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: 43 44 make CHANGELOG 45 46 47Where to get help: 48================== 49 50In case you have questions about, problems with or contributions for 51U-Boot you should send a message to the U-Boot mailing list at 52<u-boot@lists.denx.de>.

Regular releases are identified by 121names consisting of the calendar year and month of the release date. 122Additional fields (if present) indicate release candidates or bug fix 123releases in "stable" maintenance trees. 124 125Examples: 126 U-Boot v2009.11 - Release November 2009 127 U-Boot v2009.11.1 - Release 1 in version November 2009 stable tree 128 U-Boot v2010.09-rc1 - Release candiate 1 for September 2010 release 129 130 131Directory Hierarchy: 132==================== 133 134/arch Architecture specific files 135 /arm Files generic to ARM architecture 136 /cpu CPU specific files 137 /arm720t Files specific to ARM 720 CPUs 138 /arm920t Files specific to ARM 920 CPUs 139 /at91 Files specific to Atmel AT91RM9200 CPU 140 /imx Files specific to Freescale MC9328 i.MX CPUs 141 /s3c24x0 Files specific to Samsung S3C24X0 CPUs 142 /arm926ejs Files specific to ARM 926 CPUs 143 /arm1136 Files specific to ARM 1136 CPUs 144 /ixp Files specific to Intel XScale IXP CPUs 145 /pxa Files specific to Intel XScale PXA CPUs 146 /sa1100 Files specific to Intel StrongARM SA1100 CPUs 147 /lib Architecture specific library files 148 /avr32 Files generic to AVR32 architecture 149 /cpu CPU specific files 150 /lib Architecture specific library files 151 /blackfin Files generic to Analog Devices Blackfin architecture 152 /cpu CPU specific files 153 /lib Architecture specific library files 154 /m68k Files generic to m68k architecture 155 /cpu CPU specific files 156 /mcf52x2 Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF52x2 CPUs 157 /mcf5227x Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF5227x CPUs 158 /mcf532x Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF5329 CPUs 159 /mcf5445x Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF5445x CPUs 160 /mcf547x_8x Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF547x_8x CPUs 161 /lib Architecture specific library files 162 /microblaze Files generic to microblaze architecture 163 /cpu CPU specific files 164 /lib Architecture specific library files 165 /mips Files generic to MIPS architecture 166 /cpu CPU specific files 167 /mips32 Files specific to MIPS32 CPUs 168 /xburst Files specific to Ingenic XBurst CPUs 169 /lib Architecture specific library files 170 /nds32 Files generic to NDS32 architecture 171 /cpu CPU specific files 172 /n1213 Files specific to Andes Technology N1213 CPUs 173 /lib Architecture specific library files 174 /nios2 Files generic to Altera NIOS2 architecture 175 /cpu CPU specific files 176 /lib Architecture specific library files 177 /openrisc Files generic to OpenRISC architecture 178 /cpu CPU specific files 179 /lib Architecture specific library files 180 /powerpc Files generic to PowerPC architecture 181 /cpu CPU specific files 182 /74xx_7xx Files specific to Freescale MPC74xx and 7xx CPUs 183 /mpc5xx Files specific to Freescale MPC5xx CPUs 184 /mpc5xxx Files specific to Freescale MPC5xxx CPUs 185 /mpc8xx Files specific to Freescale MPC8xx CPUs 186 /mpc824x Files specific to Freescale MPC824x CPUs 187 /mpc8260 Files specific to Freescale MPC8260 CPUs 188 /mpc85xx Files specific to Freescale MPC85xx CPUs 189 /ppc4xx Files specific to AMCC PowerPC 4xx CPUs 190 /lib Architecture specific library files 191 /sh Files generic to SH architecture 192 /cpu CPU specific files 193 /sh2 Files specific to sh2 CPUs 194 /sh3 Files specific to sh3 CPUs 195 /sh4 Files specific to sh4 CPUs 196 /lib Architecture specific library files 197 /sparc Files generic to SPARC architecture 198 /cpu CPU specific files 199 /leon2 Files specific to Gaisler LEON2 SPARC CPU 200 /leon3 Files specific to Gaisler LEON3 SPARC CPU 201 /lib Architecture specific library files 202 /x86 Files generic to x86 architecture 203 /cpu CPU specific files 204 /lib Architecture specific library files 205/api Machine/arch independent API for external apps 206/board Board dependent files 207/common Misc architecture independent functions 208/disk Code for disk drive partition handling 209/doc Documentation (don't expect too much) 210/drivers Commonly used device drivers 211/dts Contains Makefile for building internal U-Boot fdt. 212/examples Example code for standalone applications, etc. 213/fs Filesystem code (cramfs, ext2, jffs2, etc.) 214/include Header Files 215/lib Files generic to all architectures 216 /libfdt Library files to support flattened device trees 217 /lzma Library files to support LZMA decompression 218 /lzo Library files to support LZO decompression 219/net Networking code 220/post Power On Self Test 221/spl Secondary Program Loader framework 222/tools Tools to build S-Record or U-Boot images, etc. 223 224Software Configuration: 225======================= 226 227Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the 228rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible. 229 230There are two classes of configuration variables: 231 232* Configuration _OPTIONS_: 233 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with 234 "CONFIG_". 235 236* Configuration _SETTINGS_: 237 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if 238 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with 239 "CONFIG_SYS_". 240 241Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even 242identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to 243do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic 244links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards 245as an example here. 246 247 248Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: 249--------------------------------------------------- 250 251For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default 252configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config". 253 254Example: For a TQM823L module type: 255 256 cd u-boot 257 make TQM823L_config 258 259For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well; 260e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent 261directory according to the instructions in cogent/README. 262 263 264Configuration Options: 265---------------------- 266 267Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all 268such information is kept in a configuration file 269"include/configs/<board_name>.h". 270 271Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in 272"include/configs/TQM823L.h". 273 274 275Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux 276kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to 277build a config tool - later. 278 279 280The following options need to be configured: 281 282- CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX. 283 284- Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS. 285 286- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined) 287 Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002 288 289- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 290 Define exactly one of 291 CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD 292--- FIXME --- not tested yet: 293 CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P, 294 CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50 295 296- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 297 Define exactly one of 298 CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102 299 300- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 301 Define one or more of 302 CONFIG_CMA302 303 304- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined) 305 Define one or more of 306 CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on 307 the LCD display every second with 308 a "rotator" |\-/|\-/ 309 310- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined) 311 CONFIG_ADSTYPE 312 Possible values are: 313 CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS - original MPC8260ADS 314 CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS - MPC8266ADS 315 CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS - PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR 316 CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS - MPC8272ADS 317 318- Marvell Family Member 319 CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable 320 multiple fs option at one time 321 for marvell soc family 322 323- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined) 324 Define exactly one of 325 CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245 326 327- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU) 328 CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if 329 get_gclk_freq() cannot work 330 e.g. if there is no 32KHz 331 reference PIT/RTC clock 332 CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK 333 or XTAL/EXTAL) 334 335- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU): 336 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN 337 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX 338 CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT 339 See doc/README.MPC866 340 341 CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK 342 343 Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead 344 of relying on the correctness of the configured 345 values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure 346 the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note 347 that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz 348 RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN) 349 350 CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE 351 352 Define this option if you want to enable the 353 ICache only when Code runs from RAM. 354 355- 85xx CPU Options: 356 CONFIG_SYS_PPC64 357 358 Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements 359 the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR 360 compliance, among other possible reasons. 361 362 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV 363 364 Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the 365 system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ 366 devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc. 367 368 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT 369 370 Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device 371 tree nodes for the given platform. 372 373 CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB 374 375 Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work 376 around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger 377 support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where 378 breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this 379 symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this 380 purpose. 381 382 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 383 384 Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set, 385 then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and 386 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set. 387 388 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV 389 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional) 390 391 Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR) 392 for which the A004510 workaround should be applied. 393 394 The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision 395 of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus 396 p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls 397 whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set. 398 399 See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about 400 this erratum. 401 402 CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND 403 Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only 404 requred during NOR boot. 405 406 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY 407 408 This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600 409 according to the A004510 workaround. 410 411 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR 412 This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is 413 connected exclusively to the DSP cores. 414 415 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR 416 This value denotes start offset of M2 memory 417 which is directly connected to the DSP core. 418 419 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR 420 This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly 421 connected to the DSP core. 422 423 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT 424 This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space. 425 426 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK 427 Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's. 428 In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply 429 clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock. 430 431- Generic CPU options: 432 CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN 433 434 Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those 435 values is arch specific. 436 437 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR 438 Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is 439 found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core 440 SoCs. 441 442 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_ADDR 443 Freescale DDR memory-mapped register base. 444 445 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_EMU 446 Specify emulator support for DDR. Some DDR features such as 447 deskew training are not available. 448 449 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN1 450 Freescale DDR1 controller. 451 452 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN2 453 Freescale DDR2 controller. 454 455 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN3 456 Freescale DDR3 controller. 457 458 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_ARM_GEN3 459 Freescale DDR3 controller for ARM-based SoCs. 460 461 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR1 462 Board config to use DDR1. It can be enabled for SoCs with 463 Freescale DDR1 or DDR2 controllers, depending on the board 464 implemetation. 465 466 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR2 467 Board config to use DDR2. It can be eanbeld for SoCs with 468 Freescale DDR2 or DDR3 controllers, depending on the board 469 implementation. 470 471 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR3 472 Board config to use DDR3. It can be enabled for SoCs with 473 Freescale DDR3 controllers. 474 475- Intel Monahans options: 476 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO 477 478 Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator 479 ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core 480 frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz. 481 482 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO 483 484 Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator 485 ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and 486 2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied 487 by this value. 488 489- MIPS CPU options: 490 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET 491 492 Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack 493 pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before 494 relocation. 495 496 CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE 497 498 Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU. 499 See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h. 500 Possible values are: 501 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA 502 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA 503 CONF_CM_UNCACHED 504 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT 505 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE 506 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW 507 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW 508 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED 509 510 CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG 511 512 Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. 513 See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S. 514 515 CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES 516 517 Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq 518 XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to 519 be swapped if a flash programmer is used. 520 521- ARM options: 522 CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH 523 524 Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not 525 clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15. 526 527 CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD 528 529 Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction 530 set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides 531 better code density. For ARM architectures that support 532 Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by 533 GCC. 534 535 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044 536 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230 537 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622 538 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472 539 540 If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early 541 during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the 542 workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection 543 exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not 544 set these options unless they apply! 545 546- CPU timer options: 547 CONFIG_SYS_HZ 548 549 The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer(). 550 get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG 551 option must be set to 1000. 552 553- Linux Kernel Interface: 554 CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ 555 556 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz 557 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux 558 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the 559 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable 560 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot 561 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the 562 Linux kernel. 563 When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of 564 "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the 565 default environment. 566 567 CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only] 568 569 When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions 570 expect it to be in bytes, others in MB. 571 Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes. 572 573 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 574 575 New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be 576 passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware 577 concepts). 578 579 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 580 * New libfdt-based support 581 * Adds the "fdt" command 582 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt 583 584 OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for 585 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 586 OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for 587 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 588 OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency. 589 OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device 590 591 boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC 592 addresses 593 594 CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP 595 596 Board code has addition modification that it wants to make 597 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel 598 599 CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU 600 601 This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot 602 param header, the default value is zero if undefined. 603 604 CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP 605 606 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. 607 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot 608 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, 609 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and 610 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where 611 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. 612 613 CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory] 614 615 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one 616 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type 617 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry 618 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/). 619 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported 620 in a single configuration file and the machine type is 621 runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting. 622 623- vxWorks boot parameters: 624 625 bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following 626 environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname. 627 It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile. 628 629 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name 630 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address 631 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server 632 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters 633 634 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS 635 636 Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret" 637 638 Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride 639 the defaults discussed just above. 640 641- Cache Configuration: 642 CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot 643 CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot 644 CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot 645 646- Cache Configuration for ARM: 647 CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache 648 controller 649 CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310 650 controller register space 651 652- Serial Ports: 653 CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL 654 655 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs. 656 657 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL 658 659 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs. 660 661 CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK 662 663 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to 664 the clock speed of the UARTs. 665 666 CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS 667 668 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board, 669 define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported) 670 port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h 671 672 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR 673 674 Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500) 675 have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set 676 this variable to initialize the extra register. 677 678 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT 679 680 On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage 681 boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this 682 variable to flush the UART at init time. 683 684 685- Console Interface: 686 Depending on board, define exactly one serial port 687 (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2, 688 CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial 689 console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE 690 691 Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial 692 port routines must be defined elsewhere 693 (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...) 694 695 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 696 Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following 697 defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042) 698 VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation 699 (default big endian) 700 VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports 701 rectangle fill 702 (cf. smiLynxEM) 703 VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports 704 bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM) 705 VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns 706 (cols=pitch) 707 VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows 708 VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel 709 VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format 710 (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c) 711 VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address 712 VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct 713 (i.e. i8042_kbd_init()) 714 VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct 715 (i.e. i8042_tstc) 716 VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct 717 (i.e. i8042_getc) 718 CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR cursor drawing on/off 719 (requires blink timer 720 cf. i8042.c) 721 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c) 722 CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME display time/date info in 723 upper right corner 724 (requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE) 725 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in 726 upper left corner 727 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of 728 linux_logo.h for logo. 729 Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 730 CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO 731 additional board info beside 732 the logo 733 734 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support 735 a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control, 736 erase functions and limited graphics rendition control). 737 738 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is 739 default i/o. Serial console can be forced with 740 environment 'console=serial'. 741 742 When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console 743 messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with 744 the "silent" environment variable. See 745 doc/README.silent for more information. 746 747 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default 748 is 0x00. 749 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default 750 is 0xa0. 751 752- Console Baudrate: 753 CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps 754 Select one of the baudrates listed in 755 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 756 CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale 757 758- Console Rx buffer length 759 With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define 760 the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC. 761 This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible. 762 If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE 763 must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for 764 the SMC. 765 766- Pre-Console Buffer: 767 Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART 768 initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. 769 Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to 770 buffer any console messages prior to the console being 771 initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 772 bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is 773 a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 774 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the 775 earlier bytes are discarded. 776 777 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if 778 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2 779 780- Safe printf() functions 781 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of 782 the printf() functions. These are defined in 783 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and 784 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes. 785 If this option is not given then these functions will 786 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means 787 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case. 788 789- Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds 790 Delay before automatically booting the default image; 791 set to -1 to disable autoboot. 792 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort 793 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined). 794 795 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that 796 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required. 797 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 798 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN 799 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED 800 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT 801 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 802 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 803 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2 804 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2 805 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK 806 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY 807 808- Autoboot Command: 809 CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 810 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled; 811 define a command string that is automatically executed 812 when no character is read on the console interface 813 within "Boot Delay" after reset. 814 815 CONFIG_BOOTARGS 816 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm 817 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the 818 environment value "bootargs". 819 820 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT 821 The value of these goes into the environment as 822 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used 823 as a convenience, when switching between booting from 824 RAM and NFS. 825 826- Bootcount: 827 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT 828 Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot 829 cycle, see: 830 http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit 831 832 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV 833 If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware 834 "bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a 835 saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable 836 "upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is 837 0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is 838 1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment. 839 So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available" 840 and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully. 841 842- Pre-Boot Commands: 843 CONFIG_PREBOOT 844 845 When this option is #defined, the existence of the 846 environment variable "preboot" will be checked 847 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 848 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp. 849 entering interactive mode. 850 851 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is 852 automatically generated or modified. For an example 853 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is 854 modified when the user holds down a certain 855 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when 856 booting the systems 857 858- Serial Download Echo Mode: 859 CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 860 If defined to 1, all characters received during a 861 serial download (using the "loads" command) are 862 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal 863 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take 864 time on others. This setting #define's the initial 865 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable. 866 867- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined) 868 CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE 869 Select one of the baudrates listed in 870 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 871 872- Monitor Functions: 873 Monitor commands can be included or excluded 874 from the build by using the #include files 875 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted 876 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h> 877 and augmenting with additional #define's 878 for wanted commands. 879 880 The default command configuration includes all commands 881 except those marked below with a "*". 882 883 CONFIG_CMD_ASKENV * ask for env variable 884 CONFIG_CMD_BDI bdinfo 885 CONFIG_CMD_BEDBUG * Include BedBug Debugger 886

(flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 993 994 Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands 995 (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know 996 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data 997 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or 998 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be 999 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other 1000 systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an 1001 initial stack and some data. 1002 1003 1004 XXX - this list needs to get updated! 1005 1006- Regular expression support: 1007 CONFIG_REGEX 1008 If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against 1009 the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library, 1010 which adds regex support to some commands, as for 1011 example "env grep" and "setexpr". 1012 1013- Device tree: 1014 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 1015 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree 1016 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically 1017 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is 1018 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device 1019 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. 1020 1021 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can 1022 be done using one of the two options below: 1023 1024 CONFIG_OF_EMBED 1025 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree 1026 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the 1027 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file 1028 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through 1029 the global data structure as gd->blob. 1030 1031 CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE 1032 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree 1033 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific 1034 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: 1035 1036 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin 1037 1038 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called 1039 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can 1040 still use the individual files if you need something more 1041 exotic. 1042 1043- Watchdog: 1044 CONFIG_WATCHDOG 1045 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog 1046 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC 1047 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 1048 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR 1049 register. When supported for a specific SoC is 1050 available, then no further board specific code should 1051 be needed to use it. 1052 1053 CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG 1054 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used 1055 SoC, then define this variable and provide board 1056 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. 1057 1058- U-Boot Version: 1059 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE 1060 If this variable is defined, an environment variable 1061 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot 1062 version as printed by the "version" command. 1063 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the 1064 next reset. 1065 1066- Real-Time Clock: 1067 1068 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC 1069 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the 1070 following options: 1071 1072 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx 1073 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC 1074 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC 1075 CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC 1076 CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC 1077 CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC 1078 CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC 1079 CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC 1080 CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC 1081 CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC 1082 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337 1083 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on 1084 RV3029 RTC. 1085 1086 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1087 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1088 1089- GPIO Support: 1090 CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO 1091 1092 The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of 1093 chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of 1094 pins supported by a particular chip. 1095 1096 Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1097 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1098 1099- Timestamp Support: 1100 1101 When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp 1102 (date and time) of an image is printed by image 1103 commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is 1104 automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE . 1105 1106- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported: 1107 Zero or more of the following: 1108 CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table. 1109 CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the 1110 Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc. 1111 CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc. 1112 CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the 1113 bootloader.

When used on devices 1177 with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot. 1178 1179 CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC 1180 default MAC for empty EEPROM after production. 1181 1182 CONFIG_EEPRO100 1183 Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips. 1184 Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM 1185 write routine for first time initialisation. 1186 1187 CONFIG_TULIP 1188 Support for Digital 2114x chips. 1189 Optional CONFIG_TULIP_SELECT_MEDIA for board specific 1190 modem chip initialisation (KS8761/QS6611). 1191 1192 CONFIG_NATSEMI 1193 Support for National dp83815 chips. 1194 1195 CONFIG_NS8382X 1196 Support for National dp8382[01] gigabit chips. 1197 1198- NETWORK Support (other): 1199 1200 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC 1201 Support for AT91RM9200 EMAC. 1202 1203 CONFIG_RMII 1204 Define this to use reduced MII inteface 1205 1206 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC_QUIET 1207 If this defined, the driver is quiet. 1208 The driver doen't show link status messages. 1209 1210 CONFIG_CALXEDA_XGMAC 1211 Support for the Calxeda XGMAC device 1212 1213 CONFIG_LAN91C96 1214 Support for SMSC's LAN91C96 chips. 1215 1216 CONFIG_LAN91C96_BASE 1217 Define this to hold the physical address 1218 of the LAN91C96's I/O space 1219 1220 CONFIG_LAN91C96_USE_32_BIT 1221 Define this to enable 32 bit addressing 1222 1223 CONFIG_SMC91111 1224 Support for SMSC's LAN91C111 chip 1225 1226 CONFIG_SMC91111_BASE 1227 Define this to hold the physical address 1228 of the device (I/O space) 1229 1230 CONFIG_SMC_USE_32_BIT 1231 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1232 1233 CONFIG_SMC_USE_IOFUNCS 1234 Define this to use i/o functions instead of macros 1235 (some hardware wont work with macros) 1236 1237 CONFIG_DRIVER_TI_EMAC 1238 Support for davinci emac 1239 1240 CONFIG_SYS_DAVINCI_EMAC_PHY_COUNT 1241 Define this if you have more then 3 PHYs. 1242 1243 CONFIG_FTGMAC100 1244 Support for Faraday's FTGMAC100 Gigabit SoC Ethernet 1245 1246 CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA 1247 Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY. 1248 Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY. 1249 If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur 1250 wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or 1251 useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit 1252 control registers. This behavior won't affect the 1253 correctnessof 10/100 link speed update. 1254 1255 CONFIG_SMC911X 1256 Support for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x chips 1257 1258 CONFIG_SMC911X_BASE 1259 Define this to hold the physical address 1260 of the device (I/O space) 1261 1262 CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT 1263 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1264 1265 CONFIG_SMC911X_16_BIT 1266 Define this if data bus is 16 bits. If your processor 1267 automatically converts one 32 bit word to two 16 bit 1268 words you may also try CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT. 1269 1270 CONFIG_SH_ETHER 1271 Support for Renesas on-chip Ethernet controller 1272 1273 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_USE_PORT 1274 Define the number of ports to be used 1275 1276 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_PHY_ADDR 1277 Define the ETH PHY's address 1278 1279 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_CACHE_WRITEBACK 1280 If this option is set, the driver enables cache flush. 1281 1282- TPM Support: 1283 CONFIG_TPM 1284 Support TPM devices. 1285 1286 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C 1287 Support for i2c bus TPM devices. Only one device 1288 per system is supported at this time. 1289 1290 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BUS_NUMBER 1291 Define the the i2c bus number for the TPM device 1292 1293 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_SLAVE_ADDRESS 1294 Define the TPM's address on the i2c bus 1295 1296 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BURST_LIMITATION 1297 Define the burst count bytes upper limit 1298 1299 CONFIG_TPM_ATMEL_TWI 1300 Support for Atmel TWI TPM device. Requires I2C support. 1301 1302 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_LPC 1303 Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device 1304 per system is supported at this time. 1305 1306 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS 1307 Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped 1308 to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at 1309 0xfed40000. 1310 1311 CONFIG_CMD_TPM 1312 Add tpm monitor functions. 1313 Requires CONFIG_TPM. If CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS is set, also 1314 provides monitor access to authorized functions. 1315 1316 CONFIG_TPM 1317 Define this to enable the TPM support library which provides 1318 functional interfaces to some TPM commands. 1319 Requires support for a TPM device. 1320 1321 CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS 1322 Define this to enable authorized functions in the TPM library. 1323 Requires CONFIG_TPM and CONFIG_SHA1. 1324 1325- USB Support: 1326 At the moment only the UHCI host controller is 1327 supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define 1328 CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it. 1329 define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard 1330 and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB 1331 storage devices. 1332 Note: 1333 Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives 1334 (TEAC FD-05PUB). 1335 MPC5200 USB requires additional defines: 1336 CONFIG_USB_CLOCK 1337 for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb 1338 CONFIG_PSC3_USB 1339 for USB on PSC3 1340 CONFIG_USB_CONFIG 1341 for differential drivers: 0x00001000 1342 for single ended drivers: 0x00005000 1343 for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100 1344 for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100 1345 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL 1346 May be defined to allow interrupt polling 1347 instead of using asynchronous interrupts 1348 1349 CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the 1350 txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset. 1351 1352 CONFIG_USB_HUB_MIN_POWER_ON_DELAY defines the minimum 1353 interval for usb hub power-on delay.(minimum 100msec) 1354 1355- USB Device: 1356 Define the below if you wish to use the USB console. 1357 Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the 1358 command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and 1359 attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print 1360 it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty 1361 can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to 1362 appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a 1363 Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device. 1364 If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate 1365 a Linux host by 1366 # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID 1367 else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment 1368 variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following 1369 might be defined in YourBoardName.h 1370 1371 CONFIG_USB_DEVICE 1372 Define this to build a UDC device 1373 1374 CONFIG_USB_TTY 1375 Define this to have a tty type of device available to 1376 talk to the UDC device 1377 1378 CONFIG_USBD_HS 1379 Define this to enable the high speed support for usb 1380 device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine 1381 int is_usbd_high_speed(void) 1382 also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll 1383 whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full 1384 speed. 1385 1386 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 1387 Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to 1388 be set to usbtty. 1389 1390 mpc8xx: 1391 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH 1392 Derive USB clock from external clock "blah" 1393 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02 1394 1395 CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH 1396 Derive USB clock from brgclk 1397 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04 1398 1399 If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to 1400 define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h 1401 or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define 1402 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME, 1403 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot 1404 should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host. 1405 1406 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER 1407 Define this string as the name of your company for 1408 - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company" 1409 1410 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME 1411 Define this string as the name of your product 1412 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device" 1413 1414 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 1415 Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB 1416 Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID 1417 to avoid polluting the USB namespace. 1418 - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF 1419 1420 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 1421 Define this as the unique Product ID 1422 for your device 1423 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF 1424 1425 Some USB device drivers may need to check USB cable attachment. 1426 In this case you can enable following config in BoardName.h: 1427 CONFIG_USB_CABLE_CHECK 1428 This enables function definition: 1429 - usb_cable_connected() in include/usb.h 1430 Implementation of this function is board-specific. 1431 1432- ULPI Layer Support: 1433 The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via 1434 the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY 1435 via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and 1436 the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based 1437 viewport is supported. 1438 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and 1439 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. 1440 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the 1441 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to 1442 the appropriate value in Hz. 1443 1444- MMC Support: 1445 The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To 1446 enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be 1447 accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device 1448 to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is 1449 enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with 1450 the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT. 1451 1452 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF 1453 Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller 1454 1455 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR 1456 Define the base address of MMCIF registers 1457 1458 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK 1459 Define the clock frequency for MMCIF 1460 1461- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support: 1462 CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION 1463 This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class 1464 1465 CONFIG_CMD_DFU 1466 This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have 1467 U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB. This command 1468 requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be 1469 set and define the alt settings to expose to the host. 1470 1471 CONFIG_DFU_MMC 1472 This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU. 1473 1474 CONFIG_DFU_NAND 1475 This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU. 1476 1477 CONFIG_DFU_RAM 1478 This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU. 1479 Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but 1480 allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage, 1481 one that would help mostly the developer. 1482 1483 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE 1484 Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the 1485 raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer 1486 configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable 1487 through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable. 1488 1489 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE 1490 When updating files rather than the raw storage device, 1491 we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write 1492 the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define 1493 this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer. 1494 Default is 4 MiB if undefined. 1495 1496- Journaling Flash filesystem support: 1497 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE, 1498 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV 1499 Define these for a default partition on a NAND device 1500 1501 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR, 1502 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS 1503 Define these for a default partition on a NOR device 1504 1505 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART 1506 Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a 1507 function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num) 1508 1509 If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to 1510 #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1 1511 to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you 1512 have not defined a custom partition 1513 1514- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support: 1515 CONFIG_FAT_WRITE 1516 1517 Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a 1518 file in FAT formatted partition. 1519 1520 This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the 1521 user to write files to FAT. 1522 1523CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support 1524 CONFIG_CMD_CBFS 1525 1526 Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot 1527 filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls 1528 and cbfsload. 1529 1530- Keyboard Support: 1531 CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD 1532 1533 Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard 1534 support 1535 1536 CONFIG_I8042_KBD 1537 Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and 1538 GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support. 1539 Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc 1540 for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking. 1541 1542 CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB 1543 Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface. 1544 This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller 1545 which provides key scans on request. 1546 1547- Video support: 1548 CONFIG_VIDEO 1549 1550 Define this to enable video support (for output to 1551 video). 1552 1553 CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000 1554 1555 Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip 1556 1557 CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM 1558 Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The 1559 video output is selected via environment 'videoout' 1560 (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is 1561 assumed. 1562 1563 For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is 1564 selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways 1565 are possible: 1566 - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers. 1567 Following standard modes are supported (* is default): 1568 1569 Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024 1570 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1571 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307 1572 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319 1573 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A 1574 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B 1575 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1576 (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;) 1577 1578 - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed 1579 from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c) 1580 1581 1582 CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806 1583 Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp 1584 and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP 1585 or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP 1586 1587 CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB 1588 Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for 1589 SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU 1590 support, and should also define these other macros: 1591 1592 CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR 1593 CONFIG_VIDEO 1594 CONFIG_CMD_BMP 1595 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 1596 CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR 1597 CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE 1598 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 1599 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO 1600 1601 The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment 1602 variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during 1603 boot. See the documentation file README.video for a 1604 description of this variable. 1605 1606 CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA 1607 1608 Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you 1609 are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer 1610 driver. 1611 1612 1613- Keyboard Support: 1614 CONFIG_KEYBOARD 1615 1616 Define this to enable a custom keyboard support. 1617 This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be 1618 defined in your board-specific files. 1619 The only board using this so far is RBC823. 1620 1621- LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD 1622 1623 Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD 1624 display); also select one of the supported displays 1625 by defining one of these: 1626 1627 CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD: 1628 1629 HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320. 1630 1631 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33: 1632 1633 NEC NL6448AC33-18.

Active, color, single scan. 1648 It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is. 1649 1650 CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341 1651 1652 Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480. 1653 Active, color, single scan. 1654 1655 CONFIG_HLD1045 1656 1657 HLD1045 display, 640x480. 1658 Active, color, single scan. 1659 1660 CONFIG_OPTREX_BW 1661 1662 Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5 1663 or 1664 Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T 1665 or 1666 Hitachi SP14Q002 1667 1668 320x240. Black & white. 1669 1670 Normally display is black on white background; define 1671 CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted. 1672 1673 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT 1674 1675 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is 1676 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead. 1677 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE 1678 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on 1679 a per-section basis. 1680 1681 CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES 1682 1683 When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of 1684 lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes 1685 the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling 1686 is slow. 1687 1688 CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8 1689 1690 Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD. 1691 1692 CONFIG_I2C_EDID 1693 1694 Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID 1695 information over I2C from an attached LCD display. 1696 1697- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN 1698 1699 If this option is set, the environment is checked for 1700 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display 1701 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD 1702 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address 1703 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The 1704 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This 1705 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is 1706 loaded very quickly after power-on. 1707 1708 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD 1709 1710 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment 1711 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address 1712 (see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses). 1713 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment 1714 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data 1715 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned 1716 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them) 1717 there is no need to set this option. 1718 1719 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN 1720 1721 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned 1722 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the 1723 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as 1724 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it 1725 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also 1726 specify 'm' for centering the image. 1727 1728 Example: 1729 setenv splashpos m,m 1730 => image at center of screen 1731 1732 setenv splashpos 30,20 1733 => image at x = 30 and y = 20 1734 1735 setenv splashpos -10,m 1736 => vertically centered image 1737 at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 1738 1739- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP 1740 1741 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP 1742 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the 1743 splashscreen support or the bmp command. 1744 1745- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8 1746 1747 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images 1748 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the 1749 bmp command. 1750 1751- Do compresssing for memory range: 1752 CONFIG_CMD_ZIP 1753 1754 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method 1755 to compress the specified memory at its best effort. 1756 1757- Compression support: 1758 CONFIG_GZIP 1759 1760 Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images. 1761 1762 CONFIG_BZIP2 1763 1764 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed 1765 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip 1766 compressed images are supported. 1767 1768 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so 1769 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should 1770 be at least 4MB. 1771 1772 CONFIG_LZMA 1773 1774 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed 1775 images is included. 1776 1777 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it 1778 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the 1779 formula: 1780 1781 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) 1782 1783 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits 1784 and Literal pos bits. 1785 1786 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, 1787 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a 1788 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is 1789 a very small buffer. 1790 1791 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and 1792 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring 1793 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value). 1794 1795 CONFIG_LZO 1796 1797 If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images 1798 is included. 1799 1800- MII/PHY support: 1801 CONFIG_PHY_ADDR 1802 1803 The address of PHY on MII bus. 1804 1805 CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx) 1806 1807 The clock frequency of the MII bus 1808 1809 CONFIG_PHY_GIGE 1810 1811 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex 1812 detection of gigabit PHY is included. 1813 1814 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY 1815 1816 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 1817 reset before any MII register access is possible. 1818 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay 1819 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A) 1820 1821 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx) 1822 1823 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 1824 command issued before MII status register can be read 1825 1826- Ethernet address: 1827 CONFIG_ETHADDR 1828 CONFIG_ETH1ADDR 1829 CONFIG_ETH2ADDR 1830 CONFIG_ETH3ADDR 1831 CONFIG_ETH4ADDR 1832 CONFIG_ETH5ADDR 1833 1834 Define a default value for Ethernet address to use 1835 for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this 1836 is not determined automatically. 1837 1838- IP address: 1839 CONFIG_IPADDR 1840 1841 Define a default value for the IP address to use for 1842 the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not 1843 determined through e.g. bootp. 1844 (Environment variable "ipaddr") 1845 1846- Server IP address: 1847 CONFIG_SERVERIP 1848 1849 Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP 1850 server to contact when using the "tftboot" command. 1851 (Environment variable "serverip") 1852 1853 CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR 1854 1855 Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr' 1856 for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option) 1857 1858- Gateway IP address: 1859 CONFIG_GATEWAYIP 1860 1861 Defines a default value for the IP address of the 1862 default router where packets to other networks are 1863 sent to. 1864 (Environment variable "gatewayip") 1865 1866- Subnet mask: 1867 CONFIG_NETMASK 1868 1869 Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or 1870 routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP 1871 address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be 1872 forwarded through a router. 1873 (Environment variable "netmask") 1874 1875- Multicast TFTP Mode: 1876 CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP 1877 1878 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per 1879 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets 1880 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet 1881 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a 1882 multicast group. 1883 1884- BOOTP Recovery Mode: 1885 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY 1886 1887 If you have many targets in a network that try to 1888 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all 1889 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same 1890 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery 1891 from a power failure, when all systems will try to 1892 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining 1893 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be 1894 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The 1895 following delays are inserted then: 1896 1897 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec 1898 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec 1899 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec 1900 4th and following 1901 BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec 1902 1903- DHCP Advanced Options: 1904 You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining 1905 CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols: 1906 1907 CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK 1908 CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY 1909 CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME 1910 CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN 1911 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH 1912 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE 1913 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 1914 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 1915 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME 1916 CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER 1917 CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET 1918 CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX 1919 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL 1920 1921 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip 1922 environment variable, not the BOOTP server. 1923 1924 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found 1925 after the configured retry count, the call will fail 1926 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over 1927 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server 1928 is not available. 1929 1930 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS 1931 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more 1932 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. 1933 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS 1934 serverip will be stored in the additional environment 1935 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always 1936 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 1937 is defined. 1938 1939 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable 1940 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they 1941 need the hostname of the DHCP requester. 1942 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content 1943 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as 1944 option 12 to the DHCP server. 1945 1946 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY 1947 1948 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between 1949 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request". 1950 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't 1951 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an 1952 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed 1953 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003 1954 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at 1955 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope 1956 that one of the retries will be successful but note that 1957 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than 1958 this delay. 1959 1960 - Link-local IP address negotiation: 1961 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network 1962 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. 1963 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed 1964 to exist in all environments that the device must operate. 1965 1966 See doc/README.link-local for more information. 1967 1968 - CDP Options: 1969 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID 1970 1971 The device id used in CDP trigger frames. 1972 1973 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX 1974 1975 A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address 1976 of the device. 1977 1978 CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID 1979 1980 A printf format string which contains the ascii name of 1981 the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets 1982 eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc. 1983 1984 CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES 1985 1986 A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities; 1987 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards. 1988 1989 CONFIG_CDP_VERSION 1990 1991 An ascii string containing the version of the software. 1992 1993 CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM 1994 1995 An ascii string containing the name of the platform. 1996 1997 CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER 1998 1999 A 32bit integer sent on the trigger. 2000 2001 CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION 2002 2003 A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the 2004 device in .1 of milliwatts. 2005 2006 CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE 2007 2008 A byte containing the id of the VLAN. 2009 2010- Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED 2011 2012 Several configurations allow to display the current 2013 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink 2014 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as 2015 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and 2016 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running 2017 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux 2018 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this 2019 feature in U-Boot. 2020 2021 Additional options: 2022 2023 CONFIG_GPIO_LED 2024 The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin. 2025 In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a 2026 status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED 2027 to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary. 2028 2029 CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE 2030 Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which 2031 case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and 2032 GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state. 2033 In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined 2034 with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity. 2035 2036- CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER 2037 2038 Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support 2039 on those systems that support this (optional) 2040 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. 2041 2042- I2C Support: CONFIG_SYS_I2C 2043 2044 This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use 2045 i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set 2046 CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c 2047 based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See 2048 common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line 2049 interface. 2050 2051 ported i2c driver to the new framework: 2052 - drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c: 2053 - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define 2054 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE 2055 for defining speed and slave address 2056 - activate second bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS2 define 2057 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_2 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_2 2058 for defining speed and slave address 2059 - activate third bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS3 define 2060 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_3 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_3 2061 for defining speed and slave address 2062 - activate fourth bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS4 define 2063 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_4 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_4 2064 for defining speed and slave address 2065 2066 - drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c: 2067 - activate i2c driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_FSL 2068 define CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_OFFSET for setting the register 2069 offset CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SPEED for the i2c speed and 2070 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SLAVE for the slave addr of the first 2071 bus. 2072 - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define 2073 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset 2074 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SPEED for the speed and 2075 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SLAVE for the slave address of the 2076 second bus. 2077 2078 - drivers/i2c/tegra_i2c.c: 2079 - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_TEGRA 2080 - This driver adds 4 i2c buses with a fix speed from 2081 100000 and the slave addr 0!

2154 2155 additional defines: 2156 2157 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES 2158 Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you 2159 don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this 2160 is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can 2161 omit this define. 2162 2163 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS 2164 define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware. 2165 if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can 2166 omit this define. 2167 2168 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS 2169 define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected 2170 on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this 2171 define. 2172 2173 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES 2174 hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if 2175 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example 2176 a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and 2177 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9: 2178 2179 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES {{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2180 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \ 2181 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \ 2182 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \ 2183 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \ 2184 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \ 2185 {1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2186 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \ 2187 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \ 2188 } 2189 2190 which defines 2191 bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux 2192 bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1 2193 bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2 2194 bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3 2195 bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4 2196 bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5 2197 bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux 2198 bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1 2199 bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2 2200 2201 If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define. 2202 2203- Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C 2204 2205 NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which 2206 provides the following compelling advantages: 2207 2208 - more than one i2c adapter is usable 2209 - approved multibus support 2210 - better i2c mux support 2211 2212 ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. ** 2213 2214 These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining 2215 CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver 2216 for the selected CPU. 2217 2218 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot 2219 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in 2220 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime 2221 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the 2222 command line interface. 2223 2224 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. 2225 2226 There are several other quantities that must also be 2227 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2228 2229 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED 2230 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus 2231 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie 2232 the CPU's i2c node address). 2233 2234 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx 2235 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node 2236 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See, 2237 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set 2238 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0. 2239 2240 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX 2241 2242 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2243 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2244 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start 2245 commands until the slave device responds. 2246 2247 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2248 2249 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT) 2250 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are 2251 from include/configs/lwmon.h): 2252 2253 I2C_INIT 2254 2255 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C 2256 controller or configure ports. 2257 2258 eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL) 2259 2260 I2C_PORT 2261 2262 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code 2263 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values 2264 are 0..3 for ports A..D. 2265 2266 I2C_ACTIVE 2267 2268 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active 2269 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this 2270 define can be null. 2271 2272 eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA) 2273 2274 I2C_TRISTATE 2275 2276 The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated 2277 (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this 2278 define can be null. 2279 2280 eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA) 2281 2282 I2C_READ 2283 2284 Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high, 2285 false if it is low. 2286 2287 eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0) 2288 2289 I2C_SDA(bit) 2290 2291 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it 2292 is false, it clears it (low). 2293 2294 eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \ 2295 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \ 2296 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA 2297 2298 I2C_SCL(bit) 2299 2300 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it 2301 is false, it clears it (low). 2302 2303 eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \ 2304 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \ 2305 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL 2306 2307 I2C_DELAY 2308 2309 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this 2310 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus 2311 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something 2312 like: 2313 2314 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2) 2315 2316 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA 2317 2318 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h), 2319 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be 2320 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will 2321 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate. 2322 2323 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to 2324 the generic GPIO functions. 2325 2326 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD 2327 2328 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2329 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2330 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access 2331 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the 2332 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin 2333 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a 2334 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c 2335 is run early in the boot sequence. 2336 2337 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT 2338 2339 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is 2340 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in 2341 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() 2342 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus 2343 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c 2344 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of 2345 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus 2346 controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). 2347 2348 CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 2349 2350 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags 2351 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment 2352 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast) 2353 2354 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2355 2356 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which 2357 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is 2358 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command. 2359 Note that bus numbering is zero-based. 2360 2361 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES 2362 2363 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped 2364 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2365 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify 2366 a 1D array of device addresses 2367 2368 e.g. 2369 #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2370 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68} 2371 2372 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus 2373 2374 #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2375 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}} 2376 2377 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1 2378 2379 CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 2380 2381 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD. 2382 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0. 2383 2384 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM 2385 2386 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC. 2387 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0. 2388 2389 CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM 2390 2391 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT. 2392 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0. 2393 2394 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR: 2395 2396 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device. 2397 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for 2398 specified DTT device. 2399 2400 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START 2401 2402 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in 2403 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start 2404 between writing the address pointer and reading the 2405 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour 2406 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C 2407 devices can use either method, but some require one or 2408 the other. 2409 2410- SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI 2411 2412 Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with 2413 SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and 2414 D/As on the SACSng board) 2415 2416 CONFIG_SH_SPI 2417 2418 Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently 2419 only SH7757 is supported. 2420 2421 CONFIG_SPI_X 2422 2423 Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing. 2424 (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X) 2425 2426 CONFIG_SOFT_SPI 2427 2428 Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than 2429 using hardware support. This is a general purpose 2430 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins 2431 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is 2432 defined, the board configuration must define several 2433 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For 2434 an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h. 2435 2436 CONFIG_HARD_SPI 2437 2438 Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads 2439 and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration 2440 must define a list of chip-select function pointers. 2441 Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an 2442 example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h. 2443 2444 CONFIG_MXC_SPI 2445 2446 Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC 2447 SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported. 2448 2449- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA 2450 2451 Enables FPGA subsystem. 2452 2453 CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor> 2454 2455 Enables support for specific chip vendors. 2456 (ALTERA, XILINX) 2457 2458 CONFIG_FPGA_<family> 2459 2460 Enables support for FPGA family. 2461 (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX) 2462 2463 CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT 2464 2465 Specify the number of FPGA devices to support. 2466 2467 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK 2468 2469 Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration. 2470 2471 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY 2472 2473 Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy 2474 status by the configuration function. This option 2475 will require a board or device specific function to 2476 be written. 2477 2478 CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY 2479 2480 If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA 2481 configuration driver. 2482 2483 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC 2484 Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration 2485 2486 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR 2487 2488 Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile 2489 loading. For example, abort during Virtex II 2490 configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which 2491 indicated a CRC error). 2492 2493 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT 2494 2495 Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert 2496 after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II 2497 FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500 2498 ms. 2499 2500 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY 2501 2502 Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during 2503 Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms. 2504 2505 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG 2506 2507 Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is 2508 200 ms. 2509 2510- Configuration Management: 2511 CONFIG_IDENT_STRING 2512 2513 If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot 2514 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION) 2515 2516- Vendor Parameter Protection: 2517 2518 U-Boot considers the values of the environment 2519 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and 2520 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that 2521 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and 2522 protects these variables from casual modification by 2523 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only, 2524 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can 2525 change this behaviour: 2526 2527 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config 2528 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is 2529 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete 2530 these parameters. 2531 2532 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR 2533 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default 2534 Ethernet address is installed in the environment, 2535 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The 2536 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains 2537 read-only.] 2538 2539 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way 2540 for any variable by configuring the type of access 2541 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable 2542 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC. 2543 2544- Protected RAM: 2545 CONFIG_PRAM 2546 2547 Define this variable to enable the reservation of 2548 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten 2549 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of 2550 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite 2551 this default value by defining an environment 2552 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to 2553 reserve. Note that the board info structure will 2554 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is 2555 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will 2556 automatically be defined to hold the amount of 2557 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot 2558 argument to Linux, for instance like that: 2559 2560 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem} 2561 saveenv 2562 2563 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory, 2564 either, which results in a memory region that will 2565 not be affected by reboots. 2566 2567 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic 2568 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that 2569 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the 2570 following board configurations are known to be 2571 "pRAM-clean": 2572 2573 IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL, 2574 HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, 2575 FLAGADM, TQM8260 2576 2577- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB) 2578 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not 2579 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures 2580 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit 2581 machines using physical address extension or similar. 2582 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which 2583 currently only supports clearing the memory. 2584 2585- Error Recovery: 2586 CONFIG_PANIC_HANG 2587 2588 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a 2589 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually. 2590 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded 2591 system where you want the system to reboot 2592 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be 2593 useful during development since you can try to debug 2594 the conditions that lead to the situation. 2595 2596 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT 2597 2598 This variable defines the number of retries for 2599 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP 2600 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a 2601 default value of 5 is used. 2602 2603 CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT 2604 2605 Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds. 2606 2607 CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 2608 2609 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol. 2610 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command, 2611 try longer timeout such as 2612 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL 2613 2614- Command Interpreter: 2615 CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE 2616 2617 Enable auto completion of commands using TAB. 2618 2619 Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet 2620 for the "hush" shell. 2621 2622 2623 CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER 2624 2625 Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from 2626 Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling 2627 powerful command line syntax like 2628 if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||' 2629 constructs ("shell scripts"). 2630 2631 If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour 2632 with a somewhat smaller memory footprint. 2633 2634 2635 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 2636 2637 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is 2638 printed when the command interpreter needs more input 2639 to complete a command. Usually "> ". 2640 2641 Note: 2642 2643 In the current implementation, the local variables 2644 space and global environment variables space are 2645 separated. Local variables are those you define by 2646 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local 2647 variable later on, you have write `$name' or 2648 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable 2649 directly type `$name' at the command prompt. 2650 2651 Global environment variables are those you use 2652 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored 2653 in such a variable, you need to use the run command, 2654 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them. 2655 2656 To store commands and special characters in a 2657 variable, please use double quotation marks 2658 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead 2659 of the backslashes before semicolons and special 2660 symbols. 2661 2662- Commandline Editing and History: 2663 CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING 2664 2665 Enable editing and History functions for interactive 2666 commandline input operations 2667 2668- Default Environment: 2669 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS 2670 2671 Define this to contain any number of null terminated 2672 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of 2673 the default environment compiled into the boot image. 2674 2675 For example, place something like this in your 2676 board's config file: 2677 2678 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \ 2679 "myvar1=value1\0" \ 2680 "myvar2=value2\0" 2681 2682 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the 2683 internal format how the environment is stored by the 2684 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported 2685 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format 2686 will change soon, there is no guarantee either. 2687 You better know what you are doing here. 2688 2689 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is 2690 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset 2691 the environment like the "source" command or the 2692 boot command first. 2693 2694 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG 2695 2696 Define this in order to add variables describing the 2697 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment. 2698 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc. 2699 2700 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined: 2701 2702 - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH 2703 - CONFIG_SYS_CPU 2704 - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD 2705 - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR 2706 - CONFIG_SYS_SOC 2707 2708 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG 2709 2710 Define this in order to add variables describing certain 2711 run-time determined information about the hardware to the 2712 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev. 2713 2714 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT 2715 2716 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is 2717 intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits 2718 that so that the environment is not available until 2719 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 2720 this is instead controlled by the value of 2721 /config/load-environment. 2722 2723- DataFlash Support: 2724 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH 2725 2726 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and 2727 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard 2728 commands cp, md... 2729 2730- Serial Flash support 2731 CONFIG_CMD_SF 2732 2733 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands 2734 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'. 2735 2736 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial 2737 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update 2738 commands. 2739 2740 The following defaults may be provided by the platform 2741 to handle the common case when only a single serial 2742 flash is present on the system. 2743 2744 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier 2745 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select 2746 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h) 2747 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz 2748 2749 CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST 2750 2751 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash 2752 test ('sf test'). 2753 2754 CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg 2755 2756 Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr 2757 support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes. 2758 2759- SystemACE Support: 2760 CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 2761 2762 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE 2763 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address 2764 of the chip must also be defined in the 2765 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example: 2766 2767 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 2768 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000 2769 2770 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type 2771 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls. 2772 2773- TFTP Fixed UDP Port: 2774 CONFIG_TFTP_PORT 2775 2776 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp 2777 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value. 2778 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port 2779 number generator is used. 2780 2781 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply 2782 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't 2783 defined, the normal port 69 is used. 2784 2785 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to 2786 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured 2787 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of 2788 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing 2789 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally. 2790 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall, 2791 but sometimes that is not allowed. 2792 2793- Hashing support: 2794 CONFIG_CMD_HASH 2795 2796 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce 2797 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256). 2798 2799 CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY 2800 2801 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code 2802 size a little. 2803 2804 CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing 2805 CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing 2806 2807 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps 2808 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'. 2809 2810- Freescale i.MX specific commands: 2811 CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT 2812 This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an 2813 HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific. 2814 2815 CONFIG_CMD_BMODE 2816 This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing 2817 a boot from specific media. 2818 2819 This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to 2820 activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating 2821 on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal 2822 will set it back to normal. This command currently 2823 supports i.MX53 and i.MX6. 2824 2825- Signing support: 2826 CONFIG_RSA 2827 2828 This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification 2829 in U-Boot. See doc/uImage/signature for more information. 2830 2831 The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this 2832 option. 2833 2834 2835- Show boot progress: 2836 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS 2837 2838 Defining this option allows to add some board- 2839 specific code (calling a user-provided function 2840 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show 2841 the system's boot progress on some display (for 2842 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment, 2843 the following checkpoints are implemented: 2844 2845- Detailed boot stage timing 2846 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE 2847 Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage 2848 of the boot process. 2849 2850 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT 2851 This is the number of available user bootstage records. 2852 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...) 2853 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed 2854 the limit, recording will stop. 2855 2856 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT 2857 Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this: 2858 2859 Timer summary in microseconds: 2860 Mark Elapsed Stage 2861 0 0 reset 2862 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start 2863 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9 2864 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done 2865 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start 2866 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop 2867 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start 2868 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel 2869 2870 CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE 2871 Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report 2872 and un/stashing of bootstage data. 2873 2874 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT 2875 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage' 2876 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child 2877 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the 2878 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the 2879 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds. 2880 For example: 2881 2882 bootstage { 2883 154 { 2884 name = "board_init_f"; 2885 mark = <3575678>; 2886 }; 2887 170 { 2888 name = "lcd"; 2889 accum = <33482>; 2890 }; 2891 }; 2892 2893 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree. 2894 2895Legacy uImage format: 2896 2897 Arg Where When 2898 1 common/cmd_bootm.c before attempting to boot an image 2899 -1 common/cmd_bootm.c Image header

CONFIG_FIT 3050 Enable support for the FIT uImage format. 3051 3052 CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH 3053 When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the 3054 one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of 3055 U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the 3056 most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node. 3057 The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored. 3058 3059 CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE 3060 This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages, 3061 using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See 3062 doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details. 3063 3064- Standalone program support: 3065 CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR 3066 3067 This option defines a board specific value for the 3068 address where standalone program gets loaded, thus 3069 overwriting the architecture dependent default 3070 settings. 3071 3072- Frame Buffer Address: 3073 CONFIG_FB_ADDR 3074 3075 Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific 3076 address for frame buffer. This is typically the case 3077 when using a graphics controller has separate video 3078 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at 3079 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it 3080 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs 3081 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the 3082 configured panel size. 3083 3084 Please see board_init_f function. 3085 3086- Automatic software updates via TFTP server 3087 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP 3088 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX 3089 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX 3090 3091 These options enable and control the auto-update feature; 3092 for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update. 3093 3094- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support) 3095 CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE 3096 3097 Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel. 3098 Needed for mtdparts command support. 3099 3100 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS 3101 3102 Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux 3103 kernel.

This is used for example on davinci plattforms. 3293 3294 CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND 3295 Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the 3296 ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present. 3297 3298 CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT 3299 Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary 3300 3301 CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT 3302 Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary 3303 3304 CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUPPORT 3305 Support for drivers/spi/libspi.o in SPL binary 3306 3307 CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE 3308 Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary 3309 3310 CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT 3311 Support for lib/libgeneric.o in SPL binary 3312 3313 CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT 3314 Support for the environment operating in SPL binary 3315 3316 CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT 3317 Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary. 3318 It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by 3319 CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE 3320 3321 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO 3322 Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending 3323 the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as 3324 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3325 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3326 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3327 3328 CONFIG_SPL_TARGET 3329 Final target image containing SPL and payload. Some SPLs 3330 use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for 3331 example if more than one image needs to be produced. 3332 3333 CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT 3334 Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of 3335 code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this 3336 option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the 3337 bootm command when booting a FIT image. 3338 3339- TPL framework 3340 CONFIG_TPL 3341 Enable building of TPL globally. 3342 3343 CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO 3344 Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending 3345 the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as 3346 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3347 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3348 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3349 3350Modem Support: 3351-------------- 3352 3353[so far only for SMDK2400 boards] 3354 3355- Modem support enable: 3356 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT 3357 3358- RTS/CTS Flow control enable: 3359 CONFIG_HWFLOW 3360 3361- Modem debug support: 3362 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG 3363 3364 Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg()) 3365 for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000. 3366 3367- Interrupt support (PPC): 3368 3369 There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt() 3370 for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu() 3371 for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu() 3372 should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If 3373 CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt 3374 (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero. 3375 timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU 3376 specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led 3377 / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from 3378 general timer_interrupt(). 3379 3380- General: 3381 3382 In the target system modem support is enabled when a 3383 specific key (key combination) is pressed during 3384 power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally 3385 (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from 3386 board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy 3387 function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem 3388 initialization. 3389 3390 If there are no modem init strings in the 3391 environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the 3392 previous output (banner, info printfs) will be 3393 suppressed, though. 3394 3395 See also: doc/README.Modem 3396 3397Board initialization settings: 3398------------------------------ 3399 3400During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions 3401to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup 3402before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the 3403following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is 3404architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c 3405typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). 3406 3407- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() 3408- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() 3409- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() 3410- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() 3411 3412Configuration Settings: 3413----------------------- 3414 3415- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included; 3416 undefine this when you're short of memory. 3417 3418- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default 3419 width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output. 3420 3421- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to 3422 prompt for user input. 3423 3424- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console 3425 3426- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output 3427 3428- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands 3429 3430- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to 3431 the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is 3432 booted 3433 3434- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE: 3435 List of legal baudrate settings for this board. 3436 3437- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET 3438 Suppress display of console information at boot. 3439 3440- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 3441 If the board specific function 3442 extern int overwrite_console (void); 3443 returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the 3444 serial port, else the settings in the environment are used. 3445 3446- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE 3447 Enable the call to overwrite_console(). 3448 3449- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE 3450 Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings. 3451 3452- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END: 3453 Begin and End addresses of the area used by the 3454 simple memory test. 3455 3456- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST: 3457 Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test. 3458 3459- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH: 3460 Scratch address used by the alternate memory test 3461 You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable 3462 3463- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only): 3464 If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, 3465 this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top 3466 (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By 3467 fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed 3468 the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either. 3469 This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux 3470 board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that 3471 recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup 3472 will have to get fixed in Linux additionally. 3473 3474 This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx 3475 CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't 3476 be touched. 3477 3478 WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of 3479 the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case, 3480 then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a 3481 non page size aligned address and this could cause major 3482 problems. 3483 3484- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE: 3485 Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download 3486 3487- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE: 3488 Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here. 3489 3490- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE: 3491 Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a 3492 Cogent motherboard) 3493 3494- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE: 3495 Physical start address of Flash memory. 3496 3497- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE: 3498 Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by 3499 make config files to be same as the text base address 3500 (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as 3501 CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash. 3502 3503- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN: 3504 Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to 3505 determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is 3506 embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate 3507 flash sector. 3508 3509- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN: 3510 Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use. 3511 3512- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN: 3513 Normally compressed uImages are limited to an 3514 uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough, 3515 you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file 3516 to adjust this setting to your needs. 3517 3518- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ: 3519 Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of 3520 the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by 3521 the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if 3522 used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low" 3523 environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case 3524 all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low" 3525 and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment 3526 variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of 3527 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined, 3528 then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead. 3529 3530- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH: 3531 Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the 3532 initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand 3533 is enabled. 3534 3535- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE: 3536 Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between 3537 "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 3538 3539- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD: 3540 Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in 3541 space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 3542 3543- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS: 3544 Max number of Flash memory banks 3545 3546- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT: 3547 Max number of sectors on a Flash chip 3548 3549- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT: 3550 Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms) 3551 3552- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT: 3553 Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms) 3554 3555- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT 3556 Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms) 3557 3558- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT 3559 Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms) 3560 3561- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION 3562 If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used 3563 instead of U-Boot software protection. 3564 3565- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP: 3566 3567 Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory; 3568 without this option such a download has to be 3569 performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2) 3570 copy from RAM to flash. 3571 3572 The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since 3573 you can check if the download worked before you erase 3574 the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is 3575 too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the 3576 downloaded image) this option may be very useful. 3577 3578- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI: 3579 Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the 3580 common flash structure for storing flash geometry. 3581 3582- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER 3583 This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver 3584 in the drivers directory 3585 3586- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD 3587 This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver 3588 in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash 3589 to the MTD layer. 3590 3591- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE 3592 Use buffered writes to flash. 3593 3594- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N 3595 s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered 3596 write commands. 3597 3598- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST 3599 If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't 3600 print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This 3601 is useful, if some of the configured banks are only 3602 optionally available. 3603 3604- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS 3605 If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown 3606 digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80 3607 column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays. 3608 3609- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY 3610 If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared 3611 against the source after the write operation. An error message 3612 will be printed when the contents are not identical. 3613 Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases, 3614 since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier 3615 while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable 3616 this option if you really know what you are doing. 3617 3618- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER: 3619 Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some 3620 Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value 3621 to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all 3622 buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface 3623 on high Ethernet traffic. 3624 Defaults to 4 if not defined. 3625 3626- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES 3627 3628 Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used 3629 internally to store the environment settings. The default 3630 setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most 3631 cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see 3632 lib/hashtable.c for details. 3633 3634- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 3635- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 3636 Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when 3637 calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal, 3638 hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined, 3639 the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address. 3640 3641 The format of the list is: 3642 type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m] 3643 access_atribute = [a|r|o|c] 3644 attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute] 3645 entry = variable_name[:attributes] 3646 list = entry[,list] 3647 3648 The type attributes are: 3649 s - String (default) 3650 d - Decimal 3651 x - Hexadecimal 3652 b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF]) 3653 i - IP address 3654 m - MAC address 3655 3656 The access attributes are: 3657 a - Any (default) 3658 r - Read-only 3659 o - Write-once 3660 c - Change-default 3661 3662 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 3663 Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags" 3664 envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. 3665 3666 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 3667 Define this to a list (string) to define validation that 3668 should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags" 3669 environment variable. To override a setting in the static 3670 list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the 3671 ".flags" variable. 3672 3673- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE 3674 If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable 3675 access flags. 3676 3677- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD 3678 This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the 3679 architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards 3680 to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the 3681 arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and 3682 common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture 3683 must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in 3684 its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on 3685 your board please report the problem and send patches! 3686 3687- CONFIG_SYS_SYM_OFFSETS 3688 This is set by architectures that use offsets for link symbols 3689 instead of absolute values. So bss_start is obtained using an 3690 offset _bss_start_ofs from CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, rather than 3691 directly. You should not need to touch this setting. 3692 3693- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only) 3694 This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should 3695 be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how 3696 the value can be calulated on a given board. 3697 3698The following definitions that deal with the placement and management 3699of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the 3700following configurations: 3701 3702- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC: 3703 3704 Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils 3705 may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images. 3706 3707- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH: 3708 3709 Define this if the environment is in flash memory. 3710 3711 a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is 3712 "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This 3713 happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot 3714 sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller 3715 sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a 3716 layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In 3717 such a case you would place the environment in one of the 3718 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With 3719 "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the 3720 environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap 3721 between U-Boot and the environment. 3722 3723 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3724 3725 Offset of environment data (variable area) to the 3726 beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot 3727 type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset 3728 for this sector is given here. 3729 3730 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE. 3731 3732 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3733 3734 This is just another way to specify the start address of 3735 the flash sector containing the environment (instead of 3736 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET). 3737 3738 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: 3739 3740 Size of the sector containing the environment. 3741 3742 3743 b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. 3744 In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for 3745 the environment. 3746 3747 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3748 3749 If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 3750 and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part 3751 of this flash sector for the environment. This saves 3752 memory for the RAM copy of the environment. 3753 3754 It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this 3755 when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, 3756 since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used 3757 for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is 3758 STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view: 3759 updating the environment in flash makes it always 3760 necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes 3761 wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in 3762 RAM, your target system will be dead. 3763 3764 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND 3765 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND 3766 3767 These settings describe a second storage area used to hold 3768 a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is 3769 a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during 3770 a "saveenv" operation. 3771 3772BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the 3773source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds* 3774accordingly! 3775 3776 3777- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM: 3778 3779 Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device 3780 (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the 3781 environment. 3782 3783 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3784 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3785 3786 These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you 3787 want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory 3788 can just be read and written to, without any special 3789 provision. 3790 3791BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early 3792in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the 3793console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or 3794U-Boot will hang. 3795 3796Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the 3797environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to 3798keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv" 3799to save the current settings. 3800 3801 3802- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM: 3803 3804 Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access 3805 device and a driver for it. 3806 3807 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3808 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3809 3810 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the 3811 environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM. 3812 3813 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR: 3814 If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device. 3815 The default address is zero. 3816 3817 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS: 3818 If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a 3819 single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example 3820 would require six bits. 3821 3822 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS: 3823 If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between 3824 page writes. The default is zero milliseconds. 3825 3826 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN: 3827 The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note 3828 that this is NOT the chip address length! 3829 3830 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW: 3831 EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones 3832 like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of 3833 address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit 3834 slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256 3835 byte chips. 3836 3837 Note that we consider the length of the address field to 3838 still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden 3839 in the chip address. 3840 3841 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE: 3842 The size in bytes of the EEPROM device. 3843 3844 - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C 3845 define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your 3846 EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus. 3847 3848 - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 3849 if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over 3850 I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this 3851 EEPROM. For example: 3852 3853 #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 1 3854 3855 EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over 3856 a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3. 3857 3858- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH: 3859 3860 Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you 3861 want to use for the environment. 3862 3863 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3864 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3865 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3866 3867 These three #defines specify the offset and size of the 3868 environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed 3869 at the specified address. 3870 3871- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE: 3872 3873 Define this if you have a remote memory space which you 3874 want to use for the local device's environment. 3875 3876 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3877 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3878 3879 These two #defines specify the address and size of the 3880 environment area within the remote memory space. The 3881 local device can get the environment from remote memory 3882 space by SRIO or PCIE links. 3883 3884BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use 3885"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the 3886environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link, 3887but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface. 3888 3889- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND: 3890 3891 Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use 3892 for the environment. 3893 3894 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3895 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3896 3897 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 3898 area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be 3899 aligned to an erase block boundary. 3900 3901 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 3902 3903 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE 3904 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so 3905 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure 3906 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be 3907 aligned to an erase block boundary. 3908 3909 - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional): 3910 3911 Specifies the length of the region in which the environment 3912 can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's 3913 block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than 3914 are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within 3915 the range to be avoided. 3916 3917 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional): 3918 3919 Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the 3920 environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The 3921 "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset. 3922 Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when 3923 using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB. 3924 3925- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST 3926 3927 Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the 3928 environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to 3929 CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 3930 3931- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI: 3932 3933 Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the 3934 environment. This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment 3935 accesses, which is important on NAND. 3936 3937 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART: 3938 3939 Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI. 3940 3941 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME: 3942 3943 Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the 3944 environment in. 3945 3946 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND: 3947 3948 Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of 3949 the environment in. This will enable redundant environments in UBI. 3950 It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition. 3951 3952 - CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG 3953 - CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG 3954 3955 You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system 3956 when storing the env in UBI. 3957 3958- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC: 3959 3960 Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the 3961 environment. 3962 3963 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV: 3964 3965 Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in. 3966 3967 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional): 3968 3969 Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not 3970 set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be 3971 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition). 3972 3973 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3974 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3975 3976 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 3977 area within the specified MMC device. 3978 3979 If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to 3980 the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated 3981 as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if 3982 your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have 3983 different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the 3984 environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the 3985 maximum possible space before it, to store other data. 3986 3987 These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an 3988 MMC sector boundary. 3989 3990 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 3991 3992 Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to 3993 hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a 3994 valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due 3995 to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation. 3996 3997 This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the 3998 same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET. 3999 4000 This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to 4001 an MMC sector boundary. 4002 4003 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional): 4004 4005 This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is 4006 set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as 4007 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 4008 4009- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET 4010 4011 Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The 4012 area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment 4013 is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte 4014 scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization 4015 calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems 4016 to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the 4017 start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer. 4018 4019Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor 4020has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been 4021created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f() 4022until then to read environment variables. 4023 4024The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor 4025is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working 4026with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is 4027necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the 4028"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't 4029have any device yet where we could complain.] 4030 4031Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if 4032the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you 4033use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment. 4034 4035- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN: 4036 Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED. 4037 4038 Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR 4039 also needs to be defined. 4040 4041- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR: 4042 MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state. 4043 4044- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS: 4045 Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init 4046 and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at 4047 drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving 4048 space for already greatly restricted images, including but not 4049 limited to NAND_SPL configurations. 4050 4051- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO 4052 Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on 4053 when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called 4054 to do this. 4055 4056- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE 4057 Similar to the previous option, but display this information 4058 later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if 4059 present. 4060 4061Low Level (hardware related) configuration options: 4062--------------------------------------------------- 4063 4064- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE: 4065 Cache Line Size of the CPU. 4066 4067- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR: 4068 Default address of the IMMR after system reset. 4069 4070 Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU, 4071 and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of 4072 the IMMR register after a reset. 4073 4074- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT: 4075 Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale 4076 PowerPC SOCs. 4077 4078- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR: 4079 Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically 4080 the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. 4081 4082 CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value, 4083 for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead. 4084 4085- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS: 4086 Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new 4087 physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should 4088 be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the 4089 same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR 4090 is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended 4091 that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros: 4092 4093 #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH 4094 * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW) 4095 4096- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH: 4097 Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically 4098 either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is 4099 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 4100 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 4101 4102- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW: 4103 Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is 4104 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 4105 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 4106 4107- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE: 4108 If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be 4109 forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated. 4110 4111- Floppy Disk Support: 4112 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER 4113 4114 the default drive number (default value 0) 4115 4116 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE 4117 4118 defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers 4119 (default value 1) 4120 4121 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET 4122 4123 defines the offset of register from address. It 4124 depends on which part of the data bus is connected to 4125 the FDC chipset. (default value 0) 4126 4127 If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and 4128 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their 4129 default value. 4130 4131 if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function 4132 fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC 4133 setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board 4134 source code. It is used to make hardware dependant 4135 initializations. 4136 4137- CONFIG_IDE_AHB: 4138 Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI 4139 interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface. 4140 When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to 4141 IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional 4142 registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller 4143 is requierd. 4144 4145- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory. 4146 DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're 4147 doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only] 4148 4149- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR: 4150 4151 Start address of memory area that can be used for 4152 initial data and stack; please note that this must be 4153 writable memory that is working WITHOUT special 4154 initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which 4155 will become available only after programming the 4156 memory controller and running certain initialization 4157 sequences. 4158 4159 U-Boot uses the following memory types: 4160 - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU) 4161 - MPC824X: data cache 4162 - PPC4xx: data cache 4163 4164- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET: 4165 4166 Offset of the initial data structure in the memory 4167 area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually 4168 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial 4169 data is located at the end of the available space 4170 (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - 4171 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just 4172 below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + 4173 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward. 4174 4175 Note: 4176 On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data 4177 cache for initial memory) the address chosen for 4178 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must 4179 point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between 4180 the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space. 4181 4182- CONFIG_SYS_SIUMCR: SIU Module Configuration (11-6) 4183 4184- CONFIG_SYS_SYPCR: System Protection Control (11-9) 4185 4186- CONFIG_SYS_TBSCR: Time Base Status and Control (11-26) 4187 4188- CONFIG_SYS_PISCR: Periodic Interrupt Status and Control (11-31) 4189 4190- CONFIG_SYS_PLPRCR: PLL, Low-Power, and Reset Control Register (15-30) 4191 4192- CONFIG_SYS_SCCR: System Clock and reset Control Register (15-27) 4193 4194- CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM: 4195 SDRAM timing 4196 4197- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA: 4198 periodic timer for refresh 4199 4200- CONFIG_SYS_DER: Debug Event Register (37-47) 4201 4202- FLASH_BASE0_PRELIM, FLASH_BASE1_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_REMAP_OR_AM, 4203 CONFIG_SYS_PRELIM_OR_AM, CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_FLASH, CONFIG_SYS_OR0_REMAP, 4204 CONFIG_SYS_OR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_REMAP, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_PRELIM, 4205 CONFIG_SYS_BR1_PRELIM: 4206 Memory Controller Definitions: BR0/1 and OR0/1 (FLASH) 4207 4208- SDRAM_BASE2_PRELIM, SDRAM_BASE3_PRELIM, SDRAM_MAX_SIZE, 4209 CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM, CONFIG_SYS_OR2_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR2_PRELIM, 4210 CONFIG_SYS_OR3_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR3_PRELIM: 4211 Memory Controller Definitions: BR2/3 and OR2/3 (SDRAM) 4212 4213- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_8K, 4214 CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_8K, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_8COL, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_9COL: 4215 Machine Mode Register and Memory Periodic Timer 4216 Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing) 4217 4218- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4219 enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4220 define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2] 4221 4222- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4223 enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4224 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1] 4225 4226- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4227 enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4228 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4] 4229 4230- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK: 4231 Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board.

If specified, then DDR should 4321 be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3. 4322 4323- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12] 4324 Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor. 4325 4326- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY 4327 Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds 4328 to the given FEC; i. e. 4329 #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4 4330 means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1 4331 4332 When set to -1, means to probe for first available. 4333 4334- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR 4335 The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only). 4336 (so program the FEC to ignore it). 4337 4338- CONFIG_RMII 4339 Enable RMII mode for all FECs. 4340 Note that this is a global option, we can't 4341 have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode. 4342 4343- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY 4344 Add a verify option to the crc32 command. 4345 The syntax is: 4346 4347 => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32> 4348 4349 Where address/count indicate a memory area 4350 and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the 4351 area should have. 4352 4353- CONFIG_LOOPW 4354 Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if 4355 the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4356 4357- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC 4358 Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic 4359 "md/mw" commands. 4360 Examples: 4361 4362 => mdc.b 10 4 500 4363 This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms. 4364 4365 => mwc.l 100 12345678 10 4366 This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms. 4367 4368 This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated 4369 globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4370 4371- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT 4372 [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain 4373 low level initializations (like setting up the memory 4374 controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not 4375 relocate itself into RAM. 4376 4377 Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only 4378 exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some 4379 other boot loader or by a debugger which performs 4380 these initializations itself. 4381 4382- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD 4383 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4384 that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when 4385 compiling a NAND SPL. 4386 4387- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD 4388 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4389 that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot. 4390 It is loaded by the SPL. 4391 4392- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC 4393 Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section 4394 .resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the 4395 previous 4k of the .text section. 4396 4397- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM 4398 Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses 4399 effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard 4400 U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated 4401 to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since 4402 it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all 4403 addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses 4404 to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem(). 4405 4406- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY 4407 CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET 4408 If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will 4409 be used if available. These functions may be faster under some 4410 conditions but may increase the binary size. 4411 4412- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR 4413 If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not 4414 needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot. 4415 4416- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK 4417 Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz). 4418 4419 NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms. 4420 4421- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC: 4422 Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms 4423 4424Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: 4425----------------------------------- 4426 4427The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the 4428loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. 4429This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros 4430are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address 4431within that device. 4432 4433- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR 4434 The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The 4435 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro 4436 is also specified. 4437 4438- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH 4439 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format 4440 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it 4441 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some 4442 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. 4443 4444- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR 4445 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as 4446 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the 4447 virtual address in NOR flash. 4448 4449- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND 4450 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. 4451 CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. 4452 4453- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC 4454 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC 4455 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 4456 4457- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH 4458 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI 4459 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 4460 4461- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE 4462 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master) 4463 memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which 4464 can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound 4465 window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in 4466 master's memory space. 4467 4468Building the Software: 4469====================== 4470 4471Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments 4472and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support 4473all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all 4474(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we 4475recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK) 4476which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot. 4477 4478If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you 4479have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, 4480you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. 4481Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are 4482necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter: 4483 4484 $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- 4485 $ export CROSS_COMPILE 4486 4487Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in 4488 the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain 4489 (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW 4490 toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: 4491 4492 $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools 4493 4494 Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can 4495 be executed on computers running Windows. 4496 4497U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the 4498sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This 4499is done by typing: 4500 4501 make NAME_config 4502 4503where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu- 4504rations; see boards.cfg for supported names. 4505 4506Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if 4507 additional information is available from the board vendor; for 4508 instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard) 4509 or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features" 4510 when choosing the configuration, i. e. 4511 4512 make TQM823L_config 4513 - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support 4514 4515 make TQM823L_LCD_config 4516 - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD 4517 4518 etc. 4519 4520 4521Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot 4522images ready for download to / installation on your system: 4523 4524- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image 4525- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format 4526- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format 4527 4528By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved 4529in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change 4530this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory: 4531 45321. Add O= to the make command line invocations: 4533 4534 make O=/tmp/build distclean 4535 make O=/tmp/build NAME_config 4536 make O=/tmp/build all 4537 45382. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location: 4539 4540 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 4541 make distclean 4542 make NAME_config 4543 make all 4544 4545Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment 4546variable. 4547 4548 4549Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so 4550for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of 4551native "make". 4552 4553 4554If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need 4555to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these 4556steps: 4557 45581. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel 4559 "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples. 4560 Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order. 45612. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any 4562 files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least 4563 the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds". 45643. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for 4565 your board 45663. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new 4567 directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. 45684. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name. 45695. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file 4570 to be installed on your target system. 45716. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. 4572 [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] 4573 4574 4575Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: 4576============================================================== 4577 4578If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board 4579or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to 4580provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes 4581the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest 4582official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources. 4583 4584But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- 4585cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of 4586the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, 4587just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot 4588for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can 4589select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE' 4590environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools 4591you can type 4592 4593 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 4594 4595or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type 4596 4597 CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL 4598 4599When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build 4600U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by 4601setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target 4602built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and 4603<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default 4604location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment 4605variable. For example: 4606 4607 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 4608 export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log 4609 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 4610 4611With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build, 4612log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean 4613during the whole build process. 4614 4615 4616See also "U-Boot Porting Guide" below. 4617 4618 4619Monitor Commands - Overview: 4620============================ 4621 4622go - start application at address 'addr' 4623run - run commands in an environment variable 4624bootm - boot application image from memory 4625bootp - boot image via network using BootP/TFTP protocol 4626bootz - boot zImage from memory 4627tftpboot- boot image via network using TFTP protocol 4628 and env variables "ipaddr" and "serverip" 4629 (and eventually "gatewayip") 4630tftpput - upload a file via network using TFTP protocol 4631rarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol 4632diskboot- boot from IDE devicebootd - boot default, i.e., run 'bootcmd' 4633loads - load S-Record file over serial line 4634loadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode) 4635md - memory display 4636mm - memory modify (auto-incrementing) 4637nm - memory modify (constant address) 4638mw - memory write (fill) 4639cp - memory copy 4640cmp - memory compare 4641crc32 - checksum calculation 4642i2c - I2C sub-system 4643sspi - SPI utility commands 4644base - print or set address offset 4645printenv- print environment variables 4646setenv - set environment variables 4647saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage 4648protect - enable or disable FLASH write protection 4649erase - erase FLASH memory 4650flinfo - print FLASH memory information 4651nand - NAND memory operations (see doc/README.nand) 4652bdinfo - print Board Info structure 4653iminfo - print header information for application image 4654coninfo - print console devices and informations 4655ide - IDE sub-system 4656loop - infinite loop on address range 4657loopw - infinite write loop on address range 4658mtest - simple RAM test 4659icache - enable or disable instruction cache 4660dcache - enable or disable data cache 4661reset - Perform RESET of the CPU 4662echo - echo args to console 4663version - print monitor version 4664help - print online help 4665? - alias for 'help' 4666 4667 4668Monitor Commands - Detailed Description: 4669======================================== 4670 4671TODO. 4672 4673For now: just type "help <command>". 4674 4675 4676Environment Variables: 4677====================== 4678 4679U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which 4680can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. 4681 4682Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using 4683"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv" 4684without a value can be used to delete a variable from the 4685environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are 4686working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the 4687environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided. 4688 4689Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables. 4690 4691List of environment variables (most likely not complete): 4692 4693 baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE 4694 4695 bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 4696 4697 bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 4698 4699 bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image 4700 4701 bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP 4702 4703 bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 4704 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 4705 a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed 4706 for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size" 4707 environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is 4708 also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux 4709 kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and 4710 bootm_mapsize. 4711 4712 bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel. 4713 This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it 4714 defines the size of the memory region starting at base 4715 address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel 4716 during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used 4717 as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is 4718 used otherwise. 4719 4720 bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 4721 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 4722 a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region 4723 allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low" 4724 environment variable. 4725 4726 updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used 4727 by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to 4728 documentation in doc/README.update for more details. 4729 4730 autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'), 4731 "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the 4732 configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to 4733 load any image using TFTP 4734 4735 autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp", 4736 "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will 4737 be automatically started (by internally calling 4738 "bootm") 4739 4740 If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the 4741 "bootm" command will be copied to the load address 4742 (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started. 4743 This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary 4744 data. 4745 4746 fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the 4747 flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot. 4748 For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory 4749 at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel 4750 only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you 4751 may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the 4752 device tree blob be copied to the maximum address 4753 of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can 4754 access it during the boot procedure. 4755 4756 If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then 4757 the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this 4758 to work it must reside in writable memory, have 4759 sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to 4760 add the information it needs into it, and the memory 4761 must be accessible by the kernel. 4762 4763 fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened 4764 device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is 4765 defined. 4766 4767 i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 4768 if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast 4769 mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in 4770 initialization code. So, for changes to be effective 4771 it must be saved and board must be reset. 4772 4773 initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images: 4774 If this variable is not set, initrd images will be 4775 copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this 4776 is usually what you want since it allows for 4777 maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to 4778 make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the 4779 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment 4780 variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0". 4781 Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper 4782 address to use (U-Boot will still check that it 4783 does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data). 4784 4785 For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB 4786 RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux, 4787 you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of 4788 the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make 4789 sure that the initrd image is placed in the first 4790 12 MB as well - this can be done with 4791 4792 setenv initrd_high 00c00000 4793 4794 If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an 4795 indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal 4796 for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash 4797 memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the 4798 ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the 4799 boot time on your system, but requires that this 4800 feature is supported by your Linux kernel. 4801 4802 ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command 4803 4804 loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp", 4805 "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot" 4806 4807 loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 4808 4809 serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command 4810 4811 bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 4812 4813 bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 4814 4815 bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 4816 4817 ethprime - controls which interface is used first. 4818 4819 ethact - controls which interface is currently active. 4820 For example you can do the following 4821 4822 => setenv ethact FEC 4823 => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC 4824 => setenv ethact SCC 4825 => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC 4826 4827 ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all 4828 available network interfaces. 4829 It just stays at the currently selected interface. 4830 4831 netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will 4832 either succeed or fail without retrying. 4833 When set to "once" the network operation will 4834 fail when all the available network interfaces 4835 are tried once without success. 4836 Useful on scripts which control the retry operation 4837 themselves. 4838 4839 npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode 4840 4841 silent_linux - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by 4842 changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be 4843 made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If 4844 unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console 4845 is silent. 4846 4847 tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's 4848 UDP source port. 4849 4850 tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP 4851 destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69. 4852 4853 tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set, 4854 we use the TFTP server's default block size 4855 4856 tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli- 4857 seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines 4858 when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to 4859 be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds. 4860 Lowering this value may make downloads succeed 4861 faster in networks with high packet loss rates or 4862 with unreliable TFTP servers. 4863 4864 vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over 4865 Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q 4866 VLAN tagged frames. 4867 4868The following image location variables contain the location of images 4869used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is 4870not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment 4871variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP 4872server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be 4873loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR 4874flash or offset in NAND flash. 4875 4876*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some 4877boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some 4878boards use these variables for other purposes. 4879 4880Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location 4881----- --------- ----------- -------------- 4882u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr 4883Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr 4884device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr 4885ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr 4886 4887The following environment variables may be used and automatically 4888updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"), 4889depending the information provided by your boot server: 4890 4891 bootfile - see above 4892 dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server 4893 dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server 4894 gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use 4895 hostname - Target hostname 4896 ipaddr - see above 4897 netmask - Subnet Mask 4898 rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server 4899 serverip - see above 4900 4901 4902There are two special Environment Variables: 4903 4904 serial# - contains hardware identification information such 4905 as type string and/or serial number 4906 ethaddr - Ethernet address 4907 4908These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of 4909the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables 4910once they have been set once. 4911 4912 4913Further special Environment Variables: 4914 4915 ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed 4916 with the "version" command. This variable is 4917 readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE). 4918 4919 4920Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take 4921only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-). 4922 4923 4924Callback functions for environment variables: 4925--------------------------------------------- 4926 4927For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change 4928when their values are changed. This functionailty allows functions to 4929be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or 4930deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side 4931effect to happen or for the change to be rejected. 4932 4933The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the 4934U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code. 4935 4936These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The 4937static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC 4938in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of 4939associations. The list must be in the following format: 4940 4941 entry = variable_name[:callback_name] 4942 list = entry[,list] 4943 4944If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted. 4945Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list. 4946 4947Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable 4948with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will 4949override any association in the static list. You can define 4950CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the 4951".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. 4952 4953 4954Command Line Parsing: 4955===================== 4956 4957There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot: 4958the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell: 4959 4960Old, simple command line parser: 4961-------------------------------- 4962 4963- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands) 4964- several commands on one line, separated by ';' 4965- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax 4966- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\', 4967 for example: 4968 setenv bootcmd bootm \${address} 4969- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example: 4970 setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off' 4971 4972Hush shell: 4973----------- 4974 4975- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like 4976 if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done, 4977 until...do...done, ... 4978- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv 4979 commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax 4980 "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run" 4981 command 4982 4983General rules: 4984-------------- 4985 4986(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run" 4987 command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and 4988 one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be 4989 executed anyway. 4990 4991(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e. 4992 calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing 4993 command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining 4994 variables are not executed. 4995 4996Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces: 4997======================================= 4998 4999Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports 5000such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a 5001"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows: 5002 5003Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding 5004MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0), 5005"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ... 5006 5007If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance 5008in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon- 5009ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment 5010variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means: 5011 5012o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the 5013 environment, the SROM's address is used. 5014 5015o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the 5016 environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is 5017 used. 5018 5019o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and 5020 both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used. 5021 5022o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the 5023 addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a 5024 warning is printed. 5025 5026o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error 5027 is raised. 5028 5029If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses 5030will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This 5031may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable. 5032The naming convention is as follows: 5033"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc. 5034 5035Image Formats: 5036============== 5037 5038U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) 5039images in two formats: 5040 5041New uImage format (FIT) 5042----------------------- 5043 5044Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar 5045to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple 5046components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by 5047SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory. 5048 5049 5050Old uImage format 5051----------------- 5052 5053Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything, 5054preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for 5055details; basically, the header defines the following image properties: 5056 5057* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, 5058 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks, 5059 LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY; 5060 Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS, 5061 INTEGRITY). 5062* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, 5063 IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; 5064 Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC). 5065* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2) 5066* Load Address 5067* Entry Point 5068* Image Name 5069* Image Timestamp 5070 5071The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header 5072and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by 5073CRC32 checksums. 5074 5075 5076Linux Support: 5077============== 5078 5079Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application 5080easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of 5081U-Boot. 5082 5083U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some 5084special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any 5085"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image; 5086instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation 5087serves several purposes: 5088 5089- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone 5090 applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the 5091 Flash memory footprint) 5092 5093- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because 5094 lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot 5095 5096- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd" 5097 images; of course this also means that different kernel images can 5098 be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't 5099 have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just 5100 change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the 5101 software is easier now. 5102 5103 5104Linux HOWTO: 5105============ 5106 5107Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems: 5108--------------------------------------- 5109 5110U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to 5111configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware 5112(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to 5113Linux :-). 5114 5115But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot). 5116 5117Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance 5118include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board 5119Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h, 5120and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value 5121as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR. 5122 5123 5124Configuring the Linux kernel: 5125----------------------------- 5126 5127No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root 5128device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system. 5129 5130 5131Building a Linux Image: 5132----------------------- 5133 5134With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are 5135not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target 5136"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by 5137U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target, 5138which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a 5139100% compatible format. 5140 5141Example: 5142 5143 make TQM850L_config 5144 make oldconfig 5145 make dep 5146 make uImage 5147 5148The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to 5149encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information, 5150CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing: 5151 5152* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format): 5153 5154* convert the kernel into a raw binary image: 5155 5156 ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \ 5157 -R .note -R .comment \ 5158 -S vmlinux linux.bin 5159 5160* compress the binary image: 5161 5162 gzip -9 linux.bin 5163 5164* package compressed binary image for U-Boot: 5165 5166 mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \ 5167 -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \ 5168 -d linux.bin.gz uImage 5169 5170 5171The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use 5172with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or 5173combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64 5174byte header containing information about target architecture, 5175operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time 5176stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc. 5177 5178"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and 5179print the header information, or to build new images. 5180 5181In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information 5182contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes 5183checksum verification: 5184 5185 tools/mkimage -l image 5186 -l ==> list image header information 5187 5188The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image 5189from a "data file" which is used as image payload: 5190 5191 tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \ 5192 -n name -d data_file image 5193 -A ==> set architecture to 'arch' 5194 -O ==> set operating system to 'os' 5195 -T ==> set image type to 'type' 5196 -C ==> set compression type 'comp' 5197 -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex) 5198 -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex) 5199 -n ==> set image name to 'name' 5200 -d ==> use image data from 'datafile' 5201 5202Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load 5203address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the 5204kernel version: 5205 5206- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C, 5207- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000. 5208 5209So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read: 5210 5211 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5212 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \ 5213 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \ 5214 > examples/uImage.TQM850L 5215 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5216 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5217 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5218 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5219 Load Address: 0x00000000 5220 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5221 5222To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption): 5223 5224 -> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L 5225 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5226 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5227 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5228 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5229 Load Address: 0x00000000 5230 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5231 5232NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade 5233speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this 5234needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not 5235need to be uncompressed: 5236 5237 -> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz 5238 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5239 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \ 5240 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \ 5241 > examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed 5242 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5243 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5244 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) 5245 Data Size: 792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB 5246 Load Address: 0x00000000 5247 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5248 5249 5250Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file 5251when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk: 5252 5253 -> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \ 5254 > -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \ 5255 > -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd 5256 Image Name: Simple Ramdisk Image 5257 Created: Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000 5258 Image Type: PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed) 5259 Data Size: 566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB 5260 Load Address: 0x00000000 5261 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5262 5263The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i" 5264option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d" 5265option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file" 5266from the image: 5267 5268 tools/dumpimage -i image -p position data_file 5269 -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file', \ 5270 indexed by 'position' 5271 5272 5273Installing a Linux Image: 5274------------------------- 5275 5276To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface, 5277you must convert the image to S-Record format: 5278 5279 objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec 5280 5281The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot 5282image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to 5283address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to 5284specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads' 5285command. 5286 5287Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the 5288TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank): 5289 5290 => erase 40100000 401FFFFF 5291 5292 .......... done 5293 Erased 8 sectors 5294 5295 => loads 40100000 5296 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5297 ~>examples/image.srec 5298 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ... 5299 ... 5300 15989 15990 15991 15992 5301 [file transfer complete] 5302 [connected] 5303 ## Start Addr = 0x00000000 5304 5305 5306You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command; 5307this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data 5308corruption happened: 5309 5310 => imi 40100000 5311 5312 ## Checking Image at 40100000 ... 5313 Image Name: 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L 5314 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5315 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327 kB = 0 MB 5316 Load Address: 00000000 5317 Entry Point: 0000000c 5318 Verifying Checksum ...

Usually these programs 5464 will install their own set of exception handlers, device 5465 drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot 5466 expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU. 5467 "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their 5468 parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is 5469 being started. 5470 "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS 5471 (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like 5472 RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want 5473 to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot 5474 server provides just a single image file, but you want to get 5475 for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image. 5476 5477 "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each 5478 image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network 5479 byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0". 5480 Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by 5481 one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to 5482 a multiple of 4 bytes). 5483 5484 "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like 5485 U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to 5486 flash memory. 5487 5488 "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by 5489 U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially 5490 useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush) 5491 as command interpreter. 5492 5493Booting the Linux zImage: 5494------------------------- 5495 5496On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done 5497using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same 5498as the syntax of "bootm" command. 5499 5500Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply 5501kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the 5502address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following 5503format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>". 5504 5505 5506Standalone HOWTO: 5507================= 5508 5509One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and 5510run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of 5511U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services. 5512 5513Two simple examples are included with the sources: 5514 5515"Hello World" Demo: 5516------------------- 5517 5518'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo 5519application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot. 5520It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it 5521like that: 5522 5523 => loads 5524 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5525 ~>examples/hello_world.srec 5526 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 5527 [file transfer complete] 5528 [connected] 5529 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 5530 5531 => go 40004 Hello World!

The application can be 5552controlled by the following keys: 5553 5554 ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers 5555 b - enable interrupts and start timer 5556 e - stop timer and disable interrupts 5557 q - quit application 5558 5559 => loads 5560 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5561 ~>examples/timer.srec 5562 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 5563 [file transfer complete] 5564 [connected] 5565 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 5566 5567 => go 40004 5568 ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ... 5569 TIMERS=0xfff00980 5570 Using timer 1 5571 tgcr @ 0xfff00980, tmr @ 0xfff00990, trr @ 0xfff00994, tcr @ 0xfff00998, tcn @ 0xfff0099c, ter @ 0xfff009b0 5572 5573Hit 'b': 5574 [q, b, e, ?] Set interval 1000000 us 5575 Enabling timer 5576Hit '?': 5577 [q, b, e, ?] ........ 5578 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0xef6, ter=0x0 5579Hit '?': 5580 [q, b, e, ?] . 5581 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x2ad4, ter=0x0 5582Hit '?': 5583 [q, b, e, ?] . 5584 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x1efc, ter=0x0 5585Hit '?': 5586 [q, b, e, ?] . 5587 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x169d, ter=0x0 5588Hit 'e': 5589 [q, b, e, ?] ...Stopping timer 5590Hit 'q': 5591 [q, b, e, ?] ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0 5592 5593 5594Minicom warning: 5595================ 5596 5597Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the 5598"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd) 5599consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under 5600Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and 5601especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and 5602use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See 5603http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3. 5604for help with kermit. 5605 5606 5607Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this 5608configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section: 5609 5610 Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red.

This file has to be installed and patched manually: 5627 5628 # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include 5629 # mkdir powerpc 5630 # ln -s powerpc machine 5631 # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h 5632 # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST 5633 5634Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native 5635and U-Boot include files. 5636 5637Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a 5638stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel 5639proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source 5640tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the 5641meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz 5642 5643 5644Implementation Internals: 5645========================= 5646 5647The following is not intended to be a complete description of every 5648implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the 5649inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom 5650hardware. 5651 5652 5653Initial Stack, Global Data: 5654--------------------------- 5655 5656The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot 5657starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to 5658system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet). 5659This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS 5660is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working 5661at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation 5662options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU 5663models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and 5664MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be 5665locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc. 5666 5667 Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the 5668 U-Boot mailing list: 5669 5670 Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)? 5671 From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com> 5672 Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET) 5673 ... 5674 5675 Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it 5676 is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not 5677 require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness 5678 is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of 5679 necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's 5680 beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you 5681 can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and 5682 operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals. 5683 5684 OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It 5685 is another option for the system designer to use as an 5686 initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either 5687 option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your 5688 board designers haven't used it for something that would 5689 cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not 5690 used. 5691 5692 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere 5693 with your processor/board/system design. The default value 5694 you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in 5695 walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger 5696 than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set 5697 it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources 5698 that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in 5699 start.S has been around a while and should work as is when 5700 you get the config right. 5701 5702 -Chris Hallinan 5703 DS4.COM, Inc. 5704 5705It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C 5706code for the initialization procedures: 5707 5708* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt 5709 to write it. 5710 5711* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized 5712 as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali- 5713 zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM). 5714 5715* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like 5716 that. 5717 5718Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use 5719normal global data to share information beween the code. But it 5720turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly 5721simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all 5722functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_ 5723functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of 5724the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we 5725place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we 5726reserve for this purpose. 5727 5728When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the 5729relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by 5730GCC's implementation. 5731 5732For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use: 5733 R1: stack pointer 5734 R2: reserved for system use 5735 R3-R4: parameter passing and return values 5736 R5-R10: parameter passing 5737 R13: small data area pointer 5738 R30: GOT pointer 5739 R31: frame pointer 5740 5741 (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12 5742 is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when 5743 going back and forth between asm and C) 5744 5745 ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data 5746 5747 Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the 5748 address of the global data structure is known at compile time), 5749 but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat 5750 smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on 5751 average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image, 5752 624 text + 127 data). 5753 5754On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here: 5755 http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface 5756 5757 ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data 5758 5759On ARM, the following registers are used: 5760 5761 R0: function argument word/integer result 5762 R1-R3: function argument word 5763 R9: platform specific 5764 R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled) 5765 R11: argument (frame) pointer 5766 R12: temporary workspace 5767 R13: stack pointer 5768 R14: link register 5769 R15: program counter 5770 5771 ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data 5772 5773 Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported. 5774 5775On Nios II, the ABI is documented here: 5776 http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf 5777 5778 ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data 5779 5780 Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp 5781 to access small data sections, so gp is free. 5782 5783On NDS32, the following registers are used: 5784 5785 R0-R1: argument/return 5786 R2-R5: argument 5787 R15: temporary register for assembler 5788 R16: trampoline register 5789 R28: frame pointer (FP) 5790 R29: global pointer (GP) 5791 R30: link register (LP) 5792 R31: stack pointer (SP) 5793 PC: program counter (PC) 5794 5795 ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data 5796 5797NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope, 5798or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much. 5799 5800Memory Management: 5801------------------ 5802 5803U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the 5804MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection. 5805 5806The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory 5807controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each 5808memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several 5809physical memory banks. 5810 5811U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on 5812TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After 5813booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself 5814to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some 5815memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN 5816configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board 5817Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward). 5818 5819Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB 5820of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF). 5821 5822So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like 5823this: 5824 5825 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code 5826 : 5827 0x0000 1FFF 5828 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use 5829 : 5830 : 5831 5832 : 5833 : 5834 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward) 5835 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data 5836 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena 5837 : 5838 0x00FD FFFF 5839 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code 5840 ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer 5841 ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset) 5842 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM] 5843 5844 5845System Initialization: 5846---------------------- 5847 5848In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point 5849(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset 5850configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory. 5851To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address. 5852To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!) 5853initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs 5854which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked 5855part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, 5856the caches and the SIU. 5857 5858Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a 5859preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries 5860(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash 5861on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is 5862programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a 5863simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM 5864banks. 5865 5866When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of 5867different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first 5868bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address 58690x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create 5870contiguous memory starting from 0. 5871 5872Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area 5873and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board 5874Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM 5875pages, and the final stack is set up. 5876 5877Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment; 5878until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are 5879running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a 5880new address in RAM. 5881 5882 5883U-Boot Porting Guide: 5884---------------------- 5885 5886[Based on messages by Jerry Van Baren in the U-Boot-Users mailing 5887list, October 2002] 5888 5889 5890int main(int argc, char *argv[]) 5891{ 5892 sighandler_t no_more_time; 5893 5894 signal(SIGALRM, no_more_time); 5895 alarm(PROJECT_DEADLINE - toSec (3 * WEEK)); 5896 5897 if (available_money > available_manpower) { 5898 Pay consultant to port U-Boot; 5899 return 0; 5900 } 5901 5902 Download latest U-Boot source; 5903 5904 Subscribe to u-boot mailing list; 5905 5906 if (clueless) 5907 email("Hi, I am new to U-Boot, how do I get started?"); 5908 5909 while (learning) { 5910 Read the README file in the top level directory; 5911 Read http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/Manual; 5912 Read applicable doc/*.README; 5913 Read the source, Luke; 5914 /* find . -name "*.[chS]" | xargs grep -i <keyword> */ 5915 } 5916 5917 if (available_money > toLocalCurrency ($2500)) 5918 Buy a BDI3000; 5919 else 5920 Add a lot of aggravation and time; 5921 5922 if (a similar board exists) { /* hopefully... */ 5923 cp -a board/<similar> board/<myboard> 5924 cp include/configs/<similar>.h include/configs/<myboard>.h 5925 } else { 5926 Create your own board support subdirectory; 5927 Create your own board include/configs/<myboard>.h file; 5928 } 5929 Edit new board/<myboard> files 5930 Edit new include/configs/<myboard>.h 5931 5932 while (!accepted) { 5933 while (!running) { 5934 do { 5935 Add / modify source code; 5936 } until (compiles); 5937 Debug; 5938 if (clueless) 5939 email("Hi, I am having problems..."); 5940 } 5941 Send patch file to the U-Boot email list; 5942 if (reasonable critiques) 5943 Incorporate improvements from email list code review; 5944 else 5945 Defend code as written; 5946 } 5947 5948 return 0; 5949} 5950 5951void no_more_time (int sig) 5952{ 5953 hire_a_guru(); 5954} 5955 5956 5957Coding Standards: 5958----------------- 5959 5960All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel 5961coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script 5962"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory. 5963 5964Source files originating from a different project (for example the 5965MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not 5966reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those 5967sources. 5968 5969Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in 5970Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//) 5971in your code. 5972 5973Please also stick to the following formatting rules: 5974- remove any trailing white space 5975- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces 5976- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds 5977- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files 5978- do not add trailing empty lines to source files 5979 5980Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned 5981with a request to reformat the changes. 5982 5983 5984Submitting Patches: 5985------------------- 5986 5987Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to 5988establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules 5989may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff. 5990 5991Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details. 5992 5993Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>; 5994see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot 5995 5996When you send a patch, please include the following information with 5997it: 5998 5999* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes 6000 this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the 6001 patch actually fixes something. 6002 6003* For new features: a description of the feature and your 6004 implementation. 6005 6006* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch) 6007 6008* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file 6009 6010* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a 6011 maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too. 6012 6013* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to 6014 document these in the README file. 6015 6016* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly* 6017 recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the 6018 "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to 6019 the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems 6020 with some other mail clients. 6021 6022 If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of 6023 diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of 6024 GNU diff. 6025 6026 The current directory when running this command shall be the parent 6027 directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that 6028 your patch includes sufficient directory information for the 6029 affected files). 6030 6031 We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged, 6032 and compressed attachments must not be used. 6033 6034* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several 6035 files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file. 6036 6037* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be 6038 submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset. 6039 6040 6041Notes: 6042 6043* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched 6044 source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported 6045 for any of the boards. 6046 6047* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch 6048 containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be 6049 returned with a request to re-formatting / split it. 6050 6051* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not 6052 add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful! 6053 When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only 6054 (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature 6055 disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your 6056 modification. 6057 6058* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the 6059 u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are 6060 reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches 6061 bigger than the size limit should be avoided. 6062
