For instance, all monitor commands are 24implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to 25add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used 26code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can 27load and run it dynamically. 28 29 30Status: 31======= 32 33In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the 34Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered 35"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems. 36 37In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out 38who contributed the specific port. The boards.cfg file lists board 39maintainers. 40 41Note: There is no CHANGELOG file in the actual U-Boot source tree; 42it can be created dynamically from the Git log using: 43 44 make CHANGELOG 45 46 47Where to get help: 48================== 49 50In case you have questions about, problems with or contributions for 51U-Boot you should send a message to the U-Boot mailing list at 52<u-boot@lists.denx.de>.

the 229rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible. 230 231There are two classes of configuration variables: 232 233* Configuration _OPTIONS_: 234 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with 235 "CONFIG_". 236 237* Configuration _SETTINGS_: 238 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if 239 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with 240 "CONFIG_SYS_". 241 242Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even 243identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to 244do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic 245links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards 246as an example here. 247 248 249Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: 250--------------------------------------------------- 251 252For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default 253configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig". 254 255Example: For a TQM823L module type: 256 257 cd u-boot 258 make TQM823L_defconfig 259 260For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well; 261e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_defconfig". And also configure the cogent 262directory according to the instructions in cogent/README. 263 264 265Sandbox Environment: 266-------------------- 267 268U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox' 269board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture- 270specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to 271run some of U-Boot's tests. 272 273See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details. 274 275 276Configuration Options: 277---------------------- 278 279Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all 280such information is kept in a configuration file 281"include/configs/<board_name>.h". 282 283Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in 284"include/configs/TQM823L.h". 285 286 287Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux 288kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to 289build a config tool - later. 290 291 292The following options need to be configured: 293 294- CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX. 295 296- Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS. 297 298- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined) 299 Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002 300 301- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 302 Define exactly one of 303 CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD 304--- FIXME --- not tested yet: 305 CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P, 306 CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50 307 308- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 309 Define exactly one of 310 CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102 311 312- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 313 Define one or more of 314 CONFIG_CMA302 315 316- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined) 317 Define one or more of 318 CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on 319 the LCD display every second with 320 a "rotator" |\-/|\-/ 321 322- Marvell Family Member 323 CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable 324 multiple fs option at one time 325 for marvell soc family 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 required during NOR boot. 405 406 CONFIG_A008044_WORKAROUND 407 Enables a workaround for T1040/T1042 erratum A008044. It is only 408 required during NAND boot and valid for Rev 1.0 SoC revision 409 410 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY 411 412 This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600 413 according to the A004510 workaround. 414 415 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR 416 This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is 417 connected exclusively to the DSP cores. 418 419 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR 420 This value denotes start offset of M2 memory 421 which is directly connected to the DSP core. 422 423 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR 424 This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly 425 connected to the DSP core. 426 427 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT 428 This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space. 429 430 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK 431 Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's. 432 In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply 433 clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock. 434 435 CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F 436 This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the 437 time of U-boot entry and is required to be re-initialized. 438 439 CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP 440 Indicates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is 441 supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up. 442 443- Generic CPU options: 444 CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA 445 Defines global data is initialized in generic board board_init_f(). 446 If this macro is defined, global data is created and cleared in 447 generic board board_init_f(). Without this macro, architecture/board 448 should initialize global data before calling board_init_f(). 449 450 CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN 451 452 Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those 453 values is arch specific. 454 455 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR 456 Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is 457 found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core 458 SoCs. 459 460 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_ADDR 461 Freescale DDR memory-mapped register base. 462 463 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_EMU 464 Specify emulator support for DDR. Some DDR features such as 465 deskew training are not available. 466 467 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN1 468 Freescale DDR1 controller. 469 470 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN2 471 Freescale DDR2 controller. 472 473 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN3 474 Freescale DDR3 controller. 475 476 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN4 477 Freescale DDR4 controller. 478 479 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_ARM_GEN3 480 Freescale DDR3 controller for ARM-based SoCs. 481 482 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR1 483 Board config to use DDR1. It can be enabled for SoCs with 484 Freescale DDR1 or DDR2 controllers, depending on the board 485 implemetation. 486 487 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR2 488 Board config to use DDR2. It can be eanbeld for SoCs with 489 Freescale DDR2 or DDR3 controllers, depending on the board 490 implementation. 491 492 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR3 493 Board config to use DDR3. It can be enabled for SoCs with 494 Freescale DDR3 or DDR3L controllers. 495 496 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR3L 497 Board config to use DDR3L. It can be enabled for SoCs with 498 DDR3L controllers. 499 500 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR4 501 Board config to use DDR4. It can be enabled for SoCs with 502 DDR4 controllers. 503 504 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_IFC_BE 505 Defines the IFC controller register space as Big Endian 506 507 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_IFC_LE 508 Defines the IFC controller register space as Little Endian 509 510 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PBL_PBI 511 It enables addition of RCW (Power on reset configuration) in built image. 512 Please refer doc/README.pblimage for more details 513 514 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PBL_RCW 515 It adds PBI(pre-boot instructions) commands in u-boot build image. 516 PBI commands can be used to configure SoC before it starts the execution. 517 Please refer doc/README.pblimage for more details 518 519 CONFIG_SPL_FSL_PBL 520 It adds a target to create boot binary having SPL binary in PBI format 521 concatenated with u-boot binary. 522 523 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_BE 524 Defines the DDR controller register space as Big Endian 525 526 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_LE 527 Defines the DDR controller register space as Little Endian 528 529 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_SDRAM_BASE_PHY 530 Physical address from the view of DDR controllers. It is the 531 same as CONFIG_SYS_DDR_SDRAM_BASE for all Power SoCs. But 532 it could be different for ARM SoCs. 533 534 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_INTLV_256B 535 DDR controller interleaving on 256-byte. This is a special 536 interleaving mode, handled by Dickens for Freescale layerscape 537 SoCs with ARM core. 538 539 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_MAIN_NUM_CTRLS 540 Number of controllers used as main memory. 541 542 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_OTHER_DDR_NUM_CTRLS 543 Number of controllers used for other than main memory. 544 545 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_BE 546 Defines the SEC controller register space as Big Endian 547 548 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_LE 549 Defines the SEC controller register space as Little Endian 550 551- Intel Monahans options: 552 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO 553 554 Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator 555 ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core 556 frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz. 557 558 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO 559 560 Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator 561 ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and 562 2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied 563 by this value. 564 565- MIPS CPU options: 566 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET 567 568 Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack 569 pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before 570 relocation. 571 572 CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE 573 574 Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU. 575 See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h. 576 Possible values are: 577 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA 578 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA 579 CONF_CM_UNCACHED 580 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT 581 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE 582 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW 583 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW 584 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED 585 586 CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG 587 588 Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. 589 See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S. 590 591 CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES 592 593 Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq 594 XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to 595 be swapped if a flash programmer is used. 596 597- ARM options: 598 CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH 599 600 Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not 601 clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15. 602 603 CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD 604 605 Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction 606 set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides 607 better code density. For ARM architectures that support 608 Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by 609 GCC. 610 611 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044 612 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230 613 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622 614 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472 615 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072 616 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_761320 617 618 If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early 619 during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the 620 workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection 621 exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not 622 set these options unless they apply! 623 624- Driver Model 625 Driver model is a new framework for devices in U-Boot 626 introduced in early 2014. U-Boot is being progressively 627 moved over to this. It offers a consistent device structure, 628 supports grouping devices into classes and has built-in 629 handling of platform data and device tree. 630 631 To enable transition to driver model in a relatively 632 painful fashion, each subsystem can be independently 633 switched between the legacy/ad-hoc approach and the new 634 driver model using the options below. Also, many uclass 635 interfaces include compatibility features which may be 636 removed once the conversion of that subsystem is complete. 637 As a result, the API provided by the subsystem may in fact 638 not change with driver model. 639 640 See doc/driver-model/README.txt for more information. 641 642 CONFIG_DM 643 644 Enable driver model. This brings in the core support, 645 including scanning of platform data on start-up. If 646 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is enabled, the device tree will be 647 scanned also when available. 648 649 CONFIG_CMD_DM 650 651 Enable driver model test commands. These allow you to print 652 out the driver model tree and the uclasses. 653 654 CONFIG_DM_DEMO 655 656 Enable some demo devices and the 'demo' command. These are 657 really only useful for playing around while trying to 658 understand driver model in sandbox. 659 660 CONFIG_SPL_DM 661 662 Enable driver model in SPL. You will need to provide a 663 suitable malloc() implementation. If you are not using the 664 full malloc() enabled by CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START, 665 consider using CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE. In that case you 666 must provide CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN to set the size. 667 In most cases driver model will only allocate a few uclasses 668 and devices in SPL, so 1KB should be enable. See 669 CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN for more details on how to enable 670 it. 671 672 CONFIG_DM_SERIAL 673 674 Enable driver model for serial. This replaces 675 drivers/serial/serial.c with the serial uclass, which 676 implements serial_putc() etc. The uclass interface is 677 defined in include/serial.h. 678 679 CONFIG_DM_GPIO 680 681 Enable driver model for GPIO access. The standard GPIO 682 interface (gpio_get_value(), etc.) is then implemented by 683 the GPIO uclass. Drivers provide methods to query the 684 particular GPIOs that they provide. The uclass interface 685 is defined in include/asm-generic/gpio.h. 686 687 CONFIG_DM_SPI 688 689 Enable driver model for SPI. The SPI slave interface 690 (spi_setup_slave(), spi_xfer(), etc.) is then implemented by 691 the SPI uclass. Drivers provide methods to access the SPI 692 buses that they control. The uclass interface is defined in 693 include/spi.h. The existing spi_slave structure is attached 694 as 'parent data' to every slave on each bus. Slaves 695 typically use driver-private data instead of extending the 696 spi_slave structure. 697 698 CONFIG_DM_SPI_FLASH 699 700 Enable driver model for SPI flash. This SPI flash interface 701 (spi_flash_probe(), spi_flash_write(), etc.) is then 702 implemented by the SPI flash uclass. There is one standard 703 SPI flash driver which knows how to probe most chips 704 supported by U-Boot. The uclass interface is defined in 705 include/spi_flash.h, but is currently fully compatible 706 with the old interface to avoid confusion and duplication 707 during the transition parent. SPI and SPI flash must be 708 enabled together (it is not possible to use driver model 709 for one and not the other). 710 711 CONFIG_DM_CROS_EC 712 713 Enable driver model for the Chrome OS EC interface. This 714 allows the cros_ec SPI driver to operate with CONFIG_DM_SPI 715 but otherwise makes few changes. Since cros_ec also supports 716 I2C and LPC (which don't support driver model yet), a full 717 conversion is not yet possible. 718 719 720 ** Code size options: The following options are enabled by 721 default except in SPL. Enable them explicitly to get these 722 features in SPL. 723 724 CONFIG_DM_WARN 725 726 Enable the dm_warn() function. This can use up quite a bit 727 of space for its strings. 728 729 CONFIG_DM_STDIO 730 731 Enable registering a serial device with the stdio library. 732 733 CONFIG_DM_DEVICE_REMOVE 734 735 Enable removing of devices. 736 737 738- Linux Kernel Interface: 739 CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ 740 741 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz 742 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux 743 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the 744 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable 745 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot 746 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the 747 Linux kernel. 748 When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of 749 "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the 750 default environment. 751 752 CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only] 753 754 When transferring memsize parameter to Linux, some versions 755 expect it to be in bytes, others in MB. 756 Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes. 757 758 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 759 760 New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be 761 passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware 762 concepts). 763 764 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 765 * New libfdt-based support 766 * Adds the "fdt" command 767 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt 768 769 OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for 770 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 771 OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for 772 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 773 OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency. 774 OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device 775 776 boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC 777 addresses 778 779 CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP 780 781 Board code has addition modification that it wants to make 782 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel 783 784 CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP 785 786 Other code has addition modification that it wants to make 787 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel. 788 This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting 789 the kernel. 790 791 CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU 792 793 This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot 794 param header, the default value is zero if undefined. 795 796 CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP 797 798 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. 799 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot 800 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, 801 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and 802 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where 803 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. 804 805 CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory] 806 807 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one 808 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type 809 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry 810 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/). 811 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported 812 in a single configuration file and the machine type is 813 runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting. 814 815- vxWorks boot parameters: 816 817 bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following 818 environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname. 819 It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile. 820 821 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name 822 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address 823 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server 824 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters 825 826 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS 827 828 Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret" 829 830 Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride 831 the defaults discussed just above. 832 833- Cache Configuration: 834 CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot 835 CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot 836 CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot 837 838- Cache Configuration for ARM: 839 CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache 840 controller 841 CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310 842 controller register space 843 844- Serial Ports: 845 CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL 846 847 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs. 848 849 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL 850 851 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs. 852 853 CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK 854 855 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to 856 the clock speed of the UARTs. 857 858 CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS 859 860 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board, 861 define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported) 862 port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h 863 864 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR 865 866 Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500) 867 have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set 868 this variable to initialize the extra register. 869 870 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT 871 872 On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage 873 boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this 874 variable to flush the UART at init time. 875 876 CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL 877 878 Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver. 879 Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver 880 881- Console Interface: 882 Depending on board, define exactly one serial port 883 (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2, 884 CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial 885 console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE 886 887 Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial 888 port routines must be defined elsewhere 889 (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...) 890 891 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 892 Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following 893 defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042) 894 VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation 895 (default big endian) 896 VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports 897 rectangle fill 898 (cf. smiLynxEM) 899 VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports 900 bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM) 901 VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns 902 (cols=pitch) 903 VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows 904 VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel 905 VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format 906 (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c) 907 VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address 908 VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct 909 (i.e. i8042_kbd_init()) 910 VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct 911 (i.e. i8042_tstc) 912 VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct 913 (i.e. i8042_getc) 914 CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR cursor drawing on/off 915 (requires blink timer 916 cf. i8042.c) 917 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c) 918 CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME display time/date info in 919 upper right corner 920 (requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE) 921 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in 922 upper left corner 923 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of 924 linux_logo.h for logo. 925 Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 926 CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO 927 additional board info beside 928 the logo 929 930 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support 931 a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control, 932 erase functions and limited graphics rendition control). 933 934 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is 935 default i/o. Serial console can be forced with 936 environment 'console=serial'. 937 938 When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console 939 messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with 940 the "silent" environment variable. See 941 doc/README.silent for more information. 942 943 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default 944 is 0x00. 945 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default 946 is 0xa0. 947 948- Console Baudrate: 949 CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps 950 Select one of the baudrates listed in 951 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 952 CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale 953 954- Console Rx buffer length 955 With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define 956 the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC. 957 This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible. 958 If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE 959 must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for 960 the SMC. 961 962- Pre-Console Buffer: 963 Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART 964 initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. 965 Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to 966 buffer any console messages prior to the console being 967 initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 968 bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is 969 a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 970 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the 971 earlier bytes are discarded. 972 973 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if 974 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2 975 976- Safe printf() functions 977 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of 978 the printf() functions. These are defined in 979 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and 980 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes. 981 If this option is not given then these functions will 982 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means 983 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case. 984 985- Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds 986 Delay before automatically booting the default image; 987 set to -1 to disable autoboot. 988 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort 989 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined). 990 991 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that 992 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required. 993 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 994 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN 995 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED 996 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT 997 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 998 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 999 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2 1000 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2 1001 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK 1002 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY 1003 1004- Autoboot Command: 1005 CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 1006 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled; 1007 define a command string that is automatically executed 1008 when no character is read on the console interface 1009 within "Boot Delay" after reset. 1010 1011 CONFIG_BOOTARGS 1012 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm 1013 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the 1014 environment value "bootargs". 1015 1016 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT 1017 The value of these goes into the environment as 1018 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used 1019 as a convenience, when switching between booting from 1020 RAM and NFS. 1021 1022- Bootcount: 1023 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT 1024 Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot 1025 cycle, see: 1026 http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit 1027 1028 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV 1029 If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware 1030 "bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a 1031 saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable 1032 "upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is 1033 0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is 1034 1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment. 1035 So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available" 1036 and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully. 1037 1038- Pre-Boot Commands: 1039 CONFIG_PREBOOT 1040 1041 When this option is #defined, the existence of the 1042 environment variable "preboot" will be checked 1043 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 1044 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp. 1045 entering interactive mode. 1046 1047 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is 1048 automatically generated or modified. For an example 1049 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is 1050 modified when the user holds down a certain 1051 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when 1052 booting the systems 1053 1054- Serial Download Echo Mode: 1055 CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 1056 If defined to 1, all characters received during a 1057 serial download (using the "loads" command) are 1058 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal 1059 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take 1060 time on others. This setting #define's the initial 1061 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable. 1062 1063- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined) 1064 CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE 1065 Select one of the baudrates listed in 1066 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 1067 1068- Monitor Functions: 1069 Monitor commands can be included or excluded 1070 from the build by using the #include files 1071 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted 1072 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h> 1073 and augmenting with additional #define's 1074 for wanted commands. 1075 1076 The default command configuration includes all commands 1077 except those marked below with a "*". 1078 1079 CONFIG_CMD_AES AES 128 CBC encrypt/decrypt 1080 CONFIG_CMD_ASKENV * ask for env variable 1081 CONFIG_CMD_BDI

"config_cmd_all.h" 1191 #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET 1192 1193 Other Commands: 1194 fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 1195 1196 Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands 1197 (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know 1198 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data 1199 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or 1200 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be 1201 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other 1202 systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an 1203 initial stack and some data. 1204 1205 1206 XXX - this list needs to get updated! 1207 1208- Regular expression support: 1209 CONFIG_REGEX 1210 If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against 1211 the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library, 1212 which adds regex support to some commands, as for 1213 example "env grep" and "setexpr". 1214 1215- Device tree: 1216 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 1217 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree 1218 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically 1219 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is 1220 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device 1221 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. 1222 1223 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can 1224 be done using one of the two options below: 1225 1226 CONFIG_OF_EMBED 1227 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree 1228 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the 1229 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file 1230 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through 1231 the global data structure as gd->blob. 1232 1233 CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE 1234 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree 1235 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific 1236 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: 1237 1238 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin 1239 1240 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called 1241 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can 1242 still use the individual files if you need something more 1243 exotic. 1244 1245- Watchdog: 1246 CONFIG_WATCHDOG 1247 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog 1248 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC 1249 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 1250 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR 1251 register. When supported for a specific SoC is 1252 available, then no further board specific code should 1253 be needed to use it. 1254 1255 CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG 1256 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used 1257 SoC, then define this variable and provide board 1258 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. 1259 1260 CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT 1261 specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds. 1262 1263- U-Boot Version: 1264 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE 1265 If this variable is defined, an environment variable 1266 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot 1267 version as printed by the "version" command. 1268 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the 1269 next reset. 1270 1271- Real-Time Clock: 1272 1273 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC 1274 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the 1275 following options: 1276 1277 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx 1278 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC 1279 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC 1280 CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC 1281 CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC 1282 CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC 1283 CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC 1284 CONFIG_RTC_DS1339 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC 1285 CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC 1286 CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC 1287 CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC 1288 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337 1289 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on 1290 RV3029 RTC. 1291 1292 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1293 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1294 1295- GPIO Support: 1296 CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO 1297 1298 The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of 1299 chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of 1300 pins supported by a particular chip. 1301 1302 Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1303 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1304 1305- I/O tracing: 1306 When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O 1307 accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out 1308 to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is 1309 useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that 1310 the driver behaves the same way before and after a code 1311 change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To 1312 add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>' 1313 to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test. 1314 1315 Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below. 1316 Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will 1317 still continue to operate. 1318 1319 iotrace is enabled 1320 Start: 10000000 (buffer start address) 1321 Size: 00010000 (buffer size) 1322 Offset: 00000120 (current buffer offset) 1323 Output: 10000120 (start + offset) 1324 Count: 00000018 (number of trace records) 1325 CRC32: 9526fb66 (CRC32 of all trace records) 1326 1327- Timestamp Support: 1328 1329 When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp 1330 (date and time) of an image is printed by image 1331 commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is 1332 automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE . 1333 1334- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported: 1335 Zero or more of the following: 1336 CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table. 1337 CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the 1338 Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc. 1339 CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc. 1340 CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the 1341 bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see 1342 disk/part_efi.c 1343 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table. 1344 1345 If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or 1346 CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at 1347 least one non-MTD partition type as well. 1348 1349- IDE Reset method: 1350 CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several 1351 board configurations files but used nowhere! 1352 1353 CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will 1354 be performed by calling the function 1355 ide_set_reset(int reset) 1356 which has to be defined in a board specific file 1357 1358- ATAPI Support: 1359 CONFIG_ATAPI 1360 1361 Set this to enable ATAPI support. 1362 1363- LBA48 Support 1364 CONFIG_LBA48 1365 1366 Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB 1367 Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA. 1368 Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only' 1369 support disks up to 2.1TB. 1370 1371 CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA: 1372 When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses. 1373 Default is 32bit. 1374 1375- SCSI Support: 1376 At the moment only there is only support for the 1377 SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define 1378 CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it. 1379 1380 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and 1381 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID * 1382 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the 1383 maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target 1384 devices. 1385 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz) 1386 1387 The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of 1388 SCSI devices found during the last scan. 1389 1390- NETWORK Support (PCI): 1391 CONFIG_E1000 1392 Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips. 1393 1394 CONFIG_E1000_SPI 1395 Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x. 1396 This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one 1397 of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC. 1398 1399 CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC 1400 Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for 1401 example with the "sspi" command. 1402 1403 CONFIG_CMD_E1000 1404 Management command for E1000 devices. When used on devices 1405 with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot. 1406 1407 CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC 1408 default MAC for empty EEPROM after production. 1409 1410 CONFIG_EEPRO100 1411 Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips. 1412 Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM 1413 write routine for first time initialisation. 1414 1415 CONFIG_TULIP 1416 Support for Digital 2114x chips. 1417 Optional CONFIG_TULIP_SELECT_MEDIA for board specific 1418 modem chip initialisation (KS8761/QS6611). 1419 1420 CONFIG_NATSEMI 1421 Support for National dp83815 chips. 1422 1423 CONFIG_NS8382X 1424 Support for National dp8382[01] gigabit chips. 1425 1426- NETWORK Support (other): 1427 1428 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC 1429 Support for AT91RM9200 EMAC. 1430 1431 CONFIG_RMII 1432 Define this to use reduced MII inteface 1433 1434 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC_QUIET 1435 If this defined, the driver is quiet. 1436 The driver doen't show link status messages. 1437 1438 CONFIG_CALXEDA_XGMAC 1439 Support for the Calxeda XGMAC device 1440 1441 CONFIG_LAN91C96 1442 Support for SMSC's LAN91C96 chips. 1443 1444 CONFIG_LAN91C96_BASE 1445 Define this to hold the physical address 1446 of the LAN91C96's I/O space 1447 1448 CONFIG_LAN91C96_USE_32_BIT 1449 Define this to enable 32 bit addressing 1450 1451 CONFIG_SMC91111 1452 Support for SMSC's LAN91C111 chip 1453 1454 CONFIG_SMC91111_BASE 1455 Define this to hold the physical address 1456 of the device (I/O space) 1457 1458 CONFIG_SMC_USE_32_BIT 1459 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1460 1461 CONFIG_SMC_USE_IOFUNCS 1462 Define this to use i/o functions instead of macros 1463 (some hardware wont work with macros) 1464 1465 CONFIG_DRIVER_TI_EMAC 1466 Support for davinci emac 1467 1468 CONFIG_SYS_DAVINCI_EMAC_PHY_COUNT 1469 Define this if you have more then 3 PHYs. 1470 1471 CONFIG_FTGMAC100 1472 Support for Faraday's FTGMAC100 Gigabit SoC Ethernet 1473 1474 CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA 1475 Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY. 1476 Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY. 1477 If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur 1478 wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or 1479 useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit 1480 control registers. This behavior won't affect the 1481 correctnessof 10/100 link speed update. 1482 1483 CONFIG_SMC911X 1484 Support for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x chips 1485 1486 CONFIG_SMC911X_BASE 1487 Define this to hold the physical address 1488 of the device (I/O space) 1489 1490 CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT 1491 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1492 1493 CONFIG_SMC911X_16_BIT 1494 Define this if data bus is 16 bits. If your processor 1495 automatically converts one 32 bit word to two 16 bit 1496 words you may also try CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT. 1497 1498 CONFIG_SH_ETHER 1499 Support for Renesas on-chip Ethernet controller 1500 1501 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_USE_PORT 1502 Define the number of ports to be used 1503 1504 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_PHY_ADDR 1505 Define the ETH PHY's address 1506 1507 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_CACHE_WRITEBACK 1508 If this option is set, the driver enables cache flush. 1509 1510- PWM Support: 1511 CONFIG_PWM_IMX 1512 Support for PWM modul on the imx6. 1513 1514- TPM Support: 1515 CONFIG_TPM 1516 Support TPM devices. 1517 1518 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C 1519 Support for i2c bus TPM devices. Only one device 1520 per system is supported at this time. 1521 1522 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BUS_NUMBER 1523 Define the the i2c bus number for the TPM device 1524 1525 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_SLAVE_ADDRESS 1526 Define the TPM's address on the i2c bus 1527 1528 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BURST_LIMITATION 1529 Define the burst count bytes upper limit 1530 1531 CONFIG_TPM_ATMEL_TWI 1532 Support for Atmel TWI TPM device. Requires I2C support. 1533 1534 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_LPC 1535 Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device 1536 per system is supported at this time. 1537 1538 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS 1539 Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped 1540 to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at 1541 0xfed40000. 1542 1543 CONFIG_CMD_TPM 1544 Add tpm monitor functions. 1545 Requires CONFIG_TPM. If CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS is set, also 1546 provides monitor access to authorized functions. 1547 1548 CONFIG_TPM 1549 Define this to enable the TPM support library which provides 1550 functional interfaces to some TPM commands. 1551 Requires support for a TPM device. 1552 1553 CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS 1554 Define this to enable authorized functions in the TPM library. 1555 Requires CONFIG_TPM and CONFIG_SHA1. 1556 1557- USB Support: 1558 At the moment only the UHCI host controller is 1559 supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define 1560 CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it. 1561 define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard 1562 and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB 1563 storage devices. 1564 Note: 1565 Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives 1566 (TEAC FD-05PUB). 1567 MPC5200 USB requires additional defines: 1568 CONFIG_USB_CLOCK 1569 for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb 1570 CONFIG_PSC3_USB 1571 for USB on PSC3 1572 CONFIG_USB_CONFIG 1573 for differential drivers: 0x00001000 1574 for single ended drivers: 0x00005000 1575 for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100 1576 for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100 1577 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL 1578 May be defined to allow interrupt polling 1579 instead of using asynchronous interrupts 1580 1581 CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the 1582 txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset. 1583 1584 CONFIG_USB_DWC2_REG_ADDR the physical CPU address of the DWC2 1585 HW module registers. 1586 1587- USB Device: 1588 Define the below if you wish to use the USB console. 1589 Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the 1590 command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and 1591 attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print 1592 it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty 1593 can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to 1594 appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a 1595 Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device. 1596 If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate 1597 a Linux host by 1598 # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID 1599 else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment 1600 variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following 1601 might be defined in YourBoardName.h 1602 1603 CONFIG_USB_DEVICE 1604 Define this to build a UDC device 1605 1606 CONFIG_USB_TTY 1607 Define this to have a tty type of device available to 1608 talk to the UDC device 1609 1610 CONFIG_USBD_HS 1611 Define this to enable the high speed support for usb 1612 device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine 1613 int is_usbd_high_speed(void) 1614 also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll 1615 whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full 1616 speed. 1617 1618 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 1619 Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to 1620 be set to usbtty. 1621 1622 mpc8xx: 1623 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH 1624 Derive USB clock from external clock "blah" 1625 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02 1626 1627 CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH 1628 Derive USB clock from brgclk 1629 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04 1630 1631 If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to 1632 define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h 1633 or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define 1634 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME, 1635 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot 1636 should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host. 1637 1638 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER 1639 Define this string as the name of your company for 1640 - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company" 1641 1642 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME 1643 Define this string as the name of your product 1644 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device" 1645 1646 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 1647 Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB 1648 Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID 1649 to avoid polluting the USB namespace. 1650 - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF 1651 1652 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 1653 Define this as the unique Product ID 1654 for your device 1655 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF 1656 1657- ULPI Layer Support: 1658 The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via 1659 the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY 1660 via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and 1661 the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based 1662 viewport is supported. 1663 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and 1664 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. 1665 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the 1666 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to 1667 the appropriate value in Hz. 1668 1669- MMC Support: 1670 The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To 1671 enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be 1672 accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device 1673 to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is 1674 enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with 1675 the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT. 1676 1677 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF 1678 Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller 1679 1680 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR 1681 Define the base address of MMCIF registers 1682 1683 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK 1684 Define the clock frequency for MMCIF 1685 1686 CONFIG_GENERIC_MMC 1687 Enable the generic MMC driver 1688 1689 CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_BOOT 1690 Enable some additional features of the eMMC boot partitions. 1691 1692 CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_RPMB 1693 Enable the commands for reading, writing and programming the 1694 key for the Replay Protection Memory Block partition in eMMC. 1695 1696- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support: 1697 CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION 1698 This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class 1699 1700 CONFIG_CMD_DFU 1701 This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have 1702 U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB. This command 1703 requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be 1704 set and define the alt settings to expose to the host. 1705 1706 CONFIG_DFU_MMC 1707 This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU. 1708 1709 CONFIG_DFU_NAND 1710 This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU. 1711 1712 CONFIG_DFU_RAM 1713 This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU. 1714 Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but 1715 allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage, 1716 one that would help mostly the developer. 1717 1718 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE 1719 Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the 1720 raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer 1721 configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable 1722 through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable. 1723 1724 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE 1725 When updating files rather than the raw storage device, 1726 we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write 1727 the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define 1728 this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer. 1729 Default is 4 MiB if undefined. 1730 1731 DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT 1732 Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the 1733 host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending 1734 a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device. 1735 1736 DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT 1737 Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when 1738 entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before 1739 sending again an USB request to the device. 1740 1741- USB Device Android Fastboot support: 1742 CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT 1743 This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android 1744 fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB 1745 protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control 1746 used on Android devices. 1747 See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information. 1748 1749 CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE 1750 This enables support for booting images which use the Android 1751 image format header. 1752 1753 CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR 1754 The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for 1755 downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for 1756 downloaded images. 1757 1758 CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE 1759 The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for 1760 downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a 1761 platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot. 1762 1763 CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH 1764 The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing 1765 the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define 1766 this to enable the "fastboot flash" command. 1767 1768 CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV 1769 The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information 1770 regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to 1771 the eMMC device that fastboot should use to store the image. 1772 1773 CONFIG_FASTBOOT_GPT_NAME 1774 The fastboot "flash" command supports writing the downloaded 1775 image to the Protective MBR and the Primary GUID Partition 1776 Table. (Additionally, this downloaded image is post-processed 1777 to generate and write the Backup GUID Partition Table.) 1778 This occurs when the specified "partition name" on the 1779 "fastboot flash" command line matches this value. 1780 Default is GPT_ENTRY_NAME (currently "gpt") if undefined. 1781 1782- Journaling Flash filesystem support: 1783 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE, 1784 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV 1785 Define these for a default partition on a NAND device 1786 1787 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR, 1788 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS 1789 Define these for a default partition on a NOR device 1790 1791 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART 1792 Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a 1793 function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num) 1794 1795 If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to 1796 #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1 1797 to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you 1798 have not defined a custom partition 1799 1800- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support: 1801 CONFIG_FAT_WRITE 1802 1803 Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a 1804 file in FAT formatted partition. 1805 1806 This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the 1807 user to write files to FAT. 1808 1809CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support 1810 CONFIG_CMD_CBFS 1811 1812 Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot 1813 filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls 1814 and cbfsload. 1815 1816- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size: 1817 CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE 1818 1819 Define the max cluster size for fat operations else 1820 a default value of 65536 will be defined. 1821 1822- Keyboard Support: 1823 CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD 1824 1825 Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard 1826 support 1827 1828 CONFIG_I8042_KBD 1829 Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and 1830 GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support. 1831 Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc 1832 for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking. 1833 1834 CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB 1835 Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface. 1836 This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller 1837 which provides key scans on request. 1838 1839- Video support: 1840 CONFIG_VIDEO 1841 1842 Define this to enable video support (for output to 1843 video). 1844 1845 CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000 1846 1847 Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip 1848 1849 CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM 1850 Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The 1851 video output is selected via environment 'videoout' 1852 (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is 1853 assumed. 1854 1855 For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is 1856 selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways 1857 are possible: 1858 - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers. 1859 Following standard modes are supported (* is default): 1860 1861 Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024 1862 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1863 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307 1864 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319 1865 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A 1866 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B 1867 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1868 (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;) 1869 1870 - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed 1871 from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c) 1872 1873 1874 CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806 1875 Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp 1876 and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP 1877 or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP 1878 1879 CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB 1880 Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for 1881 SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU 1882 support, and should also define these other macros: 1883 1884 CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR 1885 CONFIG_VIDEO 1886 CONFIG_CMD_BMP 1887 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 1888 CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR 1889 CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE 1890 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 1891 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO 1892 1893 The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment 1894 variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during 1895 boot. See the documentation file README.video for a 1896 description of this variable. 1897 1898 CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA 1899 1900 Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you 1901 are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer 1902 driver. 1903 1904 1905- Keyboard Support: 1906 CONFIG_KEYBOARD 1907 1908 Define this to enable a custom keyboard support. 1909 This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be 1910 defined in your board-specific files. 1911 The only board using this so far is RBC823. 1912 1913- LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD 1914 1915 Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD 1916 display); also select one of the supported displays 1917 by defining one of these: 1918 1919 CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD: 1920 1921 HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320. 1922 1923 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33: 1924 1925 NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan. 1926 1927 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20 1928 1929 NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480. 1930 Active, color, single scan. 1931 1932 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54 1933 1934 NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480. 1935 Active, color, single scan. 1936 1937 CONFIG_SHARP_16x9 1938 1939 Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan. 1940 It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is. 1941 1942 CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341 1943 1944 Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480. 1945 Active, color, single scan. 1946 1947 CONFIG_HLD1045 1948 1949 HLD1045 display, 640x480. 1950 Active, color, single scan. 1951 1952 CONFIG_OPTREX_BW 1953 1954 Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5 1955 or 1956 Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T 1957 or 1958 Hitachi SP14Q002 1959 1960 320x240. Black & white. 1961 1962 Normally display is black on white background; define 1963 CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted. 1964 1965 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT 1966 1967 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (typically 4KB). If this is 1968 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead. 1969 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE 1970 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on 1971 a per-section basis. 1972 1973 CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES 1974 1975 When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of 1976 lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes 1977 the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling 1978 is slow. 1979 1980 CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8 1981 1982 Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD. 1983 1984 CONFIG_I2C_EDID 1985 1986 Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID 1987 information over I2C from an attached LCD display. 1988 1989- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN 1990 1991 If this option is set, the environment is checked for 1992 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display 1993 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD 1994 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address 1995 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The 1996 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This 1997 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is 1998 loaded very quickly after power-on. 1999 2000 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD 2001 2002 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment 2003 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address 2004 (see README.displaying-bmps). 2005 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment 2006 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data 2007 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned 2008 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them) 2009 there is no need to set this option. 2010 2011 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN 2012 2013 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned 2014 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the 2015 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as 2016 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it 2017 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also 2018 specify 'm' for centering the image. 2019 2020 Example: 2021 setenv splashpos m,m 2022 => image at center of screen 2023 2024 setenv splashpos 30,20 2025 => image at x = 30 and y = 20 2026 2027 setenv splashpos -10,m 2028 => vertically centered image 2029 at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 2030 2031- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP 2032 2033 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP 2034 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the 2035 splashscreen support or the bmp command. 2036 2037- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8 2038 2039 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images 2040 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the 2041 bmp command. 2042 2043- Do compressing for memory range: 2044 CONFIG_CMD_ZIP 2045 2046 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method 2047 to compress the specified memory at its best effort. 2048 2049- Compression support: 2050 CONFIG_GZIP 2051 2052 Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images. 2053 2054 CONFIG_BZIP2 2055 2056 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed 2057 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip 2058 compressed images are supported. 2059 2060 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so 2061 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should 2062 be at least 4MB. 2063 2064 CONFIG_LZMA 2065 2066 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed 2067 images is included. 2068 2069 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it 2070 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the 2071 formula: 2072 2073 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) 2074 2075 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits 2076 and Literal pos bits. 2077 2078 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, 2079 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a 2080 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is 2081 a very small buffer. 2082 2083 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and 2084 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring 2085 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value). 2086 2087 CONFIG_LZO 2088 2089 If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images 2090 is included. 2091 2092- MII/PHY support: 2093 CONFIG_PHY_ADDR 2094 2095 The address of PHY on MII bus. 2096 2097 CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx) 2098 2099 The clock frequency of the MII bus 2100 2101 CONFIG_PHY_GIGE 2102 2103 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex 2104 detection of gigabit PHY is included. 2105 2106 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY 2107 2108 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 2109 reset before any MII register access is possible. 2110 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay 2111 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A) 2112 2113 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx) 2114 2115 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 2116 command issued before MII status register can be read 2117 2118- Ethernet address: 2119 CONFIG_ETHADDR 2120 CONFIG_ETH1ADDR 2121 CONFIG_ETH2ADDR 2122 CONFIG_ETH3ADDR 2123 CONFIG_ETH4ADDR 2124 CONFIG_ETH5ADDR 2125 2126 Define a default value for Ethernet address to use 2127 for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this 2128 is not determined automatically. 2129 2130- IP address: 2131 CONFIG_IPADDR 2132 2133 Define a default value for the IP address to use for 2134 the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not 2135 determined through e.g. bootp. 2136 (Environment variable "ipaddr") 2137 2138- Server IP address: 2139 CONFIG_SERVERIP 2140 2141 Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP 2142 server to contact when using the "tftboot" command. 2143 (Environment variable "serverip") 2144 2145 CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR 2146 2147 Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr' 2148 for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option) 2149 2150- Gateway IP address: 2151 CONFIG_GATEWAYIP 2152 2153 Defines a default value for the IP address of the 2154 default router where packets to other networks are 2155 sent to. 2156 (Environment variable "gatewayip") 2157 2158- Subnet mask: 2159 CONFIG_NETMASK 2160 2161 Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or 2162 routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP 2163 address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be 2164 forwarded through a router. 2165 (Environment variable "netmask") 2166 2167- Multicast TFTP Mode: 2168 CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP 2169 2170 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per 2171 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets 2172 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet 2173 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a 2174 multicast group. 2175 2176- BOOTP Recovery Mode: 2177 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY 2178 2179 If you have many targets in a network that try to 2180 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all 2181 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same 2182 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery 2183 from a power failure, when all systems will try to 2184 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining 2185 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be 2186 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The 2187 following delays are inserted then: 2188 2189 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec 2190 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec 2191 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec 2192 4th and following 2193 BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec 2194 2195 CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE 2196 2197 BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The 2198 server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and 2199 U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of 2200 an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses 2201 aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP 2202 ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to 2203 respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it 2204 takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that 2205 time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order 2206 to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these 2207 retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of 2208 IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this 2209 cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding 2210 requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers 2211 from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency. 2212 2213- DHCP Advanced Options: 2214 You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining 2215 CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols: 2216 2217 CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK 2218 CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY 2219 CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME 2220 CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN 2221 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH 2222 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE 2223 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 2224 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 2225 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME 2226 CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER 2227 CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET 2228 CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX 2229 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL 2230 2231 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip 2232 environment variable, not the BOOTP server. 2233 2234 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found 2235 after the configured retry count, the call will fail 2236 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over 2237 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server 2238 is not available. 2239 2240 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS 2241 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more 2242 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. 2243 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS 2244 serverip will be stored in the additional environment 2245 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always 2246 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 2247 is defined. 2248 2249 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable 2250 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they 2251 need the hostname of the DHCP requester. 2252 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content 2253 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as 2254 option 12 to the DHCP server. 2255 2256 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY 2257 2258 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between 2259 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request". 2260 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't 2261 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an 2262 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed 2263 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003 2264 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at 2265 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope 2266 that one of the retries will be successful but note that 2267 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than 2268 this delay. 2269 2270 - Link-local IP address negotiation: 2271 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network 2272 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. 2273 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed 2274 to exist in all environments that the device must operate. 2275 2276 See doc/README.link-local for more information. 2277 2278 - CDP Options: 2279 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID 2280 2281 The device id used in CDP trigger frames. 2282 2283 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX 2284 2285 A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address 2286 of the device. 2287 2288 CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID 2289 2290 A printf format string which contains the ascii name of 2291 the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets 2292 eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc. 2293 2294 CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES 2295 2296 A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities; 2297 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards. 2298 2299 CONFIG_CDP_VERSION 2300 2301 An ascii string containing the version of the software. 2302 2303 CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM 2304 2305 An ascii string containing the name of the platform. 2306 2307 CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER 2308 2309 A 32bit integer sent on the trigger. 2310 2311 CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION 2312 2313 A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the 2314 device in .1 of milliwatts. 2315 2316 CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE 2317 2318 A byte containing the id of the VLAN. 2319 2320- Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED 2321 2322 Several configurations allow to display the current 2323 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink 2324 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as 2325 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and 2326 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running 2327 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux 2328 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this 2329 feature in U-Boot. 2330 2331 Additional options: 2332 2333 CONFIG_GPIO_LED 2334 The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin. 2335 In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a 2336 status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED 2337 to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary. 2338 2339 CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE 2340 Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which 2341 case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and 2342 GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state. 2343 In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined 2344 with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity. 2345 2346- CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER 2347 2348 Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support 2349 on those systems that support this (optional) 2350 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. 2351 2352- I2C Support: CONFIG_SYS_I2C 2353 2354 This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use 2355 i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set 2356 CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c 2357 based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See 2358 common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line 2359 interface. 2360 2361 ported i2c driver to the new framework: 2362 - drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c: 2363 - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define 2364 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE 2365 for defining speed and slave address 2366 - activate second bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS2 define 2367 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_2 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_2 2368 for defining speed and slave address 2369 - activate third bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS3 define 2370 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_3 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_3 2371 for defining speed and slave address 2372 - activate fourth bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS4 define 2373 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_4 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_4 2374 for defining speed and slave address 2375 2376 - drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c: 2377 - activate i2c driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_FSL 2378 define CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_OFFSET for setting the register 2379 offset CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SPEED for the i2c speed and 2380 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SLAVE for the slave addr of the first 2381 bus. 2382 - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define 2383 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset 2384 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SPEED for the speed and 2385 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SLAVE for the slave address of the 2386 second bus. 2387 2388 - drivers/i2c/tegra_i2c.c: 2389 - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_TEGRA 2390 - This driver adds 4 i2c buses with a fix speed from 2391 100000 and the slave addr 0!

If you 2484 don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this 2485 is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can 2486 omit this define. 2487 2488 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS 2489 define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware. 2490 if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can 2491 omit this define. 2492 2493 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS 2494 define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected 2495 on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this 2496 define. 2497 2498 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES 2499 hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if 2500 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example 2501 a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and 2502 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9: 2503 2504 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES {{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2505 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \ 2506 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \ 2507 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \ 2508 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \ 2509 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \ 2510 {1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2511 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \ 2512 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \ 2513 } 2514 2515 which defines 2516 bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux 2517 bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1 2518 bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2 2519 bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3 2520 bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4 2521 bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5 2522 bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux 2523 bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1 2524 bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2 2525 2526 If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define. 2527 2528- Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C 2529 2530 NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which 2531 provides the following compelling advantages: 2532 2533 - more than one i2c adapter is usable 2534 - approved multibus support 2535 - better i2c mux support 2536 2537 ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. ** 2538 2539 These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining 2540 CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver 2541 for the selected CPU. 2542 2543 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot 2544 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in 2545 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime 2546 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the 2547 command line interface. 2548 2549 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. 2550 2551 There are several other quantities that must also be 2552 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2553 2554 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED 2555 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus 2556 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie 2557 the CPU's i2c node address). 2558 2559 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx 2560 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node 2561 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See, 2562 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set 2563 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0. 2564 2565 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX 2566 2567 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2568 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2569 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start 2570 commands until the slave device responds. 2571 2572 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2573 2574 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT) 2575 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are 2576 from include/configs/lwmon.h): 2577 2578 I2C_INIT 2579 2580 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C 2581 controller or configure ports. 2582 2583 eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL) 2584 2585 I2C_PORT 2586 2587 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code 2588 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values 2589 are 0..3 for ports A..D. 2590 2591 I2C_ACTIVE 2592 2593 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active 2594 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this 2595 define can be null. 2596 2597 eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA) 2598 2599 I2C_TRISTATE 2600 2601 The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated 2602 (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this 2603 define can be null. 2604 2605 eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA) 2606 2607 I2C_READ 2608 2609 Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high, 2610 false if it is low. 2611 2612 eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0) 2613 2614 I2C_SDA(bit) 2615 2616 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it 2617 is false, it clears it (low). 2618 2619 eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \ 2620 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \ 2621 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA 2622 2623 I2C_SCL(bit) 2624 2625 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it 2626 is false, it clears it (low). 2627 2628 eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \ 2629 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \ 2630 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL 2631 2632 I2C_DELAY 2633 2634 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this 2635 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus 2636 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something 2637 like: 2638 2639 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2) 2640 2641 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA 2642 2643 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h), 2644 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be 2645 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will 2646 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate. 2647 2648 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to 2649 the generic GPIO functions. 2650 2651 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD 2652 2653 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2654 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2655 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access 2656 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the 2657 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin 2658 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a 2659 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c 2660 is run early in the boot sequence. 2661 2662 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT 2663 2664 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is 2665 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in 2666 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() 2667 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus 2668 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c 2669 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of 2670 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus 2671 controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). 2672 2673 CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 2674 2675 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags 2676 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment 2677 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast) 2678 2679 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2680 2681 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which 2682 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is 2683 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command. 2684 Note that bus numbering is zero-based. 2685 2686 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES 2687 2688 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped 2689 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2690 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify 2691 a 1D array of device addresses 2692 2693 e.g. 2694 #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2695 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68} 2696 2697 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus 2698 2699 #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2700 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}} 2701 2702 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1 2703 2704 CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 2705 2706 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD. 2707 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0. 2708 2709 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM 2710 2711 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC. 2712 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0. 2713 2714 CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM 2715 2716 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT. 2717 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0. 2718 2719 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR: 2720 2721 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device. 2722 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for 2723 specified DTT device. 2724 2725 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START 2726 2727 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in 2728 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start 2729 between writing the address pointer and reading the 2730 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour 2731 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C 2732 devices can use either method, but some require one or 2733 the other. 2734 2735- SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI 2736 2737 Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with 2738 SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and 2739 D/As on the SACSng board) 2740 2741 CONFIG_SH_SPI 2742 2743 Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently 2744 only SH7757 is supported. 2745 2746 CONFIG_SPI_X 2747 2748 Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing. 2749 (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X) 2750 2751 CONFIG_SOFT_SPI 2752 2753 Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than 2754 using hardware support. This is a general purpose 2755 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins 2756 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is 2757 defined, the board configuration must define several 2758 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For 2759 an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h. 2760 2761 CONFIG_HARD_SPI 2762 2763 Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads 2764 and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration 2765 must define a list of chip-select function pointers. 2766 Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an 2767 example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h. 2768 2769 CONFIG_MXC_SPI 2770 2771 Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC 2772 SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported. 2773 2774 CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT 2775 Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed. 2776 default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100) /* 10 ms */ 2777 2778- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA 2779 2780 Enables FPGA subsystem. 2781 2782 CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor> 2783 2784 Enables support for specific chip vendors. 2785 (ALTERA, XILINX) 2786 2787 CONFIG_FPGA_<family> 2788 2789 Enables support for FPGA family. 2790 (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX) 2791 2792 CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT 2793 2794 Specify the number of FPGA devices to support. 2795 2796 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK 2797 2798 Enable support for fpga loadmk command 2799 2800 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP 2801 2802 Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream 2803 2804 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP 2805 2806 Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream 2807 (Xilinx only) 2808 2809 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK 2810 2811 Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration. 2812 2813 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY 2814 2815 Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy 2816 status by the configuration function. This option 2817 will require a board or device specific function to 2818 be written. 2819 2820 CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY 2821 2822 If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA 2823 configuration driver. 2824 2825 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC 2826 Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration 2827 2828 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR 2829 2830 Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile 2831 loading. For example, abort during Virtex II 2832 configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which 2833 indicated a CRC error). 2834 2835 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT 2836 2837 Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to de-assert 2838 after PROB_B has been de-asserted during a Virtex II 2839 FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500 2840 ms. 2841 2842 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY 2843 2844 Maximum time to wait for BUSY to de-assert during 2845 Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms. 2846 2847 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG 2848 2849 Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is 2850 200 ms. 2851 2852- Configuration Management: 2853 CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET 2854 2855 Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary 2856 with a special header) as build targets. By defining 2857 CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this 2858 special image will be automatically built upon calling 2859 make / MAKEALL. 2860 2861 CONFIG_IDENT_STRING 2862 2863 If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot 2864 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION) 2865 2866- Vendor Parameter Protection: 2867 2868 U-Boot considers the values of the environment 2869 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and 2870 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that 2871 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and 2872 protects these variables from casual modification by 2873 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only, 2874 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can 2875 change this behaviour: 2876 2877 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config 2878 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is 2879 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete 2880 these parameters. 2881 2882 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR 2883 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default 2884 Ethernet address is installed in the environment, 2885 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The 2886 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains 2887 read-only.] 2888 2889 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way 2890 for any variable by configuring the type of access 2891 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable 2892 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC. 2893 2894- Protected RAM: 2895 CONFIG_PRAM 2896 2897 Define this variable to enable the reservation of 2898 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten 2899 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of 2900 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite 2901 this default value by defining an environment 2902 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to 2903 reserve. Note that the board info structure will 2904 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is 2905 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will 2906 automatically be defined to hold the amount of 2907 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot 2908 argument to Linux, for instance like that: 2909 2910 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem} 2911 saveenv 2912 2913 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory, 2914 either, which results in a memory region that will 2915 not be affected by reboots. 2916 2917 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic 2918 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that 2919 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the 2920 following board configurations are known to be 2921 "pRAM-clean": 2922 2923 IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL, 2924 HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, 2925 FLAGADM, TQM8260 2926 2927- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB) 2928 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not 2929 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures 2930 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit 2931 machines using physical address extension or similar. 2932 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which 2933 currently only supports clearing the memory. 2934 2935- Error Recovery: 2936 CONFIG_PANIC_HANG 2937 2938 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a 2939 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually. 2940 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded 2941 system where you want the system to reboot 2942 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be 2943 useful during development since you can try to debug 2944 the conditions that lead to the situation. 2945 2946 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT 2947 2948 This variable defines the number of retries for 2949 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP 2950 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a 2951 default value of 5 is used. 2952 2953 CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT 2954 2955 Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds. 2956 2957 CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 2958 2959 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol. 2960 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command, 2961 try longer timeout such as 2962 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL 2963 2964- Command Interpreter: 2965 CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE 2966 2967 Enable auto completion of commands using TAB. 2968 2969 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 2970 2971 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is 2972 printed when the command interpreter needs more input 2973 to complete a command. Usually "> ". 2974 2975 Note: 2976 2977 In the current implementation, the local variables 2978 space and global environment variables space are 2979 separated. Local variables are those you define by 2980 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local 2981 variable later on, you have write `$name' or 2982 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable 2983 directly type `$name' at the command prompt. 2984 2985 Global environment variables are those you use 2986 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored 2987 in such a variable, you need to use the run command, 2988 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them. 2989 2990 To store commands and special characters in a 2991 variable, please use double quotation marks 2992 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead 2993 of the backslashes before semicolons and special 2994 symbols. 2995 2996- Command Line Editing and History: 2997 CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING 2998 2999 Enable editing and History functions for interactive 3000 command line input operations 3001 3002- Default Environment: 3003 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS 3004 3005 Define this to contain any number of null terminated 3006 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of 3007 the default environment compiled into the boot image. 3008 3009 For example, place something like this in your 3010 board's config file: 3011 3012 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \ 3013 "myvar1=value1\0" \ 3014 "myvar2=value2\0" 3015 3016 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the 3017 internal format how the environment is stored by the 3018 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported 3019 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format 3020 will change soon, there is no guarantee either. 3021 You better know what you are doing here. 3022 3023 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is 3024 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset 3025 the environment like the "source" command or the 3026 boot command first. 3027 3028 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG 3029 3030 Define this in order to add variables describing the 3031 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment. 3032 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc. 3033 3034 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined: 3035 3036 - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH 3037 - CONFIG_SYS_CPU 3038 - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD 3039 - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR 3040 - CONFIG_SYS_SOC 3041 3042 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG 3043 3044 Define this in order to add variables describing certain 3045 run-time determined information about the hardware to the 3046 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev. 3047 3048 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT 3049 3050 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is 3051 initialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits 3052 that so that the environment is not available until 3053 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 3054 this is instead controlled by the value of 3055 /config/load-environment. 3056 3057- DataFlash Support: 3058 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH 3059 3060 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and 3061 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard 3062 commands cp, md... 3063 3064- Serial Flash support 3065 CONFIG_CMD_SF 3066 3067 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands 3068 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'. 3069 3070 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial 3071 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update 3072 commands. 3073 3074 The following defaults may be provided by the platform 3075 to handle the common case when only a single serial 3076 flash is present on the system. 3077 3078 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier 3079 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select 3080 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h) 3081 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz 3082 3083 CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST 3084 3085 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash 3086 test ('sf test'). 3087 3088 CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg 3089 3090 Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr 3091 support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes. 3092 3093 CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH Dual flash memories 3094 3095 Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash 3096 memories can be connected with a given cs line. 3097 Currently Xilinx Zynq qspi supports these type of connections. 3098 3099 CONFIG_SYS_SPI_ST_ENABLE_WP_PIN 3100 enable the W#/Vpp signal to disable writing to the status 3101 register on ST MICRON flashes like the N25Q128. 3102 The status register write enable/disable bit, combined with 3103 the W#/VPP signal provides hardware data protection for the 3104 device as follows: When the enable/disable bit is set to 1, 3105 and the W#/VPP signal is driven LOW, the status register 3106 nonvolatile bits become read-only and the WRITE STATUS REGISTER 3107 operation will not execute. The only way to exit this 3108 hardware-protected mode is to drive W#/VPP HIGH. 3109 3110- SystemACE Support: 3111 CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 3112 3113 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE 3114 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address 3115 of the chip must also be defined in the 3116 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example: 3117 3118 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 3119 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000 3120 3121 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type 3122 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls. 3123 3124- TFTP Fixed UDP Port: 3125 CONFIG_TFTP_PORT 3126 3127 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp 3128 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value. 3129 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port 3130 number generator is used. 3131 3132 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply 3133 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't 3134 defined, the normal port 69 is used. 3135 3136 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to 3137 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured 3138 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of 3139 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing 3140 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally. 3141 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall, 3142 but sometimes that is not allowed. 3143 3144- Hashing support: 3145 CONFIG_CMD_HASH 3146 3147 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce 3148 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256). 3149 3150 CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY 3151 3152 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code 3153 size a little. 3154 3155 CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing 3156 CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing 3157 3158 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps 3159 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'. 3160 3161- Freescale i.MX specific commands: 3162 CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT 3163 This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an 3164 HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific. 3165 3166 CONFIG_CMD_BMODE 3167 This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing 3168 a boot from specific media. 3169 3170 This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to 3171 activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating 3172 on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal 3173 will set it back to normal. This command currently 3174 supports i.MX53 and i.MX6. 3175 3176- Signing support: 3177 CONFIG_RSA 3178 3179 This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification 3180 in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information. 3181 3182 The Modular Exponentiation algorithm in RSA is implemented using 3183 driver model. So CONFIG_DM needs to be enabled by default for this 3184 library to function. 3185 3186 The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this 3187 option. The software based modular exponentiation is built into 3188 mkimage irrespective of this option. 3189 3190- bootcount support: 3191 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT 3192 3193 This enables the bootcounter support, see: 3194 http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit 3195 3196 CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE 3197 enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards. 3198 CONFIG_BLACKFIN 3199 enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards. 3200 CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX 3201 enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards. 3202 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM 3203 enable support for the bootcounter in RAM 3204 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C 3205 enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device. 3206 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address 3207 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for 3208 the bootcounter. 3209 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len 3210 3211- Show boot progress: 3212 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS 3213 3214 Defining this option allows to add some board- 3215 specific code (calling a user-provided function 3216 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show 3217 the system's boot progress on some display (for 3218 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment, 3219 the following checkpoints are implemented: 3220 3221- Detailed boot stage timing 3222 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE 3223 Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage 3224 of the boot process. 3225 3226 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT 3227 This is the number of available user bootstage records. 3228 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...) 3229 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed 3230 the limit, recording will stop. 3231 3232 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT 3233 Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this: 3234 3235 Timer summary in microseconds: 3236 Mark Elapsed Stage 3237 0 0 reset 3238 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start 3239 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9 3240 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done 3241 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start 3242 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop 3243 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start 3244 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel 3245 3246 CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE 3247 Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report 3248 and un/stashing of bootstage data. 3249 3250 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT 3251 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage' 3252 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child 3253 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the 3254 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the 3255 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds. 3256 For example: 3257 3258 bootstage { 3259 154 { 3260 name = "board_init_f"; 3261 mark = <3575678>; 3262 }; 3263 170 { 3264 name = "lcd"; 3265 accum = <33482>; 3266 }; 3267 }; 3268 3269 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree. 3270 3271Legacy uImage format: 3272 3273 Arg Where When 3274 1 common/cmd_bootm.c before attempting to boot an image 3275 -1 common/cmd_bootm.c Image header

3425 CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY 3426 enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot. 3427 3428 Default: 3429 enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined. 3430 3431 CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY 3432 disable the legacy image format 3433 3434 This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is 3435 enabled per default for backward compatibility. 3436 3437- FIT image support: 3438 CONFIG_FIT 3439 Enable support for the FIT uImage format. 3440 3441 CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH 3442 When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the 3443 one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of 3444 U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the 3445 most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node. 3446 The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored. 3447 3448 CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE 3449 This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages, 3450 using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See 3451 doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details. 3452 3453 WARNING: When relying on signed FIT images with required 3454 signature check the legacy image format is default 3455 disabled. If a board need legacy image format support 3456 enable this through CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY 3457 3458 CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256 3459 Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size. 3460 For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled 3461 with this option. 3462 3463- Standalone program support: 3464 CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR 3465 3466 This option defines a board specific value for the 3467 address where standalone program gets loaded, thus 3468 overwriting the architecture dependent default 3469 settings. 3470 3471- Frame Buffer Address: 3472 CONFIG_FB_ADDR 3473 3474 Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific 3475 address for frame buffer. This is typically the case 3476 when using a graphics controller has separate video 3477 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at 3478 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it 3479 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs 3480 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the 3481 configured panel size. 3482 3483 Please see board_init_f function. 3484 3485- Automatic software updates via TFTP server 3486 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP 3487 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX 3488 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX 3489 3490 These options enable and control the auto-update feature; 3491 for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update. 3492 3493- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support) 3494 CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE 3495 3496 Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel. 3497 Needed for mtdparts command support. 3498 3499 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS 3500 3501 Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux 3502 kernel. Needed for UBI support. 3503 3504 CONFIG_MTD_NAND_VERIFY_WRITE 3505 verify if the written data is correct reread. 3506 3507- UBI support 3508 CONFIG_CMD_UBI 3509 3510 Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted 3511 with the UBI flash translation layer 3512 3513 Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE 3514 3515 CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG 3516 3517 Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing. This leaves 3518 warnings and errors enabled. 3519 3520 3521 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD 3522 This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest 3523 erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks 3524 of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing 3525 wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase 3526 counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter. 3527 3528 The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and 3529 other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more. 3530 However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock 3531 life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g., 3532 to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2). 3533 3534 default: 4096 3535 3536 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT 3537 This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI 3538 expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the 3539 underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR 3540 flash), this value is ignored. 3541 3542 NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM 3543 (Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime. 3544 The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks 3545 then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)", 3546 which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total 3547 count of eraseblocks on the chip). 3548 3549 To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to 3550 reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks 3551 handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire 3552 NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means 3553 that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad 3554 eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same 3555 size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a 3556 partition. 3557 3558 default: 20 3559 3560 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP 3561 Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device 3562 in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it 3563 only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device. 3564 The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach 3565 the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where 3566 attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install 3567 a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter 3568 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note 3569 that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations 3570 without fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap 3571 fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps. 3572 3573 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT 3574 Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images 3575 without a fastmap. 3576 default: 0 3577 3578- UBIFS support 3579 CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS 3580 3581 Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as 3582 UBIFS. UBIFS is read-only in u-boot. 3583 3584 Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO 3585 3586 CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG 3587 3588 Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing. This leaves 3589 warnings and errors enabled. 3590 3591- SPL framework 3592 CONFIG_SPL 3593 Enable building of SPL globally. 3594 3595 CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT 3596 LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary. 3597 3598 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT 3599 Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included. 3600 When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory 3601 used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it. 3602 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 3603 must not be both defined at the same time. 3604 3605 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE 3606 Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and 3607 linker lists sections), BSS excluded. 3608 When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does 3609 not exceed it. 3610 3611 CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE 3612 TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary. 3613 3614 CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE 3615 Address to relocate to. If unspecified, this is equal to 3616 CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done). 3617 3618 CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR 3619 Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary. 3620 3621 CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 3622 Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS. 3623 When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used 3624 by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it. 3625 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 3626 must not be both defined at the same time. 3627 3628 CONFIG_SPL_STACK 3629 Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use 3630 3631 CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK 3632 Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after 3633 relocation. If unspecified, this is equal to 3634 CONFIG_SPL_STACK. 3635 3636 CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START 3637 Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL. 3638 3639 CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE 3640 The size of the malloc pool used in SPL. 3641 3642 CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK 3643 Enable the SPL framework under common/. This framework 3644 supports MMC, NAND and YMODEM loading of U-Boot and NAND 3645 NAND loading of the Linux Kernel. 3646 3647 CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT 3648 Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL. 3649 See also: doc/README.falcon 3650 3651 CONFIG_SPL_DISPLAY_PRINT 3652 For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information 3653 about the running system. 3654 3655 CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL 3656 Arch init code should be built for a very small image 3657 3658 CONFIG_SPL_LIBCOMMON_SUPPORT 3659 Support for common/libcommon.o in SPL binary 3660 3661 CONFIG_SPL_LIBDISK_SUPPORT 3662 Support for disk/libdisk.o in SPL binary 3663 3664 CONFIG_SPL_I2C_SUPPORT 3665 Support for drivers/i2c/libi2c.o in SPL binary 3666 3667 CONFIG_SPL_GPIO_SUPPORT 3668 Support for drivers/gpio/libgpio.o in SPL binary 3669 3670 CONFIG_SPL_MMC_SUPPORT 3671 Support for drivers/mmc/libmmc.o in SPL binary 3672 3673 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_SECTOR, 3674 CONFIG_SYS_U_BOOT_MAX_SIZE_SECTORS, 3675 Address and partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from 3676 when the MMC is being used in raw mode. 3677 3678 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION 3679 Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being 3680 used in raw mode 3681 3682 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR 3683 Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being 3684 used in raw mode (for Falcon mode) 3685 3686 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR, 3687 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS 3688 Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument 3689 parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode 3690 (for falcon mode) 3691 3692 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION 3693 Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being 3694 used in fs mode 3695 3696 CONFIG_SPL_FAT_SUPPORT 3697 Support for fs/fat/libfat.o in SPL binary 3698 3699 CONFIG_SPL_EXT_SUPPORT 3700 Support for EXT filesystem in SPL binary 3701 3702 CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_PAYLOAD_NAME 3703 Filename to read to load U-Boot when reading from filesystem 3704 3705 CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_KERNEL_NAME 3706 Filename to read to load kernel uImage when reading 3707 from filesystem (for Falcon mode) 3708 3709 CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_ARGS_NAME 3710 Filename to read to load kernel argument parameters 3711 when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode) 3712 3713 CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND 3714 Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that 3715 start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before 3716 continuing (the hardware starts execution after just 3717 loading the first page rather than the full 4K). 3718 3719 CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE 3720 Avoid SPL relocation 3721 3722 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE 3723 Include nand_base.c in the SPL. Requires 3724 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS. 3725 3726 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS 3727 SPL uses normal NAND drivers, not minimal drivers. 3728 3729 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC 3730 Include standard software ECC in the SPL 3731 3732 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE 3733 Support for NAND boot using simple NAND drivers that 3734 expose the cmd_ctrl() interface. 3735 3736 CONFIG_SPL_MTD_SUPPORT 3737 Support for the MTD subsystem within SPL. Useful for 3738 environment on NAND support within SPL. 3739 3740 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY 3741 Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only 3742 if you need to save space. 3743 3744 CONFIG_SPL_MPC8XXX_INIT_DDR_SUPPORT 3745 Set for the SPL on PPC mpc8xxx targets, support for 3746 drivers/ddr/fsl/libddr.o in SPL binary. 3747 3748 CONFIG_SPL_COMMON_INIT_DDR 3749 Set for common ddr init with serial presence detect in 3750 SPL binary. 3751 3752 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT, 3753 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE, 3754 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS, 3755 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE, 3756 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES 3757 Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses 3758 to read U-Boot 3759 3760 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT 3761 Add support NAND boot 3762 3763 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS 3764 Location in NAND to read U-Boot from 3765 3766 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST 3767 Location in memory to load U-Boot to 3768 3769 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE 3770 Size of image to load 3771 3772 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START 3773 Entry point in loaded image to jump to 3774 3775 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST 3776 Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the 3777 data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms. 3778 3779 CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND 3780 Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the 3781 ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present. 3782 3783 CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT 3784 Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary 3785 3786 CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT 3787 Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary 3788 3789 CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUPPORT 3790 Support for drivers/spi/libspi.o in SPL binary 3791 3792 CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE 3793 Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary 3794 3795 CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT 3796 Support for lib/libgeneric.o in SPL binary 3797 3798 CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT 3799 Support for the environment operating in SPL binary 3800 3801 CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT 3802 Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary. 3803 It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by 3804 CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE 3805 3806 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO 3807 Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending 3808 the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as 3809 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3810 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3811 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3812 3813 CONFIG_SPL_TARGET 3814 Final target image containing SPL and payload. Some SPLs 3815 use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for 3816 example if more than one image needs to be produced. 3817 3818 CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT 3819 Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of 3820 code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this 3821 option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the 3822 bootm command when booting a FIT image. 3823 3824- TPL framework 3825 CONFIG_TPL 3826 Enable building of TPL globally. 3827 3828 CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO 3829 Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending 3830 the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as 3831 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3832 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3833 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3834 3835Modem Support: 3836-------------- 3837 3838[so far only for SMDK2400 boards] 3839 3840- Modem support enable: 3841 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT 3842 3843- RTS/CTS Flow control enable: 3844 CONFIG_HWFLOW 3845 3846- Modem debug support: 3847 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG 3848 3849 Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg()) 3850 for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000. 3851 3852- Interrupt support (PPC): 3853 3854 There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt() 3855 for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu() 3856 for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu() 3857 should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If 3858 CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt 3859 (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero. 3860 timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU 3861 specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led 3862 / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from 3863 general timer_interrupt(). 3864 3865- General: 3866 3867 In the target system modem support is enabled when a 3868 specific key (key combination) is pressed during 3869 power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally 3870 (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from 3871 board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy 3872 function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem 3873 initialization. 3874 3875 If there are no modem init strings in the 3876 environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the 3877 previous output (banner, info printfs) will be 3878 suppressed, though. 3879 3880 See also: doc/README.Modem 3881 3882Board initialization settings: 3883------------------------------ 3884 3885During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions 3886to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup 3887before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the 3888following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is 3889architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c 3890typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). 3891 3892- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() 3893- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() 3894- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() 3895- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() 3896 3897Configuration Settings: 3898----------------------- 3899 3900- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit. 3901 Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands. 3902 3903- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included; 3904 undefine this when you're short of memory. 3905 3906- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default 3907 width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output. 3908 3909- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to 3910 prompt for user input. 3911 3912- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console 3913 3914- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output 3915 3916- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands 3917 3918- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to 3919 the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is 3920 booted 3921 3922- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE: 3923 List of legal baudrate settings for this board. 3924 3925- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET 3926 Suppress display of console information at boot. 3927 3928- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 3929 If the board specific function 3930 extern int overwrite_console (void); 3931 returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the 3932 serial port, else the settings in the environment are used. 3933 3934- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE 3935 Enable the call to overwrite_console(). 3936 3937- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE 3938 Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings. 3939 3940- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END: 3941 Begin and End addresses of the area used by the 3942 simple memory test. 3943 3944- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST: 3945 Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test. 3946 3947- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH: 3948 Scratch address used by the alternate memory test 3949 You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable 3950 3951- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only): 3952 If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, 3953 this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top 3954 (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By 3955 fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed 3956 the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either. 3957 This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux 3958 board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that 3959 recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup 3960 will have to get fixed in Linux additionally. 3961 3962 This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx 3963 CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't 3964 be touched. 3965 3966 WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of 3967 the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case, 3968 then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a 3969 non page size aligned address and this could cause major 3970 problems. 3971 3972- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE: 3973 Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download 3974 3975- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE: 3976 Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here. 3977 3978- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE: 3979 Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a 3980 Cogent motherboard) 3981 3982- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE: 3983 Physical start address of Flash memory. 3984 3985- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE: 3986 Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by 3987 make config files to be same as the text base address 3988 (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as 3989 CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash. 3990 3991- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN: 3992 Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to 3993 determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is 3994 embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate 3995 flash sector. 3996 3997- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN: 3998 Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use. 3999 4000- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN 4001 Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If 4002 this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation 4003 will become available before relocation. The address is just 4004 below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make 4005 space. 4006 4007 This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses 4008 within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc() 4009 is not available. free() is supported but does nothing. 4010 The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when 4011 U-Boot relocates itself. 4012 4013 Pre-relocation malloc() is only supported on ARM and sandbox 4014 at present but is fairly easy to enable for other archs. 4015 4016- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE 4017 Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those 4018 boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is 4019 enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START). 4020 4021- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY: 4022 Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be 4023 typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped 4024 uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would 4025 otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For 4026 some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the 4027 cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed 4028 are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding 4029 cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e. 4030 if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the 4031 size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of 4032 one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has 4033 written to another region in the same cache-line. This can 4034 happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for 4035 buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g. 4036 16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes). 4037 4038 Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present. 4039 4040- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN: 4041 Normally compressed uImages are limited to an 4042 uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough, 4043 you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file 4044 to adjust this setting to your needs. 4045 4046- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ: 4047 Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of 4048 the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by 4049 the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if 4050 used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low" 4051 environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case 4052 all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low" 4053 and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment 4054 variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of 4055 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined, 4056 then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead. 4057 4058- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH: 4059 Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the 4060 initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand 4061 is enabled. 4062 4063- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE: 4064 Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between 4065 "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 4066 4067- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD: 4068 Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in 4069 space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 4070 4071- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS: 4072 Max number of Flash memory banks 4073 4074- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT: 4075 Max number of sectors on a Flash chip 4076 4077- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT: 4078 Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms) 4079 4080- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT: 4081 Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms) 4082 4083- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT 4084 Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms) 4085 4086- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT 4087 Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms) 4088 4089- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION 4090 If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used 4091 instead of U-Boot software protection. 4092 4093- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP: 4094 4095 Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory; 4096 without this option such a download has to be 4097 performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2) 4098 copy from RAM to flash. 4099 4100 The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since 4101 you can check if the download worked before you erase 4102 the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is 4103 too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the 4104 downloaded image) this option may be very useful. 4105 4106- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI: 4107 Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the 4108 common flash structure for storing flash geometry. 4109 4110- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER 4111 This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver 4112 in the drivers directory 4113 4114- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD 4115 This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver 4116 in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash 4117 to the MTD layer. 4118 4119- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE 4120 Use buffered writes to flash. 4121 4122- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N 4123 s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered 4124 write commands. 4125 4126- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST 4127 If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't 4128 print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This 4129 is useful, if some of the configured banks are only 4130 optionally available. 4131 4132- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS 4133 If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown 4134 digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80 4135 column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays. 4136 4137- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY 4138 If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared 4139 against the source after the write operation. An error message 4140 will be printed when the contents are not identical. 4141 Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases, 4142 since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier 4143 while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable 4144 this option if you really know what you are doing. 4145 4146- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER: 4147 Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some 4148 Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value 4149 to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all 4150 buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface 4151 on high Ethernet traffic. 4152 Defaults to 4 if not defined. 4153 4154- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES 4155 4156 Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used 4157 internally to store the environment settings. The default 4158 setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most 4159 cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see 4160 lib/hashtable.c for details. 4161 4162- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 4163- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 4164 Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when 4165 calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal, 4166 hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined, 4167 the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address. 4168 4169 The format of the list is: 4170 type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m] 4171 access_attribute = [a|r|o|c] 4172 attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute] 4173 entry = variable_name[:attributes] 4174 list = entry[,list] 4175 4176 The type attributes are: 4177 s - String (default) 4178 d - Decimal 4179 x - Hexadecimal 4180 b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF]) 4181 i - IP address 4182 m - MAC address 4183 4184 The access attributes are: 4185 a - Any (default) 4186 r - Read-only 4187 o - Write-once 4188 c - Change-default 4189 4190 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 4191 Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags" 4192 environment variable in the default or embedded environment. 4193 4194 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 4195 Define this to a list (string) to define validation that 4196 should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags" 4197 environment variable. To override a setting in the static 4198 list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the 4199 ".flags" variable. 4200 4201- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE 4202 If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable 4203 access flags. 4204 4205- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD 4206 This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the 4207 architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards 4208 to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the 4209 arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and 4210 common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture 4211 must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in 4212 its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on 4213 your board please report the problem and send patches! 4214 4215- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only) 4216 This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should 4217 be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how 4218 the value can be calculated on a given board. 4219 4220- CONFIG_USE_STDINT 4221 If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this 4222 option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when 4223 building U-Boot to enable this. 4224 4225The following definitions that deal with the placement and management 4226of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the 4227following configurations: 4228 4229- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC: 4230 4231 Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils 4232 may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images. 4233 4234- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH: 4235 4236 Define this if the environment is in flash memory. 4237 4238 a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is 4239 "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This 4240 happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot 4241 sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller 4242 sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a 4243 layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In 4244 such a case you would place the environment in one of the 4245 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With 4246 "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the 4247 environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap 4248 between U-Boot and the environment. 4249 4250 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4251 4252 Offset of environment data (variable area) to the 4253 beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot 4254 type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset 4255 for this sector is given here. 4256 4257 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE. 4258 4259 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 4260 4261 This is just another way to specify the start address of 4262 the flash sector containing the environment (instead of 4263 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET). 4264 4265 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: 4266 4267 Size of the sector containing the environment. 4268 4269 4270 b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. 4271 In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for 4272 the environment. 4273 4274 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4275 4276 If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 4277 and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part 4278 of this flash sector for the environment. This saves 4279 memory for the RAM copy of the environment. 4280 4281 It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this 4282 when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, 4283 since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used 4284 for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is 4285 STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view: 4286 updating the environment in flash makes it always 4287 necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes 4288 wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in 4289 RAM, your target system will be dead. 4290 4291 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND 4292 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND 4293 4294 These settings describe a second storage area used to hold 4295 a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is 4296 a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during 4297 a "saveenv" operation. 4298 4299BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the 4300source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds* 4301accordingly! 4302 4303 4304- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM: 4305 4306 Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device 4307 (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the 4308 environment. 4309 4310 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 4311 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4312 4313 These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you 4314 want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory 4315 can just be read and written to, without any special 4316 provision. 4317 4318BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early 4319in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the 4320console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or 4321U-Boot will hang. 4322 4323Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the 4324environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to 4325keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv" 4326to save the current settings. 4327 4328 4329- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM: 4330 4331 Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access 4332 device and a driver for it. 4333 4334 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4335 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4336 4337 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the 4338 environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM. 4339 4340 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR: 4341 If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device. 4342 The default address is zero. 4343 4344 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS: 4345 If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a 4346 single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example 4347 would require six bits. 4348 4349 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS: 4350 If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between 4351 page writes. The default is zero milliseconds. 4352 4353 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN: 4354 The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note 4355 that this is NOT the chip address length! 4356 4357 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW: 4358 EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones 4359 like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of 4360 address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit 4361 slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256 4362 byte chips. 4363 4364 Note that we consider the length of the address field to 4365 still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden 4366 in the chip address. 4367 4368 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE: 4369 The size in bytes of the EEPROM device. 4370 4371 - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C 4372 define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your 4373 EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus. 4374 4375 - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 4376 if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over 4377 I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this 4378 EEPROM. For example: 4379 4380 #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 1 4381 4382 EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over 4383 a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3. 4384 4385- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH: 4386 4387 Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you 4388 want to use for the environment. 4389 4390 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4391 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 4392 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4393 4394 These three #defines specify the offset and size of the 4395 environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed 4396 at the specified address. 4397 4398- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH: 4399 4400 Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you 4401 want to use for the environment. 4402 4403 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4404 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4405 4406 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the 4407 environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be 4408 aligned to an erase sector boundary. 4409 4410 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: 4411 4412 Define the SPI flash's sector size. 4413 4414 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 4415 4416 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE 4417 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so 4418 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure 4419 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be 4420 aligned to an erase sector boundary. 4421 4422 - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional): 4423 - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional): 4424 4425 Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0. 4426 4427 - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional): 4428 4429 Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz. 4430 4431 - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional): 4432 4433 Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3. 4434 4435- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE: 4436 4437 Define this if you have a remote memory space which you 4438 want to use for the local device's environment. 4439 4440 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 4441 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4442 4443 These two #defines specify the address and size of the 4444 environment area within the remote memory space. The 4445 local device can get the environment from remote memory 4446 space by SRIO or PCIE links. 4447 4448BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use 4449"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the 4450environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link, 4451but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface. 4452 4453- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND: 4454 4455 Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use 4456 for the environment. 4457 4458 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4459 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4460 4461 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 4462 area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be 4463 aligned to an erase block boundary. 4464 4465 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 4466 4467 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE 4468 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so 4469 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure 4470 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be 4471 aligned to an erase block boundary. 4472 4473 - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional): 4474 4475 Specifies the length of the region in which the environment 4476 can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's 4477 block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than 4478 are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within 4479 the range to be avoided. 4480 4481 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional): 4482 4483 Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the 4484 environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The 4485 "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset. 4486 Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when 4487 using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB. 4488 4489- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST 4490 4491 Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the 4492 environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to 4493 CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 4494 4495- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI: 4496 4497 Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the 4498 environment. This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment 4499 accesses, which is important on NAND. 4500 4501 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART: 4502 4503 Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI. 4504 4505 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME: 4506 4507 Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the 4508 environment in. 4509 4510 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND: 4511 4512 Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of 4513 the environment in. This will enable redundant environments in UBI. 4514 It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition. 4515 4516 - CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG 4517 - CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG 4518 4519 You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system 4520 when storing the env in UBI. 4521 4522- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT: 4523 Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment. 4524 4525 - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE: 4526 4527 Define this to a string that is the name of the block device. 4528 4529 - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART: 4530 4531 Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can 4532 be as following: 4533 4534 "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1) 4535 - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no 4536 partition table. 4537 - "D:0": device D. 4538 - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition 4539 table, or the whole device D if has no partition 4540 table. 4541 - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set. 4542 If none, first valid partition in device D. If no 4543 partition table then means device D. 4544 4545 - FAT_ENV_FILE: 4546 4547 It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the 4548 environment. 4549 4550 - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE: 4551 This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the environment file. 4552 4553- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC: 4554 4555 Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the 4556 environment. 4557 4558 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV: 4559 4560 Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in. 4561 4562 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional): 4563 4564 Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not 4565 set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be 4566 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition). 4567 4568 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4569 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4570 4571 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 4572 area within the specified MMC device. 4573 4574 If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to 4575 the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated 4576 as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if 4577 your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have 4578 different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the 4579 environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the 4580 maximum possible space before it, to store other data. 4581 4582 These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an 4583 MMC sector boundary. 4584 4585 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 4586 4587 Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to 4588 hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a 4589 valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due 4590 to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation. 4591 4592 This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the 4593 same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET. 4594 4595 This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to 4596 an MMC sector boundary. 4597 4598 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional): 4599 4600 This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is 4601 set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as 4602 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 4603 4604- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET 4605 4606 Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The 4607 area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment 4608 is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte 4609 scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization 4610 calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems 4611 to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the 4612 start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer. 4613 4614Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor 4615has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been 4616created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f() 4617until then to read environment variables. 4618 4619The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor 4620is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working 4621with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is 4622necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the 4623"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't 4624have any device yet where we could complain.] 4625 4626Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if 4627the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you 4628use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment. 4629 4630- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN: 4631 Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED. 4632 4633 Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR 4634 also needs to be defined. 4635 4636- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR: 4637 MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state. 4638 4639- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS: 4640 Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init 4641 and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at 4642 drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving 4643 space for already greatly restricted images, including but not 4644 limited to NAND_SPL configurations. 4645 4646- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO 4647 Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on 4648 when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called 4649 to do this. 4650 4651- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE 4652 Similar to the previous option, but display this information 4653 later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if 4654 present. 4655 4656- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT: 4657 Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the 4658 build system checks that the actual size does not 4659 exceed it. 4660 4661Low Level (hardware related) configuration options: 4662--------------------------------------------------- 4663 4664- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE: 4665 Cache Line Size of the CPU. 4666 4667- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR: 4668 Default address of the IMMR after system reset. 4669 4670 Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU, 4671 and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of 4672 the IMMR register after a reset. 4673 4674- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT: 4675 Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale 4676 PowerPC SOCs. 4677 4678- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR: 4679 Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically 4680 the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. 4681 4682 CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value, 4683 for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead. 4684 4685- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS: 4686 Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new 4687 physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should 4688 be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the 4689 same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR 4690 is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended 4691 that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros: 4692 4693 #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH 4694 * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW) 4695 4696- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH: 4697 Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically 4698 either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is 4699 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 4700 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 4701 4702- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW: 4703 Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is 4704 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 4705 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 4706 4707- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE: 4708 If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be 4709 forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated. 4710 4711- Floppy Disk Support: 4712 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER 4713 4714 the default drive number (default value 0) 4715 4716 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE 4717 4718 defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers 4719 (default value 1) 4720 4721 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET 4722 4723 defines the offset of register from address. It 4724 depends on which part of the data bus is connected to 4725 the FDC chipset. (default value 0) 4726 4727 If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and 4728 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their 4729 default value. 4730 4731 if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function 4732 fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC 4733 setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board 4734 source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent 4735 initializations. 4736 4737- CONFIG_IDE_AHB: 4738 Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI 4739 interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface. 4740 When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to 4741 IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional 4742 registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller 4743 is required. 4744 4745- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory. 4746 DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're 4747 doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only] 4748 4749- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR: 4750 4751 Start address of memory area that can be used for 4752 initial data and stack; please note that this must be 4753 writable memory that is working WITHOUT special 4754 initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which 4755 will become available only after programming the 4756 memory controller and running certain initialization 4757 sequences. 4758 4759 U-Boot uses the following memory types: 4760 - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU) 4761 - MPC824X: data cache 4762 - PPC4xx: data cache 4763 4764- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET: 4765 4766 Offset of the initial data structure in the memory 4767 area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually 4768 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial 4769 data is located at the end of the available space 4770 (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - 4771 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just 4772 below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + 4773 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward. 4774 4775 Note: 4776 On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data 4777 cache for initial memory) the address chosen for 4778 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must 4779 point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between 4780 the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space. 4781 4782- CONFIG_SYS_SIUMCR: SIU Module Configuration (11-6) 4783 4784- CONFIG_SYS_SYPCR: System Protection Control (11-9) 4785 4786- CONFIG_SYS_TBSCR: Time Base Status and Control (11-26) 4787 4788- CONFIG_SYS_PISCR: Periodic Interrupt Status and Control (11-31) 4789 4790- CONFIG_SYS_PLPRCR: PLL, Low-Power, and Reset Control Register (15-30) 4791 4792- CONFIG_SYS_SCCR: System Clock and reset Control Register (15-27) 4793 4794- CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM: 4795 SDRAM timing 4796 4797- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA: 4798 periodic timer for refresh 4799 4800- CONFIG_SYS_DER: Debug Event Register (37-47) 4801 4802- FLASH_BASE0_PRELIM, FLASH_BASE1_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_REMAP_OR_AM, 4803 CONFIG_SYS_PRELIM_OR_AM, CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_FLASH, CONFIG_SYS_OR0_REMAP, 4804 CONFIG_SYS_OR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_REMAP, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_PRELIM, 4805 CONFIG_SYS_BR1_PRELIM: 4806 Memory Controller Definitions: BR0/1 and OR0/1 (FLASH) 4807 4808- SDRAM_BASE2_PRELIM, SDRAM_BASE3_PRELIM, SDRAM_MAX_SIZE, 4809 CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM, CONFIG_SYS_OR2_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR2_PRELIM, 4810 CONFIG_SYS_OR3_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR3_PRELIM: 4811 Memory Controller Definitions: BR2/3 and OR2/3 (SDRAM) 4812 4813- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_8K, 4814 CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_8K, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_8COL, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_9COL: 4815 Machine Mode Register and Memory Periodic Timer 4816 Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing) 4817 4818- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4819 enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4820 define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2] 4821 4822- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4823 enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4824 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1] 4825 4826- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4827 enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4828 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4] 4829 4830- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK: 4831 Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful, 4832 wrong setting might damage your board. Read 4833 doc/README.MBX before setting this variable! 4834 4835- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only) 4836 Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post 4837 (Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides 4838 #define'd default value in commproc.h resp. 4839 cpm_8260.h. 4840 4841- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, 4842 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL, 4843 CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK1_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_BUS, 4844 CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_MEM_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, 4845 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_BUS, CPU_PCI_MEMIO_START, 4846 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR1_MASK_ATTRIB, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_LOCAL, 4847 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_IO_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_SIZE, 4848 CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only) 4849 Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set. 4850 4851- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE: 4852 Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not 4853 required. 4854 4855- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY 4856 Only scan through and get the devices on the buses. 4857 Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or 4858 something has already done it, and we don't need to do it 4859 a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted 4860 by coreboot or similar. 4861 4862- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE: 4863 Enable support for indirect PCI bridges. 4864 4865- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO: 4866 Chip has SRIO or not 4867 4868- CONFIG_SRIO1: 4869 Board has SRIO 1 port available 4870 4871- CONFIG_SRIO2: 4872 Board has SRIO 2 port available 4873 4874- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER 4875 Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE 4876 4877- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT: 4878 Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4879 4880- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS: 4881 Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4882 4883- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE: 4884 Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4885 4886- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT 4887 Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using 4888 a 16 bit bus. 4889 Not all NAND drivers use this symbol. 4890 Example of drivers that use it: 4891 - drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c 4892 - drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c 4893 4894- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG 4895 Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined 4896 a default value will be used. 4897 4898- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM 4899 Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common 4900 with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs 4901 4902 SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS 4903 I2C address of the SPD EEPROM 4904 4905- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 4906 If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first 4907 one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve 4908 to something your driver can deal with. 4909 4910- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING 4911 Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with 4912 soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing 4913 parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into 4914 header files or board specific files. 4915 4916- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE 4917 Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr. 4918 4919- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0 4920 Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should 4921 be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3. 4922 4923- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12] 4924 Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor. 4925 4926- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY 4927 Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds 4928 to the given FEC; i. e. 4929 #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4 4930 means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1 4931 4932 When set to -1, means to probe for first available. 4933 4934- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR 4935 The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only). 4936 (so program the FEC to ignore it). 4937 4938- CONFIG_RMII 4939 Enable RMII mode for all FECs. 4940 Note that this is a global option, we can't 4941 have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode. 4942 4943- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY 4944 Add a verify option to the crc32 command. 4945 The syntax is: 4946 4947 => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32> 4948 4949 Where address/count indicate a memory area 4950 and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the 4951 area should have. 4952 4953- CONFIG_LOOPW 4954 Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if 4955 the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4956 4957- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC 4958 Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic 4959 "md/mw" commands. 4960 Examples: 4961 4962 => mdc.b 10 4 500 4963 This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms. 4964 4965 => mwc.l 100 12345678 10 4966 This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms. 4967 4968 This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated 4969 globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4970 4971- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT 4972 [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain 4973 low level initializations (like setting up the memory 4974 controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not 4975 relocate itself into RAM. 4976 4977 Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only 4978 exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some 4979 other boot loader or by a debugger which performs 4980 these initializations itself. 4981 4982- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD 4983 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4984 that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when 4985 compiling a NAND SPL. 4986 4987- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD 4988 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4989 that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot. 4990 It is loaded by the SPL. 4991 4992- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC 4993 Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section 4994 .resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the 4995 previous 4k of the .text section. 4996 4997- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM 4998 Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses 4999 effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard 5000 U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated 5001 to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since 5002 it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all 5003 addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses 5004 to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem(). 5005 5006- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY 5007 CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET 5008 If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will 5009 be used if available. These functions may be faster under some 5010 conditions but may increase the binary size. 5011 5012- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR 5013 If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not 5014 needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot. 5015 5016- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK 5017 Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz). 5018 5019 NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms. 5020 5021- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC: 5022 Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms 5023 5024- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE 5025 Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver 5026 driver that uses this: 5027 drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c 5028 5029Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: 5030----------------------------------- 5031 5032The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the 5033loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. 5034This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros 5035are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address 5036within that device. 5037 5038- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR 5039 The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located. The 5040 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro 5041 is also specified. 5042 5043- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR 5044 The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located. The 5045 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro 5046 is also specified. 5047 5048- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH 5049 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format 5050 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it 5051 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some 5052 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. 5053 5054- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR 5055 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as 5056 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the 5057 virtual address in NOR flash. 5058 5059- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND 5060 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. 5061 CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. 5062 5063- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC 5064 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC 5065 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 5066 5067- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH 5068 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI 5069 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 5070 5071- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE 5072 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master) 5073 memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which 5074 can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound 5075 window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in 5076 master's memory space. 5077 5078Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support: 5079--------------------------------------------------------- 5080The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of 5081"firmware". 5082This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros 5083are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address 5084within that device. 5085 5086- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET 5087 Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs. 5088 5089- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR 5090 The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The 5091 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro 5092 is also specified. 5093 5094- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH 5095 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format 5096 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it 5097 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some 5098 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. 5099 5100- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR 5101 Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as 5102 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the 5103 virtual address in NOR flash. 5104 5105Building the Software: 5106====================== 5107 5108Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments 5109and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support 5110all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all 5111(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we 5112recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK) 5113which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot. 5114 5115If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you 5116have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, 5117you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. 5118Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are 5119necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter: 5120 5121 $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- 5122 $ export CROSS_COMPILE 5123 5124Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in 5125 the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain 5126 (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW 5127 toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: 5128 5129 $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools 5130 5131 Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can 5132 be executed on computers running Windows. 5133 5134U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the 5135sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This 5136is done by typing: 5137 5138 make NAME_defconfig 5139 5140where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu- 5141rations; see boards.cfg for supported names. 5142 5143Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if 5144 additional information is available from the board vendor; for 5145 instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard) 5146 or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features" 5147 when choosing the configuration, i. e. 5148 5149 make TQM823L_defconfig 5150 - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support 5151 5152 make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig 5153 - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD 5154 5155 etc. 5156 5157 5158Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot 5159images ready for download to / installation on your system: 5160 5161- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image 5162- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format 5163- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format 5164 5165By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved 5166in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change 5167this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory: 5168 51691. Add O= to the make command line invocations: 5170 5171 make O=/tmp/build distclean 5172 make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig 5173 make O=/tmp/build all 5174 51752. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location: 5176 5177 export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build 5178 make distclean 5179 make NAME_defconfig 5180 make all 5181 5182Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment 5183variable. 5184 5185 5186Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so 5187for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of 5188native "make". 5189 5190 5191If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need 5192to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these 5193steps: 5194 51951. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel 5196 "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples. 5197 Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order. 51982. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any 5199 files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least 5200 the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds". 52013. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for 5202 your board 52033. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new 5204 directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. 52054. Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name. 52065. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file 5207 to be installed on your target system. 52086. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. 5209 [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] 5210 5211 5212Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: 5213============================================================== 5214 5215If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board 5216or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to 5217provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes 5218the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest 5219official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources. 5220 5221But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- 5222cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of 5223the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, 5224just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot 5225for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can 5226select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE' 5227environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools 5228you can type 5229 5230 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 5231 5232or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type 5233 5234 CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL 5235 5236When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build 5237U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by 5238setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target 5239built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and 5240<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default 5241location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment 5242variable. For example: 5243 5244 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 5245 export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log 5246 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 5247 5248With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build, 5249log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean 5250during the whole build process. 5251 5252 5253See also "U-Boot Porting Guide" below. 5254 5255 5256Monitor Commands - Overview: 5257============================ 5258 5259go - start application at address 'addr' 5260run - run commands in an environment variable 5261bootm - boot application image from memory 5262bootp - boot image via network using BootP/TFTP protocol 5263bootz - boot zImage from memory 5264tftpboot- boot image via network using TFTP protocol 5265 and env variables "ipaddr" and "serverip" 5266 (and eventually "gatewayip") 5267tftpput - upload a file via network using TFTP protocol 5268rarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol 5269diskboot- boot from IDE devicebootd - boot default, i.e., run 'bootcmd' 5270loads - load S-Record file over serial line 5271loadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode) 5272md - memory display 5273mm - memory modify (auto-incrementing) 5274nm - memory modify (constant address) 5275mw - memory write (fill) 5276cp - memory copy 5277cmp - memory compare 5278crc32 - checksum calculation 5279i2c - I2C sub-system 5280sspi - SPI utility commands 5281base - print or set address offset 5282printenv- print environment variables 5283setenv - set environment variables 5284saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage 5285protect - enable or disable FLASH write protection 5286erase - erase FLASH memory 5287flinfo - print FLASH memory information 5288nand - NAND memory operations (see doc/README.nand) 5289bdinfo - print Board Info structure 5290iminfo - print header information for application image 5291coninfo - print console devices and informations 5292ide - IDE sub-system 5293loop - infinite loop on address range 5294loopw - infinite write loop on address range 5295mtest - simple RAM test 5296icache - enable or disable instruction cache 5297dcache - enable or disable data cache 5298reset - Perform RESET of the CPU 5299echo - echo args to console 5300version - print monitor version 5301help - print online help 5302? - alias for 'help' 5303 5304 5305Monitor Commands - Detailed Description: 5306======================================== 5307 5308TODO. 5309 5310For now: just type "help <command>". 5311 5312 5313Environment Variables: 5314====================== 5315 5316U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which 5317can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. 5318 5319Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using 5320"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv" 5321without a value can be used to delete a variable from the 5322environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are 5323working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the 5324environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided. 5325 5326Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables. 5327 5328List of environment variables (most likely not complete): 5329 5330 baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE 5331 5332 bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 5333 5334 bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 5335 5336 bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image 5337 5338 bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP 5339 5340 bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 5341 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 5342 a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed 5343 for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size" 5344 environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is 5345 also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux 5346 kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and 5347 bootm_mapsize. 5348 5349 bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel. 5350 This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it 5351 defines the size of the memory region starting at base 5352 address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel 5353 during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used 5354 as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is 5355 used otherwise. 5356 5357 bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 5358 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 5359 a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region 5360 allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low" 5361 environment variable. 5362 5363 updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used 5364 by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to 5365 documentation in doc/README.update for more details. 5366 5367 autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'), 5368 "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the 5369 configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to 5370 load any image using TFTP 5371 5372 autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp", 5373 "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will 5374 be automatically started (by internally calling 5375 "bootm") 5376 5377 If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the 5378 "bootm" command will be copied to the load address 5379 (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started. 5380 This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary 5381 data. 5382 5383 fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the 5384 flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot. 5385 For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory 5386 at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel 5387 only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you 5388 may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the 5389 device tree blob be copied to the maximum address 5390 of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can 5391 access it during the boot procedure. 5392 5393 If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then 5394 the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this 5395 to work it must reside in writable memory, have 5396 sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to 5397 add the information it needs into it, and the memory 5398 must be accessible by the kernel. 5399 5400 fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened 5401 device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is 5402 defined. 5403 5404 i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 5405 if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast 5406 mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in 5407 initialization code. So, for changes to be effective 5408 it must be saved and board must be reset. 5409 5410 initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images: 5411 If this variable is not set, initrd images will be 5412 copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this 5413 is usually what you want since it allows for 5414 maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to 5415 make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the 5416 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment 5417 variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0". 5418 Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper 5419 address to use (U-Boot will still check that it 5420 does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data). 5421 5422 For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB 5423 RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux, 5424 you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of 5425 the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make 5426 sure that the initrd image is placed in the first 5427 12 MB as well - this can be done with 5428 5429 setenv initrd_high 00c00000 5430 5431 If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an 5432 indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal 5433 for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash 5434 memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the 5435 ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the 5436 boot time on your system, but requires that this 5437 feature is supported by your Linux kernel. 5438 5439 ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command 5440 5441 loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp", 5442 "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot" 5443 5444 loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 5445 5446 serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command 5447 5448 bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 5449 5450 bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 5451 5452 bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 5453 5454 ethprime - controls which interface is used first. 5455 5456 ethact - controls which interface is currently active. 5457 For example you can do the following 5458 5459 => setenv ethact FEC 5460 => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC 5461 => setenv ethact SCC 5462 => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC 5463 5464 ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all 5465 available network interfaces. 5466 It just stays at the currently selected interface. 5467 5468 netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will 5469 either succeed or fail without retrying. 5470 When set to "once" the network operation will 5471 fail when all the available network interfaces 5472 are tried once without success. 5473 Useful on scripts which control the retry operation 5474 themselves. 5475 5476 npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode 5477 5478 silent_linux - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by 5479 changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be 5480 made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If 5481 unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console 5482 is silent. 5483 5484 tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's 5485 UDP source port. 5486 5487 tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP 5488 destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69. 5489 5490 tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set, 5491 we use the TFTP server's default block size 5492 5493 tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli- 5494 seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines 5495 when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to 5496 be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds. 5497 Lowering this value may make downloads succeed 5498 faster in networks with high packet loss rates or 5499 with unreliable TFTP servers. 5500 5501 vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over 5502 Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q 5503 VLAN tagged frames. 5504 5505The following image location variables contain the location of images 5506used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is 5507not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment 5508variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP 5509server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be 5510loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR 5511flash or offset in NAND flash. 5512 5513*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some 5514boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some 5515boards use these variables for other purposes. 5516 5517Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location 5518----- --------- ----------- -------------- 5519u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr 5520Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr 5521device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr 5522ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr 5523 5524The following environment variables may be used and automatically 5525updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"), 5526depending the information provided by your boot server: 5527 5528 bootfile - see above 5529 dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server 5530 dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server 5531 gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use 5532 hostname - Target hostname 5533 ipaddr - see above 5534 netmask - Subnet Mask 5535 rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server 5536 serverip - see above 5537 5538 5539There are two special Environment Variables: 5540 5541 serial# - contains hardware identification information such 5542 as type string and/or serial number 5543 ethaddr - Ethernet address 5544 5545These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of 5546the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables 5547once they have been set once. 5548 5549 5550Further special Environment Variables: 5551 5552 ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed 5553 with the "version" command. This variable is 5554 readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE). 5555 5556 5557Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take 5558only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-). 5559 5560 5561Callback functions for environment variables: 5562--------------------------------------------- 5563 5564For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change 5565when their values are changed. This functionality allows functions to 5566be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or 5567deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side 5568effect to happen or for the change to be rejected. 5569 5570The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the 5571U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code. 5572 5573These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The 5574static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC 5575in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of 5576associations. The list must be in the following format: 5577 5578 entry = variable_name[:callback_name] 5579 list = entry[,list] 5580 5581If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted. 5582Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list. 5583 5584Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable 5585with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will 5586override any association in the static list. You can define 5587CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the 5588".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment. 5589 5590 5591Command Line Parsing: 5592===================== 5593 5594There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot: 5595the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell: 5596 5597Old, simple command line parser: 5598-------------------------------- 5599 5600- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands) 5601- several commands on one line, separated by ';' 5602- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax 5603- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\', 5604 for example: 5605 setenv bootcmd bootm \${address} 5606- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example: 5607 setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off' 5608 5609Hush shell: 5610----------- 5611 5612- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like 5613 if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done, 5614 until...do...done, ... 5615- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv 5616 commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax 5617 "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run" 5618 command 5619 5620General rules: 5621-------------- 5622 5623(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run" 5624 command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and 5625 one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be 5626 executed anyway. 5627 5628(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e. 5629 calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing 5630 command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining 5631 variables are not executed. 5632 5633Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces: 5634======================================= 5635 5636Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports 5637such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a 5638"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows: 5639 5640Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding 5641MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0), 5642"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ... 5643 5644If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance 5645in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon- 5646ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment 5647variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means: 5648 5649o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the 5650 environment, the SROM's address is used. 5651 5652o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the 5653 environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is 5654 used. 5655 5656o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and 5657 both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used. 5658 5659o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the 5660 addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a 5661 warning is printed. 5662 5663o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error 5664 is raised. 5665 5666If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses 5667will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This 5668may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable. 5669The naming convention is as follows: 5670"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc. 5671 5672Image Formats: 5673============== 5674 5675U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) 5676images in two formats: 5677 5678New uImage format (FIT) 5679----------------------- 5680 5681Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar 5682to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple 5683components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by 5684SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory. 5685 5686 5687Old uImage format 5688----------------- 5689 5690Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything, 5691preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for 5692details; basically, the header defines the following image properties: 5693 5694* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, 5695 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks, 5696 LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY; 5697 Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS, 5698 INTEGRITY). 5699* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, 5700 IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; 5701 Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC). 5702* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2) 5703* Load Address 5704* Entry Point 5705* Image Name 5706* Image Timestamp 5707 5708The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header 5709and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by 5710CRC32 checksums. 5711 5712 5713Linux Support: 5714============== 5715 5716Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application 5717easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of 5718U-Boot. 5719 5720U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some 5721special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any 5722"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image; 5723instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation 5724serves several purposes: 5725 5726- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone 5727 applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the 5728 Flash memory footprint) 5729 5730- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because 5731 lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot 5732 5733- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd" 5734 images; of course this also means that different kernel images can 5735 be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't 5736 have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just 5737 change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the 5738 software is easier now. 5739 5740 5741Linux HOWTO: 5742============ 5743 5744Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems: 5745--------------------------------------- 5746 5747U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to 5748configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware 5749(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to 5750Linux :-). 5751 5752But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot). 5753 5754Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance 5755include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board 5756Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h, 5757and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value 5758as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR. 5759 5760Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers. 5761If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there 5762is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See 5763doc/driver-model. 5764 5765 5766Configuring the Linux kernel: 5767----------------------------- 5768 5769No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root 5770device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system. 5771 5772 5773Building a Linux Image: 5774----------------------- 5775 5776With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are 5777not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target 5778"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by 5779U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target, 5780which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a 5781100% compatible format. 5782 5783Example: 5784 5785 make TQM850L_defconfig 5786 make oldconfig 5787 make dep 5788 make uImage 5789 5790The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to 5791encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information, 5792CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing: 5793 5794* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format): 5795 5796* convert the kernel into a raw binary image: 5797 5798 ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \ 5799 -R .note -R .comment \ 5800 -S vmlinux linux.bin 5801 5802* compress the binary image: 5803 5804 gzip -9 linux.bin 5805 5806* package compressed binary image for U-Boot: 5807 5808 mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \ 5809 -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \ 5810 -d linux.bin.gz uImage 5811 5812 5813The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use 5814with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or 5815combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64 5816byte header containing information about target architecture, 5817operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time 5818stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc. 5819 5820"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and 5821print the header information, or to build new images. 5822 5823In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information 5824contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes 5825checksum verification: 5826 5827 tools/mkimage -l image 5828 -l ==> list image header information 5829 5830The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image 5831from a "data file" which is used as image payload: 5832 5833 tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \ 5834 -n name -d data_file image 5835 -A ==> set architecture to 'arch' 5836 -O ==> set operating system to 'os' 5837 -T ==> set image type to 'type' 5838 -C ==> set compression type 'comp' 5839 -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex) 5840 -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex) 5841 -n ==> set image name to 'name' 5842 -d ==> use image data from 'datafile' 5843 5844Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load 5845address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the 5846kernel version: 5847 5848- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C, 5849- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000. 5850 5851So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read: 5852 5853 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5854 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \ 5855 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \ 5856 > examples/uImage.TQM850L 5857 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5858 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5859 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5860 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5861 Load Address: 0x00000000 5862 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5863 5864To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption): 5865 5866 -> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L 5867 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5868 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5869 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5870 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5871 Load Address: 0x00000000 5872 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5873 5874NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade 5875speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this 5876needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not 5877need to be uncompressed: 5878 5879 -> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz 5880 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5881 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \ 5882 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \ 5883 > examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed 5884 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5885 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5886 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) 5887 Data Size: 792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB 5888 Load Address: 0x00000000 5889 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5890 5891 5892Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file 5893when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk: 5894 5895 -> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \ 5896 > -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \ 5897 > -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd 5898 Image Name: Simple Ramdisk Image 5899 Created: Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000 5900 Image Type: PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed) 5901 Data Size: 566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB 5902 Load Address: 0x00000000 5903 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5904 5905The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i" 5906option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d" 5907option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file" 5908from the image: 5909 5910 tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file 5911 -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file' 5912 -T ==> set image type to 'type' 5913 -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image' 5914 5915 5916Installing a Linux Image: 5917------------------------- 5918 5919To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface, 5920you must convert the image to S-Record format: 5921 5922 objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec 5923 5924The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot 5925image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to 5926address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to 5927specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads' 5928command. 5929 5930Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the 5931TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank): 5932 5933 => erase 40100000 401FFFFF 5934 5935 .......... done 5936 Erased 8 sectors 5937 5938 => loads 40100000 5939 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5940 ~>examples/image.srec 5941 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ... 5942 ... 5943 15989 15990 15991 15992 5944 [file transfer complete] 5945 [connected] 5946 ## Start Addr = 0x00000000 5947 5948 5949You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command; 5950this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data 5951corruption happened: 5952 5953 => imi 40100000 5954 5955 ## Checking Image at 40100000 ... 5956 Image Name: 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L 5957 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5958 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327 kB = 0 MB 5959 Load Address: 00000000 5960 Entry Point: 0000000c 5961 Verifying Checksum ...

Usually these programs 6107 will install their own set of exception handlers, device 6108 drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot 6109 expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU. 6110 "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their 6111 parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is 6112 being started. 6113 "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS 6114 (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like 6115 RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want 6116 to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot 6117 server provides just a single image file, but you want to get 6118 for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image. 6119 6120 "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each 6121 image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network 6122 byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0". 6123 Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by 6124 one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to 6125 a multiple of 4 bytes). 6126 6127 "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like 6128 U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to 6129 flash memory. 6130 6131 "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by 6132 U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially 6133 useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush) 6134 as command interpreter. 6135 6136Booting the Linux zImage: 6137------------------------- 6138 6139On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done 6140using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same 6141as the syntax of "bootm" command. 6142 6143Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply 6144kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the 6145address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following 6146format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>". 6147 6148 6149Standalone HOWTO: 6150================= 6151 6152One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and 6153run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of 6154U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services. 6155 6156Two simple examples are included with the sources: 6157 6158"Hello World" Demo: 6159------------------- 6160 6161'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo 6162application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot. 6163It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it 6164like that: 6165 6166 => loads 6167 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 6168 ~>examples/hello_world.srec 6169 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 6170 [file transfer complete] 6171 [connected] 6172 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 6173 6174 => go 40004 Hello World!

The application can be 6195controlled by the following keys: 6196 6197 ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers 6198 b - enable interrupts and start timer 6199 e - stop timer and disable interrupts 6200 q - quit application 6201 6202 => loads 6203 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 6204 ~>examples/timer.srec 6205 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 6206 [file transfer complete] 6207 [connected] 6208 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 6209 6210 => go 40004 6211 ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ... 6212 TIMERS=0xfff00980 6213 Using timer 1 6214 tgcr @ 0xfff00980, tmr @ 0xfff00990, trr @ 0xfff00994, tcr @ 0xfff00998, tcn @ 0xfff0099c, ter @ 0xfff009b0 6215 6216Hit 'b': 6217 [q, b, e, ?] Set interval 1000000 us 6218 Enabling timer 6219Hit '?': 6220 [q, b, e, ?] ........ 6221 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0xef6, ter=0x0 6222Hit '?': 6223 [q, b, e, ?] . 6224 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x2ad4, ter=0x0 6225Hit '?': 6226 [q, b, e, ?] . 6227 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x1efc, ter=0x0 6228Hit '?': 6229 [q, b, e, ?] . 6230 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x169d, ter=0x0 6231Hit 'e': 6232 [q, b, e, ?] ...Stopping timer 6233Hit 'q': 6234 [q, b, e, ?] ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0 6235 6236 6237Minicom warning: 6238================ 6239 6240Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the 6241"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd) 6242consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under 6243Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and 6244especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and 6245use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See 6246http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3. 6247for help with kermit. 6248 6249 6250Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this 6251configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section: 6252 6253 Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red.

This file has to be installed and patched manually: 6270 6271 # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include 6272 # mkdir powerpc 6273 # ln -s powerpc machine 6274 # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h 6275 # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST 6276 6277Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native 6278and U-Boot include files. 6279 6280Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a 6281stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel 6282proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source 6283tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the 6284meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz 6285 6286 6287Implementation Internals: 6288========================= 6289 6290The following is not intended to be a complete description of every 6291implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the 6292inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom 6293hardware. 6294 6295 6296Initial Stack, Global Data: 6297--------------------------- 6298 6299The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot 6300starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to 6301system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet). 6302This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS 6303is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working 6304at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation 6305options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU 6306models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and 6307MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be 6308locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc. 6309 6310 Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the 6311 U-Boot mailing list: 6312 6313 Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)? 6314 From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com> 6315 Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET) 6316 ... 6317 6318 Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it 6319 is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not 6320 require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness 6321 is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of 6322 necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's 6323 beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you 6324 can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and 6325 operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals. 6326 6327 OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It 6328 is another option for the system designer to use as an 6329 initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either 6330 option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your 6331 board designers haven't used it for something that would 6332 cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not 6333 used. 6334 6335 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere 6336 with your processor/board/system design. The default value 6337 you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in 6338 walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger 6339 than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set 6340 it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources 6341 that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in 6342 start.S has been around a while and should work as is when 6343 you get the config right. 6344 6345 -Chris Hallinan 6346 DS4.COM, Inc. 6347 6348It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C 6349code for the initialization procedures: 6350 6351* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt 6352 to write it. 6353 6354* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized 6355 as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali- 6356 zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM). 6357 6358* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like 6359 that. 6360 6361Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use 6362normal global data to share information between the code. But it 6363turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly 6364simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all 6365functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_ 6366functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of 6367the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we 6368place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we 6369reserve for this purpose. 6370 6371When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the 6372relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by 6373GCC's implementation. 6374 6375For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use: 6376 R1: stack pointer 6377 R2: reserved for system use 6378 R3-R4: parameter passing and return values 6379 R5-R10: parameter passing 6380 R13: small data area pointer 6381 R30: GOT pointer 6382 R31: frame pointer 6383 6384 (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12 6385 is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when 6386 going back and forth between asm and C) 6387 6388 ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data 6389 6390 Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the 6391 address of the global data structure is known at compile time), 6392 but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat 6393 smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on 6394 average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image, 6395 624 text + 127 data). 6396 6397On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here: 6398 http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface 6399 6400 ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data 6401 6402On ARM, the following registers are used: 6403 6404 R0: function argument word/integer result 6405 R1-R3: function argument word 6406 R9: platform specific 6407 R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled) 6408 R11: argument (frame) pointer 6409 R12: temporary workspace 6410 R13: stack pointer 6411 R14: link register 6412 R15: program counter 6413 6414 ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data 6415 6416 Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported. 6417 6418On Nios II, the ABI is documented here: 6419 http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf 6420 6421 ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data 6422 6423 Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp 6424 to access small data sections, so gp is free. 6425 6426On NDS32, the following registers are used: 6427 6428 R0-R1: argument/return 6429 R2-R5: argument 6430 R15: temporary register for assembler 6431 R16: trampoline register 6432 R28: frame pointer (FP) 6433 R29: global pointer (GP) 6434 R30: link register (LP) 6435 R31: stack pointer (SP) 6436 PC: program counter (PC) 6437 6438 ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data 6439 6440NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope, 6441or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much. 6442 6443Memory Management: 6444------------------ 6445 6446U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the 6447MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection. 6448 6449The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory 6450controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each 6451memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several 6452physical memory banks. 6453 6454U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on 6455TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After 6456booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself 6457to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some 6458memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN 6459configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board 6460Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward). 6461 6462Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB 6463of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF). 6464 6465So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like 6466this: 6467 6468 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code 6469 : 6470 0x0000 1FFF 6471 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use 6472 : 6473 : 6474 6475 : 6476 : 6477 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward) 6478 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data 6479 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena 6480 : 6481 0x00FD FFFF 6482 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code 6483 ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer 6484 ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset) 6485 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM] 6486 6487 6488System Initialization: 6489---------------------- 6490 6491In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point 6492(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset 6493configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory. 6494To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address. 6495To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!) 6496initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs 6497which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked 6498part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, 6499the caches and the SIU. 6500 6501Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a 6502preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries 6503(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash 6504on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is 6505programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a 6506simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM 6507banks. 6508 6509When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of 6510different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first 6511bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address 65120x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create 6513contiguous memory starting from 0. 6514 6515Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area 6516and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board 6517Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM 6518pages, and the final stack is set up. 6519 6520Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment; 6521until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are 6522running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a 6523new address in RAM. 6524 6525 6526U-Boot Porting Guide: 6527---------------------- 6528 6529[Based on messages by Jerry Van Baren in the U-Boot-Users mailing 6530list, October 2002] 6531 6532 6533int main(int argc, char *argv[]) 6534{ 6535 sighandler_t no_more_time; 6536 6537 signal(SIGALRM, no_more_time); 6538 alarm(PROJECT_DEADLINE - toSec (3 * WEEK)); 6539 6540 if (available_money > available_manpower) { 6541 Pay consultant to port U-Boot; 6542 return 0; 6543 } 6544 6545 Download latest U-Boot source; 6546 6547 Subscribe to u-boot mailing list; 6548 6549 if (clueless) 6550 email("Hi, I am new to U-Boot, how do I get started?"); 6551 6552 while (learning) { 6553 Read the README file in the top level directory; 6554 Read http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/Manual; 6555 Read applicable doc/*.README; 6556 Read the source, Luke; 6557 /* find . -name "*.[chS]" | xargs grep -i <keyword> */ 6558 } 6559 6560 if (available_money > toLocalCurrency ($2500)) 6561 Buy a BDI3000; 6562 else 6563 Add a lot of aggravation and time; 6564 6565 if (a similar board exists) { /* hopefully... */ 6566 cp -a board/<similar> board/<myboard> 6567 cp include/configs/<similar>.h include/configs/<myboard>.h 6568 } else { 6569 Create your own board support subdirectory; 6570 Create your own board include/configs/<myboard>.h file; 6571 } 6572 Edit new board/<myboard> files 6573 Edit new include/configs/<myboard>.h 6574 6575 while (!accepted) { 6576 while (!running) { 6577 do { 6578 Add / modify source code; 6579 } until (compiles); 6580 Debug; 6581 if (clueless) 6582 email("Hi, I am having problems..."); 6583 } 6584 Send patch file to the U-Boot email list; 6585 if (reasonable critiques) 6586 Incorporate improvements from email list code review; 6587 else 6588 Defend code as written; 6589 } 6590 6591 return 0; 6592} 6593 6594void no_more_time (int sig) 6595{ 6596 hire_a_guru(); 6597} 6598 6599 6600Coding Standards: 6601----------------- 6602 6603All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel 6604coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script 6605"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory. 6606 6607Source files originating from a different project (for example the 6608MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not 6609reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those 6610sources. 6611 6612Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in 6613Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//) 6614in your code. 6615 6616Please also stick to the following formatting rules: 6617- remove any trailing white space 6618- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces 6619- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds 6620- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files 6621- do not add trailing empty lines to source files 6622 6623Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned 6624with a request to reformat the changes. 6625 6626 6627Submitting Patches: 6628------------------- 6629 6630Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to 6631establish some rules.

If you are using git (which is *strongly* 6660 recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the 6661 "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to 6662 the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems 6663 with some other mail clients. 6664 6665 If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of 6666 diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of 6667 GNU diff. 6668 6669 The current directory when running this command shall be the parent 6670 directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that 6671 your patch includes sufficient directory information for the 6672 affected files). 6673 6674 We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged, 6675 and compressed attachments must not be used. 6676 6677* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several 6678 files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file. 6679 6680* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be 6681 submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset. 6682 6683 6684Notes: 6685 6686* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched 6687 source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported 6688 for any of the boards. 6689 6690* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch 6691 containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be 6692 returned with a request to re-formatting / split it. 6693 6694* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not 6695 add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful! 6696 When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only 6697 (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature 6698 disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your 6699 modification. 6700 6701* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the 6702 u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are 6703 reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches 6704 bigger than the size limit should be avoided. 6705
