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.

239c609719bSwdenkSoftware Configuration:
240c609719bSwdenk=======================
241c609719bSwdenk
242c609719bSwdenkConfiguration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
243c609719bSwdenkrationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
244c609719bSwdenk
245c609719bSwdenkThere are two classes of configuration variables:
246c609719bSwdenk
247c609719bSwdenk* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
248c609719bSwdenk  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
249c609719bSwdenk  "CONFIG_".
250c609719bSwdenk
251c609719bSwdenk* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
252c609719bSwdenk  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
253c609719bSwdenk  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
2546d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD  "CONFIG_SYS_".
255c609719bSwdenk
256c609719bSwdenkLater we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
257c609719bSwdenkidentical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
258c609719bSwdenkdo the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
259c609719bSwdenklinks and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
260c609719bSwdenkas an example here.
261c609719bSwdenk
262c609719bSwdenk
263c609719bSwdenkSelection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
264c609719bSwdenk---------------------------------------------------
265c609719bSwdenk
266c609719bSwdenkFor all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
267c609719bSwdenkconfigurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
268c609719bSwdenk
269c609719bSwdenkExample: For a TQM823L module type:
270c609719bSwdenk
271c609719bSwdenk	cd u-boot
272c609719bSwdenk	make TQM823L_config
273c609719bSwdenk
27411ccc33fSMarcel ZiswilerFor the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
275c609719bSwdenke.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
276c609719bSwdenkdirectory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
277c609719bSwdenk
278c609719bSwdenk
279c609719bSwdenkConfiguration Options:
280c609719bSwdenk----------------------
281c609719bSwdenk
282c609719bSwdenkConfiguration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
283c609719bSwdenksuch information is kept in a configuration file
284c609719bSwdenk"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
285c609719bSwdenk
286c609719bSwdenkExample: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
287c609719bSwdenk"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
288c609719bSwdenk
289c609719bSwdenk
2907f6c2cbcSwdenkMany of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
2917f6c2cbcSwdenkkernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
2927f6c2cbcSwdenkbuild a config tool - later.
2937f6c2cbcSwdenk
2947f6c2cbcSwdenk
295c609719bSwdenkThe following options need to be configured:
296c609719bSwdenk
2972628114eSKim Phillips- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
298c609719bSwdenk
2992628114eSKim Phillips- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
3006ccec449SWolfgang Denk
3016ccec449SWolfgang Denk- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
30209ea0de0SHaavard Skinnemoen		Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
303c609719bSwdenk
304c609719bSwdenk- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
305c609719bSwdenk		Define exactly one of
306c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
307c609719bSwdenk--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
308c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
309c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50

4885da627a4Swdenk- Linux Kernel Interface:
489c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
490c609719bSwdenk
491c609719bSwdenk		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
492c609719bSwdenk		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
493c609719bSwdenk		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the

495c609719bSwdenk		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
496c609719bSwdenk		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
497c609719bSwdenk		Linux kernel.
498c609719bSwdenk		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
499c609719bSwdenk		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the

5413887c3fbSHeiko Schocher		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
5423887c3fbSHeiko Schocher		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
5433887c3fbSHeiko Schocher		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
5443887c3fbSHeiko Schocher		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and

620c609719bSwdenk- Console Interface:
621c609719bSwdenk		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
622c609719bSwdenk		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
623c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
624c609719bSwdenk		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
625c609719bSwdenk
626c609719bSwdenk		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
627c609719bSwdenk		port routines must be defined elsewhere

66933a35bbbSPali Rohár		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
67033a35bbbSPali Rohár		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
67133a35bbbSPali Rohár		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
67233a35bbbSPali Rohár
673c609719bSwdenk		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
674c609719bSwdenk		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
675c609719bSwdenk		environment 'console=serial'.
676c609719bSwdenk
677a3ad8e26Swdenk		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
678a3ad8e26Swdenk		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
679a3ad8e26Swdenk		the "silent" environment variable. See
680a3ad8e26Swdenk		doc/README.silent for more information.

688c92fac91SHeiko Schocher- Console Rx buffer length
689c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
690c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
6912b3f12c2SHeiko Schocher		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
692c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
693c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
694c92fac91SHeiko Schocher		the SMC.
695c92fac91SHeiko Schocher
6969558b48aSGraeme Russ- Pre-Console Buffer:
6979558b48aSGraeme Russ		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
6989558b48aSGraeme Russ		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
6999558b48aSGraeme Russ		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
7009558b48aSGraeme Russ		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
7019558b48aSGraeme Russ		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
7029558b48aSGraeme Russ		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
7039558b48aSGraeme Russ		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
7049558b48aSGraeme Russ		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
7059558b48aSGraeme Russ		earlier bytes are discarded.
7069558b48aSGraeme Russ
7079558b48aSGraeme Russ		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
7089558b48aSGraeme Russ		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
7099558b48aSGraeme Russ
710046a37bdSSonny Rao- Safe printf() functions
711046a37bdSSonny Rao		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
712046a37bdSSonny Rao		the printf() functions. These are defined in
713046a37bdSSonny Rao		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
714046a37bdSSonny Rao		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
715046a37bdSSonny Rao		If this option is not given then these functions will
716046a37bdSSonny Rao		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
717046a37bdSSonny Rao		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
718046a37bdSSonny Rao
719c609719bSwdenk- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
720c609719bSwdenk		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
721c609719bSwdenk		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
72293d7212fSJoe Hershberger		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
72393d7212fSJoe Hershberger		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
724c609719bSwdenk
725c609719bSwdenk		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
726c609719bSwdenk		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
727c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
728c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
729c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED

737c609719bSwdenk
738c609719bSwdenk- Autoboot Command:
739c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
740c609719bSwdenk		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
741c609719bSwdenk		define a command string that is automatically executed
742c609719bSwdenk		when no character is read on the console interface
743c609719bSwdenk		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
744c609719bSwdenk
745c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
746c609719bSwdenk		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
747c609719bSwdenk		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
748c609719bSwdenk		environment value "bootargs".
749c609719bSwdenk
750c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
751c609719bSwdenk		The value of these goes into the environment as
752c609719bSwdenk		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
753c609719bSwdenk		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
75411ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		RAM and NFS.
755c609719bSwdenk
756c609719bSwdenk- Pre-Boot Commands:
757c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_PREBOOT
758c609719bSwdenk
759c609719bSwdenk		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
760c609719bSwdenk		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
761c609719bSwdenk		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
762c609719bSwdenk		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
763c609719bSwdenk		entering interactive mode.
764c609719bSwdenk
765c609719bSwdenk		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
766c609719bSwdenk		automatically generated or modified. For an example
767c609719bSwdenk		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
768c609719bSwdenk		modified when the user holds down a certain
769c609719bSwdenk		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
770c609719bSwdenk		booting the systems
771c609719bSwdenk
772c609719bSwdenk- Serial Download Echo Mode:
773c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
774c609719bSwdenk		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
775c609719bSwdenk		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
776c609719bSwdenk		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
777c609719bSwdenk		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
778c609719bSwdenk		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
779c609719bSwdenk		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
780c609719bSwdenk
781602ad3b3SJon Loeliger- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)

783c609719bSwdenk		Select one of the baudrates listed in
7846d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
785c609719bSwdenk
786c609719bSwdenk- Monitor Functions:

788602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		from the build by using the #include files
789c6c621bdSStephen Warren		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
790c6c621bdSStephen Warren		commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
791602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		and augmenting with additional #define's

917bbb0b128SSimon Glass		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
918bbb0b128SSimon Glass		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
919bbb0b128SSimon Glass		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
920bbb0b128SSimon Glass		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
921bbb0b128SSimon Glass		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
922bbb0b128SSimon Glass		the global data structure as gd->blob.
92345ba8077SSimon Glass
9242c0f79e4SSimon Glass		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
9252c0f79e4SSimon Glass		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
9262c0f79e4SSimon Glass		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
9272c0f79e4SSimon Glass		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
9282c0f79e4SSimon Glass
9292c0f79e4SSimon Glass			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
9302c0f79e4SSimon Glass
9312c0f79e4SSimon Glass		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
9322c0f79e4SSimon Glass		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
9332c0f79e4SSimon Glass		still use the individual files if you need something more
9342c0f79e4SSimon Glass		exotic.
9352c0f79e4SSimon Glass

9416abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
9426abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
9436abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		available, then no further board specific code should
9446abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		be needed to use it.
9456abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel
9466abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
9476abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
9486abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
9496abe6fb6SDetlev Zundel		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.

121516c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
121616c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
121711ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
121816c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
121916c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
122016c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
122116c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
122216c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
122316c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		a Linux host by
122416c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
122516c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
122616c8d5e7SWolfgang Denk		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following

1284d70a560fSIgor Grinberg		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1285d70a560fSIgor Grinberg		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1286d70a560fSIgor Grinberg		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1287d70a560fSIgor Grinberg		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1288d70a560fSIgor Grinberg		viewport is supported.
1289d70a560fSIgor Grinberg		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1290d70a560fSIgor Grinberg		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
12916d365ea0SLucas Stach		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
12926d365ea0SLucas Stach		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
12936d365ea0SLucas Stach		the appropriate value in Hz.

1531c29fdfc1Swdenk- Compression support:
1532c29fdfc1Swdenk		CONFIG_BZIP2
1533c29fdfc1Swdenk
1534c29fdfc1Swdenk		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1535c29fdfc1Swdenk		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1536c29fdfc1Swdenk		compressed images are supported.
1537c29fdfc1Swdenk
1538c29fdfc1Swdenk		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
15396d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1540c29fdfc1Swdenk		be at least 4MB.

1542fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		CONFIG_LZMA
1543fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1544fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1545fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		images is included.
1546fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1547fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1548fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1549fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		formula:
1550fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1551fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1552fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1553fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1554fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		and Literal pos bits.
1555fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1556fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1557fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1558fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1559fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		a very small buffer.
1560fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini
1561fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1562fc9c1727SLuigi 'Comio' Mantellini		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
15636d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).

164153a5c424SDavid Updegraff		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
164253a5c424SDavid Updegraff
164353a5c424SDavid Updegraff		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
164453a5c424SDavid Updegraff		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
164511ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet

1649c609719bSwdenk- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1650c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1651c609719bSwdenk
1652c609719bSwdenk		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1653c609719bSwdenk		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1654c609719bSwdenk		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1655c609719bSwdenk		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1656c609719bSwdenk		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1657c609719bSwdenk		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1658c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1659c609719bSwdenk		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
16606c33c785SWolfgang Denk		following delays are inserted then:
1661c609719bSwdenk
1662c609719bSwdenk		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
1663c609719bSwdenk		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
1664c609719bSwdenk		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
1665c609719bSwdenk		4th and following
1666c609719bSwdenk		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec

1668fe389a82Sstroese- DHCP Advanced Options:
16691fe80d79SJon Loeliger		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
16701fe80d79SJon Loeliger		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1671fe389a82Sstroese
16721fe80d79SJon Loeliger		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
16731fe80d79SJon Loeliger		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY

16842c00e099SJoe Hershberger		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1685fe389a82Sstroese
16865d110f0aSWilson Callan		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
16875d110f0aSWilson Callan		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1688fe389a82Sstroese
16892c00e099SJoe Hershberger		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
16902c00e099SJoe Hershberger		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
16912c00e099SJoe Hershberger		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
16922c00e099SJoe Hershberger		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
16932c00e099SJoe Hershberger		is not available.
16942c00e099SJoe Hershberger
1695fe389a82Sstroese		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1696fe389a82Sstroese		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1697fe389a82Sstroese		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1698fe389a82Sstroese		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1699fe389a82Sstroese		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
1700fe389a82Sstroese		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
1701fe389a82Sstroese		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
17021fe80d79SJon Loeliger		is defined.
1703fe389a82Sstroese
1704fe389a82Sstroese		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1705fe389a82Sstroese		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1706fe389a82Sstroese		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
17075d110f0aSWilson Callan		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
17081fe80d79SJon Loeliger		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
17091fe80d79SJon Loeliger		option 12 to the DHCP server.
1710fe389a82Sstroese
1711d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1712d9a2f416SAras Vaichas
1713d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1714d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1715d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1716d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1717d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1718d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1719d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1720d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1721d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1722d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1723d9a2f416SAras Vaichas		this delay.
1724d9a2f416SAras Vaichas
1725d22c338eSJoe Hershberger - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1726d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1727d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1728d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1729d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1730d22c338eSJoe Hershberger
1731d22c338eSJoe Hershberger		See doc/README.link-local for more information.

1743a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1744a3d991bdSwdenk
1745a3d991bdSwdenk		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1746a3d991bdSwdenk		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
174711ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
1748a3d991bdSwdenk
1749a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
1750a3d991bdSwdenk
1751a3d991bdSwdenk		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
1752a3d991bdSwdenk		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
1753a3d991bdSwdenk
1754a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION

1765a3d991bdSwdenk
1766a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
1767a3d991bdSwdenk
1768a3d991bdSwdenk		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
1769a3d991bdSwdenk		device in .1 of milliwatts.
1770a3d991bdSwdenk
1771a3d991bdSwdenk		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
1772a3d991bdSwdenk
1773a3d991bdSwdenk		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
1774a3d991bdSwdenk
1775c609719bSwdenk- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
1776c609719bSwdenk
1777c609719bSwdenk		Several configurations allow to display the current
1778c609719bSwdenk		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
1779c609719bSwdenk		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
1780c609719bSwdenk		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
1781c609719bSwdenk		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
1782c609719bSwdenk		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
1783c609719bSwdenk		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
1784c609719bSwdenk		feature in U-Boot.
1785c609719bSwdenk
1786c609719bSwdenk- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
1787c609719bSwdenk
1788c609719bSwdenk		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
1789c609719bSwdenk		on those systems that support this (optional)
1790c609719bSwdenk		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
1791c609719bSwdenk
1792c609719bSwdenk- I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C
1793c609719bSwdenk
1794b37c7e5eSwdenk		These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of
1795b37c7e5eSwdenk		(but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will
179611ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected CPU.
1797c609719bSwdenk
1798b37c7e5eSwdenk		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
1799602ad3b3SJon Loeliger		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
1800b37c7e5eSwdenk		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
1801b37c7e5eSwdenk		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
1802c609719bSwdenk		command line interface.
1803c609719bSwdenk
1804bb99ad6dSBen Warren		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
1805c609719bSwdenk
1806b37c7e5eSwdenk		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka
1807b37c7e5eSwdenk		bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware
1808b37c7e5eSwdenk		support for I2C.
1809c609719bSwdenk
1810b37c7e5eSwdenk		There are several other quantities that must also be
1811b37c7e5eSwdenk		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C.
1812c609719bSwdenk
18136d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
1814b37c7e5eSwdenk		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
18156d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
181611ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		the CPU's i2c node address).

18188d321b81SPeter Tyser		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
1819a47a12beSStefan Roese		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
18208d321b81SPeter Tyser		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
18218d321b81SPeter Tyser		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
18228d321b81SPeter Tyser		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
1823b37c7e5eSwdenk
18245da71efaSEric Millbrandt		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
18255da71efaSEric Millbrandt
18265da71efaSEric Millbrandt		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
18275da71efaSEric Millbrandt		chips might think that the current transfer is still
18285da71efaSEric Millbrandt		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
18295da71efaSEric Millbrandt		commands until the slave device responds.
18305da71efaSEric Millbrandt
1831b37c7e5eSwdenk		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
1832b37c7e5eSwdenk
1833b37c7e5eSwdenk		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C)
1834b37c7e5eSwdenk		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
1835b37c7e5eSwdenk		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
1836c609719bSwdenk
1837c609719bSwdenk		I2C_INIT
1838c609719bSwdenk
1839b37c7e5eSwdenk		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
1840c609719bSwdenk		controller or configure ports.
1841c609719bSwdenk
1842b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
1843b37c7e5eSwdenk
1844c609719bSwdenk		I2C_PORT
1845c609719bSwdenk
1846c609719bSwdenk		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
1847c609719bSwdenk		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
1848c609719bSwdenk		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
1849c609719bSwdenk
1850c609719bSwdenk		I2C_ACTIVE
1851c609719bSwdenk
1852c609719bSwdenk		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
1853c609719bSwdenk		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
1854c609719bSwdenk		define can be null.
1855c609719bSwdenk
1856b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
1857b37c7e5eSwdenk
1858c609719bSwdenk		I2C_TRISTATE
1859c609719bSwdenk
1860c609719bSwdenk		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
1861c609719bSwdenk		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
1862c609719bSwdenk		define can be null.
1863c609719bSwdenk
1864b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
1865b37c7e5eSwdenk
1866c609719bSwdenk		I2C_READ
1867c609719bSwdenk
1868c609719bSwdenk		Code that returns TRUE if the I2C data line is high,
1869c609719bSwdenk		FALSE if it is low.
1870c609719bSwdenk
1871b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
1872b37c7e5eSwdenk
1873c609719bSwdenk		I2C_SDA(bit)
1874c609719bSwdenk
1875c609719bSwdenk		If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C data line high. If it
1876c609719bSwdenk		is FALSE, it clears it (low).
1877c609719bSwdenk
1878b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
1879b37c7e5eSwdenk			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
1880b37c7e5eSwdenk			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
1881b37c7e5eSwdenk
1882c609719bSwdenk		I2C_SCL(bit)
1883c609719bSwdenk
1884c609719bSwdenk		If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
1885c609719bSwdenk		is FALSE, it clears it (low).
1886c609719bSwdenk
1887b37c7e5eSwdenk		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
1888b37c7e5eSwdenk			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
1889b37c7e5eSwdenk			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
1890b37c7e5eSwdenk
1891c609719bSwdenk		I2C_DELAY
1892c609719bSwdenk
1893c609719bSwdenk		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
1894c609719bSwdenk		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
1895b37c7e5eSwdenk		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
1896b37c7e5eSwdenk		like:
1897b37c7e5eSwdenk
1898b37c7e5eSwdenk		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
1899c609719bSwdenk
1900793b5726SMike Frysinger		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
1901793b5726SMike Frysinger
1902793b5726SMike Frysinger		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
1903793b5726SMike Frysinger		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
1904793b5726SMike Frysinger		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
1905793b5726SMike Frysinger		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
1906793b5726SMike Frysinger
1907793b5726SMike Frysinger		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
1908793b5726SMike Frysinger		the generic GPIO functions.
1909793b5726SMike Frysinger
19106d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
191147cd00faSwdenk
191247cd00faSwdenk		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
191347cd00faSwdenk		chips might think that the current transfer is still
191447cd00faSwdenk		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
191547cd00faSwdenk		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
191647cd00faSwdenk		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
191747cd00faSwdenk		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
191847cd00faSwdenk		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
191947cd00faSwdenk		is run early in the boot sequence.
192047cd00faSwdenk
192126a33504SRichard Retanubun		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
192226a33504SRichard Retanubun
192326a33504SRichard Retanubun		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
192426a33504SRichard Retanubun		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
192526a33504SRichard Retanubun		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
192626a33504SRichard Retanubun		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
192726a33504SRichard Retanubun		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
192826a33504SRichard Retanubun		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
192926a33504SRichard Retanubun		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
193026a33504SRichard Retanubun		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
193126a33504SRichard Retanubun
193217ea1177Swdenk		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
193317ea1177Swdenk
193417ea1177Swdenk		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
193517ea1177Swdenk		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
193617ea1177Swdenk		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
193717ea1177Swdenk
1938bb99ad6dSBen Warren		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
1939bb99ad6dSBen Warren
1940bb99ad6dSBen Warren		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
1941bb99ad6dSBen Warren		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
1942bb99ad6dSBen Warren		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
1943bb99ad6dSBen Warren		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
1944bb99ad6dSBen Warren
19456d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
1946bb99ad6dSBen Warren
1947bb99ad6dSBen Warren		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
19480f89c54bSPeter Tyser		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
19490f89c54bSPeter Tyser		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
19500f89c54bSPeter Tyser		a 1D array of device addresses
1951bb99ad6dSBen Warren
1952bb99ad6dSBen Warren		e.g.
1953bb99ad6dSBen Warren			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
19546d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
1955bb99ad6dSBen Warren
1956bb99ad6dSBen Warren		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
1957bb99ad6dSBen Warren
1958bb99ad6dSBen Warren			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
19596d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
1960bb99ad6dSBen Warren
1961bb99ad6dSBen Warren		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
1962bb99ad6dSBen Warren
19636d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
1964be5e6181STimur Tabi
1965be5e6181STimur Tabi		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
1966be5e6181STimur Tabi		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
1967be5e6181STimur Tabi
19686d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
19690dc018ecSStefan Roese
19700dc018ecSStefan Roese		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
19710dc018ecSStefan Roese		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
19720dc018ecSStefan Roese
19736d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
19740dc018ecSStefan Roese
19750dc018ecSStefan Roese		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
19760dc018ecSStefan Roese		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
19770dc018ecSStefan Roese
19786d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
19799ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo
19809ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
19819ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
19829ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo		specified DTT device.
19839ebbb54fSVictor Gallardo
1984be5e6181STimur Tabi		CONFIG_FSL_I2C
1985be5e6181STimur Tabi
1986be5e6181STimur Tabi		Define this option if you want to use Freescale's I2C driver in
19877817cb20SMarcel Ziswiler		drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c.
1988be5e6181STimur Tabi
198967b23a32SHeiko Schocher		CONFIG_I2C_MUX
199067b23a32SHeiko Schocher
199167b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Define this option if you have I2C devices reached over 1 .. n
199267b23a32SHeiko Schocher		I2C Muxes like the pca9544a. This option addes a new I2C
199367b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Command "i2c bus [muxtype:muxaddr:muxchannel]" which adds a
199467b23a32SHeiko Schocher		new I2C Bus to the existing I2C Busses. If you select the
199567b23a32SHeiko Schocher		new Bus with "i2c dev", u-bbot sends first the commandos for
199667b23a32SHeiko Schocher		the muxes to activate this new "bus".
199767b23a32SHeiko Schocher
199867b23a32SHeiko Schocher		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS must be also defined, to use this
199967b23a32SHeiko Schocher		feature!
200067b23a32SHeiko Schocher
200167b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Example:
200267b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Adding a new I2C Bus reached over 2 pca9544a muxes
200367b23a32SHeiko Schocher			The First mux with address 70 and channel 6
200467b23a32SHeiko Schocher			The Second mux with address 71 and channel 4
200567b23a32SHeiko Schocher
200667b23a32SHeiko Schocher		=> i2c bus pca9544a:70:6:pca9544a:71:4
200767b23a32SHeiko Schocher
200867b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Use the "i2c bus" command without parameter, to get a list
200967b23a32SHeiko Schocher		of I2C Busses with muxes:
201067b23a32SHeiko Schocher
201167b23a32SHeiko Schocher		=> i2c bus
201267b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Busses reached over muxes:
201367b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Bus ID: 2
201467b23a32SHeiko Schocher		  reached over Mux(es):
201567b23a32SHeiko Schocher		    pca9544a@70 ch: 4
201667b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Bus ID: 3
201767b23a32SHeiko Schocher		  reached over Mux(es):
201867b23a32SHeiko Schocher		    pca9544a@70 ch: 6
201967b23a32SHeiko Schocher		    pca9544a@71 ch: 4
202067b23a32SHeiko Schocher		=>
202167b23a32SHeiko Schocher
202267b23a32SHeiko Schocher		If you now switch to the new I2C Bus 3 with "i2c dev 3"
2023f9a78b8dSMichael Jones		u-boot first sends the command to the mux@70 to enable
2024f9a78b8dSMichael Jones		channel 6, and then the command to the mux@71 to enable
202567b23a32SHeiko Schocher		the channel 4.
202667b23a32SHeiko Schocher
202767b23a32SHeiko Schocher		After that, you can use the "normal" i2c commands as
2028f9a78b8dSMichael Jones		usual to communicate with your I2C devices behind
202967b23a32SHeiko Schocher		the 2 muxes.
203067b23a32SHeiko Schocher
203167b23a32SHeiko Schocher		This option is actually implemented for the bitbanging
203267b23a32SHeiko Schocher		algorithm in common/soft_i2c.c and for the Hardware I2C
203367b23a32SHeiko Schocher		Bus on the MPC8260. But it should be not so difficult
203467b23a32SHeiko Schocher		to add this option to other architectures.
203567b23a32SHeiko Schocher
20362ac6985aSAndrew Dyer		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
20372ac6985aSAndrew Dyer
20382ac6985aSAndrew Dyer		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
20392ac6985aSAndrew Dyer		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
20402ac6985aSAndrew Dyer		between writing the address pointer and reading the
20412ac6985aSAndrew Dyer		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
20422ac6985aSAndrew Dyer		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
20432ac6985aSAndrew Dyer		devices can use either method, but some require one or
20442ac6985aSAndrew Dyer		the other.

2065c609719bSwdenk		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2066c609719bSwdenk		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2067c609719bSwdenk		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2068c609719bSwdenk		defined, the board configuration must define several

2113c609719bSwdenk
2114c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2115c609719bSwdenk
2116c609719bSwdenk		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2117c609719bSwdenk		configuration driver.
2118c609719bSwdenk
21196d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2120c609719bSwdenk		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2121c609719bSwdenk
21226d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2123c609719bSwdenk
2124c609719bSwdenk		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2125c609719bSwdenk		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2126c609719bSwdenk		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2127c609719bSwdenk		indicated a CRC error).
2128c609719bSwdenk
21296d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2130c609719bSwdenk
2131c609719bSwdenk		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2132c609719bSwdenk		after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2133c609719bSwdenk		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
213411ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		ms.
2135c609719bSwdenk
21366d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2137c609719bSwdenk
2138c609719bSwdenk		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
213911ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2140c609719bSwdenk
21416d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2142c609719bSwdenk
2143c609719bSwdenk		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
214411ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		200 ms.
2145c609719bSwdenk
2146c609719bSwdenk- Configuration Management:
2147c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2148c609719bSwdenk
2149c609719bSwdenk		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2150c609719bSwdenk		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2151c609719bSwdenk
2152c609719bSwdenk- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2153c609719bSwdenk
2154c609719bSwdenk		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2155c609719bSwdenk		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
21567152b1d0Swdenk		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2157c609719bSwdenk		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2158c609719bSwdenk		protects these variables from casual modification by
2159c609719bSwdenk		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2160c609719bSwdenk		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
216111ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		change this behaviour:
2162c609719bSwdenk
2163c609719bSwdenk		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2164c609719bSwdenk		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
216547cd00faSwdenk		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2166c609719bSwdenk		these parameters.
2167c609719bSwdenk
2168c609719bSwdenk		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2169c609719bSwdenk		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
217011ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2171c609719bSwdenk		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2172c609719bSwdenk		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2173c609719bSwdenk		read-only.]
2174c609719bSwdenk
2175c609719bSwdenk- Protected RAM:
2176c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_PRAM
2177c609719bSwdenk
2178c609719bSwdenk		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2179c609719bSwdenk		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2180c609719bSwdenk		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2181c609719bSwdenk		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2182c609719bSwdenk		this default value by defining an environment
2183c609719bSwdenk		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2184c609719bSwdenk		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2185c609719bSwdenk		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2186c609719bSwdenk		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2187c609719bSwdenk		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2188c609719bSwdenk		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2189c609719bSwdenk		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2190c609719bSwdenk
2191fe126d8bSWolfgang Denk			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2192c609719bSwdenk			saveenv
2193c609719bSwdenk
2194c609719bSwdenk		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2195c609719bSwdenk		either, which results in a memory region that will
2196c609719bSwdenk		not be affected by reboots.
2197c609719bSwdenk
2198c609719bSwdenk		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2199c609719bSwdenk		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2200c609719bSwdenk		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2201c609719bSwdenk		following board configurations are known to be
2202c609719bSwdenk		"pRAM-clean":
2203c609719bSwdenk
22041b0757ecSWolfgang Denk			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
22051b0757ecSWolfgang Denk			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2206544d97e9SWolfgang Denk			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2207c609719bSwdenk
2208c609719bSwdenk- Error Recovery:
2209c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2210c609719bSwdenk
2211c609719bSwdenk		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2212c609719bSwdenk		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2213c609719bSwdenk		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
221411ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		system where you want the system to reboot
2215c609719bSwdenk		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2216c609719bSwdenk		useful during development since you can try to debug
2217c609719bSwdenk		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2218c609719bSwdenk
2219c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2220c609719bSwdenk
2221c609719bSwdenk		This variable defines the number of retries for
2222c609719bSwdenk		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2223c609719bSwdenk		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2224c609719bSwdenk		default value of 5 is used.
2225c609719bSwdenk
222640cb90eeSGuennadi Liakhovetski		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
222740cb90eeSGuennadi Liakhovetski
222840cb90eeSGuennadi Liakhovetski		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
222940cb90eeSGuennadi Liakhovetski
223048a3e999STetsuyuki Kobayashi		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
223148a3e999STetsuyuki Kobayashi
223248a3e999STetsuyuki Kobayashi		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
223348a3e999STetsuyuki Kobayashi		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
223448a3e999STetsuyuki Kobayashi		try longer timeout such as
223548a3e999STetsuyuki Kobayashi		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
223648a3e999STetsuyuki Kobayashi
2237c609719bSwdenk- Command Interpreter:
22388078f1a5SWolfgang Denk		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
223904a85b3bSwdenk
224004a85b3bSwdenk		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
224104a85b3bSwdenk
22428078f1a5SWolfgang Denk		Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
22438078f1a5SWolfgang Denk		for the "hush" shell.
22448078f1a5SWolfgang Denk
22458078f1a5SWolfgang Denk
22466d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2247c609719bSwdenk
2248c609719bSwdenk		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2249c609719bSwdenk		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2250c609719bSwdenk		powerful command line syntax like
2251c609719bSwdenk		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2252c609719bSwdenk		constructs ("shell scripts").
2253c609719bSwdenk
2254c609719bSwdenk		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2255c609719bSwdenk		with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2256c609719bSwdenk
2257c609719bSwdenk
22586d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2259c609719bSwdenk
2260c609719bSwdenk		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2261c609719bSwdenk		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2262c609719bSwdenk		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2263c609719bSwdenk
2264c609719bSwdenk	Note:
2265c609719bSwdenk
2266c609719bSwdenk		In the current implementation, the local variables
2267c609719bSwdenk		space and global environment variables space are
2268c609719bSwdenk		separated. Local variables are those you define by
22693b57fe0aSwdenk		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2270c609719bSwdenk		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
22713b57fe0aSwdenk		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
22723b57fe0aSwdenk		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2273c609719bSwdenk
2274c609719bSwdenk		Global environment variables are those you use
2275c609719bSwdenk		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2276c609719bSwdenk		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2277c609719bSwdenk		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2278c609719bSwdenk
2279c609719bSwdenk		To store commands and special characters in a
2280c609719bSwdenk		variable, please use double quotation marks
2281c609719bSwdenk		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2282c609719bSwdenk		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2283c609719bSwdenk		symbols.
2284c609719bSwdenk
2285aa0c71acSWolfgang Denk- Commandline Editing and History:
2286aa0c71acSWolfgang Denk		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2287aa0c71acSWolfgang Denk
228811ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2289aa0c71acSWolfgang Denk		commandline input operations
2290aa0c71acSWolfgang Denk
2291a8c7c708Swdenk- Default Environment:
2292c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2293c609719bSwdenk
2294c609719bSwdenk		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2295c609719bSwdenk		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
22967152b1d0Swdenk		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
22972262cfeeSwdenk
2298c609719bSwdenk		For example, place something like this in your
2299c609719bSwdenk		board's config file:
2300c609719bSwdenk
2301c609719bSwdenk		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2302c609719bSwdenk			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2303c609719bSwdenk			"myvar2=value2\0"
2304c609719bSwdenk
2305c609719bSwdenk		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2306c609719bSwdenk		internal format how the environment is stored by the
23072262cfeeSwdenk		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2308c609719bSwdenk		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
23097152b1d0Swdenk		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2310c609719bSwdenk		You better know what you are doing here.
2311c609719bSwdenk
2312c609719bSwdenk		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2313c609719bSwdenk		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
231474de7aefSWolfgang Denk		the environment like the "source" command or the
2315c609719bSwdenk		boot command first.
2316c609719bSwdenk
23175e724ca2SStephen Warren		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
23185e724ca2SStephen Warren
23195e724ca2SStephen Warren		Define this in order to add variables describing the
23205e724ca2SStephen Warren		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
23215e724ca2SStephen Warren		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
23225e724ca2SStephen Warren
23235e724ca2SStephen Warren		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
23245e724ca2SStephen Warren
23255e724ca2SStephen Warren		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
23265e724ca2SStephen Warren		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU

23285e724ca2SStephen Warren		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
23295e724ca2SStephen Warren		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
23305e724ca2SStephen Warren
23317e27f89fSTom Rini		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
23327e27f89fSTom Rini
23337e27f89fSTom Rini		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
23347e27f89fSTom Rini		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
23357e27f89fSTom Rini		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
23367e27f89fSTom Rini
2337a8c7c708Swdenk- DataFlash Support:
23382abbe075Swdenk		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
23392abbe075Swdenk
23402abbe075Swdenk		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
23412abbe075Swdenk		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
23422abbe075Swdenk		commands cp, md...
23432abbe075Swdenk
2344f61ec45eSEric Nelson- Serial Flash support
2345f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2346f61ec45eSEric Nelson
2347f61ec45eSEric Nelson		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2348f61ec45eSEric Nelson		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2349f61ec45eSEric Nelson
2350f61ec45eSEric Nelson		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2351f61ec45eSEric Nelson		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2352f61ec45eSEric Nelson		commands.
2353f61ec45eSEric Nelson
2354f61ec45eSEric Nelson		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2355f61ec45eSEric Nelson		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2356f61ec45eSEric Nelson		flash is present on the system.
2357f61ec45eSEric Nelson
2358f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2359f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2360f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2361f61ec45eSEric Nelson		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2362f61ec45eSEric Nelson
23633f85ce27Swdenk- SystemACE Support:
23643f85ce27Swdenk		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
23653f85ce27Swdenk
23663f85ce27Swdenk		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
23673f85ce27Swdenk		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
236811ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		of the chip must also be defined in the
23696d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
23703f85ce27Swdenk
23713f85ce27Swdenk		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
23726d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
23733f85ce27Swdenk
23743f85ce27Swdenk		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
23753f85ce27Swdenk		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
23763f85ce27Swdenk
2377ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2378ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2379ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk
238028cb9375SWolfgang Denk		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2381ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
238228cb9375SWolfgang Denk		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2383ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		number generator is used.
2384ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk
238528cb9375SWolfgang Denk		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
238628cb9375SWolfgang Denk		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
238728cb9375SWolfgang Denk		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
238828cb9375SWolfgang Denk
238928cb9375SWolfgang Denk		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2390ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2391ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2392ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2393ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2394ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2395ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2396ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk
2397a8c7c708Swdenk- Show boot progress:
2398c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2399c609719bSwdenk
2400c609719bSwdenk		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2401c609719bSwdenk		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2402c609719bSwdenk		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2403c609719bSwdenk		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2404c609719bSwdenk		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2405c609719bSwdenk		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2406c609719bSwdenk
24073a608ca0SSimon Glass- Detailed boot stage timing
24083a608ca0SSimon Glass		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
24093a608ca0SSimon Glass		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
24103a608ca0SSimon Glass		of the boot process.
24113a608ca0SSimon Glass
24123a608ca0SSimon Glass		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
24133a608ca0SSimon Glass		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
24143a608ca0SSimon Glass		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
24153a608ca0SSimon Glass		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
24163a608ca0SSimon Glass		the limit, recording will stop.
24173a608ca0SSimon Glass
24183a608ca0SSimon Glass		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
24193a608ca0SSimon Glass		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
24203a608ca0SSimon Glass
24213a608ca0SSimon Glass		Timer summary in microseconds:
24223a608ca0SSimon Glass		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
24233a608ca0SSimon Glass			  0          0  reset

24332eba38cfSSimon Glass		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
24342eba38cfSSimon Glass		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
24352eba38cfSSimon Glass
243694fd1316SSimon Glass		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
243794fd1316SSimon Glass		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
243894fd1316SSimon Glass		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
243994fd1316SSimon Glass		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
244094fd1316SSimon Glass		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
244194fd1316SSimon Glass		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
244294fd1316SSimon Glass		For example:
244394fd1316SSimon Glass
244494fd1316SSimon Glass		bootstage {
244594fd1316SSimon Glass			154 {
244694fd1316SSimon Glass				name = "board_init_f";
244794fd1316SSimon Glass				mark = <3575678>;
244894fd1316SSimon Glass			};
244994fd1316SSimon Glass			170 {
245094fd1316SSimon Glass				name = "lcd";
245194fd1316SSimon Glass				accum = <33482>;
245294fd1316SSimon Glass			};
245394fd1316SSimon Glass		};
245494fd1316SSimon Glass
245594fd1316SSimon Glass		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

2805c609719bSwdenk- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
2806c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_HWFLOW
2807c609719bSwdenk
2808c609719bSwdenk- Modem debug support:
2809c609719bSwdenk		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
2810c609719bSwdenk
2811c609719bSwdenk		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
2812c609719bSwdenk		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
2813c609719bSwdenk
2814a8c7c708Swdenk- Interrupt support (PPC):
2815a8c7c708Swdenk
2816a8c7c708Swdenk		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
2817a8c7c708Swdenk		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
281811ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
2819a8c7c708Swdenk		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
282011ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
2821a8c7c708Swdenk		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
282211ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
2823a8c7c708Swdenk		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
2824a8c7c708Swdenk		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
2825a8c7c708Swdenk		general timer_interrupt().
2826a8c7c708Swdenk
2827c609719bSwdenk- General:
2828c609719bSwdenk
2829c609719bSwdenk		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
2830c609719bSwdenk		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
2831c609719bSwdenk		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
283211ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
2833c609719bSwdenk		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
2834c609719bSwdenk		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
2835c609719bSwdenk		initialization.
2836c609719bSwdenk
2837c609719bSwdenk		If there are no modem init strings in the
2838c609719bSwdenk		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
2839c609719bSwdenk		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
284011ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler		suppressed, though.

28459660e442SHelmut Raiger------------------------------
28469660e442SHelmut Raiger
28479660e442SHelmut RaigerDuring Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
28489660e442SHelmut Raigerto allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
28499660e442SHelmut Raigerbefore drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
28509660e442SHelmut Raigerfollowing configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
28519660e442SHelmut Raigerarchitecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
28529660e442SHelmut Raigertypically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().

291514f73ca6SStefan Roese		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
291614f73ca6SStefan Roese		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
29175e12e75dSStefan Roese		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
291814f73ca6SStefan Roese		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
29195e12e75dSStefan Roese		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
292014f73ca6SStefan Roese
292114f73ca6SStefan Roese		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
292214f73ca6SStefan Roese		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
292314f73ca6SStefan Roese		be touched.

29626d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
296315940c9aSStefan Roese		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
296415940c9aSStefan Roese		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
29656d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
296615940c9aSStefan Roese		to adjust this setting to your needs.

3021c609719bSwdenk

3075c609719bSwdenkThe following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3076c609719bSwdenkof environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3077c609719bSwdenkfollowing configurations:
3078c609719bSwdenk
3079c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3080c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger
3081c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3082c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3083c3eb3fe4SMike Frysinger
30845a1aceb0SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
3085c609719bSwdenk
3086c609719bSwdenk	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
3087c609719bSwdenk
3088c609719bSwdenk	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
3089c609719bSwdenk	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
3090c609719bSwdenk	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
3091c609719bSwdenk	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
3092c609719bSwdenk	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
3093c609719bSwdenk	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
3094c609719bSwdenk	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
3095c609719bSwdenk	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
3096c609719bSwdenk	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
3097c609719bSwdenk	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
3098c609719bSwdenk	   between U-Boot and the environment.
3099c609719bSwdenk
31000e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3101c609719bSwdenk
3102c609719bSwdenk	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
3103c609719bSwdenk	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
3104c609719bSwdenk	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
3105c609719bSwdenk	   for this sector is given here.
3106c609719bSwdenk
31076d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
3108c609719bSwdenk
31090e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3110c609719bSwdenk
3111c609719bSwdenk	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
3112c609719bSwdenk	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
31130e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
3114c609719bSwdenk
31150e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
3116c609719bSwdenk
3117c609719bSwdenk	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
3118c609719bSwdenk
3119c609719bSwdenk
3120c609719bSwdenk	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
3121c609719bSwdenk	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
3122c609719bSwdenk	   the environment.
3123c609719bSwdenk
31240e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3125c609719bSwdenk
31265a1aceb0SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
31270e8d1586SJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
3128c609719bSwdenk	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
3129c609719bSwdenk	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
3130c609719bSwdenk
3131c609719bSwdenk	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
3132c609719bSwdenk	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
3133c609719bSwdenk	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
3134c609719bSwdenk	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
3135c609719bSwdenk	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
3136c609719bSwdenk	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
3137c609719bSwdenk	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
3138c609719bSwdenk	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
3139c609719bSwdenk	   RAM, your target system will be dead.

31463e38691eSwdenk	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
3147c609719bSwdenk	   a "saveenv" operation.
3148c609719bSwdenk
3149c609719bSwdenkBE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the

316311ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
3164c609719bSwdenk	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
3165c609719bSwdenk	  can just be read and written to, without any special
3166c609719bSwdenk	  provision.
3167c609719bSwdenk
3168c609719bSwdenkBE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3169c609719bSwdenkin U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the

3171c609719bSwdenkU-Boot will hang.
3172c609719bSwdenk
3173c609719bSwdenkPlease note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3174c609719bSwdenkenvironment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to

3309c609719bSwdenk
3310c609719bSwdenk	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
3311c609719bSwdenk	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
3312c609719bSwdenk	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
3313c609719bSwdenk	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
3314c609719bSwdenk	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
3315c609719bSwdenk	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
3316c609719bSwdenk	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
3317c609719bSwdenk
3318e881cb56SBruce AdlerPlease note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
3319c609719bSwdenkhas been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
3320cdb74977SWolfgang Denkcreated; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
3321c609719bSwdenkuntil then to read environment variables.
3322c609719bSwdenk
332385ec0bccSwdenkThe environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
332485ec0bccSwdenkis relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
332585ec0bccSwdenkwith the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
332685ec0bccSwdenknecessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
332785ec0bccSwdenk"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
332885ec0bccSwdenkhave any device yet where we could complain.]
3329c609719bSwdenk
3330c609719bSwdenkNote: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
3331c609719bSwdenkthe default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
333285ec0bccSwdenkuse the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.

3379e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
3380e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:

3390e46fedfeSTimur Tabi
3391e46fedfeSTimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3392e46fedfeSTimur Tabi		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is

36497b466641Sstroese
36508aa1a2d1Swdenk- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
3651afc1ce82SMacpaul Lin		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
3652e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
3653e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
3654e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		relocate itself into RAM.
36558aa1a2d1Swdenk
3656e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
3657e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
3658e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
3659e03f3169SWolfgang Denk		these initializations itself.
36608aa1a2d1Swdenk
3661401bb30bSAneesh V- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
3662df81238bSMagnus Lilja		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader

3667d8834a13SMatthias Weisser  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
3668d8834a13SMatthias Weisser		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
3669d8834a13SMatthias Weisser		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
3670d8834a13SMatthias Weisser		conditions but may increase the binary size.
3671d8834a13SMatthias Weisser
3672b16f521aSGabe Black- CONFIG_X86_NO_RESET_VECTOR
3673b16f521aSGabe Black		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is excluded. You will need

3675b16f521aSGabe Black
36765b5ece9eSGabe Black- CONFIG_X86_NO_REAL_MODE
36775b5ece9eSGabe Black		If defined, x86 real mode code is omitted. This assumes a
36785b5ece9eSGabe Black		32-bit environment where such code is not needed. You will
36795b5ece9eSGabe Black		need to do this when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.

3682f2717b47STimur TabiFreescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
3683f2717b47STimur Tabi-----------------------------------
3684f2717b47STimur Tabi
3685f2717b47STimur TabiThe Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
3686f2717b47STimur Tabiloading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
3687f2717b47STimur TabiThis firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
3688f2717b47STimur Tabiare used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
3689f2717b47STimur Tabiwithin that device.
3690f2717b47STimur Tabi
3691f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
3692f2717b47STimur Tabi	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
3693f2717b47STimur Tabi	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
3694f2717b47STimur Tabi	is also specified.
3695f2717b47STimur Tabi
3696f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
3697f2717b47STimur Tabi	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
3698f2717b47STimur Tabi	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
3699f2717b47STimur Tabi	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
3700f2717b47STimur Tabi	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
3701f2717b47STimur Tabi
3702f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
3703f2717b47STimur Tabi	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
3704f2717b47STimur Tabi	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
3705f2717b47STimur Tabi	virtual address in NOR flash.
3706f2717b47STimur Tabi
3707f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
3708f2717b47STimur Tabi	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
3709f2717b47STimur Tabi	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
3710f2717b47STimur Tabi
3711f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
3712f2717b47STimur Tabi	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
3713f2717b47STimur Tabi	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
3714f2717b47STimur Tabi
3715f2717b47STimur Tabi- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
3716f2717b47STimur Tabi	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
3717f2717b47STimur Tabi	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
3718f2717b47STimur Tabi
3719292dc6c5SLiu Gang- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
3720292dc6c5SLiu Gang	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
3721292dc6c5SLiu Gang	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
3722fc54c7faSLiu Gang	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
3723fc54c7faSLiu Gang	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in

3726c609719bSwdenkBuilding the Software:
3727c609719bSwdenk======================
3728c609719bSwdenk
3729218ca724SWolfgang DenkBuilding U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
3730218ca724SWolfgang Denkand in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
3731218ca724SWolfgang Denkall possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
3732218ca724SWolfgang Denk(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
3733218ca724SWolfgang Denkrecommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
3734218ca724SWolfgang Denkwhich is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
3735c609719bSwdenk
3736218ca724SWolfgang DenkIf you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
3737218ca724SWolfgang Denkhave GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
3738218ca724SWolfgang Denkyou must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
3739218ca724SWolfgang DenkNote that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
3740218ca724SWolfgang Denknecessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
3741c609719bSwdenk
3742218ca724SWolfgang Denk	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
3743218ca724SWolfgang Denk	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
3744c609719bSwdenk
37452f8d396bSPeter TyserNote: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
37462f8d396bSPeter Tyser      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
37472f8d396bSPeter Tyser      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
37482f8d396bSPeter Tyser      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
37492f8d396bSPeter Tyser
37502f8d396bSPeter Tyser       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
37512f8d396bSPeter Tyser
37522f8d396bSPeter Tyser      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
37532f8d396bSPeter Tyser      be executed on computers running Windows.
37542f8d396bSPeter Tyser
3755c609719bSwdenkU-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
3756c609719bSwdenksources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
3757c609719bSwdenkis done by typing:
3758c609719bSwdenk
3759c609719bSwdenk	make NAME_config
3760c609719bSwdenk
3761218ca724SWolfgang Denkwhere "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
37624d675ae6SMichael Jonesrations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
376354387ac9Swdenk
3764c609719bSwdenkNote: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
3765c609719bSwdenk      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
37662729af9dSwdenk      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
37672729af9dSwdenk      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
376811ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
3769c609719bSwdenk
37702729af9dSwdenk      make TQM823L_config
37712729af9dSwdenk	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
3772c609719bSwdenk
3773c609719bSwdenk      make TQM823L_LCD_config
3774c609719bSwdenk	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
3775c609719bSwdenk
3776c609719bSwdenk      etc.
3777c609719bSwdenk
3778c609719bSwdenk
3779c609719bSwdenkFinally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
37807152b1d0Swdenkimages ready for download to / installation on your system:
3781c609719bSwdenk
3782c609719bSwdenk- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
3783c609719bSwdenk- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
3784c609719bSwdenk- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
3785c609719bSwdenk
3786baf31249SMarian BalakowiczBy default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
3787baf31249SMarian Balakowiczin the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
3788baf31249SMarian Balakowiczthis behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
3789baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
3790baf31249SMarian Balakowicz1. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
3791baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
3792baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make O=/tmp/build distclean
3793baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
3794baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make O=/tmp/build all
3795baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
3796baf31249SMarian Balakowicz2. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
3797baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
3798baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
3799baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make distclean
3800baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make NAME_config
3801baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	make all
3802baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
3803baf31249SMarian BalakowiczNote that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
3804baf31249SMarian Balakowiczvariable.
3805baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
3806c609719bSwdenk
3807c609719bSwdenkPlease be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
3808c609719bSwdenkfor instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
3809c609719bSwdenknative "make".
3810c609719bSwdenk
3811c609719bSwdenk
3812c609719bSwdenkIf the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
3813c609719bSwdenkto port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
3814c609719bSwdenksteps:
3815c609719bSwdenk
3816c609719bSwdenk1.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
38174d675ae6SMichael Jones    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
38184d675ae6SMichael Jones    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
3819c609719bSwdenk2.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
382085ec0bccSwdenk    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
382185ec0bccSwdenk    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
382285ec0bccSwdenk3.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
382385ec0bccSwdenk    your board
3824c609719bSwdenk3.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
3825c609719bSwdenk    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
382685ec0bccSwdenk4.  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
3827c609719bSwdenk5.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
3828c609719bSwdenk    to be installed on your target system.
382985ec0bccSwdenk6.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
3830c609719bSwdenk    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
3831c609719bSwdenk
3832c609719bSwdenk
3833c609719bSwdenkTesting of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
3834c609719bSwdenk==============================================================
3835c609719bSwdenk
3836c609719bSwdenkIf you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
3837c609719bSwdenkor support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
3838c609719bSwdenkprovide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
3839c609719bSwdenkthe form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
3840218ca724SWolfgang Denkofficial or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
3841c609719bSwdenk
3842c609719bSwdenkBut before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
3843c609719bSwdenkcation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
3844c609719bSwdenkthe supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
3845c609719bSwdenkjust run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
3846c609719bSwdenkfor ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
38477152b1d0Swdenkselect which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
3848218ca724SWolfgang Denkenvironment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
3849218ca724SWolfgang Denkyou can type
3850c609719bSwdenk
3851c609719bSwdenk	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
3852c609719bSwdenk
3853c609719bSwdenkor to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
3854c609719bSwdenk
3855c609719bSwdenk	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
3856c609719bSwdenk
3857218ca724SWolfgang DenkWhen using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
3858218ca724SWolfgang DenkU-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
3859218ca724SWolfgang Denksetting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
3860218ca724SWolfgang Denkbuilt, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
3861218ca724SWolfgang Denk<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
3862218ca724SWolfgang Denklocation can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
3863218ca724SWolfgang Denkvariable. For example:
3864baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
3865baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
3866baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
3867baf31249SMarian Balakowicz	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
3868baf31249SMarian Balakowicz
3869218ca724SWolfgang DenkWith the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
3870218ca724SWolfgang Denklog files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
3871218ca724SWolfgang Denkduring the whole build process.

3934c609719bSwdenkEnvironment Variables:
3935c609719bSwdenk======================
3936c609719bSwdenk
3937c609719bSwdenkU-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
3938c609719bSwdenkcan be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
3939c609719bSwdenk
3940c609719bSwdenkEnvironment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
3941c609719bSwdenk"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
3942c609719bSwdenkwithout a value can be used to delete a variable from the
3943c609719bSwdenkenvironment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
3944c609719bSwdenkworking with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
3945c609719bSwdenkenvironment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
3946c609719bSwdenk
3947c96f86eeSWolfgang DenkSome configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
3948c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk
3949c96f86eeSWolfgang DenkList of environment variables (most likely not complete):
3950c609719bSwdenk
3951c609719bSwdenk  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
3952c609719bSwdenk
3953c609719bSwdenk  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
3954c609719bSwdenk
3955c609719bSwdenk  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
3956c609719bSwdenk
3957c609719bSwdenk  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
3958c609719bSwdenk
3959c609719bSwdenk  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
3960c609719bSwdenk
39617d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
39627d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
39637d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
39647d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
39657d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
39667d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
3967c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
3968c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  bootm_mapsize.
3969c3624e6eSGrant Likely
3970c3624e6eSGrant Likely  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
3971c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
3972c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
3973c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
3974c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
3975c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
3976c3624e6eSGrant Likely		  used otherwise.
39777d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka
39787d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
39797d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
39807d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
39817d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
39827d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka		  environment variable.
39837d721e34SBartlomiej Sieka
39844bae9090SBartlomiej Sieka  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
39854bae9090SBartlomiej Sieka		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
39864bae9090SBartlomiej Sieka		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
39874bae9090SBartlomiej Sieka
3988c609719bSwdenk  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
3989c609719bSwdenk		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
3990c609719bSwdenk		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
3991c609719bSwdenk		  load any image using TFTP
3992c609719bSwdenk
3993c609719bSwdenk  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
3994c609719bSwdenk		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
3995c609719bSwdenk		  be automatically started (by internally calling
3996c609719bSwdenk		  "bootm")
3997c609719bSwdenk
39984a6fd34bSwdenk		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
39994a6fd34bSwdenk		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
40004a6fd34bSwdenk		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
40014a6fd34bSwdenk		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
40024a6fd34bSwdenk		  data.
40034a6fd34bSwdenk
4004a28afca5SDavid A. Long  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
4005a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
4006fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
4007fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
4008fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
4009fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
4010fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
4011fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
4012fa34f6b2SShawn Guo		  access it during the boot procedure.
4013fa34f6b2SShawn Guo
4014a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
4015a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
4016a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
4017a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
4018a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
4019a28afca5SDavid A. Long		  must be accessible by the kernel.
4020a28afca5SDavid A. Long
4021eea63e05SSimon Glass  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
4022eea63e05SSimon Glass		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
4023eea63e05SSimon Glass		  defined.
4024eea63e05SSimon Glass
402517ea1177Swdenk  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
402617ea1177Swdenk		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
402717ea1177Swdenk		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
402817ea1177Swdenk		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
402917ea1177Swdenk		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
403017ea1177Swdenk
4031c609719bSwdenk  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
4032c609719bSwdenk		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4033c609719bSwdenk		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4034c609719bSwdenk		  is usually what you want since it allows for
4035c609719bSwdenk		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4036c609719bSwdenk		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
40376d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
4038c609719bSwdenk		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4039c609719bSwdenk		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4040c609719bSwdenk		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4041c609719bSwdenk		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
4042c609719bSwdenk
4043c609719bSwdenk		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
40447152b1d0Swdenk		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4045c609719bSwdenk		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4046c609719bSwdenk		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
40477152b1d0Swdenk		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4048c609719bSwdenk		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4049c609719bSwdenk
4050c609719bSwdenk		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4051c609719bSwdenk
405238b99261Swdenk		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
405338b99261Swdenk		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
405438b99261Swdenk		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
405538b99261Swdenk		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
405638b99261Swdenk		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
405738b99261Swdenk		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
405838b99261Swdenk		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
405938b99261Swdenk

4064c609719bSwdenk
4065c609719bSwdenk  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4066c609719bSwdenk

4074c609719bSwdenk
4075e2a53458SMike Frysinger  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4076a3d991bdSwdenk
4077e2a53458SMike Frysinger  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4078e2a53458SMike Frysinger		  For example you can do the following
4079a3d991bdSwdenk
408048690d80SHeiko Schocher		  => setenv ethact FEC
408148690d80SHeiko Schocher		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
408248690d80SHeiko Schocher		  => setenv ethact SCC
408348690d80SHeiko Schocher		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4084a3d991bdSwdenk
4085e1692577SMatthias Fuchs  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4086e1692577SMatthias Fuchs		  available network interfaces.
4087e1692577SMatthias Fuchs		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4088e1692577SMatthias Fuchs
4089a3d991bdSwdenk  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4090a3d991bdSwdenk		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
40916e592385Swdenk		  When set to "once" the network operation will
40926e592385Swdenk		  fail when all the available network interfaces
40936e592385Swdenk		  are tried once without success.
4094a3d991bdSwdenk		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4095a3d991bdSwdenk		  themselves.
4096a3d991bdSwdenk
4097b4e2f89dSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
4098a1cf027aSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD

4100ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk		  UDP source port.
4101ecb0ccd9SWolfgang Denk
410228cb9375SWolfgang Denk  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
410328cb9375SWolfgang Denk		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
410428cb9375SWolfgang Denk
4105c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4106c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4107c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk
4108c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4109c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4110c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4111c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4112c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4113c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4114c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
4115c96f86eeSWolfgang Denk

4120dc0b7b0eSJason HobbsThe following image location variables contain the location of images
4121dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbsused in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4122dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbsnot an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4123dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbsvariable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4124dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbsserver, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4125dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbsloaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4126dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbsflash or offset in NAND flash.
4127dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbs
4128dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbs*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4129dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbsboards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
4130dc0b7b0eSJason Hobbsboards use these variables for other purposes.

4154c609719bSwdenkThere are two special Environment Variables:
4155c609719bSwdenk
4156c609719bSwdenk  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
4157c609719bSwdenk		  as type string and/or serial number
4158c609719bSwdenk  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
4159c609719bSwdenk
4160c609719bSwdenkThese variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4161c609719bSwdenkthe board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4162c609719bSwdenkonce they have been set once.
4163c609719bSwdenk
4164c609719bSwdenk
4165c1551ea8SstroeseFurther special Environment Variables:
4166c1551ea8Sstroese
4167c1551ea8Sstroese  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4168c1551ea8Sstroese		  with the "version" command. This variable is

4176f07771ccSwdenkCommand Line Parsing:
4177f07771ccSwdenk=====================
4178f07771ccSwdenk
4179f07771ccSwdenkThere are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
41807152b1d0Swdenkthe old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
4181f07771ccSwdenk
4182f07771ccSwdenkOld, simple command line parser:
4183f07771ccSwdenk--------------------------------
4184f07771ccSwdenk
4185f07771ccSwdenk- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
4186f07771ccSwdenk- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
4187fe126d8bSWolfgang Denk- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
4188f07771ccSwdenk- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
4189f07771ccSwdenk  for example:
4190fe126d8bSWolfgang Denk	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
4191f07771ccSwdenk- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
4192f07771ccSwdenk	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
4193f07771ccSwdenk
4194f07771ccSwdenkHush shell:
4195f07771ccSwdenk-----------
4196f07771ccSwdenk
4197f07771ccSwdenk- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4198f07771ccSwdenk  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4199f07771ccSwdenk  until...do...done, ...
4200f07771ccSwdenk- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4201f07771ccSwdenk  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4202f07771ccSwdenk  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4203f07771ccSwdenk  command
4204f07771ccSwdenk
4205f07771ccSwdenkGeneral rules:
4206f07771ccSwdenk--------------
4207f07771ccSwdenk
4208f07771ccSwdenk(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4209f07771ccSwdenk    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4210f07771ccSwdenk    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4211f07771ccSwdenk    executed anyway.
4212f07771ccSwdenk
4213f07771ccSwdenk(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
421411ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
4215f07771ccSwdenk    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4216f07771ccSwdenk    variables are not executed.
4217f07771ccSwdenk
4218c609719bSwdenkNote for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4219c609719bSwdenk=======================================
4220c609719bSwdenk
422111ccc33fSMarcel ZiswilerSome boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
4222c609719bSwdenksuch configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
42237152b1d0Swdenk"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
4224c609719bSwdenk
4225c609719bSwdenkNetwork interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4226c609719bSwdenkMAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4227c609719bSwdenk"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
4228c609719bSwdenk
4229c609719bSwdenkIf the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4230c609719bSwdenkin SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4231c609719bSwdenkding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4232c609719bSwdenkvariable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
4233c609719bSwdenk
4234c609719bSwdenko If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4235c609719bSwdenk  environment, the SROM's address is used.
4236c609719bSwdenk
4237c609719bSwdenko If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4238c609719bSwdenk  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4239c609719bSwdenk  used.
4240c609719bSwdenk
4241c609719bSwdenko If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4242c609719bSwdenk  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
4243c609719bSwdenk
4244c609719bSwdenko If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4245c609719bSwdenk  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4246c609719bSwdenk  warning is printed.
4247c609719bSwdenk
4248c609719bSwdenko If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4249c609719bSwdenk  is raised.
4250c609719bSwdenk
4251ecee9324SBen WarrenIf Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
4252ecee9324SBen Warrenwill be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
4253ecee9324SBen Warrenmay be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4254ecee9324SBen WarrenThe naming convention is as follows:
4255ecee9324SBen Warren"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.

42753310c549SMarian BalakowiczOld image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
42763310c549SMarian Balakowiczpreceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
42773310c549SMarian Balakowiczdetails; basically, the header defines the following image properties:

4296c609719bSwdenk
4297c609719bSwdenk
4298c609719bSwdenkLinux Support:
4299c609719bSwdenk==============
4300c609719bSwdenk
4301c609719bSwdenkAlthough U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
43027152b1d0Swdenkeasily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4303c609719bSwdenkU-Boot.
4304c609719bSwdenk
4305c609719bSwdenkU-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4306c609719bSwdenkspecial "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4307c609719bSwdenk"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4308c609719bSwdenkinstead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
43097152b1d0Swdenkserves several purposes:
4310c609719bSwdenk
4311c609719bSwdenk- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4312c609719bSwdenk  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4313c609719bSwdenk  Flash memory footprint)
4314c609719bSwdenk
4315c609719bSwdenk- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
43167152b1d0Swdenk  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
4317c609719bSwdenk
4318c609719bSwdenk- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4319c609719bSwdenk  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4320c609719bSwdenk  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4321c609719bSwdenk  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4322c609719bSwdenk  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4323c609719bSwdenk  software is easier now.

4325c609719bSwdenk
4326c609719bSwdenkLinux HOWTO:
4327c609719bSwdenk============
4328c609719bSwdenk
4329c609719bSwdenkPorting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4330c609719bSwdenk---------------------------------------
4331c609719bSwdenk
4332c609719bSwdenkU-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4333c609719bSwdenkconfigure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4334c609719bSwdenk(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4335c609719bSwdenkLinux :-).
4336c609719bSwdenk
4337a47a12beSStefan RoeseBut now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
4338c609719bSwdenk
4339c609719bSwdenkJust make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
4340c609719bSwdenkinclude/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
43411dc30693SMarkus HeidelbergInformation structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
43421dc30693SMarkus Heidelbergand make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
43436d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARDas your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
4344c609719bSwdenk
4345c609719bSwdenk
4346c609719bSwdenkConfiguring the Linux kernel:
4347c609719bSwdenk-----------------------------
4348c609719bSwdenk
4349c609719bSwdenkNo specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
4350c609719bSwdenkdevice (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
4351c609719bSwdenk
4352c609719bSwdenk
4353c609719bSwdenkBuilding a Linux Image:
4354c609719bSwdenk-----------------------
4355c609719bSwdenk
435624ee89b9SwdenkWith U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
435724ee89b9Swdenknot used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
435824ee89b9Swdenk"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
435924ee89b9SwdenkU-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
436024ee89b9Swdenkwhich was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
436124ee89b9Swdenk100% compatible format.
4362c609719bSwdenk
4363c609719bSwdenkExample:
4364c609719bSwdenk
4365c609719bSwdenk	make TQM850L_config
4366c609719bSwdenk	make oldconfig
4367c609719bSwdenk	make dep
436824ee89b9Swdenk	make uImage
4369c609719bSwdenk
437024ee89b9SwdenkThe "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
437124ee89b9Swdenkencapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
437224ee89b9SwdenkCRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
4373c609719bSwdenk
437424ee89b9Swdenk* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
437524ee89b9Swdenk
437624ee89b9Swdenk* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
437724ee89b9Swdenk
437824ee89b9Swdenk	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
437924ee89b9Swdenk				 -R .note -R .comment \
438024ee89b9Swdenk				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
438124ee89b9Swdenk
438224ee89b9Swdenk* compress the binary image:
438324ee89b9Swdenk
438424ee89b9Swdenk	gzip -9 linux.bin
438524ee89b9Swdenk
438624ee89b9Swdenk* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
438724ee89b9Swdenk
438824ee89b9Swdenk	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
438924ee89b9Swdenk		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
439024ee89b9Swdenk		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
439124ee89b9Swdenk
439224ee89b9Swdenk
439324ee89b9SwdenkThe "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
439424ee89b9Swdenkwith U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
439524ee89b9Swdenkcombined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
439624ee89b9Swdenkbyte header containing information about target architecture,
439724ee89b9Swdenkoperating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
439824ee89b9Swdenkstamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
439924ee89b9Swdenk
440024ee89b9Swdenk"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
440124ee89b9Swdenkprint the header information, or to build new images.
4402c609719bSwdenk
4403c609719bSwdenkIn the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
4404c609719bSwdenkcontained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
4405c609719bSwdenkchecksum verification:
4406c609719bSwdenk
4407c609719bSwdenk	tools/mkimage -l image
4408c609719bSwdenk	  -l ==> list image header information
4409c609719bSwdenk
4410c609719bSwdenkThe second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
4411c609719bSwdenkfrom a "data file" which is used as image payload:
4412c609719bSwdenk
4413c609719bSwdenk	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
4414c609719bSwdenk		      -n name -d data_file image
4415c609719bSwdenk	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
4416c609719bSwdenk	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
4417c609719bSwdenk	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4418c609719bSwdenk	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
4419c609719bSwdenk	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
4420c609719bSwdenk	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
4421c609719bSwdenk	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
4422c609719bSwdenk	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
4423c609719bSwdenk
442469459791SwdenkRight now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
442569459791Swdenkaddress (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
442669459791Swdenkkernel version:
4427c609719bSwdenk
4428c609719bSwdenk- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
442924ee89b9Swdenk- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
4430c609719bSwdenk
4431c609719bSwdenkSo a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
4432c609719bSwdenk
443324ee89b9Swdenk	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
443424ee89b9Swdenk	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \

4444c609719bSwdenkTo verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
4445c609719bSwdenk
444624ee89b9Swdenk	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
444724ee89b9Swdenk	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L

4453c609719bSwdenk
4454c609719bSwdenkNOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
4455c609719bSwdenkspeed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
4456c609719bSwdenkneeds more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
4457c609719bSwdenkneed to be uncompressed:

4486c609719bSwdenkInstalling a Linux Image:
4487c609719bSwdenk-------------------------
4488c609719bSwdenk
4489c609719bSwdenkTo downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
4490c609719bSwdenkyou must convert the image to S-Record format:
4491c609719bSwdenk
4492c609719bSwdenk	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
4493c609719bSwdenk
4494c609719bSwdenkThe 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
4495c609719bSwdenkimage header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
4496c609719bSwdenkaddress 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
4497c609719bSwdenkspecify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
4498c609719bSwdenkcommand.
4499c609719bSwdenk
4500c609719bSwdenkExample: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
4501c609719bSwdenkTQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
4502c609719bSwdenk

46666069ff26SwdenkMore About U-Boot Image Types:
46676069ff26Swdenk------------------------------
46686069ff26Swdenk
46696069ff26SwdenkU-Boot supports the following image types:
46706069ff26Swdenk
46716069ff26Swdenk   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
46726069ff26Swdenk	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
46736069ff26Swdenk	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
46746069ff26Swdenk	the Standalone Program.
46756069ff26Swdenk   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
46766069ff26Swdenk	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
46776069ff26Swdenk	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
46786069ff26Swdenk	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
46796069ff26Swdenk	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
46806069ff26Swdenk   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
46816069ff26Swdenk	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
46826069ff26Swdenk	being started.
46836069ff26Swdenk   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
46846069ff26Swdenk	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
46856069ff26Swdenk	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
46866069ff26Swdenk	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
46876069ff26Swdenk	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
46886069ff26Swdenk	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
46896069ff26Swdenk
46906069ff26Swdenk	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
46916069ff26Swdenk	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
46926069ff26Swdenk	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
46936069ff26Swdenk	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
46946069ff26Swdenk	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
46956069ff26Swdenk	a multiple of 4 bytes).
46966069ff26Swdenk
46976069ff26Swdenk   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
46986069ff26Swdenk	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
46996069ff26Swdenk	flash memory.
47006069ff26Swdenk
47016069ff26Swdenk   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
47026069ff26Swdenk	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
47036069ff26Swdenk	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
47046069ff26Swdenk	as command interpreter.

470744f074c7SMarek Vasut-------------------------
470844f074c7SMarek Vasut
470944f074c7SMarek VasutOn some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
471044f074c7SMarek Vasutusing the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
471144f074c7SMarek Vasutas the syntax of "bootm" command.
471244f074c7SMarek Vasut
4713017e1f3fSMarek VasutNote, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_INITRD_RAW allows user to supply
4714017e1f3fSMarek Vasutkernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
4715017e1f3fSMarek Vasutaddress of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
4716017e1f3fSMarek Vasutformat: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".

4720c609719bSwdenk=================
4721c609719bSwdenk
4722c609719bSwdenkOne of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
4723c609719bSwdenkrun "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
4724c609719bSwdenkU-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.

4760c609719bSwdenkAnother example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
4761c609719bSwdenkhandler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
4762c609719bSwdenkHere, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
4763c609719bSwdenkThe interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
4764c609719bSwdenkcharacter, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
4765c609719bSwdenkcontrolled by the following keys:
4766c609719bSwdenk
4767c609719bSwdenk	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
4768c609719bSwdenk	b - enable interrupts and start timer

4828c609719bSwdenkNetBSD Notes:
4829c609719bSwdenk=============
4830c609719bSwdenk
4831c609719bSwdenkStarting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
4832c609719bSwdenk(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
4833c609719bSwdenk
4834c609719bSwdenkBuilding requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
4835c609719bSwdenkNetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
4836c609719bSwdenkneed gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
4837c609719bSwdenkNote that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
4838c609719bSwdenkattempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
4839c609719bSwdenkmissing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
4840c609719bSwdenk
4841c609719bSwdenk	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
4842c609719bSwdenk	# mkdir powerpc
4843c609719bSwdenk	# ln -s powerpc machine
4844c609719bSwdenk	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
4845c609719bSwdenk	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
4846c609719bSwdenk
4847c609719bSwdenkNative builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
4848c609719bSwdenkand U-Boot include files.
4849c609719bSwdenk
4850c609719bSwdenkBooting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
4851c609719bSwdenkstage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
4852c609719bSwdenkproper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
4853c609719bSwdenktree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
48542a8af187Swdenkmeantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz

4857c609719bSwdenkImplementation Internals:
4858c609719bSwdenk=========================
4859c609719bSwdenk
4860c609719bSwdenkThe following is not intended to be a complete description of every
4861c609719bSwdenkimplementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
4862c609719bSwdenkinner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
4863c609719bSwdenkhardware.
4864c609719bSwdenk
4865c609719bSwdenk
4866c609719bSwdenkInitial Stack, Global Data:
4867c609719bSwdenk---------------------------
4868c609719bSwdenk
4869c609719bSwdenkThe implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
4870c609719bSwdenkstarts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
4871c609719bSwdenksystem RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
4872c609719bSwdenkThis means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
4873c609719bSwdenkis not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
4874c609719bSwdenkat all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
4875c609719bSwdenkoptions for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
4876c609719bSwdenkmodels provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
4877c609719bSwdenkMPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
4878c609719bSwdenklocked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
4879c609719bSwdenk
48807152b1d0Swdenk	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
48810668236bSWolfgang Denk	U-Boot mailing list:

488643d9616cSwdenk	...
488743d9616cSwdenk
488843d9616cSwdenk	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
488943d9616cSwdenk	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
489043d9616cSwdenk	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
489143d9616cSwdenk	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
489243d9616cSwdenk	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
489311ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
489443d9616cSwdenk	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
489543d9616cSwdenk	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
489643d9616cSwdenk
489743d9616cSwdenk	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
489843d9616cSwdenk	is another option for the system designer to use as an
489911ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
490043d9616cSwdenk	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
490143d9616cSwdenk	board designers haven't used it for something that would
490243d9616cSwdenk	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
490343d9616cSwdenk	used.
490443d9616cSwdenk
49056d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
490643d9616cSwdenk	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
490743d9616cSwdenk	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
49088a316c9bSStefan Roese	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
490943d9616cSwdenk	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
491043d9616cSwdenk	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
491143d9616cSwdenk	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
491243d9616cSwdenk	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
491343d9616cSwdenk	you get the config right.

491743d9616cSwdenk
4918c609719bSwdenkIt is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
4919c609719bSwdenkcode for the initialization procedures:
4920c609719bSwdenk
4921c609719bSwdenk* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
4922c609719bSwdenk  to write it.
4923c609719bSwdenk
492411ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
4925c609719bSwdenk  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
49267152b1d0Swdenk  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
4927c609719bSwdenk
4928c609719bSwdenk* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
4929c609719bSwdenk  that.
4930c609719bSwdenk
4931c609719bSwdenkHaving only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
4932c609719bSwdenknormal global data to share information beween the code. But it
4933c609719bSwdenkturned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
4934c609719bSwdenksimplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
4935c609719bSwdenkfunctions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
4936c609719bSwdenkfunctions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
4937c609719bSwdenkthe GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
4938c609719bSwdenkplace a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
4939c609719bSwdenkreserve for this purpose.
4940c609719bSwdenk
49417152b1d0SwdenkWhen choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
4942c609719bSwdenkrelevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
4943c609719bSwdenkGCC's implementation.
4944c609719bSwdenk
4945c609719bSwdenkFor PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
4946c609719bSwdenk	R1:	stack pointer
4947e7670f6cSWolfgang Denk	R2:	reserved for system use
4948c609719bSwdenk	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
4949c609719bSwdenk	R5-R10: parameter passing
4950c609719bSwdenk	R13:	small data area pointer
4951c609719bSwdenk	R30:	GOT pointer
4952c609719bSwdenk	R31:	frame pointer
4953c609719bSwdenk
4954e6bee808SJoakim Tjernlund	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
4955e6bee808SJoakim Tjernlund	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
4956e6bee808SJoakim Tjernlund	going back and forth between asm and C)
4957c609719bSwdenk
4958e7670f6cSWolfgang Denk    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
4959c609719bSwdenk
4960c609719bSwdenk    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
4961c609719bSwdenk    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
4962c609719bSwdenk    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
4963c609719bSwdenk    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
4964c609719bSwdenk    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
4965c609719bSwdenk    624 text + 127 data).

5011c609719bSwdenkMemory Management:
5012c609719bSwdenk------------------
5013c609719bSwdenk
5014c609719bSwdenkU-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5015c609719bSwdenkMMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5016c609719bSwdenk
5017c609719bSwdenkThe available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5018c609719bSwdenkcontroller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5019c609719bSwdenkmemory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5020c609719bSwdenkphysical memory banks.

5022c609719bSwdenkU-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5023c609719bSwdenkTQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5024c609719bSwdenkbooting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5025c609719bSwdenkto the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
50266d0f6bcfSJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARDmemory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5027c609719bSwdenkconfiguration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5028c609719bSwdenkInfo data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5029c609719bSwdenk
5030c609719bSwdenkAdditionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5031c609719bSwdenkof DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5032c609719bSwdenk
5033c609719bSwdenkSo a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5034c609719bSwdenkthis:
5035c609719bSwdenk
5036c609719bSwdenk	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5037c609719bSwdenk	      :
5038c609719bSwdenk	0x0000 1FFF
5039c609719bSwdenk	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5040c609719bSwdenk	      :
5041c609719bSwdenk	      :
5042c609719bSwdenk
5043c609719bSwdenk	      :
5044c609719bSwdenk	      :
5045c609719bSwdenk	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5046c609719bSwdenk	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5047c609719bSwdenk	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5048c609719bSwdenk	      :
5049c609719bSwdenk	0x00FD FFFF
5050c609719bSwdenk	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5051c609719bSwdenk	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5052c609719bSwdenk	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5053c609719bSwdenk	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5054c609719bSwdenk
5055c609719bSwdenk
5056c609719bSwdenkSystem Initialization:
5057c609719bSwdenk----------------------
5058c609719bSwdenk
5059c609719bSwdenkIn the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
506011ccc33fSMarcel Ziswiler(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5061c609719bSwdenkconfiguration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
50627152b1d0SwdenkTo be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5063c609719bSwdenkTo be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5064c609719bSwdenkinitial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5065c609719bSwdenkwhich provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
5066c609719bSwdenkpart of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
5067c609719bSwdenkthe caches and the SIU.
5068c609719bSwdenk
5069c609719bSwdenkNext, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5070c609719bSwdenkpreliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5071c609719bSwdenk(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5072c609719bSwdenkon 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5073c609719bSwdenkprogrammed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5074c609719bSwdenksimple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5075c609719bSwdenkbanks.
5076c609719bSwdenk
5077c609719bSwdenkWhen there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
50787152b1d0Swdenkdifferent size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5079c609719bSwdenkbank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
5080c609719bSwdenk0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5081c609719bSwdenkcontiguous memory starting from 0.
5082c609719bSwdenk
5083c609719bSwdenkThen, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5084c609719bSwdenkand allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5085c609719bSwdenkInfo data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5086c609719bSwdenkpages, and the final stack is set up.
5087c609719bSwdenk
5088c609719bSwdenkOnly after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5089c609719bSwdenkuntil that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5090c609719bSwdenkrunning from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5091c609719bSwdenknew address in RAM.

5169c609719bSwdenk-----------------
5170c609719bSwdenk
5171c609719bSwdenkAll contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
51722c051651SDetlev Zundelcoding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
51737ca9296eSWolfgang Denk"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
5174c609719bSwdenk
51752c051651SDetlev ZundelSource files originating from a different project (for example the
51762c051651SDetlev ZundelMTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
51772c051651SDetlev Zundelreformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
51782c051651SDetlev Zundelsources.
51792c051651SDetlev Zundel
51802c051651SDetlev ZundelPlease note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
51812c051651SDetlev ZundelAssembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
51822c051651SDetlev Zundelin your code.
5183c609719bSwdenk
5184c178d3daSwdenkPlease also stick to the following formatting rules:
5185180d3f74Swdenk- remove any trailing white space
51867ca9296eSWolfgang Denk- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
5187180d3f74Swdenk- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
51887ca9296eSWolfgang Denk- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
5189180d3f74Swdenk- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
5190180d3f74Swdenk

5196c609719bSwdenk-------------------
5197c609719bSwdenk
5198c609719bSwdenkSince the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
5199c609719bSwdenkestablish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
5200c609719bSwdenkmay be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
5201c609719bSwdenk
52020d28f34bSMagnus LiljaPlease see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
5203218ca724SWolfgang Denk
52040668236bSWolfgang DenkPatches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
52050668236bSWolfgang Denksee http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
52060668236bSWolfgang Denk
5207c609719bSwdenkWhen you send a patch, please include the following information with
5208c609719bSwdenkit:
5209c609719bSwdenk
5210c609719bSwdenk* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
5211c609719bSwdenk  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
5212c609719bSwdenk  patch actually fixes something.
5213c609719bSwdenk
5214c609719bSwdenk* For new features: a description of the feature and your
5215c609719bSwdenk  implementation.
5216c609719bSwdenk
5217c609719bSwdenk* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
5218c609719bSwdenk
5219c609719bSwdenk* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
5220c609719bSwdenk
5221c609719bSwdenk* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add this
52227ca9296eSWolfgang Denk  board to the MAINTAINERS file, too.
5223c609719bSwdenk
5224c609719bSwdenk* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5225c609719bSwdenk  document these in the README file.
5226c609719bSwdenk
5227218ca724SWolfgang Denk* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5228218ca724SWolfgang Denk  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
52297ca9296eSWolfgang Denk  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
5230218ca724SWolfgang Denk  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5231218ca724SWolfgang Denk  with some other mail clients.
5232c609719bSwdenk
5233218ca724SWolfgang Denk  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5234218ca724SWolfgang Denk  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5235218ca724SWolfgang Denk  GNU diff.
52366dff5529Swdenk
5237218ca724SWolfgang Denk  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5238218ca724SWolfgang Denk  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5239218ca724SWolfgang Denk  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
5240218ca724SWolfgang Denk  affected files).
5241218ca724SWolfgang Denk
5242218ca724SWolfgang Denk  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5243218ca724SWolfgang Denk  and compressed attachments must not be used.
5244c609719bSwdenk
524552f52c14Swdenk* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
524652f52c14Swdenk  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
524752f52c14Swdenk
524852f52c14Swdenk* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
524952f52c14Swdenk  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.

525152f52c14Swdenk
5252c609719bSwdenkNotes:
5253c609719bSwdenk
5254c609719bSwdenk* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
5255c609719bSwdenk  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5256c609719bSwdenk  for any of the boards.
5257c609719bSwdenk
5258c609719bSwdenk* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5259c609719bSwdenk  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5260c609719bSwdenk  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
5261c609719bSwdenk
5262c609719bSwdenk* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5263c609719bSwdenk  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5264c609719bSwdenk  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5265c609719bSwdenk  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5266c609719bSwdenk  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5267c609719bSwdenk  modification.
526890dc6704Swdenk
52690668236bSWolfgang Denk* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
52700668236bSWolfgang Denk  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
52710668236bSWolfgang Denk  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
52720668236bSWolfgang Denk  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
