Android镜像文件ramdisk.img,system.img,userdata.img介绍

 

  Android 源码编译后,在out目录下生成的三个镜像文件:ramdisk.img,system.img,userdata.img以及它们对应的目录树root,system,data。

 

  ramdisk.img是根文件系统,system.img包括了主要的包、库等文件,userdata.img包括了一些用户数据,android加载这3个映像文件后,会把 system和 userdata分别加载到 ramdisk文件系统中的system和 data目录下。

 

  Ramdisk镜像是采用cpio打包,gzip压缩的。它是对root目录的打包和压缩,ramdisk根文件系统中包含一些对于启动android的很重要的文件,比如内核启动完后加载的第一个进程init、一些重要的配置文件等,总之它控制着整个android的启动。根据 init.rc,init.goldfish.rc来初始化并装载系统库、程序等直到开机完成。

 

  init.rc脚本包括了文件系统初始化、装载的许多过程。init.rc的工作主要是:
    1)设置一些环境变量
    2)创建system、sdcard、data、cache等目录
    3)把一些文件系统mount到一些目录去,如,mount tmpfs tmpfs /sqlite_stmt_journals
    4)设置一些文件的用户群组、权限
    5)设置一些线程参数
    6)设置TCP缓存大

 

  system.img userdata.img这两个镜像都属于yaffs2文件格式。

  system.img文件是system目录的一个映像,类似于linux的根文件系统的映像,放着android的应用程序,配置文件,字体等。

  android启动时首先加载ramdisk.img镜像,并挂载到/目录下,并进行了一系列的初始化动作,包括创建各种需要的目录,初始化console,开启服务等。System.img是在init.rc中指定一些脚本命令,通过init.c进行解析并挂载到根目录下的/system目录下的。

  system/app 这个里面主要存放的是常规下载的应用程序,可以看到都是以APK格式结尾的文件。在这个文件夹下的程序为系统默认的组件,自己安装的软件将不会出现在这里,而是/data/文件夹中。
  system/bin 这个目录下的文件都是系统的本地程序,从bin文件夹名称可以看出是binary二进制的程序,里面主要是Linux系统自带的组件。 system/etc 从文件夹名称来看保存的都是系统的配置文件,比如APN接入点设置等核心配置。
  system/fonts 字体文件夹,除了标准字体和粗体、斜体外可以看到文件体积最大的可能是中文字库,或一些unicode字库。
  system/framework 主要是一些核心的文件,从后缀名为jar可以看出是是系统平台框架。
  system/lib lib目录中存放的主要是系统底层库,如平台运行时库。
  system/media 铃声音乐文件夹,除了常规的铃声外还有一些系统提示事件音
  system/usr 用户文件夹,包含共享、键盘布局、时间区域文件等。

  userdata.img是Android系统中存放用户数据的,它被init进程通过解析init.rc文件mount到/data/目录下,默认里面是没有文件的。

  cache.img,mount在/cache目录下。

  各个镜像生成配置可以查看\build\core\Makefile文件。
