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:

225Software Configuration:
226=======================
227
228Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
229rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
230
231There are two classes of configuration variables:
232
233* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
234  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
235  "CONFIG_".
236
237* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
238  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
239  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
240  "CONFIG_SYS_".
241
242Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
243identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
244do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
245links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
246as an example here.
247
248
249Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
250---------------------------------------------------
251
252For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
253configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig".
254
255Example: For a TQM823L module type:
256
257	cd u-boot
258	make TQM823L_defconfig
259
260For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
261e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_defconfig". And also configure the cogent
262directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
263
264
265Sandbox Environment:
266--------------------
267
268U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox'
269board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture-
270specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to
271run some of U-Boot's tests.
272
273See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details.
274
275
276Board Initialisation Flow:
277--------------------------
278
279This is the intended start-up flow for boards. This should apply for both
280SPL and U-Boot proper (i.e. they both follow the same rules). At present SPL
281mostly uses a separate code path, but the funtion names and roles of each
282function are the same. Some boards or architectures may not conform to this.
283At least most ARM boards which use CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK conform to this.
284
285Execution starts with start.S with three functions called during init after
286that. The purpose and limitations of each is described below.
287
288lowlevel_init():
289	- purpose: essential init to permit execution to reach board_init_f()
290	- no global_data or BSS
291	- there is no stack (ARMv7 may have one but it will soon be removed)
292	- must not set up SDRAM or use console
293	- must only do the bare minimum to allow execution to continue to
294		board_init_f()
295	- this is almost never needed
296	- return normally from this function
297
298board_init_f():
299	- purpose: set up the machine ready for running board_init_r():
300		i.e. SDRAM and serial UART
301	- global_data is available
302	- stack is in SRAM
303	- BSS is not available, so you cannot use global/static variables,
304		only stack variables and global_data
305
306	Non-SPL-specific notes:
307	- dram_init() is called to set up DRAM. If already done in SPL this
308		can do nothing
309
310	SPL-specific notes:
311	- you can override the entire board_init_f() function with your own
312		version as needed.
313	- preloader_console_init() can be called here in extremis
314	- should set up SDRAM, and anything needed to make the UART work
315	- these is no need to clear BSS, it will be done by crt0.S
316	- must return normally from this function (don't call board_init_r()
317		directly)
318
319Here the BSS is cleared. For SPL, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined, then at
320this point the stack and global_data are relocated to below
321CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR. For non-SPL, U-Boot is relocated to run at the top of
322memory.
323
324board_init_r():
325	- purpose: main execution, common code
326	- global_data is available
327	- SDRAM is available
328	- BSS is available, all static/global variables can be used
329	- execution eventually continues to main_loop()
330
331	Non-SPL-specific notes:
332	- U-Boot is relocated to the top of memory and is now running from
333		there.
334
335	SPL-specific notes:
336	- stack is optionally in SDRAM, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined and
337		CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR points into SDRAM
338	- preloader_console_init() can be called here - typically this is
339		done by defining CONFIG_SPL_BOARD_INIT and then supplying a
340		spl_board_init() function containing this call
341	- loads U-Boot or (in falcon mode) Linux
342
343
344
345Configuration Options:
346----------------------
347
348Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
349such information is kept in a configuration file
350"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
351
352Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
353"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
354
355
356Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
357kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
358build a config tool - later.
359
360
361The following options need to be configured:
362
363- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
364
365- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
366
367- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
368		Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
369
370- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
371		Define exactly one of
372		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
373--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
374		CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
375		CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
376
377- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
378		Define exactly one of
379		CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
380
381- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
382		Define one or more of
383		CONFIG_CMA302
384
385- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
386		Define one or more of
387		CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT	- update a character position on
388					  the LCD display every second with
389					  a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
390
391- Marvell Family Member
392		CONFIG_SYS_MVFS		- define it if you want to enable
393					  multiple fs option at one time
394					  for marvell soc family
395
396- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
397		CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ	- deprecated: CPU clock if
398					  get_gclk_freq() cannot work
399					  e.g. if there is no 32KHz
400					  reference PIT/RTC clock
401		CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK	- PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
402					  or XTAL/EXTAL)
403
404- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
405		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
406		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
407		CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
408			See doc/README.MPC866
409
410		CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
411
412		Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
413		of relying on the correctness of the configured
414		values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
415		the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
416		that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
417		RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
418
419		CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
420
421		Define this option if you want to enable the
422		ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
423
424- 85xx CPU Options:
425		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
426
427		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
428		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
429		compliance, among other possible reasons.
430
431		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
432
433		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
434		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
435		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
436
437		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
438
439		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
440		tree nodes for the given platform.
441
442		CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
443
444		Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
445		around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
446		support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
447		breakpoints and single stepping do not work.  The value of this
448		symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
449		purpose.
450
451		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
452
453		Enables a workaround for erratum A004510.  If set,
454		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
455		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
456
457		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
458		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
459
460		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
461		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
462
463		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
464		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
465		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
466		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
467
468		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
469		this erratum.
470
471		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
472		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
473		required during NOR boot.
474
475		CONFIG_A008044_WORKAROUND
476		Enables a workaround for T1040/T1042 erratum A008044. It is only
477		required during NAND boot and valid for Rev 1.0 SoC revision
478
479		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
480
481		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
482		according to the A004510 workaround.
483
484		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
485		This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
486		connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
487
488		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
489		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
490		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
491
492		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
493		This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
494		connected to the DSP core.
495
496		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
497		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
498
499		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
500		Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
501		In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
502		clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
503
504		CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F
505		This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the
506		time of U-boot entry and is required to be re-initialized.
507
508		CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP
509		Indicates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is
510		supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up.
511
512- Generic CPU options:
513		CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA
514		Defines global data is initialized in generic board board_init_f().
515		If this macro is defined, global data is created and cleared in
516		generic board board_init_f(). Without this macro, architecture/board
517		should initialize global data before calling board_init_f().
518
519		CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
520
521		Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
522		values is arch specific.
523

634- MIPS CPU options:
635		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET
636
637		Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack
638		pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before

661
662		Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
663		XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to

665
666- ARM options:
667		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
668
669		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
670		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
671
672		CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
673
674		Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
675		set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
676		better code density. For ARM architectures that support
677		Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
678		GCC.
679
680		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
681		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
682		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
683		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
684		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072
685		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_761320
686
687		If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
688		during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
689		workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
690		exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
691		set these options unless they apply!
692
693		COUNTER_FREQUENCY
694		Generic timer clock source frequency.
695
696		COUNTER_FREQUENCY_REAL

702		do have ability to provide rudimentary version and machine
703		specific checks, but expect no product checks.
704		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_430973
705		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_454179
706		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_621766
707		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_798870
708
709- Tegra SoC options:
710		CONFIG_TEGRA_SUPPORT_NON_SECURE
711
712		Support executing U-Boot in non-secure (NS) mode. Certain
713		impossible actions will be skipped if the CPU is in NS mode,
714		such as ARM architectural timer initialization.
715
716- Linux Kernel Interface:
717		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
718
719		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
720		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
721		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
722		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
723		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
724		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
725		Linux kernel.
726		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
727		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
728		default environment.
729
730		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
731
732		When transferring memsize parameter to Linux, some versions
733		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
734		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
735
736		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
737
738		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
739		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
740		concepts).
741
742		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
743		 * New libfdt-based support
744		 * Adds the "fdt" command
745		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
746
747		OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
748			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
749		OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
750			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
751		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
752		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
753
754		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
755		addresses
756
757		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
758
759		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
760		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
761
762		CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP
763
764		Other code has addition modification that it wants to make
765		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel.
766		This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting
767		the kernel.
768
769		CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
770
771		This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
772		param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
773
774		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
775
776		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
777		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
778		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
779		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
780		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
781		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
782
783		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
784
785		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
786		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
787		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
788		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
789		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
790		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
791		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
792
793- vxWorks boot parameters:
794
795		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
796		environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
797		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
798
799		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
800		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
801		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
802		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
803
804		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
805
806		Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
807
808		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
809		the defaults discussed just above.
810
811- Cache Configuration:
812		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
813		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
814		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
815
816- Cache Configuration for ARM:
817		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
818				      controller
819		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
820					controller register space
821
822- Serial Ports:
823		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
824
825		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
826
827		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
828
829		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
830
831		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
832
833		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
834		the clock speed of the UARTs.
835
836		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
837
838		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
839		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
840		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
841
842		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
843
844		Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
845		have separate receive and transmit line control registers.  Set
846		this variable to initialize the extra register.
847
848		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
849
850		On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
851		boot loader that has already initialized the UART.  Define this
852		variable to flush the UART at init time.
853
854		CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
855
856		Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
857		Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
858
859- Console Interface:
860		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
861		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
862		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
863		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
864
865		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
866		port routines must be defined elsewhere
867		(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
868
869		CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
870		Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
871		defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
872			VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN	graphic memory organisation
873						(default big endian)
874			VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL	graphic chip supports
875						rectangle fill
876						(cf. smiLynxEM)
877			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
878						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
879			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
880						(cols=pitch)
881			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS	visible pixel rows
882			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE	bytes per pixel
883			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
884						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
885			VIDEO_FB_ADRS		framebuffer address
886			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
887						(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
888			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
889						(i.e. i8042_tstc)
890			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
891						(i.e. i8042_getc)
892			CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR	cursor drawing on/off
893						(requires blink timer
894						cf. i8042.c)
895			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
896			CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME	display time/date info in
897						upper right corner
898						(requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
899			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO	display Linux logo in
900						upper left corner
901			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO	use bmp_logo.h instead of
902						linux_logo.h for logo.
903						Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
904			CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
905						additional board info beside
906						the logo
907
908		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
909		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
910		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
911
912		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
913		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
914		environment 'console=serial'.
915
916		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
917		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
918		the "silent" environment variable. See
919		doc/README.silent for more information.
920
921		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
922			is 0x00.
923		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
924			is 0xa0.
925
926- Console Baudrate:
927		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
928		Select one of the baudrates listed in
929		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
930		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
931
932- Console Rx buffer length
933		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
934		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
935		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
936		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
937		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
938		the SMC.
939
940- Pre-Console Buffer:
941		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
942		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
943		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
944		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
945		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
946		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
947		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
948		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
949		earlier bytes are discarded.
950
951		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
952		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
953
954- Safe printf() functions
955		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
956		the printf() functions. These are defined in
957		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
958		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
959		If this option is not given then these functions will
960		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
961		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
962
963- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
964		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
965		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
966		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
967		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
968
969		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
970		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
971		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
972		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
973		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
974		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
975		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
976		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
977		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
978		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
979		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
980		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
981
982- Autoboot Command:
983		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
984		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
985		define a command string that is automatically executed
986		when no character is read on the console interface
987		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
988
989		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
990		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
991		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
992		environment value "bootargs".
993
994		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
995		The value of these goes into the environment as
996		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
997		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
998		RAM and NFS.
999
1000- Bootcount:
1001		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
1002		Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
1003		cycle, see:
1004		http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
1005
1006		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
1007		If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
1008		"bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
1009		saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
1010		"upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
1011		0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
1012		1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
1013		So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
1014		and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
1015
1016- Pre-Boot Commands:
1017		CONFIG_PREBOOT
1018
1019		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
1020		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
1021		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
1022		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
1023		entering interactive mode.
1024
1025		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
1026		automatically generated or modified. For an example
1027		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
1028		modified when the user holds down a certain
1029		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
1030		booting the systems
1031
1032- Serial Download Echo Mode:
1033		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
1034		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
1035		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
1036		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
1037		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
1038		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
1039		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
1040
1041- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
1042		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
1043		Select one of the baudrates listed in
1044		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
1045
1046- Monitor Functions:
1047		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
1048		from the build by using the #include files
1049		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
1050		commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
1051		and augmenting with additional #define's
1052		for wanted commands.
1053
1054		The default command configuration includes all commands
1055		except those marked below with a "*".
1056
1057		CONFIG_CMD_AES		  AES 128 CBC encrypt/decrypt

1166		support you can write:
1167
1168		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
1169		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1170
1171	Other Commands:
1172		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1173
1174	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1175		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1176		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1177		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1178		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1179		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1180		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1181		initial stack and some data.
1182
1183
1184		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1185
1186- Regular expression support:
1187		CONFIG_REGEX
1188		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1189		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1190		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1191		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1192
1193- Device tree:
1194		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1195		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1196		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1197		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1198		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1199		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1200
1201		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1202		be done using one of the two options below:
1203
1204		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1205		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1206		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1207		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1208		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1209		the global data structure as gd->blob.
1210
1211		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1212		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1213		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1214		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1215
1216			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1217
1218		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1219		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1220		still use the individual files if you need something more
1221		exotic.
1222
1223- Watchdog:
1224		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1225		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1226		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1227		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1228		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1229		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
1230		available, then no further board specific code should
1231		be needed to use it.
1232
1233		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1234		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1235		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1236		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1237
1238		CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT
1239		specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds.
1240
1241- U-Boot Version:
1242		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1243		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1244		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1245		version as printed by the "version" command.
1246		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1247		next reset.
1248
1249- Real-Time Clock:
1250
1251		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1252		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1253		following options:
1254
1255		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1256		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1257		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1258		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1259		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1260		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1261		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1262		CONFIG_RTC_DS1339	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
1263		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1264		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1265		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1266		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1267		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
1268					  RV3029 RTC.
1269
1270		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1271		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1272
1273- GPIO Support:
1274		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1275
1276		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1277		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1278		pins supported by a particular chip.
1279
1280		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1281		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1282
1283- I/O tracing:
1284		When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
1285		accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
1286		to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
1287		useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
1288		the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
1289		change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
1290		add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
1291		to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
1292
1293		Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
1294		Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
1295		still continue to operate.
1296
1297			iotrace is enabled
1298			Start:  10000000	(buffer start address)
1299			Size:   00010000	(buffer size)
1300			Offset: 00000120	(current buffer offset)
1301			Output: 10000120	(start + offset)
1302			Count:  00000018	(number of trace records)
1303			CRC32:  9526fb66	(CRC32 of all trace records)
1304
1305- Timestamp Support:
1306
1307		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1308		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
1309		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1310		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1311
1312- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1313		Zero or more of the following:
1314		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
1315		CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION   MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1316				       Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1317		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1318		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the

1320				       disk/part_efi.c
1321		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
1322
1323		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1324		CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1325		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1326
1327- IDE Reset method:
1328		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1329		board configurations files but used nowhere!
1330
1331		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1332		be performed by calling the function
1333			ide_set_reset(int reset)
1334		which has to be defined in a board specific file
1335
1336- ATAPI Support:
1337		CONFIG_ATAPI
1338
1339		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1340
1341- LBA48 Support
1342		CONFIG_LBA48
1343
1344		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1345		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1346		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1347		support disks up to 2.1TB.
1348
1349		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1350			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1351			Default is 32bit.
1352
1353- SCSI Support:
1354		At the moment only there is only support for the
1355		SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
1356		CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
1357
1358		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1359		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1360		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1361		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1362		devices.
1363		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1364
1365		The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
1366		SCSI devices found during the last scan.

1524		provides monitor access to authorized functions.
1525
1526		CONFIG_TPM
1527		Define this to enable the TPM support library which provides
1528		functional interfaces to some TPM commands.
1529		Requires support for a TPM device.
1530
1531		CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS
1532		Define this to enable authorized functions in the TPM library.
1533		Requires CONFIG_TPM and CONFIG_SHA1.
1534
1535- USB Support:
1536		At the moment only the UHCI host controller is
1537		supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define
1538		CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it.
1539		define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard
1540		and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB
1541		storage devices.
1542		Note:
1543		Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
1544		(TEAC FD-05PUB).
1545		MPC5200 USB requires additional defines:
1546			CONFIG_USB_CLOCK
1547				for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb
1548			CONFIG_PSC3_USB
1549				for USB on PSC3
1550			CONFIG_USB_CONFIG
1551				for differential drivers: 0x00001000
1552				for single ended drivers: 0x00005000
1553				for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100
1554				for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100
1555			CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL
1556				May be defined to allow interrupt polling
1557				instead of using asynchronous interrupts
1558
1559		CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
1560		txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
1561
1562		CONFIG_USB_DWC2_REG_ADDR the physical CPU address of the DWC2
1563		HW module registers.
1564
1565- USB Device:
1566		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1567		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1568		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1569		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1570		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1571		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1572		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1573		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1574		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1575		a Linux host by
1576		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1577		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1578		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1579		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1580
1581			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1582			Define this to build a UDC device
1583
1584			CONFIG_USB_TTY
1585			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1586			talk to the UDC device
1587
1588			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1589			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1590			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1591			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1592			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1593			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1594			speed.
1595
1596			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1597			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1598			be set to usbtty.
1599
1600			mpc8xx:
1601				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH
1602				Derive USB clock from external clock "blah"
1603				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02
1604
1605				CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH
1606				Derive USB clock from brgclk
1607				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
1608
1609		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1610		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1611		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1612		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1613		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1614		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1615
1616			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1617			Define this string as the name of your company for
1618			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1619
1620			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1621			Define this string as the name of your product
1622			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1623
1624			CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1625			Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1626			Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1627			to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1628			- CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1629
1630			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1631			Define this as the unique Product ID
1632			for your device
1633			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1634
1635- ULPI Layer Support:
1636		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1637		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1638		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1639		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1640		viewport is supported.
1641		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1642		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1643		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1644		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1645		the appropriate value in Hz.
1646
1647- MMC Support:
1648		The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1649		enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1650		accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1651		to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1652		enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1653		the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1654
1655		CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1656		Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1657
1658			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
1659			Define the base address of MMCIF registers
1660
1661			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK
1662			Define the clock frequency for MMCIF
1663
1664		CONFIG_GENERIC_MMC
1665		Enable the generic MMC driver
1666
1667		CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_BOOT
1668		Enable some additional features of the eMMC boot partitions.
1669
1670		CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_RPMB
1671		Enable the commands for reading, writing and programming the
1672		key for the Replay Protection Memory Block partition in eMMC.
1673
1674- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support:
1675		CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION
1676		This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1677
1678		CONFIG_CMD_DFU
1679		This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have
1680		U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB.  This command
1681		requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1682		set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1683
1684		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1685		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1686
1687		CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1688		This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1689
1690		CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1691		This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1692		Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1693		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1694		one that would help mostly the developer.
1695
1696		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1697		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1698		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1699		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1700		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1701
1702		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1703		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1704		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1705		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1706		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1707		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1708
1709		DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1710		Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1711		host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1712		a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1713
1714		DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1715		Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1716		entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1717		sending again an USB request to the device.
1718
1719- USB Device Android Fastboot support:
1720		CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT
1721		This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android
1722		fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB
1723		protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control
1724		used on Android devices.
1725		See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information.
1726
1727		CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE
1728		This enables support for booting images which use the Android
1729		image format header.
1730
1731		CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR
1732		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1733		downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for
1734		downloaded images.
1735
1736		CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE
1737		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1738		downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a
1739		platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot.
1740
1741		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH
1742		The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing
1743		the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define
1744		this to enable the "fastboot flash" command.
1745
1746		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV
1747		The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information
1748		regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to
1749		the eMMC device that fastboot should use to store the image.
1750
1751		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_GPT_NAME
1752		The fastboot "flash" command supports writing the downloaded
1753		image to the Protective MBR and the Primary GUID Partition
1754		Table. (Additionally, this downloaded image is post-processed
1755		to generate and write the Backup GUID Partition Table.)
1756		This occurs when the specified "partition name" on the
1757		"fastboot flash" command line matches this value.
1758		Default is GPT_ENTRY_NAME (currently "gpt") if undefined.
1759
1760- Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1761		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
1762		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
1763		Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1764
1765		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1766		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1767		Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1768
1769		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
1770		Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1771		function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1772
1773		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1774		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1775		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1776		have not defined a custom partition
1777
1778- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1779		CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1780
1781		Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1782		file in FAT formatted partition.
1783
1784		This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1785		user to write files to FAT.
1786
1787CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1788		CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1789
1790		Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1791		filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
1792		and cbfsload.
1793
1794- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size:
1795		CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE
1796
1797		Define the max cluster size for fat operations else
1798		a default value of 65536 will be defined.
1799
1800- Keyboard Support:
1801		CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
1802
1803		Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
1804		support
1805
1806		CONFIG_I8042_KBD
1807		Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
1808		GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
1809		Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
1810		for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
1811
1812		CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB
1813		Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface.
1814		This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller
1815		which provides key scans on request.
1816
1817- Video support:
1818		CONFIG_VIDEO
1819
1820		Define this to enable video support (for output to
1821		video).
1822
1823		CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
1824
1825		Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
1826
1827		CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1828		Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1829		video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1830		(1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1831		assumed.
1832
1833		For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1834		selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1835		are possible:
1836		- "videomode=num"   'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
1837		Following standard modes are supported	(* is default):
1838
1839		      Colors	640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
1840		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1841		      8 bits |	0x301*	0x303	 0x305	  0x161	    0x307
1842		     15 bits |	0x310	0x313	 0x316	  0x162	    0x319
1843		     16 bits |	0x311	0x314	 0x317	  0x163	    0x31A
1844		     24 bits |	0x312	0x315	 0x318	    ?	    0x31B
1845		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1846		(i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1847
1848		- "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1849		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1850
1851
1852		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1853		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1854		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1855		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1856
1857		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1858		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1859		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1860		support, and should also define these other macros:
1861
1862			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1863			CONFIG_VIDEO
1864			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1865			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1866			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1867			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1868			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1869			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1870
1871		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1872		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1873		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1874		description of this variable.
1875
1876
1877- Keyboard Support:
1878		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1879
1880		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1881		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1882		defined in your board-specific files.
1883		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1884
1885- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1886
1887		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1888		display); also select one of the supported displays
1889		by defining one of these:
1890
1891		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1892
1893			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1894
1895		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1896
1897			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1898
1899		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1900
1901			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1902			Active, color, single scan.
1903
1904		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1905
1906			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1907			Active, color, single scan.
1908
1909		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1910
1911			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1912			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1913
1914		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1915
1916			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1917			Active, color, single scan.
1918
1919		CONFIG_HLD1045
1920
1921			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1922			Active, color, single scan.
1923
1924		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1925
1926			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1927			or
1928			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1929			or
1930			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1931
1932			320x240. Black & white.
1933
1934		Normally display is black on white background; define
1935		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1936
1937		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1938
1939		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (typically 4KB). If this is
1940		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1941		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1942		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1943		a per-section basis.
1944
1945		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1946
1947		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1948		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1949		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1950		is slow.
1951
1952		CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION
1953
1954		Sometimes, for example if the display is mounted in portrait
1955		mode or even if it's mounted landscape but rotated by 180degree,
1956		we need to rotate our content of the display relative to the
1957		framebuffer, so that user can read the messages which are
1958		printed out.
1959		Once CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is defined, the lcd_console will be
1960		initialized with a given rotation from "vl_rot" out of
1961		"vidinfo_t" which is provided by the board specific code.
1962		The value for vl_rot is coded as following (matching to
1963		fbcon=rotate:<n> linux-kernel commandline):
1964		0 = no rotation respectively 0 degree
1965		1 = 90 degree rotation
1966		2 = 180 degree rotation
1967		3 = 270 degree rotation
1968
1969		If CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is not defined, the console will be
1970		initialized with 0degree rotation.
1971
1972		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1973
1974		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1975
1976		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1977
1978		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1979		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1980
1981- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1982
1983		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1984		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1985		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1986		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1987		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1988		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1989		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1990		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1991
1992		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1993
1994		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1995		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1996		(see README.displaying-bmps).
1997		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1998		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1999		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
2000		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
2001		there is no need to set this option.
2002
2003		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
2004
2005		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
2006		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
2007		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
2008		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
2009		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
2010		specify 'm' for centering the image.
2011
2012		Example:
2013		setenv splashpos m,m
2014			=> image at center of screen
2015
2016		setenv splashpos 30,20
2017			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
2018
2019		setenv splashpos -10,m
2020			=> vertically centered image
2021			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
2022
2023- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
2024
2025		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
2026		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
2027		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
2028
2029- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
2030
2031		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
2032		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
2033		bmp command.
2034
2035- Do compressing for memory range:
2036		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
2037
2038		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
2039		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
2040
2041- Compression support:
2042		CONFIG_GZIP
2043
2044		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
2045
2046		CONFIG_BZIP2
2047
2048		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
2049		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
2050		compressed images are supported.
2051
2052		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
2053		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
2054		be at least 4MB.
2055
2056		CONFIG_LZMA
2057
2058		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
2059		images is included.
2060
2061		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
2062		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
2063		formula:
2064
2065			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
2066
2067		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
2068		and Literal pos bits.
2069
2070		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
2071		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
2072		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
2073		a very small buffer.
2074
2075		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
2076		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
2077		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
2078
2079		CONFIG_LZO
2080
2081		If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
2082		is included.
2083
2084- MII/PHY support:
2085		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
2086
2087		The address of PHY on MII bus.
2088
2089		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
2090
2091		The clock frequency of the MII bus
2092
2093		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
2094
2095		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
2096		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
2097
2098		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
2099
2100		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
2101		reset before any MII register access is possible.
2102		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
2103		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
2104
2105		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
2106
2107		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
2108		command issued before MII status register can be read
2109
2110- Ethernet address:
2111		CONFIG_ETHADDR
2112		CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
2113		CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
2114		CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
2115		CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
2116		CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
2117
2118		Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
2119		for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
2120		is not determined automatically.
2121
2122- IP address:
2123		CONFIG_IPADDR
2124
2125		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
2126		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
2127		determined through e.g. bootp.
2128		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
2129
2130- Server IP address:
2131		CONFIG_SERVERIP
2132
2133		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
2134		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
2135		(Environment variable "serverip")
2136
2137		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
2138
2139		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
2140		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
2141
2142- Gateway IP address:
2143		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
2144
2145		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
2146		default router where packets to other networks are
2147		sent to.
2148		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
2149
2150- Subnet mask:
2151		CONFIG_NETMASK
2152
2153		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
2154		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
2155		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
2156		forwarded through a router.
2157		(Environment variable "netmask")
2158
2159- Multicast TFTP Mode:
2160		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
2161
2162		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
2163		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
2164		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
2165		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
2166		multicast group.
2167
2168- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
2169		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
2170
2171		If you have many targets in a network that try to
2172		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
2173		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
2174		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
2175		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
2176		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
2177		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
2178		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
2179		following delays are inserted then:
2180
2181		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
2182		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
2183		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
2184		4th and following
2185		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
2186
2187		CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE
2188
2189		BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The
2190		server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and
2191		U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of
2192		an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses
2193		aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP
2194		ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to
2195		respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it
2196		takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that
2197		time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order
2198		to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these
2199		retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of
2200		IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this
2201		cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding
2202		requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers
2203		from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency.
2204
2205- DHCP Advanced Options:
2206		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
2207		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
2208
2209		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
2210		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
2211		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
2212		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
2213		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
2214		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
2215		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2216		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
2217		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
2218		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
2219		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
2220		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
2221		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
2222
2223		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
2224		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
2225
2226		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
2227		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
2228		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
2229		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
2230		is not available.
2231
2232		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
2233		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
2234		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
2235		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
2236		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
2237		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
2238		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2239		is defined.
2240
2241		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
2242		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
2243		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
2244		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
2245		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
2246		option 12 to the DHCP server.
2247
2248		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
2249
2250		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
2251		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
2252		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
2253		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
2254		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
2255		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
2256		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
2257		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
2258		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
2259		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
2260		this delay.
2261
2262 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
2263		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
2264		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
2265		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
2266		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
2267
2268		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
2269
2270 - CDP Options:
2271		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
2272
2273		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
2274
2275		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
2276
2277		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
2278		of the device.
2279
2280		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
2281
2282		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
2283		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
2284		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
2285
2286		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
2287
2288		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
2289		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
2290
2291		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
2292
2293		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
2294
2295		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
2296
2297		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
2298
2299		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
2300
2301		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
2302
2303		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
2304
2305		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
2306		device in .1 of milliwatts.
2307
2308		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
2309
2310		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
2311
2312- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2313
2314		Several configurations allow to display the current
2315		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2316		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2317		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2318		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2319		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2320		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2321		feature in U-Boot.
2322
2323		Additional options:
2324
2325		CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2326		The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2327		In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2328		status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2329		to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2330
2331		CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2332		Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2333		case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2334		GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2335		In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2336		with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2337
2338- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2339
2340		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
2341		on those systems that support this (optional)
2342		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2343
2344- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
2345
2346		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
2347		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
2348		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
2349		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
2350		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
2351		interface.
2352

2373		    bus.
2374		  - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define
2375		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset

2477		Hold the number of i2c buses you want to use. If you
2478		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2479		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2480		omit this define.
2481
2482		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2483		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2484		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2485		omit this define.
2486
2487		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2488		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2489		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2490		define.
2491
2492		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2493		hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if
2494		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2495		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2496		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2497
2498		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2499					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2500					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2501					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2502					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2503					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2504					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2505					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \
2506					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2507					}
2508
2509		which defines
2510			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
2511			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
2512			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2
2513			bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3
2514			bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4
2515			bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5
2516			bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux
2517			bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1
2518			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2519
2520		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2521
2522- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2523
2524		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2525		provides the following compelling advantages:
2526
2527		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2528		- approved multibus support
2529		- better i2c mux support
2530
2531		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2532
2533		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2534		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2535		for the selected CPU.
2536
2537		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2538		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2539		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2540		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2541		command line interface.
2542
2543		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2544
2545		There are several other quantities that must also be
2546		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2547
2548		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2549		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2550		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2551		the CPU's i2c node address).
2552
2553		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2554		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2555		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2556		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2557		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2558
2559		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2560
2561		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2562		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2563		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2564		commands until the slave device responds.
2565
2566		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2567
2568		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2569		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2570		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2571
2572		I2C_INIT
2573
2574		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2575		controller or configure ports.
2576
2577		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2578
2579		I2C_PORT
2580
2581		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2582		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2583		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2584
2585		I2C_ACTIVE
2586
2587		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2588		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2589		define can be null.
2590
2591		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2592
2593		I2C_TRISTATE
2594
2595		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2596		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2597		define can be null.
2598
2599		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2600
2601		I2C_READ
2602
2603		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2604		false if it is low.
2605
2606		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2607
2608		I2C_SDA(bit)
2609
2610		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2611		is false, it clears it (low).
2612
2613		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2614			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2615			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2616
2617		I2C_SCL(bit)
2618
2619		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2620		is false, it clears it (low).
2621
2622		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2623			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2624			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2625
2626		I2C_DELAY
2627
2628		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2629		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2630		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2631		like:
2632
2633		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2634
2635		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2636
2637		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2638		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2639		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2640		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2641
2642		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2643		the generic GPIO functions.
2644
2645		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2646
2647		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2648		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2649		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2650		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2651		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2652		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2653		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2654		is run early in the boot sequence.
2655
2656		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2657
2658		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2659		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2660		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2661		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2662		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2663		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2664		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2665		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2666
2667		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2668
2669		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2670		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2671		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2672
2673		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2674
2675		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2676		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2677		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2678		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2679
2680		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2681
2682		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2683		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2684		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2685		a 1D array of device addresses
2686
2687		e.g.
2688			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2689			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2690
2691		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2692
2693			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2694			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2695
2696		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2697
2698		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2699
2700		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2701		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2702
2703		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2704
2705		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2706		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2707
2708		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2709
2710		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2711		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2712
2713		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2714
2715		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2716		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2717		specified DTT device.
2718
2719		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2720
2721		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2722		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2723		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2724		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2725		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2726		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2727		the other.
2728
2729- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2730
2731		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2732		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2733		D/As on the SACSng board)
2734
2735		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2736
2737		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2738		only SH7757 is supported.
2739
2740		CONFIG_SPI_X
2741
2742		Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2743		(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2744
2745		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2746
2747		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2748		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2749		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2750		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2751		defined, the board configuration must define several
2752		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2753		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2754
2755		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2756
2757		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2758		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2759		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2760		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2761		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2762
2763		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2764
2765		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2766		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2767
2768		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT
2769		Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed.
2770		default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100)     /* 10 ms */
2771
2772- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2773
2774		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2775
2776		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2777
2778		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2779		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2780
2781		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2782
2783		Enables support for FPGA family.
2784		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2785
2786		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2787
2788		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2789
2790		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK
2791
2792		Enable support for fpga loadmk command
2793
2794		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP
2795
2796		Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream
2797
2798		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP
2799
2800		Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream
2801		(Xilinx only)
2802
2803		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2804
2805		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2806
2807		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2808
2809		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2810		status by the configuration function. This option
2811		will require a board or device specific function to
2812		be written.
2813
2814		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2815
2816		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2817		configuration driver.
2818
2819		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2820		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2821
2822		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2823
2824		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2825		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2826		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2827		indicated a CRC error).
2828
2829		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2830
2831		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to de-assert
2832		after PROB_B has been de-asserted during a Virtex II
2833		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2834		ms.
2835
2836		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2837
2838		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to de-assert during
2839		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2840
2841		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2842
2843		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2844		200 ms.
2845
2846- Configuration Management:
2847		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET
2848
2849		Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary
2850		with a special header) as build targets. By defining
2851		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this
2852		special image will be automatically built upon calling
2853		make / MAKEALL.
2854
2855		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2856
2857		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2858		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2859
2860- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2861
2862		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2863		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2864		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2865		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2866		protects these variables from casual modification by
2867		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2868		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2869		change this behaviour:
2870
2871		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2872		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2873		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2874		these parameters.
2875
2876		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2877		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2878		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2879		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2880		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2881		read-only.]
2882
2883		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2884		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2885		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2886		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2887
2888- Protected RAM:
2889		CONFIG_PRAM
2890
2891		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2892		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2893		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2894		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2895		this default value by defining an environment
2896		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2897		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2898		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2899		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2900		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2901		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2902		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2903
2904			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2905			saveenv
2906
2907		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2908		either, which results in a memory region that will
2909		not be affected by reboots.
2910
2911		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2912		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2913		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2914		following board configurations are known to be
2915		"pRAM-clean":
2916
2917			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2918			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2919			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2920
2921- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2922		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2923		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2924		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2925		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2926		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2927		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2928
2929- Error Recovery:
2930		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2931
2932		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2933		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2934		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2935		system where you want the system to reboot
2936		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2937		useful during development since you can try to debug
2938		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2939
2940		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2941
2942		This variable defines the number of retries for
2943		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2944		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2945		default value of 5 is used.
2946
2947		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2948
2949		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2950
2951		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2952
2953		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2954		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2955		try longer timeout such as
2956		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2957
2958- Command Interpreter:
2959		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2960
2961		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2962
2963		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2964
2965		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2966		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2967		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2968
2969	Note:
2970
2971		In the current implementation, the local variables
2972		space and global environment variables space are
2973		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2974		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2975		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2976		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2977		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2978
2979		Global environment variables are those you use
2980		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2981		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2982		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2983
2984		To store commands and special characters in a
2985		variable, please use double quotation marks
2986		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2987		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2988		symbols.
2989
2990- Command Line Editing and History:
2991		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2992
2993		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2994		command line input operations
2995
2996- Default Environment:
2997		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2998
2999		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
3000		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
3001		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
3002
3003		For example, place something like this in your
3004		board's config file:
3005
3006		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
3007			"myvar1=value1\0" \
3008			"myvar2=value2\0"
3009
3010		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
3011		internal format how the environment is stored by the
3012		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
3013		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
3014		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
3015		You better know what you are doing here.
3016
3017		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
3018		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
3019		the environment like the "source" command or the
3020		boot command first.
3021
3022		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
3023
3024		Define this in order to add variables describing the
3025		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
3026		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
3027
3028		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
3029
3030		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
3031		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
3032		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
3033		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
3034		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
3035
3036		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
3037
3038		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
3039		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
3040		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
3041
3042		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
3043
3044		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
3045		initialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
3046		that so that the environment is not available until
3047		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
3048		this is instead controlled by the value of
3049		/config/load-environment.
3050
3051- DataFlash Support:
3052		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
3053
3054		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
3055		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
3056		commands cp, md...
3057
3058- Serial Flash support
3059		CONFIG_CMD_SF
3060
3061		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
3062		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
3063
3064		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
3065		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
3066		commands.
3067
3068		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
3069		to handle the common case when only a single serial
3070		flash is present on the system.
3071
3072		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
3073		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
3074		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
3075		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
3076
3077		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
3078
3079		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
3080		test ('sf test').
3081
3082		CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR		Ban/Extended Addr Reg
3083
3084		Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
3085		support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
3086
3087		CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH		Dual flash memories
3088
3089		Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
3090		memories can be connected with a given cs line.
3091		Currently Xilinx Zynq qspi supports these type of connections.
3092
3093- SystemACE Support:
3094		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
3095
3096		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
3097		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
3098		of the chip must also be defined in the
3099		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
3100
3101		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
3102		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
3103
3104		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
3105		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
3106
3107- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
3108		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
3109
3110		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
3111		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
3112		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
3113		number generator is used.
3114
3115		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
3116		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
3117		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
3118
3119		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
3120		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
3121		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
3122		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
3123		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
3124		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
3125		but sometimes that is not allowed.
3126
3127- Hashing support:
3128		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
3129
3130		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
3131		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
3132
3133		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
3134
3135		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
3136		size a little.
3137
3138		CONFIG_SHA1 - This option enables support of hashing using SHA1
3139		algorithm. The hash is calculated in software.
3140		CONFIG_SHA256 - This option enables support of hashing using
3141		SHA256 algorithm. The hash is calculated in software.
3142		CONFIG_SHA_HW_ACCEL - This option enables hardware acceleration
3143		for SHA1/SHA256 hashing.
3144		This affects the 'hash' command and also the
3145		hash_lookup_algo() function.
3146		CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL - This option enables
3147		hardware-acceleration for SHA1/SHA256 progressive hashing.
3148		Data can be streamed in a block at a time and the hashing
3149		is performed in hardware.
3150
3151		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
3152		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
3153
3154- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
3155		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
3156		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
3157		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
3158
3159		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
3160		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
3161		a boot from specific media.
3162
3163		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
3164		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
3165		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
3166		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
3167		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
3168
3169- Signing support:
3170		CONFIG_RSA
3171
3172		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
3173		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
3174
3175		The Modular Exponentiation algorithm in RSA is implemented using
3176		driver model. So CONFIG_DM needs to be enabled by default for this
3177		library to function.
3178
3179		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
3180		option. The software based modular exponentiation is built into
3181		mkimage irrespective of this option.
3182
3183- bootcount support:
3184		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
3185
3186		This enables the bootcounter support, see:
3187		http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
3188
3189		CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
3190		enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
3191		CONFIG_BLACKFIN
3192		enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
3193		CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
3194		enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
3195		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
3196		enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
3197		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
3198		enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
3199			CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
3200			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
3201						    the bootcounter.
3202			CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
3203
3204- Show boot progress:
3205		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
3206
3207		Defining this option allows to add some board-
3208		specific code (calling a user-provided function
3209		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
3210		the system's boot progress on some display (for
3211		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
3212		the following checkpoints are implemented:
3213

3367
3368- legacy image format:
3369		CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3370		enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
3371
3372		Default:
3373		enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
3374
3375		CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
3376		disable the legacy image format
3377
3378		This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
3379		enabled per default for backward compatibility.
3380
3381- FIT image support:
3382		CONFIG_FIT
3383		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
3384
3385		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3386		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3387		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3388		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3389		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3390		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3391
3392		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
3393		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
3394		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. If
3395		CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL is defined, i.e support for progressive
3396		hashing is available using hardware, RSA library will use it.
3397		See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
3398
3399		WARNING: When relying on signed FIT images with required
3400		signature check the legacy image format is default
3401		disabled. If a board need legacy image format support
3402		enable this through CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3403
3404		CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256
3405		Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size.
3406		For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled
3407		with this option.
3408
3409- Standalone program support:
3410		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3411
3412		This option defines a board specific value for the
3413		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
3414		overwriting the architecture dependent default
3415		settings.
3416
3417- Frame Buffer Address:
3418		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
3419
3420		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3421		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
3422		when using a graphics controller has separate video
3423		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3424		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3425		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3426		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3427		configured panel size.
3428
3429		Please see board_init_f function.
3430
3431- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
3432		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
3433		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
3434		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
3435
3436		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
3437		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
3438
3439- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
3440		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
3441
3442		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
3443		Needed for mtdparts command support.
3444
3445		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
3446
3447		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
3448		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
3449
3450- UBI support
3451		CONFIG_CMD_UBI
3452
3453		Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3454		with the UBI flash translation layer
3455
3456		Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3457
3458		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3459
3460		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
3461		warnings and errors enabled.
3462
3463
3464		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
3465		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
3466		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
3467		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
3468		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
3469		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
3470
3471		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
3472		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
3473		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
3474		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
3475		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
3476
3477		default: 4096
3478
3479		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
3480		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
3481		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
3482		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
3483		flash), this value is ignored.
3484
3485		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
3486		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
3487		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
3488		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
3489		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
3490		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
3491
3492		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
3493		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
3494		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
3495		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
3496		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
3497		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
3498		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
3499		partition.
3500
3501		default: 20
3502
3503		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
3504		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
3505		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
3506		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
3507		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
3508		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
3509		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
3510		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
3511		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
3512		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
3513		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
3514		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
3515
3516		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
3517		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
3518		without a fastmap.
3519		default: 0
3520
3521- UBIFS support
3522		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3523
3524		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3525		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3526
3527		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3528
3529		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3530
3531		Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing.  This leaves
3532		warnings and errors enabled.
3533
3534- SPL framework
3535		CONFIG_SPL
3536		Enable building of SPL globally.
3537

3539		LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
3540
3541		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
3542		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
3543		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
3544		used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3545		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3546		must not be both defined at the same time.
3547
3548		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
3549		Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and
3550		linker lists sections), BSS excluded.
3551		When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does
3552		not exceed it.
3553
3554		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
3555		TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary.
3556
3557		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE
3558		Address to relocate to.  If unspecified, this is equal to
3559		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done).
3560
3561		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR
3562		Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary.
3563
3564		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3565		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS.
3566		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used
3567		by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3568		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3569		must not be both defined at the same time.
3570
3571		CONFIG_SPL_STACK
3572		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use
3573
3574		CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE
3575		When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has
3576		loaded does not have a signature.
3577		Defining this is useful when code which loads images
3578		in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors
3579		will be caught.
3580		An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will
3581		consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad,
3582		and thus should be skipped silently.
3583
3584		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
3585		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
3586		relocation.  If unspecified, this is equal to
3587		CONFIG_SPL_STACK.
3588
3589		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START
3590		Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL.
3591

3633		used in raw mode
3634
3635		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR
3636		Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being
3637		used in raw mode (for Falcon mode)
3638
3639		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR,
3640		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS
3641		Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument
3642		parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode
3643		(for falcon mode)
3644
3645		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION

3664		when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
3665
3666		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
3667		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
3668		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3669		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3670		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
3671
3672		CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE
3673		Avoid SPL relocation
3674
3675		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE
3676		Include nand_base.c in the SPL.  Requires
3677		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS.

3681
3682		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC
3683		Include standard software ECC in the SPL
3684
3685		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE

3687		expose the cmd_ctrl() interface.
3688
3689		CONFIG_SPL_MTD_SUPPORT

3691		environment on NAND support within SPL.
3692
3693		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY
3694		Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only
3695		if you need to save space.
3696
3697		CONFIG_SPL_MPC8XXX_INIT_DDR_SUPPORT
3698		Set for the SPL on PPC mpc8xxx targets, support for
3699		drivers/ddr/fsl/libddr.o in SPL binary.

3706		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE,
3707		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,
3708		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
3709		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
3710		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
3711		to read U-Boot
3712
3713		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT
3714		Add support NAND boot
3715
3716		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
3717		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from
3718
3719		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST
3720		Location in memory to load U-Boot to
3721
3722		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE
3723		Size of image to load
3724
3725		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
3726		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
3727
3728		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
3729		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
3730		data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms.
3731
3732		CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND
3733		Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the
3734		ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present.
3735
3736		CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT
3737		Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary
3738
3739		CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT
3740		Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary

3745		CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE
3746		Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary
3747
3748		CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT
3749		Support for lib/libgeneric.o in SPL binary
3750
3751		CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT
3752		Support for the environment operating in SPL binary
3753
3754		CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT
3755		Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary.
3756		It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by
3757		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3758
3759		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3760		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3761		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3762		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3763		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3764		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3765
3766		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3767		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3768		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3769		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3770
3771		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3772		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3773		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3774		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3775		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3776
3777- TPL framework
3778		CONFIG_TPL
3779		Enable building of TPL globally.
3780
3781		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
3782		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
3783		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3784		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3785		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3786		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3787
3788Modem Support:
3789--------------
3790
3791[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3792
3793- Modem support enable:
3794		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3795
3796- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3797		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3798
3799- Modem debug support:
3800		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3801
3802		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3803		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3804
3805- Interrupt support (PPC):
3806
3807		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3808		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3809		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3810		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3811		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3812		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3813		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3814		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3815		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3816		general timer_interrupt().
3817
3818- General:
3819
3820		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3821		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3822		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3823		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3824		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3825		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3826		initialization.
3827
3828		If there are no modem init strings in the
3829		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3830		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3831		suppressed, though.
3832
3833		See also: doc/README.Modem
3834
3835Board initialization settings:
3836------------------------------
3837
3838During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3839to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3840before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3841following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3842architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3843typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3844
3845- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3846- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3847- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3848- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3849
3850Configuration Settings:
3851-----------------------
3852
3853- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
3854		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
3855
3856- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3857		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3858
3859- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3860		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3861
3862- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3863		prompt for user input.
3864
3865- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3866
3867- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3868
3869- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3870
3871- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3872		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3873		booted
3874
3875- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3876		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3877
3878- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3879		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3880
3881- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3882		If the board specific function
3883			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3884		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3885		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3886
3887- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3888		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3889
3890- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3891		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3892
3893- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3894		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3895		simple memory test.
3896
3897- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3898		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3899
3900- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3901		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3902		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3903
3904- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3905		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3906		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3907		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3908		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3909		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3910		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3911		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3912		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3913		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3914
3915		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3916		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3917		be touched.
3918
3919		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3920		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3921		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3922		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3923		problems.
3924
3925- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3926		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3927
3928- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3929		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3930
3931- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3932		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3933		Cogent motherboard)
3934
3935- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3936		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3937
3938- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3939		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3940		make config files to be same as the text base address
3941		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3942		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3943
3944- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3945		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3946		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3947		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3948		flash sector.
3949
3950- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3951		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3952
3953- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3954		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3955		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3956		will become available before relocation. The address is just
3957		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3958		space.
3959
3960		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3961		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3962		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3963		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when
3964		U-Boot relocates itself.
3965
3966		Pre-relocation malloc() is only supported on ARM and sandbox
3967		at present but is fairly easy to enable for other archs.
3968
3969- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE
3970		Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those
3971		boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is
3972		enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START).
3973
3974- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY:
3975		Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be
3976		typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped
3977		uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would
3978		otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For
3979		some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the
3980		cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed
3981		are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding
3982		cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e.
3983		if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the
3984		size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of
3985		one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has
3986		written to another region in the same cache-line. This can
3987		happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for
3988		buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g.
3989		16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes).
3990
3991		Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present.
3992
3993- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3994		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3995		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3996		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3997		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3998
3999- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
4000		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
4001		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
4002		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
4003		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
4004		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
4005		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
4006		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
4007		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
4008		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
4009		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
4010
4011- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
4012		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
4013		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
4014		is enabled.
4015
4016- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
4017		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
4018		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
4019
4020- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
4021		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
4022		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
4023
4024- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
4025		Max number of Flash memory banks
4026
4027- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
4028		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
4029
4030- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
4031		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
4032
4033- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
4034		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
4035
4036- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
4037		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
4038
4039- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
4040		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
4041
4042- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
4043		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
4044		instead of U-Boot software protection.
4045
4046- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
4047
4048		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
4049		without this option such a download has to be
4050		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
4051		copy from RAM to flash.
4052
4053		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
4054		you can check if the download worked before you erase
4055		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
4056		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
4057		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
4058
4059- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
4060		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
4061		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
4062
4063- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
4064		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
4065		in the drivers directory
4066
4067- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
4068		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
4069		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
4070		to the MTD layer.
4071
4072- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
4073		Use buffered writes to flash.
4074
4075- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
4076		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
4077		write commands.
4078
4079- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
4080		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
4081		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
4082		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
4083		optionally available.
4084
4085- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
4086		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
4087		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
4088		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
4089
4090- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
4091		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
4092		against the source after the write operation. An error message
4093		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
4094		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
4095		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
4096		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
4097		this option if you really know what you are doing.
4098
4099- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
4100		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
4101		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
4102		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
4103		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
4104		on high Ethernet traffic.
4105		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
4106
4107- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
4108
4109	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
4110	internally to store the environment settings. The default
4111	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
4112	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
4113	lib/hashtable.c for details.
4114
4115- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4116- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4117	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
4118	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
4119	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
4120	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
4121
4122	The format of the list is:
4123		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
4124		access_attribute = [a|r|o|c]
4125		attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute]
4126		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
4127		list = entry[,list]
4128
4129	The type attributes are:
4130		s - String (default)
4131		d - Decimal
4132		x - Hexadecimal
4133		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
4134		i - IP address
4135		m - MAC address
4136
4137	The access attributes are:
4138		a - Any (default)
4139		r - Read-only
4140		o - Write-once
4141		c - Change-default
4142
4143	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4144		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
4145		environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4146
4147	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4148		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
4149		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
4150		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
4151		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
4152		".flags" variable.
4153
4154- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
4155	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
4156	access flags.
4157
4158- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
4159	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
4160	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
4161	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
4162	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
4163	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
4164	must support it (i.e. must select HAVE_GENERIC_BOARD in arch/Kconfig).
4165	If you find problems enabling this option on your board please report
4166	the problem and send patches!
4167
4168- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
4169	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
4170	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
4171	the value can be calculated on a given board.
4172
4173- CONFIG_USE_STDINT
4174	If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this
4175	option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when
4176	building U-Boot to enable this.
4177
4178The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
4179of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
4180following configurations:
4181
4182- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
4183
4184	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
4185	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
4186
4187- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
4188
4189	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
4190
4191	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
4192	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
4193	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
4194	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
4195	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
4196	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
4197	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
4198	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
4199	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
4200	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
4201	   between U-Boot and the environment.
4202
4203	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4204
4205	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
4206	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
4207	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
4208	   for this sector is given here.
4209
4210	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
4211
4212	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4213
4214	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
4215	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
4216	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
4217
4218	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4219
4220	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
4221
4222
4223	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
4224	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
4225	   the environment.
4226
4227	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4228
4229	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
4230	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
4231	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
4232	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
4233
4234	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
4235	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
4236	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
4237	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
4238	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
4239	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
4240	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
4241	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
4242	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
4243
4244	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
4245	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
4246
4247	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
4248	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
4249	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
4250	   a "saveenv" operation.
4251
4252BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
4253source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
4254accordingly!
4255
4256
4257- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
4258
4259	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
4260	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
4261	environment.
4262
4263	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4264	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4265
4266	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
4267	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
4268	  can just be read and written to, without any special
4269	  provision.
4270
4271BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
4272in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the
4273console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
4274U-Boot will hang.
4275
4276Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
4277environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
4278keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
4279to save the current settings.
4280
4281
4282- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
4283
4284	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
4285	device and a driver for it.
4286
4287	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4288	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4289
4290	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4291	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
4292
4293	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
4294	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
4295	  The default address is zero.
4296
4297	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_BUS:
4298	  If defined, specified the i2c bus of the EEPROM device.
4299
4300	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
4301	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
4302	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
4303	  would require six bits.
4304
4305	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
4306	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
4307	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
4308
4309	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
4310	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
4311	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
4312
4313	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
4314	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
4315	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
4316	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
4317	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
4318	  byte chips.
4319
4320	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
4321	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
4322	  in the chip address.
4323
4324	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
4325	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
4326
4327	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
4328	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
4329	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
4330
4331	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
4332	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
4333	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
4334	  EEPROM. For example:
4335
4336	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
4337
4338	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
4339	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
4340
4341- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
4342
4343	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
4344	want to use for the environment.
4345
4346	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4347	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4348	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4349
4350	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
4351	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
4352	  at the specified address.
4353
4354- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH:
4355
4356	Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you
4357	want to use for the environment.
4358
4359	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4360	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4361
4362	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4363	  environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4364	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4365
4366	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4367
4368	  Define the SPI flash's sector size.
4369
4370	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4371
4372	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4373	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4374	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4375	  during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4376	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4377
4378	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional):
4379	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional):
4380
4381	  Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0.
4382
4383	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional):
4384
4385	  Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz.
4386
4387	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional):
4388
4389	  Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3.
4390
4391- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
4392
4393	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
4394	want to use for the local device's environment.
4395
4396	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4397	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4398
4399	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
4400	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
4401	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
4402	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
4403
4404BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
4405"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
4406environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
4407but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
4408
4409- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
4410
4411	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
4412	for the environment.
4413
4414	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4415	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4416
4417	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4418	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4419	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4420
4421	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4422
4423	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4424	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4425	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4426	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4427	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4428
4429	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
4430
4431	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
4432	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
4433	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
4434	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
4435	  the range to be avoided.
4436
4437	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
4438
4439	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
4440	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
4441	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
4442	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
4443	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
4444
4445- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
4446
4447	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
4448	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
4449	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4450
4451- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
4452
4453	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
4454	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
4455	accesses, which is important on NAND.
4456
4457	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
4458
4459	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
4460
4461	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
4462
4463	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
4464	  environment in.
4465
4466	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
4467
4468	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
4469	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
4470	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
4471
4472	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
4473	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
4474
4475	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
4476	  when storing the env in UBI.
4477
4478- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT:
4479       Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment.
4480
4481       - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE:
4482
4483         Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.
4484
4485       - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
4486
4487         Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
4488         be as following:
4489
4490           "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1)
4491               - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no
4492                        partition table.
4493               - "D:0": device D.
4494               - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition
4495                              table, or the whole device D if has no partition
4496                              table.
4497               - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
4498                           If none, first valid partition in device D. If no
4499                           partition table then means device D.
4500
4501       - FAT_ENV_FILE:
4502
4503         It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the
4504         environment.
4505
4506       - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE:
4507         This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the environment file.
4508
4509- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
4510
4511	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
4512	environment.
4513
4514	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4515
4516	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4517
4518	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4519
4520	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4521	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4522	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4523
4524	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4525	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4526
4527	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4528	  area within the specified MMC device.
4529
4530	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4531	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4532	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4533	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4534	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4535	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4536	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4537
4538	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4539	  MMC sector boundary.
4540
4541	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4542
4543	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4544	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4545	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4546	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4547
4548	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4549	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4550
4551	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4552	  an MMC sector boundary.
4553
4554	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4555
4556	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4557	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4558	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4559
4560- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
4561
4562	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4563	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4564	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4565	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4566	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4567	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4568	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4569
4570Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
4571has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
4572created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
4573until then to read environment variables.
4574
4575The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4576is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4577with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4578necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4579"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4580have any device yet where we could complain.]
4581
4582Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4583the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
4584use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
4585
4586- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
4587		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
4588
4589		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
4590		      also needs to be defined.
4591
4592- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
4593		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
4594
4595- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
4596		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
4597		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
4598		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
4599		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
4600		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
4601
4602- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
4603		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
4604		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
4605		to do this.
4606
4607- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
4608		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
4609		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
4610		present.
4611
4612- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
4613		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
4614		build system checks that the actual size does not
4615		exceed it.
4616
4617Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
4618---------------------------------------------------
4619
4620- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
4621		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
4622
4623- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
4624		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
4625
4626		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4627		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
4628		the IMMR register after a reset.
4629
4630- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4631		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4632		PowerPC SOCs.
4633
4634- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4635		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4636		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4637
4638		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4639		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4640
4641- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4642		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
4643		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
4644		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
4645		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
4646		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
4647		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4648
4649		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4650			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4651
4652- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
4653		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
4654		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
4655		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4656		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4657
4658- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4659		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
4660		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4661		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4662
4663- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4664		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4665		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
4666
4667- Floppy Disk Support:
4668		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
4669
4670		the default drive number (default value 0)
4671
4672		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4673
4674		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4675		(default value 1)
4676
4677		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4678
4679		defines the offset of register from address. It
4680		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4681		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4682
4683		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4684		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4685		default value.
4686
4687		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4688		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4689		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4690		source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent
4691		initializations.
4692
4693- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4694		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4695		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4696		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4697		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4698		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4699		is required.
4700
4701- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4702		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4703		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4704
4705- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4706
4707		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4708		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4709		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4710		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4711		will become available only after programming the
4712		memory controller and running certain initialization
4713		sequences.
4714
4715		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4716		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4717		- MPC824X: data cache
4718		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4719
4720- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4721
4722		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4723		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4724		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4725		data is located at the end of the available space
4726		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4727		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4728		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4729		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4730
4731	Note:
4732		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4733		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4734		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4735		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4736		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

4772		Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing)
4773
4774- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4775		enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4776		define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2]
4777
4778- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:

4788		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4789		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4790
4791- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4792		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4793		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4794		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.

4796
4797- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4798  CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4806
4807- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4808		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4809		required.
4810
4811- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4812		Only scan through and get the devices on the buses.
4813		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4814		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4815		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4816		by coreboot or similar.

4878- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_BIST
4879		Enable built-in memory test for Freescale DDR controllers.
4880
4881- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4882		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4883		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4884
4885- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4886		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4887
4888- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4889		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds

4891			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4892		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4893
4894		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4895
4896- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4897		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4898		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4899
4900- CONFIG_RMII
4901		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4902		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4903		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4904
4905- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4906		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4907		The syntax is:
4908
4909		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4910
4911		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4912		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4913		area should have.
4914
4915- CONFIG_LOOPW
4916		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4917		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4918
4919- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4920		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4921		"md/mw" commands.
4922		Examples:
4923
4924		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4925		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4926
4927		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4928		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4929
4930		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4931		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4932
4933- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4934		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4935		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4936		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4937		relocate itself into RAM.
4938
4939		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4940		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4941		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4942		these initializations itself.
4943
4944- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4945		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4946		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4947		compiling a NAND SPL.
4948
4949- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4950		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4951		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4952		It is loaded by the SPL.
4953
4954- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4955		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4956		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4957		previous 4k of the .text section.
4958
4959- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4960		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4961		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4962		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4963		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4964		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4965		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4966		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4967
4968- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4969  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4970		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4971		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4972		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4973
4974- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4975		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4976		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4977
4978- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4979		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4980
4981		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4982
4983- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4984		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4985
4986- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
4987		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
4988		driver that uses this:
4989		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
4990
4991Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4992-----------------------------------
4993
4994The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4995loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4996This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4997are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4998within that device.
4999
5000- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
5001	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
5002	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
5003	is also specified.
5004
5005- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
5006	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
5007	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
5008	is also specified.
5009
5010- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
5011	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
5012	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
5013	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
5014	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
5015
5016- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
5017	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
5018	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
5019	virtual address in NOR flash.
5020
5021- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
5022	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
5023	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
5024
5025- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
5026	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
5027	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
5028
5029- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
5030	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
5031	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
5032
5033- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
5034	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
5035	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
5036	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
5037	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
5038	master's memory space.
5039
5040Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
5041---------------------------------------------------------
5042The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
5043"firmware".
5044This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
5045are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
5046within that device.
5047
5048- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
5049	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
5050
5051- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR
5052	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
5053	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro
5054	is also specified.
5055
5056- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH
5057	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
5058	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
5059	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
5060	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
5061
5062- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR
5063	Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
5064	normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
5065	virtual address in NOR flash.
5066
5067Building the Software:
5068======================
5069
5070Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
5071and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
5072all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
5073(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
5074recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
5075which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
5076
5077If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
5078have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
5079you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
5080Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
5081necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
5082
5083	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
5084	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
5085
5086Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
5087      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
5088      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
5089      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
5090
5091       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
5092
5093      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
5094      be executed on computers running Windows.
5095
5096U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
5097sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
5098is done by typing:
5099
5100	make NAME_defconfig
5101
5102where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
5103rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
5104
5105Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
5106      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
5107      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
5108      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
5109      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
5110
5111      make TQM823L_defconfig
5112	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
5113
5114      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
5115	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
5116
5117      etc.
5118
5119
5120Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
5121images ready for download to / installation on your system:
5122
5123- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
5124- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
5125- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
5126
5127By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
5128in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
5129this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
5130
51311. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
5132
5133	make O=/tmp/build distclean
5134	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
5135	make O=/tmp/build all
5136
51372. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location:
5138
5139	export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build
5140	make distclean
5141	make NAME_defconfig
5142	make all
5143
5144Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment
5145variable.
5146
5147
5148Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
5149for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
5150native "make".
5151
5152
5153If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
5154to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
5155steps:
5156
51571.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
5158    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
5159    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
51602.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
5161    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
5162    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
51633.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
5164    your board
51653.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
5166    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
51674.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
51685.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
5169    to be installed on your target system.
51706.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
5171    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
5172
5173
5174Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
5175==============================================================
5176
5177If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
5178or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
5179provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
5180the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
5181official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
5182
5183But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
5184cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
5185the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
5186just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
5187for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
5188select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
5189environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
5190you can type
5191
5192	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5193
5194or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
5195
5196	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
5197
5198When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
5199U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
5200setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
5201built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
5202<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
5203location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
5204variable. For example:
5205
5206	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
5207	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
5208	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5209
5210With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
5211log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
5212during the whole build process.

5269
5270TODO.
5271
5272For now: just type "help <command>".
5273
5274
5275Environment Variables:
5276======================
5277
5278U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
5279can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
5280
5281Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
5282"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
5283without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
5284environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
5285working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
5286environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
5287
5288Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
5289
5290List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
5291
5292  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
5293
5294  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
5295
5296  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
5297
5298  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
5299
5300  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
5301
5302  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5303		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5304		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
5305		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
5306		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
5307		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
5308		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
5309		  bootm_mapsize.
5310
5311  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
5312		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
5313		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
5314		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
5315		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
5316		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
5317		  used otherwise.
5318
5319  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5320		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5321		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
5322		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
5323		  environment variable.
5324
5325  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
5326		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
5327		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
5328
5329  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
5330		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
5331		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
5332		  load any image using TFTP
5333
5334  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
5335		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
5336		  be automatically started (by internally calling
5337		  "bootm")
5338
5339		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
5340		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
5341		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
5342		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
5343		  data.
5344
5345  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
5346		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
5347		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
5348		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
5349		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
5350		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
5351		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
5352		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
5353		  access it during the boot procedure.
5354
5355		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
5356		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
5357		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
5358		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
5359		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
5360		  must be accessible by the kernel.
5361
5362  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
5363		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
5364		  defined.
5365
5366  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
5367		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
5368		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
5369		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
5370		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
5371
5372  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
5373		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
5374		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
5375		  is usually what you want since it allows for
5376		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
5377		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
5378		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
5379		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
5380		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
5381		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
5382		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
5383
5384		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
5385		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
5386		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
5387		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
5388		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
5389		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
5390
5391		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
5392
5393		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
5394		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
5395		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
5396		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
5397		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
5398		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
5399		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
5400
5401  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5402
5403  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
5404		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
5405
5406  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
5407
5408  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5409
5410  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
5411
5412  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
5413
5414  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
5415
5416  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
5417
5418  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
5419		  For example you can do the following
5420
5421		  => setenv ethact FEC
5422		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
5423		  => setenv ethact SCC
5424		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
5425
5426  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
5427		  available network interfaces.
5428		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
5429
5430  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
5431		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
5432		  When set to "once" the network operation will
5433		  fail when all the available network interfaces
5434		  are tried once without success.
5435		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
5436		  themselves.
5437
5438  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
5439
5440  silent_linux  - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by
5441		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
5442		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
5443		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
5444		  is silent.
5445
5446  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
5447		  UDP source port.
5448
5449  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
5450		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
5451
5452  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
5453		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
5454
5455  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
5456		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
5457		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
5458		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
5459		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
5460		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
5461		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
5462
5463  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
5464		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
5465		  VLAN tagged frames.
5466
5467The following image location variables contain the location of images
5468used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
5469not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
5470variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
5471server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
5472loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
5473flash or offset in NAND flash.
5474
5475*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
5476boards currently use other variables for these purposes, and some
5477boards use these variables for other purposes.
5478
5479Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
5480-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
5481u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
5482Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
5483device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
5484ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
5485
5486The following environment variables may be used and automatically
5487updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
5488depending the information provided by your boot server:
5489
5490  bootfile	- see above
5491  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
5492  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5493  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5494  hostname	- Target hostname
5495  ipaddr	- see above
5496  netmask	- Subnet Mask
5497  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5498  serverip	- see above
5499
5500
5501There are two special Environment Variables:
5502
5503  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
5504		  as type string and/or serial number
5505  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
5506
5507These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5508the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5509once they have been set once.
5510
5511
5512Further special Environment Variables:
5513
5514  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5515		  with the "version" command. This variable is
5516		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
5517
5518
5519Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
5520only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
5521
5522
5523Callback functions for environment variables:
5524---------------------------------------------
5525
5526For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5527when their values are changed.  This functionality allows functions to
5528be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
5529deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5530effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5531
5532The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5533U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5534
5535These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
5536static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5537in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5538associations.  The list must be in the following format:
5539
5540	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5541	list = entry[,list]
5542
5543If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5544Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5545
5546Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5547with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
5548override any association in the static list. You can define
5549CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5550".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5551
5552
5553Command Line Parsing:
5554=====================
5555
5556There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5557the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5558
5559Old, simple command line parser:
5560--------------------------------
5561
5562- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5563- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5564- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5565- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5566  for example:
5567	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5568- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5569	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5570
5571Hush shell:
5572-----------
5573
5574- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5575  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5576  until...do...done, ...
5577- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5578  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5579  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5580  command
5581
5582General rules:
5583--------------
5584
5585(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5586    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5587    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5588    executed anyway.
5589
5590(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5591    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5592    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5593    variables are not executed.
5594
5595Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5596=======================================
5597
5598Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5599such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5600"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5601
5602Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5603MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5604"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5605
5606If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5607in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5608ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5609variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5610
5611o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5612  environment, the SROM's address is used.
5613
5614o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5615  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5616  used.
5617
5618o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5619  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5620
5621o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5622  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5623  warning is printed.
5624
5625o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5626  is raised.
5627
5628If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5629will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
5630may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5631The naming convention is as follows:
5632"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5633
5634Image Formats:
5635==============
5636
5637U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5638images in two formats:
5639
5640New uImage format (FIT)
5641-----------------------
5642
5643Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5644to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5645components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5646SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5647
5648
5649Old uImage format
5650-----------------
5651
5652Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5653preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5654details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5655
5656* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5657  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5658  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5659  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5660  INTEGRITY).
5661* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5662  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5663  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5664* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5665* Load Address
5666* Entry Point
5667* Image Name
5668* Image Timestamp
5669
5670The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5671and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5672CRC32 checksums.
5673
5674
5675Linux Support:
5676==============
5677
5678Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5679easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5680U-Boot.
5681
5682U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5683special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5684"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5685instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5686serves several purposes:
5687
5688- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5689  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5690  Flash memory footprint)
5691
5692- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5693  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5694
5695- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5696  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5697  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5698  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5699  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5700  software is easier now.
5701
5702
5703Linux HOWTO:
5704============
5705
5706Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5707---------------------------------------
5708
5709U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5710configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5711(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5712Linux :-).
5713
5714But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5715
5716Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5717include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5718Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5719and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5720as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5721
5722Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
5723If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
5724is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
5725doc/driver-model.
5726
5727
5728Configuring the Linux kernel:
5729-----------------------------
5730
5731No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5732device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5733
5734
5735Building a Linux Image:
5736-----------------------
5737
5738With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5739not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5740"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5741U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5742which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5743100% compatible format.
5744
5745Example:
5746
5747	make TQM850L_defconfig
5748	make oldconfig
5749	make dep
5750	make uImage
5751
5752The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5753encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5754CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5755
5756* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5757
5758* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5759
5760	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5761				 -R .note -R .comment \
5762				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5763
5764* compress the binary image:
5765
5766	gzip -9 linux.bin
5767
5768* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5769
5770	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5771		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5772		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5773
5774
5775The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5776with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5777combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5778byte header containing information about target architecture,
5779operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5780stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5781
5782"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5783print the header information, or to build new images.
5784
5785In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5786contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5787checksum verification:
5788
5789	tools/mkimage -l image
5790	  -l ==> list image header information
5791
5792The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5793from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5794
5795	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5796		      -n name -d data_file image
5797	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5798	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5799	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5800	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5801	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5802	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5803	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5804	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5805
5806Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5807address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5808kernel version:
5809
5810- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5811- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5812
5813So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5814
5815	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5816	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5817	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5818	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5819	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5820	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5821	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5822	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5823	Load Address: 0x00000000
5824	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5825
5826To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5827
5828	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5829	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5830	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5831	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5832	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5833	Load Address: 0x00000000
5834	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5835
5836NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5837speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5838needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5839need to be uncompressed:
5840
5841	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5842	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5843	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5844	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5845	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5846	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5847	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5848	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5849	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5850	Load Address: 0x00000000
5851	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5852

5854Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5855when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5856
5857	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5858	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5859	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5860	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5861	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5862	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5863	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5864	Load Address: 0x00000000
5865	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5866
5867The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5868option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5869option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5870from the image:
5871
5872	tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file
5873	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file'
5874	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5875	  -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image'
5876
5877
5878Installing a Linux Image:
5879-------------------------
5880
5881To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5882you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5883
5884	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5885
5886The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5887image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5888address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5889specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5890command.
5891
5892Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5893TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5894
5895	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5896
5897	.......... done
5898	Erased 8 sectors
5899

5906	[file transfer complete]
5907	[connected]
5908	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5909
5910
5911You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5912this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5913corruption happened:
5914
5915	=> imi 40100000
5916

5926Boot Linux:
5927-----------
5928
5929The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5930memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5931of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5932parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5933"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5934
5935
5936	=> printenv bootargs
5937	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5938
5939	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

6058More About U-Boot Image Types:
6059------------------------------
6060
6061U-Boot supports the following image types:
6062
6063   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
6064	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
6065	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
6066	the Standalone Program.
6067   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
6068	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
6069	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
6070	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
6071	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
6072   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
6073	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
6074	being started.
6075   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
6076	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
6077	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
6078	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
6079	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
6080	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
6081
6082	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
6083	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
6084	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
6085	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
6086	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
6087	a multiple of 4 bytes).
6088
6089   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
6090	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
6091	flash memory.
6092
6093   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
6094	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
6095	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
6096	as command interpreter.
6097
6098Booting the Linux zImage:
6099-------------------------
6100
6101On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
6102using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
6103as the syntax of "bootm" command.
6104
6105Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
6106kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
6107address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
6108format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
6109
6110
6111Standalone HOWTO:
6112=================
6113
6114One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
6115run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
6116U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
6117
6118Two simple examples are included with the sources:
6119
6120"Hello World" Demo:
6121-------------------
6122
6123'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
6124application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
6125It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
6126like that:
6127
6128	=> loads
6129	## Ready for S-Record download ...
6130	~>examples/hello_world.srec
6131	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
6132	[file transfer complete]
6133	[connected]
6134	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
6135
6136	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
6137	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
6138	Hello World
6139	argc = 7
6140	argv[0] = "40004"
6141	argv[1] = "Hello"
6142	argv[2] = "World!"
6143	argv[3] = "This"
6144	argv[4] = "is"
6145	argv[5] = "a"
6146	argv[6] = "test."
6147	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
6148	Hit any key to exit ...
6149
6150	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
6151
6152Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
6153handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
6154Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
6155The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
6156character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
6157controlled by the following keys:
6158
6159	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
6160	b - enable interrupts and start timer
6161	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
6162	q - quit application
6163
6164	=> loads
6165	## Ready for S-Record download ...

6170	## Start Addr = 0x00040004

6199Minicom warning:
6200================
6201
6202Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
6203"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
6204consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
6205Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
6206especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
6207use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
6208http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
6209for help with kermit.
6210
6211
6212Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
6213configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
6214
6215	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
6216	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N

6219
6220NetBSD Notes:
6221=============
6222
6223Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
6224(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
6225
6226Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
6227NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
6228need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
6229Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
6230attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
6231missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
6232
6233	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
6234	# mkdir powerpc
6235	# ln -s powerpc machine
6236	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
6237	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
6238
6239Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
6240and U-Boot include files.
6241
6242Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
6243stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
6244proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
6245tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
6246meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
6247
6248
6249Implementation Internals:
6250=========================
6251
6252The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
6253implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
6254inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
6255hardware.
6256
6257
6258Initial Stack, Global Data:
6259---------------------------
6260
6261The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
6262starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
6263system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
6264This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
6265is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
6266at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
6267options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
6268models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
6269MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
6270locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
6271
6272	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
6273	U-Boot mailing list:
6274
6275	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
6276	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
6277	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
6278	...
6279
6280	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
6281	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
6282	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
6283	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
6284	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
6285	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
6286	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
6287	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
6288
6289	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
6290	is another option for the system designer to use as an
6291	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
6292	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
6293	board designers haven't used it for something that would
6294	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
6295	used.
6296
6297	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
6298	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
6299	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
6300	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
6301	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
6302	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
6303	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
6304	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
6305	you get the config right.

6310It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
6311code for the initialization procedures:
6312
6313* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
6314  to write it.
6315
6316* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized
6317  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
6318  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
6319
6320* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
6321  that.
6322
6323Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
6324normal global data to share information between the code. But it
6325turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
6326simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
6327functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
6328functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
6329the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
6330place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
6331reserve for this purpose.
6332
6333When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
6334relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
6335GCC's implementation.
6336
6337For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
6338	R1:	stack pointer
6339	R2:	reserved for system use
6340	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
6341	R5-R10: parameter passing
6342	R13:	small data area pointer
6343	R30:	GOT pointer
6344	R31:	frame pointer
6345
6346	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
6347	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
6348	going back and forth between asm and C)
6349
6350    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
6351
6352    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
6353    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
6354    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
6355    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
6356    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
6357    624 text + 127 data).
6358
6359On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
6360	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
6361
6362    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
6363
6364On ARM, the following registers are used:
6365
6366	R0:	function argument word/integer result
6367	R1-R3:	function argument word
6368	R9:	platform specific
6369	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
6370	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
6371	R12:	temporary workspace
6372	R13:	stack pointer
6373	R14:	link register
6374	R15:	program counter
6375
6376    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
6377
6378    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
6379
6380On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
6381	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
6382
6383    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
6384
6385    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
6386    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
6387
6388On NDS32, the following registers are used:
6389
6390	R0-R1:	argument/return
6391	R2-R5:	argument
6392	R15:	temporary register for assembler
6393	R16:	trampoline register
6394	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
6395	R29:	global pointer (GP)
6396	R30:	link register (LP)
6397	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
6398	PC:	program counter (PC)
6399
6400    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
6401
6402NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
6403or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
6404
6405Memory Management:
6406------------------
6407
6408U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
6409MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
6410
6411The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
6412controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
6413memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
6414physical memory banks.
6415
6416U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
6417TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
6418booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
6419to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
6420memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
6421configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
6422Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
6423
6424Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
6425of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
6426
6427So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
6428this:
6429
6430	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
6431	      :
6432	0x0000 1FFF
6433	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
6434	      :
6435	      :
6436
6437	      :
6438	      :
6439	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
6440	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
6441	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
6442	      :
6443	0x00FD FFFF
6444	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
6445	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
6446	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
6447	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
6448
6449
6450System Initialization:
6451----------------------
6452
6453In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
6454(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
6455configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory.
6456To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
6457To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
6458initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
6459which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
6460part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
6461the caches and the SIU.
6462
6463Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
6464preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
6465(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
6466on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
6467programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
6468simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
6469banks.
6470
6471When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
6472different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
6473bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
64740x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
6475contiguous memory starting from 0.
6476
6477Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
6478and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
6479Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
6480pages, and the final stack is set up.
6481
6482Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
6483until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
6484running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
6485new address in RAM.

6562Coding Standards:
6563-----------------
6564
6565All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6566coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6567"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6568
6569Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6570MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6571reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6572sources.
6573
6574Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6575Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6576in your code.
6577
6578Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6579- remove any trailing white space
6580- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6581- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6582- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6583- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6584
6585Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6586with a request to reformat the changes.
6587
6588
6589Submitting Patches:
6590-------------------
6591
6592Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6593establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6594may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6595
6596Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6597
6598Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6599see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6600
6601When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6602it:
6603
6604* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6605  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6606  patch actually fixes something.
6607
6608* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6609  implementation.
6610
6611* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6612
6613* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
6614
6615* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6616  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6617
6618* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6619  document these in the README file.
6620
6621* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6622  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6623  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6624  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6625  with some other mail clients.
6626
6627  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6628  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6629  GNU diff.
6630
6631  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6632  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6633  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6634  affected files).
6635
6636  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6637  and compressed attachments must not be used.
6638
6639* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6640  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6641
6642* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6643  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6644
6645
6646Notes:
6647
6648* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6649  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6650  for any of the boards.
6651
6652* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6653  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6654  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6655
6656* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6657  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6658  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6659  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6660  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6661  modification.
6662
6663* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6664  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6665  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6666  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
