# Shelter Boot Process
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
Shelter has a very precise boot process to ensure everything goes to plan. In this file, we detail everything that is done for the kernel boot but it doesn't include how to use the kernel API, algorithms, etc. For that, please dig through the documentation.
|
|
|
|
## 1) Basic kernel initialization
|
|
|
|
1.1) Print kernel version
|
|
|
|
1.2) Detect and parse boot config
|
|
|
|
1.3) Load basic settings
|
|
|
|
1.3.1) Load logging ring size
|
|
|
|
1.3.2) Load serial port settings
|
|
|
|
1.3.3) Load PTP virtual address
|
|
|
|
1.3.4) Load kernel log level
|
|

|
|
Starting here, all logs go through the standard log API.
