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

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

931		support you can write:
932
933		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
934		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
935
936	Other Commands:
937		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
938
939	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
940		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
941		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
942		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
943		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
944		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
945		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
946		initial stack and some data.
947
948
949		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
950
951- Regular expression support:
952		CONFIG_REGEX
953		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
954		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
955		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
956		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
957
958- Device tree:
959		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
960		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
961		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
962		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
963		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
964		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
965
966		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
967		be done using one of the two options below:
968
969		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
970		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
971		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
972		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
973		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
974		the global data structure as gd->blob.
975
976		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
977		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
978		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
979		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
980
981			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
982
983		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
984		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
985		still use the individual files if you need something more
986		exotic.
987
988- Watchdog:
989		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
990		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
991		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
992		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
993		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
994		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
995		available, then no further board specific code should
996		be needed to use it.
997
998		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
999		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1000		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1001		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1002
1003- U-Boot Version:
1004		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1005		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1006		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1007		version as printed by the "version" command.
1008		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1009		next reset.
1010
1011- Real-Time Clock:
1012
1013		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1014		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1015		following options:
1016
1017		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1018		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1019		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1020		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1021		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1022		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1023		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1024		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC

1302		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1303		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1304		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1305		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1306		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1307		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1308		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1309		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1310		a Linux host by
1311		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1312		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1313		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1314		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1315
1316			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1317			Define this to build a UDC device
1318

1325			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1326			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1327			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1328			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1329			speed.
1330
1331			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1332			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1333			be set to usbtty.
1334
1335			mpc8xx:
1336				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH

1344		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1345		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1346		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1347		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1348		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1349		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1350
1351			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1352			Define this string as the name of your company for
1353			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"

1364
1365			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1366			Define this as the unique Product ID
1367			for your device
1368			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF

1371		In this case you can enable following config in BoardName.h:
1372			CONFIG_USB_CABLE_CHECK
1373			This enables function definition:
1374			- usb_cable_connected() in include/usb.h
1375			Implementation of this function is board-specific.
1376
1377- ULPI Layer Support:
1378		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1379		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1380		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1381		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1382		viewport is supported.
1383		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1384		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1385		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the

1412		U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB.  This command
1413		requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1414		set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1415
1416		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1417		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.

1425		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1426		one that would help mostly the developer.
1427
1428		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1429		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1430		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1431		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1432		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1433
1434		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1435		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1436		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1437		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1438		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1439		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1440
1441- Journaling Flash filesystem support:

1453
1454		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1455		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1456		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1457		have not defined a custom partition
1458
1459- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1460		CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1461
1462		Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1463		file in FAT formatted partition.
1464
1465		This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1466		user to write files to FAT.
1467
1468CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1469		CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1470
1471		Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot

1521		(i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1522
1523		- "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1524		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1525
1526
1527		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1528		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1529		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1530		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1531
1532		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1533		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1534		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1535		support, and should also define these other macros:
1536
1537			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1538			CONFIG_VIDEO
1539			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1540			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1541			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1542			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1543			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1544			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1545
1546		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1547		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1548		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1549		description of this variable.
1550
1551		CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
1552
1553		Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1554		are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1555		driver.
1556
1557
1558- Keyboard Support:
1559		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1560
1561		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1562		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1563		defined in your board-specific files.
1564		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1565
1566- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1567
1568		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1569		display); also select one of the supported displays
1570		by defining one of these:
1571
1572		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1573
1574			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1575
1576		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1577
1578			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1579
1580		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1581
1582			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1583			Active, color, single scan.
1584
1585		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1586
1587			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1588			Active, color, single scan.
1589
1590		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1591
1592			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1593			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1594
1595		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1596
1597			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1598			Active, color, single scan.
1599
1600		CONFIG_HLD1045
1601
1602			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1603			Active, color, single scan.
1604
1605		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1606
1607			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1608			or
1609			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1610			or
1611			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1612
1613			320x240. Black & white.
1614
1615		Normally display is black on white background; define
1616		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1617
1618		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1619
1620		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1621		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1622		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1623		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1624		a per-section basis.
1625
1626		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1627
1628		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1629		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1630		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1631		is slow.
1632
1633		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1634
1635		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1636
1637		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1638
1639		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1640		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1641
1642- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1643
1644		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1645		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1646		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1647		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1648		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1649		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1650		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1651		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1652
1653		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1654
1655		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1656		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1657		(see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses).
1658		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1659		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1660		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1661		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1662		there is no need to set this option.
1663
1664		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1665
1666		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1667		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1668		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1669		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1670		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1671		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1672
1673		Example:
1674		setenv splashpos m,m
1675			=> image at center of screen
1676
1677		setenv splashpos 30,20
1678			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1679
1680		setenv splashpos -10,m
1681			=> vertically centered image
1682			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1683
1684- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1685
1686		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1687		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1688		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1689
1690- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1691
1692		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1693		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1694		bmp command.
1695
1696- Do compresssing for memory range:
1697		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1698
1699		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1700		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1701
1702- Compression support:
1703		CONFIG_GZIP
1704
1705		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1706
1707		CONFIG_BZIP2
1708
1709		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1710		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1711		compressed images are supported.
1712
1713		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1714		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1715		be at least 4MB.
1716
1717		CONFIG_LZMA
1718
1719		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1720		images is included.
1721
1722		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1723		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1724		formula:
1725
1726			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1727
1728		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1729		and Literal pos bits.
1730
1731		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1732		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1733		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1734		a very small buffer.
1735
1736		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1737		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1738		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1739
1740		CONFIG_LZO
1741
1742		If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
1743		is included.
1744
1745- MII/PHY support:
1746		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1747
1748		The address of PHY on MII bus.
1749
1750		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1751
1752		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1753
1754		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
1755
1756		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1757		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1758
1759		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1760
1761		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1762		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1763		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1764		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1765
1766		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1767
1768		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1769		command issued before MII status register can be read
1770
1771- Ethernet address:
1772		CONFIG_ETHADDR
1773		CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
1774		CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
1775		CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
1776		CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
1777		CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
1778
1779		Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1780		for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
1781		is not determined automatically.
1782
1783- IP address:
1784		CONFIG_IPADDR
1785
1786		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1787		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1788		determined through e.g. bootp.
1789		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
1790
1791- Server IP address:
1792		CONFIG_SERVERIP
1793
1794		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1795		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1796		(Environment variable "serverip")
1797
1798		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1799
1800		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1801		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1802
1803- Gateway IP address:
1804		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
1805
1806		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1807		default router where packets to other networks are
1808		sent to.
1809		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
1810
1811- Subnet mask:
1812		CONFIG_NETMASK
1813
1814		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
1815		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
1816		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
1817		forwarded through a router.
1818		(Environment variable "netmask")
1819
1820- Multicast TFTP Mode:
1821		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
1822
1823		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1824		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
1825		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
1826		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1827		multicast group.
1828
1829- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1830		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1831
1832		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1833		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1834		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1835		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1836		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1837		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1838		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1839		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
1840		following delays are inserted then:
1841
1842		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
1843		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
1844		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
1845		4th and following
1846		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
1847
1848- DHCP Advanced Options:
1849		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1850		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1851
1852		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
1853		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
1854		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
1855		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
1856		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
1857		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
1858		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1859		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
1860		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
1861		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
1862		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
1863		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
1864		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1865
1866		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1867		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1868
1869		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1870		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1871		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
1872		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1873		is not available.
1874
1875		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1876		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1877		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1878		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1879		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
1880		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
1881		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1882		is defined.
1883
1884		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1885		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1886		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
1887		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
1888		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
1889		option 12 to the DHCP server.
1890
1891		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1892
1893		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1894		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1895		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1896		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1897		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1898		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1899		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1900		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1901		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1902		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1903		this delay.
1904
1905 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1906		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1907		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1908		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1909		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1910
1911		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
1912
1913 - CDP Options:
1914		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
1915
1916		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
1917
1918		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
1919
1920		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
1921		of the device.
1922
1923		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1924
1925		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1926		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
1927		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
1928
1929		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
1930
1931		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
1932		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
1933
1934		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
1935
1936		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
1937
1938		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
1939
1940		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
1941
1942		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
1943
1944		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
1945
1946		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
1947
1948		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
1949		device in .1 of milliwatts.
1950
1951		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
1952
1953		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
1954
1955- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
1956
1957		Several configurations allow to display the current
1958		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
1959		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
1960		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
1961		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
1962		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
1963		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
1964		feature in U-Boot.
1965
1966- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
1967
1968		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
1969		on those systems that support this (optional)
1970		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
1971
1972- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
1973
1974		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
1975		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
1976		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
1977		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
1978		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
1979		interface.
1980
1981		ported i2c driver to the new framework:
1982		- drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c:
1983		  - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define
1984		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE
1985		    for defining speed and slave address
1986		  - activate second bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS2 define
1987		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_2 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_2
1988		    for defining speed and slave address
1989		  - activate third bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS3 define
1990		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_3 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_3
1991		    for defining speed and slave address
1992		  - activate fourth bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS4 define
1993		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_4 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_4
1994		    for defining speed and slave address
1995
1996		- drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c:
1997		  - activate i2c driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_FSL
1998		    define CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_OFFSET for setting the register
1999		    offset CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SPEED for the i2c speed and
2000		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SLAVE for the slave addr of the first
2001		    bus.
2002		  - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define
2003		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset
2004		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SPEED for the speed and
2005		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SLAVE for the slave address of the
2006		    second bus.
2007
2008		- drivers/i2c/tegra_i2c.c:
2009		  - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_TEGRA
2010		  - This driver adds 4 i2c buses with a fix speed from
2011		    100000 and the slave addr 0!
2012
2013		- drivers/i2c/ppc4xx_i2c.c
2014		  - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX
2015		  - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX_CH0 activate hardware channel 0
2016		  - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX_CH1 activate hardware channel 1
2017
2018		- drivers/i2c/i2c_mxc.c
2019		  - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MXC
2020		  - define speed for bus 1 with CONFIG_SYS_MXC_I2C1_SPEED
2021		  - define slave for bus 1 with CONFIG_SYS_MXC_I2C1_SLAVE

2024		  - define speed for bus 3 with CONFIG_SYS_MXC_I2C3_SPEED
2025		  - define slave for bus 3 with CONFIG_SYS_MXC_I2C3_SLAVE
2026		If thoses defines are not set, default value is 100000
2027		for speed, and 0 for slave.
2028
2029		- drivers/i2c/rcar_i2c.c:
2030		  - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RCAR
2031		  - This driver adds 4 i2c buses
2032
2033		  - CONFIG_SYS_RCAR_I2C0_BASE for setting the register channel 0
2034		  - CONFIG_SYS_RCAR_I2C0_SPEED for for the speed channel 0

2042
2043		additional defines:
2044
2045		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2046		Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
2047		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2048		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2049		omit this define.
2050
2051		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2052		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2053		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2054		omit this define.
2055
2056		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2057		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2058		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2059		define.
2060
2061		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2062		hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2063		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2064		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2065		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2066
2067		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2068					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2069					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2070					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2071					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2072					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \

2075					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2076					}
2077
2078		which defines
2079			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
2080			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
2081			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2

2087			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2088
2089		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2090
2091- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2092
2093		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2094		provides the following compelling advantages:
2095
2096		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2097		- approved multibus support
2098		- better i2c mux support
2099
2100		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2101
2102		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2103		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2104		for the selected CPU.
2105
2106		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2107		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2108		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2109		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2110		command line interface.
2111
2112		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2113
2114		There are several other quantities that must also be
2115		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2116
2117		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2118		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2119		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2120		the CPU's i2c node address).
2121
2122		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2123		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2124		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2125		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2126		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2127
2128		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2129
2130		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2131		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2132		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2133		commands until the slave device responds.
2134
2135		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2136
2137		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2138		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2139		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2140
2141		I2C_INIT
2142
2143		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2144		controller or configure ports.
2145
2146		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2147
2148		I2C_PORT
2149
2150		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2151		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2152		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2153
2154		I2C_ACTIVE
2155
2156		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2157		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2158		define can be null.
2159
2160		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2161
2162		I2C_TRISTATE
2163
2164		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2165		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2166		define can be null.
2167
2168		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2169
2170		I2C_READ
2171
2172		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2173		false if it is low.
2174
2175		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2176
2177		I2C_SDA(bit)
2178
2179		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2180		is false, it clears it (low).
2181
2182		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2183			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2184			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2185
2186		I2C_SCL(bit)
2187
2188		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2189		is false, it clears it (low).
2190
2191		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2192			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2193			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2194
2195		I2C_DELAY
2196
2197		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2198		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2199		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2200		like:
2201
2202		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2203
2204		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2205
2206		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2207		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2208		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2209		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2210
2211		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2212		the generic GPIO functions.
2213
2214		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2215
2216		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2217		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2218		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2219		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2220		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2221		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2222		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2223		is run early in the boot sequence.
2224
2225		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2226
2227		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2228		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2229		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2230		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2231		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2232		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2233		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2234		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2235
2236		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2237
2238		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2239		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2240		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2241
2242		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2243
2244		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2245		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2246		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2247		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2248
2249		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2250
2251		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2252		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2253		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2254		a 1D array of device addresses
2255
2256		e.g.
2257			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2258			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2259
2260		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2261
2262			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2263			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2264
2265		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2266
2267		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2268
2269		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2270		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2271
2272		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2273
2274		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2275		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2276
2277		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2278
2279		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2280		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2281
2282		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2283
2284		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2285		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2286		specified DTT device.
2287
2288		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2289
2290		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2291		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2292		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2293		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2294		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2295		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2296		the other.
2297
2298- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2299
2300		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2301		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2302		D/As on the SACSng board)
2303
2304		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2305
2306		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2307		only SH7757 is supported.
2308
2309		CONFIG_SPI_X
2310
2311		Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2312		(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2313
2314		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2315
2316		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2317		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2318		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2319		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2320		defined, the board configuration must define several
2321		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2322		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2323
2324		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2325
2326		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2327		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2328		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2329		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2330		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2331
2332		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2333
2334		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2335		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2336
2337- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2338
2339		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2340
2341		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2342
2343		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2344		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2345
2346		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2347
2348		Enables support for FPGA family.
2349		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2350
2351		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2352
2353		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2354
2355		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2356
2357		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2358
2359		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2360
2361		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2362		status by the configuration function. This option
2363		will require a board or device specific function to
2364		be written.
2365
2366		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2367
2368		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2369		configuration driver.
2370
2371		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2372		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2373
2374		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2375
2376		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2377		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2378		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2379		indicated a CRC error).
2380
2381		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2382
2383		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2384		after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2385		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2386		ms.
2387
2388		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2389
2390		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2391		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2392
2393		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2394
2395		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2396		200 ms.
2397
2398- Configuration Management:
2399		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2400
2401		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2402		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2403
2404- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2405
2406		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2407		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2408		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2409		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2410		protects these variables from casual modification by
2411		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2412		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2413		change this behaviour:
2414
2415		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2416		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2417		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2418		these parameters.
2419
2420		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2421		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2422		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2423		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2424		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2425		read-only.]
2426
2427		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2428		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2429		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2430		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2431
2432- Protected RAM:
2433		CONFIG_PRAM
2434
2435		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2436		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2437		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2438		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2439		this default value by defining an environment
2440		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2441		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2442		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2443		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2444		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2445		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2446		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2447
2448			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2449			saveenv
2450
2451		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2452		either, which results in a memory region that will
2453		not be affected by reboots.
2454
2455		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2456		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2457		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2458		following board configurations are known to be
2459		"pRAM-clean":
2460
2461			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2462			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2463			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2464
2465- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2466		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2467		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2468		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2469		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2470		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2471		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2472
2473- Error Recovery:
2474		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2475
2476		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2477		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2478		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2479		system where you want the system to reboot
2480		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2481		useful during development since you can try to debug
2482		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2483
2484		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2485
2486		This variable defines the number of retries for
2487		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2488		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2489		default value of 5 is used.
2490
2491		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2492
2493		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2494
2495		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2496
2497		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2498		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2499		try longer timeout such as
2500		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2501
2502- Command Interpreter:
2503		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2504
2505		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2506
2507		Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2508		for the "hush" shell.
2509
2510
2511		CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2512
2513		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2514		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2515		powerful command line syntax like
2516		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2517		constructs ("shell scripts").
2518
2519		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2520		with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2521
2522
2523		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2524
2525		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2526		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2527		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2528
2529	Note:
2530
2531		In the current implementation, the local variables
2532		space and global environment variables space are
2533		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2534		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2535		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2536		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2537		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2538
2539		Global environment variables are those you use
2540		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2541		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2542		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2543
2544		To store commands and special characters in a
2545		variable, please use double quotation marks
2546		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2547		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2548		symbols.
2549
2550- Commandline Editing and History:
2551		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2552
2553		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2554		commandline input operations
2555
2556- Default Environment:
2557		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2558
2559		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2560		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2561		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2562
2563		For example, place something like this in your
2564		board's config file:
2565
2566		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2567			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2568			"myvar2=value2\0"
2569
2570		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2571		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2572		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2573		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2574		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2575		You better know what you are doing here.
2576
2577		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2578		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2579		the environment like the "source" command or the
2580		boot command first.
2581
2582		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2583
2584		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2585		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2586		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2587
2588		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2589
2590		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2591		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2592		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2593		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2594		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2595
2596		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2597
2598		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2599		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2600		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2601
2602		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2603
2604		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2605		intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2606		that so that the environment is not available until
2607		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2608		this is instead controlled by the value of
2609		/config/load-environment.
2610
2611- DataFlash Support:
2612		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2613
2614		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2615		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2616		commands cp, md...
2617
2618- Serial Flash support
2619		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2620
2621		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2622		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2623
2624		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2625		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2626		commands.
2627
2628		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2629		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2630		flash is present on the system.
2631
2632		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2633		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2634		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2635		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2636
2637		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2638
2639		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2640		test ('sf test').
2641
2642		CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR		Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2643
2644		Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2645		support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2646
2647- SystemACE Support:
2648		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2649
2650		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2651		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2652		of the chip must also be defined in the
2653		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2654
2655		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2656		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2657
2658		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2659		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2660
2661- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2662		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2663
2664		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2665		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2666		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2667		number generator is used.
2668
2669		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2670		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
2671		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2672
2673		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2674		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2675		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2676		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2677		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2678		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2679		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2680
2681- Hashing support:
2682		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
2683
2684		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2685		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2686
2687		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
2688
2689		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2690		size a little.
2691
2692		CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2693		CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2694
2695		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2696		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2697
2698- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
2699		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
2700		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
2701		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
2702
2703		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
2704		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
2705		a boot from specific media.
2706
2707		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
2708		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
2709		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
2710		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
2711		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
2712
2713- Signing support:
2714		CONFIG_RSA
2715
2716		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
2717		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage/signature for more information.
2718
2719		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
2720		option.
2721
2722
2723- Show boot progress:
2724		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2725
2726		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2727		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2728		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2729		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2730		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2731		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2732
2733- Detailed boot stage timing
2734		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
2735		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
2736		of the boot process.
2737
2738		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
2739		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
2740		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
2741		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
2742		the limit, recording will stop.
2743
2744		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
2745		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
2746
2747		Timer summary in microseconds:
2748		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
2749			  0          0  reset
2750		  3,575,678  3,575,678  board_init_f start
2751		  3,575,695         17  arch_cpu_init A9
2752		  3,575,777         82  arch_cpu_init done
2753		  3,659,598     83,821  board_init_r start
2754		  3,910,375    250,777  main_loop
2755		 29,916,167 26,005,792  bootm_start
2756		 30,361,327    445,160  start_kernel
2757
2758		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
2759		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
2760		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
2761
2762		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
2763		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
2764		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
2765		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
2766		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
2767		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
2768		For example:
2769
2770		bootstage {
2771			154 {
2772				name = "board_init_f";
2773				mark = <3575678>;
2774			};
2775			170 {
2776				name = "lcd";
2777				accum = <33482>;
2778			};
2779		};
2780
2781		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

2935
2936- FIT image support:
2937		CONFIG_FIT
2938		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
2939
2940		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
2941		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
2942		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
2943		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
2944		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
2945		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
2946
2947		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
2948		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
2949		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See
2950		doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
2951
2952- Standalone program support:
2953		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
2954
2955		This option defines a board specific value for the
2956		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
2957		overwriting the architecture dependent default
2958		settings.
2959
2960- Frame Buffer Address:
2961		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
2962
2963		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
2964		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
2965		when using a graphics controller has separate video
2966		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
2967		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
2968		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
2969		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
2970		configured panel size.
2971
2972		Please see board_init_f function.
2973
2974- Automatic software updates via TFTP server

3007		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3008
3009		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3010		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3011
3012		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3013
3014		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3015

3129		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3130		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3131		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
3132
3133		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE

3157		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,
3158		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
3159		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
3160		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
3161		to read U-Boot
3162
3163		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS

3171
3172		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
3173		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
3174

3201		CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT
3202		Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary.
3203		It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by
3204		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3205
3206		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3207		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3208		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3209		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3210		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3211		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3212
3213		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3214		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3215		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3216		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3217
3218		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3219		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3220		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3221		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3222		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3223
3224- TPL framework
3225		CONFIG_TPL
3226		Enable building of TPL globally.
3227
3228		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
3229		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
3230		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3231		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3232		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3233		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3234
3235Modem Support:
3236--------------
3237
3238[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3239
3240- Modem support enable:
3241		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3242
3243- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3244		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3245
3246- Modem debug support:
3247		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3248
3249		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3250		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3251
3252- Interrupt support (PPC):
3253
3254		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3255		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3256		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3257		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3258		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3259		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3260		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3261		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3262		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3263		general timer_interrupt().
3264
3265- General:
3266
3267		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3268		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3269		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3270		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3271		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3272		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3273		initialization.
3274
3275		If there are no modem init strings in the
3276		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3277		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3278		suppressed, though.
3279
3280		See also: doc/README.Modem
3281
3282Board initialization settings:
3283------------------------------
3284
3285During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3286to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3287before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3288following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3289architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3290typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3291
3292- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3293- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3294- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3295- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3296
3297Configuration Settings:
3298-----------------------
3299
3300- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3301		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3302
3303- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3304		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3305
3306- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3307		prompt for user input.
3308
3309- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3310
3311- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3312
3313- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3314
3315- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3316		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3317		booted
3318
3319- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3320		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3321
3322- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3323		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3324
3325- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3326		If the board specific function
3327			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3328		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3329		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3330
3331- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3332		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3333
3334- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3335		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3336
3337- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3338		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3339		simple memory test.
3340
3341- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3342		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3343
3344- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3345		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3346		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3347
3348- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3349		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3350		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3351		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3352		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3353		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3354		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3355		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3356		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3357		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3358
3359		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3360		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3361		be touched.
3362
3363		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3364		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3365		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3366		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3367		problems.
3368
3369- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3370		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3371
3372- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3373		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.

3377		Cogent motherboard)
3378
3379- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3380		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3381
3382- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3383		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3384		make config files to be same as the text base address
3385		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3386		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3387
3388- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3389		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3390		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3391		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3392		flash sector.
3393
3394- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3395		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3396
3397- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3398		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3399		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3400		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3401		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3402
3403- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3404		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3405		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3406		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3407		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3408		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3409		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3410		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3411		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3412		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3413		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3414
3415- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3416		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3417		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3418		is enabled.
3419
3420- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3421		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3422		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3423
3424- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3425		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3426		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3427
3428- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3429		Max number of Flash memory banks
3430
3431- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3432		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3433
3434- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3435		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3436
3437- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3438		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3439
3440- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3441		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3442
3443- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3444		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3445
3446- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3447		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3448		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3449
3450- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3451
3452		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3453		without this option such a download has to be
3454		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3455		copy from RAM to flash.
3456
3457		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3458		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3459		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3460		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3461		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3462
3463- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3464		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3465		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3466
3467- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3468		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3469		in the drivers directory
3470
3471- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3472		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3473		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3474		to the MTD layer.
3475
3476- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3477		Use buffered writes to flash.
3478
3479- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3480		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3481		write commands.
3482
3483- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3484		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3485		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3486		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3487		optionally available.
3488
3489- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3490		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3491		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3492		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3493
3494- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3495		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3496		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3497		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3498		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3499		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3500		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3501		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3502
3503- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3504		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3505		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3506		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3507		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3508		on high Ethernet traffic.
3509		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3510
3511- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3512
3513	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3514	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3515	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3516	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3517	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3518
3519- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3520- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3521	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3522	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3523	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3524	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3525
3526	The format of the list is:
3527		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3528		access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
3529		attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
3530		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3531		list = entry[,list]
3532
3533	The type attributes are:
3534		s - String (default)
3535		d - Decimal
3536		x - Hexadecimal
3537		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3538		i - IP address
3539		m - MAC address
3540
3541	The access attributes are:
3542		a - Any (default)
3543		r - Read-only
3544		o - Write-once
3545		c - Change-default
3546
3547	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3548		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3549		envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3550
3551	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3552		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3553		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3554		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
3555		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3556		".flags" variable.
3557
3558- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3559	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3560	access flags.
3561
3562- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
3563	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
3564	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
3565	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
3566	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
3567	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
3568	must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
3569	its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
3570	your board please report the problem and send patches!
3571
3572- CONFIG_SYS_SYM_OFFSETS
3573	This is set by architectures that use offsets for link symbols
3574	instead of absolute values. So bss_start is obtained using an
3575	offset _bss_start_ofs from CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, rather than
3576	directly. You should not need to touch this setting.
3577
3578- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
3579	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
3580	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
3581	the value can be calulated on a given board.
3582
3583The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3584of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3585following configurations:
3586
3587- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3588
3589	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3590	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3591
3592- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
3593
3594	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
3595
3596	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
3597	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
3598	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
3599	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
3600	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
3601	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
3602	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
3603	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
3604	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
3605	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
3606	   between U-Boot and the environment.
3607
3608	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3609
3610	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
3611	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
3612	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
3613	   for this sector is given here.
3614
3615	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
3616
3617	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3618
3619	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
3620	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
3621	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
3622
3623	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
3624
3625	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
3626
3627
3628	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
3629	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
3630	   the environment.
3631
3632	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3633
3634	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
3635	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
3636	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
3637	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
3638
3639	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
3640	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
3641	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
3642	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
3643	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
3644	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
3645	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
3646	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
3647	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
3648
3649	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
3650	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
3651
3652	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
3653	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
3654	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
3655	   a "saveenv" operation.
3656
3657BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
3658source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
3659accordingly!
3660
3661
3662- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
3663
3664	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
3665	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
3666	environment.
3667
3668	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3669	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3670
3671	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
3672	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
3673	  can just be read and written to, without any special
3674	  provision.
3675
3676BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3677in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
3678console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
3679U-Boot will hang.
3680
3681Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3682environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3683keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3684to save the current settings.
3685
3686
3687- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
3688
3689	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
3690	device and a driver for it.
3691
3692	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3693	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3694
3695	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
3696	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
3697
3698	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
3699	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
3700	  The default address is zero.
3701
3702	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
3703	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
3704	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
3705	  would require six bits.
3706
3707	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
3708	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
3709	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
3710
3711	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
3712	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
3713	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
3714
3715	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
3716	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
3717	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
3718	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
3719	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
3720	  byte chips.
3721
3722	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
3723	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
3724	  in the chip address.
3725
3726	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
3727	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
3728
3729	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
3730	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
3731	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
3732
3733	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
3734	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
3735	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
3736	  EEPROM. For example:
3737
3738	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
3739
3740	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
3741	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
3742
3743- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
3744
3745	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
3746	want to use for the environment.
3747
3748	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3749	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3750	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3751
3752	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
3753	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
3754	  at the specified address.
3755
3756- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
3757
3758	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
3759	want to use for the local device's environment.
3760
3761	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3762	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3763
3764	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
3765	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
3766	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
3767	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
3768
3769BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3770"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
3771environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3772but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
3773
3774- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
3775
3776	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
3777	for the environment.
3778
3779	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3780	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3781
3782	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
3783	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
3784	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3785
3786	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
3787
3788	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
3789	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
3790	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
3791	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
3792	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3793
3794	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
3795
3796	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
3797	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
3798	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
3799	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
3800	  the range to be avoided.
3801
3802	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
3803
3804	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
3805	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
3806	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
3807	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
3808	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
3809
3810- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
3811
3812	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
3813	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
3814	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3815
3816- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
3817
3818	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
3819	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
3820	accesses, which is important on NAND.
3821
3822	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
3823
3824	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
3825
3826	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
3827
3828	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
3829	  environment in.
3830
3831	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
3832
3833	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
3834	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
3835	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
3836
3837	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3838	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3839
3840	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
3841	  when storing the env in UBI.
3842
3843- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
3844
3845	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
3846	environment.
3847
3848	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
3849
3850	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
3851
3852	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
3853
3854	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
3855	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
3856	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
3857
3858	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3859	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3860
3861	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
3862	  area within the specified MMC device.
3863
3864	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
3865	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
3866	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
3867	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
3868	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
3869	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
3870	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
3871
3872	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
3873	  MMC sector boundary.
3874
3875	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
3876
3877	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
3878	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
3879	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
3880	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
3881
3882	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
3883	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
3884
3885	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
3886	  an MMC sector boundary.
3887
3888	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
3889
3890	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
3891	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
3892	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3893
3894- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
3895
3896	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
3897	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
3898	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
3899	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
3900	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
3901	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
3902	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
3903
3904Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
3905has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
3906created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
3907until then to read environment variables.
3908
3909The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
3910is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
3911with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
3912necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
3913"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
3914have any device yet where we could complain.]
3915
3916Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
3917the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
3918use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
3919
3920- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
3921		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
3922
3923		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
3924		      also needs to be defined.
3925
3926- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
3927		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
3928
3929- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
3930		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
3931		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
3932		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
3933		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
3934		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
3935
3936- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
3937		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
3938		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
3939		to do this.
3940
3941- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
3942		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
3943		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
3944		present.
3945
3946Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
3947---------------------------------------------------
3948
3949- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
3950		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
3951
3952- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
3953		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
3954
3955		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
3956		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
3957		the IMMR register after a reset.
3958
3959- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
3960		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
3961		PowerPC SOCs.
3962
3963- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
3964		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
3965		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
3966
3967		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
3968		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
3969
3970- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
3971		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
3972		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
3973		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
3974		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
3975		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
3976		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
3977
3978		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
3979			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
3980
3981- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
3982		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
3983		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
3984		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3985		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3986
3987- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3988		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
3989		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3990		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3991
3992- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
3993		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
3994		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
3995
3996- Floppy Disk Support:
3997		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
3998
3999		the default drive number (default value 0)
4000
4001		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4002
4003		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4004		(default value 1)
4005
4006		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4007
4008		defines the offset of register from address. It
4009		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4010		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4011
4012		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4013		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4014		default value.
4015
4016		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4017		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4018		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4019		source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
4020		initializations.
4021
4022- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4023		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4024		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4025		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4026		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4027		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4028		is requierd.
4029
4030- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4031		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4032		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4033
4034- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4035
4036		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4037		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4038		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4039		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4040		will become available only after programming the
4041		memory controller and running certain initialization
4042		sequences.
4043
4044		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4045		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4046		- MPC824X: data cache
4047		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4048
4049- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4050
4051		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4052		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4053		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4054		data is located at the end of the available space
4055		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4056		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4057		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4058		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4059
4060	Note:
4061		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4062		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4063		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4064		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4065		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

4105		define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2]
4106

4108		enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4109		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1]
4110
4111- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4112		enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4113		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4]
4114
4115- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK:
4116		Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful,
4117		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4118		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4119
4120- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4121		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4122		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4123		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.
4124		cpm_8260.h.
4125
4126- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4127  CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4133  CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only)
4134		Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
4135
4136- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4137		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4138		required.
4139
4140- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4141		Only scan through and get the devices on the busses.
4142		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4143		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4144		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4145		by coreboot or similar.
4146
4147- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4148		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4149
4150- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
4151		Chip has SRIO or not
4152
4153- CONFIG_SRIO1:
4154		Board has SRIO 1 port available
4155
4156- CONFIG_SRIO2:
4157		Board has SRIO 2 port available
4158
4159- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER
4160		Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE
4161
4162- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT:
4163		Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4164
4165- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS:
4166		Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4167
4168- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE:
4169		Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4170
4171- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
4172		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
4173		a 16 bit bus.
4174		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
4175		Example of drivers that use it:
4176		- drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c

4178
4179- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG
4180		Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined
4181		a default value will be used.
4182

4185		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
4186
4187  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
4188		I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
4189
4190- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
4191		If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
4192		one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
4193		to something your driver can deal with.
4194
4195- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4196		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4197		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
4198		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
4199		header files or board specific files.
4200
4201- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
4202		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4203
4204- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4205		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4206		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4207
4208- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4209		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4210
4211- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4212		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4213		to the given FEC; i. e.
4214			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4215		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4216
4217		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4218
4219- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4220		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4221		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4222
4223- CONFIG_RMII
4224		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4225		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4226		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4227
4228- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4229		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4230		The syntax is:
4231
4232		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4233
4234		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4235		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4236		area should have.
4237
4238- CONFIG_LOOPW
4239		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4240		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4241
4242- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4243		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4244		"md/mw" commands.
4245		Examples:
4246
4247		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4248		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4249
4250		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4251		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4252
4253		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4254		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4255
4256- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4257		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4258		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4259		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4260		relocate itself into RAM.
4261
4262		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4263		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4264		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4265		these initializations itself.
4266
4267- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4268		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4269		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4270		compiling a NAND SPL.
4271
4272- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4273		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4274		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4275		It is loaded by the SPL.
4276
4277- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4278		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4279		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4280		previous 4k of the .text section.
4281
4282- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4283		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4284		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4285		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4286		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4287		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4288		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4289		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4290
4291- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4292  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4293		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4294		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4295		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4296
4297- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4298		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4299		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4300
4301- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4302		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4303
4304		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4305
4306Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4307-----------------------------------
4308
4309The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4310loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4311This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4312are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4313within that device.
4314
4315- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4316	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4317	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4318	is also specified.
4319
4320- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4321	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4322	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4323	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4324	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4325
4326- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4327	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4328	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4329	virtual address in NOR flash.
4330
4331- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4332	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4333	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4334
4335- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4336	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4337	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4338
4339- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4340	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4341	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4342
4343- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4344	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4345	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4346	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4347	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4348	master's memory space.
4349
4350Building the Software:
4351======================
4352
4353Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4354and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4355all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4356(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4357recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4358which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4359
4360If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4361have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4362you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4363Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4364necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4365
4366	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4367	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
4368
4369Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4370      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4371      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4372      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
4373
4374       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4375
4376      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4377      be executed on computers running Windows.
4378
4379U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4380sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4381is done by typing:
4382
4383	make NAME_config
4384
4385where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
4386rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
4387
4388Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4389      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
4390      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
4391      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
4392      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4393
4394      make TQM823L_config
4395	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4396
4397      make TQM823L_LCD_config
4398	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
4399
4400      etc.
4401
4402
4403Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
4404images ready for download to / installation on your system:
4405
4406- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
4407- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
4408- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
4409
4410By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4411in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4412this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4413
44141. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4415
4416	make O=/tmp/build distclean
4417	make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
4418	make O=/tmp/build all
4419
44202. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
4421
4422	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4423	make distclean
4424	make NAME_config
4425	make all
4426
4427Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
4428variable.
4429
4430
4431Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
4432for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
4433native "make".
4434

4436If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
4437to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
4438steps:
4439
44401.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
4441    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
4442    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
44432.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
4444    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
4445    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
44463.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
4447    your board
44483.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
4449    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
44504.  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
44515.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
4452    to be installed on your target system.
44536.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
4454    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
4455
4456
4457Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
4458==============================================================
4459
4460If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
4461or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
4462provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
4463the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
4464official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
4465
4466But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
4467cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
4468the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
4469just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
4470for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
4471select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
4472environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
4473you can type
4474
4475	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4476
4477or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
4478
4479	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
4480
4481When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
4482U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
4483setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
4484built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
4485<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
4486location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
4487variable. For example:
4488
4489	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4490	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
4491	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4492
4493With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
4494log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
4495during the whole build process.

4550Monitor Commands - Detailed Description:
4551========================================
4552
4553TODO.
4554
4555For now: just type "help <command>".
4556
4557
4558Environment Variables:
4559======================
4560
4561U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
4562can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
4563
4564Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
4565"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
4566without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
4567environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
4568working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
4569environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
4570
4571Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
4572
4573List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
4574
4575  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
4576
4577  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
4578
4579  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
4580
4581  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
4582
4583  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
4584
4585  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4586		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4587		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
4588		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
4589		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
4590		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
4591		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
4592		  bootm_mapsize.
4593
4594  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
4595		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
4596		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
4597		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
4598		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
4599		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
4600		  used otherwise.
4601
4602  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4603		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4604		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
4605		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
4606		  environment variable.
4607
4608  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
4609		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
4610		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
4611
4612  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
4613		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
4614		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
4615		  load any image using TFTP
4616
4617  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
4618		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
4619		  be automatically started (by internally calling
4620		  "bootm")
4621
4622		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
4623		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
4624		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
4625		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
4626		  data.
4627
4628  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
4629		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
4630		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
4631		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
4632		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
4633		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
4634		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
4635		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
4636		  access it during the boot procedure.
4637
4638		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
4639		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
4640		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
4641		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
4642		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
4643		  must be accessible by the kernel.
4644
4645  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
4646		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
4647		  defined.
4648
4649  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
4650		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
4651		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
4652		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
4653		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
4654
4655  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
4656		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4657		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4658		  is usually what you want since it allows for
4659		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4660		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
4661		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
4662		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4663		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4664		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4665		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
4666
4667		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
4668		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4669		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4670		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
4671		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4672		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4673
4674		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4675
4676		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
4677		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
4678		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
4679		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
4680		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
4681		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
4682		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
4683
4684  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4685
4686  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
4687		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
4688
4689  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4690
4691  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4692
4693  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
4694
4695  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
4696
4697  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
4698
4699  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4700
4701  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4702		  For example you can do the following
4703
4704		  => setenv ethact FEC
4705		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
4706		  => setenv ethact SCC
4707		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4708
4709  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4710		  available network interfaces.
4711		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4712
4713  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4714		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
4715		  When set to "once" the network operation will
4716		  fail when all the available network interfaces
4717		  are tried once without success.
4718		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4719		  themselves.
4720
4721  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
4722
4723  silent_linux  - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by
4724		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
4725		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
4726		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
4727		  is silent.
4728
4729  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
4730		  UDP source port.
4731
4732  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
4733		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
4734
4735  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4736		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4737
4738  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4739		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4740		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4741		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4742		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4743		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4744		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
4745
4746  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
4747		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
4748		  VLAN tagged frames.
4749
4750The following image location variables contain the location of images
4751used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4752not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4753variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4754server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4755loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4756flash or offset in NAND flash.
4757
4758*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4759boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
4760boards use these variables for other purposes.
4761
4762Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
4763-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
4764u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
4765Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
4766device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
4767ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
4768
4769The following environment variables may be used and automatically
4770updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
4771depending the information provided by your boot server:
4772
4773  bootfile	- see above
4774  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
4775  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
4776  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
4777  hostname	- Target hostname
4778  ipaddr	- see above
4779  netmask	- Subnet Mask
4780  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
4781  serverip	- see above
4782
4783
4784There are two special Environment Variables:
4785
4786  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
4787		  as type string and/or serial number
4788  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
4789
4790These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4791the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4792once they have been set once.
4793
4794
4795Further special Environment Variables:
4796
4797  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4798		  with the "version" command. This variable is
4799		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
4800
4801
4802Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
4803only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
4804
4805
4806Callback functions for environment variables:
4807---------------------------------------------
4808
4809For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
4810when their values are changed.  This functionailty allows functions to
4811be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
4812deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
4813effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
4814
4815The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
4816U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
4817
4818These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
4819static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
4820in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
4821associations.  The list must be in the following format:
4822
4823	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
4824	list = entry[,list]
4825
4826If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
4827Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
4828
4829Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
4830with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
4831override any association in the static list. You can define
4832CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
4833".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4834
4835
4836Command Line Parsing:
4837=====================
4838
4839There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
4840the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
4841
4842Old, simple command line parser:
4843--------------------------------
4844
4845- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
4846- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
4847- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
4848- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
4849  for example:
4850	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
4851- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
4852	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
4853
4854Hush shell:
4855-----------
4856
4857- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4858  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4859  until...do...done, ...
4860- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4861  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4862  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4863  command
4864
4865General rules:
4866--------------
4867
4868(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4869    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4870    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4871    executed anyway.
4872
4873(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
4874    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
4875    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4876    variables are not executed.
4877
4878Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4879=======================================
4880
4881Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
4882such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
4883"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
4884
4885Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4886MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4887"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
4888
4889If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4890in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4891ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4892variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
4893
4894o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4895  environment, the SROM's address is used.
4896
4897o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4898  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4899  used.
4900
4901o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4902  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
4903
4904o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4905  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4906  warning is printed.
4907
4908o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4909  is raised.
4910
4911If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
4912will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
4913may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4914The naming convention is as follows:
4915"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
4916
4917Image Formats:
4918==============
4919
4920U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
4921images in two formats:
4922
4923New uImage format (FIT)
4924-----------------------
4925
4926Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
4927to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
4928components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
4929SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
4930
4931
4932Old uImage format
4933-----------------
4934
4935Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
4936preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
4937details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
4938
4939* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
4940  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
4941  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
4942  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
4943  INTEGRITY).
4944* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
4945  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
4946  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
4947* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
4948* Load Address
4949* Entry Point
4950* Image Name
4951* Image Timestamp
4952
4953The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
4954and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
4955CRC32 checksums.
4956
4957
4958Linux Support:
4959==============
4960
4961Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
4962easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4963U-Boot.
4964
4965U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4966special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4967"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4968instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
4969serves several purposes:
4970
4971- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4972  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4973  Flash memory footprint)
4974
4975- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
4976  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
4977
4978- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4979  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4980  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4981  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4982  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4983  software is easier now.
4984
4985
4986Linux HOWTO:
4987============
4988
4989Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4990---------------------------------------
4991
4992U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4993configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4994(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4995Linux :-).
4996
4997But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
4998
4999Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5000include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5001Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5002and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5003as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5004
5005
5006Configuring the Linux kernel:
5007-----------------------------
5008
5009No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5010device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5011
5012
5013Building a Linux Image:
5014-----------------------
5015
5016With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5017not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5018"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5019U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5020which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5021100% compatible format.
5022
5023Example:
5024
5025	make TQM850L_config
5026	make oldconfig
5027	make dep
5028	make uImage
5029
5030The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5031encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5032CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5033
5034* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5035
5036* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5037
5038	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5039				 -R .note -R .comment \
5040				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5041
5042* compress the binary image:
5043
5044	gzip -9 linux.bin
5045
5046* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5047
5048	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5049		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5050		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5051
5052
5053The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5054with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5055combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5056byte header containing information about target architecture,
5057operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5058stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5059
5060"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5061print the header information, or to build new images.
5062
5063In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5064contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5065checksum verification:
5066
5067	tools/mkimage -l image
5068	  -l ==> list image header information
5069
5070The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5071from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5072
5073	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5074		      -n name -d data_file image
5075	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5076	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5077	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5078	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5079	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5080	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5081	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5082	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5083
5084Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5085address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5086kernel version:
5087
5088- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5089- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5090
5091So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5092
5093	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5094	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5095	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5096	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5097	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5098	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5099	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5100	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5101	Load Address: 0x00000000
5102	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5103
5104To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5105
5106	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5107	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5108	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5109	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5110	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5111	Load Address: 0x00000000
5112	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5113
5114NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5115speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5116needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5117need to be uncompressed:
5118
5119	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5120	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5121	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5122	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5123	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5124	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5125	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5126	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5127	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5128	Load Address: 0x00000000
5129	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5130
5131
5132Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5133when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5134
5135	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5136	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5137	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5138	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5139	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5140	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5141	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5142	Load Address: 0x00000000
5143	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5144
5145
5146Installing a Linux Image:
5147-------------------------
5148
5149To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5150you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5151
5152	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5153
5154The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5155image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5156address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5157specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5158command.
5159
5160Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5161TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5162
5163	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5164
5165	.......... done
5166	Erased 8 sectors
5167
5168	=> loads 40100000
5169	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5170	~>examples/image.srec
5171	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
5172	...
5173	15989 15990 15991 15992
5174	[file transfer complete]
5175	[connected]
5176	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5177
5178
5179You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5180this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5181corruption happened:
5182
5183	=> imi 40100000
5184
5185	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
5186	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L
5187	   Image Type:	 PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)

5190	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
5191	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
5192
5193
5194Boot Linux:
5195-----------
5196
5197The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5198memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5199of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5200parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5201"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5202
5203
5204	=> printenv bootargs
5205	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5206
5207	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5208
5209	=> printenv bootargs
5210	bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

5228If you want to boot a Linux kernel with initial RAM disk, you pass
5229the memory addresses of both the kernel and the initrd image (PPBCOOT

5231

5326More About U-Boot Image Types:
5327------------------------------
5328
5329U-Boot supports the following image types:
5330
5331   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5332	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5333	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5334	the Standalone Program.
5335   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5336	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5337	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5338	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5339	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5340   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5341	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5342	being started.
5343   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5344	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5345	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5346	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5347	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5348	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5349
5350	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5351	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5352	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5353	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5354	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5355	a multiple of 4 bytes).
5356
5357   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5358	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5359	flash memory.
5360
5361   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5362	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5363	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5364	as command interpreter.
5365
5366Booting the Linux zImage:
5367-------------------------

5369On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5370using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5371as the syntax of "bootm" command.
5372
5373Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5374kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5375address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5376format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".

5379Standalone HOWTO:
5380=================
5381
5382One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5383run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5384U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5385
5386Two simple examples are included with the sources:
5387
5388"Hello World" Demo:
5389-------------------
5390
5391'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5392application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5393It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5394like that:
5395
5396	=> loads
5397	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5398	~>examples/hello_world.srec
5399	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
5400	[file transfer complete]
5401	[connected]
5402	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
5403
5404	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
5405	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
5406	Hello World
5407	argc = 7
5408	argv[0] = "40004"
5409	argv[1] = "Hello"
5410	argv[2] = "World!"
5411	argv[3] = "This"
5412	argv[4] = "is"
5413	argv[5] = "a"
5414	argv[6] = "test."
5415	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
5416	Hit any key to exit ...
5417
5418	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
5419
5420Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
5421handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
5422Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
5423The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
5424character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
5425controlled by the following keys:
5426
5427	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
5428	b - enable interrupts and start timer
5429	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
5430	q - quit application
5431
5432	=> loads
5433	## Ready for S-Record download ...

5467Minicom warning:
5468================
5469
5470Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
5471"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
5472consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
5473Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
5474especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
5475use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
5476http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
5477for help with kermit.
5478
5479
5480Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
5481configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
5482
5483	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
5484	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N

5487
5488NetBSD Notes:
5489=============
5490
5491Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
5492(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
5493
5494Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
5495NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
5496need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
5497Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
5498attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
5499missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
5500
5501	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
5502	# mkdir powerpc
5503	# ln -s powerpc machine
5504	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
5505	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
5506
5507Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
5508and U-Boot include files.
5509
5510Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
5511stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
5512proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
5513tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
5514meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
5515
5516
5517Implementation Internals:
5518=========================
5519
5520The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
5521implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
5522inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
5523hardware.
5524
5525
5526Initial Stack, Global Data:
5527---------------------------
5528
5529The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
5530starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
5531system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
5532This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
5533is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
5534at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
5535options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
5536models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
5537MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
5538locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
5539
5540	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
5541	U-Boot mailing list:
5542
5543	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
5544	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
5545	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
5546	...
5547
5548	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
5549	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
5550	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
5551	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
5552	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
5553	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
5554	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
5555	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
5556
5557	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
5558	is another option for the system designer to use as an
5559	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
5560	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
5561	board designers haven't used it for something that would
5562	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
5563	used.
5564
5565	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
5566	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
5567	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
5568	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
5569	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
5570	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
5571	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
5572	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
5573	you get the config right.

5577
5578It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
5579code for the initialization procedures:
5580
5581* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
5582  to write it.
5583
5584* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
5585  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
5586  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
5587
5588* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
5589  that.
5590
5591Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
5592normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
5593turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
5594simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
5595functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
5596functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
5597the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
5598place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
5599reserve for this purpose.
5600
5601When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
5602relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
5603GCC's implementation.
5604
5605For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
5606	R1:	stack pointer
5607	R2:	reserved for system use
5608	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
5609	R5-R10: parameter passing
5610	R13:	small data area pointer
5611	R30:	GOT pointer
5612	R31:	frame pointer
5613
5614	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
5615	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
5616	going back and forth between asm and C)
5617
5618    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
5619
5620    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
5621    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
5622    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
5623    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
5624    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
5625    624 text + 127 data).
5626
5627On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
5628	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
5629
5630    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
5631
5632On ARM, the following registers are used:
5633
5634	R0:	function argument word/integer result
5635	R1-R3:	function argument word
5636	R9:	platform specific
5637	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
5638	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
5639	R12:	temporary workspace
5640	R13:	stack pointer
5641	R14:	link register
5642	R15:	program counter
5643
5644    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
5645
5646    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
5647
5648On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
5649	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
5650
5651    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
5652
5653    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
5654    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
5655
5656On NDS32, the following registers are used:
5657
5658	R0-R1:	argument/return
5659	R2-R5:	argument
5660	R15:	temporary register for assembler
5661	R16:	trampoline register
5662	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
5663	R29:	global pointer (GP)
5664	R30:	link register (LP)
5665	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
5666	PC:	program counter (PC)
5667
5668    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
5669
5670NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
5671or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
5672
5673Memory Management:
5674------------------
5675
5676U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5677MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5678
5679The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5680controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5681memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5682physical memory banks.
5683
5684U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5685TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5686booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5687to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
5688memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5689configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5690Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5691
5692Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5693of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5694
5695So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5696this:
5697
5698	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5699	      :
5700	0x0000 1FFF
5701	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5702	      :
5703	      :
5704
5705	      :
5706	      :
5707	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5708	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5709	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5710	      :
5711	0x00FD FFFF
5712	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5713	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5714	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5715	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5716
5717
5718System Initialization:
5719----------------------
5720
5721In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
5722(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5723configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
5724To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5725To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5726initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5727which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
5728part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
5729the caches and the SIU.
5730
5731Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5732preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5733(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5734on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5735programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5736simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5737banks.
5738
5739When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
5740different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5741bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
57420x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5743contiguous memory starting from 0.
5744
5745Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5746and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5747Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5748pages, and the final stack is set up.
5749
5750Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5751until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5752running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5753new address in RAM.

5830Coding Standards:
5831-----------------
5832
5833All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
5834coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
5835"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
5836
5837Source files originating from a different project (for example the
5838MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
5839reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
5840sources.
5841
5842Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
5843Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
5844in your code.
5845
5846Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
5847- remove any trailing white space

5857Submitting Patches:
5858-------------------
5859
5860Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
5861establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
5862may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
5863
5864Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
5865
5866Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
5867see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
5868
5869When you send a patch, please include the following information with
5870it:
5871
5872* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
5873  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
5874  patch actually fixes something.
5875
5876* For new features: a description of the feature and your
5877  implementation.
5878
5879* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
5880
5881* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
5882
5883* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
5884  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
5885
5886* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5887  document these in the README file.
5888
5889* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5890  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
5891  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
5892  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5893  with some other mail clients.
5894
5895  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5896  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5897  GNU diff.
5898
5899  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5900  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5901  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
5902  affected files).
5903
5904  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5905  and compressed attachments must not be used.
5906
5907* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
5908  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
5909
5910* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
5911  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
5912
5913
5914Notes:
5915
5916* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
5917  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5918  for any of the boards.
5919
5920* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5921  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5922  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
5923
5924* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5925  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5926  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5927  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5928  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5929  modification.
5930
5931* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
5932  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
5933  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
5934  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
