Linux 2.6版内核iPhone版正式发布

来自：本站作者：gregwym 我要评论

我非常高兴的宣布Linux 2.6版内核成功移植到Apple iPhone上, 同时支持一代和二代iPhone, 以及一代iPod touch. 这只是个粗糙的草案, 仍缺少许多驱动, 但这已经是个真正在iPhone上可替代Mac OS X的操作系统了.

现在已经完成的:
- 帧缓冲器驱动
- 串口驱动
- USB串行驱动
- 中断, 存储管理器单元, 时钟…

我们在openiBoot上已完成的(但还未移植):

- NAND闪存的只读支持

我们还未成功的:
- NAND闪存的写入支持
- 无线网络支持
- 触摸屏
- 声音
- 加速感应器
- 基带支持

因考虑到易于操作, 我们现在使用的内核扩展层, 是通过buildroot安装创建的Busybox. 但glibc同样可以很好的工作. 而且我们正在试图建立一个更稳定的内核扩展层解决方案.

Linux on the iPhone!
I'm pleased to announce that the Linux 2.6 kernel has been ported to Apple's iPhone platform, with support for the first and second generation iPhones as well as the first generation iPod touch. This is a rough first draft of the port, and many drivers are still missing, but it's enough that a real alternative operating system is running on the iPhone.

What we have:

- Framebuffer driver
- Serial driver
- Serial over USB driver
- Interrupts, MMU, clock, etc.

What we have in openiboot (but hasn't been ported yet):

- Read-only support for the NAND

What we don't have (yet!):

- Write support for the NAND
- Wireless networking
- Touchscreen
- Sound
- Accelerometer
- Baseband support

The current userland we're using, in the interest of expedience, is a Busybox installation created with buildroot, but glibc works fine as well, and we're going to build a more permanent userland solution.

If you're experienced with hacking/porting Linux and especially if you're experienced with porting Android, I'd definitely like to hear from you. Come chill in the #iphonelinux channel on irc.osx86.hu. If you're not experienced, and still want to help, you can digg/slashdot this posting to heaven so our little project gets more visibility. Thanks. :)
