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 file to find out who contributed
38the specific port. In addition, there are various MAINTAINERS files
39scattered throughout the U-Boot source identifying the people or
40companies responsible for various boards and subsystems.
41
42Note: As of August, 2010, there is no longer a CHANGELOG file in the
43actual U-Boot source tree; however, it can be created dynamically
44from the Git log using:
45
46	make CHANGELOG

170
171Software Configuration:
172=======================
173
174Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
175rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
176
177There are two classes of configuration variables:
178
179* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
180  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
181  "CONFIG_".
182
183* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
184  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
185  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
186  "CONFIG_SYS_".
187
188Previously, all configuration was done by hand, which involved creating
189symbolic links and editing configuration files manually. More recently,
190U-Boot has added the Kbuild infrastructure used by the Linux kernel,
191allowing you to use the "make menuconfig" command to configure your
192build.
193
194
195Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
196---------------------------------------------------
197
198For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
199configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig".
200
201Example: For a TQM823L module type:
202
203	cd u-boot
204	make TQM823L_defconfig
205
206Note: If you're looking for the default configuration file for a board
207you're sure used to be there but is now missing, check the file
208doc/README.scrapyard for a list of no longer supported boards.
209
210Sandbox Environment:
211--------------------
212
213U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox'
214board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture-
215specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to
216run some of U-Boot's tests.
217
218See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details.
219
220
221Board Initialisation Flow:
222--------------------------
223
224This is the intended start-up flow for boards. This should apply for both
225SPL and U-Boot proper (i.e. they both follow the same rules).
226
227Note: "SPL" stands for "Secondary Program Loader," which is explained in
228more detail later in this file.
229
230At present, SPL mostly uses a separate code path, but the function names
231and roles of each function are the same. Some boards or architectures
232may not conform to this.  At least most ARM boards which use
233CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK conform to this.
234
235Execution typically starts with an architecture-specific (and possibly
236CPU-specific) start.S file, such as:
237
238	- arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S
239	- arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc83xx/start.S
240	- arch/mips/cpu/start.S
241
242and so on. From there, three functions are called; the purpose and
243limitations of each of these functions are described below.
244
245lowlevel_init():
246	- purpose: essential init to permit execution to reach board_init_f()
247	- no global_data or BSS
248	- there is no stack (ARMv7 may have one but it will soon be removed)
249	- must not set up SDRAM or use console
250	- must only do the bare minimum to allow execution to continue to
251		board_init_f()
252	- this is almost never needed
253	- return normally from this function
254
255board_init_f():
256	- purpose: set up the machine ready for running board_init_r():
257		i.e. SDRAM and serial UART
258	- global_data is available
259	- stack is in SRAM
260	- BSS is not available, so you cannot use global/static variables,
261		only stack variables and global_data
262
263	Non-SPL-specific notes:
264	- dram_init() is called to set up DRAM. If already done in SPL this
265		can do nothing
266
267	SPL-specific notes:
268	- you can override the entire board_init_f() function with your own
269		version as needed.
270	- preloader_console_init() can be called here in extremis
271	- should set up SDRAM, and anything needed to make the UART work
272	- these is no need to clear BSS, it will be done by crt0.S
273	- must return normally from this function (don't call board_init_r()
274		directly)
275
276Here the BSS is cleared. For SPL, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined, then at
277this point the stack and global_data are relocated to below
278CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR. For non-SPL, U-Boot is relocated to run at the top of
279memory.
280
281board_init_r():
282	- purpose: main execution, common code
283	- global_data is available
284	- SDRAM is available
285	- BSS is available, all static/global variables can be used
286	- execution eventually continues to main_loop()
287
288	Non-SPL-specific notes:
289	- U-Boot is relocated to the top of memory and is now running from
290		there.
291
292	SPL-specific notes:
293	- stack is optionally in SDRAM, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined and
294		CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR points into SDRAM
295	- preloader_console_init() can be called here - typically this is
296		done by defining CONFIG_SPL_BOARD_INIT and then supplying a
297		spl_board_init() function containing this call
298	- loads U-Boot or (in falcon mode) Linux

302Configuration Options:
303----------------------
304
305Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
306such information is kept in a configuration file
307"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
308
309Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
310"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
311
312
313Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
314kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
315build a config tool - later.
316
317
318The following options need to be configured:
319
320- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
321
322- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
323
324- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
325		Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
326
327- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
328		Define exactly one of
329		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
330--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
331		CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
332		CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
333
334- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
335		Define exactly one of
336		CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
337
338- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
339		Define one or more of
340		CONFIG_CMA302
341
342- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
343		Define one or more of
344		CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT	- update a character position on
345					  the LCD display every second with
346					  a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
347
348- Marvell Family Member
349		CONFIG_SYS_MVFS		- define it if you want to enable
350					  multiple fs option at one time
351					  for marvell soc family
352
353- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
354		CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ	- deprecated: CPU clock if
355					  get_gclk_freq() cannot work
356					  e.g. if there is no 32KHz
357					  reference PIT/RTC clock
358		CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK	- PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
359					  or XTAL/EXTAL)
360
361- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
362		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
363		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
364		CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
365			See doc/README.MPC866
366
367		CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
368
369		Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
370		of relying on the correctness of the configured
371		values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
372		the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
373		that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
374		RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
375
376		CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
377
378		Define this option if you want to enable the
379		ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
380
381- 85xx CPU Options:
382		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
383
384		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
385		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
386		compliance, among other possible reasons.
387
388		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
389
390		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
391		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
392		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
393
394		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
395
396		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
397		tree nodes for the given platform.
398
399		CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
400
401		Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
402		around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
403		support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
404		breakpoints and single stepping do not work.  The value of this
405		symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
406		purpose.
407
408		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
409
410		Enables a workaround for erratum A004510.  If set,
411		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
412		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
413
414		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
415		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
416
417		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
418		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
419
420		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
421		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
422		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
423		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
424
425		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
426		this erratum.
427
428		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
429		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
430		required during NOR boot.
431
432		CONFIG_A008044_WORKAROUND
433		Enables a workaround for T1040/T1042 erratum A008044. It is only
434		required during NAND boot and valid for Rev 1.0 SoC revision
435
436		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
437
438		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
439		according to the A004510 workaround.
440
441		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
442		This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
443		connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
444
445		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
446		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
447		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
448
449		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
450		This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
451		connected to the DSP core.
452
453		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
454		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
455
456		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
457		Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
458		In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
459		clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
460
461		CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F
462		This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the
463		time of U-boot entry and is required to be re-initialized.
464
465		CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP
466		Indicates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is
467		supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up.
468
469- Generic CPU options:
470		CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA
471		Defines global data is initialized in generic board board_init_f().
472		If this macro is defined, global data is created and cleared in
473		generic board board_init_f(). Without this macro, architecture/board
474		should initialize global data before calling board_init_f().
475
476		CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
477
478		Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
479		values is arch specific.
480
481		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR
482		Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is
483		found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core

510		Freescale DDR1 or DDR2 controllers, depending on the board
511		implemetation.
512
513		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR2
514		Board config to use DDR2. It can be eanbeld for SoCs with
515		Freescale DDR2 or DDR3 controllers, depending on the board

555		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_SDRAM_BASE_PHY
556		Physical address from the view of DDR controllers. It is the
557		same as CONFIG_SYS_DDR_SDRAM_BASE for  all Power SoCs. But
558		it could be different for ARM SoCs.
559
560		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_INTLV_256B
561		DDR controller interleaving on 256-byte. This is a special
562		interleaving mode, handled by Dickens for Freescale layerscape
563		SoCs with ARM core.
564
565		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_MAIN_NUM_CTRLS
566		Number of controllers used as main memory.
567
568		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_OTHER_DDR_NUM_CTRLS

575		Defines the SEC controller register space as Big Endian
576
577		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_LE
578		Defines the SEC controller register space as Little Endian
579
580- Intel Monahans options:
581		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO
582
583		Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator
584		ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core
585		frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz.
586
587		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO
588
589		Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator
590		ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and
591		2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied
592		by this value.
593
594- MIPS CPU options:
595		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET
596
597		Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack
598		pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before
599		relocation.
600
601		CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE
602
603		Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU.
604		See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h.
605		Possible values are:
606			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA
607			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA
608			CONF_CM_UNCACHED
609			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT

611			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW
612			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW
613			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
614
615		CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
616
617		Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
618		See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
619
620		CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
621
622		Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
623		XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
624		be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
625
626- ARM options:
627		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
628
629		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
630		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
631
632		CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
633
634		Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
635		set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
636		better code density. For ARM architectures that support
637		Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
638		GCC.
639
640		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
641		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
642		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
643		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
644		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_761320
645		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_773022
646		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_774769
647		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072
648
649		If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
650		during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
651		workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
652		exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
653		set these options unless they apply!
654
655		COUNTER_FREQUENCY
656		Generic timer clock source frequency.
657
658		COUNTER_FREQUENCY_REAL
659		Generic timer clock source frequency if the real clock is
660		different from COUNTER_FREQUENCY, and can only be determined
661		at run time.
662
663		NOTE: The following can be machine specific errata. These
664		do have ability to provide rudimentary version and machine
665		specific checks, but expect no product checks.
666		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_430973
667		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_454179
668		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_621766
669		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_798870
670		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_801819
671
672- Tegra SoC options:
673		CONFIG_TEGRA_SUPPORT_NON_SECURE
674
675		Support executing U-Boot in non-secure (NS) mode. Certain
676		impossible actions will be skipped if the CPU is in NS mode,
677		such as ARM architectural timer initialization.
678
679- Linux Kernel Interface:
680		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
681
682		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
683		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
684		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
685		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
686		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
687		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
688		Linux kernel.
689		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
690		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
691		default environment.
692
693		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
694
695		When transferring memsize parameter to Linux, some versions
696		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
697		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
698
699		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
700
701		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
702		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
703		concepts).
704
705		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
706		 * New libfdt-based support
707		 * Adds the "fdt" command
708		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
709
710		OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
711			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
712		OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
713			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
714		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
715		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
716
717		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
718		addresses
719
720		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
721
722		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
723		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
724
725		CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP
726
727		Other code has addition modification that it wants to make
728		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel.
729		This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting
730		the kernel.
731
732		CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
733
734		This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
735		param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
736
737		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
738
739		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
740		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
741		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
742		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
743		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
744		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
745
746		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
747
748		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
749		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
750		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
751		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
752		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
753		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
754		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
755
756- vxWorks boot parameters:
757
758		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
759		environments variables: bootdev, bootfile, ipaddr, netmask,
760		serverip, gatewayip, hostname, othbootargs.
761		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
762
763		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
764		the defaults discussed just above.
765
766- Cache Configuration:
767		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
768		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
769		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
770
771- Cache Configuration for ARM:
772		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
773				      controller
774		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
775					controller register space
776
777- Serial Ports:
778		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
779
780		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
781
782		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
783
784		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
785
786		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
787
788		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
789		the clock speed of the UARTs.
790
791		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
792
793		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
794		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
795		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
796
797		CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
798
799		Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
800		Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
801
802- Console Interface:
803		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
804		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
805		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
806		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
807
808		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
809		port routines must be defined elsewhere
810		(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
811
812		CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
813		Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
814		defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
815			VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN	graphic memory organisation
816						(default big endian)
817			VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL	graphic chip supports
818						rectangle fill
819						(cf. smiLynxEM)
820			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
821						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
822			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
823						(cols=pitch)
824			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS	visible pixel rows
825			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE	bytes per pixel
826			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
827						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
828			VIDEO_FB_ADRS		framebuffer address
829			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
830						(i.e. rx51_kp_init())
831			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
832						(i.e. rx51_kp_tstc)
833			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
834						(i.e. rx51_kp_getc)
835			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO	display Linux logo in
836						upper left corner
837			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO	use bmp_logo.h instead of
838						linux_logo.h for logo.
839						Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
840			CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
841						additional board info beside
842						the logo
843
844		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
845		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
846		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
847
848		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
849		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
850		environment 'console=serial'.
851
852		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
853		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
854		the "silent" environment variable. See
855		doc/README.silent for more information.
856
857		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
858			is 0x00.
859		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
860			is 0xa0.
861
862- Console Baudrate:
863		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
864		Select one of the baudrates listed in
865		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
866		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
867
868- Console Rx buffer length
869		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
870		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
871		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
872		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
873		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
874		the SMC.
875
876- Pre-Console Buffer:
877		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
878		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
879		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
880		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
881		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
882		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
883		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
884		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
885		earlier bytes are discarded.
886
887		Note that when printing the buffer a copy is made on the
888		stack so CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ must fit on the stack.
889
890		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
891		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
892
893- Safe printf() functions
894		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
895		the printf() functions. These are defined in
896		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
897		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
898		If this option is not given then these functions will
899		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
900		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
901
902- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
903		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
904		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
905		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
906		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
907
908		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
909		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
910		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
911		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
912		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
913		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
914		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
915		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
916		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
917		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
918
919- Autoboot Command:
920		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
921		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
922		define a command string that is automatically executed
923		when no character is read on the console interface
924		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
925
926		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
927		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
928		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
929		environment value "bootargs".
930
931		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
932		The value of these goes into the environment as
933		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
934		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
935		RAM and NFS.
936
937- Bootcount:
938		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
939		Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
940		cycle, see:
941		http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
942
943		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
944		If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
945		"bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
946		saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
947		"upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
948		0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
949		1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
950		So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
951		and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
952
953- Pre-Boot Commands:
954		CONFIG_PREBOOT
955
956		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
957		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
958		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
959		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
960		entering interactive mode.
961
962		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
963		automatically generated or modified. For an example
964		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
965		modified when the user holds down a certain
966		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
967		booting the systems
968
969- Serial Download Echo Mode:
970		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
971		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
972		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
973		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
974		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
975		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
976		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
977
978- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
979		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
980		Select one of the baudrates listed in
981		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
982
983- Monitor Functions:
984		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
985		from the build by using the #include files
986		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
987		commands, or adding #define's for wanted commands.
988
989		The default command configuration includes all commands
990		except those marked below with a "*".

1100		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
1101		support you can write:
1102
1103		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
1104		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1105
1106	Other Commands:
1107		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1108
1109	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1110		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1111		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1112		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1113		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1114		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1115		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1116		initial stack and some data.
1117
1118
1119		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1120
1121- Regular expression support:
1122		CONFIG_REGEX
1123		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1124		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1125		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1126		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1127
1128- Device tree:
1129		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1130		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1131		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1132		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1133		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1134		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1135
1136		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1137		be done using one of the two options below:
1138
1139		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1140		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1141		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1142		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1143		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1144		the global data structure as gd->blob.
1145
1146		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1147		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1148		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1149		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1150
1151			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1152
1153		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1154		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1155		still use the individual files if you need something more
1156		exotic.
1157
1158- Watchdog:
1159		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1160		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1161		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1162		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1163		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1164		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
1165		available, then no further board specific code should
1166		be needed to use it.
1167
1168		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1169		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1170		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1171		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1172
1173		CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT
1174		specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds.
1175
1176- U-Boot Version:
1177		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1178		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1179		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1180		version as printed by the "version" command.
1181		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1182		next reset.
1183
1184- Real-Time Clock:
1185
1186		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1187		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1188		following options:
1189
1190		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1191		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1192		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1193		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1194		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1195		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1196		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1197		CONFIG_RTC_DS1339	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
1198		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1199		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1200		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1201		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1202		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
1203					  RV3029 RTC.
1204
1205		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1206		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1207
1208- GPIO Support:
1209		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1210
1211		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1212		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1213		pins supported by a particular chip.
1214
1215		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1216		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1217
1218- I/O tracing:
1219		When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
1220		accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
1221		to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
1222		useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
1223		the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
1224		change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
1225		add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
1226		to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
1227
1228		Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
1229		Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
1230		still continue to operate.
1231
1232			iotrace is enabled
1233			Start:  10000000	(buffer start address)
1234			Size:   00010000	(buffer size)
1235			Offset: 00000120	(current buffer offset)
1236			Output: 10000120	(start + offset)
1237			Count:  00000018	(number of trace records)
1238			CRC32:  9526fb66	(CRC32 of all trace records)
1239
1240- Timestamp Support:
1241
1242		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1243		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
1244		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1245		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1246
1247- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1248		Zero or more of the following:
1249		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
1250		CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION   MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1251				       Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1252		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1253		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1254				       bootloader.  Note 2TB partition limit; see
1255				       disk/part_efi.c
1256		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
1257
1258		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1259		CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1260		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1261
1262- IDE Reset method:
1263		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1264		board configurations files but used nowhere!
1265
1266		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1267		be performed by calling the function
1268			ide_set_reset(int reset)
1269		which has to be defined in a board specific file
1270
1271- ATAPI Support:
1272		CONFIG_ATAPI
1273
1274		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1275
1276- LBA48 Support
1277		CONFIG_LBA48
1278
1279		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1280		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1281		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1282		support disks up to 2.1TB.
1283
1284		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1285			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1286			Default is 32bit.
1287
1288- SCSI Support:

1293		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1294		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1295		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1296		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1297		devices.
1298		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1299
1300		The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
1301		SCSI devices found during the last scan.

1490
1491- USB Device:
1492		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1493		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1494		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1495		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1496		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1497		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1498		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1499		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1500		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1501		a Linux host by
1502		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1503		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1504		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1505		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1506
1507			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE

1516			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1517			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1518			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1519			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1520			speed.
1521
1522			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1523			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1524			be set to usbtty.
1525
1526			mpc8xx:
1527				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH

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

2275		    bus.
2276		  - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define

2388
2389		additional defines:
2390
2391		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2392		Hold the number of i2c buses you want to use. If you
2393		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2394		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2395		omit this define.
2396
2397		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2398		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2399		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2400		omit this define.
2401
2402		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2403		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2404		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2405		define.
2406
2407		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2408		hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if
2409		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2410		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2411		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2412
2413		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2414					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2415					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2416					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2417					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2418					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2419					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \

2421					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2422					}
2423
2424		which defines
2425			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
2426			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
2427			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2

2433			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2434
2435		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2436
2437- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2438
2439		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2440		provides the following compelling advantages:
2441
2442		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2443		- approved multibus support
2444		- better i2c mux support
2445
2446		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2447
2448		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2449		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2450		for the selected CPU.
2451
2452		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2453		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2454		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2455		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2456		command line interface.
2457
2458		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2459
2460		There are several other quantities that must also be
2461		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2462
2463		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2464		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2465		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2466		the CPU's i2c node address).
2467
2468		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2469		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2470		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2471		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2472		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2473
2474		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2475
2476		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2477		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2478		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2479		commands until the slave device responds.
2480
2481		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2482
2483		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2484		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2485		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2486
2487		I2C_INIT
2488
2489		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2490		controller or configure ports.
2491
2492		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2493
2494		I2C_PORT
2495
2496		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2497		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2498		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2499
2500		I2C_ACTIVE
2501
2502		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2503		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2504		define can be null.
2505
2506		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2507
2508		I2C_TRISTATE
2509
2510		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2511		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2512		define can be null.
2513
2514		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2515
2516		I2C_READ
2517
2518		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2519		false if it is low.
2520
2521		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2522
2523		I2C_SDA(bit)
2524
2525		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2526		is false, it clears it (low).
2527
2528		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2529			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2530			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2531
2532		I2C_SCL(bit)
2533
2534		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2535		is false, it clears it (low).
2536
2537		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2538			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2539			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2540
2541		I2C_DELAY
2542
2543		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2544		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2545		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2546		like:
2547
2548		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2549
2550		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2551
2552		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2553		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2554		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2555		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2556
2557		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2558		the generic GPIO functions.
2559
2560		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2561
2562		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2563		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2564		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2565		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2566		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2567		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2568		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2569		is run early in the boot sequence.
2570
2571		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2572
2573		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2574		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2575		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2576		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2577		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2578		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2579		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2580		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2581
2582		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2583
2584		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2585		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2586		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2587
2588		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2589
2590		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2591		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2592		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2593		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2594
2595		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2596
2597		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2598		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2599		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2600		a 1D array of device addresses
2601
2602		e.g.
2603			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2604			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2605
2606		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2607
2608			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2609			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2610
2611		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2612
2613		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2614
2615		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2616		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2617
2618		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2619
2620		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2621		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2622
2623		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2624
2625		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2626		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2627
2628		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2629
2630		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2631		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2632		specified DTT device.
2633
2634		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2635
2636		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2637		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2638		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2639		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2640		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2641		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2642		the other.
2643
2644- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2645
2646		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2647		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2648		D/As on the SACSng board)
2649
2650		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2651
2652		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2653		only SH7757 is supported.
2654
2655		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2656
2657		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2658		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2659		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2660		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2661		defined, the board configuration must define several
2662		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2663		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2664
2665		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2666
2667		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2668		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2669		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2670		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2671		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2672
2673		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2674
2675		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2676		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2677
2678		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT
2679		Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed.
2680		default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100)     /* 10 ms */
2681
2682- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2683
2684		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2685
2686		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2687
2688		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2689		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2690
2691		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2692
2693		Enables support for FPGA family.
2694		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2695
2696		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2697
2698		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2699
2700		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK
2701
2702		Enable support for fpga loadmk command
2703
2704		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP
2705
2706		Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream
2707
2708		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP
2709
2710		Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream
2711		(Xilinx only)
2712
2713		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2714
2715		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2716
2717		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2718
2719		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2720		status by the configuration function. This option
2721		will require a board or device specific function to
2722		be written.
2723
2724		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2725
2726		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2727		configuration driver.
2728
2729		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2730		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2731
2732		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2733
2734		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2735		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2736		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2737		indicated a CRC error).
2738
2739		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2740
2741		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to de-assert
2742		after PROB_B has been de-asserted during a Virtex II
2743		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2744		ms.
2745
2746		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2747
2748		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to de-assert during
2749		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2750
2751		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2752
2753		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2754		200 ms.
2755
2756- Configuration Management:
2757		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET
2758
2759		Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary
2760		with a special header) as build targets. By defining
2761		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this
2762		special image will be automatically built upon calling
2763		make / MAKEALL.
2764
2765		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2766
2767		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2768		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2769
2770- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2771
2772		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2773		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2774		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2775		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2776		protects these variables from casual modification by
2777		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2778		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2779		change this behaviour:
2780
2781		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2782		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2783		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2784		these parameters.
2785
2786		Alternatively, if you define _both_ an ethaddr in the
2787		default env _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2788		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2789		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2790		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2791		read-only.]
2792
2793		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2794		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2795		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2796		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2797
2798- Protected RAM:
2799		CONFIG_PRAM
2800
2801		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2802		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2803		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2804		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2805		this default value by defining an environment
2806		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2807		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2808		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2809		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2810		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2811		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2812		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2813
2814			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2815			saveenv
2816
2817		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2818		either, which results in a memory region that will
2819		not be affected by reboots.
2820
2821		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2822		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2823		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2824		following board configurations are known to be
2825		"pRAM-clean":
2826
2827			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2828			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2829			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2830
2831- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2832		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2833		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2834		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2835		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2836		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2837		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2838
2839- Error Recovery:
2840		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2841
2842		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2843		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2844		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2845		system where you want the system to reboot
2846		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2847		useful during development since you can try to debug
2848		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2849
2850		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2851
2852		This variable defines the number of retries for
2853		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2854		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2855		default value of 5 is used.
2856
2857		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2858
2859		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2860
2861		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2862
2863		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2864		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2865		try longer timeout such as
2866		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2867
2868- Command Interpreter:
2869		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2870
2871		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2872
2873		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2874
2875		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2876		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2877		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2878
2879	Note:
2880
2881		In the current implementation, the local variables
2882		space and global environment variables space are
2883		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2884		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2885		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2886		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2887		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2888
2889		Global environment variables are those you use
2890		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2891		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2892		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2893
2894		To store commands and special characters in a
2895		variable, please use double quotation marks
2896		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2897		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2898		symbols.
2899
2900- Command Line Editing and History:
2901		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2902
2903		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2904		command line input operations
2905
2906- Default Environment:
2907		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2908
2909		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2910		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2911		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2912
2913		For example, place something like this in your
2914		board's config file:
2915
2916		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2917			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2918			"myvar2=value2\0"
2919
2920		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2921		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2922		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2923		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2924		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2925		You better know what you are doing here.
2926
2927		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2928		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2929		the environment like the "source" command or the
2930		boot command first.
2931
2932		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2933
2934		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2935		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2936		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2937
2938		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2939
2940		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2941		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2942		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2943		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2944		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2945
2946		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2947
2948		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2949		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2950		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2951
2952		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2953
2954		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2955		initialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2956		that so that the environment is not available until
2957		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2958		this is instead controlled by the value of
2959		/config/load-environment.
2960
2961- Parallel Flash support:
2962		CONFIG_SYS_NO_FLASH
2963
2964		Traditionally U-boot was run on systems with parallel NOR
2965		flash. This option is used to disable support for parallel NOR
2966		flash. This option should be defined if the board does not have
2967		parallel flash.
2968
2969		If this option is not defined one of the generic flash drivers
2970		(e.g.  CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER or CONFIG_ST_SMI) must be
2971		selected or the board must provide an implementation of the
2972		flash API (see include/flash.h).
2973
2974- DataFlash Support:
2975		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2976
2977		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2978		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2979		commands cp, md...
2980
2981- Serial Flash support
2982		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2983
2984		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2985		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2986
2987		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2988		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2989		commands.
2990
2991		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2992		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2993		flash is present on the system.
2994
2995		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2996		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2997		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2998		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2999
3000		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
3001
3002		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
3003		test ('sf test').
3004
3005		CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH		Dual flash memories
3006
3007		Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
3008		memories can be connected with a given cs line.
3009		Currently Xilinx Zynq qspi supports these type of connections.
3010
3011- SystemACE Support:
3012		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
3013
3014		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
3015		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
3016		of the chip must also be defined in the
3017		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
3018
3019		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
3020		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
3021
3022		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
3023		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
3024
3025- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
3026		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
3027
3028		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
3029		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
3030		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
3031		number generator is used.
3032
3033		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
3034		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
3035		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
3036
3037		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
3038		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
3039		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
3040		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
3041		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
3042		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
3043		but sometimes that is not allowed.
3044
3045- Hashing support:
3046		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
3047
3048		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
3049		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
3050
3051		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
3052
3053		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
3054		size a little.
3055
3056		CONFIG_SHA1 - This option enables support of hashing using SHA1
3057		algorithm. The hash is calculated in software.
3058		CONFIG_SHA256 - This option enables support of hashing using
3059		SHA256 algorithm. The hash is calculated in software.
3060		CONFIG_SHA_HW_ACCEL - This option enables hardware acceleration
3061		for SHA1/SHA256 hashing.
3062		This affects the 'hash' command and also the
3063		hash_lookup_algo() function.
3064		CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL - This option enables
3065		hardware-acceleration for SHA1/SHA256 progressive hashing.
3066		Data can be streamed in a block at a time and the hashing
3067		is performed in hardware.
3068
3069		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
3070		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
3071
3072- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
3073		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
3074		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
3075		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
3076
3077		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
3078		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
3079		a boot from specific media.
3080
3081		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
3082		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
3083		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
3084		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
3085		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
3086
3087- Signing support:
3088		CONFIG_RSA
3089
3090		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
3091		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
3092
3093		The Modular Exponentiation algorithm in RSA is implemented using
3094		driver model. So CONFIG_DM needs to be enabled by default for this
3095		library to function.
3096
3097		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
3098		option. The software based modular exponentiation is built into
3099		mkimage irrespective of this option.
3100
3101- bootcount support:
3102		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
3103
3104		This enables the bootcounter support, see:
3105		http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
3106
3107		CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
3108		enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
3109		CONFIG_BLACKFIN
3110		enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
3111		CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
3112		enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
3113		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
3114		enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
3115		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
3116		enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
3117			CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
3118			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
3119						    the bootcounter.
3120			CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
3121
3122- Show boot progress:
3123		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
3124
3125		Defining this option allows to add some board-
3126		specific code (calling a user-provided function
3127		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
3128		the system's boot progress on some display (for
3129		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
3130		the following checkpoints are implemented:
3131

3285
3286- legacy image format:
3287		CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3288		enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
3289
3290		Default:
3291		enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
3292
3293		CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
3294		disable the legacy image format
3295
3296		This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
3297		enabled per default for backward compatibility.
3298
3299- FIT image support:
3300		CONFIG_FIT
3301		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
3302
3303		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3304		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3305		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3306		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3307		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3308		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3309
3310		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
3311		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
3312		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. If
3313		CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL is defined, i.e support for progressive
3314		hashing is available using hardware, RSA library will use it.
3315		See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
3316
3317		WARNING: When relying on signed FIT images with required
3318		signature check the legacy image format is default
3319		disabled. If a board need legacy image format support
3320		enable this through CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3321
3322		CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256
3323		Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size.
3324		For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled
3325		with this option.
3326
3327- Standalone program support:
3328		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3329
3330		This option defines a board specific value for the
3331		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
3332		overwriting the architecture dependent default
3333		settings.
3334
3335- Frame Buffer Address:
3336		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
3337
3338		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3339		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
3340		when using a graphics controller has separate video
3341		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3342		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3343		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3344		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3345		configured panel size.
3346
3347		Please see board_init_f function.
3348
3349- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
3350		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
3351		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
3352		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
3353
3354		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
3355		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
3356
3357- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
3358		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
3359
3360		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
3361		Needed for mtdparts command support.
3362
3363		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
3364
3365		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
3366		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
3367
3368- UBI support
3369		CONFIG_CMD_UBI
3370
3371		Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3372		with the UBI flash translation layer
3373
3374		Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3375
3376		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3377
3378		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
3379		warnings and errors enabled.
3380
3381
3382		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
3383		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
3384		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
3385		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
3386		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
3387		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
3388
3389		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
3390		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
3391		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
3392		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
3393		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
3394
3395		default: 4096
3396
3397		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
3398		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
3399		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
3400		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
3401		flash), this value is ignored.
3402
3403		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
3404		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
3405		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
3406		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
3407		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
3408		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
3409
3410		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
3411		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
3412		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
3413		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
3414		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
3415		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
3416		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
3417		partition.
3418
3419		default: 20
3420
3421		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
3422		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
3423		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
3424		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
3425		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
3426		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
3427		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
3428		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
3429		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
3430		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
3431		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
3432		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
3433
3434		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
3435		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
3436		without a fastmap.
3437		default: 0
3438
3439		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FM_DEBUG
3440		Enable UBI fastmap debug
3441		default: 0
3442
3443- UBIFS support
3444		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3445
3446		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3447		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3448
3449		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3450
3451		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3452
3453		Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing.  This leaves
3454		warnings and errors enabled.
3455
3456- SPL framework
3457		CONFIG_SPL
3458		Enable building of SPL globally.

3461		LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
3462
3463		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
3464		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
3465		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
3466		used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3467		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3468		must not be both defined at the same time.
3469
3470		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
3471		Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and
3472		linker lists sections), BSS excluded.
3473		When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does
3474		not exceed it.
3475
3476		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
3477		TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary.
3478
3479		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE
3480		Address to relocate to.  If unspecified, this is equal to
3481		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done).
3482
3483		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR
3484		Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary.
3485
3486		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3487		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS.
3488		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used
3489		by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3490		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3491		must not be both defined at the same time.
3492
3493		CONFIG_SPL_STACK
3494		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use
3495
3496		CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE
3497		When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has
3498		loaded does not have a signature.
3499		Defining this is useful when code which loads images
3500		in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors
3501		will be caught.
3502		An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will
3503		consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad,
3504		and thus should be skipped silently.
3505
3506		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
3507		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
3508		relocation.  If unspecified, this is equal to
3509		CONFIG_SPL_STACK.
3510
3511		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START
3512		Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL.
3513		When this option is set the full malloc is used in SPL and
3514		it is set up by spl_init() and before that, the simple malloc()
3515		can be used if CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F is defined.
3516
3517		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE
3518		The size of the malloc pool used in SPL.
3519
3520		CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK

3522		supports MMC, NAND and YMODEM loading of U-Boot and NAND
3523		NAND loading of the Linux Kernel.
3524
3525		CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT
3526		Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL.
3527		See also: doc/README.falcon

3530		For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information
3531		about the running system.
3532
3533		CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL
3534		Arch init code should be built for a very small image

3553		Address and partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from
3554		when the MMC is being used in raw mode.
3555
3556		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION
3557		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being
3558		used in raw mode
3559
3560		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR
3561		Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being
3562		used in raw mode (for Falcon mode)

3564		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR,
3565		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS
3566		Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument
3567		parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode
3568		(for falcon mode)

3589		when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
3590
3591		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
3592		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
3593		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3594		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3595		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
3596
3597		CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE
3598		Avoid SPL relocation
3599
3600		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE
3601		Include nand_base.c in the SPL.  Requires
3602		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS.
3603
3604		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS

3606
3607		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC
3608		Include standard software ECC in the SPL
3609
3610		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE

3616		environment on NAND support within SPL.
3617
3618		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY
3619		Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only
3620		if you need to save space.
3621
3622		CONFIG_SPL_MPC8XXX_INIT_DDR_SUPPORT
3623		Set for the SPL on PPC mpc8xxx targets, support for
3624		drivers/ddr/fsl/libddr.o in SPL binary.
3625
3626		CONFIG_SPL_COMMON_INIT_DDR
3627		Set for common ddr init with serial presence detect in
3628		SPL binary.
3629
3630		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT,
3631		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE,
3632		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,
3633		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
3634		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
3635		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
3636		to read U-Boot
3637
3638		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT
3639		Add support NAND boot
3640
3641		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
3642		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from
3643
3644		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST
3645		Location in memory to load U-Boot to
3646
3647		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE
3648		Size of image to load
3649
3650		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
3651		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
3652
3653		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
3654		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
3655		data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms.
3656
3657		CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND
3658		Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the
3659		ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present.
3660
3661		CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT
3662		Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary
3663
3664		CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT
3665		Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary
3666
3667		CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUPPORT
3668		Support for drivers/spi/libspi.o in SPL binary
3669
3670		CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE
3671		Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary
3672
3673		CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT
3674		Support for lib/libgeneric.o in SPL binary
3675
3676		CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT
3677		Support for the environment operating in SPL binary
3678
3679		CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT
3680		Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary.
3681		It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by
3682		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3683
3684		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3685		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3686		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3687		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3688		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3689		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3690
3691		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3692		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3693		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3694		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3695
3696		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3697		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3698		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3699		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3700		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3701
3702- TPL framework
3703		CONFIG_TPL
3704		Enable building of TPL globally.
3705
3706		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
3707		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
3708		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3709		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3710		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3711		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3712
3713Modem Support:
3714--------------
3715
3716[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3717
3718- Modem support enable:
3719		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3720
3721- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3722		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3723
3724- Modem debug support:
3725		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3726
3727		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3728		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3729
3730- Interrupt support (PPC):
3731
3732		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3733		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3734		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3735		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3736		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3737		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3738		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3739		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3740		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3741		general timer_interrupt().
3742
3743- General:
3744
3745		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3746		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3747		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3748		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3749		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3750		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3751		initialization.
3752
3753		If there are no modem init strings in the
3754		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3755		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3756		suppressed, though.
3757
3758		See also: doc/README.Modem
3759
3760Board initialization settings:
3761------------------------------
3762
3763During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3764to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3765before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3766following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3767architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3768typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3769
3770- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3771- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3772- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3773- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3774
3775Configuration Settings:
3776-----------------------
3777
3778- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
3779		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
3780
3781- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3782		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3783
3784- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3785		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3786
3787- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3788		prompt for user input.
3789
3790- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3791
3792- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3793
3794- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3795
3796- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3797		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3798		booted
3799
3800- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3801		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3802
3803- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3804		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3805
3806- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3807		If the board specific function
3808			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3809		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3810		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3811
3812- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3813		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3814
3815- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3816		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3817
3818- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3819		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3820		simple memory test.
3821
3822- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3823		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3824
3825- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3826		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3827		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3828
3829- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE
3830		If defined, the size of CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE memory
3831		is substracted from total RAM and won't be reported to OS.
3832		This memory can be used as secure memory. A variable
3833		gd->secure_ram is used to track the location. In systems
3834		the RAM base is not zero, or RAM is divided into banks,
3835		this variable needs to be recalcuated to get the address.
3836
3837- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE:
3838		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3839		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3840		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3841		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3842		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3843		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3844		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3845		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3846		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3847
3848		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3849		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3850		be touched.
3851
3852		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3853		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3854		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3855		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3856		problems.
3857
3858- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3859		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3860
3861- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3862		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3863
3864- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3865		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3866		Cogent motherboard)
3867
3868- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3869		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3870
3871- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3872		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3873		make config files to be same as the text base address
3874		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3875		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3876
3877- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3878		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3879		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3880		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3881		flash sector.
3882
3883- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3884		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3885
3886- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3887		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3888		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3889		will become available before relocation. The address is just
3890		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3891		space.
3892
3893		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3894		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3895		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3896		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when
3897		U-Boot relocates itself.
3898
3899		Pre-relocation malloc() is only supported on ARM and sandbox
3900		at present but is fairly easy to enable for other archs.
3901
3902- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE
3903		Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those
3904		boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is
3905		enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START).
3906
3907- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY:
3908		Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be
3909		typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped
3910		uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would
3911		otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For
3912		some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the
3913		cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed
3914		are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding
3915		cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e.
3916		if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the
3917		size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of
3918		one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has
3919		written to another region in the same cache-line. This can
3920		happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for
3921		buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g.
3922		16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes).
3923
3924		Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present.
3925
3926- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3927		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3928		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3929		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3930		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3931
3932- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3933		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3934		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3935		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3936		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3937		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3938		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3939		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3940		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3941		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3942		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3943
3944- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3945		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3946		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3947		is enabled.
3948
3949- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3950		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3951		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3952
3953- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3954		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3955		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3956
3957- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3958		Max number of Flash memory banks
3959
3960- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3961		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3962
3963- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3964		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3965
3966- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3967		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3968
3969- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3970		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3971
3972- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3973		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3974
3975- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3976		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3977		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3978
3979- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3980
3981		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3982		without this option such a download has to be
3983		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3984		copy from RAM to flash.
3985
3986		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3987		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3988		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3989		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3990		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3991
3992- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3993		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3994		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3995
3996- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3997		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3998		in the drivers directory
3999
4000- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
4001		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
4002		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
4003		to the MTD layer.
4004
4005- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
4006		Use buffered writes to flash.
4007
4008- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
4009		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
4010		write commands.
4011
4012- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
4013		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
4014		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
4015		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
4016		optionally available.
4017
4018- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
4019		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
4020		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
4021		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
4022
4023- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
4024		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
4025		against the source after the write operation. An error message
4026		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
4027		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
4028		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
4029		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
4030		this option if you really know what you are doing.
4031
4032- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
4033		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
4034		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
4035		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
4036		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
4037		on high Ethernet traffic.
4038		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
4039
4040- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
4041
4042	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
4043	internally to store the environment settings. The default
4044	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
4045	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
4046	lib/hashtable.c for details.
4047
4048- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4049- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4050	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
4051	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
4052	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
4053	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
4054
4055	The format of the list is:
4056		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
4057		access_attribute = [a|r|o|c]
4058		attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute]
4059		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
4060		list = entry[,list]
4061
4062	The type attributes are:
4063		s - String (default)
4064		d - Decimal
4065		x - Hexadecimal
4066		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
4067		i - IP address
4068		m - MAC address
4069
4070	The access attributes are:
4071		a - Any (default)
4072		r - Read-only
4073		o - Write-once
4074		c - Change-default
4075
4076	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4077		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
4078		environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4079
4080	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4081		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
4082		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
4083		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
4084		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
4085		".flags" variable.
4086
4087	If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
4088	regular expression. This allows multiple variables to define the same
4089	flags without explicitly listing them for each variable.
4090
4091- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
4092	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
4093	access flags.
4094
4095- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
4096	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
4097	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
4098	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
4099	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
4100	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
4101	must support it (i.e. must select HAVE_GENERIC_BOARD in arch/Kconfig).
4102	If you find problems enabling this option on your board please report
4103	the problem and send patches!
4104
4105- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
4106	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
4107	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
4108	the value can be calculated on a given board.
4109
4110- CONFIG_USE_STDINT
4111	If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this
4112	option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when
4113	building U-Boot to enable this.
4114
4115The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
4116of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
4117following configurations:
4118
4119- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
4120
4121	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
4122	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
4123
4124- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
4125
4126	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
4127
4128	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
4129	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
4130	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
4131	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
4132	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
4133	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
4134	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
4135	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
4136	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
4137	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
4138	   between U-Boot and the environment.
4139
4140	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4141
4142	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
4143	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
4144	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
4145	   for this sector is given here.
4146
4147	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
4148
4149	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4150
4151	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
4152	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
4153	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
4154
4155	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4156
4157	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
4158
4159
4160	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
4161	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
4162	   the environment.
4163
4164	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4165
4166	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
4167	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
4168	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
4169	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
4170
4171	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
4172	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
4173	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
4174	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
4175	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
4176	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
4177	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
4178	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
4179	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
4180
4181	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
4182	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
4183
4184	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
4185	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
4186	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
4187	   a "saveenv" operation.
4188
4189BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
4190source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
4191accordingly!
4192
4193
4194- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
4195
4196	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
4197	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
4198	environment.
4199
4200	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4201	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4202
4203	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
4204	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
4205	  can just be read and written to, without any special
4206	  provision.
4207
4208BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
4209in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the
4210console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
4211U-Boot will hang.
4212
4213Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
4214environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
4215keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
4216to save the current settings.
4217
4218
4219- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
4220
4221	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
4222	device and a driver for it.
4223
4224	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4225	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4226
4227	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4228	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
4229
4230	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
4231	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
4232	  The default address is zero.
4233
4234	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_BUS:
4235	  If defined, specified the i2c bus of the EEPROM device.
4236
4237	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
4238	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
4239	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
4240	  would require six bits.
4241
4242	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
4243	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
4244	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
4245
4246	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
4247	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
4248	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
4249
4250	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
4251	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
4252	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
4253	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
4254	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
4255	  byte chips.
4256
4257	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
4258	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
4259	  in the chip address.
4260
4261	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
4262	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
4263
4264	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
4265	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
4266	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
4267
4268	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
4269	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
4270	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
4271	  EEPROM. For example:
4272
4273	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
4274
4275	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
4276	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
4277
4278- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
4279
4280	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
4281	want to use for the environment.
4282
4283	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4284	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4285	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4286
4287	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
4288	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
4289	  at the specified address.
4290
4291- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH:
4292
4293	Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you
4294	want to use for the environment.
4295
4296	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4297	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4298
4299	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4300	  environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4301	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4302
4303	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4304
4305	  Define the SPI flash's sector size.
4306
4307	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4308
4309	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4310	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4311	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4312	  during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4313	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4314
4315	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional):
4316	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional):
4317
4318	  Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0.
4319
4320	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional):
4321
4322	  Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz.
4323
4324	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional):
4325
4326	  Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3.
4327
4328- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
4329
4330	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
4331	want to use for the local device's environment.
4332
4333	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4334	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4335
4336	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
4337	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
4338	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
4339	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
4340
4341BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
4342"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
4343environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
4344but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
4345
4346- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
4347
4348	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
4349	for the environment.
4350
4351	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4352	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4353
4354	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4355	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4356	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4357
4358	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4359
4360	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4361	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4362	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4363	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4364	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4365
4366	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
4367
4368	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
4369	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
4370	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
4371	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
4372	  the range to be avoided.
4373
4374	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
4375
4376	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
4377	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
4378	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
4379	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
4380	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
4381
4382- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
4383
4384	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
4385	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
4386	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4387
4388- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
4389
4390	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
4391	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
4392	accesses, which is important on NAND.
4393
4394	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
4395
4396	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
4397
4398	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
4399
4400	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
4401	  environment in.
4402
4403	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
4404
4405	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
4406	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
4407	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
4408
4409	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
4410	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
4411
4412	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
4413	  when storing the env in UBI.
4414
4415- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT:
4416       Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment.
4417
4418       - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE:
4419
4420         Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.
4421
4422       - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
4423
4424         Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
4425         be as following:
4426
4427           "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1)
4428               - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no
4429                        partition table.
4430               - "D:0": device D.
4431               - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition
4432                              table, or the whole device D if has no partition
4433                              table.
4434               - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
4435                           If none, first valid partition in device D. If no
4436                           partition table then means device D.
4437
4438       - FAT_ENV_FILE:
4439
4440         It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the
4441         environment.
4442
4443       - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE:
4444         This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the environment file.
4445
4446- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
4447
4448	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
4449	environment.
4450
4451	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4452
4453	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4454
4455	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4456
4457	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4458	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4459	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4460
4461	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4462	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4463
4464	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4465	  area within the specified MMC device.
4466
4467	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4468	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4469	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4470	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4471	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4472	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4473	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4474
4475	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4476	  MMC sector boundary.
4477
4478	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4479
4480	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4481	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4482	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4483	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4484
4485	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4486	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4487
4488	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4489	  an MMC sector boundary.
4490
4491	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4492
4493	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4494	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4495	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4496
4497- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
4498
4499	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4500	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4501	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4502	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4503	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4504	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4505	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4506
4507Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
4508has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
4509created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
4510until then to read environment variables.
4511
4512The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4513is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4514with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4515necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4516"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4517have any device yet where we could complain.]
4518
4519Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4520the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
4521use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
4522
4523- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
4524		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
4525
4526		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
4527		      also needs to be defined.
4528
4529- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
4530		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
4531
4532- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
4533		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
4534		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
4535		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
4536		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
4537		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
4538
4539- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
4540		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
4541		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
4542		to do this.
4543
4544- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
4545		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
4546		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
4547		present.
4548
4549- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
4550		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
4551		build system checks that the actual size does not
4552		exceed it.
4553
4554Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
4555---------------------------------------------------
4556
4557- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
4558		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
4559
4560- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
4561		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
4562
4563		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4564		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
4565		the IMMR register after a reset.
4566
4567- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4568		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4569		PowerPC SOCs.
4570
4571- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4572		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4573		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4574
4575		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4576		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4577
4578- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4579		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
4580		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
4581		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
4582		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
4583		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
4584		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4585
4586		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4587			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4588
4589- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
4590		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
4591		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
4592		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4593		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4594
4595- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4596		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
4597		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4598		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4599
4600- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4601		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4602		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
4603
4604- Floppy Disk Support:
4605		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
4606
4607		the default drive number (default value 0)
4608
4609		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4610
4611		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4612		(default value 1)
4613
4614		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4615
4616		defines the offset of register from address. It
4617		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4618		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4619
4620		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4621		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4622		default value.
4623
4624		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4625		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4626		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4627		source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent
4628		initializations.
4629
4630- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4631		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4632		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4633		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4634		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4635		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4636		is required.
4637
4638- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4639		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4640		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4641
4642- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4643
4644		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4645		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4646		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4647		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4648		will become available only after programming the
4649		memory controller and running certain initialization
4650		sequences.
4651
4652		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4653		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4654		- MPC824X: data cache
4655		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4656
4657- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4658
4659		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4660		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4661		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4662		data is located at the end of the available space
4663		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4664		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4665		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4666		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4667
4668	Note:
4669		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4670		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4671		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4672		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4673		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

4710
4711- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4712		enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4713		define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2]
4714
4715- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4716		enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);

4721		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4]
4722
4723- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK:
4724		Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful,
4725		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4726		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4727
4728- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4729		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4730		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4731		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.
4732		cpm_8260.h.
4733
4734- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4735  CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4742		Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
4743
4744- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4745		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4746		required.
4747
4748- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4749		Only scan through and get the devices on the buses.
4750		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4751		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4752		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4753		by coreboot or similar.
4754
4755- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4756		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4757

4781		a 16 bit bus.
4782		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
4783		Example of drivers that use it:
4784		- drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c
4785		- drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c
4786
4787- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG

4797
4798- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM

4801		to something your driver can deal with.
4802
4803- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4804		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4805		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing

4808
4809- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
4810		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4811
4812- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_SYNC_REFRESH
4813		Enable sync of refresh for multiple controllers.
4814
4815- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_BIST
4816		Enable built-in memory test for Freescale DDR controllers.
4817
4818- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4819		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4820		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4821
4822- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4823		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4824
4825- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4826		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4827		to the given FEC; i. e.
4828			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4829		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4830
4831		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4832
4833- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4834		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4835		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4836
4837- CONFIG_RMII
4838		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4839		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4840		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4841
4842- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4843		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4844		The syntax is:
4845
4846		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4847
4848		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4849		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4850		area should have.
4851
4852- CONFIG_LOOPW
4853		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4854		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4855
4856- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4857		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4858		"md/mw" commands.
4859		Examples:
4860
4861		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4862		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4863
4864		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4865		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4866
4867		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4868		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4869
4870- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4871		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4872		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4873		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4874		relocate itself into RAM.
4875
4876		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4877		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4878		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4879		these initializations itself.
4880
4881- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4882		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4883		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4884		compiling a NAND SPL.
4885
4886- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4887		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4888		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4889		It is loaded by the SPL.
4890
4891- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4892		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4893		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4894		previous 4k of the .text section.
4895
4896- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4897		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4898		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4899		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4900		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4901		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4902		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4903		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4904
4905- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4906  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4907		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4908		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4909		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4910
4911- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4912		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4913		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4914
4915- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4916		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4917
4918		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4919
4920- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4921		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4922
4923- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
4924		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
4925		driver that uses this:
4926		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
4927
4928Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4929-----------------------------------
4930
4931The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4932loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4933This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4934are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4935within that device.
4936
4937- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4938	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
4939	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4940	is also specified.
4941
4942- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
4943	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
4944	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4945	is also specified.
4946
4947- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4948	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4949	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4950	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4951	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4952
4953- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4954	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4955	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4956	virtual address in NOR flash.
4957
4958- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4959	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4960	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4961
4962- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4963	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4964	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4965
4966- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4967	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4968	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4969
4970- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4971	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4972	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4973	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4974	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4975	master's memory space.
4976
4977Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
4978---------------------------------------------------------
4979The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
4980"firmware".
4981This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4982are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4983within that device.
4984
4985- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
4986	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
4987
4988- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR
4989	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4990	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro
4991	is also specified.
4992
4993- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH
4994	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4995	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4996	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4997	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4998
4999- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR
5000	Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
5001	normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
5002	virtual address in NOR flash.
5003
5004Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support:
5005-------------------------------------------
5006The Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support supports the loading of
5007"Debug Server firmware" and triggering SP boot-rom.
5008This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting.
5009
5010- CONFIG_FSL_DEBUG_SERVER
5011	Enable the Debug Server for Layerscape SoCs.
5012
5013- CONFIG_SYS_DEBUG_SERVER_DRAM_BLOCK_MIN_SIZE
5014	Define minimum DDR size required for debug server image
5015
5016- CONFIG_SYS_MC_RSV_MEM_ALIGN
5017	Define alignment of reserved memory MC requires
5018
5019Reproducible builds
5020-------------------
5021
5022In order to achieve reproducible builds, timestamps used in the U-Boot build
5023process have to be set to a fixed value.
5024
5025This is done using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable.
5026SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is to be set on the build host's shell, not as a configuration
5027option for U-Boot or an environment variable in U-Boot.
5028
5029SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH should be set to a number of seconds since the epoch, in UTC.
5030
5031Building the Software:
5032======================
5033
5034Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
5035and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
5036all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
5037(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
5038recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
5039which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
5040
5041If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
5042have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
5043you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
5044Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
5045necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
5046
5047	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
5048	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
5049
5050Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
5051      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
5052      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
5053      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
5054
5055       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
5056
5057      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
5058      be executed on computers running Windows.
5059
5060U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
5061sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
5062is done by typing:
5063
5064	make NAME_defconfig
5065
5066where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
5067rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
5068
5069Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
5070      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
5071      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
5072      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
5073      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
5074
5075      make TQM823L_defconfig
5076	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
5077
5078      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
5079	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
5080
5081      etc.
5082
5083
5084Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
5085images ready for download to / installation on your system:
5086
5087- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
5088- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
5089- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
5090
5091By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
5092in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
5093this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
5094
50951. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
5096
5097	make O=/tmp/build distclean
5098	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
5099	make O=/tmp/build all
5100
51012. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location:
5102
5103	export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build
5104	make distclean
5105	make NAME_defconfig
5106	make all
5107
5108Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment
5109variable.
5110
5111
5112Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
5113for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
5114native "make".
5115
5116
5117If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
5118to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
5119steps:
5120
51211.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
5122    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
5123    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
51242.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
5125    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
5126    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
51273.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
5128    your board
51293.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
5130    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
51314.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
51325.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
5133    to be installed on your target system.
51346.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
5135    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
5136
5137
5138Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
5139==============================================================
5140
5141If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
5142or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
5143provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
5144the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
5145official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
5146
5147But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
5148cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
5149the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
5150just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
5151for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
5152select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
5153environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
5154you can type
5155
5156	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5157
5158or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
5159
5160	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
5161
5162When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
5163U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
5164setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
5165built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
5166<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
5167location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
5168variable. For example:
5169
5170	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
5171	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
5172	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5173
5174With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
5175log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
5176during the whole build process.

5233
5234TODO.
5235
5236For now: just type "help <command>".
5237
5238
5239Environment Variables:
5240======================
5241
5242U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
5243can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
5244
5245Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
5246"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
5247without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
5248environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
5249working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
5250environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
5251
5252Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
5253
5254List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
5255
5256  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
5257
5258  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
5259
5260  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
5261
5262  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
5263
5264  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
5265
5266  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5267		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5268		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
5269		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
5270		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
5271		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
5272		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
5273		  bootm_mapsize.
5274
5275  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
5276		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
5277		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
5278		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
5279		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
5280		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
5281		  used otherwise.
5282
5283  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5284		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5285		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
5286		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
5287		  environment variable.
5288
5289  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
5290		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
5291		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
5292
5293  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
5294		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
5295		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
5296		  load any image using TFTP
5297
5298  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
5299		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
5300		  be automatically started (by internally calling
5301		  "bootm")
5302
5303		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
5304		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
5305		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
5306		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
5307		  data.
5308
5309  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
5310		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
5311		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
5312		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
5313		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
5314		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
5315		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
5316		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
5317		  access it during the boot procedure.
5318
5319		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
5320		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
5321		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
5322		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
5323		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
5324		  must be accessible by the kernel.
5325
5326  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
5327		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
5328		  defined.
5329
5330  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
5331		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
5332		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
5333		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
5334		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
5335
5336  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
5337		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
5338		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
5339		  is usually what you want since it allows for
5340		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
5341		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
5342		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
5343		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
5344		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
5345		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
5346		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
5347
5348		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
5349		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
5350		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
5351		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
5352		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
5353		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
5354
5355		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
5356
5357		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
5358		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
5359		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
5360		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
5361		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
5362		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
5363		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
5364
5365  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5366
5367  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
5368		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
5369
5370  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
5371
5372  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5373
5374  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
5375
5376  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
5377
5378  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
5379
5380  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
5381
5382  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
5383		  For example you can do the following
5384
5385		  => setenv ethact FEC
5386		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
5387		  => setenv ethact SCC
5388		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
5389
5390  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
5391		  available network interfaces.
5392		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
5393
5394  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
5395		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
5396		  When set to "once" the network operation will
5397		  fail when all the available network interfaces
5398		  are tried once without success.
5399		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
5400		  themselves.
5401
5402  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
5403
5404  silent_linux  - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by
5405		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
5406		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
5407		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
5408		  is silent.
5409
5410  tftpsrcp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
5411		  UDP source port.
5412
5413  tftpdstp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
5414		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
5415
5416  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
5417		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
5418
5419  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
5420		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
5421		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
5422		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
5423		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
5424		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
5425		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
5426
5427  tftptimeoutcountmax	- maximum count of TFTP timeouts (no
5428		  unit, minimum value = 0). Defines how many timeouts
5429		  can happen during a single file transfer before that
5430		  transfer is aborted. The default is 10, and 0 means
5431		  'no timeouts allowed'. Increasing this value may help
5432		  downloads succeed with high packet loss rates, or with
5433		  unreliable TFTP servers or client hardware.
5434
5435  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
5436		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
5437		  VLAN tagged frames.
5438
5439The following image location variables contain the location of images
5440used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
5441not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
5442variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
5443server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
5444loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
5445flash or offset in NAND flash.
5446
5447*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
5448boards currently use other variables for these purposes, and some
5449boards use these variables for other purposes.
5450
5451Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
5452-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
5453u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
5454Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
5455device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
5456ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
5457
5458The following environment variables may be used and automatically
5459updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
5460depending the information provided by your boot server:
5461
5462  bootfile	- see above
5463  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
5464  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5465  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5466  hostname	- Target hostname
5467  ipaddr	- see above
5468  netmask	- Subnet Mask
5469  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5470  serverip	- see above
5471
5472
5473There are two special Environment Variables:
5474
5475  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
5476		  as type string and/or serial number
5477  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
5478
5479These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5480the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5481once they have been set once.
5482
5483
5484Further special Environment Variables:
5485
5486  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5487		  with the "version" command. This variable is
5488		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
5489
5490
5491Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
5492only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
5493
5494
5495Callback functions for environment variables:
5496---------------------------------------------
5497
5498For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5499when their values are changed.  This functionality allows functions to
5500be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
5501deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5502effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5503
5504The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5505U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5506
5507These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
5508static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5509in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5510associations.  The list must be in the following format:
5511
5512	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5513	list = entry[,list]
5514
5515If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5516Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5517
5518Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5519with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
5520override any association in the static list. You can define
5521CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5522".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5523
5524If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
5525regular expression. This allows multiple variables to be connected to
5526the same callback without explicitly listing them all out.
5527
5528
5529Command Line Parsing:
5530=====================
5531
5532There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5533the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5534
5535Old, simple command line parser:
5536--------------------------------
5537
5538- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5539- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5540- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5541- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5542  for example:
5543	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5544- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5545	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5546
5547Hush shell:
5548-----------
5549
5550- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5551  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5552  until...do...done, ...
5553- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5554  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5555  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5556  command
5557
5558General rules:
5559--------------
5560
5561(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5562    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5563    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5564    executed anyway.
5565
5566(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5567    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5568    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5569    variables are not executed.
5570
5571Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5572=======================================
5573
5574Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5575such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5576"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5577
5578Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5579MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5580"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5581
5582If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5583in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5584ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5585variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5586
5587o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5588  environment, the SROM's address is used.
5589
5590o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5591  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5592  used.
5593
5594o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5595  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5596
5597o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5598  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5599  warning is printed.
5600
5601o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5602  is raised. If CONFIG_NET_RANDOM_ETHADDR is defined, then in this case
5603  a random, locally-assigned MAC is used.
5604
5605If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5606will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
5607may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5608The naming convention is as follows:
5609"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5610
5611Image Formats:
5612==============
5613
5614U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5615images in two formats:
5616
5617New uImage format (FIT)
5618-----------------------
5619
5620Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5621to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5622components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5623SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5624
5625
5626Old uImage format
5627-----------------
5628
5629Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5630preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5631details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5632
5633* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5634  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5635  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5636  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5637  INTEGRITY).
5638* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5639  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5640  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5641* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5642* Load Address
5643* Entry Point
5644* Image Name
5645* Image Timestamp
5646
5647The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5648and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5649CRC32 checksums.
5650
5651
5652Linux Support:
5653==============
5654
5655Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5656easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5657U-Boot.
5658
5659U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5660special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5661"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5662instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5663serves several purposes:
5664
5665- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5666  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5667  Flash memory footprint)
5668
5669- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5670  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5671
5672- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5673  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5674  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5675  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5676  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5677  software is easier now.
5678
5679
5680Linux HOWTO:
5681============
5682
5683Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5684---------------------------------------
5685
5686U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5687configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5688(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5689Linux :-).
5690
5691But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5692
5693Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5694include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5695Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5696and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5697as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5698
5699Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
5700If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
5701is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
5702doc/driver-model.
5703
5704
5705Configuring the Linux kernel:
5706-----------------------------
5707
5708No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5709device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5710
5711
5712Building a Linux Image:
5713-----------------------
5714
5715With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5716not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5717"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5718U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5719which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5720100% compatible format.
5721
5722Example:
5723
5724	make TQM850L_defconfig
5725	make oldconfig
5726	make dep
5727	make uImage
5728
5729The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5730encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5731CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5732
5733* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5734
5735* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5736
5737	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5738				 -R .note -R .comment \
5739				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5740
5741* compress the binary image:
5742
5743	gzip -9 linux.bin
5744
5745* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5746
5747	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5748		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5749		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5750
5751
5752The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5753with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5754combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5755byte header containing information about target architecture,
5756operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5757stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5758
5759"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5760print the header information, or to build new images.
5761
5762In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5763contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5764checksum verification:
5765
5766	tools/mkimage -l image
5767	  -l ==> list image header information
5768
5769The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5770from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5771
5772	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5773		      -n name -d data_file image
5774	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5775	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5776	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5777	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5778	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5779	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5780	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5781	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5782
5783Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5784address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5785kernel version:
5786
5787- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5788- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5789
5790So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5791
5792	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5793	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5794	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5795	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5796	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5797	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5798	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5799	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5800	Load Address: 0x00000000
5801	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5802
5803To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5804
5805	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5806	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5807	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5808	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5809	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5810	Load Address: 0x00000000
5811	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5812
5813NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5814speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5815needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5816need to be uncompressed:
5817
5818	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5819	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5820	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5821	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5822	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5823	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5824	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5825	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5826	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5827	Load Address: 0x00000000
5828	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5829
5830
5831Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5832when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5833
5834	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5835	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5836	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5837	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5838	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5839	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5840	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5841	Load Address: 0x00000000
5842	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5843
5844The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5845option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5846option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5847from the image:

5854
5855Installing a Linux Image:
5856-------------------------
5857
5858To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5859you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5860
5861	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5862
5863The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5864image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5865address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5866specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5867command.
5868
5869Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5870TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5871
5872	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5873
5874	.......... done
5875	Erased 8 sectors
5876

5883	[file transfer complete]
5884	[connected]
5885	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5886
5887
5888You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5889this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5890corruption happened:
5891
5892	=> imi 40100000

5903Boot Linux:
5904-----------
5905
5906The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5907memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5908of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5909parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5910"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5911
5912
5913	=> printenv bootargs
5914	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5915
5916	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

6035More About U-Boot Image Types:
6036------------------------------
6037
6038U-Boot supports the following image types:
6039
6040   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
6041	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
6042	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
6043	the Standalone Program.
6044   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
6045	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
6046	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
6047	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
6048	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
6049   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
6050	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
6051	being started.
6052   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
6053	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
6054	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
6055	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
6056	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
6057	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
6058
6059	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
6060	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
6061	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
6062	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
6063	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
6064	a multiple of 4 bytes).
6065
6066   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
6067	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
6068	flash memory.
6069
6070   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
6071	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
6072	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
6073	as command interpreter.
6074
6075Booting the Linux zImage:
6076-------------------------
6077
6078On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
6079using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
6080as the syntax of "bootm" command.
6081
6082Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
6083kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
6084address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
6085format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
6086
6087
6088Standalone HOWTO:
6089=================
6090
6091One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
6092run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
6093U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
6094
6095Two simple examples are included with the sources:
6096
6097"Hello World" Demo:
6098-------------------
6099
6100'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
6101application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
6102It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
6103like that:
6104
6105	=> loads
6106	## Ready for S-Record download ...
6107	~>examples/hello_world.srec
6108	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
6109	[file transfer complete]
6110	[connected]
6111	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
6112
6113	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
6114	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
6115	Hello World
6116	argc = 7
6117	argv[0] = "40004"
6118	argv[1] = "Hello"
6119	argv[2] = "World!"
6120	argv[3] = "This"
6121	argv[4] = "is"
6122	argv[5] = "a"
6123	argv[6] = "test."
6124	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
6125	Hit any key to exit ...
6126
6127	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
6128
6129Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
6130handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
6131Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
6132The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
6133character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
6134controlled by the following keys:
6135
6136	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
6137	b - enable interrupts and start timer
6138	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
6139	q - quit application
6140
6141	=> loads
6142	## Ready for S-Record download ...

6147	## Start Addr = 0x00040004

6176Minicom warning:
6177================
6178
6179Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
6180"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
6181consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
6182Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
6183especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
6184use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
6185http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
6186for help with kermit.
6187
6188
6189Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
6190configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
6191
6192	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
6193	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N

6196
6197NetBSD Notes:
6198=============
6199
6200Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
6201(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
6202
6203Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
6204NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
6205need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
6206Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
6207attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
6208missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
6209
6210	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
6211	# mkdir powerpc
6212	# ln -s powerpc machine
6213	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
6214	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
6215
6216Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
6217and U-Boot include files.
6218
6219Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
6220stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
6221proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
6222tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
6223meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
6224
6225
6226Implementation Internals:
6227=========================
6228
6229The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
6230implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
6231inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
6232hardware.
6233
6234
6235Initial Stack, Global Data:
6236---------------------------
6237
6238The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
6239starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
6240system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
6241This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
6242is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
6243at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
6244options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
6245models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
6246MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
6247locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
6248
6249	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
6250	U-Boot mailing list:
6251
6252	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
6253	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
6254	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
6255	...
6256
6257	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
6258	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
6259	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
6260	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
6261	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
6262	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
6263	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
6264	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
6265
6266	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
6267	is another option for the system designer to use as an
6268	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
6269	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
6270	board designers haven't used it for something that would
6271	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
6272	used.
6273
6274	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
6275	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
6276	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
6277	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
6278	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
6279	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
6280	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
6281	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
6282	you get the config right.

6287It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
6288code for the initialization procedures:
6289
6290* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
6291  to write it.
6292
6293* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized
6294  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
6295  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
6296
6297* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
6298  that.
6299
6300Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
6301normal global data to share information between the code. But it
6302turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
6303simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
6304functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
6305functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
6306the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
6307place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
6308reserve for this purpose.
6309
6310When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
6311relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
6312GCC's implementation.
6313
6314For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
6315	R1:	stack pointer
6316	R2:	reserved for system use
6317	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
6318	R5-R10: parameter passing
6319	R13:	small data area pointer
6320	R30:	GOT pointer
6321	R31:	frame pointer
6322
6323	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
6324	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
6325	going back and forth between asm and C)
6326
6327    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
6328
6329    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
6330    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
6331    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
6332    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
6333    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
6334    624 text + 127 data).
6335
6336On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
6337	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
6338
6339    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
6340
6341On ARM, the following registers are used:
6342
6343	R0:	function argument word/integer result
6344	R1-R3:	function argument word
6345	R9:	platform specific
6346	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
6347	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
6348	R12:	temporary workspace
6349	R13:	stack pointer
6350	R14:	link register
6351	R15:	program counter
6352
6353    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
6354
6355    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
6356
6357On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
6358	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
6359
6360    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
6361
6362    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
6363    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
6364
6365On NDS32, the following registers are used:
6366
6367	R0-R1:	argument/return
6368	R2-R5:	argument
6369	R15:	temporary register for assembler
6370	R16:	trampoline register
6371	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
6372	R29:	global pointer (GP)
6373	R30:	link register (LP)
6374	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
6375	PC:	program counter (PC)
6376
6377    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
6378
6379NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
6380or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
6381
6382Memory Management:
6383------------------
6384
6385U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
6386MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
6387
6388The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
6389controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
6390memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
6391physical memory banks.
6392
6393U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
6394TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
6395booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
6396to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
6397memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
6398configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
6399Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
6400
6401Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
6402of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
6403
6404So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
6405this:
6406
6407	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
6408	      :
6409	0x0000 1FFF
6410	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
6411	      :
6412	      :
6413
6414	      :
6415	      :
6416	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
6417	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
6418	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
6419	      :
6420	0x00FD FFFF
6421	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
6422	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
6423	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
6424	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
6425
6426
6427System Initialization:
6428----------------------
6429
6430In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
6431(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
6432configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory.
6433To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
6434To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
6435initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
6436which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
6437part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
6438the caches and the SIU.
6439
6440Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
6441preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
6442(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
6443on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
6444programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
6445simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
6446banks.
6447
6448When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
6449different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
6450bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
64510x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
6452contiguous memory starting from 0.
6453
6454Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
6455and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
6456Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
6457pages, and the final stack is set up.
6458
6459Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
6460until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
6461running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
6462new address in RAM.

6539Coding Standards:
6540-----------------
6541
6542All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6543coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6544"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6545
6546Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6547MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6548reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6549sources.
6550
6551Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6552Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6553in your code.
6554
6555Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6556- remove any trailing white space
6557- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6558- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6559- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6560- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6561
6562Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6563with a request to reformat the changes.
6564
6565
6566Submitting Patches:
6567-------------------
6568
6569Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6570establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6571may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6572
6573Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6574
6575Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6576see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6577
6578When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6579it:
6580
6581* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6582  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6583  patch actually fixes something.
6584
6585* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6586  implementation.
6587
6588* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6589
6590* For major contributions, add a MAINTAINERS file with your
6591  information and associated file and directory references.
6592
6593* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6594  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6595
6596* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6597  document these in the README file.
6598
6599* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6600  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6601  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6602  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6603  with some other mail clients.
6604
6605  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6606  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6607  GNU diff.
6608
6609  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6610  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6611  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6612  affected files).
6613
6614  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6615  and compressed attachments must not be used.
6616
6617* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6618  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6619
6620* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6621  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6622
6623
6624Notes:
6625
6626* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6627  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6628  for any of the boards.
6629
6630* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6631  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6632  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6633
6634* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6635  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6636  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6637  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6638  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6639  modification.
6640
6641* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6642  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6643  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6644  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
