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

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

532		Physical address from the view of DDR controllers. It is the
533		same as CONFIG_SYS_DDR_SDRAM_BASE for  all Power SoCs. But
534		it could be different for ARM SoCs.
535
536		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_INTLV_256B
537		DDR controller interleaving on 256-byte. This is a special
538		interleaving mode, handled by Dickens for Freescale layerscape
539		SoCs with ARM core.
540
541		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_MAIN_NUM_CTRLS
542		Number of controllers used as main memory.
543
544		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_OTHER_DDR_NUM_CTRLS
545		Number of controllers used for other than main memory.

547		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_BE
548		Defines the SEC controller register space as Big Endian
549
550		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_LE
551		Defines the SEC controller register space as Little Endian
552
553- Intel Monahans options:
554		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO
555
556		Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator
557		ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core
558		frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz.
559
560		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO
561
562		Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator
563		ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and
564		2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied
565		by this value.
566
567- MIPS CPU options:
568		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET
569
570		Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack
571		pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before
572		relocation.
573
574		CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE
575
576		Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU.
577		See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h.
578		Possible values are:
579			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA
580			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA
581			CONF_CM_UNCACHED
582			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT
583			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE
584			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW
585			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW
586			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
587
588		CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
589
590		Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
591		See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
592
593		CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
594
595		Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
596		XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
597		be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
598
599- ARM options:
600		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
601
602		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
603		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
604
605		CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
606
607		Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
608		set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
609		better code density. For ARM architectures that support
610		Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
611		GCC.
612
613		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
614		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
615		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
616		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
617		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072
618		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_761320
619
620		If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
621		during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
622		workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
623		exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
624		set these options unless they apply!
625
626- CPU timer options:
627		CONFIG_SYS_HZ
628
629		The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer().
630		get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG
631		option must be set to 1000.
632
633- Linux Kernel Interface:
634		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
635
636		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
637		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
638		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
639		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
640		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
641		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
642		Linux kernel.
643		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
644		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
645		default environment.
646
647		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
648
649		When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions
650		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
651		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
652
653		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
654
655		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
656		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
657		concepts).
658
659		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
660		 * New libfdt-based support
661		 * Adds the "fdt" command
662		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
663
664		OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
665			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
666		OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
667			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
668		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
669		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
670
671		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
672		addresses
673
674		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
675
676		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
677		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
678
679		CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
680
681		This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
682		param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
683
684		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
685
686		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
687		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
688		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
689		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
690		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
691		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
692
693		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
694
695		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
696		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
697		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
698		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
699		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
700		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
701		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
702
703- vxWorks boot parameters:
704
705		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
706		environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
707		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
708
709		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
710		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
711		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
712		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
713
714		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
715
716		Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
717
718		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
719		the defaults discussed just above.
720
721- Cache Configuration:
722		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
723		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
724		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
725
726- Cache Configuration for ARM:
727		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
728				      controller
729		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
730					controller register space
731
732- Serial Ports:
733		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
734
735		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
736
737		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
738
739		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
740
741		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
742
743		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
744		the clock speed of the UARTs.
745
746		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
747
748		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
749		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
750		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
751
752		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
753
754		Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
755		have separate receive and transmit line control registers.  Set
756		this variable to initialize the extra register.
757
758		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
759
760		On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
761		boot loader that has already initialized the UART.  Define this
762		variable to flush the UART at init time.
763
764		CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
765
766		Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
767		Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
768
769- Console Interface:
770		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
771		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
772		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
773		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
774
775		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
776		port routines must be defined elsewhere
777		(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
778
779		CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
780		Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
781		defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
782			VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN	graphic memory organisation
783						(default big endian)
784			VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL	graphic chip supports
785						rectangle fill
786						(cf. smiLynxEM)
787			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
788						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
789			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
790						(cols=pitch)
791			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS	visible pixel rows
792			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE	bytes per pixel
793			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
794						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
795			VIDEO_FB_ADRS		framebuffer address
796			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
797						(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
798			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
799						(i.e. i8042_tstc)
800			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
801						(i.e. i8042_getc)
802			CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR	cursor drawing on/off
803						(requires blink timer
804						cf. i8042.c)
805			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
806			CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME	display time/date info in
807						upper right corner
808						(requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
809			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO	display Linux logo in
810						upper left corner
811			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO	use bmp_logo.h instead of
812						linux_logo.h for logo.
813						Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
814			CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
815						additional board info beside
816						the logo
817
818		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
819		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
820		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
821
822		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
823		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
824		environment 'console=serial'.
825
826		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
827		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
828		the "silent" environment variable. See
829		doc/README.silent for more information.
830
831		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
832			is 0x00.
833		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
834			is 0xa0.
835
836- Console Baudrate:
837		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
838		Select one of the baudrates listed in
839		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
840		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
841
842- Console Rx buffer length
843		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
844		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
845		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
846		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
847		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
848		the SMC.
849
850- Pre-Console Buffer:
851		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
852		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
853		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
854		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
855		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
856		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
857		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
858		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
859		earlier bytes are discarded.
860
861		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
862		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
863
864- Safe printf() functions
865		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
866		the printf() functions. These are defined in
867		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
868		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
869		If this option is not given then these functions will
870		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
871		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
872
873- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
874		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
875		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
876		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
877		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
878
879		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
880		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
881		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
882		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
883		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
884		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
885		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
886		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
887		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
888		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
889		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
890		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
891
892- Autoboot Command:
893		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
894		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
895		define a command string that is automatically executed
896		when no character is read on the console interface
897		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
898
899		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
900		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
901		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
902		environment value "bootargs".
903
904		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
905		The value of these goes into the environment as
906		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
907		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
908		RAM and NFS.
909
910- Bootcount:
911		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
912		Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
913		cycle, see:
914		http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
915
916		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
917		If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
918		"bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
919		saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
920		"upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
921		0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
922		1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
923		So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
924		and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
925
926- Pre-Boot Commands:
927		CONFIG_PREBOOT
928
929		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
930		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
931		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
932		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
933		entering interactive mode.
934
935		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
936		automatically generated or modified. For an example
937		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
938		modified when the user holds down a certain
939		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
940		booting the systems
941
942- Serial Download Echo Mode:
943		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
944		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
945		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
946		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
947		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
948		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
949		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
950
951- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
952		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
953		Select one of the baudrates listed in
954		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
955
956- Monitor Functions:
957		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
958		from the build by using the #include files
959		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
960		commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
961		and augmenting with additional #define's
962		for wanted commands.
963
964		The default command configuration includes all commands
965		except those marked below with a "*".

1074		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
1075		support you can write:
1076
1077		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
1078		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1079
1080	Other Commands:
1081		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1082
1083	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1084		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1085		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1086		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1087		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1088		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1089		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1090		initial stack and some data.
1091
1092
1093		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1094
1095- Regular expression support:
1096		CONFIG_REGEX
1097		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1098		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1099		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1100		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1101
1102- Device tree:
1103		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1104		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1105		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1106		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1107		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1108		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1109
1110		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1111		be done using one of the two options below:
1112
1113		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1114		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1115		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1116		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1117		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1118		the global data structure as gd->blob.
1119
1120		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1121		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1122		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1123		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1124
1125			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1126
1127		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1128		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1129		still use the individual files if you need something more
1130		exotic.
1131
1132- Watchdog:
1133		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1134		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1135		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1136		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1137		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1138		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
1139		available, then no further board specific code should
1140		be needed to use it.
1141
1142		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1143		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1144		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1145		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1146
1147- U-Boot Version:
1148		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1149		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1150		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1151		version as printed by the "version" command.
1152		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1153		next reset.
1154
1155- Real-Time Clock:
1156
1157		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1158		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1159		following options:
1160
1161		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1162		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1163		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1164		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1165		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1166		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1167		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1168		CONFIG_RTC_DS1339	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
1169		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1170		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1171		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1172		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1173		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
1174					  RV3029 RTC.
1175
1176		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1177		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1178
1179- GPIO Support:
1180		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1181
1182		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1183		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1184		pins supported by a particular chip.
1185
1186		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1187		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1188
1189- I/O tracing:
1190		When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
1191		accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
1192		to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
1193		useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
1194		the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
1195		change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
1196		add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
1197		to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
1198
1199		Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
1200		Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
1201		still continue to operate.
1202
1203			iotrace is enabled
1204			Start:  10000000	(buffer start address)
1205			Size:   00010000	(buffer size)
1206			Offset: 00000120	(current buffer offset)
1207			Output: 10000120	(start + offset)
1208			Count:  00000018	(number of trace records)
1209			CRC32:  9526fb66	(CRC32 of all trace records)
1210
1211- Timestamp Support:
1212
1213		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1214		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
1215		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1216		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1217
1218- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1219		Zero or more of the following:
1220		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
1221		CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION   MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1222				       Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1223		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1224		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1225				       bootloader.  Note 2TB partition limit; see
1226				       disk/part_efi.c
1227		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
1228
1229		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1230		CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1231		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1232
1233- IDE Reset method:
1234		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1235		board configurations files but used nowhere!
1236
1237		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1238		be performed by calling the function
1239			ide_set_reset(int reset)
1240		which has to be defined in a board specific file
1241
1242- ATAPI Support:
1243		CONFIG_ATAPI
1244
1245		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1246
1247- LBA48 Support
1248		CONFIG_LBA48
1249
1250		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1251		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1252		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1253		support disks up to 2.1TB.
1254
1255		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1256			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1257			Default is 32bit.
1258
1259- SCSI Support:
1260		At the moment only there is only support for the
1261		SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
1262		CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
1263
1264		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1265		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1266		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1267		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1268		devices.
1269		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1270
1271		The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
1272		SCSI devices found during the last scan.
1273
1274- NETWORK Support (PCI):
1275		CONFIG_E1000
1276		Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips.
1277
1278		CONFIG_E1000_SPI

1282
1283		CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC
1284		Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for

1444		CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it.
1445		define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard
1446		and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB
1447		storage devices.
1448		Note:
1449		Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
1450		(TEAC FD-05PUB).

1464
1465		CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
1466		txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
1467
1468- USB Device:
1469		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1470		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1471		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1472		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1473		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1474		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1475		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1476		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1477		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1478		a Linux host by
1479		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1480		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1481		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1482		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1483
1484			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1485			Define this to build a UDC device
1486
1487			CONFIG_USB_TTY
1488			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1489			talk to the UDC device
1490
1491			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1492			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1493			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1494			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1495			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1496			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1497			speed.
1498
1499			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1500			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1501			be set to usbtty.
1502
1503			mpc8xx:
1504				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH
1505				Derive USB clock from external clock "blah"
1506				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02
1507
1508				CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH
1509				Derive USB clock from brgclk
1510				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
1511
1512		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1513		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1514		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1515		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1516		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1517		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1518
1519			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1520			Define this string as the name of your company for
1521			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1522

1524			Define this string as the name of your product
1525			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1526
1527			CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1528			Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1529			Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1530			to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1531			- CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1532
1533			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1534			Define this as the unique Product ID
1535			for your device
1536			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1537
1538- ULPI Layer Support:
1539		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1540		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1541		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1542		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1543		viewport is supported.
1544		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1545		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1546		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1547		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1548		the appropriate value in Hz.
1549
1550- MMC Support:
1551		The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1552		enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1553		accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1554		to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1555		enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1556		the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1557
1558		CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1559		Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1560
1561			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
1562			Define the base address of MMCIF registers

1578		CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION
1579		This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1580
1581		CONFIG_CMD_DFU
1582		This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have
1583		U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB.  This command
1584		requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1585		set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1586
1587		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1588		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1589
1590		CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1591		This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1592
1593		CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1594		This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1595		Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1596		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1597		one that would help mostly the developer.
1598
1599		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1600		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1601		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1602		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1603		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1604
1605		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1606		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1607		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1608		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1609		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1610		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1611
1612		DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1613		Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1614		host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1615		a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1616
1617		DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1618		Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1619		entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1620		sending again an USB request to the device.
1621
1622- USB Device Android Fastboot support:
1623		CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT
1624		This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android
1625		fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB
1626		protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control
1627		used on Android devices.
1628		See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information.
1629
1630		CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE
1631		This enables support for booting images which use the Android
1632		image format header.
1633
1634		CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR
1635		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1636		downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for
1637		downloaded images.
1638
1639		CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE
1640		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1641		downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a
1642		platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot.
1643
1644		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH
1645		The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing
1646		the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define
1647		this to enable the "fastboot flash" command.
1648
1649		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV
1650		The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information
1651		regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to
1652		the eMMC device that fastboot should use to store the image.
1653
1654- Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1655		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
1656		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
1657		Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1658
1659		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1660		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1661		Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1662
1663		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
1664		Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1665		function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1666
1667		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1668		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1669		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1670		have not defined a custom partition
1671
1672- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1673		CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1674
1675		Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1676		file in FAT formatted partition.
1677
1678		This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1679		user to write files to FAT.
1680
1681CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1682		CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1683
1684		Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1685		filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
1686		and cbfsload.
1687
1688- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size:
1689		CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE
1690
1691		Define the max cluster size for fat operations else
1692		a default value of 65536 will be defined.
1693
1694- Keyboard Support:
1695		CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
1696
1697		Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
1698		support
1699
1700		CONFIG_I8042_KBD
1701		Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
1702		GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
1703		Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
1704		for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
1705
1706		CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB
1707		Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface.
1708		This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller
1709		which provides key scans on request.
1710
1711- Video support:
1712		CONFIG_VIDEO
1713
1714		Define this to enable video support (for output to
1715		video).
1716
1717		CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
1718
1719		Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
1720
1721		CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1722		Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1723		video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1724		(1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1725		assumed.
1726
1727		For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1728		selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1729		are possible:
1730		- "videomode=num"   'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
1731		Following standard modes are supported	(* is default):
1732
1733		      Colors	640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
1734		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1735		      8 bits |	0x301*	0x303	 0x305	  0x161	    0x307
1736		     15 bits |	0x310	0x313	 0x316	  0x162	    0x319
1737		     16 bits |	0x311	0x314	 0x317	  0x163	    0x31A
1738		     24 bits |	0x312	0x315	 0x318	    ?	    0x31B
1739		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1740		(i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1741
1742		- "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1743		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1744
1745
1746		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1747		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1748		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1749		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1750
1751		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1752		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1753		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1754		support, and should also define these other macros:
1755
1756			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1757			CONFIG_VIDEO
1758			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1759			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1760			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1761			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1762			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1763			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1764
1765		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1766		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1767		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1768		description of this variable.
1769
1770		CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
1771
1772		Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1773		are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1774		driver.
1775
1776
1777- Keyboard Support:
1778		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1779
1780		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1781		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1782		defined in your board-specific files.
1783		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1784
1785- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1786
1787		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1788		display); also select one of the supported displays
1789		by defining one of these:
1790
1791		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1792
1793			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1794
1795		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1796
1797			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1798
1799		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1800
1801			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1802			Active, color, single scan.
1803
1804		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1805
1806			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1807			Active, color, single scan.
1808
1809		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1810
1811			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1812			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1813
1814		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1815
1816			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1817			Active, color, single scan.
1818
1819		CONFIG_HLD1045
1820
1821			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1822			Active, color, single scan.
1823
1824		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1825
1826			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1827			or
1828			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1829			or
1830			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1831
1832			320x240. Black & white.
1833
1834		Normally display is black on white background; define
1835		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1836
1837		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1838
1839		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1840		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1841		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1842		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1843		a per-section basis.
1844
1845		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1846
1847		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1848		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1849		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1850		is slow.
1851
1852		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1853
1854		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1855
1856		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1857
1858		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1859		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1860
1861- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1862
1863		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1864		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1865		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1866		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1867		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1868		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1869		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1870		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1871
1872		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1873
1874		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1875		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1876		(see README.displaying-bmps).
1877		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1878		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1879		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1880		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1881		there is no need to set this option.
1882
1883		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1884
1885		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1886		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1887		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1888		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1889		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1890		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1891
1892		Example:
1893		setenv splashpos m,m
1894			=> image at center of screen
1895
1896		setenv splashpos 30,20
1897			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1898
1899		setenv splashpos -10,m
1900			=> vertically centered image
1901			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1902
1903- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1904
1905		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1906		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1907		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1908
1909- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1910
1911		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1912		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1913		bmp command.
1914
1915- Do compresssing for memory range:
1916		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1917
1918		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1919		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1920
1921- Compression support:
1922		CONFIG_GZIP
1923
1924		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1925
1926		CONFIG_BZIP2
1927
1928		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1929		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1930		compressed images are supported.
1931
1932		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1933		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1934		be at least 4MB.
1935
1936		CONFIG_LZMA
1937
1938		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1939		images is included.
1940
1941		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1942		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1943		formula:
1944
1945			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1946
1947		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1948		and Literal pos bits.
1949
1950		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1951		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1952		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1953		a very small buffer.
1954
1955		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1956		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1957		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1958
1959		CONFIG_LZO
1960
1961		If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
1962		is included.
1963
1964- MII/PHY support:
1965		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1966
1967		The address of PHY on MII bus.
1968
1969		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1970
1971		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1972
1973		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
1974
1975		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1976		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1977
1978		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1979
1980		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1981		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1982		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1983		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1984
1985		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1986
1987		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1988		command issued before MII status register can be read
1989
1990- Ethernet address:
1991		CONFIG_ETHADDR
1992		CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
1993		CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
1994		CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
1995		CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
1996		CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
1997
1998		Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1999		for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
2000		is not determined automatically.
2001
2002- IP address:
2003		CONFIG_IPADDR
2004
2005		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
2006		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
2007		determined through e.g. bootp.
2008		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
2009
2010- Server IP address:
2011		CONFIG_SERVERIP
2012
2013		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
2014		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
2015		(Environment variable "serverip")
2016
2017		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
2018
2019		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
2020		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
2021
2022- Gateway IP address:
2023		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
2024
2025		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
2026		default router where packets to other networks are
2027		sent to.
2028		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
2029
2030- Subnet mask:
2031		CONFIG_NETMASK
2032
2033		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
2034		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
2035		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
2036		forwarded through a router.
2037		(Environment variable "netmask")
2038
2039- Multicast TFTP Mode:
2040		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
2041
2042		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
2043		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
2044		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
2045		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
2046		multicast group.
2047
2048- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
2049		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
2050
2051		If you have many targets in a network that try to
2052		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
2053		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
2054		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
2055		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
2056		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
2057		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
2058		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
2059		following delays are inserted then:
2060
2061		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
2062		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
2063		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
2064		4th and following
2065		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
2066
2067		CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE
2068
2069		BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The
2070		server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and
2071		U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of
2072		an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses
2073		aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP
2074		ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to
2075		respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it
2076		takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that
2077		time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order
2078		to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these
2079		retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of
2080		IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this
2081		cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding
2082		requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers
2083		from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency.
2084
2085- DHCP Advanced Options:
2086		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
2087		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
2088
2089		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
2090		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
2091		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
2092		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
2093		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
2094		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
2095		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2096		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
2097		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
2098		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
2099		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
2100		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
2101		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
2102
2103		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
2104		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
2105
2106		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
2107		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
2108		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
2109		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
2110		is not available.
2111
2112		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
2113		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
2114		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
2115		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
2116		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
2117		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
2118		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2119		is defined.
2120
2121		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
2122		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
2123		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
2124		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
2125		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
2126		option 12 to the DHCP server.
2127
2128		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
2129
2130		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
2131		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
2132		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
2133		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
2134		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
2135		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
2136		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
2137		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
2138		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
2139		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
2140		this delay.
2141
2142 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
2143		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
2144		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
2145		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
2146		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
2147
2148		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
2149
2150 - CDP Options:
2151		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
2152
2153		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
2154
2155		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
2156
2157		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
2158		of the device.
2159
2160		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
2161
2162		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
2163		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
2164		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
2165
2166		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
2167
2168		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
2169		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
2170
2171		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
2172
2173		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
2174
2175		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
2176
2177		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
2178
2179		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
2180
2181		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
2182
2183		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
2184
2185		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
2186		device in .1 of milliwatts.
2187
2188		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
2189
2190		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
2191
2192- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2193
2194		Several configurations allow to display the current
2195		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2196		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2197		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2198		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2199		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2200		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2201		feature in U-Boot.
2202
2203		Additional options:
2204
2205		CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2206		The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2207		In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2208		status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2209		to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2210
2211		CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2212		Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2213		case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2214		GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2215		In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2216		with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2217
2218- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2219
2220		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
2221		on those systems that support this (optional)
2222		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2223
2224- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
2225
2226		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
2227		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
2228		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
2229		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
2230		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
2231		interface.
2232

2351
2352		additional defines:
2353
2354		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2355		Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
2356		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2357		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2358		omit this define.
2359
2360		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2361		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2362		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2363		omit this define.
2364
2365		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2366		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2367		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2368		define.
2369
2370		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2371		hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2372		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2373		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2374		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2375
2376		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2377					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2378					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2379					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2380					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2381					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \

2384					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2385					}
2386
2387		which defines

2396			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2397
2398		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2399
2400- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2401
2402		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2403		provides the following compelling advantages:
2404
2405		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2406		- approved multibus support
2407		- better i2c mux support
2408
2409		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2410
2411		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2412		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2413		for the selected CPU.
2414
2415		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2416		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2417		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2418		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2419		command line interface.
2420
2421		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2422
2423		There are several other quantities that must also be
2424		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2425
2426		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2427		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2428		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2429		the CPU's i2c node address).
2430
2431		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2432		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2433		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2434		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2435		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2436
2437		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2438
2439		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2440		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2441		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2442		commands until the slave device responds.
2443
2444		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2445
2446		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2447		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2448		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2449
2450		I2C_INIT
2451
2452		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2453		controller or configure ports.
2454
2455		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2456
2457		I2C_PORT
2458
2459		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2460		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2461		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2462
2463		I2C_ACTIVE
2464
2465		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2466		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2467		define can be null.
2468
2469		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2470
2471		I2C_TRISTATE
2472
2473		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2474		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2475		define can be null.
2476
2477		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2478
2479		I2C_READ
2480
2481		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2482		false if it is low.
2483
2484		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2485
2486		I2C_SDA(bit)
2487
2488		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2489		is false, it clears it (low).
2490
2491		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2492			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2493			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2494
2495		I2C_SCL(bit)
2496
2497		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2498		is false, it clears it (low).
2499
2500		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2501			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2502			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2503
2504		I2C_DELAY
2505
2506		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2507		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2508		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2509		like:
2510
2511		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2512
2513		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2514
2515		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2516		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2517		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2518		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2519
2520		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2521		the generic GPIO functions.
2522
2523		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2524
2525		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2526		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2527		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2528		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2529		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2530		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2531		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2532		is run early in the boot sequence.
2533
2534		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2535
2536		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2537		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2538		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2539		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2540		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2541		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2542		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2543		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2544
2545		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2546
2547		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2548		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2549		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2550
2551		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2552
2553		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2554		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2555		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2556		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2557
2558		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2559
2560		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2561		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2562		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2563		a 1D array of device addresses
2564
2565		e.g.
2566			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2567			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2568
2569		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2570
2571			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2572			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2573
2574		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2575
2576		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2577
2578		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2579		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2580
2581		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2582
2583		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2584		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2585
2586		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2587
2588		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2589		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2590
2591		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2592
2593		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2594		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2595		specified DTT device.
2596
2597		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2598
2599		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2600		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2601		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2602		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2603		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2604		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2605		the other.
2606
2607- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2608
2609		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2610		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2611		D/As on the SACSng board)
2612
2613		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2614
2615		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2616		only SH7757 is supported.
2617
2618		CONFIG_SPI_X
2619
2620		Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2621		(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2622
2623		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2624
2625		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2626		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2627		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2628		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2629		defined, the board configuration must define several
2630		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2631		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2632
2633		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2634
2635		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2636		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2637		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2638		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2639		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2640
2641		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2642
2643		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2644		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2645
2646		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT
2647		Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed.
2648		default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100)     /* 10 ms */
2649
2650- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2651
2652		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2653
2654		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2655
2656		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2657		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2658
2659		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2660
2661		Enables support for FPGA family.
2662		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2663
2664		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2665
2666		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2667
2668		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK
2669
2670		Enable support for fpga loadmk command
2671
2672		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP
2673
2674		Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream
2675
2676		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP
2677
2678		Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream
2679		(Xilinx only)
2680
2681		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2682
2683		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2684
2685		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2686
2687		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2688		status by the configuration function. This option
2689		will require a board or device specific function to
2690		be written.
2691
2692		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2693
2694		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2695		configuration driver.
2696
2697		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2698		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2699
2700		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2701
2702		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2703		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2704		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2705		indicated a CRC error).
2706
2707		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2708
2709		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2710		after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2711		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2712		ms.
2713
2714		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2715
2716		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2717		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2718
2719		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2720
2721		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2722		200 ms.
2723
2724- Configuration Management:
2725		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2726
2727		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2728		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2729
2730- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2731
2732		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2733		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2734		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2735		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2736		protects these variables from casual modification by
2737		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2738		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2739		change this behaviour:
2740
2741		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2742		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2743		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2744		these parameters.
2745
2746		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2747		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2748		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2749		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2750		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2751		read-only.]
2752
2753		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2754		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2755		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2756		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2757
2758- Protected RAM:
2759		CONFIG_PRAM
2760
2761		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2762		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2763		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2764		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2765		this default value by defining an environment
2766		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2767		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2768		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2769		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2770		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2771		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2772		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2773
2774			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2775			saveenv
2776
2777		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2778		either, which results in a memory region that will
2779		not be affected by reboots.
2780
2781		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2782		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2783		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2784		following board configurations are known to be
2785		"pRAM-clean":
2786
2787			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2788			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2789			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2790
2791- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2792		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2793		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2794		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2795		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2796		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2797		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2798
2799- Error Recovery:
2800		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2801
2802		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2803		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2804		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2805		system where you want the system to reboot
2806		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2807		useful during development since you can try to debug
2808		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2809
2810		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2811
2812		This variable defines the number of retries for
2813		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2814		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2815		default value of 5 is used.
2816
2817		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2818
2819		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2820
2821		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2822
2823		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2824		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2825		try longer timeout such as
2826		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2827
2828- Command Interpreter:
2829		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2830
2831		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2832
2833		CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2834
2835		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2836		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2837		powerful command line syntax like
2838		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2839		constructs ("shell scripts").
2840
2841		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2842		with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2843
2844
2845		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2846
2847		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2848		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2849		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2850
2851	Note:
2852
2853		In the current implementation, the local variables
2854		space and global environment variables space are
2855		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2856		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2857		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2858		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2859		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2860
2861		Global environment variables are those you use
2862		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2863		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2864		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2865
2866		To store commands and special characters in a
2867		variable, please use double quotation marks
2868		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2869		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2870		symbols.
2871
2872- Commandline Editing and History:
2873		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2874
2875		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2876		commandline input operations
2877
2878- Default Environment:
2879		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2880
2881		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2882		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2883		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2884
2885		For example, place something like this in your
2886		board's config file:
2887
2888		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2889			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2890			"myvar2=value2\0"
2891
2892		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2893		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2894		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2895		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2896		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2897		You better know what you are doing here.
2898
2899		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2900		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2901		the environment like the "source" command or the
2902		boot command first.
2903
2904		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2905
2906		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2907		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2908		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2909
2910		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2911
2912		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2913		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2914		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2915		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2916		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2917
2918		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2919
2920		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2921		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2922		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2923
2924		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2925
2926		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2927		intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2928		that so that the environment is not available until
2929		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2930		this is instead controlled by the value of
2931		/config/load-environment.
2932
2933- DataFlash Support:
2934		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2935
2936		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2937		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2938		commands cp, md...
2939
2940- Serial Flash support
2941		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2942
2943		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2944		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2945
2946		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2947		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2948		commands.
2949
2950		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2951		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2952		flash is present on the system.
2953
2954		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2955		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2956		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2957		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2958
2959		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2960
2961		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2962		test ('sf test').
2963
2964		CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR		Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2965
2966		Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2967		support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2968
2969		CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH		Dual flash memories
2970
2971		Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
2972		memories can be connected with a given cs line.
2973		currently Xilinx Zynq qspi support these type of connections.
2974
2975		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_ST_ENABLE_WP_PIN
2976		enable the W#/Vpp signal to disable writing to the status
2977		register on ST MICRON flashes like the N25Q128.
2978		The status register write enable/disable bit, combined with
2979		the W#/VPP signal provides hardware data protection for the
2980		device as follows: When the enable/disable bit is set to 1,
2981		and the W#/VPP signal is driven LOW, the status register
2982		nonvolatile bits become read-only and the WRITE STATUS REGISTER
2983		operation will not execute. The only way to exit this
2984		hardware-protected mode is to drive W#/VPP HIGH.
2985
2986- SystemACE Support:
2987		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2988
2989		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2990		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2991		of the chip must also be defined in the
2992		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2993
2994		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2995		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2996
2997		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2998		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2999
3000- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
3001		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
3002
3003		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
3004		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
3005		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
3006		number generator is used.
3007
3008		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
3009		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
3010		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
3011
3012		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
3013		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
3014		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
3015		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
3016		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
3017		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
3018		but sometimes that is not allowed.
3019
3020- Hashing support:
3021		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
3022
3023		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
3024		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
3025
3026		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
3027
3028		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
3029		size a little.
3030
3031		CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
3032		CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
3033
3034		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
3035		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
3036
3037- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
3038		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
3039		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
3040		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
3041
3042		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
3043		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
3044		a boot from specific media.
3045
3046		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
3047		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
3048		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
3049		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
3050		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
3051
3052- Signing support:
3053		CONFIG_RSA
3054
3055		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
3056		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
3057
3058		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
3059		option.
3060
3061- bootcount support:
3062		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
3063
3064		This enables the bootcounter support, see:
3065		http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
3066
3067		CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
3068		enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
3069		CONFIG_BLACKFIN
3070		enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
3071		CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
3072		enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
3073		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
3074		enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
3075		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
3076		enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
3077			CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
3078			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
3079						    the bootcounter.
3080			CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
3081
3082- Show boot progress:
3083		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
3084
3085		Defining this option allows to add some board-
3086		specific code (calling a user-provided function
3087		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
3088		the system's boot progress on some display (for
3089		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
3090		the following checkpoints are implemented:
3091
3092- Detailed boot stage timing
3093		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
3094		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
3095		of the boot process.
3096
3097		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
3098		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
3099		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
3100		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
3101		the limit, recording will stop.
3102
3103		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
3104		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
3105
3106		Timer summary in microseconds:
3107		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
3108			  0          0  reset
3109		  3,575,678  3,575,678  board_init_f start
3110		  3,575,695         17  arch_cpu_init A9
3111		  3,575,777         82  arch_cpu_init done
3112		  3,659,598     83,821  board_init_r start
3113		  3,910,375    250,777  main_loop
3114		 29,916,167 26,005,792  bootm_start
3115		 30,361,327    445,160  start_kernel
3116
3117		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
3118		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
3119		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
3120
3121		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
3122		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
3123		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
3124		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
3125		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
3126		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
3127		For example:
3128
3129		bootstage {
3130			154 {
3131				name = "board_init_f";
3132				mark = <3575678>;
3133			};
3134			170 {
3135				name = "lcd";
3136				accum = <33482>;
3137			};
3138		};
3139
3140		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

3294
3295- legacy image format:
3296		CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3297		enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
3298
3299		Default:
3300		enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
3301
3302		CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
3303		disable the legacy image format
3304
3305		This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
3306		enabled per default for backward compatibility.
3307
3308- FIT image support:
3309		CONFIG_FIT
3310		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
3311
3312		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3313		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3314		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3315		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3316		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3317		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3318
3319		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
3320		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
3321		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See
3322		doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
3323
3324		WARNING: When relying on signed FIT images with required
3325		signature check the legacy image format is default
3326		disabled. If a board need legacy image format support
3327		enable this through CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3328
3329		CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256
3330		Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size.
3331		For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled
3332		with this option.
3333
3334- Standalone program support:
3335		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3336
3337		This option defines a board specific value for the
3338		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
3339		overwriting the architecture dependent default
3340		settings.
3341
3342- Frame Buffer Address:
3343		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
3344
3345		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3346		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
3347		when using a graphics controller has separate video
3348		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3349		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3350		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3351		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3352		configured panel size.
3353
3354		Please see board_init_f function.
3355
3356- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
3357		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
3358		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
3359		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
3360
3361		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
3362		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
3363
3364- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
3365		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
3366
3367		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
3368		Needed for mtdparts command support.
3369
3370		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
3371
3372		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
3373		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
3374
3375		CONFIG_MTD_NAND_VERIFY_WRITE
3376		verify if the written data is correct reread.
3377
3378- UBI support
3379		CONFIG_CMD_UBI
3380
3381		Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3382		with the UBI flash translation layer
3383
3384		Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3385
3386		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3387
3388		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
3389		warnings and errors enabled.
3390
3391
3392		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
3393		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
3394		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
3395		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
3396		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
3397		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
3398
3399		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
3400		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
3401		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
3402		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
3403		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
3404
3405		default: 4096
3406
3407		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
3408		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
3409		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
3410		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
3411		flash), this value is ignored.
3412
3413		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
3414		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
3415		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
3416		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
3417		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
3418		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
3419
3420		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
3421		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
3422		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
3423		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
3424		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
3425		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
3426		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
3427		partition.
3428
3429		default: 20
3430
3431		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
3432		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
3433		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
3434		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
3435		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
3436		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
3437		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
3438		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
3439		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
3440		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
3441		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
3442		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
3443
3444		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
3445		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
3446		without a fastmap.
3447		default: 0
3448
3449- UBIFS support
3450		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3451
3452		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3453		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3454
3455		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3456
3457		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3458

3572		when reading from FAT (for Falcon mode)
3573
3574		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
3575		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
3576		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3577		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3578		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).

3612		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
3613		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
3614		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
3615		to read U-Boot
3616
3617		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT
3618		Add support NAND boot
3619
3620		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
3621		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from
3622
3623		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST
3624		Location in memory to load U-Boot to

3628
3629		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
3630		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
3631
3632		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
3633		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
3634		data. This is used for example on davinci plattforms.
3635
3636		CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND
3637		Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the
3638		ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present.
3639
3640		CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT

3661		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3662
3663		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3664		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3665		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3666		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3667		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3668		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3669
3670		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3671		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3672		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3673		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3674
3675		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3676		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3677		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3678		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3679		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3680
3681- TPL framework
3682		CONFIG_TPL
3683		Enable building of TPL globally.
3684
3685		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
3686		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
3687		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3688		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3689		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3690		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3691
3692Modem Support:
3693--------------
3694
3695[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3696
3697- Modem support enable:
3698		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3699
3700- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3701		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3702
3703- Modem debug support:
3704		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3705
3706		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3707		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3708
3709- Interrupt support (PPC):
3710
3711		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3712		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3713		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3714		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3715		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3716		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3717		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3718		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3719		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3720		general timer_interrupt().
3721
3722- General:
3723
3724		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3725		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3726		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3727		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3728		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3729		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3730		initialization.
3731
3732		If there are no modem init strings in the
3733		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3734		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3735		suppressed, though.
3736
3737		See also: doc/README.Modem
3738
3739Board initialization settings:
3740------------------------------
3741
3742During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3743to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3744before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3745following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3746architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3747typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3748
3749- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3750- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3751- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3752- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3753
3754Configuration Settings:
3755-----------------------
3756
3757- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
3758		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
3759
3760- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3761		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3762
3763- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3764		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3765
3766- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3767		prompt for user input.
3768
3769- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3770
3771- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3772
3773- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3774
3775- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3776		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3777		booted
3778
3779- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3780		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3781
3782- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3783		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3784
3785- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3786		If the board specific function
3787			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3788		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3789		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3790
3791- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3792		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3793
3794- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3795		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3796
3797- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3798		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3799		simple memory test.
3800
3801- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3802		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3803
3804- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3805		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3806		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3807
3808- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3809		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3810		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3811		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3812		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3813		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3814		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3815		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3816		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3817		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3818
3819		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3820		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3821		be touched.
3822
3823		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3824		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3825		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3826		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3827		problems.
3828
3829- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3830		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3831
3832- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3833		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3834
3835- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3836		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3837		Cogent motherboard)
3838
3839- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3840		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3841
3842- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3843		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3844		make config files to be same as the text base address
3845		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3846		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3847
3848- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3849		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3850		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3851		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3852		flash sector.
3853
3854- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3855		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3856
3857- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3858		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3859		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3860		will become available before relocation. The address is just
3861		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3862		space.
3863
3864		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3865		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3866		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3867		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotton) when
3868		U-Boot relocates itself.
3869
3870		Pre-relocation malloc() is only supported on ARM and sandbox
3871		at present but is fairly easy to enable for other archs.
3872
3873- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3874		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3875		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3876		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3877		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3878
3879- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3880		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3881		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3882		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3883		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3884		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3885		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3886		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3887		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3888		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3889		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3890
3891- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3892		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3893		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3894		is enabled.
3895
3896- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3897		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3898		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3899
3900- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3901		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3902		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3903
3904- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3905		Max number of Flash memory banks
3906
3907- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3908		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3909
3910- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3911		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3912
3913- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3914		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3915
3916- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3917		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3918
3919- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3920		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3921
3922- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3923		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3924		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3925
3926- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3927
3928		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3929		without this option such a download has to be
3930		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3931		copy from RAM to flash.
3932
3933		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3934		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3935		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3936		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3937		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3938
3939- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3940		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3941		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3942
3943- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3944		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3945		in the drivers directory
3946
3947- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3948		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3949		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3950		to the MTD layer.
3951
3952- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3953		Use buffered writes to flash.
3954
3955- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3956		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3957		write commands.
3958
3959- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3960		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3961		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3962		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3963		optionally available.
3964
3965- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3966		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3967		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3968		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3969
3970- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3971		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3972		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3973		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3974		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3975		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3976		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3977		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3978
3979- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3980		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3981		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3982		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3983		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3984		on high Ethernet traffic.
3985		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3986
3987- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3988
3989	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3990	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3991	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3992	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3993	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3994
3995- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3996- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3997	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3998	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3999	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
4000	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
4001
4002	The format of the list is:
4003		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
4004		access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
4005		attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
4006		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
4007		list = entry[,list]
4008
4009	The type attributes are:
4010		s - String (default)
4011		d - Decimal
4012		x - Hexadecimal
4013		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
4014		i - IP address
4015		m - MAC address
4016
4017	The access attributes are:
4018		a - Any (default)
4019		r - Read-only
4020		o - Write-once
4021		c - Change-default
4022
4023	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4024		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
4025		envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4026
4027	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4028		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
4029		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
4030		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
4031		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
4032		".flags" variable.
4033
4034- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
4035	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
4036	access flags.
4037
4038- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
4039	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
4040	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
4041	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
4042	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
4043	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
4044	must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
4045	its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
4046	your board please report the problem and send patches!
4047
4048- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
4049	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
4050	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
4051	the value can be calulated on a given board.
4052
4053The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
4054of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
4055following configurations:
4056
4057- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
4058
4059	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
4060	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
4061
4062- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
4063
4064	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
4065
4066	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
4067	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
4068	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
4069	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
4070	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
4071	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
4072	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
4073	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
4074	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
4075	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
4076	   between U-Boot and the environment.
4077
4078	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4079
4080	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
4081	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
4082	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
4083	   for this sector is given here.
4084
4085	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
4086
4087	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4088
4089	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
4090	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
4091	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
4092
4093	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4094
4095	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
4096
4097
4098	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
4099	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
4100	   the environment.
4101
4102	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4103
4104	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
4105	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
4106	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
4107	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
4108
4109	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
4110	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
4111	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
4112	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
4113	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
4114	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
4115	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
4116	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
4117	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
4118
4119	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
4120	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
4121
4122	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
4123	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
4124	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
4125	   a "saveenv" operation.
4126
4127BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
4128source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
4129accordingly!
4130
4131
4132- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
4133
4134	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
4135	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
4136	environment.
4137
4138	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4139	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4140
4141	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
4142	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
4143	  can just be read and written to, without any special
4144	  provision.
4145
4146BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
4147in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
4148console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
4149U-Boot will hang.
4150
4151Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
4152environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
4153keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
4154to save the current settings.
4155
4156
4157- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
4158
4159	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
4160	device and a driver for it.
4161
4162	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4163	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4164
4165	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4166	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
4167
4168	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
4169	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
4170	  The default address is zero.
4171
4172	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
4173	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
4174	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
4175	  would require six bits.
4176
4177	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
4178	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
4179	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
4180
4181	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
4182	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
4183	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
4184
4185	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
4186	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
4187	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
4188	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
4189	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
4190	  byte chips.
4191
4192	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
4193	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
4194	  in the chip address.
4195
4196	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
4197	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
4198
4199	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
4200	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
4201	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
4202
4203	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
4204	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
4205	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
4206	  EEPROM. For example:
4207
4208	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
4209
4210	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
4211	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
4212
4213- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
4214
4215	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
4216	want to use for the environment.
4217
4218	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4219	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4220	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4221
4222	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
4223	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
4224	  at the specified address.
4225
4226- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH:
4227
4228	Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you
4229	want to use for the environment.
4230
4231	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4232	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4233
4234	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4235	  environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4236	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4237
4238	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4239
4240	  Define the SPI flash's sector size.
4241
4242	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4243
4244	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4245	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4246	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4247	  during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4248	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4249
4250	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional):
4251	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional):
4252
4253	  Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0.
4254
4255	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional):
4256
4257	  Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz.
4258
4259	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional):
4260
4261	  Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3.
4262
4263- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
4264
4265	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
4266	want to use for the local device's environment.
4267
4268	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4269	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4270
4271	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
4272	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
4273	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
4274	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
4275
4276BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
4277"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
4278environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
4279but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
4280
4281- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
4282
4283	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
4284	for the environment.
4285
4286	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4287	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4288
4289	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4290	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4291	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4292
4293	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4294
4295	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4296	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4297	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4298	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4299	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4300
4301	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
4302
4303	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
4304	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
4305	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
4306	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
4307	  the range to be avoided.
4308
4309	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
4310
4311	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
4312	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
4313	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
4314	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
4315	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
4316
4317- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
4318
4319	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
4320	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
4321	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4322
4323- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
4324
4325	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
4326	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
4327	accesses, which is important on NAND.
4328
4329	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
4330
4331	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
4332
4333	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
4334
4335	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
4336	  environment in.
4337
4338	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
4339
4340	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
4341	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
4342	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
4343
4344	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
4345	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
4346
4347	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
4348	  when storing the env in UBI.
4349
4350- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT:
4351       Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment.
4352
4353       - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE:
4354
4355         Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.
4356
4357       - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
4358
4359         Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
4360         be as following:
4361
4362           "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1)
4363               - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no
4364                        partition table.
4365               - "D:0": device D.
4366               - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition
4367                              table, or the whole device D if has no partition
4368                              table.
4369               - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
4370                           If none, first valid paratition in device D. If no
4371                           partition table then means device D.
4372
4373       - FAT_ENV_FILE:
4374
4375         It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the
4376         envrionment.
4377
4378       - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE:
4379         This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the envrionment file.
4380
4381- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
4382
4383	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
4384	environment.
4385
4386	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4387
4388	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4389
4390	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4391
4392	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4393	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4394	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4395
4396	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4397	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4398
4399	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4400	  area within the specified MMC device.
4401
4402	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4403	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4404	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4405	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4406	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4407	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4408	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4409
4410	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4411	  MMC sector boundary.
4412
4413	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4414
4415	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4416	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4417	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4418	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4419
4420	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4421	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4422
4423	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4424	  an MMC sector boundary.
4425
4426	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4427
4428	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4429	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4430	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4431
4432- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
4433
4434	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4435	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4436	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4437	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4438	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4439	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4440	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4441
4442Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
4443has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
4444created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
4445until then to read environment variables.
4446
4447The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4448is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4449with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4450necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4451"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4452have any device yet where we could complain.]
4453
4454Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4455the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
4456use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
4457
4458- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
4459		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
4460
4461		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
4462		      also needs to be defined.
4463
4464- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
4465		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
4466
4467- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
4468		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
4469		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
4470		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
4471		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
4472		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
4473
4474- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
4475		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
4476		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
4477		to do this.
4478
4479- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
4480		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
4481		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
4482		present.
4483
4484- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
4485		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
4486		build system checks that the actual size does not
4487		exceed it.
4488
4489Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
4490---------------------------------------------------
4491
4492- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
4493		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
4494
4495- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
4496		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
4497
4498		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4499		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
4500		the IMMR register after a reset.
4501
4502- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4503		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4504		PowerPC SOCs.
4505
4506- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4507		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4508		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4509
4510		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4511		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4512
4513- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4514		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
4515		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
4516		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
4517		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
4518		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
4519		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4520
4521		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4522			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4523
4524- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
4525		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
4526		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
4527		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4528		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4529
4530- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4531		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
4532		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4533		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4534
4535- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4536		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4537		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
4538
4539- Floppy Disk Support:
4540		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
4541
4542		the default drive number (default value 0)
4543
4544		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4545
4546		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4547		(default value 1)
4548
4549		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4550
4551		defines the offset of register from address. It
4552		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4553		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4554
4555		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4556		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4557		default value.
4558
4559		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4560		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4561		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4562		source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
4563		initializations.
4564
4565- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4566		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4567		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4568		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4569		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4570		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4571		is requierd.
4572
4573- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4574		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4575		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4576
4577- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4578
4579		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4580		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4581		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4582		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4583		will become available only after programming the
4584		memory controller and running certain initialization
4585		sequences.
4586
4587		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4588		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4589		- MPC824X: data cache
4590		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4591
4592- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4593
4594		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4595		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4596		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4597		data is located at the end of the available space
4598		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4599		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4600		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4601		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4602
4603	Note:
4604		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4605		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4606		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4607		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4608		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.
4609

4645
4646- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4647		enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4648		define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2]
4649
4650- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4651		enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4652		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1]
4653
4654- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4655		enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4656		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4]
4657
4658- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK:
4659		Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful,
4660		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4661		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4662
4663- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4664		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4665		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4666		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.
4667		cpm_8260.h.
4668
4669- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4670  CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4676  CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only)
4677		Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
4678
4679- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4680		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4681		required.
4682
4683- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4684		Only scan through and get the devices on the busses.
4685		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4686		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4687		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4688		by coreboot or similar.
4689
4690- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4691		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4692
4693- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
4694		Chip has SRIO or not
4695
4696- CONFIG_SRIO1:
4697		Board has SRIO 1 port available
4698
4699- CONFIG_SRIO2:
4700		Board has SRIO 2 port available
4701
4702- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER
4703		Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE
4704
4705- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT:
4706		Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4707
4708- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS:
4709		Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region

4711- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE:
4712		Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4713
4714- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
4715		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
4716		a 16 bit bus.
4717		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
4718		Example of drivers that use it:
4719		- drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c

4721
4722- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG
4723		Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined
4724		a default value will be used.
4725
4726- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM
4727		Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common
4728		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
4729
4730  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
4731		I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
4732
4733- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
4734		If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
4735		one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
4736		to something your driver can deal with.
4737
4738- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4739		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4740		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
4741		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
4742		header files or board specific files.
4743
4744- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
4745		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4746
4747- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4748		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4749		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4750
4751- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4752		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4753
4754- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4755		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4756		to the given FEC; i. e.
4757			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4758		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4759
4760		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4761
4762- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4763		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4764		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4765
4766- CONFIG_RMII
4767		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4768		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4769		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4770
4771- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4772		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4773		The syntax is:
4774
4775		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4776
4777		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4778		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4779		area should have.
4780
4781- CONFIG_LOOPW
4782		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4783		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4784
4785- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4786		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4787		"md/mw" commands.
4788		Examples:
4789
4790		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4791		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4792
4793		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4794		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4795
4796		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4797		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4798
4799- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4800		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4801		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4802		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4803		relocate itself into RAM.
4804
4805		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4806		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4807		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4808		these initializations itself.
4809
4810- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4811		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4812		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4813		compiling a NAND SPL.
4814
4815- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4816		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4817		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4818		It is loaded by the SPL.
4819
4820- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4821		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4822		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4823		previous 4k of the .text section.
4824
4825- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4826		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4827		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4828		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4829		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4830		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4831		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4832		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4833
4834- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4835  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4836		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4837		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4838		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4839
4840- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4841		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4842		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4843
4844- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4845		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4846
4847		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4848
4849- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4850		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4851
4852- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
4853		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
4854		driver that uses this:
4855		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
4856
4857Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4858-----------------------------------
4859
4860The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4861loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4862This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4863are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4864within that device.
4865
4866- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4867	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
4868	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4869	is also specified.
4870
4871- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
4872	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
4873	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4874	is also specified.
4875
4876- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4877	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4878	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4879	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4880	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4881
4882- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4883	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4884	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4885	virtual address in NOR flash.
4886
4887- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4888	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4889	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4890
4891- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4892	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4893	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4894
4895- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4896	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4897	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4898
4899- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4900	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4901	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4902	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4903	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4904	master's memory space.
4905
4906Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
4907---------------------------------------------------------
4908The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
4909"firmware".
4910This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4911are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4912within that device.
4913
4914- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
4915	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
4916
4917- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR
4918	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4919	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro
4920	is also specified.
4921
4922- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH
4923	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4924	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4925	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4926	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4927
4928- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR
4929	Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4930	normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
4931	virtual address in NOR flash.
4932
4933Building the Software:
4934======================
4935
4936Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4937and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4938all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4939(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4940recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4941which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4942
4943If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4944have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4945you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4946Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4947necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4948
4949	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4950	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
4951
4952Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4953      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4954      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4955      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
4956
4957       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4958
4959      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4960      be executed on computers running Windows.
4961
4962U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4963sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4964is done by typing:
4965
4966	make NAME_defconfig
4967
4968where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
4969rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
4970
4971Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4972      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
4973      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
4974      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
4975      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4976
4977      make TQM823L_defconfig
4978	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4979
4980      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
4981	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
4982
4983      etc.
4984
4985
4986Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
4987images ready for download to / installation on your system:
4988
4989- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
4990- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
4991- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
4992
4993By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4994in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4995this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4996
49971. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4998
4999	make O=/tmp/build distclean
5000	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
5001	make O=/tmp/build all
5002
50032. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
5004
5005	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
5006	make distclean
5007	make NAME_defconfig
5008	make all
5009
5010Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
5011variable.
5012
5013
5014Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
5015for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
5016native "make".
5017
5018
5019If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
5020to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
5021steps:
5022
50231.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
5024    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
5025    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
50262.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
5027    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
5028    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
50293.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
5030    your board
50313.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
5032    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
50334.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
50345.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
5035    to be installed on your target system.
50366.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
5037    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
5038
5039
5040Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
5041==============================================================
5042
5043If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
5044or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
5045provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
5046the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
5047official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
5048
5049But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
5050cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
5051the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
5052just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
5053for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
5054select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
5055environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
5056you can type
5057
5058	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5059
5060or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
5061
5062	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
5063
5064When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
5065U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
5066setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
5067built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
5068<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
5069location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
5070variable. For example:
5071
5072	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
5073	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
5074	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5075
5076With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
5077log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
5078during the whole build process.

5135
5136TODO.
5137
5138For now: just type "help <command>".
5139
5140
5141Environment Variables:
5142======================
5143
5144U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
5145can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
5146
5147Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
5148"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
5149without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
5150environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
5151working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
5152environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
5153
5154Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
5155
5156List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
5157
5158  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
5159
5160  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
5161
5162  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
5163
5164  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
5165
5166  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
5167
5168  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5169		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5170		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
5171		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
5172		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
5173		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
5174		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
5175		  bootm_mapsize.
5176
5177  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
5178		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
5179		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
5180		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
5181		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
5182		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
5183		  used otherwise.
5184
5185  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5186		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5187		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
5188		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
5189		  environment variable.
5190
5191  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
5192		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
5193		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
5194
5195  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
5196		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
5197		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
5198		  load any image using TFTP
5199
5200  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
5201		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
5202		  be automatically started (by internally calling
5203		  "bootm")
5204
5205		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
5206		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
5207		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
5208		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
5209		  data.
5210
5211  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
5212		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
5213		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
5214		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
5215		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
5216		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
5217		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
5218		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
5219		  access it during the boot procedure.
5220
5221		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
5222		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
5223		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
5224		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
5225		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
5226		  must be accessible by the kernel.
5227
5228  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
5229		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
5230		  defined.
5231
5232  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
5233		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
5234		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
5235		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
5236		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
5237
5238  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
5239		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
5240		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
5241		  is usually what you want since it allows for
5242		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
5243		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
5244		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
5245		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
5246		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
5247		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
5248		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
5249
5250		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
5251		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
5252		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
5253		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
5254		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
5255		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
5256
5257		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
5258
5259		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
5260		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
5261		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
5262		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
5263		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
5264		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
5265		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
5266
5267  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5268
5269  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
5270		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
5271
5272  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
5273
5274  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5275
5276  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
5277
5278  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
5279
5280  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
5281
5282  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
5283
5284  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
5285		  For example you can do the following
5286
5287		  => setenv ethact FEC
5288		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
5289		  => setenv ethact SCC
5290		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
5291
5292  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
5293		  available network interfaces.
5294		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
5295
5296  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
5297		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
5298		  When set to "once" the network operation will
5299		  fail when all the available network interfaces
5300		  are tried once without success.
5301		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
5302		  themselves.
5303
5304  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
5305
5306  silent_linux  - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by
5307		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
5308		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
5309		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
5310		  is silent.
5311
5312  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
5313		  UDP source port.
5314
5315  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
5316		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
5317
5318  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
5319		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
5320
5321  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
5322		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
5323		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
5324		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
5325		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
5326		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
5327		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
5328
5329  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
5330		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
5331		  VLAN tagged frames.
5332
5333The following image location variables contain the location of images
5334used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
5335not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
5336variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
5337server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
5338loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
5339flash or offset in NAND flash.
5340
5341*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
5342boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
5343boards use these variables for other purposes.
5344
5345Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
5346-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
5347u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
5348Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
5349device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
5350ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
5351
5352The following environment variables may be used and automatically
5353updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
5354depending the information provided by your boot server:
5355
5356  bootfile	- see above
5357  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
5358  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5359  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5360  hostname	- Target hostname
5361  ipaddr	- see above
5362  netmask	- Subnet Mask
5363  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5364  serverip	- see above
5365
5366
5367There are two special Environment Variables:
5368
5369  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
5370		  as type string and/or serial number
5371  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
5372
5373These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5374the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5375once they have been set once.
5376
5377
5378Further special Environment Variables:
5379
5380  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5381		  with the "version" command. This variable is
5382		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
5383
5384
5385Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
5386only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
5387
5388
5389Callback functions for environment variables:
5390---------------------------------------------
5391
5392For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5393when their values are changed.  This functionailty allows functions to
5394be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
5395deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5396effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5397
5398The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5399U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5400
5401These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
5402static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5403in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5404associations.  The list must be in the following format:
5405
5406	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5407	list = entry[,list]
5408
5409If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5410Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5411
5412Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5413with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
5414override any association in the static list. You can define
5415CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5416".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5417
5418
5419Command Line Parsing:
5420=====================
5421
5422There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5423the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5424
5425Old, simple command line parser:
5426--------------------------------
5427
5428- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5429- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5430- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5431- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5432  for example:
5433	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5434- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5435	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5436
5437Hush shell:
5438-----------
5439
5440- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5441  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5442  until...do...done, ...
5443- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5444  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5445  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5446  command
5447
5448General rules:
5449--------------
5450
5451(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5452    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5453    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5454    executed anyway.
5455
5456(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5457    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5458    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5459    variables are not executed.
5460
5461Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5462=======================================
5463
5464Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5465such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5466"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5467
5468Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5469MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5470"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5471
5472If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5473in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5474ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5475variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5476
5477o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5478  environment, the SROM's address is used.
5479
5480o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5481  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5482  used.
5483
5484o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5485  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5486
5487o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5488  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5489  warning is printed.
5490
5491o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5492  is raised.
5493
5494If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5495will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
5496may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5497The naming convention is as follows:
5498"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5499
5500Image Formats:
5501==============
5502
5503U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5504images in two formats:
5505
5506New uImage format (FIT)
5507-----------------------
5508
5509Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5510to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5511components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5512SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5513
5514
5515Old uImage format
5516-----------------
5517
5518Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5519preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5520details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5521
5522* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5523  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5524  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5525  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5526  INTEGRITY).
5527* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5528  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5529  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5530* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5531* Load Address
5532* Entry Point
5533* Image Name
5534* Image Timestamp
5535
5536The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5537and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5538CRC32 checksums.
5539
5540
5541Linux Support:
5542==============
5543
5544Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5545easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5546U-Boot.
5547
5548U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5549special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5550"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5551instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5552serves several purposes:
5553
5554- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5555  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5556  Flash memory footprint)
5557
5558- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5559  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5560
5561- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5562  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5563  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5564  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5565  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5566  software is easier now.
5567
5568
5569Linux HOWTO:
5570============
5571
5572Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5573---------------------------------------
5574
5575U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5576configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5577(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5578Linux :-).
5579
5580But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5581
5582Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5583include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5584Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5585and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5586as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5587
5588Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
5589If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
5590is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
5591doc/driver-model.
5592
5593
5594Configuring the Linux kernel:
5595-----------------------------
5596
5597No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5598device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5599
5600
5601Building a Linux Image:
5602-----------------------
5603
5604With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5605not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5606"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5607U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5608which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5609100% compatible format.
5610
5611Example:
5612
5613	make TQM850L_defconfig
5614	make oldconfig
5615	make dep
5616	make uImage
5617
5618The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5619encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5620CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5621
5622* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5623
5624* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5625
5626	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5627				 -R .note -R .comment \
5628				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5629
5630* compress the binary image:
5631
5632	gzip -9 linux.bin
5633
5634* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5635
5636	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5637		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5638		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5639
5640
5641The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5642with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5643combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5644byte header containing information about target architecture,
5645operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5646stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5647
5648"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5649print the header information, or to build new images.
5650
5651In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5652contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5653checksum verification:
5654
5655	tools/mkimage -l image
5656	  -l ==> list image header information
5657
5658The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5659from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5660
5661	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5662		      -n name -d data_file image
5663	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5664	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5665	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5666	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5667	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5668	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5669	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5670	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5671
5672Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5673address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5674kernel version:
5675
5676- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5677- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5678
5679So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5680
5681	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5682	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5683	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5684	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5685	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5686	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5687	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5688	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5689	Load Address: 0x00000000
5690	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5691
5692To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5693
5694	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5695	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5696	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5697	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5698	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5699	Load Address: 0x00000000
5700	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5701
5702NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5703speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5704needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5705need to be uncompressed:
5706
5707	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5708	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5709	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5710	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5711	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5712	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5713	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5714	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5715	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5716	Load Address: 0x00000000
5717	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5718
5719
5720Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5721when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5722
5723	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5724	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5725	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5726	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5727	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5728	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5729	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5730	Load Address: 0x00000000
5731	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5732
5733The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5734option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5735option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5736from the image:
5737
5738	tools/dumpimage -i image -p position data_file
5739	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file', \
5740	   indexed by 'position'
5741
5742
5743Installing a Linux Image:
5744-------------------------
5745
5746To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5747you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5748
5749	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5750
5751The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5752image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5753address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5754specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5755command.
5756
5757Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5758TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5759
5760	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5761
5762	.......... done
5763	Erased 8 sectors
5764
5765	=> loads 40100000
5766	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5767	~>examples/image.srec
5768	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
5769	...
5770	15989 15990 15991 15992
5771	[file transfer complete]
5772	[connected]
5773	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5774
5775
5776You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5777this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5778corruption happened:
5779
5780	=> imi 40100000
5781
5782	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
5783	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L
5784	   Image Type:	 PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5785	   Data Size:	 335725 Bytes = 327 kB = 0 MB
5786	   Load Address: 00000000
5787	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
5788	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
5789
5790
5791Boot Linux:
5792-----------
5793
5794The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5795memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5796of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5797parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5798"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5799
5800
5801	=> printenv bootargs
5802	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5803
5804	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5805
5806	=> printenv bootargs
5807	bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5808
5809	=> bootm 40020000
5810	## Booting Linux kernel at 40020000 ...

5824
5825If you want to boot a Linux kernel with initial RAM disk, you pass
5826the memory addresses of both the kernel and the initrd image (PPBCOOT
5827format!) to the "bootm" command:
5828
5829	=> imi 40100000 40200000

5923More About U-Boot Image Types:
5924------------------------------
5925
5926U-Boot supports the following image types:
5927
5928   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5929	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5930	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5931	the Standalone Program.
5932   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5933	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5934	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5935	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5936	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5937   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5938	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5939	being started.
5940   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5941	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5942	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5943	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5944	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5945	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5946
5947	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5948	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5949	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5950	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5951	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5952	a multiple of 4 bytes).
5953
5954   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5955	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5956	flash memory.
5957
5958   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5959	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5960	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5961	as command interpreter.
5962
5963Booting the Linux zImage:
5964-------------------------
5965
5966On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5967using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5968as the syntax of "bootm" command.
5969
5970Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5971kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5972address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5973format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
5974
5975
5976Standalone HOWTO:
5977=================
5978
5979One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5980run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5981U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5982
5983Two simple examples are included with the sources:
5984
5985"Hello World" Demo:
5986-------------------
5987
5988'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5989application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5990It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5991like that:
5992
5993	=> loads
5994	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5995	~>examples/hello_world.srec
5996	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
5997	[file transfer complete]
5998	[connected]
5999	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
6000
6001	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
6002	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
6003	Hello World
6004	argc = 7
6005	argv[0] = "40004"
6006	argv[1] = "Hello"
6007	argv[2] = "World!"
6008	argv[3] = "This"
6009	argv[4] = "is"
6010	argv[5] = "a"
6011	argv[6] = "test."
6012	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
6013	Hit any key to exit ...
6014
6015	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
6016
6017Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
6018handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
6019Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
6020The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
6021character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
6022controlled by the following keys:
6023
6024	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
6025	b - enable interrupts and start timer
6026	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
6027	q - quit application
6028
6029	=> loads

6064Minicom warning:
6065================
6066
6067Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
6068"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
6069consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
6070Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
6071especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
6072use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
6073http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
6074for help with kermit.
6075
6076
6077Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
6078configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
6079
6080	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
6081	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N
6082	Y  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r	 N    D	   Y	   N	  N
6083
6084
6085NetBSD Notes:
6086=============
6087
6088Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
6089(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
6090
6091Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
6092NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
6093need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
6094Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
6095attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
6096missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
6097
6098	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
6099	# mkdir powerpc
6100	# ln -s powerpc machine
6101	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
6102	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
6103
6104Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
6105and U-Boot include files.
6106
6107Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
6108stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
6109proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
6110tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
6111meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
6112
6113
6114Implementation Internals:
6115=========================
6116
6117The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
6118implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
6119inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
6120hardware.
6121
6122
6123Initial Stack, Global Data:
6124---------------------------
6125
6126The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
6127starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
6128system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
6129This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
6130is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
6131at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
6132options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
6133models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
6134MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
6135locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
6136
6137	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
6138	U-Boot mailing list:
6139
6140	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
6141	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
6142	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
6143	...
6144
6145	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
6146	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
6147	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
6148	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
6149	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
6150	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
6151	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
6152	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
6153
6154	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
6155	is another option for the system designer to use as an
6156	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
6157	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
6158	board designers haven't used it for something that would
6159	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
6160	used.
6161
6162	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
6163	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
6164	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
6165	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
6166	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
6167	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
6168	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
6169	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
6170	you get the config right.

6174
6175It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
6176code for the initialization procedures:
6177
6178* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
6179  to write it.
6180
6181* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
6182  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
6183  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
6184
6185* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
6186  that.
6187
6188Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
6189normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
6190turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
6191simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
6192functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
6193functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
6194the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
6195place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
6196reserve for this purpose.
6197
6198When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
6199relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
6200GCC's implementation.
6201
6202For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
6203	R1:	stack pointer
6204	R2:	reserved for system use
6205	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
6206	R5-R10: parameter passing
6207	R13:	small data area pointer
6208	R30:	GOT pointer
6209	R31:	frame pointer
6210
6211	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
6212	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
6213	going back and forth between asm and C)
6214
6215    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
6216
6217    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
6218    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
6219    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
6220    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
6221    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
6222    624 text + 127 data).
6223
6224On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
6225	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
6226
6227    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
6228
6229On ARM, the following registers are used:
6230
6231	R0:	function argument word/integer result
6232	R1-R3:	function argument word
6233	R9:	platform specific
6234	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
6235	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
6236	R12:	temporary workspace
6237	R13:	stack pointer
6238	R14:	link register
6239	R15:	program counter
6240
6241    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
6242
6243    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
6244
6245On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
6246	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
6247
6248    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
6249
6250    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
6251    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
6252
6253On NDS32, the following registers are used:
6254
6255	R0-R1:	argument/return
6256	R2-R5:	argument
6257	R15:	temporary register for assembler
6258	R16:	trampoline register
6259	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
6260	R29:	global pointer (GP)
6261	R30:	link register (LP)
6262	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
6263	PC:	program counter (PC)
6264
6265    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
6266
6267NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
6268or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
6269
6270Memory Management:
6271------------------
6272
6273U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
6274MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
6275
6276The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
6277controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
6278memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
6279physical memory banks.
6280
6281U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
6282TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
6283booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
6284to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
6285memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
6286configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
6287Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
6288
6289Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
6290of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
6291
6292So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
6293this:
6294
6295	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
6296	      :
6297	0x0000 1FFF
6298	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
6299	      :
6300	      :
6301
6302	      :
6303	      :
6304	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
6305	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
6306	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
6307	      :
6308	0x00FD FFFF
6309	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
6310	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
6311	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
6312	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
6313
6314
6315System Initialization:
6316----------------------
6317
6318In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
6319(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
6320configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
6321To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
6322To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
6323initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
6324which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
6325part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
6326the caches and the SIU.
6327
6328Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
6329preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
6330(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
6331on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
6332programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
6333simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
6334banks.
6335
6336When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
6337different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
6338bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
63390x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
6340contiguous memory starting from 0.
6341
6342Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
6343and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
6344Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
6345pages, and the final stack is set up.
6346
6347Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
6348until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
6349running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
6350new address in RAM.

6427Coding Standards:
6428-----------------
6429
6430All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6431coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6432"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6433
6434Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6435MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6436reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6437sources.
6438
6439Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6440Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6441in your code.
6442
6443Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6444- remove any trailing white space
6445- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6446- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6447- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6448- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6449
6450Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6451with a request to reformat the changes.
6452
6453
6454Submitting Patches:
6455-------------------
6456
6457Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6458establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6459may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6460
6461Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6462
6463Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6464see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6465
6466When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6467it:
6468
6469* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6470  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6471  patch actually fixes something.
6472
6473* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6474  implementation.
6475
6476* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6477
6478* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
6479
6480* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6481  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6482
6483* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6484  document these in the README file.
6485
6486* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6487  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6488  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6489  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6490  with some other mail clients.
6491
6492  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6493  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6494  GNU diff.
6495
6496  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6497  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6498  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6499  affected files).
6500
6501  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6502  and compressed attachments must not be used.
6503
6504* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6505  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6506
6507* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6508  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6509
6510
6511Notes:
6512
6513* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6514  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6515  for any of the boards.
6516
6517* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6518  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6519  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6520
6521* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6522  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6523  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6524  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6525  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6526  modification.
6527
6528* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6529  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6530  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6531  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
