8Summary:
9========
10
11This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
12Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
13processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
14initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
15code.
16
17The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
18the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
19header files in common, and special provision has been made to
20support booting of Linux images.
21
22Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
23configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
24implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
25add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
26code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
27load and run it dynamically.
28
29
30Status:
31=======
32
33In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
34Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
35"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.
36
37In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out
38who contributed the specific port. The boards.cfg file lists board
39maintainers.
40
41Note: There is no CHANGELOG file in the actual U-Boot source tree;
42it can be created dynamically from the Git log using:

227Software Configuration:
228=======================
229
230Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
231rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
232
233There are two classes of configuration variables:
234
235* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
236  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
237  "CONFIG_".
238
239* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
240  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
241  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
242  "CONFIG_SYS_".
243
244Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
245identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
246do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
247links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
248as an example here.
249
250
251Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
252---------------------------------------------------
253
254For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
255configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig".
256
257Example: For a TQM823L module type:
258
259	cd u-boot
260	make TQM823L_defconfig
261
262For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
263e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_defconfig". And also configure the cogent
264directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
265
266
267Sandbox Environment:
268--------------------
269
270U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox'
271board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture-
272specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to
273run some of U-Boot's tests.
274
275See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details.
276
277
278Configuration Options:
279----------------------
280
281Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
282such information is kept in a configuration file
283"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
284
285Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
286"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
287
288
289Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
290kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
291build a config tool - later.
292
293
294The following options need to be configured:
295
296- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
297
298- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
299
300- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
301		Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
302
303- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
304		Define exactly one of
305		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
306--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
307		CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
308		CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
309
310- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
311		Define exactly one of
312		CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
313
314- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
315		Define one or more of
316		CONFIG_CMA302
317
318- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
319		Define one or more of
320		CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT	- update a character position on
321					  the LCD display every second with
322					  a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
323
324- Marvell Family Member
325		CONFIG_SYS_MVFS		- define it if you want to enable
326					  multiple fs option at one time
327					  for marvell soc family
328
329- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
330		Define exactly one of
331		CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
332
333- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
334		CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ	- deprecated: CPU clock if
335					  get_gclk_freq() cannot work
336					  e.g. if there is no 32KHz
337					  reference PIT/RTC clock
338		CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK	- PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
339					  or XTAL/EXTAL)
340
341- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
342		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
343		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
344		CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
345			See doc/README.MPC866
346
347		CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
348
349		Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
350		of relying on the correctness of the configured
351		values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
352		the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
353		that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
354		RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
355
356		CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
357
358		Define this option if you want to enable the
359		ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
360
361- 85xx CPU Options:
362		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
363
364		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
365		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
366		compliance, among other possible reasons.
367
368		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
369
370		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
371		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
372		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
373
374		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
375
376		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
377		tree nodes for the given platform.
378
379		CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
380
381		Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
382		around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
383		support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
384		breakpoints and single stepping do not work.  The value of this
385		symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
386		purpose.
387
388		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
389
390		Enables a workaround for erratum A004510.  If set,
391		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
392		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
393
394		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
395		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
396
397		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
398		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
399
400		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
401		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
402		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
403		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
404
405		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
406		this erratum.
407
408		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
409		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
410		requred during NOR boot.
411
412		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
413
414		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
415		according to the A004510 workaround.
416
417		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
418		This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
419		connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
420
421		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
422		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
423		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
424
425		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
426		This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
427		connected to the DSP core.
428
429		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
430		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
431
432		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
433		Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
434		In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
435		clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
436
437		CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F
438		This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the
439		time of U-boot entry and is required to be re-initialized.
440
441		CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP
442		Inidcates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is
443		supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up.
444
445- Generic CPU options:
446		CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA
447		Defines global data is initialized in generic board board_init_f().
448		If this macro is defined, global data is created and cleared in
449		generic board board_init_f(). Without this macro, architecture/board
450		should initialize global data before calling board_init_f().
451
452		CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
453
454		Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
455		values is arch specific.
456
457		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR

530
531		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_SDRAM_BASE_PHY
532		Physical address from the view of DDR controllers. It is the
533		same as CONFIG_SYS_DDR_SDRAM_BASE for  all Power SoCs. But
534		it could be different for ARM SoCs.
535
536		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_INTLV_256B
537		DDR controller interleaving on 256-byte. This is a special
538		interleaving mode, handled by Dickens for Freescale layerscape
539		SoCs with ARM core.
540
541- Intel Monahans options:
542		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO
543
544		Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator
545		ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core
546		frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz.
547
548		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO
549
550		Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator
551		ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and
552		2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied
553		by this value.
554
555- MIPS CPU options:
556		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET
557
558		Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack
559		pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before
560		relocation.
561
562		CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE
563
564		Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU.
565		See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h.
566		Possible values are:
567			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA
568			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA
569			CONF_CM_UNCACHED
570			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT
571			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE
572			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW
573			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW
574			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
575
576		CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
577
578		Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
579		See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
580
581		CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
582
583		Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
584		XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
585		be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
586
587- ARM options:
588		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
589
590		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
591		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
592
593		CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
594
595		Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
596		set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
597		better code density. For ARM architectures that support
598		Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
599		GCC.
600
601		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
602		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
603		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
604		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
605		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072
606		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_761320
607
608		If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
609		during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
610		workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
611		exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
612		set these options unless they apply!
613
614- CPU timer options:
615		CONFIG_SYS_HZ
616
617		The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer().
618		get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG
619		option must be set to 1000.
620
621- Linux Kernel Interface:
622		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
623
624		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
625		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
626		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
627		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
628		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
629		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
630		Linux kernel.
631		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
632		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
633		default environment.
634
635		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
636
637		When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions
638		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
639		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
640
641		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
642
643		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
644		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
645		concepts).
646
647		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
648		 * New libfdt-based support
649		 * Adds the "fdt" command
650		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
651
652		OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
653			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
654		OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
655			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
656		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
657		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
658
659		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
660		addresses
661
662		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
663
664		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
665		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
666
667		CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
668
669		This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
670		param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
671
672		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
673
674		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
675		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
676		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
677		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
678		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
679		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
680
681		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
682
683		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
684		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
685		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
686		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
687		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
688		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
689		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
690
691- vxWorks boot parameters:
692
693		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
694		environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
695		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
696
697		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
698		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
699		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
700		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
701
702		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
703
704		Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
705
706		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
707		the defaults discussed just above.
708
709- Cache Configuration:
710		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
711		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
712		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
713
714- Cache Configuration for ARM:
715		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
716				      controller
717		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
718					controller register space
719
720- Serial Ports:
721		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
722
723		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
724
725		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
726
727		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
728
729		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
730
731		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
732		the clock speed of the UARTs.
733
734		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
735
736		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
737		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
738		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
739
740		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
741
742		Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
743		have separate receive and transmit line control registers.  Set
744		this variable to initialize the extra register.
745
746		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
747
748		On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
749		boot loader that has already initialized the UART.  Define this
750		variable to flush the UART at init time.
751
752		CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
753
754		Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
755		Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
756
757- Console Interface:
758		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
759		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
760		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
761		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
762
763		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
764		port routines must be defined elsewhere
765		(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
766
767		CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
768		Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
769		defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
770			VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN	graphic memory organisation
771						(default big endian)
772			VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL	graphic chip supports
773						rectangle fill
774						(cf. smiLynxEM)
775			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
776						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
777			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
778						(cols=pitch)
779			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS	visible pixel rows
780			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE	bytes per pixel
781			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
782						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
783			VIDEO_FB_ADRS		framebuffer address
784			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
785						(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
786			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
787						(i.e. i8042_tstc)
788			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
789						(i.e. i8042_getc)
790			CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR	cursor drawing on/off
791						(requires blink timer
792						cf. i8042.c)
793			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
794			CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME	display time/date info in
795						upper right corner
796						(requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
797			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO	display Linux logo in
798						upper left corner
799			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO	use bmp_logo.h instead of
800						linux_logo.h for logo.
801						Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
802			CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
803						additional board info beside
804						the logo
805
806		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
807		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
808		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
809
810		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
811		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
812		environment 'console=serial'.
813
814		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
815		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
816		the "silent" environment variable. See
817		doc/README.silent for more information.
818
819		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
820			is 0x00.
821		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
822			is 0xa0.
823
824- Console Baudrate:
825		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
826		Select one of the baudrates listed in
827		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
828		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
829
830- Console Rx buffer length
831		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
832		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
833		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
834		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
835		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
836		the SMC.
837
838- Pre-Console Buffer:
839		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
840		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
841		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
842		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
843		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
844		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
845		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
846		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
847		earlier bytes are discarded.
848
849		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
850		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
851
852- Safe printf() functions
853		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
854		the printf() functions. These are defined in
855		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
856		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
857		If this option is not given then these functions will
858		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
859		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
860
861- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
862		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
863		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
864		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
865		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
866
867		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
868		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
869		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
870		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
871		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
872		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
873		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
874		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
875		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
876		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
877		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
878		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
879
880- Autoboot Command:
881		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
882		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
883		define a command string that is automatically executed
884		when no character is read on the console interface
885		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
886
887		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
888		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
889		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
890		environment value "bootargs".
891
892		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
893		The value of these goes into the environment as
894		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
895		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
896		RAM and NFS.
897
898- Bootcount:
899		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
900		Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
901		cycle, see:
902		http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
903
904		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
905		If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
906		"bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
907		saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
908		"upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
909		0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
910		1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
911		So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
912		and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
913
914- Pre-Boot Commands:
915		CONFIG_PREBOOT
916
917		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
918		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
919		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
920		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
921		entering interactive mode.
922
923		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
924		automatically generated or modified. For an example
925		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
926		modified when the user holds down a certain
927		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
928		booting the systems
929
930- Serial Download Echo Mode:
931		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
932		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
933		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
934		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
935		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
936		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
937		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
938
939- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
940		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
941		Select one of the baudrates listed in
942		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
943
944- Monitor Functions:
945		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
946		from the build by using the #include files
947		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
948		commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
949		and augmenting with additional #define's
950		for wanted commands.
951
952		The default command configuration includes all commands
953		except those marked below with a "*".

1062		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
1063		support you can write:
1064
1065		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
1066		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1067
1068	Other Commands:
1069		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1070
1071	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1072		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1073		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1074		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1075		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1076		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1077		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1078		initial stack and some data.
1079
1080
1081		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1082
1083- Regular expression support:
1084		CONFIG_REGEX
1085		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1086		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1087		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1088		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1089
1090- Device tree:
1091		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1092		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1093		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1094		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1095		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1096		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1097
1098		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1099		be done using one of the two options below:
1100
1101		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1102		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1103		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1104		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1105		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1106		the global data structure as gd->blob.
1107
1108		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1109		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1110		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1111		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1112
1113			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1114
1115		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1116		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1117		still use the individual files if you need something more
1118		exotic.
1119
1120- Watchdog:
1121		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1122		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1123		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1124		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1125		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1126		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
1127		available, then no further board specific code should
1128		be needed to use it.
1129
1130		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1131		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1132		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1133		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1134
1135- U-Boot Version:
1136		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1137		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1138		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1139		version as printed by the "version" command.
1140		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1141		next reset.
1142
1143- Real-Time Clock:
1144
1145		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1146		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1147		following options:
1148
1149		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1150		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1151		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1152		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1153		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1154		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1155		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1156		CONFIG_RTC_DS1339	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
1157		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1158		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1159		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1160		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1161		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
1162					  RV3029 RTC.
1163
1164		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1165		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1166
1167- GPIO Support:
1168		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1169
1170		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1171		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1172		pins supported by a particular chip.
1173
1174		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1175		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1176
1177- I/O tracing:
1178		When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
1179		accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
1180		to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
1181		useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
1182		the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
1183		change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
1184		add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
1185		to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
1186
1187		Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
1188		Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
1189		still continue to operate.
1190
1191			iotrace is enabled
1192			Start:  10000000	(buffer start address)
1193			Size:   00010000	(buffer size)
1194			Offset: 00000120	(current buffer offset)
1195			Output: 10000120	(start + offset)
1196			Count:  00000018	(number of trace records)
1197			CRC32:  9526fb66	(CRC32 of all trace records)
1198
1199- Timestamp Support:
1200
1201		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1202		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
1203		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1204		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1205
1206- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1207		Zero or more of the following:
1208		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
1209		CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION   MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1210				       Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1211		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1212		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1213				       bootloader.  Note 2TB partition limit; see
1214				       disk/part_efi.c
1215		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
1216
1217		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1218		CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1219		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1220
1221- IDE Reset method:
1222		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1223		board configurations files but used nowhere!
1224
1225		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1226		be performed by calling the function
1227			ide_set_reset(int reset)
1228		which has to be defined in a board specific file
1229
1230- ATAPI Support:
1231		CONFIG_ATAPI
1232
1233		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1234
1235- LBA48 Support
1236		CONFIG_LBA48
1237
1238		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1239		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1240		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1241		support disks up to 2.1TB.
1242
1243		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1244			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1245			Default is 32bit.
1246
1247- SCSI Support:
1248		At the moment only there is only support for the
1249		SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
1250		CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
1251
1252		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1253		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1254		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1255		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1256		devices.
1257		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1258
1259		The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
1260		SCSI devices found during the last scan.
1261
1262- NETWORK Support (PCI):
1263		CONFIG_E1000
1264		Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips.
1265
1266		CONFIG_E1000_SPI
1267		Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x.

1270
1271		CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC
1272		Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for

1435		storage devices.
1436		Note:
1437		Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
1438		(TEAC FD-05PUB).

1452
1453		CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
1454		txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
1455
1456- USB Device:
1457		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1458		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1459		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1460		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1461		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1462		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1463		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1464		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1465		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1466		a Linux host by
1467		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1468		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1469		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1470		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1471
1472			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1473			Define this to build a UDC device
1474

1476			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1477			talk to the UDC device
1478
1479			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1480			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1481			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1482			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1483			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1484			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1485			speed.
1486
1487			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1488			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1489			be set to usbtty.
1490
1491			mpc8xx:
1492				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH

1497				Derive USB clock from brgclk
1498				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
1499
1500		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1501		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1502		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1503		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1504		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1505		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1506
1507			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1508			Define this string as the name of your company for
1509			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1510
1511			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1512			Define this string as the name of your product
1513			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1514
1515			CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1516			Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1517			Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1518			to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1519			- CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1520
1521			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1522			Define this as the unique Product ID
1523			for your device
1524			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1525
1526- ULPI Layer Support:
1527		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1528		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1529		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1530		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1531		viewport is supported.
1532		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1533		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1534		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1535		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1536		the appropriate value in Hz.
1537
1538- MMC Support:
1539		The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1540		enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1541		accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1542		to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1543		enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1544		the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1545
1546		CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1547		Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1548
1549			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
1550			Define the base address of MMCIF registers
1551
1552			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK

1564
1565- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support:
1566		CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION
1567		This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1568
1569		CONFIG_CMD_DFU
1570		This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have
1571		U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB.  This command
1572		requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1573		set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1574
1575		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1576		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1577
1578		CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1579		This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1580
1581		CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1582		This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1583		Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1584		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1585		one that would help mostly the developer.
1586
1587		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1588		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1589		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1590		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1591		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1592
1593		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1594		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1595		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1596		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1597		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1598		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1599
1600		DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1601		Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1602		host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1603		a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1604
1605		DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1606		Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1607		entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1608		sending again an USB request to the device.
1609
1610- USB Device Android Fastboot support:
1611		CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT
1612		This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android
1613		fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB
1614		protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control
1615		used on Android devices.
1616		See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information.
1617
1618		CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE
1619		This enables support for booting images which use the Android
1620		image format header.
1621
1622		CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR
1623		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1624		downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for
1625		downloaded images.
1626
1627		CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE
1628		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1629		downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a
1630		platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot.
1631
1632		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH
1633		The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing
1634		the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define
1635		this to enable the "fastboot flash" command.
1636
1637		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV
1638		The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information
1639		regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to
1640		the eMMC device that fastboot should use to store the image.
1641
1642- Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1643		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
1644		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
1645		Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1646
1647		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1648		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1649		Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1650
1651		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
1652		Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1653		function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1654
1655		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1656		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1657		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1658		have not defined a custom partition
1659
1660- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1661		CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1662
1663		Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1664		file in FAT formatted partition.
1665
1666		This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1667		user to write files to FAT.
1668
1669CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1670		CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1671
1672		Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1673		filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
1674		and cbfsload.
1675
1676- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size:
1677		CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE
1678
1679		Define the max cluster size for fat operations else
1680		a default value of 65536 will be defined.
1681
1682- Keyboard Support:
1683		CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
1684
1685		Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
1686		support
1687
1688		CONFIG_I8042_KBD
1689		Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
1690		GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
1691		Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
1692		for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
1693
1694		CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB
1695		Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface.
1696		This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller
1697		which provides key scans on request.
1698
1699- Video support:
1700		CONFIG_VIDEO
1701
1702		Define this to enable video support (for output to
1703		video).
1704
1705		CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
1706
1707		Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
1708
1709		CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1710		Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1711		video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1712		(1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1713		assumed.
1714
1715		For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1716		selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1717		are possible:
1718		- "videomode=num"   'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
1719		Following standard modes are supported	(* is default):
1720
1721		      Colors	640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
1722		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1723		      8 bits |	0x301*	0x303	 0x305	  0x161	    0x307
1724		     15 bits |	0x310	0x313	 0x316	  0x162	    0x319
1725		     16 bits |	0x311	0x314	 0x317	  0x163	    0x31A
1726		     24 bits |	0x312	0x315	 0x318	    ?	    0x31B
1727		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1728		(i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1729
1730		- "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1731		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1732
1733
1734		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1735		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1736		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1737		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1738
1739		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1740		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1741		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1742		support, and should also define these other macros:
1743
1744			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1745			CONFIG_VIDEO
1746			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1747			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1748			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1749			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1750			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1751			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1752
1753		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1754		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1755		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1756		description of this variable.
1757
1758		CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
1759
1760		Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1761		are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1762		driver.
1763
1764
1765- Keyboard Support:
1766		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1767
1768		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1769		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1770		defined in your board-specific files.
1771		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1772
1773- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1774
1775		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1776		display); also select one of the supported displays
1777		by defining one of these:
1778
1779		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1780
1781			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1782
1783		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1784
1785			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1786
1787		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1788
1789			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1790			Active, color, single scan.
1791
1792		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1793
1794			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1795			Active, color, single scan.
1796
1797		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1798
1799			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1800			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1801
1802		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1803
1804			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1805			Active, color, single scan.
1806
1807		CONFIG_HLD1045
1808
1809			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1810			Active, color, single scan.
1811
1812		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1813
1814			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1815			or
1816			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1817			or
1818			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1819
1820			320x240. Black & white.
1821
1822		Normally display is black on white background; define
1823		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1824
1825		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1826
1827		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1828		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1829		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1830		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1831		a per-section basis.
1832
1833		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1834
1835		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1836		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1837		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1838		is slow.
1839
1840		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1841
1842		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1843
1844		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1845
1846		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1847		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1848
1849- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1850
1851		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1852		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1853		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1854		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1855		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1856		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1857		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1858		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1859
1860		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1861
1862		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1863		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1864		(see README.displaying-bmps).
1865		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1866		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1867		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1868		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1869		there is no need to set this option.
1870
1871		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1872
1873		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1874		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1875		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1876		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1877		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1878		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1879
1880		Example:
1881		setenv splashpos m,m
1882			=> image at center of screen
1883
1884		setenv splashpos 30,20
1885			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1886
1887		setenv splashpos -10,m
1888			=> vertically centered image
1889			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1890
1891- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1892
1893		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1894		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1895		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1896
1897- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1898
1899		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1900		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1901		bmp command.
1902
1903- Do compresssing for memory range:
1904		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1905
1906		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1907		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1908
1909- Compression support:
1910		CONFIG_GZIP
1911
1912		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1913
1914		CONFIG_BZIP2
1915
1916		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1917		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1918		compressed images are supported.
1919
1920		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1921		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1922		be at least 4MB.
1923
1924		CONFIG_LZMA
1925
1926		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1927		images is included.
1928
1929		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1930		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1931		formula:
1932
1933			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1934
1935		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1936		and Literal pos bits.
1937
1938		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1939		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1940		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1941		a very small buffer.
1942
1943		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1944		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1945		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1946
1947		CONFIG_LZO
1948
1949		If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
1950		is included.
1951
1952- MII/PHY support:
1953		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1954
1955		The address of PHY on MII bus.
1956
1957		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1958
1959		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1960
1961		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
1962
1963		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1964		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1965
1966		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1967
1968		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1969		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1970		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1971		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1972
1973		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1974
1975		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1976		command issued before MII status register can be read
1977
1978- Ethernet address:
1979		CONFIG_ETHADDR
1980		CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
1981		CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
1982		CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
1983		CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
1984		CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
1985
1986		Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1987		for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
1988		is not determined automatically.
1989
1990- IP address:
1991		CONFIG_IPADDR
1992
1993		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1994		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1995		determined through e.g. bootp.
1996		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
1997
1998- Server IP address:
1999		CONFIG_SERVERIP
2000
2001		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
2002		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
2003		(Environment variable "serverip")
2004
2005		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
2006
2007		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
2008		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
2009
2010- Gateway IP address:
2011		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
2012
2013		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
2014		default router where packets to other networks are
2015		sent to.
2016		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
2017
2018- Subnet mask:
2019		CONFIG_NETMASK
2020
2021		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
2022		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
2023		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
2024		forwarded through a router.
2025		(Environment variable "netmask")
2026
2027- Multicast TFTP Mode:
2028		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
2029
2030		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
2031		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
2032		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
2033		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
2034		multicast group.
2035
2036- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
2037		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
2038
2039		If you have many targets in a network that try to
2040		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
2041		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
2042		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
2043		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
2044		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
2045		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
2046		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
2047		following delays are inserted then:
2048
2049		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
2050		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
2051		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
2052		4th and following
2053		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
2054
2055		CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE
2056
2057		BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The
2058		server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and
2059		U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of
2060		an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses
2061		aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP
2062		ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to
2063		respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it
2064		takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that
2065		time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order
2066		to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these
2067		retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of
2068		IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this
2069		cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding
2070		requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers
2071		from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency.
2072
2073- DHCP Advanced Options:
2074		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
2075		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
2076
2077		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
2078		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
2079		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
2080		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
2081		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
2082		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
2083		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2084		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
2085		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
2086		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
2087		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
2088		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
2089		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
2090
2091		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
2092		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
2093
2094		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
2095		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
2096		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
2097		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
2098		is not available.
2099
2100		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
2101		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
2102		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
2103		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
2104		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
2105		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
2106		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2107		is defined.
2108
2109		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
2110		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
2111		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
2112		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
2113		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
2114		option 12 to the DHCP server.
2115
2116		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
2117
2118		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
2119		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
2120		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
2121		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
2122		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
2123		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
2124		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
2125		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
2126		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
2127		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
2128		this delay.
2129
2130 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
2131		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
2132		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
2133		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
2134		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
2135
2136		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
2137
2138 - CDP Options:
2139		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
2140
2141		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
2142
2143		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
2144
2145		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
2146		of the device.
2147
2148		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
2149
2150		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
2151		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
2152		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
2153
2154		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
2155
2156		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
2157		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
2158
2159		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
2160
2161		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
2162
2163		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
2164
2165		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
2166
2167		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
2168
2169		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
2170
2171		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
2172
2173		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
2174		device in .1 of milliwatts.
2175
2176		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
2177
2178		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
2179
2180- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2181
2182		Several configurations allow to display the current
2183		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2184		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2185		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2186		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2187		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2188		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2189		feature in U-Boot.
2190
2191		Additional options:
2192
2193		CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2194		The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2195		In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2196		status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2197		to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2198
2199		CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2200		Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2201		case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2202		GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2203		In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2204		with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2205
2206- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2207
2208		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
2209		on those systems that support this (optional)
2210		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2211
2212- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
2213
2214		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
2215		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
2216		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
2217		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
2218		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
2219		interface.

2339
2340		additional defines:
2341
2342		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2343		Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
2344		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2345		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2346		omit this define.
2347
2348		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2349		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2350		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2351		omit this define.
2352
2353		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2354		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2355		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2356		define.
2357
2358		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2359		hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2360		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2361		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2362		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2363
2364		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2365					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2366					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2367					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2368					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2369					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2370					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2371					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \
2372					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2373					}
2374
2375		which defines
2376			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
2377			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
2378			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2
2379			bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3
2380			bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4

2382			bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux
2383			bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1
2384			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2385
2386		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2387
2388- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2389
2390		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2391		provides the following compelling advantages:
2392
2393		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2394		- approved multibus support
2395		- better i2c mux support
2396
2397		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2398
2399		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2400		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2401		for the selected CPU.
2402
2403		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2404		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2405		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2406		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2407		command line interface.
2408
2409		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2410
2411		There are several other quantities that must also be
2412		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2413
2414		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2415		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2416		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2417		the CPU's i2c node address).
2418
2419		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2420		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2421		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2422		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2423		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2424
2425		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2426
2427		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2428		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2429		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2430		commands until the slave device responds.
2431
2432		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2433
2434		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2435		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2436		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2437
2438		I2C_INIT
2439
2440		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2441		controller or configure ports.
2442
2443		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2444
2445		I2C_PORT
2446
2447		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2448		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2449		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2450
2451		I2C_ACTIVE
2452
2453		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2454		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2455		define can be null.
2456
2457		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2458
2459		I2C_TRISTATE
2460
2461		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2462		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2463		define can be null.
2464
2465		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2466
2467		I2C_READ
2468
2469		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2470		false if it is low.
2471
2472		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2473
2474		I2C_SDA(bit)
2475
2476		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2477		is false, it clears it (low).
2478
2479		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2480			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2481			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2482
2483		I2C_SCL(bit)
2484
2485		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2486		is false, it clears it (low).
2487
2488		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2489			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2490			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2491
2492		I2C_DELAY
2493
2494		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2495		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2496		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2497		like:
2498
2499		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2500
2501		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2502
2503		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2504		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2505		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2506		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2507
2508		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2509		the generic GPIO functions.
2510
2511		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2512
2513		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2514		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2515		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2516		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2517		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2518		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2519		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2520		is run early in the boot sequence.
2521
2522		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2523
2524		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2525		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2526		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2527		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2528		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2529		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2530		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2531		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2532
2533		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2534
2535		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2536		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2537		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2538
2539		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2540
2541		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2542		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2543		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2544		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2545
2546		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2547
2548		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2549		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2550		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2551		a 1D array of device addresses
2552
2553		e.g.
2554			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2555			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2556
2557		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2558
2559			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2560			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2561
2562		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2563
2564		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2565
2566		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2567		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2568
2569		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2570
2571		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2572		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2573
2574		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2575
2576		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2577		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2578
2579		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2580
2581		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2582		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2583		specified DTT device.
2584
2585		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2586
2587		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2588		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2589		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2590		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2591		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2592		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2593		the other.
2594
2595- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2596
2597		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2598		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2599		D/As on the SACSng board)
2600
2601		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2602
2603		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2604		only SH7757 is supported.
2605
2606		CONFIG_SPI_X
2607
2608		Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2609		(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2610
2611		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2612
2613		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2614		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2615		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2616		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2617		defined, the board configuration must define several
2618		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2619		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2620
2621		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2622
2623		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2624		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2625		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2626		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2627		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2628
2629		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2630
2631		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2632		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2633
2634		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT
2635		Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed.
2636		default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100)     /* 10 ms */
2637
2638- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2639
2640		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2641
2642		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2643
2644		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2645		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2646
2647		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2648
2649		Enables support for FPGA family.
2650		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2651
2652		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2653
2654		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2655
2656		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK
2657
2658		Enable support for fpga loadmk command
2659
2660		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP
2661
2662		Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream
2663
2664		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP
2665
2666		Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream
2667		(Xilinx only)
2668
2669		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2670
2671		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2672
2673		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2674
2675		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2676		status by the configuration function. This option
2677		will require a board or device specific function to
2678		be written.
2679
2680		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2681
2682		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2683		configuration driver.
2684
2685		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2686		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2687
2688		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2689
2690		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2691		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2692		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2693		indicated a CRC error).
2694
2695		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2696
2697		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2698		after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2699		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2700		ms.
2701
2702		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2703
2704		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2705		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2706
2707		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2708
2709		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2710		200 ms.
2711
2712- Configuration Management:
2713		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2714
2715		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2716		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2717
2718- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2719
2720		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2721		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2722		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2723		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2724		protects these variables from casual modification by
2725		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2726		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2727		change this behaviour:
2728
2729		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2730		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2731		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2732		these parameters.
2733
2734		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2735		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2736		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2737		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2738		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2739		read-only.]
2740
2741		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2742		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2743		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2744		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2745
2746- Protected RAM:
2747		CONFIG_PRAM
2748
2749		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2750		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2751		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2752		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2753		this default value by defining an environment
2754		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2755		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2756		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2757		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2758		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2759		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2760		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2761
2762			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2763			saveenv
2764
2765		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2766		either, which results in a memory region that will
2767		not be affected by reboots.
2768
2769		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2770		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2771		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2772		following board configurations are known to be
2773		"pRAM-clean":
2774
2775			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2776			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2777			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2778
2779- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2780		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2781		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2782		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2783		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2784		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2785		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2786
2787- Error Recovery:
2788		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2789
2790		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2791		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2792		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2793		system where you want the system to reboot
2794		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2795		useful during development since you can try to debug
2796		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2797
2798		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2799
2800		This variable defines the number of retries for
2801		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2802		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2803		default value of 5 is used.
2804
2805		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2806
2807		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2808
2809		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2810
2811		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2812		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2813		try longer timeout such as
2814		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2815
2816- Command Interpreter:
2817		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2818
2819		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2820
2821		Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2822		for the "hush" shell.
2823
2824
2825		CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2826
2827		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2828		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2829		powerful command line syntax like
2830		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2831		constructs ("shell scripts").
2832
2833		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2834		with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2835
2836
2837		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2838
2839		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2840		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2841		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2842
2843	Note:
2844
2845		In the current implementation, the local variables
2846		space and global environment variables space are
2847		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2848		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2849		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2850		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2851		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2852
2853		Global environment variables are those you use
2854		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2855		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2856		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2857
2858		To store commands and special characters in a
2859		variable, please use double quotation marks
2860		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2861		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2862		symbols.
2863
2864- Commandline Editing and History:
2865		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2866
2867		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2868		commandline input operations
2869
2870- Default Environment:
2871		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2872
2873		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2874		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2875		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2876
2877		For example, place something like this in your
2878		board's config file:
2879
2880		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2881			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2882			"myvar2=value2\0"
2883
2884		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2885		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2886		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2887		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2888		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2889		You better know what you are doing here.
2890
2891		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2892		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2893		the environment like the "source" command or the
2894		boot command first.
2895
2896		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2897
2898		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2899		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2900		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2901
2902		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2903
2904		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2905		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2906		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2907		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2908		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2909
2910		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2911
2912		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2913		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2914		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2915
2916		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2917
2918		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2919		intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2920		that so that the environment is not available until
2921		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2922		this is instead controlled by the value of
2923		/config/load-environment.
2924
2925- DataFlash Support:
2926		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2927
2928		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2929		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2930		commands cp, md...
2931
2932- Serial Flash support
2933		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2934
2935		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2936		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2937
2938		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2939		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2940		commands.
2941
2942		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2943		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2944		flash is present on the system.
2945
2946		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2947		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2948		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2949		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2950
2951		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2952
2953		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2954		test ('sf test').
2955
2956		CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR		Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2957
2958		Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2959		support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2960
2961		CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH		Dual flash memories
2962
2963		Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
2964		memories can be connected with a given cs line.
2965		currently Xilinx Zynq qspi support these type of connections.
2966
2967		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_ST_ENABLE_WP_PIN
2968		enable the W#/Vpp signal to disable writing to the status
2969		register on ST MICRON flashes like the N25Q128.
2970		The status register write enable/disable bit, combined with
2971		the W#/VPP signal provides hardware data protection for the
2972		device as follows: When the enable/disable bit is set to 1,
2973		and the W#/VPP signal is driven LOW, the status register
2974		nonvolatile bits become read-only and the WRITE STATUS REGISTER
2975		operation will not execute. The only way to exit this
2976		hardware-protected mode is to drive W#/VPP HIGH.
2977
2978- SystemACE Support:
2979		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2980
2981		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2982		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2983		of the chip must also be defined in the
2984		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2985
2986		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2987		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2988
2989		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2990		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2991
2992- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2993		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2994
2995		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2996		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2997		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2998		number generator is used.
2999
3000		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
3001		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
3002		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
3003
3004		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
3005		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
3006		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
3007		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
3008		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
3009		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
3010		but sometimes that is not allowed.
3011
3012- Hashing support:
3013		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
3014
3015		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
3016		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
3017
3018		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
3019
3020		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
3021		size a little.
3022
3023		CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
3024		CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
3025
3026		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
3027		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
3028
3029- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
3030		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
3031		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
3032		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
3033
3034		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
3035		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
3036		a boot from specific media.
3037
3038		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
3039		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
3040		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
3041		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
3042		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
3043
3044- Signing support:
3045		CONFIG_RSA
3046
3047		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
3048		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
3049
3050		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
3051		option.
3052
3053- bootcount support:
3054		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
3055
3056		This enables the bootcounter support, see:
3057		http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
3058
3059		CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
3060		enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
3061		CONFIG_BLACKFIN
3062		enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
3063		CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
3064		enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
3065		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
3066		enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
3067		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
3068		enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
3069			CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
3070			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
3071						    the bootcounter.
3072			CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
3073
3074- Show boot progress:
3075		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
3076
3077		Defining this option allows to add some board-
3078		specific code (calling a user-provided function
3079		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
3080		the system's boot progress on some display (for
3081		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
3082		the following checkpoints are implemented:
3083
3084- Detailed boot stage timing
3085		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
3086		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
3087		of the boot process.
3088
3089		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
3090		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
3091		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
3092		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
3093		the limit, recording will stop.
3094
3095		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
3096		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
3097
3098		Timer summary in microseconds:
3099		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
3100			  0          0  reset
3101		  3,575,678  3,575,678  board_init_f start
3102		  3,575,695         17  arch_cpu_init A9
3103		  3,575,777         82  arch_cpu_init done
3104		  3,659,598     83,821  board_init_r start
3105		  3,910,375    250,777  main_loop
3106		 29,916,167 26,005,792  bootm_start
3107		 30,361,327    445,160  start_kernel
3108
3109		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
3110		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
3111		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
3112
3113		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
3114		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
3115		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
3116		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
3117		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
3118		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
3119		For example:
3120
3121		bootstage {
3122			154 {
3123				name = "board_init_f";
3124				mark = <3575678>;
3125			};
3126			170 {
3127				name = "lcd";
3128				accum = <33482>;
3129			};
3130		};
3131
3132		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

3286
3287- legacy image format:
3288		CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3289		enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
3290
3291		Default:
3292		enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
3293
3294		CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
3295		disable the legacy image format
3296
3297		This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
3298		enabled per default for backward compatibility.
3299
3300- FIT image support:
3301		CONFIG_FIT
3302		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
3303
3304		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3305		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3306		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3307		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3308		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3309		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3310
3311		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
3312		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
3313		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See
3314		doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
3315
3316		WARNING: When relying on signed FIT images with required
3317		signature check the legacy image format is default
3318		disabled. If a board need legacy image format support
3319		enable this through CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3320
3321		CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256
3322		Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size.
3323		For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled
3324		with this option.
3325
3326- Standalone program support:
3327		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3328
3329		This option defines a board specific value for the
3330		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
3331		overwriting the architecture dependent default
3332		settings.
3333
3334- Frame Buffer Address:
3335		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
3336
3337		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3338		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
3339		when using a graphics controller has separate video
3340		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3341		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3342		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3343		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3344		configured panel size.
3345
3346		Please see board_init_f function.
3347
3348- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
3349		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
3350		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
3351		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
3352
3353		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
3354		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
3355
3356- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
3357		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
3358
3359		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
3360		Needed for mtdparts command support.
3361
3362		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
3363
3364		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
3365		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
3366
3367		CONFIG_MTD_NAND_VERIFY_WRITE
3368		verify if the written data is correct reread.
3369
3370- UBI support
3371		CONFIG_CMD_UBI
3372
3373		Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3374		with the UBI flash translation layer
3375
3376		Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3377
3378		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3379
3380		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
3381		warnings and errors enabled.
3382
3383
3384		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
3385		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
3386		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
3387		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
3388		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
3389		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
3390
3391		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
3392		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
3393		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
3394		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
3395		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
3396
3397		default: 4096
3398
3399		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
3400		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
3401		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
3402		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
3403		flash), this value is ignored.
3404
3405		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
3406		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
3407		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
3408		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
3409		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
3410		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
3411
3412		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
3413		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
3414		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
3415		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
3416		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
3417		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
3418		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
3419		partition.
3420
3421		default: 20
3422
3423		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
3424		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
3425		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
3426		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
3427		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
3428		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
3429		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
3430		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
3431		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
3432		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
3433		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
3434		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
3435
3436		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
3437		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
3438		without a fastmap.
3439		default: 0
3440
3441- UBIFS support
3442		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3443
3444		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3445		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3446
3447		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3448
3449		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3450

3567		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
3568		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3569		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3570		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).

3604		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
3605		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
3606		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
3607		to read U-Boot
3608
3609		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT
3610		Add support NAND boot
3611
3612		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
3613		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from
3614
3615		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST

3622		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
3623
3624		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
3625		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
3626		data. This is used for example on davinci plattforms.
3627
3628		CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND
3629		Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the
3630		ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present.
3631
3632		CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT

3653		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3654
3655		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3656		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3657		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3658		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3659		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3660		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3661
3662		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3663		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3664		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3665		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3666
3667		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3668		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3669		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3670		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3671		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3672
3673- TPL framework
3674		CONFIG_TPL
3675		Enable building of TPL globally.
3676
3677		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
3678		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
3679		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3680		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3681		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3682		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3683
3684Modem Support:
3685--------------
3686
3687[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3688
3689- Modem support enable:
3690		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3691
3692- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3693		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3694
3695- Modem debug support:
3696		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3697
3698		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3699		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3700
3701- Interrupt support (PPC):
3702
3703		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3704		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3705		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3706		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3707		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3708		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3709		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3710		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3711		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3712		general timer_interrupt().
3713
3714- General:
3715
3716		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3717		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3718		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3719		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3720		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3721		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3722		initialization.
3723
3724		If there are no modem init strings in the
3725		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3726		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3727		suppressed, though.
3728
3729		See also: doc/README.Modem
3730
3731Board initialization settings:
3732------------------------------
3733
3734During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3735to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3736before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3737following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3738architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3739typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3740
3741- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3742- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3743- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3744- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3745
3746Configuration Settings:
3747-----------------------
3748
3749- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
3750		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
3751
3752- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3753		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3754
3755- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3756		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3757
3758- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3759		prompt for user input.
3760
3761- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3762
3763- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3764
3765- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3766
3767- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3768		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3769		booted
3770
3771- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3772		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3773
3774- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3775		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3776
3777- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3778		If the board specific function
3779			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3780		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3781		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3782
3783- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3784		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3785
3786- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3787		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3788
3789- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3790		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3791		simple memory test.
3792
3793- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3794		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3795
3796- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3797		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3798		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3799
3800- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3801		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3802		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3803		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3804		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3805		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3806		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3807		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3808		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3809		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3810
3811		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3812		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3813		be touched.
3814
3815		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3816		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3817		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3818		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3819		problems.
3820
3821- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3822		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3823
3824- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3825		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3826
3827- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3828		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3829		Cogent motherboard)
3830
3831- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3832		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3833
3834- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3835		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3836		make config files to be same as the text base address
3837		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3838		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3839
3840- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3841		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3842		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3843		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3844		flash sector.
3845
3846- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3847		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3848
3849- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3850		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3851		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3852		will become available before relocation. The address is just
3853		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3854		space.
3855
3856		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3857		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3858		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3859		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotton) when
3860		U-Boot relocates itself.
3861
3862		Pre-relocation malloc() is only supported on ARM and sandbox
3863		at present but is fairly easy to enable for other archs.
3864
3865- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3866		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3867		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3868		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3869		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3870
3871- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3872		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3873		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3874		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3875		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3876		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3877		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3878		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3879		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3880		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3881		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3882
3883- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3884		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3885		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3886		is enabled.
3887
3888- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3889		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3890		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3891
3892- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3893		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3894		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3895
3896- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3897		Max number of Flash memory banks
3898
3899- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3900		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3901
3902- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3903		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3904
3905- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3906		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3907
3908- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3909		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3910
3911- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3912		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3913
3914- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3915		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3916		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3917
3918- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3919
3920		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3921		without this option such a download has to be
3922		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3923		copy from RAM to flash.
3924
3925		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3926		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3927		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3928		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3929		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3930
3931- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3932		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3933		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3934
3935- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3936		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3937		in the drivers directory
3938
3939- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3940		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3941		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3942		to the MTD layer.
3943
3944- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3945		Use buffered writes to flash.
3946
3947- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3948		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3949		write commands.
3950
3951- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3952		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3953		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3954		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3955		optionally available.
3956
3957- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3958		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3959		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3960		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3961
3962- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3963		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3964		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3965		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3966		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3967		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3968		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3969		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3970
3971- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3972		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3973		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3974		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3975		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3976		on high Ethernet traffic.
3977		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3978
3979- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3980
3981	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3982	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3983	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3984	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3985	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3986
3987- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3988- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3989	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3990	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3991	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3992	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3993
3994	The format of the list is:
3995		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3996		access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
3997		attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
3998		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3999		list = entry[,list]
4000
4001	The type attributes are:
4002		s - String (default)
4003		d - Decimal
4004		x - Hexadecimal
4005		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
4006		i - IP address
4007		m - MAC address
4008
4009	The access attributes are:
4010		a - Any (default)
4011		r - Read-only
4012		o - Write-once
4013		c - Change-default
4014
4015	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4016		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
4017		envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4018
4019	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4020		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
4021		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
4022		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
4023		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
4024		".flags" variable.
4025
4026- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
4027	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
4028	access flags.
4029
4030- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
4031	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
4032	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
4033	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
4034	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
4035	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
4036	must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
4037	its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
4038	your board please report the problem and send patches!
4039
4040- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
4041	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
4042	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
4043	the value can be calulated on a given board.
4044
4045The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
4046of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
4047following configurations:
4048
4049- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
4050
4051	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
4052	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
4053
4054- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
4055
4056	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
4057
4058	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
4059	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
4060	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
4061	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
4062	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
4063	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
4064	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
4065	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
4066	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
4067	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
4068	   between U-Boot and the environment.
4069
4070	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4071
4072	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
4073	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
4074	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
4075	   for this sector is given here.
4076
4077	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
4078
4079	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4080
4081	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
4082	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
4083	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
4084
4085	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4086
4087	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
4088
4089
4090	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
4091	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
4092	   the environment.
4093
4094	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4095
4096	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
4097	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
4098	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
4099	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
4100
4101	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
4102	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
4103	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
4104	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
4105	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
4106	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
4107	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
4108	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
4109	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
4110
4111	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
4112	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
4113
4114	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
4115	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
4116	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
4117	   a "saveenv" operation.
4118
4119BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
4120source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
4121accordingly!
4122
4123
4124- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
4125
4126	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
4127	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
4128	environment.
4129
4130	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4131	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4132
4133	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
4134	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
4135	  can just be read and written to, without any special
4136	  provision.
4137
4138BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
4139in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
4140console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
4141U-Boot will hang.
4142
4143Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
4144environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
4145keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
4146to save the current settings.
4147
4148
4149- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
4150
4151	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
4152	device and a driver for it.
4153
4154	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4155	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4156
4157	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4158	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
4159
4160	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
4161	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
4162	  The default address is zero.
4163
4164	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
4165	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
4166	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
4167	  would require six bits.
4168
4169	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
4170	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
4171	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
4172
4173	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
4174	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
4175	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
4176
4177	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
4178	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
4179	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
4180	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
4181	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
4182	  byte chips.
4183
4184	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
4185	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
4186	  in the chip address.
4187
4188	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
4189	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
4190
4191	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
4192	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
4193	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
4194
4195	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
4196	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
4197	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
4198	  EEPROM. For example:
4199
4200	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
4201
4202	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
4203	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
4204
4205- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
4206
4207	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
4208	want to use for the environment.
4209
4210	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4211	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4212	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4213
4214	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
4215	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
4216	  at the specified address.
4217
4218- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH:
4219
4220	Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you
4221	want to use for the environment.
4222
4223	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4224	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4225
4226	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4227	  environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4228	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4229
4230	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4231
4232	  Define the SPI flash's sector size.
4233
4234	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4235
4236	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4237	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4238	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4239	  during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4240	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4241
4242	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional):
4243	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional):
4244
4245	  Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0.
4246
4247	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional):
4248
4249	  Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz.
4250
4251	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional):
4252
4253	  Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3.
4254
4255- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
4256
4257	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
4258	want to use for the local device's environment.
4259
4260	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4261	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4262
4263	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
4264	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
4265	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
4266	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
4267
4268BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
4269"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
4270environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
4271but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
4272
4273- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
4274
4275	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
4276	for the environment.
4277
4278	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4279	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4280
4281	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4282	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4283	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4284
4285	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4286
4287	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4288	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4289	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4290	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4291	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4292
4293	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
4294
4295	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
4296	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
4297	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
4298	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
4299	  the range to be avoided.
4300
4301	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
4302
4303	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
4304	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
4305	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
4306	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
4307	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
4308
4309- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
4310
4311	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
4312	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
4313	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4314
4315- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
4316
4317	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
4318	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
4319	accesses, which is important on NAND.
4320
4321	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
4322
4323	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
4324
4325	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
4326
4327	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
4328	  environment in.
4329
4330	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
4331
4332	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
4333	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
4334	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
4335
4336	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
4337	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
4338
4339	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
4340	  when storing the env in UBI.
4341
4342- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT:
4343       Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment.
4344
4345       - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE:
4346
4347         Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.
4348
4349       - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
4350
4351         Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
4352         be as following:
4353
4354           "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1)
4355               - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no
4356                        partition table.
4357               - "D:0": device D.
4358               - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition
4359                              table, or the whole device D if has no partition
4360                              table.
4361               - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
4362                           If none, first valid paratition in device D. If no
4363                           partition table then means device D.
4364
4365       - FAT_ENV_FILE:
4366
4367         It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the
4368         envrionment.
4369
4370       - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE:
4371         This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the envrionment file.
4372
4373- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
4374
4375	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
4376	environment.
4377
4378	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4379
4380	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4381
4382	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4383
4384	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4385	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4386	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4387
4388	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4389	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4390
4391	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4392	  area within the specified MMC device.
4393
4394	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4395	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4396	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4397	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4398	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4399	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4400	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4401
4402	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4403	  MMC sector boundary.
4404
4405	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4406
4407	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4408	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4409	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4410	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4411
4412	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4413	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4414
4415	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4416	  an MMC sector boundary.
4417
4418	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4419
4420	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4421	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4422	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4423
4424- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
4425
4426	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4427	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4428	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4429	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4430	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4431	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4432	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4433
4434Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
4435has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
4436created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
4437until then to read environment variables.
4438
4439The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4440is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4441with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4442necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4443"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4444have any device yet where we could complain.]
4445
4446Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4447the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
4448use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
4449
4450- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
4451		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
4452
4453		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
4454		      also needs to be defined.
4455
4456- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
4457		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
4458
4459- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
4460		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
4461		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
4462		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
4463		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
4464		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
4465
4466- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
4467		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
4468		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
4469		to do this.
4470
4471- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
4472		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
4473		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
4474		present.
4475
4476- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
4477		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
4478		build system checks that the actual size does not
4479		exceed it.
4480
4481Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
4482---------------------------------------------------
4483
4484- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
4485		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
4486
4487- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
4488		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
4489
4490		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4491		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
4492		the IMMR register after a reset.
4493
4494- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4495		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4496		PowerPC SOCs.
4497
4498- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4499		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4500		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4501
4502		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4503		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4504
4505- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4506		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
4507		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
4508		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
4509		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
4510		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
4511		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4512
4513		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4514			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4515
4516- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
4517		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
4518		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
4519		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4520		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4521
4522- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4523		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
4524		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4525		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4526
4527- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4528		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4529		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
4530
4531- Floppy Disk Support:
4532		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
4533
4534		the default drive number (default value 0)
4535
4536		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4537
4538		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4539		(default value 1)
4540
4541		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4542
4543		defines the offset of register from address. It
4544		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4545		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4546
4547		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4548		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4549		default value.
4550
4551		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4552		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4553		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4554		source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
4555		initializations.
4556
4557- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4558		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4559		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4560		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4561		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4562		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4563		is requierd.
4564
4565- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4566		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4567		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4568
4569- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4570
4571		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4572		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4573		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4574		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4575		will become available only after programming the
4576		memory controller and running certain initialization
4577		sequences.
4578
4579		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4580		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4581		- MPC824X: data cache
4582		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4583
4584- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4585
4586		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4587		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4588		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4589		data is located at the end of the available space
4590		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4591		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4592		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4593		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4594
4595	Note:
4596		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4597		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4598		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4599		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4600		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

4647		enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4648		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4]
4649
4650- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK:
4651		Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful,
4652		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4653		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4654
4655- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4656		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4657		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4658		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.
4659		cpm_8260.h.
4660
4661- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4662  CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4668  CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only)
4669		Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
4670
4671- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4672		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4673		required.
4674
4675- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4676		Only scan through and get the devices on the busses.
4677		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4678		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4679		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4680		by coreboot or similar.
4681
4682- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4683		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4684
4685- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
4686		Chip has SRIO or not
4687
4688- CONFIG_SRIO1:
4689		Board has SRIO 1 port available
4690

4692		Board has SRIO 2 port available
4693
4694- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER
4695		Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE
4696
4697- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT:

4703- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE:
4704		Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4705
4706- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
4707		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
4708		a 16 bit bus.
4709		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.

4713
4714- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG

4720		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
4721
4722  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
4723		I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
4724
4725- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
4726		If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
4727		one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
4728		to something your driver can deal with.
4729
4730- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4731		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4732		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
4733		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
4734		header files or board specific files.
4735
4736- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
4737		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4738
4739- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4740		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4741		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4742
4743- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4744		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4745
4746- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4747		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4748		to the given FEC; i. e.
4749			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4750		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4751
4752		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4753
4754- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4755		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4756		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4757
4758- CONFIG_RMII
4759		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4760		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4761		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4762
4763- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4764		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4765		The syntax is:
4766
4767		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4768
4769		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4770		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4771		area should have.
4772
4773- CONFIG_LOOPW
4774		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4775		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4776
4777- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4778		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4779		"md/mw" commands.
4780		Examples:
4781
4782		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4783		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4784
4785		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4786		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4787
4788		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4789		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4790
4791- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4792		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4793		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4794		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4795		relocate itself into RAM.
4796
4797		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4798		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4799		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4800		these initializations itself.
4801
4802- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4803		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4804		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4805		compiling a NAND SPL.
4806
4807- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4808		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4809		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4810		It is loaded by the SPL.
4811
4812- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4813		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4814		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4815		previous 4k of the .text section.
4816
4817- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4818		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4819		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4820		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4821		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4822		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4823		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4824		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4825
4826- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4827  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4828		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4829		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4830		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4831
4832- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4833		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4834		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4835
4836- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4837		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4838
4839		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4840
4841- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4842		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4843
4844- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
4845		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
4846		driver that uses this:
4847		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
4848
4849Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4850-----------------------------------
4851
4852The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4853loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4854This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4855are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4856within that device.
4857
4858- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4859	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
4860	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4861	is also specified.
4862
4863- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
4864	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
4865	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4866	is also specified.
4867
4868- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4869	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4870	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4871	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4872	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4873
4874- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4875	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4876	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4877	virtual address in NOR flash.
4878
4879- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4880	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4881	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4882
4883- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4884	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4885	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4886
4887- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4888	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4889	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4890
4891- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4892	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4893	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4894	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4895	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4896	master's memory space.
4897
4898Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
4899---------------------------------------------------------
4900The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
4901"firmware".
4902This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4903are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4904within that device.
4905
4906- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
4907	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
4908
4909- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR
4910	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4911	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro
4912	is also specified.
4913
4914- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH
4915	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4916	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4917	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4918	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4919
4920- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR
4921	Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4922	normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
4923	virtual address in NOR flash.
4924
4925Building the Software:
4926======================
4927
4928Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4929and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4930all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4931(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4932recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4933which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4934
4935If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4936have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4937you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4938Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4939necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4940
4941	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4942	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
4943
4944Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4945      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4946      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4947      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
4948
4949       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4950
4951      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4952      be executed on computers running Windows.
4953
4954U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4955sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4956is done by typing:
4957
4958	make NAME_defconfig
4959
4960where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
4961rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
4962
4963Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4964      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
4965      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
4966      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
4967      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4968
4969      make TQM823L_defconfig
4970	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4971
4972      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
4973	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
4974
4975      etc.
4976
4977
4978Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
4979images ready for download to / installation on your system:
4980
4981- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
4982- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
4983- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
4984
4985By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4986in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4987this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4988
49891. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4990
4991	make O=/tmp/build distclean
4992	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
4993	make O=/tmp/build all
4994
49952. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
4996
4997	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4998	make distclean
4999	make NAME_defconfig
5000	make all
5001
5002Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
5003variable.
5004
5005
5006Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
5007for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
5008native "make".
5009
5010
5011If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
5012to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
5013steps:
5014
50151.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
5016    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
5017    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
50182.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
5019    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
5020    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
50213.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
5022    your board
50233.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
5024    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
50254.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
50265.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
5027    to be installed on your target system.
50286.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
5029    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
5030
5031
5032Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
5033==============================================================
5034
5035If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
5036or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
5037provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
5038the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
5039official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
5040
5041But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
5042cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
5043the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
5044just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
5045for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
5046select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
5047environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
5048you can type
5049
5050	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5051
5052or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
5053
5054	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
5055
5056When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
5057U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
5058setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
5059built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
5060<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
5061location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
5062variable. For example:
5063
5064	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
5065	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
5066	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5067
5068With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
5069log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
5070during the whole build process.

5127
5128TODO.
5129
5130For now: just type "help <command>".
5131
5132
5133Environment Variables:
5134======================
5135
5136U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
5137can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
5138
5139Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
5140"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
5141without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
5142environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
5143working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
5144environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
5145
5146Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
5147
5148List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
5149
5150  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
5151
5152  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
5153
5154  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
5155
5156  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
5157
5158  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
5159
5160  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5161		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5162		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
5163		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
5164		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
5165		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
5166		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
5167		  bootm_mapsize.
5168
5169  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
5170		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
5171		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
5172		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
5173		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
5174		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
5175		  used otherwise.
5176
5177  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5178		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5179		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
5180		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
5181		  environment variable.
5182
5183  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
5184		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
5185		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
5186
5187  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
5188		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
5189		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
5190		  load any image using TFTP
5191
5192  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
5193		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
5194		  be automatically started (by internally calling
5195		  "bootm")
5196
5197		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
5198		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
5199		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
5200		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
5201		  data.
5202
5203  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
5204		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
5205		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
5206		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
5207		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
5208		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
5209		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
5210		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
5211		  access it during the boot procedure.
5212
5213		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
5214		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
5215		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
5216		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
5217		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
5218		  must be accessible by the kernel.
5219
5220  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
5221		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
5222		  defined.
5223
5224  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
5225		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
5226		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
5227		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
5228		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
5229
5230  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
5231		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
5232		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
5233		  is usually what you want since it allows for
5234		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
5235		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
5236		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
5237		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
5238		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
5239		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
5240		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
5241
5242		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
5243		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
5244		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
5245		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
5246		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
5247		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
5248
5249		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
5250
5251		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
5252		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
5253		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
5254		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
5255		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
5256		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
5257		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
5258
5259  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5260
5261  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
5262		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
5263
5264  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
5265
5266  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5267
5268  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
5269
5270  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
5271
5272  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
5273
5274  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
5275
5276  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
5277		  For example you can do the following
5278
5279		  => setenv ethact FEC
5280		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
5281		  => setenv ethact SCC
5282		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
5283
5284  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
5285		  available network interfaces.
5286		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
5287
5288  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
5289		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
5290		  When set to "once" the network operation will
5291		  fail when all the available network interfaces
5292		  are tried once without success.
5293		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
5294		  themselves.
5295
5296  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
5297
5298  silent_linux  - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by
5299		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
5300		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
5301		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
5302		  is silent.
5303
5304  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
5305		  UDP source port.
5306
5307  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
5308		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
5309
5310  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
5311		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
5312
5313  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
5314		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
5315		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
5316		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
5317		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
5318		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
5319		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
5320
5321  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
5322		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
5323		  VLAN tagged frames.
5324
5325The following image location variables contain the location of images
5326used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
5327not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
5328variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
5329server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
5330loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
5331flash or offset in NAND flash.
5332
5333*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
5334boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
5335boards use these variables for other purposes.
5336
5337Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
5338-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
5339u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
5340Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
5341device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
5342ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
5343
5344The following environment variables may be used and automatically
5345updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
5346depending the information provided by your boot server:
5347
5348  bootfile	- see above
5349  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
5350  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5351  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5352  hostname	- Target hostname
5353  ipaddr	- see above
5354  netmask	- Subnet Mask
5355  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5356  serverip	- see above
5357
5358
5359There are two special Environment Variables:
5360
5361  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
5362		  as type string and/or serial number
5363  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
5364
5365These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5366the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5367once they have been set once.
5368
5369
5370Further special Environment Variables:
5371
5372  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5373		  with the "version" command. This variable is
5374		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
5375
5376
5377Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
5378only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
5379
5380
5381Callback functions for environment variables:
5382---------------------------------------------
5383
5384For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5385when their values are changed.  This functionailty allows functions to
5386be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
5387deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5388effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5389
5390The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5391U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5392
5393These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
5394static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5395in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5396associations.  The list must be in the following format:
5397
5398	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5399	list = entry[,list]
5400
5401If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5402Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5403
5404Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5405with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
5406override any association in the static list. You can define
5407CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5408".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5409
5410
5411Command Line Parsing:
5412=====================
5413
5414There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5415the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5416
5417Old, simple command line parser:
5418--------------------------------
5419
5420- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5421- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5422- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5423- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5424  for example:
5425	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5426- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5427	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5428
5429Hush shell:
5430-----------
5431
5432- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5433  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5434  until...do...done, ...
5435- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5436  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5437  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5438  command
5439
5440General rules:
5441--------------
5442
5443(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5444    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5445    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5446    executed anyway.
5447
5448(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5449    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5450    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5451    variables are not executed.
5452
5453Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5454=======================================
5455
5456Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5457such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5458"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5459
5460Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5461MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5462"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5463
5464If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5465in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5466ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5467variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5468
5469o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5470  environment, the SROM's address is used.
5471
5472o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5473  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5474  used.
5475
5476o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5477  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5478
5479o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5480  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5481  warning is printed.
5482
5483o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5484  is raised.
5485
5486If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5487will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
5488may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5489The naming convention is as follows:
5490"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5491
5492Image Formats:
5493==============
5494
5495U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5496images in two formats:
5497
5498New uImage format (FIT)
5499-----------------------
5500
5501Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5502to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5503components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5504SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5505
5506
5507Old uImage format
5508-----------------
5509
5510Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5511preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5512details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5513
5514* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5515  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5516  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5517  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5518  INTEGRITY).
5519* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5520  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5521  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5522* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5523* Load Address
5524* Entry Point
5525* Image Name
5526* Image Timestamp
5527
5528The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5529and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5530CRC32 checksums.
5531
5532
5533Linux Support:
5534==============
5535
5536Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5537easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5538U-Boot.
5539
5540U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5541special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5542"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5543instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5544serves several purposes:
5545
5546- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5547  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5548  Flash memory footprint)
5549
5550- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5551  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5552
5553- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5554  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5555  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5556  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5557  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5558  software is easier now.
5559
5560
5561Linux HOWTO:
5562============
5563
5564Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5565---------------------------------------
5566
5567U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5568configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5569(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5570Linux :-).
5571
5572But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5573
5574Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5575include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5576Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5577and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5578as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5579
5580Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
5581If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
5582is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
5583doc/driver-model.
5584
5585
5586Configuring the Linux kernel:
5587-----------------------------
5588
5589No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5590device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5591
5592
5593Building a Linux Image:
5594-----------------------
5595
5596With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5597not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5598"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5599U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5600which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5601100% compatible format.
5602
5603Example:
5604
5605	make TQM850L_defconfig
5606	make oldconfig
5607	make dep
5608	make uImage
5609
5610The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5611encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5612CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5613
5614* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5615
5616* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5617
5618	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5619				 -R .note -R .comment \
5620				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5621
5622* compress the binary image:
5623
5624	gzip -9 linux.bin
5625
5626* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5627
5628	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5629		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5630		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5631
5632
5633The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5634with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5635combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5636byte header containing information about target architecture,
5637operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5638stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5639
5640"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5641print the header information, or to build new images.
5642
5643In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5644contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5645checksum verification:
5646
5647	tools/mkimage -l image
5648	  -l ==> list image header information
5649
5650The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5651from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5652
5653	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5654		      -n name -d data_file image
5655	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5656	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5657	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5658	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5659	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5660	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5661	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5662	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5663
5664Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5665address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5666kernel version:
5667
5668- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5669- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5670
5671So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5672
5673	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5674	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5675	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5676	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5677	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5678	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5679	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5680	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5681	Load Address: 0x00000000
5682	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5683
5684To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5685
5686	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5687	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5688	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5689	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5690	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5691	Load Address: 0x00000000
5692	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5693
5694NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5695speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5696needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5697need to be uncompressed:
5698
5699	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5700	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5701	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5702	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5703	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5704	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5705	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5706	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5707	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5708	Load Address: 0x00000000
5709	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5710
5711
5712Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5713when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5714
5715	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5716	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5717	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5718	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5719	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5720	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5721	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5722	Load Address: 0x00000000
5723	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5724
5725The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5726option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5727option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5728from the image:
5729
5730	tools/dumpimage -i image -p position data_file
5731	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file', \
5732	   indexed by 'position'
5733
5734
5735Installing a Linux Image:
5736-------------------------
5737
5738To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5739you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5740
5741	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5742
5743The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5744image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5745address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5746specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5747command.
5748
5749Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5750TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5751
5752	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5753
5754	.......... done
5755	Erased 8 sectors
5756
5757	=> loads 40100000
5758	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5759	~>examples/image.srec
5760	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
5761	...
5762	15989 15990 15991 15992
5763	[file transfer complete]
5764	[connected]
5765	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5766
5767
5768You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5769this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5770corruption happened:
5771
5772	=> imi 40100000
5773
5774	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
5775	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L
5776	   Image Type:	 PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5777	   Data Size:	 335725 Bytes = 327 kB = 0 MB
5778	   Load Address: 00000000
5779	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
5780	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
5781
5782
5783Boot Linux:
5784-----------
5785
5786The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5787memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5788of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5789parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5790"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5791
5792
5793	=> printenv bootargs
5794	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5795
5796	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5797
5798	=> printenv bootargs
5799	bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5800
5801	=> bootm 40020000
5802	## Booting Linux kernel at 40020000 ...

5817If you want to boot a Linux kernel with initial RAM disk, you pass
5818the memory addresses of both the kernel and the initrd image (PPBCOOT
5819format!) to the "bootm" command:
5820

5869First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section

5915More About U-Boot Image Types:
5916------------------------------
5917
5918U-Boot supports the following image types:
5919
5920   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5921	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5922	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5923	the Standalone Program.
5924   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5925	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5926	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5927	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5928	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5929   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5930	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5931	being started.
5932   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5933	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5934	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5935	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5936	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5937	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5938
5939	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5940	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5941	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5942	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5943	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5944	a multiple of 4 bytes).
5945
5946   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5947	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5948	flash memory.
5949
5950   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5951	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5952	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5953	as command interpreter.
5954
5955Booting the Linux zImage:
5956-------------------------
5957
5958On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5959using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5960as the syntax of "bootm" command.
5961
5962Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5963kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5964address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5965format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
5966
5967
5968Standalone HOWTO:
5969=================
5970
5971One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5972run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5973U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5974
5975Two simple examples are included with the sources:
5976
5977"Hello World" Demo:
5978-------------------
5979
5980'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5981application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5982It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5983like that:
5984
5985	=> loads
5986	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5987	~>examples/hello_world.srec
5988	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
5989	[file transfer complete]
5990	[connected]
5991	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
5992
5993	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
5994	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
5995	Hello World
5996	argc = 7
5997	argv[0] = "40004"
5998	argv[1] = "Hello"
5999	argv[2] = "World!"
6000	argv[3] = "This"
6001	argv[4] = "is"
6002	argv[5] = "a"
6003	argv[6] = "test."
6004	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
6005	Hit any key to exit ...
6006
6007	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
6008
6009Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
6010handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
6011Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
6012The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
6013character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
6014controlled by the following keys:
6015
6016	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
6017	b - enable interrupts and start timer
6018	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
6019	q - quit application
6020
6021	=> loads

6056Minicom warning:
6057================
6058
6059Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
6060"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
6061consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
6062Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
6063especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
6064use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
6065http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
6066for help with kermit.
6067
6068
6069Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
6070configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
6071
6072	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
6073	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N
6074	Y  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r	 N    D	   Y	   N	  N
6075
6076
6077NetBSD Notes:
6078=============
6079
6080Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
6081(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
6082
6083Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
6084NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
6085need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
6086Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
6087attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
6088missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
6089
6090	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
6091	# mkdir powerpc
6092	# ln -s powerpc machine
6093	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
6094	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
6095
6096Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
6097and U-Boot include files.
6098
6099Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
6100stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
6101proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
6102tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
6103meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
6104
6105
6106Implementation Internals:
6107=========================
6108
6109The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
6110implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
6111inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
6112hardware.
6113
6114
6115Initial Stack, Global Data:
6116---------------------------
6117
6118The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
6119starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
6120system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
6121This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
6122is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
6123at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
6124options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
6125models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
6126MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
6127locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
6128
6129	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
6130	U-Boot mailing list:
6131
6132	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
6133	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
6134	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
6135	...
6136
6137	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
6138	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
6139	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
6140	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
6141	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
6142	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
6143	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
6144	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
6145
6146	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
6147	is another option for the system designer to use as an
6148	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
6149	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
6150	board designers haven't used it for something that would
6151	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
6152	used.
6153
6154	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
6155	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
6156	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
6157	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
6158	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
6159	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
6160	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
6161	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
6162	you get the config right.

6166
6167It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
6168code for the initialization procedures:
6169
6170* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
6171  to write it.
6172
6173* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
6174  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
6175  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
6176
6177* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
6178  that.
6179
6180Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
6181normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
6182turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
6183simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
6184functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
6185functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
6186the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
6187place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
6188reserve for this purpose.
6189
6190When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
6191relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
6192GCC's implementation.
6193
6194For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
6195	R1:	stack pointer
6196	R2:	reserved for system use
6197	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
6198	R5-R10: parameter passing
6199	R13:	small data area pointer
6200	R30:	GOT pointer
6201	R31:	frame pointer
6202
6203	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
6204	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
6205	going back and forth between asm and C)
6206
6207    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
6208
6209    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
6210    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
6211    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
6212    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
6213    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
6214    624 text + 127 data).
6215
6216On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
6217	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
6218
6219    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
6220
6221On ARM, the following registers are used:
6222
6223	R0:	function argument word/integer result
6224	R1-R3:	function argument word
6225	R9:	platform specific
6226	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
6227	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
6228	R12:	temporary workspace
6229	R13:	stack pointer
6230	R14:	link register
6231	R15:	program counter
6232
6233    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
6234
6235    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
6236
6237On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
6238	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
6239
6240    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
6241
6242    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
6243    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
6244
6245On NDS32, the following registers are used:
6246
6247	R0-R1:	argument/return
6248	R2-R5:	argument
6249	R15:	temporary register for assembler
6250	R16:	trampoline register
6251	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
6252	R29:	global pointer (GP)
6253	R30:	link register (LP)
6254	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
6255	PC:	program counter (PC)
6256
6257    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
6258
6259NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
6260or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
6261
6262Memory Management:
6263------------------
6264
6265U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
6266MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
6267
6268The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
6269controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
6270memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
6271physical memory banks.
6272
6273U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
6274TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
6275booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
6276to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
6277memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
6278configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
6279Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
6280
6281Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
6282of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
6283
6284So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
6285this:
6286
6287	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code

6307System Initialization:
6308----------------------
6309
6310In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
6311(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
6312configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
6313To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
6314To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
6315initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
6316which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
6317part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
6318the caches and the SIU.
6319
6320Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
6321preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
6322(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
6323on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
6324programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
6325simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
6326banks.
6327
6328When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
6329different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
6330bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
63310x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
6332contiguous memory starting from 0.
6333
6334Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
6335and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
6336Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
6337pages, and the final stack is set up.
6338
6339Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
6340until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
6341running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
6342new address in RAM.

6419Coding Standards:
6420-----------------
6421
6422All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6423coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6424"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6425
6426Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6427MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6428reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6429sources.
6430
6431Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6432Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6433in your code.
6434
6435Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6436- remove any trailing white space
6437- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6438- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6439- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6440- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6441
6442Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6443with a request to reformat the changes.
6444
6445
6446Submitting Patches:
6447-------------------
6448
6449Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6450establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6451may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6452
6453Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6454
6455Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6456see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6457
6458When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6459it:
6460
6461* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6462  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6463  patch actually fixes something.
6464
6465* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6466  implementation.
6467
6468* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6469
6470* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
6471
6472* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6473  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6474
6475* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6476  document these in the README file.
6477
6478* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6479  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6480  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6481  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6482  with some other mail clients.
6483
6484  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6485  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6486  GNU diff.
6487
6488  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6489  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6490  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6491  affected files).
6492
6493  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6494  and compressed attachments must not be used.
6495
6496* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6497  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6498
6499* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6500  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6501
6502
6503Notes:
6504
6505* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6506  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6507  for any of the boards.
6508
6509* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6510  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6511  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6512
6513* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6514  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6515  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6516  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6517  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6518  modification.
6519
6520* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6521  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6522  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6523  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
