24c609719bSwdenkSummary:
25c609719bSwdenk========
26c609719bSwdenk
2724ee89b9SwdenkThis directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
28e86e5a07SwdenkEmbedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
29e86e5a07Swdenkprocessors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
30e86e5a07Swdenkinitialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
31e86e5a07Swdenkcode.
32c609719bSwdenk
33c609719bSwdenkThe development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
3424ee89b9Swdenkthe source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
3524ee89b9Swdenkheader files in common, and special provision has been made to
36c609719bSwdenksupport booting of Linux images.
37c609719bSwdenk
38c609719bSwdenkSome attention has been paid to make this software easily
39c609719bSwdenkconfigurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
40c609719bSwdenkimplemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
41c609719bSwdenkadd new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
42c609719bSwdenkcode (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
43c609719bSwdenkload and run it dynamically.

46c609719bSwdenkStatus:
47c609719bSwdenk=======
48c609719bSwdenk
49c609719bSwdenkIn general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
50c609719bSwdenkMakefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
51c609719bSwdenk"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.

238c609719bSwdenkSoftware Configuration:
239c609719bSwdenk=======================
240c609719bSwdenk
241c609719bSwdenkConfiguration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
242c609719bSwdenkrationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
243c609719bSwdenk
244c609719bSwdenkThere are two classes of configuration variables:
245c609719bSwdenk
246c609719bSwdenk* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
247c609719bSwdenk  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
248c609719bSwdenk  "CONFIG_".
249c609719bSwdenk
250c609719bSwdenk* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
251c609719bSwdenk  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
252c609719bSwdenk  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
2536d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD  "CONFIG_SYS_".
254c609719bSwdenk
255c609719bSwdenkLater we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
256c609719bSwdenkidentical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
257c609719bSwdenkdo the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
258c609719bSwdenklinks and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
259c609719bSwdenkas an example here.
260c609719bSwdenk
261c609719bSwdenk
262c609719bSwdenkSelection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
263c609719bSwdenk---------------------------------------------------
264c609719bSwdenk
265c609719bSwdenkFor all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
266c609719bSwdenkconfigurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
267c609719bSwdenk
268c609719bSwdenkExample: For a TQM823L module type:
269c609719bSwdenk
270c609719bSwdenk	cd u-boot
271c609719bSwdenk	make TQM823L_config
272c609719bSwdenk
27311ccc33fSMarcel ZiswilerFor the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
274c609719bSwdenke.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
275c609719bSwdenkdirectory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
276c609719bSwdenk
277c609719bSwdenk
278c609719bSwdenkConfiguration Options:
279c609719bSwdenk----------------------
280c609719bSwdenk
281c609719bSwdenkConfiguration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
282c609719bSwdenksuch information is kept in a configuration file
283c609719bSwdenk"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
284c609719bSwdenk
285c609719bSwdenkExample: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
286c609719bSwdenk"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
287c609719bSwdenk
288c609719bSwdenk
2897f6c2cbcSwdenkMany of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
2907f6c2cbcSwdenkkernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
2917f6c2cbcSwdenkbuild a config tool - later.
2927f6c2cbcSwdenk
2937f6c2cbcSwdenk
294c609719bSwdenkThe following options need to be configured:
295c609719bSwdenk
2962628114eSKim Phillips- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
297c609719bSwdenk
2982628114eSKim Phillips- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
2996ccec449SWolfgang Denk

506c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
507c609719bSwdenk
508c609719bSwdenk		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
509c609719bSwdenk		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
510c609719bSwdenk		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
511c609719bSwdenk		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
512c609719bSwdenk		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
513c609719bSwdenk		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
514c609719bSwdenk		Linux kernel.
515c609719bSwdenk		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
516c609719bSwdenk		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the

705c92fac91SHeiko Schocher- Console Rx buffer length
706c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
707c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
7082b3f12c2SHeiko Schocher		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
709c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
710c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
711c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		the SMC.
712c92fac91SHeiko Schocher
7139558b48aSGraeme Russ- Pre-Console Buffer:
7149558b48aSGraeme Russ		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
7159558b48aSGraeme Russ		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
7169558b48aSGraeme Russ		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
7179558b48aSGraeme Russ		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
7189558b48aSGraeme Russ		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
7199558b48aSGraeme Russ		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
7209558b48aSGraeme Russ		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
7219558b48aSGraeme Russ		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
7229558b48aSGraeme Russ		earlier bytes are discarded.
7239558b48aSGraeme Russ
7249558b48aSGraeme Russ		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
7259558b48aSGraeme Russ		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
7269558b48aSGraeme Russ
727046a37bdSSonny Rao- Safe printf() functions
728046a37bdSSonny Rao		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
729046a37bdSSonny Rao		the printf() functions. These are defined in
730046a37bdSSonny Rao		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
731046a37bdSSonny Rao		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
732046a37bdSSonny Rao		If this option is not given then these functions will
733046a37bdSSonny Rao		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
734046a37bdSSonny Rao		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
735046a37bdSSonny Rao
736c609719bSwdenk- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
737c609719bSwdenk		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
738c609719bSwdenk		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
73993d7212fSJoe Hershberger		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
74093d7212fSJoe Hershberger		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
741c609719bSwdenk
742c609719bSwdenk		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
743c609719bSwdenk		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
744c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
745c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
746c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED

755c609719bSwdenk- Autoboot Command:
756c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
757c609719bSwdenk		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
758c609719bSwdenk		define a command string that is automatically executed
759c609719bSwdenk		when no character is read on the console interface
760c609719bSwdenk		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
761c609719bSwdenk
762c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
763c609719bSwdenk		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
764c609719bSwdenk		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
765c609719bSwdenk		environment value "bootargs".
766c609719bSwdenk
767c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
768c609719bSwdenk		The value of these goes into the environment as
769c609719bSwdenk		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
770c609719bSwdenk		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
77111ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		RAM and NFS.
772c609719bSwdenk
773c609719bSwdenk- Pre-Boot Commands:
774c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_PREBOOT
775c609719bSwdenk
776c609719bSwdenk		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
777c609719bSwdenk		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
778c609719bSwdenk		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
779c609719bSwdenk		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
780c609719bSwdenk		entering interactive mode.
781c609719bSwdenk
782c609719bSwdenk		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
783c609719bSwdenk		automatically generated or modified. For an example
784c609719bSwdenk		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
785c609719bSwdenk		modified when the user holds down a certain
786c609719bSwdenk		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
787c609719bSwdenk		booting the systems
788c609719bSwdenk
789c609719bSwdenk- Serial Download Echo Mode:
790c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
791c609719bSwdenk		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
792c609719bSwdenk		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
793c609719bSwdenk		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
794c609719bSwdenk		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
795c609719bSwdenk		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
796c609719bSwdenk		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
797c609719bSwdenk
798602ad3b3SJon Loeliger- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)

913c609719bSwdenk		support you can write:
914c609719bSwdenk
915602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
916602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET

920c609719bSwdenk
921c609719bSwdenk	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
922602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
923c609719bSwdenk		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
924c609719bSwdenk		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
925c609719bSwdenk		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
926c609719bSwdenk		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
927c609719bSwdenk		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
928c609719bSwdenk		initial stack and some data.

933a5ecbe62SWolfgang Denk- Regular expression support:
934a5ecbe62SWolfgang Denk		CONFIG_REGEX
935a5ecbe62SWolfgang Denk                If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
936a5ecbe62SWolfgang Denk                the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
937a5ecbe62SWolfgang Denk                which adds regex support to some commands, as for
938a5ecbe62SWolfgang Denk                example "env grep" and "setexpr".
939a5ecbe62SWolfgang Denk
94045ba8077SSimon Glass- Device tree:
94145ba8077SSimon Glass		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
94245ba8077SSimon Glass		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
94345ba8077SSimon Glass		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
94445ba8077SSimon Glass		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
94545ba8077SSimon Glass		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
94645ba8077SSimon Glass		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
94745ba8077SSimon Glass
9482c0f79e4SSimon Glass		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
9492c0f79e4SSimon Glass		be done using one of the two options below:
950bbb0b128SSimon Glass
951bbb0b128SSimon Glass		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
952bbb0b128SSimon Glass		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
953bbb0b128SSimon Glass		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
954bbb0b128SSimon Glass		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
955bbb0b128SSimon Glass		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
956bbb0b128SSimon Glass		the global data structure as gd->blob.
95745ba8077SSimon Glass
9582c0f79e4SSimon Glass		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
9592c0f79e4SSimon Glass		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
9602c0f79e4SSimon Glass		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
9612c0f79e4SSimon Glass		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
9622c0f79e4SSimon Glass
9632c0f79e4SSimon Glass			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
9642c0f79e4SSimon Glass
9652c0f79e4SSimon Glass		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
9662c0f79e4SSimon Glass		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
9672c0f79e4SSimon Glass		still use the individual files if you need something more
9682c0f79e4SSimon Glass		exotic.
9692c0f79e4SSimon Glass
970c609719bSwdenk- Watchdog:
971c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
972c609719bSwdenk		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
9736abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
9746abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
9756abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
9766abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
9776abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		available, then no further board specific code should
9786abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		be needed to use it.
9796abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel
9806abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
9816abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
9826abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
9836abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
984c609719bSwdenk
985c1551ea8Sstroese- U-Boot Version:
986c1551ea8Sstroese		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
987c1551ea8Sstroese		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
988c1551ea8Sstroese		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
989c1551ea8Sstroese		version as printed by the "version" command.
990a1ea8e51SBenoît Thébaudeau		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
991a1ea8e51SBenoît Thébaudeau		next reset.
992c1551ea8Sstroese

10215dec49caSChris Packham		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
10225dec49caSChris Packham		pins supported by a particular chip.
10235dec49caSChris Packham
1024e92739d3SPeter Tyser		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1025e92739d3SPeter Tyser		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.

1541676d319eSSimon Glass		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1542676d319eSSimon Glass
1543676d319eSSimon Glass		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1544676d319eSSimon Glass		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1545676d319eSSimon Glass		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1546676d319eSSimon Glass		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1547676d319eSSimon Glass		a per-section basis.

15657152b1d0Swdenk- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1566d791b1dcSwdenk
1567d791b1dcSwdenk		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1568d791b1dcSwdenk		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1569d791b1dcSwdenk		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1570e94d2cd9Swdenk		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1571d791b1dcSwdenk		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1572d791b1dcSwdenk		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1573d791b1dcSwdenk		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1574d791b1dcSwdenk		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1575d791b1dcSwdenk
1576c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1577c0880485SNikita Kiryanov
1578c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1579c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1580c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		(see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses).
1581c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1582c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1583c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1584c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1585c0880485SNikita Kiryanov		there is no need to set this option.

15871ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
15881ca298ceSMatthias Weisser
15891ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
15901ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
15911ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
15921ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
15931ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
15941ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		specify 'm' for centering the image.
15951ca298ceSMatthias Weisser
15961ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		Example:
15971ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		setenv splashpos m,m
15981ca298ceSMatthias Weisser			=> image at center of screen
15991ca298ceSMatthias Weisser
16001ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		setenv splashpos 30,20
16011ca298ceSMatthias Weisser			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
16021ca298ceSMatthias Weisser
16031ca298ceSMatthias Weisser		setenv splashpos -10,m
16041ca298ceSMatthias Weisser			=> vertically centered image

1608581bb419SNikita Kiryanov
1609581bb419SNikita Kiryanov		If this option is set then the board_splash_screen_prepare()
1610581bb419SNikita Kiryanov		function, which must be defined in your code, is called as part
1611581bb419SNikita Kiryanov		of the splash screen display sequence. It gives the board an
1612581bb419SNikita Kiryanov		opportunity to prepare the splash image data before it is
1613581bb419SNikita Kiryanov		processed and sent to the frame buffer by U-Boot.

161598f4a3dfSStefan Roese- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
161698f4a3dfSStefan Roese
161798f4a3dfSStefan Roese		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
161898f4a3dfSStefan Roese		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
161998f4a3dfSStefan Roese		splashscreen support or the bmp command.

1622d5011762SAnatolij Gustschin
1623d5011762SAnatolij Gustschin		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1624d5011762SAnatolij Gustschin		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1625d5011762SAnatolij Gustschin		bmp command.

1629f2b96dfbSLei Wen
1630f2b96dfbSLei Wen		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1631f2b96dfbSLei Wen		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1632f2b96dfbSLei Wen
1633c29fdfc1Swdenk- Compression support:
1634c29fdfc1Swdenk		CONFIG_BZIP2
1635c29fdfc1Swdenk
1636c29fdfc1Swdenk		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1637c29fdfc1Swdenk		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1638c29fdfc1Swdenk		compressed images are supported.
1639c29fdfc1Swdenk
1640c29fdfc1Swdenk		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
16416d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1642c29fdfc1Swdenk		be at least 4MB.

1645fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1646fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1647fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		images is included.
1648fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1649fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1650fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1651fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		formula:
1652fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1653fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1654fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1655fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1656fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		and Literal pos bits.
1657fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1658fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1659fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1660fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1661fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		a very small buffer.
1662fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1663fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1664fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
16656d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).

168117ea1177Swdenk		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
168217ea1177Swdenk
168317ea1177Swdenk		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
168417ea1177Swdenk		reset before any MII register access is possible.
168517ea1177Swdenk		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay

1751c609719bSwdenk- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1752c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1753c609719bSwdenk
1754c609719bSwdenk		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1755c609719bSwdenk		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1756c609719bSwdenk		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same

1758c609719bSwdenk		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1759c609719bSwdenk		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1760c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1761c609719bSwdenk		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
17626c33c785SWolfgang Denk		following delays are inserted then:
1763c609719bSwdenk

1790fe389a82Sstroese
17912c00e099SJoe Hershberger		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
17922c00e099SJoe Hershberger		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
17932c00e099SJoe Hershberger		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over

18101fe80d79SJon Loeliger		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
18111fe80d79SJon Loeliger		option 12 to the DHCP server.
1812fe389a82Sstroese
1813d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1814d9a2f416SAras Vaichas
1815d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1816d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1817d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1818d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1819d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1820d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1821d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1822d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1823d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1824d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1825d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		this delay.

1827d22c338eSJoe Hershberger - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1828d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1829d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1830d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1831d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1832d22c338eSJoe Hershberger
1833d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		See doc/README.link-local for more information.

1835a3d991bdSwdenk - CDP Options:
1836a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
1837a3d991bdSwdenk
1838a3d991bdSwdenk		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
1839a3d991bdSwdenk
1840a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
1841a3d991bdSwdenk
1842a3d991bdSwdenk		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
1843a3d991bdSwdenk		of the device.
1844a3d991bdSwdenk
1845a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1846a3d991bdSwdenk
1847a3d991bdSwdenk		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1848a3d991bdSwdenk		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
184911ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
1850a3d991bdSwdenk
1851a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
1852a3d991bdSwdenk
1853a3d991bdSwdenk		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
1854a3d991bdSwdenk		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
1855a3d991bdSwdenk
1856a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
1857a3d991bdSwdenk
1858a3d991bdSwdenk		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
1859a3d991bdSwdenk
1860a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
1861a3d991bdSwdenk
1862a3d991bdSwdenk		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
1863a3d991bdSwdenk
1864a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER

1870a3d991bdSwdenk		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
1871a3d991bdSwdenk		device in .1 of milliwatts.
1872a3d991bdSwdenk
1873a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
1874a3d991bdSwdenk
1875a3d991bdSwdenk		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
1876a3d991bdSwdenk
1877c609719bSwdenk- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
1878c609719bSwdenk
1879c609719bSwdenk		Several configurations allow to display the current
1880c609719bSwdenk		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
1881c609719bSwdenk		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
1882c609719bSwdenk		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
1883c609719bSwdenk		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
1884c609719bSwdenk		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
1885c609719bSwdenk		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
1886c609719bSwdenk		feature in U-Boot.
1887c609719bSwdenk
1888c609719bSwdenk- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
1889c609719bSwdenk
1890c609719bSwdenk		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
1891c609719bSwdenk		on those systems that support this (optional)
1892c609719bSwdenk		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
1893c609719bSwdenk
1894c609719bSwdenk- I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C
1895c609719bSwdenk
1896b37c7e5eSwdenk		These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of
1897b37c7e5eSwdenk		(but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will
189811ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected CPU.
1899c609719bSwdenk
1900b37c7e5eSwdenk		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
1901602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
1902b37c7e5eSwdenk		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
1903b37c7e5eSwdenk		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
1904c609719bSwdenk		command line interface.
1905c609719bSwdenk
1906bb99ad6dSBen Warren		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
1907c609719bSwdenk
1908b37c7e5eSwdenk		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka
1909b37c7e5eSwdenk		bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware
1910b37c7e5eSwdenk		support for I2C.
1911c609719bSwdenk
1912b37c7e5eSwdenk		There are several other quantities that must also be
1913b37c7e5eSwdenk		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C.
1914c609719bSwdenk
19156d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
1916b37c7e5eSwdenk		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
19176d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
191811ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		the CPU's i2c node address).
1919c609719bSwdenk
19208d321b81SPeter Tyser		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
1921a47a12beSStefan Roese		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
19228d321b81SPeter Tyser		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
19238d321b81SPeter Tyser		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
19248d321b81SPeter Tyser		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
1925b37c7e5eSwdenk
19265da71efaSEric Millbrandt		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
19275da71efaSEric Millbrandt
19285da71efaSEric Millbrandt		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
19295da71efaSEric Millbrandt		chips might think that the current transfer is still
19305da71efaSEric Millbrandt		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
19315da71efaSEric Millbrandt		commands until the slave device responds.
19325da71efaSEric Millbrandt
1933b37c7e5eSwdenk		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
1934b37c7e5eSwdenk
1935b37c7e5eSwdenk		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C)
1936b37c7e5eSwdenk		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
1937b37c7e5eSwdenk		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
1938c609719bSwdenk
1939c609719bSwdenk		I2C_INIT
1940c609719bSwdenk
1941b37c7e5eSwdenk		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
1942c609719bSwdenk		controller or configure ports.
1943c609719bSwdenk
1944b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
1945b37c7e5eSwdenk
1946c609719bSwdenk		I2C_PORT
1947c609719bSwdenk
1948c609719bSwdenk		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
1949c609719bSwdenk		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
1950c609719bSwdenk		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
1951c609719bSwdenk
1952c609719bSwdenk		I2C_ACTIVE
1953c609719bSwdenk
1954c609719bSwdenk		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
1955c609719bSwdenk		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
1956c609719bSwdenk		define can be null.
1957c609719bSwdenk
1958b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
1959b37c7e5eSwdenk
1960c609719bSwdenk		I2C_TRISTATE
1961c609719bSwdenk
1962c609719bSwdenk		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
1963c609719bSwdenk		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
1964c609719bSwdenk		define can be null.
1965c609719bSwdenk
1966b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
1967b37c7e5eSwdenk
1968c609719bSwdenk		I2C_READ
1969c609719bSwdenk
1970472d5460SYork Sun		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
1971472d5460SYork Sun		false if it is low.
1972c609719bSwdenk
1973b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
1974b37c7e5eSwdenk
1975c609719bSwdenk		I2C_SDA(bit)
1976c609719bSwdenk
1977472d5460SYork Sun		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
1978472d5460SYork Sun		is false, it clears it (low).
1979c609719bSwdenk
1980b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
1981b37c7e5eSwdenk			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
1982b37c7e5eSwdenk			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
1983b37c7e5eSwdenk
1984c609719bSwdenk		I2C_SCL(bit)
1985c609719bSwdenk
1986472d5460SYork Sun		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
1987472d5460SYork Sun		is false, it clears it (low).
1988c609719bSwdenk
1989b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
1990b37c7e5eSwdenk			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
1991b37c7e5eSwdenk			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
1992b37c7e5eSwdenk
1993c609719bSwdenk		I2C_DELAY
1994c609719bSwdenk
1995c609719bSwdenk		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
1996c609719bSwdenk		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
1997b37c7e5eSwdenk		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
1998b37c7e5eSwdenk		like:
1999b37c7e5eSwdenk
2000b37c7e5eSwdenk		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2001c609719bSwdenk
2002793b5726SMike Frysinger		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2003793b5726SMike Frysinger
2004793b5726SMike Frysinger		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2005793b5726SMike Frysinger		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2006793b5726SMike Frysinger		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2007793b5726SMike Frysinger		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2008793b5726SMike Frysinger
2009793b5726SMike Frysinger		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2010793b5726SMike Frysinger		the generic GPIO functions.
2011793b5726SMike Frysinger
20126d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
201347cd00faSwdenk
201447cd00faSwdenk		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
201547cd00faSwdenk		chips might think that the current transfer is still
201647cd00faSwdenk		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
201747cd00faSwdenk		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
201847cd00faSwdenk		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
201947cd00faSwdenk		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
202047cd00faSwdenk		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
202147cd00faSwdenk		is run early in the boot sequence.
202247cd00faSwdenk
202326a33504SRichard Retanubun		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
202426a33504SRichard Retanubun
202526a33504SRichard Retanubun		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
202626a33504SRichard Retanubun		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
202726a33504SRichard Retanubun		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
202826a33504SRichard Retanubun		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
202926a33504SRichard Retanubun		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
203026a33504SRichard Retanubun		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
203126a33504SRichard Retanubun		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
203226a33504SRichard Retanubun		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
203326a33504SRichard Retanubun
203417ea1177Swdenk		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
203517ea1177Swdenk
203617ea1177Swdenk		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
203717ea1177Swdenk		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
203817ea1177Swdenk		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
203917ea1177Swdenk
2040bb99ad6dSBen Warren		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2041bb99ad6dSBen Warren
2042bb99ad6dSBen Warren		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2043bb99ad6dSBen Warren		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2044bb99ad6dSBen Warren		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2045bb99ad6dSBen Warren		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2046bb99ad6dSBen Warren
20476d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2048bb99ad6dSBen Warren
2049bb99ad6dSBen Warren		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
20500f89c54bSPeter Tyser		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
20510f89c54bSPeter Tyser		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
20520f89c54bSPeter Tyser		a 1D array of device addresses
2053bb99ad6dSBen Warren
2054bb99ad6dSBen Warren		e.g.
2055bb99ad6dSBen Warren			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
20566d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2057bb99ad6dSBen Warren
2058bb99ad6dSBen Warren		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2059bb99ad6dSBen Warren
2060bb99ad6dSBen Warren			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
20616d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2062bb99ad6dSBen Warren
2063bb99ad6dSBen Warren		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2064bb99ad6dSBen Warren
20656d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2066be5e6181STimur Tabi
2067be5e6181STimur Tabi		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2068be5e6181STimur Tabi		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2069be5e6181STimur Tabi
20706d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
20710dc018ecSStefan Roese
20720dc018ecSStefan Roese		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
20730dc018ecSStefan Roese		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
20740dc018ecSStefan Roese
20756d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
20760dc018ecSStefan Roese
20770dc018ecSStefan Roese		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
20780dc018ecSStefan Roese		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
20790dc018ecSStefan Roese
20806d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
20819ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo
20829ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
20839ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
20849ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo		specified DTT device.
20859ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo
2086be5e6181STimur Tabi		CONFIG_FSL_I2C
2087be5e6181STimur Tabi
2088be5e6181STimur Tabi		Define this option if you want to use Freescale's I2C driver in
20897817cb20SMarcel Ziswiler		drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c.
2090be5e6181STimur Tabi
209167b23a32SHeiko Schocher		CONFIG_I2C_MUX
209267b23a32SHeiko Schocher
209367b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Define this option if you have I2C devices reached over 1 .. n
209467b23a32SHeiko Schocher		I2C Muxes like the pca9544a. This option addes a new I2C
209567b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Command "i2c bus [muxtype:muxaddr:muxchannel]" which adds a
209667b23a32SHeiko Schocher		new I2C Bus to the existing I2C Busses. If you select the
209767b23a32SHeiko Schocher		new Bus with "i2c dev", u-bbot sends first the commandos for
209867b23a32SHeiko Schocher		the muxes to activate this new "bus".
209967b23a32SHeiko Schocher
210067b23a32SHeiko Schocher		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS must be also defined, to use this
210167b23a32SHeiko Schocher		feature!

2252c609719bSwdenk		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2253c609719bSwdenk
2254c609719bSwdenk- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2255c609719bSwdenk
2256c609719bSwdenk		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2257c609719bSwdenk		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
22587152b1d0Swdenk		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2259c609719bSwdenk		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2260c609719bSwdenk		protects these variables from casual modification by
2261c609719bSwdenk		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2262c609719bSwdenk		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
226311ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		change this behaviour:
2264c609719bSwdenk
2265c609719bSwdenk		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2266c609719bSwdenk		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
226747cd00faSwdenk		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2268c609719bSwdenk		these parameters.
2269c609719bSwdenk
2270c609719bSwdenk		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2271c609719bSwdenk		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
227211ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2273c609719bSwdenk		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2274c609719bSwdenk		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2275c609719bSwdenk		read-only.]
2276c609719bSwdenk
22772598090bSJoe Hershberger		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
22782598090bSJoe Hershberger		for any variable by configuring the type of access
22792598090bSJoe Hershberger		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
22802598090bSJoe Hershberger		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
22812598090bSJoe Hershberger
2282c609719bSwdenk- Protected RAM:
2283c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_PRAM
2284c609719bSwdenk
2285c609719bSwdenk		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2286c609719bSwdenk		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2287c609719bSwdenk		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2288c609719bSwdenk		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2289c609719bSwdenk		this default value by defining an environment
2290c609719bSwdenk		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2291c609719bSwdenk		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2292c609719bSwdenk		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2293c609719bSwdenk		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2294c609719bSwdenk		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2295c609719bSwdenk		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2296c609719bSwdenk		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2297c609719bSwdenk
2298fe126d8bSWolfgang Denk			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2299c609719bSwdenk			saveenv
2300c609719bSwdenk
2301c609719bSwdenk		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2302c609719bSwdenk		either, which results in a memory region that will
2303c609719bSwdenk		not be affected by reboots.
2304c609719bSwdenk
2305c609719bSwdenk		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2306c609719bSwdenk		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2307c609719bSwdenk		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2308c609719bSwdenk		following board configurations are known to be
2309c609719bSwdenk		"pRAM-clean":

2324c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2325c609719bSwdenk
2326c609719bSwdenk		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2327c609719bSwdenk		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2328c609719bSwdenk		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
232911ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		system where you want the system to reboot
2330c609719bSwdenk		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2331c609719bSwdenk		useful during development since you can try to debug
2332c609719bSwdenk		the conditions that lead to the situation.

2362c609719bSwdenk
2363c609719bSwdenk		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2364c609719bSwdenk		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2365c609719bSwdenk		powerful command line syntax like
2366c609719bSwdenk		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2367c609719bSwdenk		constructs ("shell scripts").
2368c609719bSwdenk
2369c609719bSwdenk		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour

2388c609719bSwdenk
2389c609719bSwdenk		Global environment variables are those you use
2390c609719bSwdenk		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored

2423c609719bSwdenk		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
24247152b1d0Swdenk		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2425c609719bSwdenk		You better know what you are doing here.
2426c609719bSwdenk
2427c609719bSwdenk		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2428c609719bSwdenk		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
242974de7aefSWolfgang Denk		the environment like the "source" command or the
2430c609719bSwdenk		boot command first.

24325e724ca2SStephen Warren		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
24335e724ca2SStephen Warren
24345e724ca2SStephen Warren		Define this in order to add variables describing the
24355e724ca2SStephen Warren		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
24365e724ca2SStephen Warren		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
24375e724ca2SStephen Warren
24385e724ca2SStephen Warren		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
24395e724ca2SStephen Warren
24405e724ca2SStephen Warren		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
24415e724ca2SStephen Warren		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU

24455e724ca2SStephen Warren
24467e27f89fSTom Rini		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
24477e27f89fSTom Rini
24487e27f89fSTom Rini		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
24497e27f89fSTom Rini		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
24507e27f89fSTom Rini		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
24517e27f89fSTom Rini
245206fd8538SSimon Glass		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
245306fd8538SSimon Glass
245406fd8538SSimon Glass		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
245506fd8538SSimon Glass		intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
245606fd8538SSimon Glass		that so that the environment is not available until
245706fd8538SSimon Glass		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
245806fd8538SSimon Glass		this is instead controlled by the value of
245906fd8538SSimon Glass		/config/load-environment.
246006fd8538SSimon Glass
2461a8c7c708Swdenk- DataFlash Support:
24622abbe075Swdenk		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
24632abbe075Swdenk
24642abbe075Swdenk		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
24652abbe075Swdenk		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
24662abbe075Swdenk		commands cp, md...
24672abbe075Swdenk
2468f61ec45eSEric Nelson- Serial Flash support
2469f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2470f61ec45eSEric Nelson
2471f61ec45eSEric Nelson		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2472f61ec45eSEric Nelson		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2473f61ec45eSEric Nelson
2474f61ec45eSEric Nelson		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2475f61ec45eSEric Nelson		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2476f61ec45eSEric Nelson		commands.
2477f61ec45eSEric Nelson
2478f61ec45eSEric Nelson		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2479f61ec45eSEric Nelson		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2480f61ec45eSEric Nelson		flash is present on the system.
2481f61ec45eSEric Nelson
2482f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2483f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2484f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2485f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2486f61ec45eSEric Nelson
248724007273SSimon Glass		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
248824007273SSimon Glass
248924007273SSimon Glass		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
249024007273SSimon Glass		test ('sf test').
249124007273SSimon Glass
24923f85ce27Swdenk- SystemACE Support:
24933f85ce27Swdenk		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
24943f85ce27Swdenk
24953f85ce27Swdenk		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
24963f85ce27Swdenk		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
249711ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		of the chip must also be defined in the
24986d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
24993f85ce27Swdenk
25003f85ce27Swdenk		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
25016d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
25023f85ce27Swdenk
25033f85ce27Swdenk		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
25043f85ce27Swdenk		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
25053f85ce27Swdenk
2506ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2507ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2508ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk
250928cb9375SWolfgang Denk		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2510ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
251128cb9375SWolfgang Denk		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2512ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		number generator is used.
2513ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk
251428cb9375SWolfgang Denk		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
251528cb9375SWolfgang Denk		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
251628cb9375SWolfgang Denk		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
251728cb9375SWolfgang Denk
251828cb9375SWolfgang Denk		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2519ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2520ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2521ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2522ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2523ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2524ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2525ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk
2526bf36c5d5SSimon Glass- Hashing support:
2527bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
2528bf36c5d5SSimon Glass
2529bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2530bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2531bf36c5d5SSimon Glass
2532bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
2533bf36c5d5SSimon Glass
2534bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2535bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		size a little.
2536bf36c5d5SSimon Glass
2537bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2538bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2539bf36c5d5SSimon Glass
2540bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2541bf36c5d5SSimon Glass		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2542bf36c5d5SSimon Glass
2543a8c7c708Swdenk- Show boot progress:
2544c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2545c609719bSwdenk
2546c609719bSwdenk		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2547c609719bSwdenk		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2548c609719bSwdenk		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2549c609719bSwdenk		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2550c609719bSwdenk		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2551c609719bSwdenk		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2552c609719bSwdenk
25533a608ca0SSimon Glass- Detailed boot stage timing
25543a608ca0SSimon Glass		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
25553a608ca0SSimon Glass		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
25563a608ca0SSimon Glass		of the boot process.
25573a608ca0SSimon Glass
25583a608ca0SSimon Glass		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
25593a608ca0SSimon Glass		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
25603a608ca0SSimon Glass		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
25613a608ca0SSimon Glass		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
25623a608ca0SSimon Glass		the limit, recording will stop.
25633a608ca0SSimon Glass
25643a608ca0SSimon Glass		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
25653a608ca0SSimon Glass		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
25663a608ca0SSimon Glass
25673a608ca0SSimon Glass		Timer summary in microseconds:
25683a608ca0SSimon Glass		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
25693a608ca0SSimon Glass			  0          0  reset

25763a608ca0SSimon Glass		 30,361,327    445,160  start_kernel
25773a608ca0SSimon Glass
25782eba38cfSSimon Glass		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
25792eba38cfSSimon Glass		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
25802eba38cfSSimon Glass		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
25812eba38cfSSimon Glass
258294fd1316SSimon Glass		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
258394fd1316SSimon Glass		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
258494fd1316SSimon Glass		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
258594fd1316SSimon Glass		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
258694fd1316SSimon Glass		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
258794fd1316SSimon Glass		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
258894fd1316SSimon Glass		For example:
258994fd1316SSimon Glass
259094fd1316SSimon Glass		bootstage {
259194fd1316SSimon Glass			154 {
259294fd1316SSimon Glass				name = "board_init_f";
259394fd1316SSimon Glass				mark = <3575678>;
259494fd1316SSimon Glass			};
259594fd1316SSimon Glass			170 {
259694fd1316SSimon Glass				name = "lcd";
259794fd1316SSimon Glass				accum = <33482>;
259894fd1316SSimon Glass			};
259994fd1316SSimon Glass		};
260094fd1316SSimon Glass
260194fd1316SSimon Glass		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

29886113d3f2SBenoît Thébaudeau		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
29896113d3f2SBenoît Thébaudeau		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
29906113d3f2SBenoît Thébaudeau		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
29916113d3f2SBenoît Thébaudeau		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
29926113d3f2SBenoît Thébaudeau		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.

2994ca2fca22SScott Wood		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
2995ca2fca22SScott Wood		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
2996ca2fca22SScott Wood		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
2997ca2fca22SScott Wood		example if more than one image needs to be produced.

299987ebee39SSimon Glass		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
300087ebee39SSimon Glass		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
300187ebee39SSimon Glass		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
300287ebee39SSimon Glass		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
300387ebee39SSimon Glass		bootm command when booting a FIT image.

3017c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3018c609719bSwdenk
3019c609719bSwdenk		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3020c609719bSwdenk		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3021c609719bSwdenk
3022a8c7c708Swdenk- Interrupt support (PPC):
3023a8c7c708Swdenk
3024a8c7c708Swdenk		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3025a8c7c708Swdenk		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
302611ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3027a8c7c708Swdenk		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
302811ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3029a8c7c708Swdenk		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
303011ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3031a8c7c708Swdenk		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3032a8c7c708Swdenk		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3033a8c7c708Swdenk		general timer_interrupt().
3034a8c7c708Swdenk
3035c609719bSwdenk- General:
3036c609719bSwdenk
3037c609719bSwdenk		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3038c609719bSwdenk		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3039c609719bSwdenk		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
304011ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3041c609719bSwdenk		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3042c609719bSwdenk		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3043c609719bSwdenk		initialization.
3044c609719bSwdenk
3045c609719bSwdenk		If there are no modem init strings in the
3046c609719bSwdenk		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3047c609719bSwdenk		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
304811ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		suppressed, though.

30549660e442SHelmut Raiger
30559660e442SHelmut RaigerDuring Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
30569660e442SHelmut Raigerto allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
30579660e442SHelmut Raigerbefore drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the

31186d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
31196d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
312014f73ca6SStefan Roese		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
312111ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By

312314f73ca6SStefan Roese		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
312414f73ca6SStefan Roese		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
31255e12e75dSStefan Roese		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
312614f73ca6SStefan Roese		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
31275e12e75dSStefan Roese		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
312814f73ca6SStefan Roese
312914f73ca6SStefan Roese		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
313014f73ca6SStefan Roese		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
313114f73ca6SStefan Roese		be touched.

31526d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3153c609719bSwdenk		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3154c609719bSwdenk		make config files to be same as the text base address
315514d0a02aSWolfgang Denk		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
31566d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3157c609719bSwdenk
31586d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
31593b57fe0aSwdenk		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
31603b57fe0aSwdenk		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is

31676d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
316815940c9aSStefan Roese		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
316915940c9aSStefan Roese		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
31706d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
317115940c9aSStefan Roese		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3172c609719bSwdenk
31736d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3174c609719bSwdenk		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3175c609719bSwdenk		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
31767d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
31777d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
31787d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		enviroment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
31797d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3180c3624e6eSGrant Likely		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3181c3624e6eSGrant Likely		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3182c3624e6eSGrant Likely		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3183c3624e6eSGrant Likely		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3184c609719bSwdenk
3185fca43cc8SJohn Rigby- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3186fca43cc8SJohn Rigby		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the

3188fca43cc8SJohn Rigby		is enabled.
3189fca43cc8SJohn Rigby
3190fca43cc8SJohn Rigby- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3191fca43cc8SJohn Rigby		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3192fca43cc8SJohn Rigby		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3193fca43cc8SJohn Rigby
3194fca43cc8SJohn Rigby- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3195fca43cc8SJohn Rigby		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in

32166d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
32178564acf9Swdenk		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
32188564acf9Swdenk		instead of U-Boot software protection.
32198564acf9Swdenk
32206d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3221c609719bSwdenk
3222c609719bSwdenk		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3223c609719bSwdenk		without this option such a download has to be
3224c609719bSwdenk		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3225c609719bSwdenk		copy from RAM to flash.
3226c609719bSwdenk
3227c609719bSwdenk		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3228c609719bSwdenk		you can check if the download worked before you erase
322911ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
323011ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3231c609719bSwdenk		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3232c609719bSwdenk
32336d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3234c609719bSwdenk		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the

324191809ed5SPiotr Ziecik- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
324291809ed5SPiotr Ziecik		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
324391809ed5SPiotr Ziecik		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
324491809ed5SPiotr Ziecik		to the MTD layer.

32545568e613SStefan Roese		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
32555568e613SStefan Roese		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
32565568e613SStefan Roese		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
32575568e613SStefan Roese		optionally available.

3264352ef3f1SStefan Roese- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3265352ef3f1SStefan Roese		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3266352ef3f1SStefan Roese		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3267352ef3f1SStefan Roese		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3268352ef3f1SStefan Roese		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3269352ef3f1SStefan Roese		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3270352ef3f1SStefan Roese		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable

33335c1a7ea6SSimon Glass	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
33345c1a7ea6SSimon Glass	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
33355c1a7ea6SSimon Glass	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the

33375c1a7ea6SSimon Glass	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture

3353c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3354c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger
3355c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3356c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.

33585a1aceb0SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
3359c609719bSwdenk
3360c609719bSwdenk	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
3361c609719bSwdenk
3362c609719bSwdenk	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
3363c609719bSwdenk	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
3364c609719bSwdenk	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
3365c609719bSwdenk	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
3366c609719bSwdenk	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
3367c609719bSwdenk	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
3368c609719bSwdenk	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
3369c609719bSwdenk	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
3370c609719bSwdenk	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
3371c609719bSwdenk	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
3372c609719bSwdenk	   between U-Boot and the environment.
3373c609719bSwdenk
33740e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3375c609719bSwdenk
3376c609719bSwdenk	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
3377c609719bSwdenk	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
3378c609719bSwdenk	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
3379c609719bSwdenk	   for this sector is given here.
3380c609719bSwdenk
33816d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
3382c609719bSwdenk
33830e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3384c609719bSwdenk
3385c609719bSwdenk	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
3386c609719bSwdenk	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
33870e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
3388c609719bSwdenk
33890e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
3390c609719bSwdenk
3391c609719bSwdenk	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
3392c609719bSwdenk
3393c609719bSwdenk
3394c609719bSwdenk	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
3395c609719bSwdenk	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
3396c609719bSwdenk	   the environment.
3397c609719bSwdenk
33980e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3399c609719bSwdenk
34005a1aceb0SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
34010e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
3402c609719bSwdenk	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
3403c609719bSwdenk	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
3404c609719bSwdenk
3405c609719bSwdenk	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
3406c609719bSwdenk	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
3407c609719bSwdenk	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
3408c609719bSwdenk	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
3409c609719bSwdenk	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
3410c609719bSwdenk	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
3411c609719bSwdenk	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
3412c609719bSwdenk	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
3413c609719bSwdenk	   RAM, your target system will be dead.

3421c609719bSwdenk	   a "saveenv" operation.
3422c609719bSwdenk
3423c609719bSwdenkBE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the

3441c609719bSwdenk

3446c609719bSwdenk
3447c609719bSwdenkPlease note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the

36096d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
3610c609719bSwdenk
3611c609719bSwdenk	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
3612c609719bSwdenk	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
3613c609719bSwdenk	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
3614c609719bSwdenk	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
3615c609719bSwdenk	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
3616c609719bSwdenk	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
3617c609719bSwdenk	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
3618c609719bSwdenk
3619e881cb56SBruce AdlerPlease note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
3620c609719bSwdenkhas been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
3621cdb74977SWolfgang Denkcreated; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
3622c609719bSwdenkuntil then to read environment variables.
3623c609719bSwdenk
362485ec0bccSwdenkThe environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
362585ec0bccSwdenkis relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
362685ec0bccSwdenkwith the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
362785ec0bccSwdenknecessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
362885ec0bccSwdenk"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
362985ec0bccSwdenkhave any device yet where we could complain.]
3630c609719bSwdenk
3631c609719bSwdenkNote: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
3632c609719bSwdenkthe default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
363385ec0bccSwdenkuse the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.

3677e46fedfeSTimur Tabi
3678e46fedfeSTimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
3679e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
3680e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
3681e46fedfeSTimur Tabi
3682e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,

3684e46fedfeSTimur Tabi
3685e46fedfeSTimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
3686e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
3687e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
3688e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
3689e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
3690e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
3691e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
3692e46fedfeSTimur Tabi
3693e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH

3695e46fedfeSTimur Tabi
3696e46fedfeSTimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
3697e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
3698e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
3699e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3700e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3701e46fedfeSTimur Tabi
3702e46fedfeSTimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3703e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
3704e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3705e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3706e46fedfeSTimur Tabi
3707e46fedfeSTimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
3708e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be

39226e592385Swdenk		to the given FEC; i. e.
3923c26e454dSwdenk			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
3924c26e454dSwdenk		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
3925c26e454dSwdenk
3926c26e454dSwdenk		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
3927c26e454dSwdenk
3928c26e454dSwdenk- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
3929c26e454dSwdenk		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
3930c26e454dSwdenk		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
3931c26e454dSwdenk
3932c26e454dSwdenk- CONFIG_RMII
3933c26e454dSwdenk		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
3934c26e454dSwdenk		Note that this is a global option, we can't
3935c26e454dSwdenk		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
3936c26e454dSwdenk
39375cf91d6bSwdenk- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
39385cf91d6bSwdenk		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
39395cf91d6bSwdenk		The syntax is:
39405cf91d6bSwdenk
39415cf91d6bSwdenk		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
39425cf91d6bSwdenk

39445cf91d6bSwdenk		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
39455cf91d6bSwdenk		area should have.
39465cf91d6bSwdenk
394756523f12Swdenk- CONFIG_LOOPW
394856523f12Swdenk		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
3949602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
395056523f12Swdenk
39517b466641Sstroese- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
39527b466641Sstroese		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
39537b466641Sstroese		"md/mw" commands.
39547b466641Sstroese		Examples:
39557b466641Sstroese
39567b466641Sstroese		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
39577b466641Sstroese		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
39587b466641Sstroese
39597b466641Sstroese		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10

39617b466641Sstroese
39627b466641Sstroese		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
3963602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
39647b466641Sstroese
39658aa1a2d1Swdenk- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
3966afc1ce82SMacpaul Lin		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
3967e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
3968e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
3969e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		relocate itself into RAM.
39708aa1a2d1Swdenk
3971e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
3972e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
3973e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
3974e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		these initializations itself.
39758aa1a2d1Swdenk
3976401bb30bSAneesh V- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
3977df81238bSMagnus Lilja		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
3978df81238bSMagnus Lilja		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
3979df81238bSMagnus Lilja		compiling a NAND SPL.
3980400558b5Swdenk
39814213fc29SSimon Glass- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
39824213fc29SSimon Glass		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
39834213fc29SSimon Glass		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
39844213fc29SSimon Glass		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
39854213fc29SSimon Glass		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
39864213fc29SSimon Glass		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
39874213fc29SSimon Glass		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
39884213fc29SSimon Glass		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
39894213fc29SSimon Glass
3990d8834a13SMatthias Weisser- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
3991d8834a13SMatthias Weisser  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
3992d8834a13SMatthias Weisser		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
3993d8834a13SMatthias Weisser		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
3994d8834a13SMatthias Weisser		conditions but may increase the binary size.
3995d8834a13SMatthias Weisser
3996588a13f7SSimon Glass- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
3997588a13f7SSimon Glass		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
3998588a13f7SSimon Glass		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
3999b16f521aSGabe Black
4000fc33705eSMark Jackson- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4001fc33705eSMark Jackson		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).

4007f2717b47STimur Tabi
4008f2717b47STimur TabiThe Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4009f2717b47STimur Tabiloading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4010f2717b47STimur TabiThis firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4011f2717b47STimur Tabiare used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4012f2717b47STimur Tabiwithin that device.
4013f2717b47STimur Tabi
4014f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4015f2717b47STimur Tabi	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4016f2717b47STimur Tabi	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4017f2717b47STimur Tabi	is also specified.

4019f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4020f2717b47STimur Tabi	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4021f2717b47STimur Tabi	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4022f2717b47STimur Tabi	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4023f2717b47STimur Tabi	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4024f2717b47STimur Tabi
4025f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4026f2717b47STimur Tabi	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4027f2717b47STimur Tabi	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4028f2717b47STimur Tabi	virtual address in NOR flash.
4029f2717b47STimur Tabi
4030f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4031f2717b47STimur Tabi	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4032f2717b47STimur Tabi	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4033f2717b47STimur Tabi
4034f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4035f2717b47STimur Tabi	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4036f2717b47STimur Tabi	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4037f2717b47STimur Tabi
4038f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4039f2717b47STimur Tabi	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4040f2717b47STimur Tabi	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4041f2717b47STimur Tabi
4042292dc6c5SLiu Gang- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4043292dc6c5SLiu Gang	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4044292dc6c5SLiu Gang	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4045fc54c7faSLiu Gang	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4046fc54c7faSLiu Gang	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4047fc54c7faSLiu Gang	master's memory space.

4050c609719bSwdenk======================
4051c609719bSwdenk
4052218ca724SWolfgang DenkBuilding U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4053218ca724SWolfgang Denkand in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4054218ca724SWolfgang Denkall possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4055218ca724SWolfgang Denk(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4056218ca724SWolfgang Denkrecommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4057218ca724SWolfgang Denkwhich is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4058c609719bSwdenk
4059218ca724SWolfgang DenkIf you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4060218ca724SWolfgang Denkhave GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4061218ca724SWolfgang Denkyou must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4062218ca724SWolfgang DenkNote that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4063218ca724SWolfgang Denknecessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4064c609719bSwdenk
4065218ca724SWolfgang Denk	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4066218ca724SWolfgang Denk	$ export CROSS_COMPILE

40682f8d396bSPeter TyserNote: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
40692f8d396bSPeter Tyser      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
40702f8d396bSPeter Tyser      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
40712f8d396bSPeter Tyser      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
40722f8d396bSPeter Tyser
40732f8d396bSPeter Tyser       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools

4078c609719bSwdenkU-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4079c609719bSwdenksources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4080c609719bSwdenkis done by typing:

408654387ac9Swdenk
4087c609719bSwdenkNote: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4088c609719bSwdenk      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
40892729af9dSwdenk      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
40902729af9dSwdenk      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
409111ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4092c609719bSwdenk
40932729af9dSwdenk      make TQM823L_config
40942729af9dSwdenk	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4095c609719bSwdenk
4096c609719bSwdenk      make TQM823L_LCD_config
4097c609719bSwdenk	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD

4100c609719bSwdenk
4101c609719bSwdenk
4102c609719bSwdenkFinally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot

4109baf31249SMarian BalakowiczBy default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4110baf31249SMarian Balakowiczin the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4111baf31249SMarian Balakowiczthis behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4112baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
4113baf31249SMarian Balakowicz1. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4114baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
4115baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make O=/tmp/build distclean
4116baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
4117baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make O=/tmp/build all
4118baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
4119baf31249SMarian Balakowicz2. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:

4124baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make all
4125baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
4126baf31249SMarian BalakowiczNote that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment

4138c609719bSwdenk
4139c609719bSwdenk1.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
41404d675ae6SMichael Jones    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
41414d675ae6SMichael Jones    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
4142c609719bSwdenk2.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
414385ec0bccSwdenk    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
414485ec0bccSwdenk    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
414585ec0bccSwdenk3.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
414685ec0bccSwdenk    your board
4147c609719bSwdenk3.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
4148c609719bSwdenk    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
414985ec0bccSwdenk4.  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
4150c609719bSwdenk5.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
4151c609719bSwdenk    to be installed on your target system.
415285ec0bccSwdenk6.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
4153c609719bSwdenk    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
4154c609719bSwdenk
4155c609719bSwdenk
4156c609719bSwdenkTesting of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
4157c609719bSwdenk==============================================================
4158c609719bSwdenk
4159c609719bSwdenkIf you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
4160c609719bSwdenkor support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
4161c609719bSwdenkprovide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
4162c609719bSwdenkthe form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
4163218ca724SWolfgang Denkofficial or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
4164c609719bSwdenk
4165c609719bSwdenkBut before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
4166c609719bSwdenkcation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
4167c609719bSwdenkthe supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
4168c609719bSwdenkjust run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
4169c609719bSwdenkfor ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
41707152b1d0Swdenkselect which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
4171218ca724SWolfgang Denkenvironment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
4172218ca724SWolfgang Denkyou can type
4173c609719bSwdenk
4174c609719bSwdenk	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4175c609719bSwdenk
4176c609719bSwdenkor to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
4177c609719bSwdenk
4178c609719bSwdenk	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
4179c609719bSwdenk
4180218ca724SWolfgang DenkWhen using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
4181218ca724SWolfgang DenkU-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
4182218ca724SWolfgang Denksetting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
4183218ca724SWolfgang Denkbuilt, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
4184218ca724SWolfgang Denk<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
4185218ca724SWolfgang Denklocation can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
4186218ca724SWolfgang Denkvariable. For example:
4187baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
4188baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4189baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
4190baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4191baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
4192218ca724SWolfgang DenkWith the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
4193218ca724SWolfgang Denklog files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
4194218ca724SWolfgang Denkduring the whole build process.

4256c609719bSwdenk
4257c609719bSwdenkEnvironment Variables:
4258c609719bSwdenk======================
4259c609719bSwdenk
4260c609719bSwdenkU-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
4261c609719bSwdenkcan be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
4262c609719bSwdenk
4263c609719bSwdenkEnvironment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
4264c609719bSwdenk"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
4265c609719bSwdenkwithout a value can be used to delete a variable from the
4266c609719bSwdenkenvironment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
4267c609719bSwdenkworking with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
4268c609719bSwdenkenvironment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
4269c609719bSwdenk
4270c96f86eeSWolfgang DenkSome configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
4271c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk
4272c96f86eeSWolfgang DenkList of environment variables (most likely not complete):
4273c609719bSwdenk
4274c609719bSwdenk  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
4275c609719bSwdenk
4276c609719bSwdenk  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
4277c609719bSwdenk
4278c609719bSwdenk  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
4279c609719bSwdenk
4280c609719bSwdenk  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
4281c609719bSwdenk
4282c609719bSwdenk  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
4283c609719bSwdenk
42847d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
42857d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
42867d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
42877d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
42887d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
42897d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
4290c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
4291c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  bootm_mapsize.
4292c3624e6eSGrant Likely
4293c3624e6eSGrant Likely  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
4294c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
4295c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
4296c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
4297c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
4298c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
4299c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  used otherwise.
43007d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka
43017d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
43027d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
43037d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
43047d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
43057d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  environment variable.
43067d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka
43074bae9090SBartlomiej Sieka  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
43084bae9090SBartlomiej Sieka		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
43094bae9090SBartlomiej Sieka		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
43104bae9090SBartlomiej Sieka
4311c609719bSwdenk  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
4312c609719bSwdenk		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
4313c609719bSwdenk		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
4314c609719bSwdenk		  load any image using TFTP
4315c609719bSwdenk
4316c609719bSwdenk  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
4317c609719bSwdenk		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
4318c609719bSwdenk		  be automatically started (by internally calling
4319c609719bSwdenk		  "bootm")
4320c609719bSwdenk
43214a6fd34bSwdenk		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
43224a6fd34bSwdenk		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
43234a6fd34bSwdenk		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
43244a6fd34bSwdenk		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
43254a6fd34bSwdenk		  data.
43264a6fd34bSwdenk
4327a28afca5SDavid A. Long  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
4328a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
4329fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
4330fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
4331fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
4332fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
4333fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
4334fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
4335fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  access it during the boot procedure.
4336fa34f6b2SShawn Guo
4337a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
4338a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
4339a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
4340a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
4341a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
4342a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  must be accessible by the kernel.
4343a28afca5SDavid A. Long
4344eea63e05SSimon Glass  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
4345eea63e05SSimon Glass		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
4346eea63e05SSimon Glass		  defined.
4347eea63e05SSimon Glass
434817ea1177Swdenk  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
434917ea1177Swdenk		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
435017ea1177Swdenk		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
435117ea1177Swdenk		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
435217ea1177Swdenk		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
435317ea1177Swdenk
4354c609719bSwdenk  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
4355c609719bSwdenk		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4356c609719bSwdenk		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4357c609719bSwdenk		  is usually what you want since it allows for
4358c609719bSwdenk		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4359c609719bSwdenk		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
43606d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
4361c609719bSwdenk		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4362c609719bSwdenk		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4363c609719bSwdenk		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4364c609719bSwdenk		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
4365c609719bSwdenk
4366c609719bSwdenk		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
43677152b1d0Swdenk		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4368c609719bSwdenk		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4369c609719bSwdenk		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
43707152b1d0Swdenk		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4371c609719bSwdenk		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4372c609719bSwdenk
4373c609719bSwdenk		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4374c609719bSwdenk
437538b99261Swdenk		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
437638b99261Swdenk		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
437738b99261Swdenk		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
437838b99261Swdenk		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
437938b99261Swdenk		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
438038b99261Swdenk		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
438138b99261Swdenk		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
438238b99261Swdenk

4387c609719bSwdenk
4388c609719bSwdenk  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4389c609719bSwdenk
4390c609719bSwdenk  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4391c609719bSwdenk

4397c609719bSwdenk
4398e2a53458SMike Frysinger  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4399a3d991bdSwdenk
4400e2a53458SMike Frysinger  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4401e2a53458SMike Frysinger		  For example you can do the following
4402a3d991bdSwdenk
440348690d80SHeiko Schocher		  => setenv ethact FEC
440448690d80SHeiko Schocher		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
440548690d80SHeiko Schocher		  => setenv ethact SCC
440648690d80SHeiko Schocher		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4407a3d991bdSwdenk
4408e1692577SMatthias Fuchs  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4409e1692577SMatthias Fuchs		  available network interfaces.
4410e1692577SMatthias Fuchs		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4411e1692577SMatthias Fuchs
4412a3d991bdSwdenk  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4413a3d991bdSwdenk		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
44146e592385Swdenk		  When set to "once" the network operation will
44156e592385Swdenk		  fail when all the available network interfaces
44166e592385Swdenk		  are tried once without success.
4417a3d991bdSwdenk		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4418a3d991bdSwdenk		  themselves.
4419a3d991bdSwdenk

4423ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		  UDP source port.
4424ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk
442528cb9375SWolfgang Denk  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
442628cb9375SWolfgang Denk		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
442728cb9375SWolfgang Denk
4428c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4429c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4430c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk
4431c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-

4462c609719bSwdenkThe following environment variables may be used and automatically
4463c609719bSwdenkupdated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
4464c609719bSwdenkdepending the information provided by your boot server:
4465c609719bSwdenk
4466c609719bSwdenk  bootfile	- see above
4467c609719bSwdenk  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
4468fe389a82Sstroese  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
4469c609719bSwdenk  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
4470c609719bSwdenk  hostname	- Target hostname
4471c609719bSwdenk  ipaddr	- see above
4472c609719bSwdenk  netmask	- Subnet Mask
4473c609719bSwdenk  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
4474c609719bSwdenk  serverip	- see above
4475c609719bSwdenk
4476c609719bSwdenk
4477c609719bSwdenkThere are two special Environment Variables:
4478c609719bSwdenk
4479c609719bSwdenk  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
4480c609719bSwdenk		  as type string and/or serial number
4481c609719bSwdenk  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
4482c609719bSwdenk
4483c609719bSwdenkThese variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4484c609719bSwdenkthe board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4485c609719bSwdenkonce they have been set once.
4486c609719bSwdenk
4487c609719bSwdenk
4488c1551ea8SstroeseFurther special Environment Variables:
4489c1551ea8Sstroese
4490c1551ea8Sstroese  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4491c1551ea8Sstroese		  with the "version" command. This variable is
4492c1551ea8Sstroese		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).

4499170ab110SJoe HershbergerCallback functions for environment variables:
4500170ab110SJoe Hershberger---------------------------------------------
4501170ab110SJoe Hershberger
4502170ab110SJoe HershbergerFor some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
4503170ab110SJoe Hershbergerwhen their values are changed.  This functionailty allows functions to
4504170ab110SJoe Hershbergerbe associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
4505170ab110SJoe Hershbergerdeletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
4506170ab110SJoe Hershbergereffect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
4507170ab110SJoe Hershberger
4508170ab110SJoe HershbergerThe callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
4509170ab110SJoe HershbergerU_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
4510170ab110SJoe Hershberger
4511170ab110SJoe HershbergerThese callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
4512170ab110SJoe Hershbergerstatic list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
4513170ab110SJoe Hershbergerin the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
4514170ab110SJoe Hershbergerassociations.  The list must be in the following format:
4515170ab110SJoe Hershberger
4516170ab110SJoe Hershberger	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
4517170ab110SJoe Hershberger	list = entry[,list]
4518170ab110SJoe Hershberger
4519170ab110SJoe HershbergerIf the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
4520170ab110SJoe HershbergerSpaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
4521170ab110SJoe Hershberger
4522170ab110SJoe HershbergerCallbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
4523170ab110SJoe Hershbergerwith the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
4524170ab110SJoe Hershbergeroverride any association in the static list. You can define
4525170ab110SJoe HershbergerCONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
4526170ab110SJoe Hershberger".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.

4530f07771ccSwdenk=====================
4531f07771ccSwdenk
4532f07771ccSwdenkThere are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
45337152b1d0Swdenkthe old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
4534f07771ccSwdenk
4535f07771ccSwdenkOld, simple command line parser:
4536f07771ccSwdenk--------------------------------
4537f07771ccSwdenk
4538f07771ccSwdenk- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
4539f07771ccSwdenk- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
4540fe126d8bSWolfgang Denk- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
4541f07771ccSwdenk- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
4542f07771ccSwdenk  for example:
4543fe126d8bSWolfgang Denk	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
4544f07771ccSwdenk- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
4545f07771ccSwdenk	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
4546f07771ccSwdenk
4547f07771ccSwdenkHush shell:
4548f07771ccSwdenk-----------
4549f07771ccSwdenk
4550f07771ccSwdenk- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4551f07771ccSwdenk  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4552f07771ccSwdenk  until...do...done, ...
4553f07771ccSwdenk- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4554f07771ccSwdenk  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4555f07771ccSwdenk  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4556f07771ccSwdenk  command
4557f07771ccSwdenk
4558f07771ccSwdenkGeneral rules:
4559f07771ccSwdenk--------------
4560f07771ccSwdenk
4561f07771ccSwdenk(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4562f07771ccSwdenk    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4563f07771ccSwdenk    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4564f07771ccSwdenk    executed anyway.
4565f07771ccSwdenk
4566f07771ccSwdenk(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
456711ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
4568f07771ccSwdenk    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4569f07771ccSwdenk    variables are not executed.

4571c609719bSwdenkNote for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4572c609719bSwdenk=======================================
4573c609719bSwdenk
457411ccc33fSMarcel ZiswilerSome boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
4575c609719bSwdenksuch configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
45767152b1d0Swdenk"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
4577c609719bSwdenk
4578c609719bSwdenkNetwork interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4579c609719bSwdenkMAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4580c609719bSwdenk"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
4581c609719bSwdenk
4582c609719bSwdenkIf the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4583c609719bSwdenkin SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4584c609719bSwdenkding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4585c609719bSwdenkvariable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
4586c609719bSwdenk
4587c609719bSwdenko If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4588c609719bSwdenk  environment, the SROM's address is used.
4589c609719bSwdenk
4590c609719bSwdenko If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4591c609719bSwdenk  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4592c609719bSwdenk  used.
4593c609719bSwdenk
4594c609719bSwdenko If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4595c609719bSwdenk  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
4596c609719bSwdenk
4597c609719bSwdenko If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4598c609719bSwdenk  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4599c609719bSwdenk  warning is printed.
4600c609719bSwdenk
4601c609719bSwdenko If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4602c609719bSwdenk  is raised.
4603c609719bSwdenk
4604ecee9324SBen WarrenIf Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
4605ecee9324SBen Warrenwill be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
4606ecee9324SBen Warrenmay be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4607ecee9324SBen WarrenThe naming convention is as follows:
4608ecee9324SBen Warren"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.

46293310c549SMarian Balakowiczpreceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for

4650c609719bSwdenk
4651c609719bSwdenkLinux Support:
4652c609719bSwdenk==============
4653c609719bSwdenk
4654c609719bSwdenkAlthough U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
46557152b1d0Swdenkeasily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4656c609719bSwdenkU-Boot.
4657c609719bSwdenk
4658c609719bSwdenkU-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4659c609719bSwdenkspecial "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4660c609719bSwdenk"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4661c609719bSwdenkinstead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
46627152b1d0Swdenkserves several purposes:
4663c609719bSwdenk
4664c609719bSwdenk- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4665c609719bSwdenk  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4666c609719bSwdenk  Flash memory footprint)
4667c609719bSwdenk
4668c609719bSwdenk- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
46697152b1d0Swdenk  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
4670c609719bSwdenk
4671c609719bSwdenk- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4672c609719bSwdenk  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4673c609719bSwdenk  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4674c609719bSwdenk  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4675c609719bSwdenk  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4676c609719bSwdenk  software is easier now.

4678c609719bSwdenk
4679c609719bSwdenkLinux HOWTO:
4680c609719bSwdenk============
4681c609719bSwdenk
4682c609719bSwdenkPorting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4683c609719bSwdenk---------------------------------------
4684c609719bSwdenk
4685c609719bSwdenkU-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4686c609719bSwdenkconfigure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4687c609719bSwdenk(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4688c609719bSwdenkLinux :-).
4689c609719bSwdenk
4690a47a12beSStefan RoeseBut now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
4691c609719bSwdenk
4692c609719bSwdenkJust make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
4693c609719bSwdenkinclude/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
46941dc30693SMarkus HeidelbergInformation structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
46951dc30693SMarkus Heidelbergand make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
46966d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARDas your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
4697c609719bSwdenk
4698c609719bSwdenk
4699c609719bSwdenkConfiguring the Linux kernel:
4700c609719bSwdenk-----------------------------
4701c609719bSwdenk
4702c609719bSwdenkNo specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
4703c609719bSwdenkdevice (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
4704c609719bSwdenk
4705c609719bSwdenk
4706c609719bSwdenkBuilding a Linux Image:
4707c609719bSwdenk-----------------------
4708c609719bSwdenk
470924ee89b9SwdenkWith U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
471024ee89b9Swdenknot used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
471124ee89b9Swdenk"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
471224ee89b9SwdenkU-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
471324ee89b9Swdenkwhich was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
471424ee89b9Swdenk100% compatible format.
4715c609719bSwdenk
4716c609719bSwdenkExample:
4717c609719bSwdenk
4718c609719bSwdenk	make TQM850L_config
4719c609719bSwdenk	make oldconfig
4720c609719bSwdenk	make dep
472124ee89b9Swdenk	make uImage
4722c609719bSwdenk
472324ee89b9SwdenkThe "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
472424ee89b9Swdenkencapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
472524ee89b9SwdenkCRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
4726c609719bSwdenk
472724ee89b9Swdenk* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
472824ee89b9Swdenk
472924ee89b9Swdenk* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
473024ee89b9Swdenk
473124ee89b9Swdenk	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
473224ee89b9Swdenk				 -R .note -R .comment \
473324ee89b9Swdenk				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
473424ee89b9Swdenk
473524ee89b9Swdenk* compress the binary image:
473624ee89b9Swdenk
473724ee89b9Swdenk	gzip -9 linux.bin
473824ee89b9Swdenk
473924ee89b9Swdenk* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
474024ee89b9Swdenk
474124ee89b9Swdenk	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
474224ee89b9Swdenk		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
474324ee89b9Swdenk		-d linux.bin.gz uImage

474624ee89b9SwdenkThe "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
474724ee89b9Swdenkwith U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
474824ee89b9Swdenkcombined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
474924ee89b9Swdenkbyte header containing information about target architecture,
475024ee89b9Swdenkoperating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
475124ee89b9Swdenkstamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
475224ee89b9Swdenk
475324ee89b9Swdenk"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
475424ee89b9Swdenkprint the header information, or to build new images.
4755c609719bSwdenk
4756c609719bSwdenkIn the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
4757c609719bSwdenkcontained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
4758c609719bSwdenkchecksum verification:
4759c609719bSwdenk
4760c609719bSwdenk	tools/mkimage -l image
4761c609719bSwdenk	  -l ==> list image header information
4762c609719bSwdenk
4763c609719bSwdenkThe second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
4764c609719bSwdenkfrom a "data file" which is used as image payload:
4765c609719bSwdenk
4766c609719bSwdenk	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
4767c609719bSwdenk		      -n name -d data_file image
4768c609719bSwdenk	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
4769c609719bSwdenk	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
4770c609719bSwdenk	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4771c609719bSwdenk	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
4772c609719bSwdenk	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
4773c609719bSwdenk	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
4774c609719bSwdenk	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
4775c609719bSwdenk	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
4776c609719bSwdenk
477769459791SwdenkRight now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
477869459791Swdenkaddress (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
477969459791Swdenkkernel version:
4780c609719bSwdenk
4781c609719bSwdenk- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
478224ee89b9Swdenk- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
4783c609719bSwdenk
4784c609719bSwdenkSo a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
4785c609719bSwdenk
478624ee89b9Swdenk	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \

4839c609719bSwdenkInstalling a Linux Image:
4840c609719bSwdenk-------------------------
4841c609719bSwdenk
4842c609719bSwdenkTo downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
4843c609719bSwdenkyou must convert the image to S-Record format:
4844c609719bSwdenk
4845c609719bSwdenk	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
4846c609719bSwdenk
4847c609719bSwdenkThe 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
4848c609719bSwdenkimage header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
4849c609719bSwdenkaddress 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
4850c609719bSwdenkspecify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
4851c609719bSwdenkcommand.
4852c609719bSwdenk
4853c609719bSwdenkExample: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
4854c609719bSwdenkTQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
4855c609719bSwdenk
4856c609719bSwdenk	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF

4890c609719bSwdenkThe "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
4891c609719bSwdenkmemory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
4892c609719bSwdenkof the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
4893c609719bSwdenkparameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
4894c609719bSwdenk"printenv" and "setenv" commands:

50196069ff26SwdenkMore About U-Boot Image Types:
50206069ff26Swdenk------------------------------
50216069ff26Swdenk
50226069ff26SwdenkU-Boot supports the following image types:
50236069ff26Swdenk
50246069ff26Swdenk   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
50256069ff26Swdenk	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
50266069ff26Swdenk	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
50276069ff26Swdenk	the Standalone Program.
50286069ff26Swdenk   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
50296069ff26Swdenk	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
50306069ff26Swdenk	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
50316069ff26Swdenk	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
50326069ff26Swdenk	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
50336069ff26Swdenk   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
50346069ff26Swdenk	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
50356069ff26Swdenk	being started.
50366069ff26Swdenk   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
50376069ff26Swdenk	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
50386069ff26Swdenk	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
50396069ff26Swdenk	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
50406069ff26Swdenk	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
50416069ff26Swdenk	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
50426069ff26Swdenk
50436069ff26Swdenk	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
50446069ff26Swdenk	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
50456069ff26Swdenk	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
50466069ff26Swdenk	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
50476069ff26Swdenk	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
50486069ff26Swdenk	a multiple of 4 bytes).
50496069ff26Swdenk
50506069ff26Swdenk   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
50516069ff26Swdenk	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
50526069ff26Swdenk	flash memory.
50536069ff26Swdenk
50546069ff26Swdenk   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
50556069ff26Swdenk	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
50566069ff26Swdenk	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
50576069ff26Swdenk	as command interpreter.

506144f074c7SMarek Vasut
506244f074c7SMarek VasutOn some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
506344f074c7SMarek Vasutusing the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
506444f074c7SMarek Vasutas the syntax of "bootm" command.

5066*8ac28563STom RiniNote, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5067017e1f3fSMarek Vasutkernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5068017e1f3fSMarek Vasutaddress of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5069017e1f3fSMarek Vasutformat: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".

5072c609719bSwdenkStandalone HOWTO:
5073c609719bSwdenk=================
5074c609719bSwdenk
5075c609719bSwdenkOne of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5076c609719bSwdenkrun "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5077c609719bSwdenkU-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5078c609719bSwdenk
5079c609719bSwdenkTwo simple examples are included with the sources:
5080c609719bSwdenk
5081c609719bSwdenk"Hello World" Demo:
5082c609719bSwdenk-------------------
5083c609719bSwdenk
5084c609719bSwdenk'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5085c609719bSwdenkapplication; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5086c609719bSwdenkIt's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5087c609719bSwdenklike that:

5112c609719bSwdenk
5113c609719bSwdenkAnother example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
5114c609719bSwdenkhandler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
5115c609719bSwdenkHere, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
5116c609719bSwdenkThe interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
5117c609719bSwdenkcharacter, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
5118c609719bSwdenkcontrolled by the following keys:
5119c609719bSwdenk
5120c609719bSwdenk	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
5121c609719bSwdenk	b - enable interrupts and start timer
5122c609719bSwdenk	e - stop timer and disable interrupts

5181c609719bSwdenkNetBSD Notes:
5182c609719bSwdenk=============
5183c609719bSwdenk
5184c609719bSwdenkStarting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
5185c609719bSwdenk(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
5186c609719bSwdenk
5187c609719bSwdenkBuilding requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
5188c609719bSwdenkNetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
5189c609719bSwdenkneed gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
5190c609719bSwdenkNote that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
5191c609719bSwdenkattempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
5192c609719bSwdenkmissing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
5193c609719bSwdenk
5194c609719bSwdenk	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
5195c609719bSwdenk	# mkdir powerpc
5196c609719bSwdenk	# ln -s powerpc machine
5197c609719bSwdenk	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
5198c609719bSwdenk	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
5199c609719bSwdenk
5200c609719bSwdenkNative builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
5201c609719bSwdenkand U-Boot include files.
5202c609719bSwdenk
5203c609719bSwdenkBooting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
5204c609719bSwdenkstage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
5205c609719bSwdenkproper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
5206c609719bSwdenktree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
52072a8af187Swdenkmeantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz

5210c609719bSwdenkImplementation Internals:
5211c609719bSwdenk=========================
5212c609719bSwdenk
5213c609719bSwdenkThe following is not intended to be a complete description of every
5214c609719bSwdenkimplementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
5215c609719bSwdenkinner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
5216c609719bSwdenkhardware.
5217c609719bSwdenk
5218c609719bSwdenk
5219c609719bSwdenkInitial Stack, Global Data:
5220c609719bSwdenk---------------------------
5221c609719bSwdenk
5222c609719bSwdenkThe implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
5223c609719bSwdenkstarts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
5224c609719bSwdenksystem RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
5225c609719bSwdenkThis means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
5226c609719bSwdenkis not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
5227c609719bSwdenkat all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
5228c609719bSwdenkoptions for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
5229c609719bSwdenkmodels provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
5230c609719bSwdenkMPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
5231c609719bSwdenklocked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
5232c609719bSwdenk
52337152b1d0Swdenk	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
52340668236bSWolfgang Denk	U-Boot mailing list:

523943d9616cSwdenk	...
524043d9616cSwdenk
524143d9616cSwdenk	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
524243d9616cSwdenk	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
524343d9616cSwdenk	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
524443d9616cSwdenk	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
524543d9616cSwdenk	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
524611ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
524743d9616cSwdenk	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
524843d9616cSwdenk	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
524943d9616cSwdenk
525043d9616cSwdenk	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
525143d9616cSwdenk	is another option for the system designer to use as an
525211ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
525343d9616cSwdenk	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
525443d9616cSwdenk	board designers haven't used it for something that would
525543d9616cSwdenk	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
525643d9616cSwdenk	used.
525743d9616cSwdenk
52586d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
525943d9616cSwdenk	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
526043d9616cSwdenk	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
52618a316c9bSStefan Roese	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
526243d9616cSwdenk	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
526343d9616cSwdenk	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
526443d9616cSwdenk	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
526543d9616cSwdenk	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
526643d9616cSwdenk	you get the config right.

527043d9616cSwdenk
5271c609719bSwdenkIt is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
5272c609719bSwdenkcode for the initialization procedures:
5273c609719bSwdenk
5274c609719bSwdenk* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
5275c609719bSwdenk  to write it.
5276c609719bSwdenk
527711ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
5278c609719bSwdenk  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
52797152b1d0Swdenk  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
5280c609719bSwdenk
5281c609719bSwdenk* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
5282c609719bSwdenk  that.
5283c609719bSwdenk
5284c609719bSwdenkHaving only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
5285c609719bSwdenknormal global data to share information beween the code. But it
5286c609719bSwdenkturned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
5287c609719bSwdenksimplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
5288c609719bSwdenkfunctions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
5289c609719bSwdenkfunctions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
5290c609719bSwdenkthe GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
5291c609719bSwdenkplace a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
5292c609719bSwdenkreserve for this purpose.
5293c609719bSwdenk
52947152b1d0SwdenkWhen choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
5295c609719bSwdenkrelevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
5296c609719bSwdenkGCC's implementation.
5297c609719bSwdenk
5298c609719bSwdenkFor PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
5299c609719bSwdenk	R1:	stack pointer
5300e7670f6cSWolfgang Denk	R2:	reserved for system use
5301c609719bSwdenk	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
5302c609719bSwdenk	R5-R10: parameter passing
5303c609719bSwdenk	R13:	small data area pointer
5304c609719bSwdenk	R30:	GOT pointer

5312c609719bSwdenk
5313c609719bSwdenk    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
5314c609719bSwdenk    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
5315c609719bSwdenk    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
5316c609719bSwdenk    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
5317c609719bSwdenk    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,

5364c609719bSwdenkMemory Management:
5365c609719bSwdenk------------------
5366c609719bSwdenk
5367c609719bSwdenkU-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5368c609719bSwdenkMMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5369c609719bSwdenk
5370c609719bSwdenkThe available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5371c609719bSwdenkcontroller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5372c609719bSwdenkmemory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5373c609719bSwdenkphysical memory banks.
5374c609719bSwdenk
5375c609719bSwdenkU-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5376c609719bSwdenkTQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5377c609719bSwdenkbooting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5378c609719bSwdenkto the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
53796d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARDmemory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5380c609719bSwdenkconfiguration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5381c609719bSwdenkInfo data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5382c609719bSwdenk
5383c609719bSwdenkAdditionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5384c609719bSwdenkof DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5385c609719bSwdenk
5386c609719bSwdenkSo a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5387c609719bSwdenkthis:
5388c609719bSwdenk
5389c609719bSwdenk	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5390c609719bSwdenk	      :
5391c609719bSwdenk	0x0000 1FFF
5392c609719bSwdenk	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5393c609719bSwdenk	      :
5394c609719bSwdenk	      :
5395c609719bSwdenk
5396c609719bSwdenk	      :
5397c609719bSwdenk	      :
5398c609719bSwdenk	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5399c609719bSwdenk	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5400c609719bSwdenk	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5401c609719bSwdenk	      :
5402c609719bSwdenk	0x00FD FFFF
5403c609719bSwdenk	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5404c609719bSwdenk	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5405c609719bSwdenk	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5406c609719bSwdenk	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5407c609719bSwdenk
5408c609719bSwdenk
5409c609719bSwdenkSystem Initialization:
5410c609719bSwdenk----------------------
5411c609719bSwdenk
5412c609719bSwdenkIn the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
541311ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5414c609719bSwdenkconfiguration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
54157152b1d0SwdenkTo be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5416c609719bSwdenkTo be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5417c609719bSwdenkinitial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5418c609719bSwdenkwhich provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
5419c609719bSwdenkpart of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
5420c609719bSwdenkthe caches and the SIU.
5421c609719bSwdenk
5422c609719bSwdenkNext, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5423c609719bSwdenkpreliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5424c609719bSwdenk(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5425c609719bSwdenkon 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5426c609719bSwdenkprogrammed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5427c609719bSwdenksimple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5428c609719bSwdenkbanks.
5429c609719bSwdenk
5430c609719bSwdenkWhen there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
54317152b1d0Swdenkdifferent size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5432c609719bSwdenkbank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
5433c609719bSwdenk0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5434c609719bSwdenkcontiguous memory starting from 0.
5435c609719bSwdenk
5436c609719bSwdenkThen, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5437c609719bSwdenkand allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5438c609719bSwdenkInfo data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5439c609719bSwdenkpages, and the final stack is set up.
5440c609719bSwdenk
5441c609719bSwdenkOnly after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5442c609719bSwdenkuntil that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5443c609719bSwdenkrunning from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5444c609719bSwdenknew address in RAM.

5573c609719bSwdenk
5574c609719bSwdenk* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add this
55757ca9296eSWolfgang Denk  board to the MAINTAINERS file, too.
5576c609719bSwdenk
5577c609719bSwdenk* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5578c609719bSwdenk  document these in the README file.
5579c609719bSwdenk
5580218ca724SWolfgang Denk* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5581218ca724SWolfgang Denk  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
55827ca9296eSWolfgang Denk  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
5583218ca724SWolfgang Denk  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5584218ca724SWolfgang Denk  with some other mail clients.
5585c609719bSwdenk
5586218ca724SWolfgang Denk  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5587218ca724SWolfgang Denk  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5588218ca724SWolfgang Denk  GNU diff.
55896dff5529Swdenk
5590218ca724SWolfgang Denk  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5591218ca724SWolfgang Denk  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5592218ca724SWolfgang Denk  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
5593218ca724SWolfgang Denk  affected files).
5594218ca724SWolfgang Denk
5595218ca724SWolfgang Denk  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5596218ca724SWolfgang Denk  and compressed attachments must not be used.
5597c609719bSwdenk
559852f52c14Swdenk* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
559952f52c14Swdenk  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
560052f52c14Swdenk
560152f52c14Swdenk* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
560252f52c14Swdenk  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.

5605c609719bSwdenkNotes:
5606c609719bSwdenk
5607c609719bSwdenk* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
5608c609719bSwdenk  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5609c609719bSwdenk  for any of the boards.
5610c609719bSwdenk
5611c609719bSwdenk* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5612c609719bSwdenk  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5613c609719bSwdenk  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
5614c609719bSwdenk
5615c609719bSwdenk* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5616c609719bSwdenk  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5617c609719bSwdenk  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5618c609719bSwdenk  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5619c609719bSwdenk  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5620c609719bSwdenk  modification.
