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>_config".
256
257Example: For a TQM823L module type:
258
259	cd u-boot
260	make TQM823L_config
261
262For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
263e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
264directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
265
266
267Configuration Options:
268----------------------
269
270Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
271such information is kept in a configuration file
272"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
273
274Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
275"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
276
277
278Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
279kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
280build a config tool - later.
281
282
283The following options need to be configured:
284
285- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
286
287- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
288
289- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
290		Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
291
292- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
293		Define exactly one of
294		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
295--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
296		CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
297		CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
298
299- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
300		Define exactly one of
301		CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
302
303- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
304		Define one or more of
305		CONFIG_CMA302
306
307- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
308		Define one or more of
309		CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT	- update a character position on
310					  the LCD display every second with
311					  a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
312
313- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined)
314		CONFIG_ADSTYPE
315		Possible values are:
316			CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS	- original MPC8260ADS
317			CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS	- MPC8266ADS
318			CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS	- PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR
319			CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS	- MPC8272ADS
320
321- Marvell Family Member
322		CONFIG_SYS_MVFS		- define it if you want to enable
323					  multiple fs option at one time
324					  for marvell soc family
325
326- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
327		Define exactly one of
328		CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
329
330- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
331		CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ	- deprecated: CPU clock if
332					  get_gclk_freq() cannot work
333					  e.g. if there is no 32KHz
334					  reference PIT/RTC clock
335		CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK	- PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
336					  or XTAL/EXTAL)
337
338- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
339		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
340		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
341		CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
342			See doc/README.MPC866
343
344		CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
345
346		Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
347		of relying on the correctness of the configured
348		values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
349		the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
350		that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
351		RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
352
353		CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
354
355		Define this option if you want to enable the
356		ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
357
358- 85xx CPU Options:
359		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
360
361		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
362		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
363		compliance, among other possible reasons.
364
365		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
366
367		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
368		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
369		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
370
371		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
372
373		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
374		tree nodes for the given platform.
375
376		CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
377
378		Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
379		around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
380		support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
381		breakpoints and single stepping do not work.  The value of this
382		symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
383		purpose.
384
385		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
386
387		Enables a workaround for erratum A004510.  If set,
388		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
389		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
390
391		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
392		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
393
394		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
395		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
396
397		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
398		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
399		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
400		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
401
402		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
403		this erratum.
404
405		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
406		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
407		requred during NOR boot.
408
409		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
410
411		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
412		according to the A004510 workaround.
413
414		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
415		This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
416		connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
417
418		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
419		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
420		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
421
422		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
423		This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
424		connected to the DSP core.
425
426		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
427		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
428
429		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
430		Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
431		In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
432		clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
433
434		CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F
435		This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the
436		time of U-boot entry and is required to be re-initialized.
437
438		CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP
439		Inidcates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is
440		supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up.
441
442- Generic CPU options:
443		CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
444
445		Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
446		values is arch specific.
447
448		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR
449		Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is
450		found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core

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

1046
1047		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
1048		support you can write:
1049
1050		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
1051		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1052
1053	Other Commands:
1054		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1055
1056	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1057		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1058		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1059		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1060		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1061		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1062		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1063		initial stack and some data.
1064
1065
1066		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1067
1068- Regular expression support:
1069		CONFIG_REGEX
1070		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1071		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1072		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1073		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1074
1075- Device tree:
1076		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1077		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1078		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1079		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1080		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1081		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1082
1083		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1084		be done using one of the two options below:
1085
1086		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1087		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1088		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1089		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1090		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1091		the global data structure as gd->blob.
1092
1093		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1094		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1095		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1096		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1097
1098			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1099
1100		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1101		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1102		still use the individual files if you need something more
1103		exotic.
1104
1105- Watchdog:
1106		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1107		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1108		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1109		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1110		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1111		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
1112		available, then no further board specific code should
1113		be needed to use it.
1114
1115		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1116		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1117		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1118		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1119
1120- U-Boot Version:
1121		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1122		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1123		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1124		version as printed by the "version" command.
1125		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1126		next reset.
1127
1128- Real-Time Clock:
1129
1130		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1131		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1132		following options:
1133
1134		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1135		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1136		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1137		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1138		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1139		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1140		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1141		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1142		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1143		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1144		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1145		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
1146					  RV3029 RTC.
1147
1148		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1149		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1150
1151- GPIO Support:
1152		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1153
1154		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1155		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1156		pins supported by a particular chip.
1157
1158		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1159		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1160
1161- Timestamp Support:
1162
1163		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1164		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
1165		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1166		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1167
1168- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1169		Zero or more of the following:
1170		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
1171		CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION   MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1172				       Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1173		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1174		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1175				       bootloader.  Note 2TB partition limit; see
1176				       disk/part_efi.c
1177		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
1178
1179		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1180		CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1181		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1182
1183- IDE Reset method:
1184		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1185		board configurations files but used nowhere!
1186
1187		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1188		be performed by calling the function
1189			ide_set_reset(int reset)
1190		which has to be defined in a board specific file
1191
1192- ATAPI Support:
1193		CONFIG_ATAPI
1194
1195		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1196
1197- LBA48 Support
1198		CONFIG_LBA48
1199
1200		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1201		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1202		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1203		support disks up to 2.1TB.
1204
1205		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1206			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1207			Default is 32bit.
1208
1209- SCSI Support:
1210		At the moment only there is only support for the
1211		SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
1212		CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
1213
1214		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1215		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1216		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1217		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1218		devices.
1219		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1220
1221		The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
1222		SCSI devices found during the last scan.
1223
1224- NETWORK Support (PCI):
1225		CONFIG_E1000
1226		Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips.
1227
1228		CONFIG_E1000_SPI
1229		Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x.
1230		This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one
1231		of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC.
1232
1233		CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC
1234		Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for
1235		example with the "sspi" command.
1236

1310			Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY.
1311			If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur
1312			wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or
1313			useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit
1314			control registers. This behavior won't affect the
1315			correctnessof 10/100 link speed update.

1370			to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at
1371			0xfed40000.
1372
1373		CONFIG_CMD_TPM
1374		Add tpm monitor functions.
1375		Requires CONFIG_TPM. If CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS is set, also
1376		provides monitor access to authorized functions.
1377

1414		CONFIG_USB_HUB_MIN_POWER_ON_DELAY defines the minimum
1415		interval for usb hub power-on delay.(minimum 100msec)
1416
1417- USB Device:
1418		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1419		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1420		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1421		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1422		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1423		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1424		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1425		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1426		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1427		a Linux host by
1428		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1429		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1430		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1431		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1432
1433			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1434			Define this to build a UDC device
1435
1436			CONFIG_USB_TTY
1437			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1438			talk to the UDC device
1439
1440			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1441			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1442			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1443			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1444			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1445			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1446			speed.
1447
1448			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1449			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1450			be set to usbtty.
1451
1452			mpc8xx:
1453				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH

1458				Derive USB clock from brgclk
1459				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
1460
1461		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1462		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1463		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1464		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1465		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1466		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1467
1468			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1469			Define this string as the name of your company for
1470			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1471
1472			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1473			Define this string as the name of your product
1474			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1475
1476			CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1477			Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1478			Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1479			to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1480			- CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1481
1482			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1483			Define this as the unique Product ID
1484			for your device
1485			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1486
1487- ULPI Layer Support:
1488		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1489		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1490		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1491		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1492		viewport is supported.
1493		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1494		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1495		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1496		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1497		the appropriate value in Hz.
1498
1499- MMC Support:
1500		The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1501		enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1502		accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1503		to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1504		enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1505		the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1506
1507		CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1508		Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1509
1510			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR

1517		CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION
1518		This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1519
1520		CONFIG_CMD_DFU
1521		This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have
1522		U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB.  This command
1523		requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1524		set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1525
1526		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1527		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1528
1529		CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1530		This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1531
1532		CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1533		This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1534		Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1535		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1536		one that would help mostly the developer.
1537
1538		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1539		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1540		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1541		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1542		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1543
1544		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1545		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1546		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1547		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1548		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1549		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1550
1551		DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1552		Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1553		host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1554		a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1555
1556		DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1557		Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1558		entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1559		sending again an USB request to the device.
1560
1561- Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1562		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
1563		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
1564		Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1565
1566		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1567		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1568		Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1569
1570		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
1571		Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1572		function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1573
1574		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1575		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1576		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1577		have not defined a custom partition
1578
1579- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1580		CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1581
1582		Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1583		file in FAT formatted partition.
1584
1585		This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1586		user to write files to FAT.
1587
1588CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1589		CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1590
1591		Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1592		filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
1593		and cbfsload.
1594
1595- Keyboard Support:
1596		CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
1597
1598		Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
1599		support
1600
1601		CONFIG_I8042_KBD
1602		Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
1603		GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
1604		Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
1605		for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
1606
1607		CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB
1608		Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface.
1609		This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller
1610		which provides key scans on request.
1611
1612- Video support:
1613		CONFIG_VIDEO
1614
1615		Define this to enable video support (for output to
1616		video).
1617
1618		CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
1619
1620		Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
1621
1622		CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1623		Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1624		video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1625		(1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1626		assumed.
1627
1628		For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1629		selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1630		are possible:
1631		- "videomode=num"   'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
1632		Following standard modes are supported	(* is default):
1633
1634		      Colors	640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
1635		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1636		      8 bits |	0x301*	0x303	 0x305	  0x161	    0x307
1637		     15 bits |	0x310	0x313	 0x316	  0x162	    0x319
1638		     16 bits |	0x311	0x314	 0x317	  0x163	    0x31A
1639		     24 bits |	0x312	0x315	 0x318	    ?	    0x31B
1640		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1641		(i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1642
1643		- "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1644		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1645
1646
1647		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1648		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1649		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1650		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1651
1652		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1653		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1654		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1655		support, and should also define these other macros:
1656
1657			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1658			CONFIG_VIDEO
1659			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1660			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1661			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1662			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1663			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1664			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1665
1666		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1667		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1668		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1669		description of this variable.
1670
1671		CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
1672
1673		Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1674		are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1675		driver.
1676
1677
1678- Keyboard Support:
1679		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1680
1681		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1682		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1683		defined in your board-specific files.
1684		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1685
1686- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1687
1688		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1689		display); also select one of the supported displays
1690		by defining one of these:
1691
1692		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1693
1694			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1695
1696		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1697
1698			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1699
1700		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1701
1702			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1703			Active, color, single scan.
1704
1705		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1706
1707			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1708			Active, color, single scan.
1709
1710		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1711
1712			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1713			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1714
1715		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1716
1717			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1718			Active, color, single scan.
1719
1720		CONFIG_HLD1045
1721
1722			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1723			Active, color, single scan.
1724
1725		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1726
1727			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1728			or
1729			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1730			or
1731			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1732
1733			320x240. Black & white.
1734
1735		Normally display is black on white background; define
1736		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1737
1738		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1739
1740		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1741		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1742		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1743		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1744		a per-section basis.
1745
1746		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1747
1748		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1749		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1750		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1751		is slow.
1752
1753		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1754
1755		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1756
1757		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1758
1759		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1760		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1761
1762- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1763
1764		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1765		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1766		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1767		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1768		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1769		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1770		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1771		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1772
1773		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1774
1775		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1776		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1777		(see README.displaying-bmps).
1778		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1779		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1780		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1781		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1782		there is no need to set this option.
1783
1784		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1785
1786		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1787		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1788		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1789		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1790		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1791		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1792
1793		Example:
1794		setenv splashpos m,m
1795			=> image at center of screen
1796
1797		setenv splashpos 30,20
1798			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1799
1800		setenv splashpos -10,m
1801			=> vertically centered image
1802			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1803
1804- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1805
1806		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1807		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1808		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1809
1810- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1811
1812		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1813		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1814		bmp command.
1815
1816- Do compresssing for memory range:
1817		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1818
1819		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1820		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1821
1822- Compression support:
1823		CONFIG_GZIP
1824
1825		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1826
1827		CONFIG_BZIP2
1828
1829		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1830		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1831		compressed images are supported.
1832
1833		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1834		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1835		be at least 4MB.
1836
1837		CONFIG_LZMA
1838
1839		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1840		images is included.
1841
1842		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1843		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1844		formula:
1845
1846			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1847
1848		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1849		and Literal pos bits.
1850
1851		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1852		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1853		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1854		a very small buffer.
1855
1856		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1857		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1858		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1859
1860		CONFIG_LZO
1861
1862		If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
1863		is included.
1864
1865- MII/PHY support:
1866		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1867
1868		The address of PHY on MII bus.
1869
1870		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1871
1872		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1873
1874		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
1875
1876		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1877		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1878
1879		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1880
1881		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1882		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1883		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1884		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1885
1886		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1887
1888		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1889		command issued before MII status register can be read
1890
1891- Ethernet address:
1892		CONFIG_ETHADDR
1893		CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
1894		CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
1895		CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
1896		CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
1897		CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
1898
1899		Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1900		for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
1901		is not determined automatically.
1902
1903- IP address:
1904		CONFIG_IPADDR
1905
1906		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1907		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1908		determined through e.g. bootp.
1909		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
1910
1911- Server IP address:
1912		CONFIG_SERVERIP
1913
1914		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1915		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1916		(Environment variable "serverip")
1917
1918		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1919
1920		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1921		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1922
1923- Gateway IP address:
1924		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
1925
1926		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1927		default router where packets to other networks are
1928		sent to.
1929		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
1930
1931- Subnet mask:
1932		CONFIG_NETMASK
1933
1934		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
1935		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
1936		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
1937		forwarded through a router.
1938		(Environment variable "netmask")
1939
1940- Multicast TFTP Mode:
1941		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
1942
1943		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1944		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
1945		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
1946		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1947		multicast group.
1948
1949- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1950		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1951
1952		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1953		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1954		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1955		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1956		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1957		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1958		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1959		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
1960		following delays are inserted then:
1961
1962		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
1963		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
1964		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
1965		4th and following
1966		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
1967
1968- DHCP Advanced Options:
1969		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1970		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1971
1972		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
1973		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
1974		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
1975		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
1976		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
1977		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
1978		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1979		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
1980		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
1981		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
1982		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
1983		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
1984		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1985
1986		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1987		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1988
1989		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1990		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1991		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
1992		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1993		is not available.
1994
1995		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1996		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1997		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1998		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1999		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
2000		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
2001		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2002		is defined.
2003
2004		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
2005		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
2006		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
2007		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
2008		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
2009		option 12 to the DHCP server.
2010
2011		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
2012
2013		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
2014		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
2015		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
2016		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
2017		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
2018		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
2019		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
2020		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
2021		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
2022		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
2023		this delay.
2024
2025 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
2026		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
2027		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
2028		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
2029		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
2030
2031		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
2032
2033 - CDP Options:
2034		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
2035
2036		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
2037
2038		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
2039
2040		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
2041		of the device.
2042
2043		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
2044
2045		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
2046		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
2047		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
2048
2049		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
2050
2051		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
2052		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
2053
2054		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
2055
2056		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
2057
2058		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
2059
2060		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
2061
2062		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
2063
2064		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
2065
2066		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
2067
2068		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
2069		device in .1 of milliwatts.
2070
2071		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
2072
2073		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
2074
2075- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2076
2077		Several configurations allow to display the current
2078		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2079		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2080		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2081		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2082		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2083		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2084		feature in U-Boot.
2085
2086		Additional options:
2087
2088		CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2089		The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2090		In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2091		status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2092		to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2093
2094		CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2095		Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2096		case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2097		GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2098		In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2099		with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2100
2101- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2102
2103		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
2104		on those systems that support this (optional)
2105		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2106
2107- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
2108
2109		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
2110		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
2111		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
2112		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
2113		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
2114		interface.

2215		  - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_S3C24X0
2216		  - This driver adds i2c buses (11 for Exynos5250, Exynos5420
2217		    9 i2c buses for Exynos4 and 1 for S3C24X0 SoCs from Samsung)
2218		    with a fix speed from 100000 and the slave addr 0!
2219
2220		additional defines:
2221
2222		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2223		Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
2224		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2225		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2226		omit this define.
2227
2228		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2229		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2230		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2231		omit this define.
2232
2233		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2234		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2235		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2236		define.
2237
2238		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2239		hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2240		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2241		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2242		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2243
2244		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2245					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2246					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2247					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2248					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2249					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2250					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2251					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \
2252					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2253					}
2254
2255		which defines
2256			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
2257			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
2258			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2
2259			bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3
2260			bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4
2261			bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5
2262			bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux
2263			bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1
2264			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2265
2266		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2267
2268- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2269
2270		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2271		provides the following compelling advantages:
2272
2273		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2274		- approved multibus support
2275		- better i2c mux support
2276
2277		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2278
2279		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2280		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2281		for the selected CPU.
2282
2283		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2284		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2285		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2286		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2287		command line interface.
2288
2289		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2290
2291		There are several other quantities that must also be
2292		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2293
2294		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2295		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2296		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2297		the CPU's i2c node address).
2298
2299		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2300		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2301		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2302		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2303		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2304
2305		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2306
2307		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2308		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2309		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2310		commands until the slave device responds.
2311
2312		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2313
2314		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2315		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2316		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2317
2318		I2C_INIT
2319
2320		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2321		controller or configure ports.
2322
2323		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2324
2325		I2C_PORT
2326
2327		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2328		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2329		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2330
2331		I2C_ACTIVE
2332
2333		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2334		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2335		define can be null.
2336
2337		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2338
2339		I2C_TRISTATE
2340
2341		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2342		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2343		define can be null.
2344
2345		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2346
2347		I2C_READ
2348
2349		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2350		false if it is low.
2351
2352		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2353
2354		I2C_SDA(bit)
2355
2356		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2357		is false, it clears it (low).
2358
2359		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2360			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2361			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2362
2363		I2C_SCL(bit)
2364
2365		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2366		is false, it clears it (low).
2367
2368		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2369			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2370			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2371
2372		I2C_DELAY
2373
2374		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2375		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2376		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2377		like:
2378
2379		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2380
2381		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2382
2383		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2384		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2385		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2386		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2387
2388		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2389		the generic GPIO functions.
2390
2391		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2392
2393		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2394		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2395		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2396		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2397		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2398		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2399		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2400		is run early in the boot sequence.
2401
2402		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2403
2404		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2405		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2406		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2407		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2408		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2409		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2410		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2411		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2412
2413		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2414
2415		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2416		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2417		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2418
2419		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2420
2421		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2422		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2423		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2424		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2425
2426		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2427
2428		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2429		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2430		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2431		a 1D array of device addresses
2432
2433		e.g.
2434			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2435			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2436
2437		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2438
2439			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2440			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2441
2442		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2443
2444		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2445
2446		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2447		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2448
2449		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2450
2451		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2452		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2453
2454		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2455
2456		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2457		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2458
2459		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2460
2461		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2462		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2463		specified DTT device.
2464
2465		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2466
2467		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2468		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2469		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2470		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2471		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2472		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2473		the other.
2474
2475- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2476
2477		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2478		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2479		D/As on the SACSng board)
2480
2481		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2482
2483		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2484		only SH7757 is supported.
2485
2486		CONFIG_SPI_X
2487
2488		Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2489		(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2490
2491		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2492
2493		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2494		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2495		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2496		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2497		defined, the board configuration must define several
2498		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2499		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2500
2501		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2502
2503		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2504		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2505		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2506		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2507		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2508
2509		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2510
2511		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2512		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2513
2514- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2515
2516		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2517
2518		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2519
2520		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2521		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2522
2523		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2524
2525		Enables support for FPGA family.
2526		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2527
2528		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2529
2530		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2531
2532		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2533
2534		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2535
2536		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2537
2538		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2539		status by the configuration function. This option
2540		will require a board or device specific function to
2541		be written.
2542
2543		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2544
2545		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2546		configuration driver.
2547
2548		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2549		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2550
2551		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2552
2553		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2554		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2555		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2556		indicated a CRC error).
2557
2558		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2559
2560		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2561		after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2562		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2563		ms.
2564
2565		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2566
2567		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2568		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2569
2570		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2571
2572		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2573		200 ms.
2574
2575- Configuration Management:
2576		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2577
2578		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2579		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2580
2581- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2582
2583		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2584		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2585		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2586		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2587		protects these variables from casual modification by
2588		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2589		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2590		change this behaviour:
2591
2592		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2593		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2594		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2595		these parameters.
2596
2597		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2598		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2599		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2600		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2601		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2602		read-only.]
2603
2604		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2605		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2606		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2607		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2608
2609- Protected RAM:
2610		CONFIG_PRAM
2611
2612		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2613		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2614		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2615		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2616		this default value by defining an environment
2617		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2618		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2619		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2620		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2621		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2622		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2623		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2624
2625			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2626			saveenv
2627
2628		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2629		either, which results in a memory region that will
2630		not be affected by reboots.
2631
2632		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2633		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2634		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2635		following board configurations are known to be
2636		"pRAM-clean":
2637
2638			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2639			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2640			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2641
2642- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2643		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2644		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2645		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2646		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2647		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2648		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2649
2650- Error Recovery:
2651		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2652
2653		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2654		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2655		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2656		system where you want the system to reboot
2657		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2658		useful during development since you can try to debug
2659		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2660
2661		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2662
2663		This variable defines the number of retries for
2664		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2665		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2666		default value of 5 is used.
2667
2668		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2669
2670		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2671
2672		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2673
2674		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2675		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2676		try longer timeout such as
2677		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2678
2679- Command Interpreter:
2680		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2681
2682		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2683
2684		Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2685		for the "hush" shell.
2686
2687
2688		CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2689
2690		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2691		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2692		powerful command line syntax like
2693		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2694		constructs ("shell scripts").
2695
2696		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2697		with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2698
2699
2700		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2701
2702		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2703		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2704		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2705
2706	Note:
2707
2708		In the current implementation, the local variables
2709		space and global environment variables space are
2710		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2711		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2712		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2713		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2714		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2715
2716		Global environment variables are those you use
2717		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2718		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2719		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2720
2721		To store commands and special characters in a
2722		variable, please use double quotation marks
2723		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2724		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2725		symbols.
2726
2727- Commandline Editing and History:
2728		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2729
2730		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2731		commandline input operations
2732
2733- Default Environment:
2734		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2735
2736		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2737		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2738		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2739
2740		For example, place something like this in your
2741		board's config file:
2742
2743		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2744			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2745			"myvar2=value2\0"
2746
2747		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2748		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2749		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2750		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2751		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2752		You better know what you are doing here.
2753
2754		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2755		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2756		the environment like the "source" command or the
2757		boot command first.
2758
2759		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2760
2761		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2762		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2763		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2764
2765		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2766
2767		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2768		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2769		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2770		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2771		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2772
2773		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2774
2775		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2776		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2777		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2778
2779		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2780
2781		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2782		intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2783		that so that the environment is not available until
2784		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2785		this is instead controlled by the value of
2786		/config/load-environment.
2787
2788- DataFlash Support:
2789		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2790
2791		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2792		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2793		commands cp, md...
2794
2795- Serial Flash support
2796		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2797
2798		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2799		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2800
2801		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2802		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2803		commands.
2804
2805		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2806		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2807		flash is present on the system.
2808
2809		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2810		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2811		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2812		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2813
2814		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2815
2816		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2817		test ('sf test').
2818
2819		CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR		Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2820
2821		Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2822		support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2823
2824		CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH		Dual flash memories
2825
2826		Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
2827		memories can be connected with a given cs line.
2828		currently Xilinx Zynq qspi support these type of connections.
2829
2830- SystemACE Support:
2831		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2832
2833		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2834		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2835		of the chip must also be defined in the
2836		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2837
2838		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2839		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2840
2841		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2842		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2843
2844- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2845		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2846
2847		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2848		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2849		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2850		number generator is used.
2851
2852		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2853		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
2854		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2855
2856		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2857		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2858		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2859		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2860		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2861		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2862		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2863
2864- Hashing support:
2865		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
2866
2867		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2868		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2869
2870		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
2871
2872		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2873		size a little.
2874
2875		CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2876		CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2877
2878		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2879		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2880
2881- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
2882		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
2883		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
2884		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
2885
2886		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
2887		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
2888		a boot from specific media.
2889
2890		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
2891		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
2892		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
2893		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
2894		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
2895
2896- Signing support:
2897		CONFIG_RSA
2898
2899		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
2900		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
2901
2902		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
2903		option.
2904
2905- bootcount support:
2906		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
2907
2908		This enables the bootcounter support, see:
2909		http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
2910
2911		CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
2912		enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
2913		CONFIG_BLACKFIN
2914		enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
2915		CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
2916		enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
2917		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
2918		enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
2919		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
2920		enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
2921			CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
2922			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
2923						    the bootcounter.
2924			CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
2925
2926- Show boot progress:
2927		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2928
2929		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2930		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2931		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2932		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2933		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2934		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2935
2936- Detailed boot stage timing
2937		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
2938		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
2939		of the boot process.
2940
2941		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
2942		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
2943		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
2944		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
2945		the limit, recording will stop.
2946
2947		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
2948		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
2949
2950		Timer summary in microseconds:
2951		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
2952			  0          0  reset
2953		  3,575,678  3,575,678  board_init_f start
2954		  3,575,695         17  arch_cpu_init A9
2955		  3,575,777         82  arch_cpu_init done
2956		  3,659,598     83,821  board_init_r start
2957		  3,910,375    250,777  main_loop
2958		 29,916,167 26,005,792  bootm_start
2959		 30,361,327    445,160  start_kernel
2960
2961		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
2962		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
2963		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
2964
2965		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
2966		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
2967		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
2968		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
2969		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
2970		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
2971		For example:
2972
2973		bootstage {
2974			154 {
2975				name = "board_init_f";
2976				mark = <3575678>;
2977			};
2978			170 {
2979				name = "lcd";
2980				accum = <33482>;
2981			};
2982		};
2983
2984		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.
2985
2986Legacy uImage format:

3143		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3144		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3145		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3146		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3147		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3148		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3149
3150		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE

3168		when using a graphics controller has separate video
3169		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3170		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3171		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3172		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3173		configured panel size.

3450		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3451
3452Modem Support:
3453--------------
3454
3455[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3456
3457- Modem support enable:
3458		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3459
3460- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3461		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3462
3463- Modem debug support:
3464		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3465
3466		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3467		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3468
3469- Interrupt support (PPC):
3470
3471		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3472		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3473		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3474		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3475		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3476		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3477		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3478		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3479		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3480		general timer_interrupt().
3481
3482- General:
3483
3484		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3485		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3486		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3487		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3488		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3489		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3490		initialization.
3491
3492		If there are no modem init strings in the
3493		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3494		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3495		suppressed, though.
3496
3497		See also: doc/README.Modem
3498
3499Board initialization settings:
3500------------------------------
3501
3502During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3503to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3504before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3505following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3506architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3507typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3508
3509- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3510- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3511- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3512- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3513
3514Configuration Settings:
3515-----------------------
3516
3517- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
3518		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
3519
3520- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3521		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3522
3523- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3524		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3525
3526- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3527		prompt for user input.
3528
3529- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3530
3531- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3532
3533- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3534
3535- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3536		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3537		booted
3538
3539- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3540		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3541
3542- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3543		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3544
3545- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3546		If the board specific function
3547			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3548		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3549		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3550
3551- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3552		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3553
3554- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3555		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3556
3557- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3558		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3559		simple memory test.
3560
3561- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3562		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3563
3564- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3565		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3566		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3567
3568- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3569		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3570		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3571		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3572		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3573		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3574		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3575		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3576		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3577		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3578
3579		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3580		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3581		be touched.
3582
3583		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3584		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3585		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3586		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3587		problems.
3588
3589- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3590		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3591
3592- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3593		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3594
3595- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3596		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3597		Cogent motherboard)
3598
3599- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3600		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3601
3602- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3603		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3604		make config files to be same as the text base address
3605		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3606		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3607
3608- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3609		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3610		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3611		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3612		flash sector.
3613
3614- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3615		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3616
3617- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3618		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3619		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3620		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3621		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3622
3623- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3624		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3625		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3626		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3627		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3628		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3629		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3630		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3631		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3632		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3633		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3634
3635- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3636		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3637		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3638		is enabled.
3639
3640- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3641		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3642		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3643
3644- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3645		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3646		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3647
3648- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3649		Max number of Flash memory banks
3650
3651- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3652		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3653
3654- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3655		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3656
3657- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3658		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3659
3660- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3661		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3662
3663- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3664		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3665
3666- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3667		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3668		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3669
3670- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3671
3672		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3673		without this option such a download has to be
3674		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3675		copy from RAM to flash.
3676
3677		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3678		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3679		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3680		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3681		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3682
3683- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3684		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3685		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3686
3687- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3688		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3689		in the drivers directory
3690
3691- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3692		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3693		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3694		to the MTD layer.
3695
3696- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3697		Use buffered writes to flash.
3698
3699- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3700		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3701		write commands.
3702
3703- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3704		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3705		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3706		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3707		optionally available.
3708
3709- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3710		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3711		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3712		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3713
3714- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3715		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3716		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3717		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3718		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3719		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3720		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3721		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3722
3723- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3724		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3725		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3726		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3727		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3728		on high Ethernet traffic.
3729		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3730
3731- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3732
3733	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3734	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3735	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3736	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3737	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3738
3739- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3740- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3741	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3742	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3743	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3744	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3745
3746	The format of the list is:
3747		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3748		access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
3749		attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
3750		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3751		list = entry[,list]
3752
3753	The type attributes are:
3754		s - String (default)
3755		d - Decimal
3756		x - Hexadecimal
3757		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3758		i - IP address
3759		m - MAC address
3760
3761	The access attributes are:
3762		a - Any (default)
3763		r - Read-only
3764		o - Write-once
3765		c - Change-default
3766
3767	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3768		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3769		envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3770
3771	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3772		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3773		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3774		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
3775		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3776		".flags" variable.
3777
3778- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3779	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3780	access flags.
3781
3782- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
3783	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
3784	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
3785	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
3786	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
3787	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
3788	must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
3789	its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
3790	your board please report the problem and send patches!
3791
3792- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
3793	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
3794	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
3795	the value can be calulated on a given board.
3796
3797The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3798of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3799following configurations:
3800
3801- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3802
3803	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3804	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3805
3806- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
3807
3808	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
3809
3810	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
3811	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
3812	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
3813	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
3814	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
3815	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
3816	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
3817	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
3818	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
3819	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
3820	   between U-Boot and the environment.
3821
3822	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3823
3824	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
3825	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
3826	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
3827	   for this sector is given here.
3828
3829	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
3830
3831	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3832
3833	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
3834	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
3835	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
3836
3837	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
3838
3839	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
3840
3841
3842	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
3843	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
3844	   the environment.
3845
3846	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3847
3848	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
3849	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
3850	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
3851	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
3852
3853	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
3854	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
3855	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
3856	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
3857	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
3858	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
3859	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
3860	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
3861	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
3862
3863	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
3864	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
3865
3866	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
3867	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
3868	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
3869	   a "saveenv" operation.
3870
3871BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
3872source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
3873accordingly!
3874
3875
3876- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
3877
3878	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
3879	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
3880	environment.
3881
3882	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3883	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3884
3885	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
3886	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
3887	  can just be read and written to, without any special
3888	  provision.
3889
3890BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3891in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
3892console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
3893U-Boot will hang.
3894
3895Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3896environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3897keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3898to save the current settings.
3899
3900
3901- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
3902
3903	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
3904	device and a driver for it.
3905
3906	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3907	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3908
3909	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
3910	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
3911
3912	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
3913	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
3914	  The default address is zero.
3915
3916	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
3917	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
3918	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
3919	  would require six bits.
3920
3921	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
3922	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
3923	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
3924
3925	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
3926	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
3927	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
3928
3929	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
3930	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
3931	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
3932	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
3933	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
3934	  byte chips.
3935
3936	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
3937	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
3938	  in the chip address.
3939
3940	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
3941	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
3942
3943	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
3944	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
3945	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
3946
3947	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
3948	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
3949	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
3950	  EEPROM. For example:
3951
3952	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
3953
3954	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
3955	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
3956
3957- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
3958
3959	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
3960	want to use for the environment.
3961
3962	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3963	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3964	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3965
3966	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
3967	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
3968	  at the specified address.
3969
3970- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
3971
3972	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
3973	want to use for the local device's environment.
3974
3975	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3976	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3977
3978	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
3979	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
3980	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
3981	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
3982
3983BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3984"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
3985environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3986but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
3987
3988- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
3989
3990	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
3991	for the environment.
3992
3993	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3994	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3995
3996	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
3997	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
3998	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3999
4000	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4001
4002	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4003	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4004	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4005	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4006	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4007
4008	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
4009
4010	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
4011	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
4012	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
4013	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
4014	  the range to be avoided.
4015
4016	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
4017
4018	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
4019	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
4020	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
4021	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
4022	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
4023
4024- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
4025
4026	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
4027	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
4028	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4029
4030- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
4031
4032	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
4033	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
4034	accesses, which is important on NAND.
4035
4036	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
4037
4038	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
4039
4040	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
4041
4042	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
4043	  environment in.
4044
4045	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
4046
4047	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
4048	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
4049	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
4050
4051	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
4052	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
4053
4054	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
4055	  when storing the env in UBI.
4056
4057- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
4058
4059	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
4060	environment.
4061
4062	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4063
4064	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4065
4066	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4067
4068	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4069	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4070	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4071
4072	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4073	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4074
4075	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4076	  area within the specified MMC device.
4077
4078	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4079	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4080	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4081	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4082	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4083	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4084	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4085
4086	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4087	  MMC sector boundary.
4088
4089	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4090
4091	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4092	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4093	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4094	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4095
4096	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4097	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4098
4099	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4100	  an MMC sector boundary.
4101
4102	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4103
4104	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4105	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4106	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4107
4108- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
4109
4110	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4111	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4112	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4113	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4114	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4115	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4116	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4117
4118Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
4119has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
4120created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
4121until then to read environment variables.
4122
4123The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4124is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4125with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4126necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4127"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4128have any device yet where we could complain.]
4129
4130Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4131the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
4132use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
4133
4134- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
4135		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
4136
4137		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
4138		      also needs to be defined.
4139
4140- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
4141		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
4142
4143- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
4144		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
4145		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
4146		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
4147		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
4148		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
4149
4150- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
4151		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
4152		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
4153		to do this.
4154
4155- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
4156		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
4157		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
4158		present.
4159
4160Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
4161---------------------------------------------------
4162
4163- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
4164		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
4165
4166- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
4167		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
4168
4169		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4170		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
4171		the IMMR register after a reset.
4172
4173- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4174		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4175		PowerPC SOCs.
4176
4177- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4178		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4179		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4180
4181		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4182		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4183
4184- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4185		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
4186		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
4187		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
4188		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
4189		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
4190		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4191
4192		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4193			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4194
4195- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
4196		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
4197		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
4198		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4199		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4200
4201- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4202		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
4203		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4204		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4205
4206- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4207		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4208		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
4209
4210- Floppy Disk Support:
4211		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
4212
4213		the default drive number (default value 0)
4214
4215		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4216
4217		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4218		(default value 1)
4219
4220		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4221
4222		defines the offset of register from address. It
4223		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4224		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4225
4226		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4227		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4228		default value.
4229
4230		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4231		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4232		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4233		source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
4234		initializations.
4235
4236- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4237		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4238		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4239		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4240		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4241		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4242		is requierd.
4243
4244- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4245		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4246		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4247
4248- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4249
4250		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4251		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4252		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4253		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4254		will become available only after programming the
4255		memory controller and running certain initialization
4256		sequences.
4257
4258		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4259		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4260		- MPC824X: data cache
4261		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4262
4263- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4264
4265		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4266		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4267		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4268		data is located at the end of the available space
4269		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4270		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4271		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4272		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4273
4274	Note:
4275		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4276		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4277		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4278		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4279		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.
4280

4315		Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing)
4316
4317- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4318		enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4319		define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2]
4320
4321- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4322		enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4323		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1]

4331		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4332		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4333
4334- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4335		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4336		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4337		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.
4338		cpm_8260.h.
4339
4340- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,

4348		Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
4349
4350- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4351		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4352		required.
4353
4354- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4355		Only scan through and get the devices on the busses.
4356		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4357		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4358		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4359		by coreboot or similar.
4360
4361- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4362		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4363

4419		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4420		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4421
4422- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4423		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4424
4425- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4426		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4427		to the given FEC; i. e.
4428			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4429		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4430
4431		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4432
4433- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4434		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4435		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4436
4437- CONFIG_RMII
4438		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4439		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4440		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4441
4442- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4443		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4444		The syntax is:
4445
4446		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4447
4448		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4449		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4450		area should have.
4451
4452- CONFIG_LOOPW
4453		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4454		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4455
4456- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4457		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4458		"md/mw" commands.
4459		Examples:
4460
4461		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4462		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4463
4464		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4465		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4466
4467		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4468		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4469
4470- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4471		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4472		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4473		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4474		relocate itself into RAM.
4475
4476		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4477		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4478		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4479		these initializations itself.
4480
4481- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4482		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4483		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4484		compiling a NAND SPL.
4485
4486- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4487		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4488		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4489		It is loaded by the SPL.
4490
4491- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4492		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4493		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4494		previous 4k of the .text section.
4495
4496- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4497		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4498		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4499		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4500		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4501		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4502		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4503		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4504
4505- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4506  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4507		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4508		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4509		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4510
4511- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4512		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4513		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4514
4515- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4516		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4517
4518		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4519
4520- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4521		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4522
4523- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
4524		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
4525		driver that uses this:
4526		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
4527
4528Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4529-----------------------------------
4530
4531The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4532loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4533This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4534are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4535within that device.
4536
4537- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4538	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
4539	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4540	is also specified.
4541
4542- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
4543	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
4544	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4545	is also specified.
4546
4547- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4548	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4549	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4550	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4551	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4552
4553- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4554	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4555	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4556	virtual address in NOR flash.
4557
4558- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4559	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4560	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4561
4562- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4563	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4564	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4565
4566- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4567	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4568	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4569
4570- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4571	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4572	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4573	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4574	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4575	master's memory space.
4576
4577Building the Software:
4578======================
4579
4580Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4581and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4582all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4583(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4584recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4585which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4586
4587If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4588have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4589you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4590Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4591necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4592
4593	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4594	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
4595
4596Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4597      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4598      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4599      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
4600
4601       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4602
4603      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4604      be executed on computers running Windows.
4605
4606U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4607sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4608is done by typing:
4609
4610	make NAME_config
4611
4612where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
4613rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
4614
4615Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4616      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
4617      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
4618      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
4619      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4620
4621      make TQM823L_config
4622	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4623
4624      make TQM823L_LCD_config
4625	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
4626
4627      etc.
4628
4629
4630Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
4631images ready for download to / installation on your system:
4632
4633- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
4634- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
4635- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
4636
4637By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4638in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4639this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4640
46411. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4642
4643	make O=/tmp/build distclean
4644	make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
4645	make O=/tmp/build all
4646
46472. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
4648
4649	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4650	make distclean
4651	make NAME_config
4652	make all
4653
4654Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
4655variable.
4656
4657
4658Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
4659for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
4660native "make".
4661
4662
4663If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
4664to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
4665steps:
4666
46671.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
4668    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
4669    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
46702.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
4671    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
4672    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
46733.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
4674    your board
46753.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
4676    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
46774.  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
46785.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
4679    to be installed on your target system.
46806.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
4681    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
4682
4683
4684Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
4685==============================================================
4686
4687If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
4688or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
4689provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
4690the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
4691official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
4692
4693But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
4694cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
4695the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
4696just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
4697for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
4698select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
4699environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
4700you can type
4701
4702	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4703
4704or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
4705
4706	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
4707
4708When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
4709U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
4710setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
4711built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
4712<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
4713location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
4714variable. For example:
4715
4716	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4717	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
4718	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4719
4720With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
4721log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
4722during the whole build process.

4777Monitor Commands - Detailed Description:
4778========================================
4779
4780TODO.
4781
4782For now: just type "help <command>".
4783
4784
4785Environment Variables:
4786======================
4787
4788U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
4789can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
4790
4791Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
4792"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
4793without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
4794environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
4795working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
4796environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
4797
4798Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
4799
4800List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
4801
4802  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
4803
4804  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
4805
4806  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
4807
4808  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
4809
4810  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
4811
4812  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4813		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4814		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
4815		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
4816		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
4817		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
4818		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
4819		  bootm_mapsize.
4820
4821  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
4822		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
4823		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
4824		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
4825		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
4826		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
4827		  used otherwise.
4828
4829  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4830		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4831		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
4832		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
4833		  environment variable.
4834
4835  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
4836		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
4837		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
4838
4839  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
4840		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
4841		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
4842		  load any image using TFTP
4843
4844  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
4845		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
4846		  be automatically started (by internally calling
4847		  "bootm")
4848
4849		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
4850		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
4851		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
4852		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
4853		  data.
4854
4855  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
4856		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
4857		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
4858		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
4859		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
4860		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
4861		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
4862		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
4863		  access it during the boot procedure.
4864
4865		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
4866		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
4867		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
4868		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
4869		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
4870		  must be accessible by the kernel.
4871
4872  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
4873		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
4874		  defined.
4875
4876  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
4877		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
4878		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
4879		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
4880		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
4881
4882  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
4883		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4884		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4885		  is usually what you want since it allows for
4886		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4887		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
4888		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
4889		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4890		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4891		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4892		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
4893
4894		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
4895		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4896		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4897		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
4898		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4899		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4900
4901		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4902
4903		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
4904		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
4905		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
4906		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
4907		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
4908		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
4909		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
4910
4911  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4912
4913  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
4914		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
4915
4916  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4917
4918  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4919
4920  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
4921
4922  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
4923
4924  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
4925
4926  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4927
4928  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4929		  For example you can do the following
4930
4931		  => setenv ethact FEC
4932		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
4933		  => setenv ethact SCC
4934		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4935
4936  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4937		  available network interfaces.
4938		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4939
4940  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4941		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
4942		  When set to "once" the network operation will
4943		  fail when all the available network interfaces
4944		  are tried once without success.
4945		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4946		  themselves.
4947
4948  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
4949
4950  silent_linux  - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by
4951		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
4952		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
4953		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
4954		  is silent.
4955
4956  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
4957		  UDP source port.
4958
4959  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
4960		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
4961
4962  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4963		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4964
4965  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4966		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4967		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4968		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4969		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4970		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4971		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
4972
4973  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
4974		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
4975		  VLAN tagged frames.
4976
4977The following image location variables contain the location of images
4978used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4979not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4980variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4981server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4982loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4983flash or offset in NAND flash.
4984
4985*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4986boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
4987boards use these variables for other purposes.
4988
4989Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
4990-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
4991u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
4992Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
4993device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
4994ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
4995
4996The following environment variables may be used and automatically
4997updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
4998depending the information provided by your boot server:
4999
5000  bootfile	- see above
5001  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
5002  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5003  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5004  hostname	- Target hostname
5005  ipaddr	- see above
5006  netmask	- Subnet Mask
5007  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5008  serverip	- see above
5009
5010
5011There are two special Environment Variables:
5012
5013  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
5014		  as type string and/or serial number
5015  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
5016
5017These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5018the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5019once they have been set once.
5020
5021
5022Further special Environment Variables:
5023
5024  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5025		  with the "version" command. This variable is
5026		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
5027
5028
5029Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
5030only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
5031
5032
5033Callback functions for environment variables:
5034---------------------------------------------
5035
5036For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5037when their values are changed.  This functionailty allows functions to
5038be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
5039deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5040effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5041
5042The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5043U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5044
5045These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
5046static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5047in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5048associations.  The list must be in the following format:
5049
5050	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5051	list = entry[,list]
5052
5053If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5054Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5055
5056Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5057with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
5058override any association in the static list. You can define
5059CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5060".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5061
5062
5063Command Line Parsing:
5064=====================
5065
5066There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5067the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5068
5069Old, simple command line parser:
5070--------------------------------
5071
5072- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5073- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5074- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5075- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5076  for example:
5077	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5078- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5079	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5080
5081Hush shell:
5082-----------
5083
5084- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5085  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5086  until...do...done, ...
5087- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5088  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5089  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5090  command
5091
5092General rules:
5093--------------
5094
5095(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5096    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5097    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5098    executed anyway.
5099
5100(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5101    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5102    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5103    variables are not executed.
5104
5105Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5106=======================================
5107
5108Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5109such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5110"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5111
5112Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5113MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5114"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5115
5116If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5117in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5118ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5119variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5120
5121o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5122  environment, the SROM's address is used.
5123
5124o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5125  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5126  used.
5127
5128o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5129  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5130
5131o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5132  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5133  warning is printed.
5134
5135o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5136  is raised.
5137
5138If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5139will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
5140may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5141The naming convention is as follows:
5142"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5143
5144Image Formats:
5145==============
5146
5147U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5148images in two formats:
5149
5150New uImage format (FIT)
5151-----------------------
5152
5153Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5154to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5155components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5156SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5157
5158
5159Old uImage format
5160-----------------
5161
5162Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5163preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5164details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5165
5166* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5167  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5168  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5169  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5170  INTEGRITY).
5171* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5172  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5173  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5174* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5175* Load Address
5176* Entry Point
5177* Image Name
5178* Image Timestamp
5179
5180The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5181and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5182CRC32 checksums.
5183
5184
5185Linux Support:
5186==============
5187
5188Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5189easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5190U-Boot.
5191
5192U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5193special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5194"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5195instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5196serves several purposes:
5197
5198- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5199  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5200  Flash memory footprint)
5201
5202- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5203  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5204
5205- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5206  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5207  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5208  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5209  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5210  software is easier now.
5211
5212
5213Linux HOWTO:
5214============
5215
5216Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5217---------------------------------------
5218
5219U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5220configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5221(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5222Linux :-).
5223
5224But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5225
5226Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5227include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5228Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5229and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5230as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5231
5232
5233Configuring the Linux kernel:
5234-----------------------------
5235
5236No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5237device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5238
5239
5240Building a Linux Image:
5241-----------------------
5242
5243With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5244not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5245"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5246U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5247which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5248100% compatible format.
5249
5250Example:
5251
5252	make TQM850L_config
5253	make oldconfig
5254	make dep
5255	make uImage
5256
5257The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5258encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5259CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5260
5261* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5262
5263* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5264
5265	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5266				 -R .note -R .comment \
5267				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5268
5269* compress the binary image:
5270
5271	gzip -9 linux.bin
5272
5273* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5274
5275	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5276		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5277		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5278
5279
5280The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5281with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5282combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5283byte header containing information about target architecture,
5284operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5285stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5286
5287"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5288print the header information, or to build new images.
5289
5290In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5291contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5292checksum verification:
5293
5294	tools/mkimage -l image
5295	  -l ==> list image header information
5296
5297The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5298from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5299
5300	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5301		      -n name -d data_file image
5302	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5303	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5304	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5305	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5306	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5307	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5308	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5309	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5310
5311Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5312address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5313kernel version:
5314
5315- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5316- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5317
5318So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5319
5320	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5321	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5322	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5323	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5324	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5325	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5326	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5327	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5328	Load Address: 0x00000000
5329	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5330
5331To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5332
5333	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5334	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5335	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5336	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5337	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5338	Load Address: 0x00000000
5339	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5340
5341NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5342speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5343needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5344need to be uncompressed:
5345
5346	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5347	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5348	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5349	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5350	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5351	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5352	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5353	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5354	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5355	Load Address: 0x00000000
5356	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5357
5358
5359Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5360when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5361
5362	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5363	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5364	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5365	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5366	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5367	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5368	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5369	Load Address: 0x00000000
5370	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5371
5372The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5373option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5374option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5375from the image:
5376
5377	tools/dumpimage -i image -p position data_file
5378	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file', \
5379	   indexed by 'position'

5382Installing a Linux Image:
5383-------------------------
5384
5385To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5386you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5387
5388	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5389
5390The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5391image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5392address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5393specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5394command.
5395
5396Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5397TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5398
5399	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5400
5401	.......... done
5402	Erased 8 sectors
5403
5404	=> loads 40100000

5410	[file transfer complete]
5411	[connected]
5412	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5413
5414
5415You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5416this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5417corruption happened:
5418
5419	=> imi 40100000
5420

5430Boot Linux:
5431-----------
5432
5433The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5434memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5435of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5436parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5437"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5438
5439
5440	=> printenv bootargs
5441	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5442
5443	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5444
5445	=> printenv bootargs
5446	bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

5516First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section
5517titled "Linux Kernel Interface" above for a more in depth explanation. The
5518following is an example of how to start a kernel and pass an updated

5562More About U-Boot Image Types:
5563------------------------------
5564
5565U-Boot supports the following image types:
5566
5567   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5568	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5569	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5570	the Standalone Program.
5571   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5572	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5573	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5574	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5575	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5576   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5577	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5578	being started.
5579   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5580	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5581	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5582	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5583	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5584	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5585
5586	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5587	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5588	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5589	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5590	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5591	a multiple of 4 bytes).
5592
5593   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5594	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5595	flash memory.
5596
5597   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5598	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5599	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5600	as command interpreter.
5601
5602Booting the Linux zImage:
5603-------------------------
5604
5605On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5606using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5607as the syntax of "bootm" command.
5608
5609Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5610kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5611address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5612format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
5613
5614
5615Standalone HOWTO:
5616=================
5617
5618One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5619run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5620U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5621
5622Two simple examples are included with the sources:
5623
5624"Hello World" Demo:
5625-------------------
5626
5627'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5628application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5629It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5630like that:
5631
5632	=> loads
5633	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5634	~>examples/hello_world.srec
5635	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
5636	[file transfer complete]
5637	[connected]
5638	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
5639
5640	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
5641	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
5642	Hello World
5643	argc = 7
5644	argv[0] = "40004"
5645	argv[1] = "Hello"
5646	argv[2] = "World!"
5647	argv[3] = "This"
5648	argv[4] = "is"
5649	argv[5] = "a"
5650	argv[6] = "test."
5651	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
5652	Hit any key to exit ...
5653
5654	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
5655
5656Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
5657handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
5658Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
5659The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
5660character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
5661controlled by the following keys:
5662
5663	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
5664	b - enable interrupts and start timer
5665	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
5666	q - quit application
5667
5668	=> loads

5703Minicom warning:
5704================
5705
5706Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
5707"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
5708consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
5709Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
5710especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
5711use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
5712http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
5713for help with kermit.
5714
5715
5716Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
5717configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
5718
5719	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
5720	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N

5724NetBSD Notes:
5725=============
5726
5727Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
5728(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
5729
5730Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
5731NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
5732need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
5733Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
5734attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
5735missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
5736
5737	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
5738	# mkdir powerpc
5739	# ln -s powerpc machine
5740	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
5741	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
5742
5743Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
5744and U-Boot include files.
5745
5746Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
5747stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
5748proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
5749tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
5750meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
5751
5752
5753Implementation Internals:
5754=========================
5755
5756The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
5757implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
5758inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
5759hardware.
5760
5761
5762Initial Stack, Global Data:
5763---------------------------
5764
5765The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
5766starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
5767system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
5768This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
5769is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
5770at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
5771options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
5772models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
5773MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
5774locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
5775
5776	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
5777	U-Boot mailing list:
5778
5779	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
5780	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
5781	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
5782	...
5783
5784	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
5785	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
5786	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
5787	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
5788	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
5789	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
5790	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
5791	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
5792
5793	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
5794	is another option for the system designer to use as an
5795	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
5796	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
5797	board designers haven't used it for something that would
5798	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
5799	used.
5800
5801	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
5802	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
5803	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
5804	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
5805	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
5806	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
5807	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
5808	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
5809	you get the config right.

5813
5814It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
5815code for the initialization procedures:
5816
5817* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
5818  to write it.
5819
5820* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
5821  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
5822  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
5823
5824* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
5825  that.
5826
5827Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
5828normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
5829turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
5830simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
5831functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
5832functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
5833the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
5834place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
5835reserve for this purpose.
5836
5837When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
5838relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
5839GCC's implementation.
5840
5841For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
5842	R1:	stack pointer
5843	R2:	reserved for system use
5844	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
5845	R5-R10: parameter passing
5846	R13:	small data area pointer
5847	R30:	GOT pointer
5848	R31:	frame pointer
5849
5850	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
5851	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
5852	going back and forth between asm and C)
5853
5854    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
5855
5856    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
5857    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
5858    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
5859    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
5860    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
5861    624 text + 127 data).
5862
5863On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
5864	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
5865
5866    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
5867
5868On ARM, the following registers are used:
5869
5870	R0:	function argument word/integer result
5871	R1-R3:	function argument word
5872	R9:	platform specific
5873	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
5874	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
5875	R12:	temporary workspace
5876	R13:	stack pointer
5877	R14:	link register
5878	R15:	program counter
5879
5880    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
5881
5882    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
5883
5884On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
5885	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
5886
5887    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
5888
5889    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
5890    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
5891
5892On NDS32, the following registers are used:
5893
5894	R0-R1:	argument/return
5895	R2-R5:	argument
5896	R15:	temporary register for assembler
5897	R16:	trampoline register
5898	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
5899	R29:	global pointer (GP)
5900	R30:	link register (LP)
5901	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
5902	PC:	program counter (PC)
5903
5904    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
5905
5906NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
5907or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
5908
5909Memory Management:
5910------------------
5911
5912U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5913MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5914
5915The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5916controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5917memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5918physical memory banks.
5919
5920U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5921TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5922booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5923to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
5924memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5925configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5926Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5927
5928Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5929of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5930
5931So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5932this:
5933
5934	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5935	      :
5936	0x0000 1FFF
5937	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5938	      :
5939	      :
5940
5941	      :
5942	      :
5943	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5944	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5945	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5946	      :
5947	0x00FD FFFF
5948	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5949	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5950	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5951	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5952
5953
5954System Initialization:
5955----------------------
5956
5957In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
5958(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5959configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
5960To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5961To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5962initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5963which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
5964part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
5965the caches and the SIU.
5966
5967Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5968preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5969(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5970on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5971programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5972simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5973banks.
5974
5975When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
5976different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5977bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
59780x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5979contiguous memory starting from 0.
5980
5981Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5982and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5983Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5984pages, and the final stack is set up.
5985
5986Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5987until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5988running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5989new address in RAM.

6066Coding Standards:
6067-----------------
6068
6069All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6070coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6071"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6072
6073Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6074MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6075reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6076sources.
6077
6078Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6079Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6080in your code.
6081
6082Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6083- remove any trailing white space
6084- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6085- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6086- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6087- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6088
6089Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6090with a request to reformat the changes.
6091
6092
6093Submitting Patches:
6094-------------------
6095
6096Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6097establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6098may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6099
6100Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6101
6102Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6103see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6104
6105When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6106it:
6107
6108* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6109  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6110  patch actually fixes something.
6111
6112* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6113  implementation.
6114
6115* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6116
6117* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
6118
6119* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6120  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6121
6122* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6123  document these in the README file.
6124
6125* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6126  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6127  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6128  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6129  with some other mail clients.
6130
6131  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6132  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6133  GNU diff.
6134
6135  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6136  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6137  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6138  affected files).
6139
6140  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6141  and compressed attachments must not be used.
6142
6143* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6144  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6145
6146* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6147  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6148
6149
6150Notes:
6151
6152* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6153  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6154  for any of the boards.
6155
6156* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6157  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6158  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6159
6160* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6161  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6162  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6163  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6164  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6165  modification.
6166
6167* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6168  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6169  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6170  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
