义了一些宏,比如用于Multiboot头的魔数,Multiboot头结构体及Multiboot信息结构体。
这是在‘multiboot.h’中的源代码:

其它有用的信息可以在Multiboot内核中得到,比如GNU Mach及Fiascohttp://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/fiasco/。及值得注意的OSKit http://www.cs.utah.edu/projects/flux/oskit/,它提供了一个支持这个规范的库。
GNU GRUB(参考GRUB手册中的“GRUB”一节)项目是一个Multiboot兼容的启动载入器,支持所有在这个规范中所要求及许多可选的特性。源代码可从GNU网站下下载。
