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:

224Software Configuration:
225=======================
226
227Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
228rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
229
230There are two classes of configuration variables:
231
232* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
233  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
234  "CONFIG_".
235
236* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
237  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
238  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
239  "CONFIG_SYS_".
240
241Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
242identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
243do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
244links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
245as an example here.
246
247
248Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
249---------------------------------------------------
250
251For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
252configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
253
254Example: For a TQM823L module type:
255
256	cd u-boot
257	make TQM823L_config
258
259For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
260e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
261directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
262
263
264Configuration Options:
265----------------------
266
267Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
268such information is kept in a configuration file
269"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
270
271Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
272"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
273
274
275Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
276kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
277build a config tool - later.
278
279
280The following options need to be configured:
281
282- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
283
284- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
285
286- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
287		Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
288
289- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
290		Define exactly one of
291		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
292--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
293		CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
294		CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
295
296- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
297		Define exactly one of
298		CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
299
300- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
301		Define one or more of
302		CONFIG_CMA302
303
304- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
305		Define one or more of
306		CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT	- update a character position on
307					  the LCD display every second with
308					  a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
309
310- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined)
311		CONFIG_ADSTYPE
312		Possible values are:
313			CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS	- original MPC8260ADS
314			CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS	- MPC8266ADS
315			CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS	- PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR
316			CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS	- MPC8272ADS
317
318- Marvell Family Member
319		CONFIG_SYS_MVFS		- define it if you want to enable
320					  multiple fs option at one time
321					  for marvell soc family
322
323- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
324		Define exactly one of
325		CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
326
327- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
328		CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ	- deprecated: CPU clock if
329					  get_gclk_freq() cannot work
330					  e.g. if there is no 32KHz
331					  reference PIT/RTC clock
332		CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK	- PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
333					  or XTAL/EXTAL)
334
335- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
336		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
337		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
338		CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
339			See doc/README.MPC866
340
341		CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
342
343		Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
344		of relying on the correctness of the configured
345		values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
346		the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
347		that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
348		RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
349
350		CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
351
352		Define this option if you want to enable the
353		ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
354
355- 85xx CPU Options:
356		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
357
358		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
359		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
360		compliance, among other possible reasons.
361
362		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
363
364		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
365		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
366		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
367
368		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
369
370		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
371		tree nodes for the given platform.
372
373		CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
374
375		Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
376		around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
377		support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
378		breakpoints and single stepping do not work.  The value of this
379		symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
380		purpose.
381
382		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
383
384		Enables a workaround for erratum A004510.  If set,
385		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
386		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
387
388		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
389		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
390
391		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
392		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
393
394		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
395		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
396		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
397		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
398
399		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
400		this erratum.
401
402		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
403		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
404		requred during NOR boot.
405
406		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
407
408		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
409		according to the A004510 workaround.
410
411		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
412		This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
413		connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
414
415		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
416		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
417		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
418
419		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
420		This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
421		connected to the DSP core.
422
423		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
424		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
425
426		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_EMU
427		Specify emulator support for DDR. Some DDR features such as
428		deskew training are not available.
429
430- Generic CPU options:
431		CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
432
433		Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
434		values is arch specific.
435
436- Intel Monahans options:
437		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO
438
439		Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator
440		ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core
441		frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz.
442
443		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO
444
445		Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator
446		ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and
447		2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied
448		by this value.
449
450- MIPS CPU options:
451		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET
452
453		Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack
454		pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before
455		relocation.
456
457		CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE
458
459		Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU.
460		See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h.
461		Possible values are:
462			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA
463			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA
464			CONF_CM_UNCACHED
465			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT
466			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE
467			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW
468			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW
469			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
470
471		CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
472
473		Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
474		See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
475
476		CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
477
478		Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
479		XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
480		be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
481
482- ARM options:
483		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
484
485		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
486		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
487
488		CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
489
490		Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
491		set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
492		better code density. For ARM architectures that support
493		Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
494		GCC.
495
496		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
497		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
498		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
499		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
500
501		If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
502		during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
503		workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
504		exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
505		set these options unless they apply!
506
507- CPU timer options:
508		CONFIG_SYS_HZ
509
510		The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer().
511		get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG
512		option must be set to 1000.
513
514- Linux Kernel Interface:
515		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
516
517		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
518		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
519		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
520		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
521		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
522		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
523		Linux kernel.
524		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
525		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
526		default environment.
527
528		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
529
530		When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions
531		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
532		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
533
534		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
535
536		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
537		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
538		concepts).
539
540		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
541		 * New libfdt-based support
542		 * Adds the "fdt" command
543		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
544
545		OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
546			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
547		OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
548			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
549		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
550		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
551
552		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
553		addresses
554
555		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
556
557		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
558		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
559
560		CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
561
562		This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
563		param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
564
565		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
566
567		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
568		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
569		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
570		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
571		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
572		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
573
574		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
575
576		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
577		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
578		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
579		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
580		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
581		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
582		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
583
584- vxWorks boot parameters:
585
586		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
587		environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
588		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
589
590		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
591		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
592		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
593		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
594
595		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
596
597		Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
598
599		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
600		the defaults discussed just above.
601
602- Cache Configuration:
603		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
604		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
605		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
606
607- Cache Configuration for ARM:
608		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
609				      controller
610		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
611					controller register space
612
613- Serial Ports:
614		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
615
616		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
617
618		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
619
620		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
621
622		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
623
624		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
625		the clock speed of the UARTs.
626
627		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
628
629		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
630		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
631		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
632
633		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
634
635		Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
636		have separate receive and transmit line control registers.  Set
637		this variable to initialize the extra register.
638
639		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
640
641		On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
642		boot loader that has already initialized the UART.  Define this
643		variable to flush the UART at init time.
644
645
646- Console Interface:
647		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
648		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
649		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
650		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
651
652		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
653		port routines must be defined elsewhere
654		(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
655
656		CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
657		Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
658		defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
659			VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN	graphic memory organisation
660						(default big endian)
661			VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL	graphic chip supports
662						rectangle fill
663						(cf. smiLynxEM)
664			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
665						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
666			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
667						(cols=pitch)
668			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS	visible pixel rows
669			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE	bytes per pixel
670			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
671						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
672			VIDEO_FB_ADRS		framebuffer address
673			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
674						(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
675			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
676						(i.e. i8042_tstc)
677			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
678						(i.e. i8042_getc)
679			CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR	cursor drawing on/off
680						(requires blink timer
681						cf. i8042.c)
682			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
683			CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME	display time/date info in
684						upper right corner
685						(requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
686			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO	display Linux logo in
687						upper left corner
688			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO	use bmp_logo.h instead of
689						linux_logo.h for logo.
690						Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
691			CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
692						additional board info beside
693						the logo
694
695		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
696		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
697		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
698
699		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
700		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
701		environment 'console=serial'.
702
703		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
704		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
705		the "silent" environment variable. See
706		doc/README.silent for more information.
707
708- Console Baudrate:
709		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
710		Select one of the baudrates listed in
711		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
712		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
713
714- Console Rx buffer length
715		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
716		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
717		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
718		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
719		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
720		the SMC.
721
722- Pre-Console Buffer:
723		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
724		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
725		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
726		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
727		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
728		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
729		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
730		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
731		earlier bytes are discarded.
732
733		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
734		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
735
736- Safe printf() functions
737		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
738		the printf() functions. These are defined in
739		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
740		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
741		If this option is not given then these functions will
742		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
743		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
744
745- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
746		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
747		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
748		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
749		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
750
751		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
752		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
753		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
754		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
755		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
756		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
757		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
758		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
759		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
760		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
761		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
762		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
763
764- Autoboot Command:
765		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
766		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
767		define a command string that is automatically executed
768		when no character is read on the console interface
769		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
770
771		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
772		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
773		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
774		environment value "bootargs".
775
776		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
777		The value of these goes into the environment as
778		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
779		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
780		RAM and NFS.
781
782- Pre-Boot Commands:
783		CONFIG_PREBOOT
784
785		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
786		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
787		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
788		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
789		entering interactive mode.
790
791		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
792		automatically generated or modified. For an example
793		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
794		modified when the user holds down a certain
795		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
796		booting the systems
797
798- Serial Download Echo Mode:
799		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
800		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
801		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
802		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
803		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
804		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
805		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
806
807- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
808		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
809		Select one of the baudrates listed in
810		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
811
812- Monitor Functions:
813		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
814		from the build by using the #include files
815		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
816		commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
817		and augmenting with additional #define's
818		for wanted commands.
819
820		The default command configuration includes all commands
821		except those marked below with a "*".

924		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
925		support you can write:
926
927		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
928		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
929
930	Other Commands:
931		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
932
933	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
934		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
935		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
936		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
937		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
938		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
939		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
940		initial stack and some data.
941
942
943		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
944
945- Regular expression support:
946		CONFIG_REGEX
947                If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
948                the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
949                which adds regex support to some commands, as for
950                example "env grep" and "setexpr".
951
952- Device tree:
953		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
954		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
955		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
956		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
957		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
958		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
959
960		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
961		be done using one of the two options below:
962
963		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
964		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
965		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
966		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
967		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
968		the global data structure as gd->blob.
969
970		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
971		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
972		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
973		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
974
975			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
976
977		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
978		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
979		still use the individual files if you need something more
980		exotic.
981
982- Watchdog:
983		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
984		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
985		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
986		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
987		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
988		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
989		available, then no further board specific code should
990		be needed to use it.
991
992		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
993		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
994		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
995		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
996
997- U-Boot Version:
998		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
999		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1000		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1001		version as printed by the "version" command.
1002		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1003		next reset.
1004
1005- Real-Time Clock:
1006
1007		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1008		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1009		following options:
1010
1011		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1012		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1013		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1014		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1015		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1016		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1017		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1018		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1019		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1020		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC

1297		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1298		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1299		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1300		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1301		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1302		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1303		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1304		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1305		a Linux host by
1306		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1307		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1308		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following

1320			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1321			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1322			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1323			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1324			speed.

1341		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1342		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1343		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1344		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.

1366		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1367		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1368		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1369		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1370		viewport is supported.
1371		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1372		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1373		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1374		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1375		the appropriate value in Hz.
1376

1413		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1414		one that would help mostly the developer.
1415
1416		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1417		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1418		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1419		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1420		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1421
1422		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1423		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1424		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1425		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1426		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1427		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1428
1429- Journaling Flash filesystem support:

1440		function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1441
1442		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1443		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1444		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1445		have not defined a custom partition
1446

1448		CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1449
1450		Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1451		file in FAT formatted partition.

1453		This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1454		user to write files to FAT.
1455
1456CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1457		CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1458
1459		Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot

1489
1490		CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1491		Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1492		video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1493		(1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1494		assumed.
1495
1496		For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1497		selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1498		are possible:

1512		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1513
1514
1515		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1516		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1517		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1518		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1519
1520		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1521		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1522		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1523		support, and should also define these other macros:
1524
1525			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1526			CONFIG_VIDEO
1527			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1528			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1529			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1530			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1531			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1532			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1533
1534		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1535		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1536		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1537		description of this variable.
1538
1539		CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
1540
1541		Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1542		are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1543		driver.
1544
1545
1546- Keyboard Support:
1547		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1548
1549		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1550		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1551		defined in your board-specific files.
1552		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1553
1554- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1555
1556		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1557		display); also select one of the supported displays
1558		by defining one of these:
1559
1560		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1561
1562			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1563
1564		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1565
1566			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1567
1568		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1569
1570			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1571			Active, color, single scan.
1572
1573		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1574
1575			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1576			Active, color, single scan.
1577
1578		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1579
1580			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1581			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1582
1583		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1584
1585			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1586			Active, color, single scan.
1587
1588		CONFIG_HLD1045
1589
1590			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1591			Active, color, single scan.
1592
1593		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1594
1595			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1596			or
1597			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1598			or
1599			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1600
1601			320x240. Black & white.
1602
1603		Normally display is black on white background; define
1604		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1605
1606		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1607
1608		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1609		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1610		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1611		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1612		a per-section basis.
1613
1614		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1615
1616		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1617		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1618		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1619		is slow.
1620
1621		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1622
1623		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1624
1625		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1626
1627		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1628		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1629
1630- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1631
1632		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1633		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1634		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1635		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1636		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1637		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1638		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1639		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1640
1641		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1642
1643		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1644		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1645		(see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses).
1646		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1647		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1648		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1649		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1650		there is no need to set this option.
1651
1652		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1653
1654		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1655		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1656		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1657		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1658		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1659		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1660
1661		Example:
1662		setenv splashpos m,m
1663			=> image at center of screen
1664
1665		setenv splashpos 30,20
1666			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1667
1668		setenv splashpos -10,m
1669			=> vertically centered image
1670			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1671
1672- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1673
1674		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1675		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1676		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1677
1678- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1679
1680		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1681		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1682		bmp command.
1683
1684- Do compresssing for memory range:
1685		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1686
1687		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1688		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1689
1690- Compression support:
1691		CONFIG_GZIP
1692
1693		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1694
1695		CONFIG_BZIP2
1696
1697		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1698		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1699		compressed images are supported.
1700
1701		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1702		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1703		be at least 4MB.
1704
1705		CONFIG_LZMA
1706
1707		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1708		images is included.
1709
1710		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1711		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1712		formula:
1713
1714			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1715
1716		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1717		and Literal pos bits.
1718
1719		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1720		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1721		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1722		a very small buffer.
1723
1724		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1725		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1726		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1727
1728		CONFIG_LZO
1729
1730		If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
1731		is included.
1732
1733- MII/PHY support:
1734		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1735
1736		The address of PHY on MII bus.
1737
1738		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1739
1740		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1741
1742		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
1743
1744		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1745		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1746
1747		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1748
1749		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1750		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1751		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1752		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1753
1754		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1755
1756		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1757		command issued before MII status register can be read
1758
1759- Ethernet address:
1760		CONFIG_ETHADDR
1761		CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
1762		CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
1763		CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
1764		CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
1765		CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
1766
1767		Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1768		for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
1769		is not determined automatically.
1770
1771- IP address:
1772		CONFIG_IPADDR
1773
1774		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1775		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1776		determined through e.g. bootp.
1777		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
1778
1779- Server IP address:
1780		CONFIG_SERVERIP
1781
1782		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1783		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1784		(Environment variable "serverip")
1785
1786		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1787
1788		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1789		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1790
1791- Gateway IP address:
1792		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
1793
1794		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1795		default router where packets to other networks are
1796		sent to.
1797		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
1798
1799- Subnet mask:
1800		CONFIG_NETMASK
1801
1802		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
1803		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
1804		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
1805		forwarded through a router.
1806		(Environment variable "netmask")
1807
1808- Multicast TFTP Mode:
1809		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
1810
1811		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1812		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
1813		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
1814		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1815		multicast group.
1816
1817- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1818		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1819
1820		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1821		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1822		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1823		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1824		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1825		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1826		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1827		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
1828		following delays are inserted then:
1829
1830		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
1831		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
1832		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
1833		4th and following
1834		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
1835
1836- DHCP Advanced Options:
1837		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1838		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1839
1840		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
1841		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
1842		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
1843		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
1844		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
1845		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
1846		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1847		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
1848		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
1849		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
1850		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
1851		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
1852		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1853
1854		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1855		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1856
1857		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1858		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1859		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
1860		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1861		is not available.
1862
1863		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1864		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1865		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1866		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1867		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
1868		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
1869		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1870		is defined.
1871
1872		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1873		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1874		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
1875		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
1876		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
1877		option 12 to the DHCP server.
1878
1879		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1880
1881		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1882		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1883		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1884		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1885		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1886		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1887		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1888		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1889		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1890		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1891		this delay.
1892
1893 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1894		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1895		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1896		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1897		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1898
1899		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
1900
1901 - CDP Options:
1902		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
1903
1904		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
1905
1906		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
1907
1908		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
1909		of the device.
1910
1911		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1912
1913		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1914		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
1915		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
1916
1917		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
1918
1919		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
1920		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
1921
1922		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
1923
1924		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
1925
1926		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
1927
1928		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
1929
1930		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
1931
1932		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
1933
1934		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
1935
1936		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
1937		device in .1 of milliwatts.
1938
1939		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
1940
1941		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
1942
1943- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
1944
1945		Several configurations allow to display the current
1946		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
1947		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
1948		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
1949		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
1950		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
1951		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
1952		feature in U-Boot.
1953
1954- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
1955
1956		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
1957		on those systems that support this (optional)
1958		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
1959
1960- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
1961
1962		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
1963		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
1964		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
1965		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
1966		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
1967		interface.
1968
1969		ported i2c driver to the new framework:
1970		- drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c:
1971		  - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define
1972		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE
1973		    for defining speed and slave address
1974		  - activate second bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS2 define
1975		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_2 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_2
1976		    for defining speed and slave address
1977		  - activate third bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS3 define
1978		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_3 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_3
1979		    for defining speed and slave address
1980		  - activate fourth bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS4 define
1981		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_4 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_4
1982		    for defining speed and slave address
1983
1984		- drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c:
1985		  - activate i2c driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_FSL
1986		    define CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_OFFSET for setting the register
1987		    offset CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SPEED for the i2c speed and
1988		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SLAVE for the slave addr of the first
1989		    bus.
1990                  - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define
1991		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset
1992		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SPEED for the speed and
1993		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SLAVE for the slave address of the
1994		    second bus.
1995
1996		- drivers/i2c/tegra_i2c.c:
1997		 - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_TEGRA
1998		 - This driver adds 4 i2c buses with a fix speed from
1999		   100000 and the slave addr 0!
2000
2001		- drivers/i2c/ppc4xx_i2c.c
2002		  - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX
2003		  - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX_CH0 activate hardware channel 0
2004		  - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX_CH1 activate hardware channel 1
2005
2006		additional defines:
2007
2008		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2009		Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
2010		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2011		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2012		omit this define.
2013
2014		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2015		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2016		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2017		omit this define.
2018
2019		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2020		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2021		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2022		define.
2023
2024		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2025		hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2026		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2027		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2028		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2029
2030		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2031					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2032					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2033					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2034					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2035					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2036					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2037					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \
2038					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2039					}
2040
2041		which defines
2042			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
2043			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
2044			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2
2045			bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3
2046			bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4
2047			bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5
2048			bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux
2049			bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1
2050			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2051
2052		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2053
2054- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2055
2056		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2057		provides the following compelling advantages:
2058
2059		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2060		- approved multibus support
2061		- better i2c mux support
2062
2063		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2064
2065		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2066		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2067		for the selected CPU.
2068
2069		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2070		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2071		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2072		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2073		command line interface.
2074
2075		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2076
2077		There are several other quantities that must also be
2078		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2079
2080		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2081		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2082		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2083		the CPU's i2c node address).
2084
2085		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2086		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2087		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2088		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2089		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2090
2091		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2092
2093		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2094		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2095		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2096		commands until the slave device responds.
2097
2098		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2099
2100		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2101		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2102		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2103
2104		I2C_INIT
2105
2106		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2107		controller or configure ports.
2108
2109		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2110
2111		I2C_PORT
2112
2113		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2114		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2115		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2116
2117		I2C_ACTIVE
2118
2119		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2120		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2121		define can be null.
2122
2123		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2124
2125		I2C_TRISTATE
2126
2127		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2128		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2129		define can be null.
2130
2131		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2132
2133		I2C_READ
2134
2135		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2136		false if it is low.
2137
2138		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2139
2140		I2C_SDA(bit)
2141
2142		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2143		is false, it clears it (low).
2144
2145		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2146			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2147			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2148
2149		I2C_SCL(bit)
2150
2151		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2152		is false, it clears it (low).
2153
2154		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2155			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2156			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2157
2158		I2C_DELAY
2159
2160		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2161		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2162		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2163		like:
2164
2165		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2166
2167		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2168
2169		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2170		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2171		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2172		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2173
2174		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2175		the generic GPIO functions.
2176
2177		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2178
2179		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2180		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2181		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2182		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2183		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2184		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2185		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2186		is run early in the boot sequence.
2187
2188		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2189
2190		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2191		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2192		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2193		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2194		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2195		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2196		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2197		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2198
2199		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2200
2201		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2202		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2203		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2204
2205		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2206
2207		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2208		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2209		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2210		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2211
2212		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2213
2214		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2215		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2216		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2217		a 1D array of device addresses
2218
2219		e.g.
2220			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2221			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2222
2223		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2224
2225			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2226			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2227
2228		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2229
2230		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2231
2232		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2233		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2234
2235		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2236
2237		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2238		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2239
2240		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2241
2242		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2243		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2244
2245		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2246
2247		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2248		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2249		specified DTT device.
2250
2251		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2252
2253		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2254		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2255		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2256		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2257		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2258		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2259		the other.
2260
2261- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2262
2263		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2264		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2265		D/As on the SACSng board)
2266
2267		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2268
2269		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2270		only SH7757 is supported.
2271
2272		CONFIG_SPI_X
2273
2274		Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2275		(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2276
2277		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2278
2279		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2280		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2281		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2282		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2283		defined, the board configuration must define several
2284		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2285		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2286
2287		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2288
2289		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2290		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2291		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2292		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2293		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2294
2295		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2296
2297		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2298		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2299
2300- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2301
2302		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2303
2304		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2305
2306		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2307		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2308
2309		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2310
2311		Enables support for FPGA family.
2312		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2313
2314		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2315
2316		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2317
2318		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2319
2320		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2321
2322		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2323
2324		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2325		status by the configuration function. This option
2326		will require a board or device specific function to
2327		be written.
2328
2329		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2330
2331		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2332		configuration driver.
2333
2334		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2335		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2336
2337		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2338
2339		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2340		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2341		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2342		indicated a CRC error).
2343
2344		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2345
2346		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2347		after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2348		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2349		ms.
2350
2351		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2352
2353		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2354		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2355
2356		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2357
2358		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2359		200 ms.
2360
2361- Configuration Management:
2362		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2363
2364		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2365		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2366
2367- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2368
2369		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2370		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2371		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2372		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2373		protects these variables from casual modification by
2374		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2375		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2376		change this behaviour:
2377
2378		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2379		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2380		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2381		these parameters.
2382
2383		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2384		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2385		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2386		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2387		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2388		read-only.]
2389
2390		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2391		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2392		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2393		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2394
2395- Protected RAM:
2396		CONFIG_PRAM
2397
2398		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2399		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2400		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2401		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2402		this default value by defining an environment
2403		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2404		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2405		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2406		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2407		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2408		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2409		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2410
2411			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2412			saveenv
2413
2414		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2415		either, which results in a memory region that will
2416		not be affected by reboots.
2417
2418		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2419		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2420		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2421		following board configurations are known to be
2422		"pRAM-clean":
2423
2424			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2425			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2426			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2427
2428- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2429		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2430		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2431		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2432		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2433		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2434		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2435
2436- Error Recovery:
2437		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2438
2439		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2440		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2441		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2442		system where you want the system to reboot
2443		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2444		useful during development since you can try to debug
2445		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2446
2447		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2448
2449		This variable defines the number of retries for
2450		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2451		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2452		default value of 5 is used.
2453
2454		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2455
2456		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2457
2458		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2459
2460		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2461		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2462		try longer timeout such as
2463		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2464
2465- Command Interpreter:
2466		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2467
2468		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2469
2470		Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2471		for the "hush" shell.
2472
2473
2474		CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2475
2476		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2477		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2478		powerful command line syntax like
2479		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2480		constructs ("shell scripts").
2481
2482		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2483		with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2484
2485
2486		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2487
2488		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2489		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2490		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2491
2492	Note:
2493
2494		In the current implementation, the local variables
2495		space and global environment variables space are
2496		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2497		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2498		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2499		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2500		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2501
2502		Global environment variables are those you use
2503		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2504		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2505		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2506
2507		To store commands and special characters in a
2508		variable, please use double quotation marks
2509		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2510		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2511		symbols.
2512
2513- Commandline Editing and History:
2514		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2515
2516		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2517		commandline input operations
2518
2519- Default Environment:
2520		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2521
2522		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2523		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2524		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2525
2526		For example, place something like this in your
2527		board's config file:
2528
2529		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2530			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2531			"myvar2=value2\0"
2532
2533		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2534		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2535		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2536		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2537		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2538		You better know what you are doing here.
2539
2540		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2541		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2542		the environment like the "source" command or the
2543		boot command first.
2544
2545		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2546
2547		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2548		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2549		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2550
2551		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2552
2553		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2554		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2555		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2556		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2557		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2558
2559		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2560
2561		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2562		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2563		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2564
2565		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2566
2567		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2568		intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2569		that so that the environment is not available until
2570		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2571		this is instead controlled by the value of
2572		/config/load-environment.
2573
2574- DataFlash Support:
2575		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2576
2577		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2578		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2579		commands cp, md...
2580
2581- Serial Flash support
2582		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2583
2584		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2585		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2586
2587		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2588		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2589		commands.
2590
2591		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2592		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2593		flash is present on the system.
2594
2595		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2596		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2597		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2598		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2599
2600		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2601
2602		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2603		test ('sf test').
2604
2605		CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR		Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2606
2607		Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2608		support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2609
2610- SystemACE Support:
2611		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2612
2613		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2614		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2615		of the chip must also be defined in the
2616		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2617
2618		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2619		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2620
2621		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2622		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2623
2624- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2625		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2626
2627		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2628		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2629		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2630		number generator is used.
2631
2632		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2633		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
2634		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2635
2636		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2637		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2638		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2639		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2640		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2641		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2642		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2643
2644- Hashing support:
2645		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
2646
2647		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2648		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2649
2650		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
2651
2652		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2653		size a little.
2654
2655		CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2656		CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2657
2658		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2659		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2660
2661- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
2662		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
2663		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
2664		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
2665
2666		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
2667		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
2668		a boot from specific media.
2669
2670		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
2671		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
2672		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
2673		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
2674		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
2675
2676- Signing support:
2677		CONFIG_RSA
2678
2679		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
2680		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage/signature for more information.
2681
2682		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
2683		option.
2684
2685
2686- Show boot progress:
2687		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2688
2689		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2690		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2691		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2692		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2693		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2694		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2695
2696- Detailed boot stage timing
2697		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
2698		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
2699		of the boot process.
2700
2701		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
2702		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
2703		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
2704		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
2705		the limit, recording will stop.
2706
2707		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
2708		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
2709
2710		Timer summary in microseconds:
2711		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
2712			  0          0  reset
2713		  3,575,678  3,575,678  board_init_f start
2714		  3,575,695         17  arch_cpu_init A9
2715		  3,575,777         82  arch_cpu_init done
2716		  3,659,598     83,821  board_init_r start
2717		  3,910,375    250,777  main_loop
2718		 29,916,167 26,005,792  bootm_start
2719		 30,361,327    445,160  start_kernel
2720
2721		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
2722		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
2723		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
2724
2725		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
2726		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
2727		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
2728		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
2729		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
2730		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
2731		For example:
2732
2733		bootstage {
2734			154 {
2735				name = "board_init_f";
2736				mark = <3575678>;
2737			};
2738			170 {
2739				name = "lcd";
2740				accum = <33482>;
2741			};
2742		};
2743
2744		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

2898
2899- FIT image support:
2900		CONFIG_FIT
2901		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
2902
2903		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
2904		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
2905		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
2906		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
2907		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
2908		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
2909
2910		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
2911		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
2912		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See
2913		doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
2914
2915- Standalone program support:
2916		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
2917
2918		This option defines a board specific value for the
2919		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
2920		overwriting the architecture dependent default
2921		settings.
2922
2923- Frame Buffer Address:
2924		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
2925
2926		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
2927		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
2928		when using a graphics controller has separate video
2929		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
2930		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
2931		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
2932		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
2933		configured panel size.
2934
2935		Please see board_init_f function.
2936
2937- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
2938		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
2939		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
2940		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
2941
2942		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
2943		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
2944
2945- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
2946		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
2947
2948		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
2949		Needed for mtdparts command support.
2950
2951		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
2952
2953		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
2954		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
2955
2956- UBI support
2957		CONFIG_CMD_UBI
2958
2959		Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
2960		with the UBI flash translation layer
2961
2962		Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
2963
2964		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
2965
2966		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
2967		warnings and errors enabled.
2968
2969- UBIFS support
2970		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
2971
2972		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
2973		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
2974
2975		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO

3091		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
3092		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3093		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3094		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).

3122		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
3123		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
3124		to read U-Boot
3125
3126		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
3127		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from

3135		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
3136		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
3137
3138		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
3139		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the

3166		It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by
3167		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3168
3169		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3170		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3171		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3172		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3173		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3174		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3175
3176		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3177		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3178		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3179		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3180
3181		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3182		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3183		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3184		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3185		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3186
3187- TPL framework
3188		CONFIG_TPL
3189		Enable building of TPL globally.
3190
3191		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
3192		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
3193		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3194                CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3195                CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3196                payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3197
3198Modem Support:
3199--------------
3200
3201[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3202
3203- Modem support enable:
3204		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3205
3206- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3207		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3208
3209- Modem debug support:
3210		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3211
3212		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3213		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3214
3215- Interrupt support (PPC):
3216
3217		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3218		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3219		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3220		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3221		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3222		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3223		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3224		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3225		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3226		general timer_interrupt().
3227
3228- General:
3229
3230		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3231		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3232		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3233		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3234		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3235		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3236		initialization.
3237
3238		If there are no modem init strings in the
3239		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3240		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3241		suppressed, though.
3242
3243		See also: doc/README.Modem
3244
3245Board initialization settings:
3246------------------------------
3247
3248During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3249to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3250before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3251following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3252architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3253typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3254
3255- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3256- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3257- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3258- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3259
3260Configuration Settings:
3261-----------------------
3262
3263- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3264		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3265
3266- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3267		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3268
3269- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3270		prompt for user input.
3271
3272- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3273
3274- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3275
3276- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3277
3278- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3279		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3280		booted
3281
3282- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3283		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3284
3285- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3286		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3287
3288- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3289		If the board specific function
3290			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3291		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3292		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3293
3294- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3295		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3296
3297- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3298		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3299
3300- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3301		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3302		simple memory test.
3303
3304- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3305		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3306
3307- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3308		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3309		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3310
3311- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3312		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3313		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3314		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3315		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3316		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3317		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3318		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3319		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3320		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3321
3322		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3323		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3324		be touched.
3325
3326		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3327		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3328		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3329		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3330		problems.
3331
3332- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3333		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3334
3335- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3336		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3337
3338- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3339		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3340		Cogent motherboard)
3341
3342- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3343		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3344
3345- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3346		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3347		make config files to be same as the text base address
3348		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3349		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3350
3351- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3352		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3353		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3354		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3355		flash sector.
3356
3357- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3358		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3359
3360- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3361		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3362		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3363		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3364		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3365
3366- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3367		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3368		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3369		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3370		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3371		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3372		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3373		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3374		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3375		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3376		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3377
3378- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3379		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3380		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3381		is enabled.
3382
3383- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3384		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3385		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3386
3387- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3388		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3389		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3390
3391- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3392		Max number of Flash memory banks
3393
3394- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3395		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3396
3397- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3398		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3399
3400- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3401		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3402
3403- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3404		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3405
3406- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3407		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3408
3409- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3410		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3411		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3412
3413- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3414
3415		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3416		without this option such a download has to be
3417		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3418		copy from RAM to flash.
3419
3420		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3421		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3422		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3423		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3424		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3425
3426- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3427		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3428		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3429
3430- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3431		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3432		in the drivers directory
3433
3434- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3435		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3436		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3437		to the MTD layer.
3438
3439- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3440		Use buffered writes to flash.
3441
3442- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3443		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3444		write commands.
3445
3446- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3447		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3448		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3449		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3450		optionally available.
3451
3452- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3453		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3454		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3455		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3456
3457- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3458		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3459		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3460		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3461		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3462		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3463		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3464		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3465
3466- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3467		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3468		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3469		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3470		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3471		on high Ethernet traffic.
3472		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3473
3474- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3475
3476	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3477	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3478	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3479	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3480	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3481
3482- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3483- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3484	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3485	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3486	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3487	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3488
3489	The format of the list is:
3490		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3491		access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
3492		attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
3493		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3494		list = entry[,list]
3495
3496	The type attributes are:
3497		s - String (default)
3498		d - Decimal
3499		x - Hexadecimal
3500		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3501		i - IP address
3502		m - MAC address
3503
3504	The access attributes are:
3505		a - Any (default)
3506		r - Read-only
3507		o - Write-once
3508		c - Change-default
3509
3510	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3511		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3512		envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3513
3514	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3515		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3516		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3517		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
3518		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3519		".flags" variable.
3520
3521- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3522	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3523	access flags.
3524
3525- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
3526	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
3527	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
3528	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
3529	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
3530	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
3531	must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
3532	its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
3533	your board please report the problem and send patches!
3534
3535- CONFIG_SYS_SYM_OFFSETS
3536	This is set by architectures that use offsets for link symbols
3537	instead of absolute values. So bss_start is obtained using an
3538	offset _bss_start_ofs from CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, rather than
3539	directly. You should not need to touch this setting.
3540
3541- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
3542	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
3543	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
3544	the value can be calulated on a given board.
3545
3546The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3547of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3548following configurations:
3549
3550- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3551
3552	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3553	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3554
3555- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
3556
3557	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
3558
3559	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
3560	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
3561	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
3562	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
3563	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
3564	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
3565	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
3566	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
3567	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
3568	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
3569	   between U-Boot and the environment.
3570
3571	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3572
3573	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
3574	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
3575	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
3576	   for this sector is given here.
3577
3578	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
3579
3580	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3581
3582	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
3583	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
3584	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
3585
3586	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
3587
3588	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
3589
3590
3591	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
3592	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
3593	   the environment.
3594
3595	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3596
3597	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
3598	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
3599	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
3600	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
3601
3602	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
3603	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
3604	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
3605	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
3606	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
3607	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
3608	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
3609	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
3610	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
3611
3612	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
3613	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
3614
3615	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
3616	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
3617	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
3618	   a "saveenv" operation.
3619
3620BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
3621source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
3622accordingly!
3623
3624
3625- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
3626
3627	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
3628	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
3629	environment.
3630
3631	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3632	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3633
3634	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
3635	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
3636	  can just be read and written to, without any special
3637	  provision.
3638
3639BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3640in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
3641console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
3642U-Boot will hang.
3643
3644Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3645environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3646keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3647to save the current settings.
3648
3649
3650- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
3651
3652	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
3653	device and a driver for it.
3654
3655	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3656	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3657
3658	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
3659	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
3660
3661	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
3662	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
3663	  The default address is zero.
3664
3665	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
3666	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
3667	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
3668	  would require six bits.
3669
3670	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
3671	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
3672	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
3673
3674	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
3675	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
3676	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
3677
3678	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
3679	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
3680	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
3681	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
3682	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
3683	  byte chips.
3684
3685	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
3686	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
3687	  in the chip address.
3688
3689	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
3690	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
3691
3692	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
3693	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
3694	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
3695
3696	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
3697	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
3698	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
3699	  EEPROM. For example:
3700
3701	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
3702
3703	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
3704	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
3705
3706- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
3707
3708	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
3709	want to use for the environment.
3710
3711	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3712	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3713	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3714
3715	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
3716	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
3717	  at the specified address.
3718
3719- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
3720
3721	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
3722	want to use for the local device's environment.
3723
3724	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3725	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3726
3727	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
3728	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
3729	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
3730	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
3731
3732BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3733"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
3734environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3735but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
3736
3737- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
3738
3739	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
3740	for the environment.
3741
3742	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3743	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3744
3745	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
3746	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
3747	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3748
3749	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
3750
3751	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
3752	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
3753	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
3754	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
3755	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3756
3757	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
3758
3759	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
3760	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
3761	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
3762	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
3763	  the range to be avoided.
3764
3765	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
3766
3767	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
3768	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
3769	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
3770	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
3771	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
3772
3773- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
3774
3775	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
3776	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
3777	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3778
3779- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
3780
3781	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
3782	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
3783	accesses, which is important on NAND.
3784
3785	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
3786
3787	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
3788
3789	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
3790
3791	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
3792	  environment in.
3793
3794	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
3795
3796	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
3797	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
3798	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
3799
3800	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3801	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3802
3803	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
3804	  when storing the env in UBI.
3805
3806- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
3807
3808	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
3809	environment.
3810
3811	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
3812
3813	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
3814
3815	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
3816
3817	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
3818	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
3819	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
3820
3821	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3822	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3823
3824	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
3825	  area within the specified MMC device.
3826
3827	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
3828	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
3829	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
3830	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
3831	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
3832	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
3833	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
3834
3835	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
3836	  MMC sector boundary.
3837
3838	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
3839
3840	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
3841	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
3842	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
3843	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
3844
3845	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
3846	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
3847
3848	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
3849	  an MMC sector boundary.
3850
3851	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
3852
3853	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
3854	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
3855	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3856
3857- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
3858
3859	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
3860	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
3861	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
3862	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
3863	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
3864	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
3865	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
3866
3867Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
3868has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
3869created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
3870until then to read environment variables.
3871
3872The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
3873is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
3874with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
3875necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
3876"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
3877have any device yet where we could complain.]
3878
3879Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
3880the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
3881use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
3882
3883- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
3884		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
3885
3886		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
3887		      also needs to be defined.
3888
3889- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
3890		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
3891
3892- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
3893		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
3894		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
3895		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
3896		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
3897		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
3898
3899- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
3900		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
3901		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
3902		to do this.
3903
3904- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
3905		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
3906		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
3907		present.
3908
3909Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
3910---------------------------------------------------
3911
3912- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
3913		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
3914
3915- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
3916		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
3917
3918		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
3919		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
3920		the IMMR register after a reset.
3921
3922- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
3923		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
3924		PowerPC SOCs.
3925
3926- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
3927		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
3928		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
3929
3930		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
3931		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
3932
3933- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
3934		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
3935		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
3936		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
3937		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
3938		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
3939		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
3940
3941		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
3942			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
3943
3944- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
3945		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
3946		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
3947		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3948		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3949
3950- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3951		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
3952		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3953		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3954
3955- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
3956		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
3957		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
3958
3959- Floppy Disk Support:
3960		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
3961
3962		the default drive number (default value 0)
3963
3964		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
3965
3966		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
3967		(default value 1)
3968
3969		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
3970
3971		defines the offset of register from address. It
3972		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
3973		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
3974
3975		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
3976		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
3977		default value.
3978
3979		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
3980		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
3981		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
3982		source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
3983		initializations.
3984
3985- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
3986		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
3987		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
3988		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
3989		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
3990		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
3991		is requierd.
3992
3993- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
3994		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
3995		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
3996
3997- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
3998
3999		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4000		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4001		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4002		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4003		will become available only after programming the
4004		memory controller and running certain initialization
4005		sequences.
4006
4007		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4008		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4009		- MPC824X: data cache
4010		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4011
4012- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4013
4014		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4015		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4016		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4017		data is located at the end of the available space
4018		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4019		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4020		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4021		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4022
4023	Note:
4024		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4025		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4026		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4027		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4028		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

4076		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4]
4077
4078- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK:
4079		Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful,
4080		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4081		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4082
4083- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4084		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4085		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4086		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.

4097		Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
4098
4099- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4100		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4101		required.
4102
4103- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4104		Only scan through and get the devices on the busses.
4105		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4106		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4107		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4108		by coreboot or similar.
4109
4110- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4111		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4112
4113- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
4114		Chip has SRIO or not
4115
4116- CONFIG_SRIO1:

4121
4122- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER
4123		Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE
4124
4125- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT:
4126		Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4127
4128- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS:

4130
4131- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE:
4132		Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4133
4134- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
4135		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
4136		a 16 bit bus.
4137		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
4138		Example of drivers that use it:
4139		- drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c

4141
4142- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG

4148		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
4149
4150  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS

4152
4153- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM

4155		one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
4156		to something your driver can deal with.
4157
4158- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4159		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4160		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
4161		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
4162		header files or board specific files.
4163
4164- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
4165		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4166
4167- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4168		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4169		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4170
4171- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4172		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4173
4174- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4175		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4176		to the given FEC; i. e.
4177			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4178		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4179
4180		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4181
4182- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4183		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4184		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4185
4186- CONFIG_RMII
4187		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4188		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4189		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4190
4191- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4192		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4193		The syntax is:
4194
4195		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4196
4197		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4198		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4199		area should have.
4200
4201- CONFIG_LOOPW
4202		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4203		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4204
4205- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4206		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4207		"md/mw" commands.
4208		Examples:
4209
4210		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4211		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4212
4213		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4214		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4215
4216		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4217		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4218
4219- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4220		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4221		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4222		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4223		relocate itself into RAM.
4224
4225		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4226		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4227		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4228		these initializations itself.
4229
4230- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4231		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4232		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4233		compiling a NAND SPL.
4234
4235- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4236		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4237		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4238		It is loaded by the SPL.
4239
4240- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4241		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4242		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4243		previous 4k of the .text section.
4244
4245- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4246		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4247		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4248		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4249		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4250		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4251		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4252		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4253
4254- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4255  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4256		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4257		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4258		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4259
4260- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4261		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4262		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4263
4264- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4265		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4266
4267		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4268
4269Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4270-----------------------------------
4271
4272The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4273loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4274This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4275are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4276within that device.
4277
4278- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4279	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4280	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4281	is also specified.
4282
4283- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4284	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4285	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4286	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4287	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4288
4289- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4290	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4291	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4292	virtual address in NOR flash.
4293
4294- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4295	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4296	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4297
4298- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4299	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4300	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4301
4302- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4303	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4304	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4305
4306- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4307	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4308	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4309	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4310	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4311	master's memory space.
4312
4313Building the Software:
4314======================
4315
4316Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4317and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4318all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4319(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4320recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4321which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4322
4323If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4324have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4325you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4326Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4327necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4328
4329	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4330	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
4331
4332Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4333      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4334      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4335      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
4336
4337       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4338
4339      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4340      be executed on computers running Windows.
4341
4342U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4343sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4344is done by typing:
4345
4346	make NAME_config
4347
4348where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
4349rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
4350
4351Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4352      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
4353      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
4354      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
4355      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4356
4357      make TQM823L_config
4358	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4359
4360      make TQM823L_LCD_config
4361	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
4362
4363      etc.
4364
4365
4366Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
4367images ready for download to / installation on your system:
4368
4369- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
4370- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
4371- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
4372
4373By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4374in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4375this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4376
43771. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4378
4379	make O=/tmp/build distclean
4380	make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
4381	make O=/tmp/build all
4382
43832. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
4384
4385	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4386	make distclean
4387	make NAME_config
4388	make all
4389
4390Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
4391variable.
4392
4393
4394Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
4395for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
4396native "make".
4397
4398
4399If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
4400to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
4401steps:
4402
44031.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
4404    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
4405    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
44062.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
4407    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
4408    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
44093.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
4410    your board
44113.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
4412    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
44134.  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
44145.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
4415    to be installed on your target system.
44166.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
4417    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
4418
4419
4420Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
4421==============================================================
4422
4423If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
4424or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
4425provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
4426the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
4427official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
4428
4429But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
4430cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
4431the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
4432just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
4433for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
4434select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
4435environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
4436you can type
4437
4438	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4439
4440or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
4441
4442	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
4443
4444When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
4445U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
4446setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
4447built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
4448<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
4449location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
4450variable. For example:
4451
4452	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4453	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
4454	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4455
4456With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
4457log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
4458during the whole build process.

4513Monitor Commands - Detailed Description:
4514========================================
4515
4516TODO.
4517
4518For now: just type "help <command>".
4519
4520
4521Environment Variables:
4522======================
4523
4524U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
4525can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
4526
4527Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
4528"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
4529without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
4530environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
4531working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
4532environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
4533
4534Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
4535
4536List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
4537
4538  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
4539
4540  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
4541
4542  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
4543
4544  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
4545
4546  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
4547
4548  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4549		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4550		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
4551		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
4552		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
4553		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
4554		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
4555		  bootm_mapsize.
4556
4557  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
4558		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
4559		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
4560		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
4561		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
4562		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
4563		  used otherwise.
4564
4565  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4566		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4567		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
4568		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
4569		  environment variable.
4570
4571  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
4572		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
4573		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
4574
4575  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
4576		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
4577		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
4578		  load any image using TFTP
4579
4580  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
4581		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
4582		  be automatically started (by internally calling
4583		  "bootm")
4584
4585		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
4586		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
4587		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
4588		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
4589		  data.
4590
4591  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
4592		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
4593		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
4594		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
4595		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
4596		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
4597		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
4598		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
4599		  access it during the boot procedure.
4600
4601		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
4602		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
4603		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
4604		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
4605		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
4606		  must be accessible by the kernel.
4607
4608  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
4609		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
4610		  defined.
4611
4612  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
4613		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
4614		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
4615		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
4616		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
4617
4618  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
4619		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4620		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4621		  is usually what you want since it allows for
4622		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4623		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
4624		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
4625		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4626		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4627		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4628		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
4629
4630		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
4631		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4632		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4633		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
4634		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4635		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4636
4637		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4638
4639		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
4640		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
4641		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
4642		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
4643		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
4644		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
4645		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
4646
4647  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4648
4649  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
4650		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
4651
4652  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4653
4654  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4655
4656  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
4657
4658  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
4659
4660  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
4661
4662  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4663
4664  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4665		  For example you can do the following
4666
4667		  => setenv ethact FEC
4668		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
4669		  => setenv ethact SCC
4670		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4671
4672  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4673		  available network interfaces.
4674		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4675
4676  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4677		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
4678		  When set to "once" the network operation will
4679		  fail when all the available network interfaces
4680		  are tried once without success.
4681		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4682		  themselves.
4683
4684  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
4685
4686  silent_linux  - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by
4687		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
4688		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
4689		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
4690		  is silent.
4691
4692  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
4693		  UDP source port.
4694
4695  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
4696		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
4697
4698  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4699		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4700
4701  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4702		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4703		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4704		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4705		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4706		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4707		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
4708
4709  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
4710		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
4711		  VLAN tagged frames.
4712
4713The following image location variables contain the location of images
4714used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4715not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4716variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4717server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4718loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4719flash or offset in NAND flash.
4720
4721*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4722boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
4723boards use these variables for other purposes.
4724
4725Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
4726-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
4727u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
4728Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
4729device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
4730ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
4731
4732The following environment variables may be used and automatically
4733updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
4734depending the information provided by your boot server:
4735
4736  bootfile	- see above
4737  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
4738  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
4739  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
4740  hostname	- Target hostname
4741  ipaddr	- see above
4742  netmask	- Subnet Mask
4743  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
4744  serverip	- see above
4745
4746
4747There are two special Environment Variables:
4748
4749  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
4750		  as type string and/or serial number
4751  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
4752
4753These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4754the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4755once they have been set once.
4756
4757
4758Further special Environment Variables:
4759
4760  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4761		  with the "version" command. This variable is
4762		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
4763
4764
4765Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
4766only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
4767
4768
4769Callback functions for environment variables:
4770---------------------------------------------
4771
4772For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
4773when their values are changed.  This functionailty allows functions to
4774be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
4775deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
4776effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
4777
4778The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
4779U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
4780
4781These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
4782static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
4783in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
4784associations.  The list must be in the following format:
4785
4786	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
4787	list = entry[,list]
4788
4789If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
4790Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
4791
4792Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
4793with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
4794override any association in the static list. You can define
4795CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
4796".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4797
4798
4799Command Line Parsing:
4800=====================
4801
4802There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
4803the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
4804
4805Old, simple command line parser:
4806--------------------------------
4807
4808- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
4809- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
4810- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
4811- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
4812  for example:
4813	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
4814- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
4815	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
4816
4817Hush shell:
4818-----------
4819
4820- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4821  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4822  until...do...done, ...
4823- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4824  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4825  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4826  command
4827
4828General rules:
4829--------------
4830
4831(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4832    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4833    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4834    executed anyway.
4835
4836(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
4837    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
4838    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4839    variables are not executed.
4840
4841Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4842=======================================
4843
4844Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
4845such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
4846"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
4847
4848Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4849MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4850"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
4851
4852If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4853in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4854ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4855variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
4856
4857o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4858  environment, the SROM's address is used.
4859
4860o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4861  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4862  used.
4863
4864o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4865  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
4866
4867o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4868  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4869  warning is printed.
4870
4871o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4872  is raised.
4873
4874If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
4875will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
4876may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4877The naming convention is as follows:
4878"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
4879
4880Image Formats:
4881==============
4882
4883U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
4884images in two formats:
4885
4886New uImage format (FIT)
4887-----------------------
4888
4889Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
4890to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
4891components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
4892SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
4893
4894
4895Old uImage format
4896-----------------
4897
4898Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
4899preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
4900details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
4901
4902* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
4903  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
4904  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
4905  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
4906  INTEGRITY).
4907* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
4908  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
4909  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
4910* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
4911* Load Address
4912* Entry Point
4913* Image Name
4914* Image Timestamp
4915
4916The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
4917and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
4918CRC32 checksums.
4919
4920
4921Linux Support:
4922==============
4923
4924Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
4925easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4926U-Boot.
4927
4928U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4929special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4930"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4931instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
4932serves several purposes:
4933
4934- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4935  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4936  Flash memory footprint)
4937
4938- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
4939  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
4940
4941- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4942  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4943  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4944  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4945  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4946  software is easier now.

4949Linux HOWTO:
4950============
4951
4952Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4953---------------------------------------
4954
4955U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4956configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4957(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4958Linux :-).
4959
4960But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
4961
4962Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
4963include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
4964Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
4965and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
4966as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
4967
4968
4969Configuring the Linux kernel:
4970-----------------------------
4971
4972No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
4973device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
4974
4975
4976Building a Linux Image:
4977-----------------------
4978
4979With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
4980not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
4981"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
4982U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
4983which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
4984100% compatible format.
4985
4986Example:
4987
4988	make TQM850L_config
4989	make oldconfig
4990	make dep
4991	make uImage
4992
4993The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
4994encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
4995CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
4996
4997* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
4998
4999* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5000
5001	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5002				 -R .note -R .comment \
5003				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5004
5005* compress the binary image:
5006
5007	gzip -9 linux.bin
5008
5009* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5010
5011	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5012		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5013		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5014
5015
5016The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5017with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5018combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5019byte header containing information about target architecture,
5020operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5021stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5022
5023"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5024print the header information, or to build new images.
5025
5026In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5027contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5028checksum verification:
5029
5030	tools/mkimage -l image
5031	  -l ==> list image header information
5032
5033The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5034from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5035
5036	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5037		      -n name -d data_file image
5038	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5039	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5040	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5041	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5042	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5043	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5044	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5045	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5046
5047Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5048address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5049kernel version:
5050
5051- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5052- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5053
5054So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5055
5056	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5057	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5058	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5059	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5060	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5061	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5062	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5063	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5064	Load Address: 0x00000000
5065	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5066
5067To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5068
5069	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5070	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5071	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5072	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5073	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5074	Load Address: 0x00000000
5075	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5076
5077NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5078speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5079needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5080need to be uncompressed:
5081
5082	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5083	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5084	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5085	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5086	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5087	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5088	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5089	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5090	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5091	Load Address: 0x00000000
5092	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5093
5094
5095Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5096when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5097
5098	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5099	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5100	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5101	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5102	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5103	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5104	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5105	Load Address: 0x00000000
5106	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5107
5108
5109Installing a Linux Image:
5110-------------------------
5111
5112To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5113you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5114
5115	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5116
5117The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5118image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5119address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5120specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5121command.
5122
5123Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5124TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5125
5126	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5127
5128	.......... done
5129	Erased 8 sectors
5130
5131	=> loads 40100000
5132	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5133	~>examples/image.srec
5134	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
5135	...
5136	15989 15990 15991 15992
5137	[file transfer complete]
5138	[connected]
5139	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5140
5141
5142You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5143this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5144corruption happened:
5145
5146	=> imi 40100000
5147
5148	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
5149	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L
5150	   Image Type:	 PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)

5152	   Load Address: 00000000
5153	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
5154	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
5155
5156
5157Boot Linux:
5158-----------
5159
5160The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5161memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5162of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5163parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5164"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5165
5166
5167	=> printenv bootargs
5168	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5169
5170	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5171
5172	=> printenv bootargs
5173	bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

5192the memory addresses of both the kernel and the initrd image (PPBCOOT

5241-----------
5242
5243First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section
5244titled "Linux Kernel Interface" above for a more in depth explanation. The
5245following is an example of how to start a kernel and pass an updated
5246flat device tree:

5289More About U-Boot Image Types:
5290------------------------------
5291
5292U-Boot supports the following image types:
5293
5294   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5295	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5296	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5297	the Standalone Program.
5298   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5299	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5300	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5301	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5302	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5303   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5304	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5305	being started.
5306   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5307	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5308	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5309	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5310	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5311	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5312
5313	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5314	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5315	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5316	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5317	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5318	a multiple of 4 bytes).
5319
5320   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5321	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5322	flash memory.
5323
5324   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5325	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5326	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5327	as command interpreter.
5328
5329Booting the Linux zImage:
5330-------------------------
5331
5332On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5333using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5334as the syntax of "bootm" command.
5335
5336Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5337kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5338address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5339format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
5340
5341
5342Standalone HOWTO:
5343=================
5344
5345One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5346run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5347U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5348
5349Two simple examples are included with the sources:
5350
5351"Hello World" Demo:
5352-------------------
5353
5354'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5355application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5356It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5357like that:
5358
5359	=> loads
5360	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5361	~>examples/hello_world.srec
5362	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
5363	[file transfer complete]
5364	[connected]
5365	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
5366
5367	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
5368	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
5369	Hello World
5370	argc = 7
5371	argv[0] = "40004"
5372	argv[1] = "Hello"
5373	argv[2] = "World!"
5374	argv[3] = "This"
5375	argv[4] = "is"
5376	argv[5] = "a"
5377	argv[6] = "test."
5378	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
5379	Hit any key to exit ...
5380
5381	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
5382
5383Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt

5385Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
5386The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'

5388controlled by the following keys:
5389

5430Minicom warning:
5431================
5432
5433Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
5434"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
5435consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
5436Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
5437especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
5438use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
5439http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
5440for help with kermit.
5441
5442
5443Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
5444configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
5445
5446	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi

5451NetBSD Notes:
5452=============
5453
5454Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
5455(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
5456
5457Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
5458NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
5459need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
5460Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
5461attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
5462missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
5463
5464	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
5465	# mkdir powerpc
5466	# ln -s powerpc machine
5467	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
5468	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
5469
5470Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
5471and U-Boot include files.
5472
5473Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
5474stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
5475proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
5476tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
5477meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz

5480Implementation Internals:
5481=========================
5482
5483The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
5484implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
5485inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
5486hardware.
5487
5488
5489Initial Stack, Global Data:
5490---------------------------
5491
5492The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
5493starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
5494system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
5495This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
5496is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
5497at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
5498options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
5499models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
5500MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
5501locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
5502
5503	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
5504	U-Boot mailing list:
5505
5506	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
5507	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
5508	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
5509	...
5510
5511	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
5512	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
5513	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
5514	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
5515	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
5516	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
5517	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
5518	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
5519
5520	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
5521	is another option for the system designer to use as an
5522	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
5523	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
5524	board designers haven't used it for something that would
5525	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
5526	used.
5527
5528	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
5529	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
5530	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
5531	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
5532	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
5533	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
5534	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
5535	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
5536	you get the config right.

5540
5541It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
5542code for the initialization procedures:
5543
5544* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
5545  to write it.
5546
5547* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
5548  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
5549  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
5550
5551* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
5552  that.
5553
5554Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
5555normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
5556turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
5557simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
5558functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
5559functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
5560the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
5561place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
5562reserve for this purpose.
5563
5564When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
5565relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
5566GCC's implementation.
5567
5568For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
5569	R1:	stack pointer
5570	R2:	reserved for system use
5571	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
5572	R5-R10: parameter passing
5573	R13:	small data area pointer
5574	R30:	GOT pointer
5575	R31:	frame pointer
5576
5577	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
5578	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
5579	going back and forth between asm and C)
5580
5581    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
5582
5583    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
5584    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
5585    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
5586    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
5587    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
5588    624 text + 127 data).
5589
5590On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
5591	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
5592
5593    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
5594
5595On ARM, the following registers are used:
5596
5597	R0:	function argument word/integer result
5598	R1-R3:	function argument word
5599	R9:	platform specific
5600	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
5601	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
5602	R12:	temporary workspace
5603	R13:	stack pointer
5604	R14:	link register
5605	R15:	program counter
5606
5607    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
5608
5609    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
5610
5611On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
5612	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
5613
5614    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
5615
5616    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
5617    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
5618
5619On NDS32, the following registers are used:
5620
5621	R0-R1:	argument/return
5622	R2-R5:	argument
5623	R15:	temporary register for assembler
5624	R16:	trampoline register
5625	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
5626	R29:	global pointer (GP)
5627	R30:	link register (LP)
5628	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
5629	PC:	program counter (PC)
5630
5631    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
5632
5633NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
5634or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
5635
5636Memory Management:
5637------------------
5638
5639U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5640MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5641
5642The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5643controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5644memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5645physical memory banks.
5646
5647U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5648TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5649booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5650to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
5651memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5652configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5653Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5654
5655Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5656of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5657
5658So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5659this:
5660
5661	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5662	      :
5663	0x0000 1FFF
5664	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5665	      :
5666	      :
5667
5668	      :
5669	      :
5670	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5671	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5672	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5673	      :
5674	0x00FD FFFF
5675	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5676	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5677	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5678	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5679
5680
5681System Initialization:
5682----------------------
5683
5684In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
5685(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5686configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
5687To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5688To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5689initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5690which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
5691part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
5692the caches and the SIU.
5693
5694Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5695preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5696(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5697on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5698programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5699simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5700banks.
5701
5702When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
5703different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5704bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
57050x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5706contiguous memory starting from 0.
5707
5708Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5709and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5710Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5711pages, and the final stack is set up.
5712
5713Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5714until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5715running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5716new address in RAM.

5793Coding Standards:
5794-----------------
5795
5796All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
5797coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
5798"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
5799
5800Source files originating from a different project (for example the
5801MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
5802reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
5803sources.
5804
5805Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
5806Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
5807in your code.
5808
5809Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
5810- remove any trailing white space
5811- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
5812- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
5813- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
5814- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
5815
5816Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
5817with a request to reformat the changes.
5818
5819
5820Submitting Patches:
5821-------------------
5822
5823Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
5824establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
5825may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
5826
5827Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
5828
5829Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
5830see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
5831
5832When you send a patch, please include the following information with
5833it:
5834
5835* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
5836  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
5837  patch actually fixes something.
5838
5839* For new features: a description of the feature and your
5840  implementation.
5841
5842* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
5843
5844* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
5845
5846* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
5847  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
5848
5849* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5850  document these in the README file.
5851
5852* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5853  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
5854  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
5855  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5856  with some other mail clients.
5857
5858  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5859  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5860  GNU diff.
5861
5862  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5863  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5864  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the

5867  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5868  and compressed attachments must not be used.
5869
5870* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
5871  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
5872
5873* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
5874  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.

5876
5877Notes:
5878
5879* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
5880  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5881  for any of the boards.
5882
5883* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5884  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5885  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
5886
5887* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5888  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5889  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5890  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5891  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5892  modification.
5893
5894* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
5895  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
5896  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
5897  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
