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

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

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

667		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
668
669		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
670		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
671
672		CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
673
674		Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
675		set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
676		better code density. For ARM architectures that support
677		Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
678		GCC.
679
680		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
681		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
682		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
683		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
684		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072
685		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_761320
686
687		If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
688		during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
689		workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
690		exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
691		set these options unless they apply!
692
693		COUNTER_FREQUENCY
694		Generic timer clock source frequency.
695
696		COUNTER_FREQUENCY_REAL
697		Generic timer clock source frequency if the real clock is
698		different from COUNTER_FREQUENCY, and can only be determined
699		at run time.
700
701		NOTE: The following can be machine specific errata. These
702		do have ability to provide rudimentary version and machine
703		specific checks, but expect no product checks.
704		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_430973
705		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_454179
706		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_621766
707		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_798870
708		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_801819
709
710- Tegra SoC options:
711		CONFIG_TEGRA_SUPPORT_NON_SECURE
712
713		Support executing U-Boot in non-secure (NS) mode. Certain
714		impossible actions will be skipped if the CPU is in NS mode,
715		such as ARM architectural timer initialization.
716
717- Linux Kernel Interface:
718		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
719
720		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
721		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
722		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
723		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
724		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
725		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
726		Linux kernel.
727		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
728		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
729		default environment.
730
731		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
732
733		When transferring memsize parameter to Linux, some versions
734		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
735		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
736
737		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
738
739		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
740		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
741		concepts).
742
743		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
744		 * New libfdt-based support
745		 * Adds the "fdt" command
746		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
747
748		OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
749			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
750		OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
751			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
752		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
753		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
754
755		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
756		addresses
757
758		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
759
760		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
761		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
762
763		CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP
764
765		Other code has addition modification that it wants to make
766		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel.
767		This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting
768		the kernel.
769
770		CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
771
772		This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
773		param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
774
775		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
776
777		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
778		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
779		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
780		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
781		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
782		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
783
784		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
785
786		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
787		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
788		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
789		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
790		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
791		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
792		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
793
794- vxWorks boot parameters:
795
796		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
797		environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
798		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
799
800		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
801		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
802		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
803		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
804
805		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
806
807		Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
808
809		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
810		the defaults discussed just above.
811
812- Cache Configuration:
813		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
814		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
815		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
816
817- Cache Configuration for ARM:
818		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
819				      controller
820		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
821					controller register space
822
823- Serial Ports:
824		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
825
826		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
827
828		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
829
830		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
831
832		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
833
834		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
835		the clock speed of the UARTs.
836
837		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
838
839		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
840		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
841		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
842
843		CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
844
845		Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
846		Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
847
848- Console Interface:
849		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
850		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
851		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
852		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
853
854		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
855		port routines must be defined elsewhere
856		(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
857
858		CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
859		Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
860		defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
861			VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN	graphic memory organisation
862						(default big endian)
863			VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL	graphic chip supports
864						rectangle fill
865						(cf. smiLynxEM)
866			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
867						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
868			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
869						(cols=pitch)
870			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS	visible pixel rows
871			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE	bytes per pixel
872			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
873						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
874			VIDEO_FB_ADRS		framebuffer address
875			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
876						(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
877			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
878						(i.e. i8042_tstc)
879			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
880						(i.e. i8042_getc)
881			CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR	cursor drawing on/off
882						(requires blink timer
883						cf. i8042.c)
884			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
885			CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME	display time/date info in
886						upper right corner
887						(requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
888			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO	display Linux logo in
889						upper left corner
890			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO	use bmp_logo.h instead of
891						linux_logo.h for logo.
892						Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
893			CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
894						additional board info beside
895						the logo
896
897		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
898		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
899		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
900
901		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
902		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
903		environment 'console=serial'.
904
905		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
906		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
907		the "silent" environment variable. See
908		doc/README.silent for more information.
909
910		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
911			is 0x00.
912		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
913			is 0xa0.
914
915- Console Baudrate:
916		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
917		Select one of the baudrates listed in
918		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
919		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
920
921- Console Rx buffer length
922		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
923		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
924		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
925		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
926		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
927		the SMC.
928
929- Pre-Console Buffer:
930		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
931		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
932		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
933		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
934		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
935		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
936		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
937		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
938		earlier bytes are discarded.
939
940		Note that when printing the buffer a copy is made on the
941		stack so CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ must fit on the stack.
942
943		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
944		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
945
946- Safe printf() functions
947		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
948		the printf() functions. These are defined in
949		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
950		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
951		If this option is not given then these functions will
952		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
953		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
954
955- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
956		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
957		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
958		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
959		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
960
961		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
962		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
963		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
964		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
965		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
966		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
967		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
968		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
969		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
970		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
971
972- Autoboot Command:
973		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
974		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
975		define a command string that is automatically executed
976		when no character is read on the console interface
977		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
978
979		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
980		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
981		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
982		environment value "bootargs".
983
984		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
985		The value of these goes into the environment as
986		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
987		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
988		RAM and NFS.
989
990- Bootcount:
991		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
992		Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
993		cycle, see:
994		http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
995
996		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
997		If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
998		"bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
999		saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
1000		"upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
1001		0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
1002		1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
1003		So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
1004		and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
1005
1006- Pre-Boot Commands:
1007		CONFIG_PREBOOT
1008
1009		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
1010		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
1011		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
1012		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
1013		entering interactive mode.
1014
1015		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
1016		automatically generated or modified. For an example
1017		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
1018		modified when the user holds down a certain
1019		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
1020		booting the systems
1021
1022- Serial Download Echo Mode:
1023		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
1024		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
1025		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
1026		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
1027		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
1028		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
1029		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
1030
1031- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
1032		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
1033		Select one of the baudrates listed in
1034		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
1035
1036- Monitor Functions:
1037		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
1038		from the build by using the #include files
1039		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
1040		commands, or adding #define's for wanted commands.
1041
1042		The default command configuration includes all commands
1043		except those marked below with a "*".
1044
1045		CONFIG_CMD_AES		  AES 128 CBC encrypt/decrypt
1046		CONFIG_CMD_ASKENV	* ask for env variable
1047		CONFIG_CMD_BDI		  bdinfo
1048		CONFIG_CMD_BEDBUG	* Include BedBug Debugger
1049		CONFIG_CMD_BMP		* BMP support
1050		CONFIG_CMD_BSP		* Board specific commands

1052		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTI	* ARM64 Linux kernel Image support
1053		CONFIG_CMD_CACHE	* icache, dcache
1054		CONFIG_CMD_CLK   	* clock command support
1055		CONFIG_CMD_CONSOLE	  coninfo

1154		support you can write:
1155
1156		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
1157		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1158
1159	Other Commands:
1160		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1161
1162	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1163		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1164		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1165		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1166		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1167		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1168		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1169		initial stack and some data.
1170
1171
1172		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1173
1174- Regular expression support:
1175		CONFIG_REGEX
1176		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1177		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1178		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1179		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1180
1181- Device tree:
1182		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1183		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1184		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1185		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1186		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1187		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1188
1189		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1190		be done using one of the two options below:
1191
1192		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1193		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1194		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1195		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1196		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1197		the global data structure as gd->blob.
1198
1199		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1200		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1201		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1202		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1203
1204			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1205
1206		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1207		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1208		still use the individual files if you need something more
1209		exotic.
1210
1211- Watchdog:
1212		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1213		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1214		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1215		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1216		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1217		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
1218		available, then no further board specific code should
1219		be needed to use it.
1220
1221		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1222		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1223		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1224		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1225
1226		CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT
1227		specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds.
1228
1229- U-Boot Version:
1230		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1231		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1232		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1233		version as printed by the "version" command.
1234		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1235		next reset.
1236
1237- Real-Time Clock:
1238
1239		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1240		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1241		following options:
1242
1243		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1244		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1245		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1246		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1247		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1248		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1249		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1250		CONFIG_RTC_DS1339	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
1251		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1252		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1253		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1254		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1255		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
1256					  RV3029 RTC.
1257
1258		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1259		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1260
1261- GPIO Support:
1262		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1263
1264		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1265		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1266		pins supported by a particular chip.
1267
1268		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1269		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1270
1271- I/O tracing:
1272		When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
1273		accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
1274		to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
1275		useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
1276		the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
1277		change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
1278		add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
1279		to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
1280
1281		Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
1282		Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
1283		still continue to operate.
1284
1285			iotrace is enabled
1286			Start:  10000000	(buffer start address)
1287			Size:   00010000	(buffer size)
1288			Offset: 00000120	(current buffer offset)
1289			Output: 10000120	(start + offset)
1290			Count:  00000018	(number of trace records)
1291			CRC32:  9526fb66	(CRC32 of all trace records)
1292
1293- Timestamp Support:
1294
1295		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1296		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
1297		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1298		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1299
1300- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1301		Zero or more of the following:
1302		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
1303		CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION   MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1304				       Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1305		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1306		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1307				       bootloader.  Note 2TB partition limit; see
1308				       disk/part_efi.c
1309		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
1310
1311		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1312		CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1313		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1314
1315- IDE Reset method:
1316		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1317		board configurations files but used nowhere!
1318
1319		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1320		be performed by calling the function
1321			ide_set_reset(int reset)
1322		which has to be defined in a board specific file
1323
1324- ATAPI Support:
1325		CONFIG_ATAPI
1326
1327		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1328
1329- LBA48 Support
1330		CONFIG_LBA48
1331
1332		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1333		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1334		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1335		support disks up to 2.1TB.
1336
1337		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1338			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1339			Default is 32bit.
1340
1341- SCSI Support:
1342		At the moment only there is only support for the
1343		SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
1344		CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.

1346		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1347		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1348		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1349		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1350		devices.
1351		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1352

1525			CONFIG_USB_CLOCK
1526				for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb
1527			CONFIG_PSC3_USB
1528				for USB on PSC3
1529			CONFIG_USB_CONFIG
1530				for differential drivers: 0x00001000
1531				for single ended drivers: 0x00005000
1532				for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100
1533				for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100
1534			CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL
1535				May be defined to allow interrupt polling
1536				instead of using asynchronous interrupts
1537
1538		CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
1539		txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
1540
1541		CONFIG_USB_DWC2_REG_ADDR the physical CPU address of the DWC2
1542		HW module registers.
1543
1544- USB Device:
1545		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1546		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1547		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1548		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1549		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1550		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1551		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1552		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1553		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1554		a Linux host by
1555		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1556		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1557		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1558		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1559
1560			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1561			Define this to build a UDC device
1562
1563			CONFIG_USB_TTY
1564			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1565			talk to the UDC device
1566
1567			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1568			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1569			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1570			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1571			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1572			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1573			speed.
1574
1575			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1576			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1577			be set to usbtty.
1578
1579			mpc8xx:
1580				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH
1581				Derive USB clock from external clock "blah"
1582				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02
1583
1584				CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH
1585				Derive USB clock from brgclk
1586				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
1587
1588		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1589		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1590		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1591		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1592		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1593		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1594
1595			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1596			Define this string as the name of your company for
1597			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1598
1599			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1600			Define this string as the name of your product
1601			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1602
1603			CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1604			Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1605			Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1606			to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1607			- CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1608
1609			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1610			Define this as the unique Product ID
1611			for your device
1612			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1613
1614- ULPI Layer Support:
1615		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1616		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1617		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1618		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1619		viewport is supported.
1620		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1621		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1622		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1623		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1624		the appropriate value in Hz.
1625
1626- MMC Support:
1627		The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1628		enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1629		accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1630		to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1631		enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1632		the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1633
1634		CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1635		Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1636
1637			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
1638			Define the base address of MMCIF registers
1639
1640			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK
1641			Define the clock frequency for MMCIF
1642
1643		CONFIG_GENERIC_MMC
1644		Enable the generic MMC driver
1645
1646		CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_BOOT
1647		Enable some additional features of the eMMC boot partitions.
1648
1649		CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_RPMB
1650		Enable the commands for reading, writing and programming the
1651		key for the Replay Protection Memory Block partition in eMMC.
1652
1653- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support:
1654		CONFIG_USB_FUNCTION_DFU
1655		This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1656
1657		CONFIG_CMD_DFU
1658		This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have
1659		U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB.  This command
1660		requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1661		set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1662
1663		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1664		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1665
1666		CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1667		This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1668
1669		CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1670		This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1671		Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1672		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1673		one that would help mostly the developer.
1674
1675		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1676		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1677		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1678		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1679		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1680
1681		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1682		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1683		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1684		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1685		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1686		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1687
1688		DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1689		Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1690		host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1691		a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1692
1693		DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1694		Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1695		entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1696		sending again an USB request to the device.
1697
1698- USB Device Android Fastboot support:
1699		CONFIG_USB_FUNCTION_FASTBOOT
1700		This enables the USB part of the fastboot gadget
1701
1702		CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT
1703		This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android
1704		fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB
1705		protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control
1706		used on Android devices.
1707		See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information.
1708
1709		CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE
1710		This enables support for booting images which use the Android
1711		image format header.
1712
1713		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR
1714		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1715		downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for
1716		downloaded images.
1717
1718		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE
1719		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1720		downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a
1721		platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot.
1722
1723		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH
1724		The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing
1725		the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define
1726		this to enable the "fastboot flash" command.
1727
1728		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV
1729		The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information
1730		regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to
1731		the eMMC device that fastboot should use to store the image.
1732
1733		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_GPT_NAME
1734		The fastboot "flash" command supports writing the downloaded
1735		image to the Protective MBR and the Primary GUID Partition
1736		Table. (Additionally, this downloaded image is post-processed
1737		to generate and write the Backup GUID Partition Table.)
1738		This occurs when the specified "partition name" on the
1739		"fastboot flash" command line matches this value.
1740		Default is GPT_ENTRY_NAME (currently "gpt") if undefined.
1741
1742- Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1743		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
1744		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
1745		Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1746
1747		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1748		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1749		Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1750
1751		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
1752		Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1753		function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1754
1755		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1756		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1757		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1758		have not defined a custom partition
1759
1760- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1761		CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1762
1763		Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1764		file in FAT formatted partition.
1765
1766		This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1767		user to write files to FAT.
1768
1769CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1770		CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1771
1772		Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1773		filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
1774		and cbfsload.
1775
1776- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size:
1777		CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE
1778
1779		Define the max cluster size for fat operations else
1780		a default value of 65536 will be defined.
1781
1782- Keyboard Support:
1783		CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
1784
1785		Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
1786		support
1787
1788		CONFIG_I8042_KBD
1789		Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
1790		GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
1791		Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
1792		for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
1793
1794		CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB
1795		Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface.
1796		This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller
1797		which provides key scans on request.
1798
1799- Video support:
1800		CONFIG_VIDEO
1801
1802		Define this to enable video support (for output to
1803		video).
1804
1805		CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
1806
1807		Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
1808
1809		CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1810		Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1811		video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1812		(1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1813		assumed.
1814
1815		For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1816		selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1817		are possible:
1818		- "videomode=num"   'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
1819		Following standard modes are supported	(* is default):
1820
1821		      Colors	640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
1822		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1823		      8 bits |	0x301*	0x303	 0x305	  0x161	    0x307
1824		     15 bits |	0x310	0x313	 0x316	  0x162	    0x319
1825		     16 bits |	0x311	0x314	 0x317	  0x163	    0x31A
1826		     24 bits |	0x312	0x315	 0x318	    ?	    0x31B
1827		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1828		(i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1829
1830		- "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1831		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1832
1833
1834		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1835		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1836		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1837		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1838
1839		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1840		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1841		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1842		support, and should also define these other macros:
1843
1844			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1845			CONFIG_VIDEO
1846			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1847			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1848			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1849			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1850			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1851			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1852
1853		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1854		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1855		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1856		description of this variable.
1857
1858
1859- Keyboard Support:
1860		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1861
1862		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1863		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1864		defined in your board-specific files.
1865		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1866
1867- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1868
1869		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1870		display); also select one of the supported displays
1871		by defining one of these:
1872
1873		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1874
1875			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1876
1877		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1878
1879			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1880
1881		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1882
1883			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1884			Active, color, single scan.
1885
1886		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1887
1888			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1889			Active, color, single scan.
1890
1891		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1892
1893			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1894			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1895
1896		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1897
1898			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1899			Active, color, single scan.
1900
1901		CONFIG_HLD1045
1902
1903			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1904			Active, color, single scan.
1905
1906		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1907
1908			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1909			or
1910			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1911			or
1912			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1913
1914			320x240. Black & white.
1915
1916		Normally display is black on white background; define
1917		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1918
1919		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1920
1921		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (typically 4KB). If this is
1922		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1923		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1924		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1925		a per-section basis.
1926
1927		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1928
1929		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1930		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1931		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1932		is slow.
1933
1934		CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION
1935
1936		Sometimes, for example if the display is mounted in portrait
1937		mode or even if it's mounted landscape but rotated by 180degree,
1938		we need to rotate our content of the display relative to the
1939		framebuffer, so that user can read the messages which are
1940		printed out.
1941		Once CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is defined, the lcd_console will be
1942		initialized with a given rotation from "vl_rot" out of
1943		"vidinfo_t" which is provided by the board specific code.
1944		The value for vl_rot is coded as following (matching to
1945		fbcon=rotate:<n> linux-kernel commandline):
1946		0 = no rotation respectively 0 degree
1947		1 = 90 degree rotation
1948		2 = 180 degree rotation
1949		3 = 270 degree rotation
1950
1951		If CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is not defined, the console will be
1952		initialized with 0degree rotation.
1953
1954		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1955
1956		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1957
1958		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1959
1960		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1961		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1962
1963- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1964
1965		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1966		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1967		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1968		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1969		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1970		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1971		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1972		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1973
1974		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1975
1976		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1977		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1978		(see README.displaying-bmps).
1979		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1980		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1981		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1982		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1983		there is no need to set this option.
1984
1985		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1986
1987		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1988		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1989		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1990		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1991		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1992		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1993
1994		Example:
1995		setenv splashpos m,m
1996			=> image at center of screen
1997
1998		setenv splashpos 30,20
1999			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
2000
2001		setenv splashpos -10,m
2002			=> vertically centered image
2003			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
2004
2005- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
2006
2007		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
2008		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
2009		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
2010
2011- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
2012
2013		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
2014		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
2015		bmp command.
2016
2017- Do compressing for memory range:
2018		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
2019
2020		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
2021		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
2022
2023- Compression support:
2024		CONFIG_GZIP
2025
2026		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
2027
2028		CONFIG_BZIP2
2029
2030		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
2031		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
2032		compressed images are supported.
2033
2034		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
2035		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
2036		be at least 4MB.
2037
2038		CONFIG_LZMA
2039
2040		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
2041		images is included.
2042
2043		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
2044		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
2045		formula:
2046
2047			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
2048
2049		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
2050		and Literal pos bits.
2051
2052		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
2053		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
2054		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
2055		a very small buffer.
2056
2057		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
2058		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
2059		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
2060
2061		CONFIG_LZO
2062
2063		If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
2064		is included.
2065
2066- MII/PHY support:
2067		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
2068
2069		The address of PHY on MII bus.
2070
2071		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
2072
2073		The clock frequency of the MII bus
2074
2075		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
2076
2077		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
2078		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
2079
2080		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
2081
2082		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
2083		reset before any MII register access is possible.
2084		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
2085		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
2086
2087		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
2088
2089		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
2090		command issued before MII status register can be read
2091
2092- IP address:
2093		CONFIG_IPADDR
2094
2095		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
2096		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
2097		determined through e.g. bootp.
2098		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
2099
2100- Server IP address:
2101		CONFIG_SERVERIP
2102
2103		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
2104		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
2105		(Environment variable "serverip")
2106
2107		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
2108
2109		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
2110		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
2111
2112- Gateway IP address:
2113		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
2114
2115		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
2116		default router where packets to other networks are
2117		sent to.
2118		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
2119
2120- Subnet mask:
2121		CONFIG_NETMASK
2122
2123		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
2124		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
2125		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
2126		forwarded through a router.
2127		(Environment variable "netmask")
2128
2129- Multicast TFTP Mode:
2130		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
2131
2132		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
2133		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
2134		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
2135		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
2136		multicast group.
2137
2138- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
2139		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
2140
2141		If you have many targets in a network that try to
2142		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
2143		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
2144		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
2145		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
2146		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
2147		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
2148		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
2149		following delays are inserted then:
2150
2151		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
2152		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
2153		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
2154		4th and following
2155		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
2156
2157		CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE
2158
2159		BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The
2160		server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and
2161		U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of
2162		an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses
2163		aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP
2164		ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to
2165		respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it
2166		takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that
2167		time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order
2168		to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these
2169		retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of
2170		IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this
2171		cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding
2172		requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers
2173		from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency.
2174
2175- DHCP Advanced Options:
2176		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
2177		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
2178
2179		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
2180		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
2181		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
2182		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
2183		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
2184		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
2185		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2186		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
2187		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
2188		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
2189		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
2190		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
2191		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
2192
2193		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
2194		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
2195
2196		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
2197		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
2198		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
2199		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
2200		is not available.
2201
2202		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
2203		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
2204		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
2205		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
2206		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
2207		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
2208		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2209		is defined.
2210
2211		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
2212		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
2213		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
2214		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
2215		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
2216		option 12 to the DHCP server.
2217
2218		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
2219
2220		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
2221		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
2222		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
2223		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
2224		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
2225		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
2226		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
2227		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
2228		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
2229		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
2230		this delay.
2231
2232 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
2233		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
2234		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
2235		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
2236		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
2237
2238		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
2239
2240 - CDP Options:
2241		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
2242
2243		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
2244
2245		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
2246
2247		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
2248		of the device.
2249
2250		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
2251
2252		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
2253		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
2254		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
2255
2256		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
2257
2258		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
2259		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
2260
2261		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
2262
2263		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
2264
2265		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
2266
2267		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
2268
2269		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
2270
2271		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
2272
2273		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
2274
2275		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
2276		device in .1 of milliwatts.
2277
2278		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
2279
2280		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
2281
2282- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2283
2284		Several configurations allow to display the current
2285		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2286		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2287		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2288		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2289		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2290		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2291		feature in U-Boot.
2292
2293		Additional options:
2294
2295		CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2296		The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2297		In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2298		status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2299		to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2300
2301		CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2302		Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2303		case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2304		GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2305		In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2306		with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2307
2308- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2309
2310		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
2311		on those systems that support this (optional)
2312		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2313
2314- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
2315
2316		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
2317		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
2318		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
2319		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
2320		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
2321		interface.
2322
2323		ported i2c driver to the new framework:
2324		- drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c:
2325		  - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define
2326		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE

2343		    bus.
2344		  - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define
2345		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset

2443
2444		additional defines:
2445
2446		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2447		Hold the number of i2c buses you want to use. If you
2448		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2449		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2450		omit this define.
2451
2452		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2453		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2454		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2455		omit this define.
2456
2457		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2458		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2459		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2460		define.
2461
2462		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2463		hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if
2464		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2465		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2466		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:

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

3345
3346- legacy image format:
3347		CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3348		enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
3349
3350		Default:
3351		enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
3352
3353		CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
3354		disable the legacy image format
3355
3356		This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
3357		enabled per default for backward compatibility.
3358
3359- FIT image support:
3360		CONFIG_FIT
3361		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
3362
3363		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3364		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3365		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3366		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3367		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3368		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3369
3370		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
3371		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
3372		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. If
3373		CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL is defined, i.e support for progressive
3374		hashing is available using hardware, RSA library will use it.
3375		See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
3376
3377		WARNING: When relying on signed FIT images with required
3378		signature check the legacy image format is default
3379		disabled. If a board need legacy image format support
3380		enable this through CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3381
3382		CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256
3383		Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size.
3384		For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled
3385		with this option.
3386
3387- Standalone program support:
3388		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3389
3390		This option defines a board specific value for the
3391		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
3392		overwriting the architecture dependent default
3393		settings.
3394
3395- Frame Buffer Address:
3396		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
3397
3398		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3399		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
3400		when using a graphics controller has separate video
3401		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3402		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3403		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3404		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3405		configured panel size.
3406
3407		Please see board_init_f function.
3408
3409- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
3410		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
3411		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
3412		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
3413
3414		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
3415		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
3416
3417- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
3418		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
3419
3420		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
3421		Needed for mtdparts command support.
3422
3423		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
3424
3425		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
3426		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
3427
3428- UBI support
3429		CONFIG_CMD_UBI
3430
3431		Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3432		with the UBI flash translation layer
3433
3434		Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3435
3436		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3437
3438		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
3439		warnings and errors enabled.
3440
3441
3442		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
3443		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
3444		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
3445		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
3446		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
3447		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
3448
3449		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
3450		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
3451		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
3452		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
3453		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
3454
3455		default: 4096
3456
3457		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
3458		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
3459		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
3460		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
3461		flash), this value is ignored.
3462
3463		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
3464		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
3465		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
3466		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
3467		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
3468		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
3469
3470		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
3471		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
3472		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
3473		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
3474		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
3475		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
3476		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
3477		partition.
3478
3479		default: 20
3480
3481		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
3482		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
3483		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
3484		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
3485		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
3486		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
3487		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
3488		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
3489		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
3490		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
3491		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
3492		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
3493
3494		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
3495		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
3496		without a fastmap.
3497		default: 0
3498
3499- UBIFS support
3500		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3501
3502		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3503		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3504
3505		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3506
3507		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3508
3509		Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing.  This leaves
3510		warnings and errors enabled.
3511
3512- SPL framework
3513		CONFIG_SPL
3514		Enable building of SPL globally.
3515
3516		CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT
3517		LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
3518
3519		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
3520		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
3521		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
3522		used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3523		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3524		must not be both defined at the same time.
3525
3526		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
3527		Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and
3528		linker lists sections), BSS excluded.
3529		When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does
3530		not exceed it.
3531
3532		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
3533		TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary.
3534
3535		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE
3536		Address to relocate to.  If unspecified, this is equal to
3537		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done).
3538
3539		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR
3540		Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary.
3541
3542		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3543		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS.
3544		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used
3545		by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3546		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3547		must not be both defined at the same time.
3548
3549		CONFIG_SPL_STACK
3550		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use
3551
3552		CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE
3553		When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has
3554		loaded does not have a signature.
3555		Defining this is useful when code which loads images
3556		in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors
3557		will be caught.
3558		An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will
3559		consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad,
3560		and thus should be skipped silently.
3561
3562		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
3563		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
3564		relocation.  If unspecified, this is equal to
3565		CONFIG_SPL_STACK.
3566
3567		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START
3568		Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL.
3569

3579		Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL.
3580		See also: doc/README.falcon

3611		used in raw mode
3612
3613		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR
3614		Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being
3615		used in raw mode (for Falcon mode)
3616
3617		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR,
3618		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS
3619		Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument
3620		parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode
3621		(for falcon mode)
3622
3623		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION
3624		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being
3625		used in fs mode
3626

3642		when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
3643
3644		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
3645		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
3646		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3647		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3648		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
3649
3650		CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE
3651		Avoid SPL relocation
3652
3653		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE
3654		Include nand_base.c in the SPL.  Requires
3655		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS.

3661		Include standard software ECC in the SPL
3662
3663		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE

3669		environment on NAND support within SPL.
3670

3672		Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only
3673		if you need to save space.
3674
3675		CONFIG_SPL_MPC8XXX_INIT_DDR_SUPPORT
3676		Set for the SPL on PPC mpc8xxx targets, support for
3677		drivers/ddr/fsl/libddr.o in SPL binary.

3681		SPL binary.
3682
3683		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT,
3684		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE,
3685		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,
3686		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
3687		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
3688		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
3689		to read U-Boot
3690
3691		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT
3692		Add support NAND boot
3693
3694		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
3695		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from
3696
3697		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST
3698		Location in memory to load U-Boot to
3699
3700		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE
3701		Size of image to load
3702
3703		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
3704		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
3705
3706		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
3707		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
3708		data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms.
3709
3710		CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND
3711		Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the
3712		ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present.
3713
3714		CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT
3715		Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary
3716
3717		CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT
3718		Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary

3729		CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT
3730		Support for the environment operating in SPL binary
3731
3732		CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT
3733		Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary.
3734		It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by
3735		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3736
3737		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3738		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3739		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3740		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3741		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3742		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3743
3744		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3745		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3746		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3747		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3748
3749		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3750		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3751		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3752		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3753		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3754
3755- TPL framework
3756		CONFIG_TPL
3757		Enable building of TPL globally.
3758
3759		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
3760		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
3761		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3762		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3763		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3764		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3765
3766Modem Support:
3767--------------
3768
3769[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3770
3771- Modem support enable:
3772		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3773
3774- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3775		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3776
3777- Modem debug support:
3778		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3779
3780		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3781		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3782
3783- Interrupt support (PPC):
3784
3785		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3786		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3787		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3788		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3789		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3790		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3791		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3792		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3793		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3794		general timer_interrupt().
3795
3796- General:
3797
3798		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3799		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3800		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3801		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3802		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3803		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3804		initialization.
3805
3806		If there are no modem init strings in the
3807		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3808		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3809		suppressed, though.
3810
3811		See also: doc/README.Modem
3812
3813Board initialization settings:
3814------------------------------
3815
3816During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3817to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3818before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3819following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3820architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3821typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3822
3823- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3824- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3825- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3826- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3827
3828Configuration Settings:
3829-----------------------
3830
3831- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
3832		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
3833
3834- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3835		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3836
3837- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3838		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3839
3840- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3841		prompt for user input.
3842
3843- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3844
3845- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3846
3847- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3848
3849- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3850		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3851		booted
3852
3853- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3854		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3855
3856- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3857		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3858
3859- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3860		If the board specific function
3861			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3862		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3863		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3864
3865- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3866		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3867
3868- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3869		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3870
3871- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3872		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3873		simple memory test.
3874
3875- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3876		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3877
3878- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3879		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3880		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3881
3882- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3883		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3884		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3885		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3886		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3887		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3888		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3889		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3890		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3891		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3892
3893		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3894		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3895		be touched.
3896
3897		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3898		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3899		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3900		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3901		problems.
3902
3903- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3904		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3905
3906- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3907		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3908
3909- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3910		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3911		Cogent motherboard)
3912
3913- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3914		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3915
3916- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3917		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3918		make config files to be same as the text base address
3919		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3920		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3921
3922- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3923		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3924		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3925		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3926		flash sector.
3927
3928- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3929		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3930
3931- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3932		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3933		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3934		will become available before relocation. The address is just
3935		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3936		space.
3937
3938		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3939		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3940		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3941		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when
3942		U-Boot relocates itself.
3943
3944		Pre-relocation malloc() is only supported on ARM and sandbox
3945		at present but is fairly easy to enable for other archs.
3946
3947- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE
3948		Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those
3949		boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is
3950		enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START).
3951
3952- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY:
3953		Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be
3954		typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped
3955		uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would
3956		otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For
3957		some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the
3958		cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed
3959		are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding
3960		cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e.
3961		if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the
3962		size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of
3963		one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has
3964		written to another region in the same cache-line. This can
3965		happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for
3966		buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g.
3967		16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes).
3968
3969		Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present.
3970
3971- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3972		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3973		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3974		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3975		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3976
3977- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3978		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3979		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3980		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3981		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3982		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3983		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3984		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3985		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3986		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3987		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3988
3989- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3990		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3991		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3992		is enabled.
3993
3994- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3995		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3996		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3997
3998- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3999		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
4000		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
4001
4002- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
4003		Max number of Flash memory banks
4004
4005- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
4006		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
4007
4008- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
4009		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
4010
4011- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
4012		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
4013
4014- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
4015		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
4016
4017- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
4018		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
4019
4020- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
4021		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
4022		instead of U-Boot software protection.
4023
4024- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
4025
4026		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
4027		without this option such a download has to be
4028		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
4029		copy from RAM to flash.
4030
4031		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
4032		you can check if the download worked before you erase
4033		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
4034		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
4035		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
4036
4037- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
4038		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
4039		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
4040
4041- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
4042		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
4043		in the drivers directory
4044
4045- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
4046		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
4047		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
4048		to the MTD layer.
4049
4050- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
4051		Use buffered writes to flash.
4052
4053- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
4054		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
4055		write commands.
4056
4057- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
4058		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
4059		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
4060		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
4061		optionally available.
4062
4063- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
4064		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
4065		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
4066		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
4067
4068- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
4069		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
4070		against the source after the write operation. An error message
4071		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
4072		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
4073		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
4074		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
4075		this option if you really know what you are doing.
4076
4077- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
4078		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
4079		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
4080		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
4081		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
4082		on high Ethernet traffic.
4083		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
4084
4085- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
4086
4087	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
4088	internally to store the environment settings. The default
4089	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
4090	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
4091	lib/hashtable.c for details.
4092
4093- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4094- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4095	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
4096	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
4097	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
4098	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
4099
4100	The format of the list is:
4101		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
4102		access_attribute = [a|r|o|c]
4103		attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute]
4104		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
4105		list = entry[,list]
4106
4107	The type attributes are:
4108		s - String (default)
4109		d - Decimal
4110		x - Hexadecimal
4111		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
4112		i - IP address
4113		m - MAC address
4114
4115	The access attributes are:
4116		a - Any (default)
4117		r - Read-only
4118		o - Write-once
4119		c - Change-default
4120
4121	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4122		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
4123		environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4124
4125	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4126		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
4127		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
4128		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
4129		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
4130		".flags" variable.
4131
4132	If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
4133	regular expression. This allows multiple variables to define the same
4134	flags without explicitly listing them for each variable.
4135
4136- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
4137	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
4138	access flags.
4139
4140- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
4141	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
4142	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
4143	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
4144	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
4145	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
4146	must support it (i.e. must select HAVE_GENERIC_BOARD in arch/Kconfig).
4147	If you find problems enabling this option on your board please report
4148	the problem and send patches!
4149
4150- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
4151	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
4152	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
4153	the value can be calculated on a given board.
4154
4155- CONFIG_USE_STDINT
4156	If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this
4157	option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when
4158	building U-Boot to enable this.
4159
4160The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
4161of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
4162following configurations:
4163
4164- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
4165
4166	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
4167	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
4168
4169- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
4170
4171	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
4172
4173	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
4174	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
4175	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
4176	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
4177	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
4178	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
4179	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
4180	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
4181	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
4182	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
4183	   between U-Boot and the environment.
4184
4185	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4186
4187	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
4188	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
4189	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
4190	   for this sector is given here.
4191
4192	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
4193
4194	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4195
4196	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
4197	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
4198	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
4199
4200	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4201
4202	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
4203
4204
4205	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
4206	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
4207	   the environment.
4208
4209	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4210
4211	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
4212	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
4213	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
4214	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
4215
4216	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
4217	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
4218	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
4219	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
4220	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
4221	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
4222	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
4223	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
4224	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
4225
4226	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
4227	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
4228
4229	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
4230	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
4231	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
4232	   a "saveenv" operation.
4233
4234BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
4235source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
4236accordingly!
4237
4238
4239- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
4240
4241	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
4242	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
4243	environment.
4244
4245	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4246	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4247
4248	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
4249	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
4250	  can just be read and written to, without any special
4251	  provision.
4252
4253BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
4254in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the
4255console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
4256U-Boot will hang.
4257
4258Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
4259environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
4260keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
4261to save the current settings.
4262
4263
4264- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
4265
4266	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
4267	device and a driver for it.
4268
4269	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4270	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4271
4272	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4273	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
4274
4275	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
4276	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
4277	  The default address is zero.
4278
4279	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_BUS:
4280	  If defined, specified the i2c bus of the EEPROM device.
4281
4282	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
4283	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
4284	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
4285	  would require six bits.
4286
4287	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
4288	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
4289	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
4290
4291	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
4292	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
4293	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
4294
4295	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
4296	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
4297	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
4298	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
4299	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
4300	  byte chips.
4301
4302	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
4303	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
4304	  in the chip address.
4305
4306	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
4307	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
4308
4309	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
4310	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
4311	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
4312
4313	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
4314	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
4315	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
4316	  EEPROM. For example:
4317
4318	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
4319
4320	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
4321	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
4322
4323- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
4324
4325	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
4326	want to use for the environment.
4327
4328	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4329	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4330	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4331
4332	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
4333	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
4334	  at the specified address.
4335
4336- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH:
4337
4338	Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you
4339	want to use for the environment.
4340
4341	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4342	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4343
4344	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4345	  environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4346	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4347
4348	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4349
4350	  Define the SPI flash's sector size.
4351
4352	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4353
4354	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4355	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4356	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4357	  during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4358	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4359
4360	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional):
4361	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional):
4362
4363	  Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0.
4364
4365	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional):
4366
4367	  Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz.
4368
4369	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional):
4370
4371	  Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3.
4372
4373- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
4374
4375	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
4376	want to use for the local device's environment.
4377
4378	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4379	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4380
4381	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
4382	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
4383	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
4384	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
4385
4386BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
4387"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
4388environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
4389but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
4390
4391- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
4392
4393	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
4394	for the environment.
4395
4396	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4397	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4398
4399	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4400	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4401	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4402
4403	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4404
4405	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4406	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4407	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4408	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4409	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4410
4411	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
4412
4413	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
4414	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
4415	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
4416	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
4417	  the range to be avoided.
4418
4419	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
4420
4421	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
4422	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
4423	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
4424	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
4425	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
4426
4427- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
4428
4429	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
4430	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
4431	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4432
4433- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
4434
4435	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
4436	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
4437	accesses, which is important on NAND.
4438
4439	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
4440
4441	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
4442
4443	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
4444
4445	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
4446	  environment in.
4447
4448	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
4449
4450	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
4451	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
4452	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
4453
4454	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
4455	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
4456
4457	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
4458	  when storing the env in UBI.
4459
4460- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT:
4461       Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment.
4462
4463       - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE:
4464
4465         Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.
4466
4467       - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
4468
4469         Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
4470         be as following:
4471
4472           "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1)
4473               - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no
4474                        partition table.
4475               - "D:0": device D.
4476               - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition
4477                              table, or the whole device D if has no partition
4478                              table.
4479               - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
4480                           If none, first valid partition in device D. If no
4481                           partition table then means device D.
4482
4483       - FAT_ENV_FILE:
4484
4485         It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the
4486         environment.
4487
4488       - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE:
4489         This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the environment file.
4490
4491- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
4492
4493	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
4494	environment.
4495
4496	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4497
4498	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4499
4500	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4501
4502	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4503	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4504	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4505
4506	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4507	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4508
4509	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4510	  area within the specified MMC device.
4511
4512	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4513	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4514	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4515	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4516	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4517	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4518	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4519
4520	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4521	  MMC sector boundary.
4522
4523	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4524
4525	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4526	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4527	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4528	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4529
4530	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4531	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4532
4533	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4534	  an MMC sector boundary.
4535
4536	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4537
4538	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4539	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4540	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4541
4542- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
4543
4544	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4545	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4546	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4547	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4548	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4549	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4550	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4551
4552Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
4553has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
4554created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
4555until then to read environment variables.
4556
4557The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4558is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4559with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4560necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4561"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4562have any device yet where we could complain.]
4563
4564Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4565the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
4566use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
4567
4568- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
4569		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
4570
4571		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
4572		      also needs to be defined.
4573
4574- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
4575		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
4576
4577- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
4578		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
4579		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
4580		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
4581		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
4582		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
4583
4584- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
4585		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
4586		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
4587		to do this.
4588
4589- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
4590		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
4591		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
4592		present.
4593
4594- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
4595		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
4596		build system checks that the actual size does not
4597		exceed it.
4598
4599Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
4600---------------------------------------------------
4601
4602- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
4603		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
4604
4605- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
4606		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
4607
4608		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4609		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
4610		the IMMR register after a reset.
4611
4612- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4613		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4614		PowerPC SOCs.
4615
4616- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4617		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4618		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4619
4620		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4621		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4622
4623- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4624		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
4625		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
4626		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
4627		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
4628		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
4629		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4630
4631		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4632			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4633
4634- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
4635		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
4636		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
4637		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4638		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4639
4640- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4641		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
4642		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4643		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4644
4645- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4646		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4647		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
4648
4649- Floppy Disk Support:
4650		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
4651
4652		the default drive number (default value 0)
4653
4654		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4655
4656		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4657		(default value 1)
4658
4659		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4660
4661		defines the offset of register from address. It
4662		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4663		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4664
4665		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4666		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4667		default value.
4668
4669		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4670		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4671		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4672		source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent
4673		initializations.
4674
4675- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4676		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4677		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4678		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4679		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4680		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4681		is required.
4682
4683- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4684		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4685		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4686
4687- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4688
4689		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4690		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4691		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4692		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4693		will become available only after programming the
4694		memory controller and running certain initialization
4695		sequences.
4696
4697		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4698		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4699		- MPC824X: data cache
4700		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4701
4702- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4703
4704		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4705		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4706		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4707		data is located at the end of the available space
4708		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4709		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4710		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4711		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4712
4713	Note:
4714		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4715		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4716		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4717		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4718		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

4754		Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing)
4755
4756- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4757		enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4758		define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2]
4759
4760- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4761		enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);

4770		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4771		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4772
4773- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4774		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4775		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4776		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.

4778
4779- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4780  CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4788
4789- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4790		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4791		required.
4792
4793- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4794		Only scan through and get the devices on the buses.
4795		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4796		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4797		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4798		by coreboot or similar.

4842
4843- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM

4860- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_BIST
4861		Enable built-in memory test for Freescale DDR controllers.
4862
4863- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4864		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4865		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4866
4867- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4868		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4869
4870- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4871		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4872		to the given FEC; i. e.
4873			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4874		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4875

4879		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4880		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4881
4882- CONFIG_RMII
4883		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4884		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4885		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4886
4887- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4888		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4889		The syntax is:
4890
4891		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4892
4893		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4894		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4895		area should have.
4896
4897- CONFIG_LOOPW
4898		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4899		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4900
4901- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4902		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4903		"md/mw" commands.
4904		Examples:
4905
4906		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4907		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4908
4909		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4910		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4911
4912		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4913		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4914
4915- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4916		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4917		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4918		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4919		relocate itself into RAM.
4920
4921		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4922		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4923		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4924		these initializations itself.
4925
4926- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4927		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4928		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4929		compiling a NAND SPL.
4930
4931- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4932		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4933		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4934		It is loaded by the SPL.
4935
4936- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4937		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4938		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4939		previous 4k of the .text section.
4940
4941- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4942		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4943		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4944		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4945		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4946		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4947		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4948		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4949
4950- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4951  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4952		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4953		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4954		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4955
4956- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4957		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4958		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4959
4960- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4961		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4962
4963		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4964
4965- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4966		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4967
4968- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
4969		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
4970		driver that uses this:
4971		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
4972
4973Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4974-----------------------------------
4975
4976The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4977loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4978This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4979are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4980within that device.
4981
4982- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4983	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
4984	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4985	is also specified.
4986
4987- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
4988	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
4989	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4990	is also specified.
4991
4992- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4993	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4994	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4995	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4996	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4997
4998- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4999	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
5000	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
5001	virtual address in NOR flash.
5002
5003- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
5004	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
5005	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
5006
5007- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
5008	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
5009	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
5010
5011- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
5012	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
5013	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
5014
5015- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
5016	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
5017	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
5018	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
5019	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
5020	master's memory space.
5021
5022Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
5023---------------------------------------------------------
5024The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
5025"firmware".
5026This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
5027are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
5028within that device.
5029
5030- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
5031	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
5032
5033- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR
5034	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
5035	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro
5036	is also specified.
5037
5038- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH
5039	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
5040	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
5041	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
5042	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
5043
5044- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR
5045	Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
5046	normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
5047	virtual address in NOR flash.
5048
5049Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support:
5050-------------------------------------------
5051The Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support supports the loading of
5052"Debug Server firmware" and triggering SP boot-rom.
5053This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting.
5054
5055- CONFIG_FSL_DEBUG_SERVER
5056	Enable the Debug Server for Layerscape SoCs.
5057
5058- CONFIG_SYS_DEBUG_SERVER_DRAM_BLOCK_MIN_SIZE
5059	Define minimum DDR size required for debug server image
5060
5061- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE_MIN
5062	Define minimum DDR size to be hided from top of the DDR memory
5063
5064Reproducible builds
5065-------------------
5066
5067In order to achieve reproducible builds, timestamps used in the U-Boot build
5068process have to be set to a fixed value.
5069
5070This is done using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable.
5071SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is to be set on the build host's shell, not as a configuration
5072option for U-Boot or an environment variable in U-Boot.
5073
5074SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH should be set to a number of seconds since the epoch, in UTC.
5075
5076Building the Software:
5077======================
5078
5079Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
5080and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
5081all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
5082(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
5083recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
5084which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
5085
5086If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
5087have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
5088you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
5089Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
5090necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
5091
5092	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
5093	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
5094
5095Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
5096      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
5097      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
5098      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
5099
5100       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
5101
5102      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
5103      be executed on computers running Windows.
5104
5105U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
5106sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
5107is done by typing:
5108
5109	make NAME_defconfig
5110
5111where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
5112rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
5113
5114Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
5115      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
5116      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
5117      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
5118      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
5119
5120      make TQM823L_defconfig
5121	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
5122
5123      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
5124	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
5125
5126      etc.
5127
5128
5129Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
5130images ready for download to / installation on your system:
5131
5132- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
5133- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
5134- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
5135
5136By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
5137in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
5138this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
5139
51401. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
5141
5142	make O=/tmp/build distclean
5143	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
5144	make O=/tmp/build all
5145
51462. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location:
5147
5148	export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build
5149	make distclean
5150	make NAME_defconfig
5151	make all
5152
5153Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment
5154variable.
5155
5156
5157Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
5158for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
5159native "make".
5160
5161
5162If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
5163to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
5164steps:
5165
51661.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
5167    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
5168    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
51692.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
5170    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
5171    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
51723.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
5173    your board
51743.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
5175    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
51764.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
51775.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
5178    to be installed on your target system.
51796.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
5180    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
5181
5182
5183Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
5184==============================================================
5185
5186If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
5187or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
5188provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
5189the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
5190official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
5191
5192But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
5193cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
5194the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
5195just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
5196for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
5197select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
5198environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
5199you can type
5200
5201	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5202
5203or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
5204
5205	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
5206
5207When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
5208U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
5209setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
5210built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
5211<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
5212location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
5213variable. For example:
5214
5215	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
5216	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
5217	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5218
5219With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
5220log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
5221during the whole build process.

5278
5279TODO.
5280
5281For now: just type "help <command>".
5282
5283
5284Environment Variables:
5285======================
5286
5287U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
5288can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
5289
5290Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
5291"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
5292without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
5293environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
5294working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
5295environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
5296
5297Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
5298
5299List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
5300
5301  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
5302
5303  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
5304
5305  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
5306
5307  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
5308
5309  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
5310
5311  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5312		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5313		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
5314		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
5315		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
5316		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
5317		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
5318		  bootm_mapsize.
5319
5320  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
5321		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
5322		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
5323		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
5324		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
5325		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
5326		  used otherwise.
5327
5328  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5329		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5330		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
5331		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
5332		  environment variable.
5333
5334  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
5335		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
5336		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
5337
5338  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
5339		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
5340		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
5341		  load any image using TFTP
5342
5343  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
5344		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
5345		  be automatically started (by internally calling
5346		  "bootm")
5347
5348		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
5349		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
5350		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
5351		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
5352		  data.
5353
5354  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
5355		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
5356		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
5357		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
5358		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
5359		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
5360		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
5361		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
5362		  access it during the boot procedure.
5363
5364		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
5365		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
5366		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
5367		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
5368		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
5369		  must be accessible by the kernel.
5370
5371  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
5372		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
5373		  defined.
5374
5375  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
5376		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
5377		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
5378		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
5379		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
5380
5381  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
5382		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
5383		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
5384		  is usually what you want since it allows for
5385		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
5386		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
5387		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
5388		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
5389		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
5390		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
5391		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
5392
5393		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
5394		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
5395		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
5396		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
5397		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
5398		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
5399
5400		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
5401
5402		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
5403		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
5404		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
5405		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
5406		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
5407		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
5408		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
5409
5410  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5411
5412  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
5413		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
5414
5415  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
5416
5417  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5418
5419  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
5420
5421  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
5422
5423  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
5424
5425  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
5426
5427  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
5428		  For example you can do the following
5429
5430		  => setenv ethact FEC
5431		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
5432		  => setenv ethact SCC
5433		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
5434
5435  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
5436		  available network interfaces.
5437		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
5438
5439  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
5440		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
5441		  When set to "once" the network operation will
5442		  fail when all the available network interfaces
5443		  are tried once without success.
5444		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
5445		  themselves.
5446
5447  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
5448
5449  silent_linux  - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by
5450		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
5451		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
5452		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
5453		  is silent.
5454
5455  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
5456		  UDP source port.
5457
5458  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
5459		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
5460
5461  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
5462		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
5463
5464  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
5465		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
5466		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
5467		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
5468		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
5469		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
5470		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
5471
5472  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
5473		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
5474		  VLAN tagged frames.
5475
5476The following image location variables contain the location of images
5477used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
5478not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
5479variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
5480server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
5481loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
5482flash or offset in NAND flash.
5483
5484*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
5485boards currently use other variables for these purposes, and some
5486boards use these variables for other purposes.
5487
5488Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
5489-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
5490u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
5491Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
5492device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
5493ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
5494
5495The following environment variables may be used and automatically
5496updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
5497depending the information provided by your boot server:
5498
5499  bootfile	- see above
5500  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
5501  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5502  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5503  hostname	- Target hostname
5504  ipaddr	- see above
5505  netmask	- Subnet Mask
5506  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5507  serverip	- see above
5508
5509
5510There are two special Environment Variables:
5511
5512  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
5513		  as type string and/or serial number
5514  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
5515
5516These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5517the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5518once they have been set once.
5519
5520
5521Further special Environment Variables:
5522
5523  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5524		  with the "version" command. This variable is
5525		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
5526
5527
5528Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
5529only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
5530
5531
5532Callback functions for environment variables:
5533---------------------------------------------
5534
5535For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5536when their values are changed.  This functionality allows functions to
5537be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
5538deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5539effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5540
5541The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5542U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5543
5544These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
5545static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5546in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5547associations.  The list must be in the following format:
5548
5549	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5550	list = entry[,list]
5551
5552If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5553Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5554
5555Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5556with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
5557override any association in the static list. You can define
5558CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5559".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5560
5561If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
5562regular expression. This allows multiple variables to be connected to
5563the same callback without explicitly listing them all out.
5564
5565
5566Command Line Parsing:
5567=====================
5568
5569There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5570the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5571
5572Old, simple command line parser:
5573--------------------------------
5574
5575- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5576- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5577- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5578- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5579  for example:
5580	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5581- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5582	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5583
5584Hush shell:
5585-----------
5586
5587- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5588  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5589  until...do...done, ...
5590- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5591  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5592  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5593  command
5594
5595General rules:
5596--------------
5597
5598(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5599    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5600    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5601    executed anyway.
5602
5603(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5604    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5605    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5606    variables are not executed.
5607
5608Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5609=======================================
5610
5611Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5612such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5613"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5614
5615Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5616MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5617"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5618
5619If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5620in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5621ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5622variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5623
5624o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5625  environment, the SROM's address is used.
5626
5627o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5628  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5629  used.
5630
5631o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5632  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5633
5634o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5635  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5636  warning is printed.
5637
5638o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5639  is raised. If CONFIG_NET_RANDOM_ETHADDR is defined, then in this case
5640  a random, locally-assigned MAC is used.
5641
5642If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5643will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
5644may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5645The naming convention is as follows:
5646"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5647
5648Image Formats:
5649==============
5650
5651U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5652images in two formats:
5653
5654New uImage format (FIT)
5655-----------------------
5656
5657Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5658to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5659components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5660SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5661
5662
5663Old uImage format
5664-----------------
5665
5666Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5667preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5668details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5669
5670* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5671  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5672  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5673  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5674  INTEGRITY).
5675* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5676  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5677  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5678* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5679* Load Address
5680* Entry Point
5681* Image Name
5682* Image Timestamp
5683
5684The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5685and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5686CRC32 checksums.
5687
5688
5689Linux Support:
5690==============
5691
5692Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5693easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5694U-Boot.
5695
5696U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5697special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5698"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5699instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5700serves several purposes:
5701
5702- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5703  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5704  Flash memory footprint)
5705
5706- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5707  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5708
5709- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5710  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5711  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5712  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5713  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5714  software is easier now.
5715
5716
5717Linux HOWTO:
5718============
5719
5720Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5721---------------------------------------
5722
5723U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5724configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5725(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5726Linux :-).
5727
5728But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5729
5730Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5731include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5732Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5733and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5734as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5735
5736Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
5737If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
5738is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
5739doc/driver-model.
5740
5741
5742Configuring the Linux kernel:
5743-----------------------------
5744
5745No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5746device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5747
5748
5749Building a Linux Image:
5750-----------------------
5751
5752With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5753not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5754"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5755U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5756which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5757100% compatible format.
5758
5759Example:
5760
5761	make TQM850L_defconfig
5762	make oldconfig
5763	make dep
5764	make uImage
5765
5766The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5767encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5768CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5769
5770* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5771
5772* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5773
5774	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5775				 -R .note -R .comment \
5776				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5777
5778* compress the binary image:
5779
5780	gzip -9 linux.bin
5781
5782* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5783
5784	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5785		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5786		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5787
5788
5789The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5790with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5791combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5792byte header containing information about target architecture,
5793operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5794stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5795
5796"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5797print the header information, or to build new images.
5798
5799In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5800contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5801checksum verification:
5802
5803	tools/mkimage -l image
5804	  -l ==> list image header information
5805
5806The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5807from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5808
5809	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5810		      -n name -d data_file image
5811	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5812	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5813	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5814	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5815	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5816	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5817	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5818	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5819
5820Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5821address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5822kernel version:
5823
5824- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5825- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5826
5827So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5828
5829	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5830	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5831	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5832	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5833	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5834	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5835	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5836	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5837	Load Address: 0x00000000
5838	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5839
5840To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5841
5842	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5843	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5844	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5845	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5846	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5847	Load Address: 0x00000000
5848	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5849
5850NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5851speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5852needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5853need to be uncompressed:
5854
5855	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz

5868Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5869when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5870
5871	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5872	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \

5880
5881The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5882option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5883option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5884from the image:
5885
5886	tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file
5887	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file'
5888	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5889	  -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image'
5890
5891
5892Installing a Linux Image:
5893-------------------------
5894
5895To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5896you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5897
5898	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5899
5900The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5901image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5902address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5903specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5904command.
5905
5906Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5907TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5908
5909	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5910
5911	.......... done
5912	Erased 8 sectors
5913
5914	=> loads 40100000

5920	[file transfer complete]
5921	[connected]
5922	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5923
5924
5925You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5926this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5927corruption happened:
5928
5929	=> imi 40100000

5940Boot Linux:
5941-----------
5942
5943The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5944memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5945of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5946parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5947"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5948
5949
5950	=> printenv bootargs
5951	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5952
5953	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5954
5955	=> printenv bootargs

6072More About U-Boot Image Types:
6073------------------------------
6074
6075U-Boot supports the following image types:
6076
6077   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
6078	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
6079	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
6080	the Standalone Program.
6081   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
6082	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
6083	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
6084	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
6085	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
6086   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
6087	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
6088	being started.
6089   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
6090	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
6091	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
6092	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
6093	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
6094	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
6095
6096	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
6097	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
6098	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
6099	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
6100	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
6101	a multiple of 4 bytes).
6102
6103   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
6104	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
6105	flash memory.
6106
6107   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
6108	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
6109	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
6110	as command interpreter.
6111
6112Booting the Linux zImage:
6113-------------------------
6114
6115On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
6116using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
6117as the syntax of "bootm" command.
6118
6119Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
6120kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
6121address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
6122format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
6123
6124
6125Standalone HOWTO:
6126=================
6127
6128One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
6129run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
6130U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
6131
6132Two simple examples are included with the sources:
6133
6134"Hello World" Demo:
6135-------------------
6136
6137'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
6138application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
6139It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
6140like that:
6141
6142	=> loads
6143	## Ready for S-Record download ...
6144	~>examples/hello_world.srec
6145	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
6146	[file transfer complete]
6147	[connected]
6148	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
6149
6150	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
6151	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
6152	Hello World
6153	argc = 7
6154	argv[0] = "40004"
6155	argv[1] = "Hello"
6156	argv[2] = "World!"
6157	argv[3] = "This"
6158	argv[4] = "is"
6159	argv[5] = "a"
6160	argv[6] = "test."
6161	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
6162	Hit any key to exit ...
6163
6164	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
6165
6166Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
6167handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
6168Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
6169The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
6170character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
6171controlled by the following keys:
6172
6173	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
6174	b - enable interrupts and start timer
6175	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
6176	q - quit application
6177
6178	=> loads

6213Minicom warning:
6214================
6215
6216Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
6217"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
6218consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
6219Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
6220especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
6221use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
6222http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
6223for help with kermit.
6224
6225
6226Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
6227configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
6228
6229	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
6230	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N

6234NetBSD Notes:
6235=============
6236
6237Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
6238(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
6239
6240Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
6241NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
6242need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
6243Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
6244attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
6245missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
6246
6247	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
6248	# mkdir powerpc
6249	# ln -s powerpc machine
6250	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
6251	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
6252
6253Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
6254and U-Boot include files.
6255
6256Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
6257stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
6258proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
6259tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
6260meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
6261
6262
6263Implementation Internals:
6264=========================
6265
6266The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
6267implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
6268inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
6269hardware.
6270
6271
6272Initial Stack, Global Data:
6273---------------------------
6274
6275The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
6276starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
6277system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
6278This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
6279is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
6280at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
6281options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
6282models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
6283MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
6284locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
6285

6293
6294	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
6295	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
6296	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
6297	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
6298	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
6299	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
6300	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
6301	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
6302
6303	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
6304	is another option for the system designer to use as an
6305	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
6306	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
6307	board designers haven't used it for something that would
6308	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
6309	used.
6310
6311	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
6312	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
6313	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
6314	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
6315	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
6316	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
6317	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
6318	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
6319	you get the config right.

6324It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
6325code for the initialization procedures:
6326
6327* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
6328  to write it.
6329
6330* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized
6331  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
6332  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
6333
6334* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
6335  that.
6336
6337Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
6338normal global data to share information between the code. But it
6339turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
6340simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
6341functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
6342functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
6343the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
6344place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
6345reserve for this purpose.
6346
6347When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
6348relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
6349GCC's implementation.
6350
6351For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
6352	R1:	stack pointer
6353	R2:	reserved for system use
6354	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
6355	R5-R10: parameter passing
6356	R13:	small data area pointer
6357	R30:	GOT pointer
6358	R31:	frame pointer
6359
6360	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
6361	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
6362	going back and forth between asm and C)
6363
6364    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
6365
6366    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
6367    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
6368    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
6369    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
6370    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
6371    624 text + 127 data).
6372
6373On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
6374	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
6375
6376    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
6377
6378On ARM, the following registers are used:
6379
6380	R0:	function argument word/integer result
6381	R1-R3:	function argument word
6382	R9:	platform specific
6383	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
6384	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
6385	R12:	temporary workspace
6386	R13:	stack pointer
6387	R14:	link register
6388	R15:	program counter
6389
6390    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
6391
6392    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
6393
6394On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
6395	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
6396
6397    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
6398
6399    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
6400    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
6401
6402On NDS32, the following registers are used:
6403
6404	R0-R1:	argument/return
6405	R2-R5:	argument
6406	R15:	temporary register for assembler
6407	R16:	trampoline register
6408	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
6409	R29:	global pointer (GP)
6410	R30:	link register (LP)
6411	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
6412	PC:	program counter (PC)
6413
6414    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
6415
6416NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
6417or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
6418
6419Memory Management:
6420------------------
6421
6422U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
6423MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
6424
6425The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
6426controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
6427memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
6428physical memory banks.
6429
6430U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
6431TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
6432booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
6433to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
6434memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
6435configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
6436Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
6437
6438Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
6439of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
6440
6441So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
6442this:
6443
6444	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
6445	      :
6446	0x0000 1FFF
6447	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
6448	      :
6449	      :
6450
6451	      :
6452	      :
6453	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
6454	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
6455	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
6456	      :
6457	0x00FD FFFF
6458	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
6459	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
6460	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
6461	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
6462
6463
6464System Initialization:
6465----------------------
6466
6467In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
6468(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
6469configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory.
6470To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
6471To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
6472initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
6473which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
6474part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
6475the caches and the SIU.
6476
6477Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
6478preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
6479(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
6480on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
6481programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
6482simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
6483banks.
6484
6485When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
6486different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
6487bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
64880x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
6489contiguous memory starting from 0.
6490
6491Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
6492and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
6493Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
6494pages, and the final stack is set up.
6495
6496Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
6497until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
6498running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
6499new address in RAM.

6576Coding Standards:
6577-----------------
6578
6579All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6580coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6581"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6582
6583Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6584MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6585reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6586sources.
6587
6588Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6589Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6590in your code.
6591
6592Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6593- remove any trailing white space
6594- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6595- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6596- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6597- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6598
6599Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6600with a request to reformat the changes.
6601
6602
6603Submitting Patches:
6604-------------------
6605
6606Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6607establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6608may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6609
6610Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6611
6612Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6613see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6614
6615When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6616it:
6617
6618* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6619  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6620  patch actually fixes something.
6621
6622* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6623  implementation.
6624
6625* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6626
6627* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
6628
6629* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6630  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6631
6632* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6633  document these in the README file.
6634
6635* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6636  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6637  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6638  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6639  with some other mail clients.
6640
6641  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6642  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6643  GNU diff.
6644
6645  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6646  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6647  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6648  affected files).
6649
6650  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6651  and compressed attachments must not be used.
6652
6653* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6654  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6655
6656* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6657  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6658
6659
6660Notes:
6661
6662* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6663  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6664  for any of the boards.
6665
6666* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6667  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6668  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6669
6670* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6671  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6672  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6673  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6674  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6675  modification.
6676
6677* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6678  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6679  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6680  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
