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
484		SoCs.

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 enabled for SoCs with
515		Freescale DDR2 or DDR3 controllers, depending on the board

532
533		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_IFC_LE
534		Defines the IFC controller register space as Little Endian
535
536		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PBL_PBI
537		It enables addition of RCW (Power on reset configuration) in built image.
538		Please refer doc/README.pblimage for more details
539

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.

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			CONFIG_HIDE_LOGO_VERSION
844						do not display bootloader
845						version string
846
847		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
848		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
849		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
850
851		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
852		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
853		environment 'console=serial'.
854
855		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
856		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
857		the "silent" environment variable. See
858		doc/README.silent for more information.
859
860		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
861			is 0x00.
862		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
863			is 0xa0.
864
865- Console Baudrate:
866		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
867		Select one of the baudrates listed in
868		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
869		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
870
871- Console Rx buffer length
872		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
873		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
874		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
875		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
876		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
877		the SMC.
878
879- Pre-Console Buffer:
880		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
881		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
882		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
883		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
884		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
885		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
886		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
887		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
888		earlier bytes are discarded.
889
890		Note that when printing the buffer a copy is made on the
891		stack so CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ must fit on the stack.
892
893		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
894		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
895
896- Autoboot Command:
897		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
898		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
899		define a command string that is automatically executed
900		when no character is read on the console interface
901		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
902
903		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
904		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
905		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
906		environment value "bootargs".
907
908		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
909		The value of these goes into the environment as
910		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
911		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
912		RAM and NFS.
913
914- Bootcount:
915		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
916		Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
917		cycle, see:
918		http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
919
920		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
921		If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
922		"bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
923		saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
924		"upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
925		0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
926		1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
927		So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
928		and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
929
930- Pre-Boot Commands:
931		CONFIG_PREBOOT
932
933		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
934		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
935		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
936		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
937		entering interactive mode.
938
939		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
940		automatically generated or modified. For an example
941		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
942		modified when the user holds down a certain
943		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
944		booting the systems
945
946- Serial Download Echo Mode:
947		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
948		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
949		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
950		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
951		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
952		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
953		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
954
955- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
956		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
957		Select one of the baudrates listed in
958		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
959
960- Monitor Functions:
961		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
962		from the build by using the #include files
963		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
964		commands, or adding #define's for wanted commands.
965
966		The default command configuration includes all commands
967		except those marked below with a "*".

1062		CONFIG_CMD_SHA1SUM	* print sha1 memory digest
1063					  (requires CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY)
1064		CONFIG_CMD_SOFTSWITCH	* Soft switch setting command for BF60x
1065		CONFIG_CMD_SOURCE	  "source" command Support

1076
1077		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
1078		support you can write:
1079
1080		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
1081		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1082
1083	Other Commands:
1084		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1085
1086	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1087		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1088		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1089		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1090		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1091		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1092		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1093		initial stack and some data.
1094
1095
1096		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1097
1098- Removal of commands
1099		If no commands are needed to boot, you can disable
1100		CONFIG_CMDLINE to remove them. In this case, the command line
1101		will not be available, and when U-Boot wants to execute the
1102		boot command (on start-up) it will call board_run_command()
1103		instead. This can reduce image size significantly for very
1104		simple boot procedures.
1105
1106- Regular expression support:
1107		CONFIG_REGEX
1108		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1109		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1110		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1111		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1112
1113- Device tree:
1114		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1115		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1116		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1117		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1118		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1119		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1120
1121		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1122		be done using one of the two options below:
1123
1124		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1125		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1126		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1127		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1128		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1129		the global data structure as gd->blob.
1130
1131		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1132		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1133		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1134		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1135
1136			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1137
1138		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1139		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1140		still use the individual files if you need something more
1141		exotic.
1142
1143- Watchdog:
1144		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1145		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1146		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1147		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1148		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1149		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
1150		available, then no further board specific code should
1151		be needed to use it.
1152
1153		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1154		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1155		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1156		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1157
1158		CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT
1159		specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds.
1160
1161- U-Boot Version:
1162		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1163		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1164		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1165		version as printed by the "version" command.
1166		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1167		next reset.
1168
1169- Real-Time Clock:
1170
1171		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1172		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1173		following options:
1174
1175		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1176		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1177		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1178		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1179		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1180		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1181		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1182		CONFIG_RTC_DS1339	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
1183		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1184		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1185		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1186		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1187		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
1188					  RV3029 RTC.
1189
1190		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1191		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1192
1193- GPIO Support:
1194		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1195
1196		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1197		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1198		pins supported by a particular chip.
1199
1200		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1201		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1202
1203- I/O tracing:
1204		When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
1205		accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
1206		to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
1207		useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
1208		the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
1209		change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
1210		add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
1211		to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
1212
1213		Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
1214		Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
1215		still continue to operate.
1216
1217			iotrace is enabled
1218			Start:  10000000	(buffer start address)
1219			Size:   00010000	(buffer size)
1220			Offset: 00000120	(current buffer offset)
1221			Output: 10000120	(start + offset)
1222			Count:  00000018	(number of trace records)
1223			CRC32:  9526fb66	(CRC32 of all trace records)
1224
1225- Timestamp Support:
1226
1227		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1228		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
1229		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1230		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1231
1232- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1233		Zero or more of the following:
1234		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
1235		CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION   MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1236				       Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1237		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1238		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1239				       bootloader.  Note 2TB partition limit; see
1240				       disk/part_efi.c
1241		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
1242
1243		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1244		CONFIG_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1245		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1246
1247- IDE Reset method:
1248		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1249		board configurations files but used nowhere!
1250
1251		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1252		be performed by calling the function
1253			ide_set_reset(int reset)
1254		which has to be defined in a board specific file
1255
1256- ATAPI Support:
1257		CONFIG_ATAPI
1258
1259		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1260
1261- LBA48 Support
1262		CONFIG_LBA48
1263
1264		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1265		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1266		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1267		support disks up to 2.1TB.
1268
1269		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1270			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1271			Default is 32bit.
1272
1273- SCSI Support:
1274		At the moment only there is only support for the
1275		SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
1276		CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
1277
1278		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1279		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1280		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1281		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1282		devices.
1283		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)

1296
1297		CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC
1298		Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for

1368
1369			CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA
1370			Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY.
1371			Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY.

1373			wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or
1374			useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit
1375			control registers. This behavior won't affect the
1376			correctnessof 10/100 link speed update.
1377

1463		storage devices.
1464		Note:
1465		Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
1466		(TEAC FD-05PUB).
1467		MPC5200 USB requires additional defines:
1468			CONFIG_USB_CLOCK
1469				for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb
1470			CONFIG_PSC3_USB

1486
1487- USB Device:
1488		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1489		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1490		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1491		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1492		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1493		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1494		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1495		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1496		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1497		a Linux host by
1498		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1499		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1500		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1501		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1502
1503			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1504			Define this to build a UDC device
1505
1506			CONFIG_USB_TTY
1507			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1508			talk to the UDC device
1509
1510			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1511			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1512			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1513			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1514			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1515			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1516			speed.
1517
1518			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1519			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1520			be set to usbtty.
1521
1522			mpc8xx:
1523				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH

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

2271		    bus.
2272		  - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define

2384
2385		additional defines:
2386
2387		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2388		Hold the number of i2c buses you want to use. If you
2389		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2390		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2391		omit this define.
2392
2393		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2394		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2395		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2396		omit this define.
2397
2398		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2399		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2400		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2401		define.
2402
2403		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2404		hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if
2405		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2406		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2407		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2408
2409		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2410					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2411					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2412					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2413					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2414					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2415					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \

2417					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2418					}
2419
2420		which defines

2431		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2432
2433- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2434
2435		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2436		provides the following compelling advantages:
2437
2438		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2439		- approved multibus support
2440		- better i2c mux support
2441
2442		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2443
2444		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2445		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2446		for the selected CPU.
2447
2448		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2449		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2450		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2451		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2452		command line interface.
2453
2454		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2455
2456		There are several other quantities that must also be
2457		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2458
2459		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2460		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2461		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2462		the CPU's i2c node address).
2463
2464		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2465		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2466		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2467		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2468		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2469
2470		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2471
2472		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2473		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2474		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2475		commands until the slave device responds.
2476
2477		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2478
2479		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2480		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2481		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2482
2483		I2C_INIT
2484
2485		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2486		controller or configure ports.
2487
2488		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2489
2490		I2C_PORT
2491
2492		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2493		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2494		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2495
2496		I2C_ACTIVE
2497
2498		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2499		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2500		define can be null.
2501
2502		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2503
2504		I2C_TRISTATE
2505
2506		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2507		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2508		define can be null.
2509
2510		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2511
2512		I2C_READ
2513
2514		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2515		false if it is low.
2516
2517		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2518
2519		I2C_SDA(bit)
2520
2521		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2522		is false, it clears it (low).
2523
2524		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2525			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2526			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2527
2528		I2C_SCL(bit)
2529
2530		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2531		is false, it clears it (low).
2532
2533		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2534			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2535			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2536
2537		I2C_DELAY
2538
2539		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2540		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2541		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2542		like:
2543
2544		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2545
2546		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2547
2548		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2549		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2550		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2551		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2552
2553		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2554		the generic GPIO functions.
2555
2556		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2557
2558		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2559		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2560		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2561		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2562		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2563		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2564		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2565		is run early in the boot sequence.
2566
2567		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2568
2569		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2570		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2571		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2572		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2573		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2574		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2575		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2576		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2577
2578		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2579
2580		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2581		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2582		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2583
2584		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2585
2586		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2587		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2588		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2589		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2590
2591		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2592
2593		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2594		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2595		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2596		a 1D array of device addresses
2597
2598		e.g.
2599			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2600			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2601
2602		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2603
2604			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2605			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2606
2607		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2608
2609		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2610
2611		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2612		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2613
2614		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2615
2616		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2617		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2618
2619		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2620
2621		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2622		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2623
2624		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2625
2626		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2627		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2628		specified DTT device.
2629
2630		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2631
2632		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2633		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2634		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2635		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2636		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2637		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2638		the other.
2639
2640- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2641
2642		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2643		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2644		D/As on the SACSng board)
2645
2646		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2647
2648		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2649		only SH7757 is supported.
2650
2651		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2652
2653		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2654		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2655		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2656		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2657		defined, the board configuration must define several
2658		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2659		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2660
2661		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2662
2663		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2664		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2665		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2666		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2667		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2668
2669		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2670
2671		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2672		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2673
2674		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT
2675		Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed.
2676		default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100)     /* 10 ms */
2677
2678- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2679
2680		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2681
2682		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2683
2684		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2685		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2686
2687		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2688
2689		Enables support for FPGA family.
2690		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2691
2692		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2693
2694		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2695
2696		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK
2697
2698		Enable support for fpga loadmk command
2699
2700		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP
2701
2702		Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream
2703
2704		CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP
2705
2706		Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream
2707		(Xilinx only)
2708
2709		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2710
2711		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2712
2713		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2714
2715		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2716		status by the configuration function. This option
2717		will require a board or device specific function to
2718		be written.
2719
2720		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2721
2722		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2723		configuration driver.
2724
2725		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2726		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2727
2728		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2729
2730		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2731		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2732		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2733		indicated a CRC error).
2734
2735		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2736
2737		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to de-assert
2738		after PROB_B has been de-asserted during a Virtex II
2739		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2740		ms.
2741
2742		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2743
2744		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to de-assert during
2745		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2746
2747		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2748
2749		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2750		200 ms.
2751
2752- Configuration Management:
2753		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET
2754
2755		Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary
2756		with a special header) as build targets. By defining
2757		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this
2758		special image will be automatically built upon calling
2759		make / buildman.
2760
2761		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2762
2763		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2764		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2765
2766- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2767
2768		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2769		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2770		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2771		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2772		protects these variables from casual modification by
2773		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2774		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2775		change this behaviour:
2776
2777		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2778		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2779		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2780		these parameters.
2781
2782		Alternatively, if you define _both_ an ethaddr in the
2783		default env _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2784		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2785		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2786		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2787		read-only.]
2788
2789		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2790		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2791		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2792		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2793
2794- Protected RAM:
2795		CONFIG_PRAM
2796
2797		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2798		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2799		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2800		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2801		this default value by defining an environment
2802		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2803		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2804		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2805		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2806		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2807		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2808		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2809
2810			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2811			saveenv
2812
2813		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2814		either, which results in a memory region that will
2815		not be affected by reboots.
2816
2817		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2818		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2819		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2820		following board configurations are known to be
2821		"pRAM-clean":
2822
2823			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2824			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2825			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2826
2827- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2828		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2829		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2830		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2831		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2832		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2833		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2834
2835- Error Recovery:
2836		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2837
2838		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2839		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2840		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2841		system where you want the system to reboot
2842		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2843		useful during development since you can try to debug
2844		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2845
2846		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2847
2848		This variable defines the number of retries for
2849		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2850		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2851		default value of 5 is used.
2852
2853		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2854
2855		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2856
2857		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2858
2859		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2860		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2861		try longer timeout such as
2862		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2863
2864- Command Interpreter:
2865		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2866
2867		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2868
2869		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2870
2871		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2872		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2873		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2874
2875	Note:
2876
2877		In the current implementation, the local variables
2878		space and global environment variables space are
2879		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2880		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2881		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2882		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2883		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2884
2885		Global environment variables are those you use
2886		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2887		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2888		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2889
2890		To store commands and special characters in a
2891		variable, please use double quotation marks
2892		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2893		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2894		symbols.
2895
2896- Command Line Editing and History:
2897		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2898
2899		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2900		command line input operations
2901
2902- Command Line PS1/PS2 support:
2903		CONFIG_CMDLINE_PS_SUPPORT
2904
2905		Enable support for changing the command prompt string
2906		at run-time. Only static string is supported so far.
2907		The string is obtained from environment variables PS1
2908		and PS2.
2909
2910- Default Environment:
2911		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2912
2913		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2914		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2915		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2916
2917		For example, place something like this in your
2918		board's config file:
2919
2920		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2921			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2922			"myvar2=value2\0"
2923
2924		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2925		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2926		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2927		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2928		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2929		You better know what you are doing here.
2930
2931		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2932		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2933		the environment like the "source" command or the
2934		boot command first.
2935
2936		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2937
2938		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2939		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2940		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2941
2942		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2943
2944		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2945		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2946		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2947		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2948		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2949
2950		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2951
2952		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2953		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2954		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2955
2956		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2957
2958		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2959		initialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2960		that so that the environment is not available until
2961		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2962		this is instead controlled by the value of
2963		/config/load-environment.
2964
2965- Parallel Flash support:
2966		CONFIG_SYS_NO_FLASH
2967
2968		Traditionally U-Boot was run on systems with parallel NOR
2969		flash. This option is used to disable support for parallel NOR
2970		flash. This option should be defined if the board does not have
2971		parallel flash.
2972
2973		If this option is not defined one of the generic flash drivers
2974		(e.g.  CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER or CONFIG_ST_SMI) must be
2975		selected or the board must provide an implementation of the
2976		flash API (see include/flash.h).
2977
2978- DataFlash Support:
2979		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2980
2981		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2982		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2983		commands cp, md...
2984
2985- Serial Flash support
2986		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2987
2988		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2989		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2990
2991		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2992		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2993		commands.
2994
2995		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2996		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2997		flash is present on the system.
2998
2999		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
3000		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
3001		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
3002		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
3003
3004		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
3005
3006		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
3007		test ('sf test').
3008
3009		CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH		Dual flash memories
3010
3011		Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
3012		memories can be connected with a given cs line.
3013		Currently Xilinx Zynq qspi supports these type of connections.
3014
3015- SystemACE Support:
3016		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
3017
3018		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
3019		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
3020		of the chip must also be defined in the
3021		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
3022
3023		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
3024		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
3025
3026		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
3027		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
3028
3029- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
3030		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
3031
3032		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
3033		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
3034		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
3035		number generator is used.
3036
3037		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
3038		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
3039		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
3040
3041		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
3042		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
3043		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
3044		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
3045		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
3046		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
3047		but sometimes that is not allowed.
3048
3049- Hashing support:
3050		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
3051
3052		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
3053		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
3054
3055		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
3056
3057		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
3058		size a little.
3059
3060		CONFIG_SHA1 - This option enables support of hashing using SHA1
3061		algorithm. The hash is calculated in software.
3062		CONFIG_SHA256 - This option enables support of hashing using
3063		SHA256 algorithm. The hash is calculated in software.
3064		CONFIG_SHA_HW_ACCEL - This option enables hardware acceleration
3065		for SHA1/SHA256 hashing.
3066		This affects the 'hash' command and also the
3067		hash_lookup_algo() function.
3068		CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL - This option enables
3069		hardware-acceleration for SHA1/SHA256 progressive hashing.
3070		Data can be streamed in a block at a time and the hashing
3071		is performed in hardware.
3072
3073		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
3074		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
3075
3076- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
3077		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
3078		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
3079		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
3080
3081		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
3082		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
3083		a boot from specific media.
3084
3085		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
3086		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
3087		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
3088		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
3089		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
3090
3091- bootcount support:
3092		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
3093
3094		This enables the bootcounter support, see:
3095		http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
3096
3097		CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
3098		enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
3099		CONFIG_BLACKFIN
3100		enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
3101		CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
3102		enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
3103		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
3104		enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
3105		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
3106		enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
3107			CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
3108			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
3109						    the bootcounter.
3110			CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
3111
3112- Show boot progress:
3113		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
3114
3115		Defining this option allows to add some board-
3116		specific code (calling a user-provided function
3117		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
3118		the system's boot progress on some display (for
3119		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
3120		the following checkpoints are implemented:
3121
3122

3275
3276- legacy image format:
3277		CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3278		enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
3279
3280		Default:
3281		enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
3282
3283		CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
3284		disable the legacy image format
3285
3286		This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
3287		enabled per default for backward compatibility.
3288
3289- FIT image support:
3290		CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256
3291		Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size.
3292		For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled
3293		with this option.
3294
3295		TODO(sjg@chromium.org): Adjust this option to be positive,
3296		and move it to Kconfig
3297
3298- Standalone program support:
3299		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3300
3301		This option defines a board specific value for the
3302		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
3303		overwriting the architecture dependent default
3304		settings.
3305
3306- Frame Buffer Address:
3307		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
3308
3309		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3310		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
3311		when using a graphics controller has separate video
3312		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3313		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3314		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3315		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3316		configured panel size.
3317
3318		Please see board_init_f function.
3319
3320- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
3321		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
3322		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
3323		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
3324
3325		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
3326		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
3327
3328- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
3329		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
3330
3331		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
3332		Needed for mtdparts command support.
3333
3334		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
3335
3336		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
3337		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
3338
3339- UBI support
3340		CONFIG_CMD_UBI
3341
3342		Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3343		with the UBI flash translation layer
3344
3345		Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3346
3347		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3348
3349		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
3350		warnings and errors enabled.
3351
3352
3353		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
3354		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
3355		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
3356		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
3357		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
3358		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
3359
3360		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
3361		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
3362		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
3363		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
3364		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
3365
3366		default: 4096
3367
3368		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
3369		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
3370		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
3371		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
3372		flash), this value is ignored.
3373
3374		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
3375		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
3376		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
3377		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
3378		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
3379		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
3380
3381		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
3382		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
3383		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
3384		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
3385		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
3386		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
3387		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
3388		partition.
3389
3390		default: 20
3391
3392		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
3393		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
3394		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
3395		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
3396		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
3397		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
3398		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
3399		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
3400		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
3401		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
3402		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
3403		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
3404
3405		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
3406		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
3407		without a fastmap.
3408		default: 0
3409
3410		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FM_DEBUG
3411		Enable UBI fastmap debug
3412		default: 0
3413
3414- UBIFS support
3415		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3416
3417		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3418		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3419
3420		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3421
3422		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3423
3424		Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing.  This leaves
3425		warnings and errors enabled.
3426
3427- SPL framework
3428		CONFIG_SPL
3429		Enable building of SPL globally.
3430
3431		CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT
3432		LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
3433
3434		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
3435		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
3436		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
3437		used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3438		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3439		must not be both defined at the same time.
3440
3441		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
3442		Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and
3443		linker lists sections), BSS excluded.
3444		When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does
3445		not exceed it.
3446
3447		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
3448		TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary.
3449
3450		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE
3451		Address to relocate to.  If unspecified, this is equal to
3452		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done).
3453
3454		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR
3455		Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary.
3456
3457		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3458		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS.
3459		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used
3460		by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3461		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
3462		must not be both defined at the same time.
3463
3464		CONFIG_SPL_STACK
3465		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use
3466
3467		CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE
3468		When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has
3469		loaded does not have a signature.
3470		Defining this is useful when code which loads images
3471		in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors
3472		will be caught.
3473		An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will
3474		consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad,
3475		and thus should be skipped silently.
3476
3477		CONFIG_SPL_ABORT_ON_RAW_IMAGE
3478		When defined, SPL will proceed to another boot method
3479		if the image it has loaded does not have a signature.
3480
3481		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
3482		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
3483		relocation.  If unspecified, this is equal to
3484		CONFIG_SPL_STACK.
3485
3486		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START
3487		Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL.
3488		When this option is set the full malloc is used in SPL and
3489		it is set up by spl_init() and before that, the simple malloc()
3490		can be used if CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F is defined.
3491
3492		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE
3493		The size of the malloc pool used in SPL.
3494
3495		CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK
3496		Enable the SPL framework under common/.  This framework
3497		supports MMC, NAND and YMODEM loading of U-Boot and NAND
3498		NAND loading of the Linux Kernel.
3499
3500		CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT
3501		Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL.
3502		See also: doc/README.falcon
3503
3504		CONFIG_SPL_DISPLAY_PRINT
3505		For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information
3506		about the running system.
3507
3508		CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL

3528		Address and partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from
3529		when the MMC is being used in raw mode.
3530
3531		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION
3532		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being

3536		Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being
3537		used in raw mode (for Falcon mode)
3538
3539		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR,
3540		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS

3561
3562		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_ARGS_NAME
3563		Filename to read to load kernel argument parameters
3564		when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
3565
3566		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
3567		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
3568		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3569		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3570		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
3571
3572		CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE
3573		Avoid SPL relocation
3574
3575		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE
3576		Include nand_base.c in the SPL.  Requires

3588
3589		CONFIG_SPL_UBI
3590		Support for a lightweight UBI (fastmap) scanner and
3591		loader

3595		environment on NAND support within SPL.
3596
3597		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY
3598		Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only
3599		if you need to save space.
3600
3601		CONFIG_SPL_MPC8XXX_INIT_DDR_SUPPORT
3602		Set for the SPL on PPC mpc8xxx targets, support for
3603		drivers/ddr/fsl/libddr.o in SPL binary.
3604
3605		CONFIG_SPL_COMMON_INIT_DDR
3606		Set for common ddr init with serial presence detect in
3607		SPL binary.
3608
3609		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT,
3610		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE,
3611		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,

3625
3626		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE
3627		Size of image to load
3628
3629		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
3630		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
3631
3632		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
3633		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
3634		data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms.
3635
3636		CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND
3637		Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the
3638		ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present.

3641		Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary
3642
3643		CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT
3644		Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary
3645
3646		CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUPPORT
3647		Support for drivers/spi/libspi.o in SPL binary
3648
3649		CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE
3650		Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary
3651
3652		CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT
3653		Support for lib/libgeneric.o in SPL binary
3654
3655		CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT
3656		Support for the environment operating in SPL binary
3657
3658		CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT
3659		Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary.
3660		It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by
3661		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3662
3663		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3664		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3665		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3666		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3667		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3668		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3669
3670		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3671		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3672		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3673		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3674
3675		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3676		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3677		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3678		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3679		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3680
3681- TPL framework
3682		CONFIG_TPL
3683		Enable building of TPL globally.
3684
3685		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
3686		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
3687		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3688		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3689		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3690		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3691
3692- Interrupt support (PPC):
3693
3694		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3695		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3696		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3697		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3698		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3699		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3700		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3701		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3702		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3703		general timer_interrupt().
3704
3705
3706Board initialization settings:
3707------------------------------
3708
3709During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3710to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3711before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3712following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3713architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3714typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3715
3716- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3717- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3718- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3719- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3720
3721Configuration Settings:
3722-----------------------
3723
3724- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
3725		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
3726
3727- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3728		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3729
3730- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3731		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3732
3733- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3734		prompt for user input.
3735
3736- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3737
3738- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3739
3740- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3741
3742- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3743		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3744		booted
3745
3746- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3747		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3748
3749- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3750		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3751
3752- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3753		If the board specific function
3754			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3755		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3756		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3757
3758- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3759		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3760
3761- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3762		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3763
3764- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3765		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3766		simple memory test.
3767
3768- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3769		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3770
3771- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3772		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3773		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3774
3775- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE
3776		Only implemented for ARMv8 for now.
3777		If defined, the size of CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE memory
3778		is substracted from total RAM and won't be reported to OS.
3779		This memory can be used as secure memory. A variable
3780		gd->arch.secure_ram is used to track the location. In systems
3781		the RAM base is not zero, or RAM is divided into banks,
3782		this variable needs to be recalcuated to get the address.
3783
3784- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE:
3785		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3786		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3787		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3788		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3789		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3790		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3791		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3792		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3793		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3794
3795		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3796		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3797		be touched.
3798
3799		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3800		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3801		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3802		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3803		problems.
3804
3805- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3806		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3807
3808- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3809		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3810
3811- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3812		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3813		Cogent motherboard)
3814
3815- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3816		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3817
3818- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3819		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3820		make config files to be same as the text base address
3821		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3822		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3823
3824- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3825		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3826		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3827		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3828		flash sector.
3829
3830- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3831		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3832
3833- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3834		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3835		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3836		will become available before relocation. The address is just
3837		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3838		space.
3839
3840		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3841		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3842		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3843		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when
3844		U-Boot relocates itself.
3845
3846- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE
3847		Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those
3848		boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is
3849		enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START).
3850
3851- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY:
3852		Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be
3853		typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped
3854		uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would
3855		otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For
3856		some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the
3857		cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed
3858		are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding
3859		cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e.
3860		if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the
3861		size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of
3862		one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has
3863		written to another region in the same cache-line. This can
3864		happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for
3865		buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g.
3866		16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes).
3867
3868		Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present.
3869
3870- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3871		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3872		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3873		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3874		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3875
3876- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3877		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3878		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3879		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3880		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3881		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3882		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3883		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3884		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3885		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3886		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3887
3888- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3889		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3890		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3891		is enabled.
3892
3893- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3894		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3895		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3896
3897- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3898		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3899		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3900
3901- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3902		Max number of Flash memory banks
3903
3904- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3905		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3906
3907- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3908		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3909
3910- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3911		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3912
3913- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3914		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3915
3916- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3917		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3918
3919- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3920		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3921		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3922
3923- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3924
3925		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3926		without this option such a download has to be
3927		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3928		copy from RAM to flash.
3929
3930		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3931		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3932		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3933		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3934		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3935
3936- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3937		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3938		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3939
3940- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3941		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3942		in the drivers directory
3943
3944- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3945		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3946		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3947		to the MTD layer.
3948
3949- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3950		Use buffered writes to flash.
3951
3952- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3953		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3954		write commands.
3955
3956- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3957		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3958		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3959		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3960		optionally available.
3961
3962- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3963		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3964		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3965		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3966
3967- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3968		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3969		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3970		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3971		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3972		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3973		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3974		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3975
3976- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3977		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3978		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3979		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3980		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3981		on high Ethernet traffic.
3982		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3983
3984- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3985
3986	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3987	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3988	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3989	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3990	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3991
3992- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3993- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3994	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3995	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3996	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3997	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3998
3999	The format of the list is:
4000		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
4001		access_attribute = [a|r|o|c]
4002		attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute]
4003		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
4004		list = entry[,list]
4005
4006	The type attributes are:
4007		s - String (default)
4008		d - Decimal
4009		x - Hexadecimal
4010		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
4011		i - IP address
4012		m - MAC address
4013
4014	The access attributes are:
4015		a - Any (default)
4016		r - Read-only
4017		o - Write-once
4018		c - Change-default
4019
4020	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4021		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
4022		environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4023
4024	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4025		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
4026		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
4027		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
4028		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
4029		".flags" variable.
4030
4031	If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
4032	regular expression. This allows multiple variables to define the same
4033	flags without explicitly listing them for each variable.
4034
4035- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
4036	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
4037	access flags.
4038
4039- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
4040	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
4041	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
4042	the value can be calculated on a given board.
4043
4044- CONFIG_USE_STDINT
4045	If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this
4046	option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when
4047	building U-Boot to enable this.
4048
4049The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
4050of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
4051following configurations:
4052
4053- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
4054
4055	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
4056	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
4057
4058- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
4059
4060	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
4061
4062	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
4063	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
4064	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
4065	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
4066	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
4067	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
4068	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
4069	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
4070	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
4071	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
4072	   between U-Boot and the environment.
4073
4074	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4075
4076	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
4077	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
4078	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
4079	   for this sector is given here.
4080
4081	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
4082
4083	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4084
4085	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
4086	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
4087	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
4088
4089	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4090
4091	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
4092
4093
4094	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
4095	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
4096	   the environment.
4097
4098	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4099
4100	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
4101	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
4102	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
4103	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
4104
4105	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
4106	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
4107	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
4108	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
4109	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
4110	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
4111	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
4112	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
4113	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
4114
4115	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
4116	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
4117
4118	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
4119	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
4120	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
4121	   a "saveenv" operation.
4122
4123BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
4124source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
4125accordingly!
4126
4127
4128- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
4129
4130	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
4131	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
4132	environment.
4133
4134	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4135	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4136
4137	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
4138	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
4139	  can just be read and written to, without any special
4140	  provision.
4141
4142BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
4143in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the
4144console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
4145U-Boot will hang.
4146
4147Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
4148environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
4149keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
4150to save the current settings.
4151
4152
4153- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
4154
4155	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
4156	device and a driver for it.
4157
4158	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4159	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4160
4161	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4162	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
4163
4164	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
4165	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
4166	  The default address is zero.
4167
4168	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_BUS:
4169	  If defined, specified the i2c bus of the EEPROM device.
4170
4171	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
4172	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
4173	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
4174	  would require six bits.
4175
4176	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
4177	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
4178	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
4179
4180	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
4181	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
4182	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
4183
4184	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
4185	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
4186	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
4187	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
4188	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
4189	  byte chips.
4190
4191	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
4192	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
4193	  in the chip address.
4194
4195	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
4196	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
4197
4198	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
4199	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
4200	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
4201
4202	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
4203	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
4204	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
4205	  EEPROM. For example:
4206
4207	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
4208
4209	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
4210	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
4211
4212- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
4213
4214	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
4215	want to use for the environment.
4216
4217	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4218	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4219	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4220
4221	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
4222	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
4223	  at the specified address.
4224
4225- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH:
4226
4227	Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you
4228	want to use for the environment.
4229
4230	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4231	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4232
4233	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
4234	  environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4235	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4236
4237	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
4238
4239	  Define the SPI flash's sector size.
4240
4241	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4242
4243	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4244	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4245	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4246	  during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4247	  aligned to an erase sector boundary.
4248
4249	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional):
4250	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional):
4251
4252	  Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0.
4253
4254	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional):
4255
4256	  Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz.
4257
4258	- CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional):
4259
4260	  Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3.
4261
4262- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
4263
4264	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
4265	want to use for the local device's environment.
4266
4267	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
4268	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4269
4270	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
4271	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
4272	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
4273	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
4274
4275BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
4276"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
4277environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
4278but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
4279
4280- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
4281
4282	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
4283	for the environment.
4284
4285	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4286	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4287
4288	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4289	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
4290	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4291
4292	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4293
4294	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
4295	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
4296	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
4297	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
4298	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
4299
4300	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
4301
4302	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
4303	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
4304	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
4305	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
4306	  the range to be avoided.
4307
4308	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
4309
4310	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
4311	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
4312	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
4313	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
4314	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
4315
4316- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
4317
4318	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
4319	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
4320	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4321
4322- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
4323
4324	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
4325	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
4326	accesses, which is important on NAND.
4327
4328	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
4329
4330	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
4331
4332	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
4333
4334	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
4335	  environment in.
4336
4337	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
4338
4339	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
4340	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
4341	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
4342
4343	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
4344	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
4345
4346	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
4347	  when storing the env in UBI.
4348
4349- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT:
4350       Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment.
4351
4352       - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE:
4353
4354         Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.
4355
4356       - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
4357
4358         Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
4359         be as following:
4360
4361           "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1)
4362               - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no
4363                        partition table.
4364               - "D:0": device D.
4365               - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition
4366                              table, or the whole device D if has no partition
4367                              table.
4368               - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
4369                           If none, first valid partition in device D. If no
4370                           partition table then means device D.
4371
4372       - FAT_ENV_FILE:
4373
4374         It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the
4375         environment.
4376
4377       - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE:
4378         This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the environment file.
4379
4380- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
4381
4382	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
4383	environment.
4384
4385	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4386
4387	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4388
4389	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4390
4391	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4392	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4393	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4394
4395	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4396	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4397
4398	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4399	  area within the specified MMC device.
4400
4401	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4402	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4403	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4404	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4405	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4406	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4407	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4408
4409	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4410	  MMC sector boundary.
4411
4412	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4413
4414	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4415	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4416	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4417	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4418
4419	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4420	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4421
4422	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4423	  an MMC sector boundary.
4424
4425	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4426
4427	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4428	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4429	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4430
4431- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
4432
4433	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4434	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4435	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4436	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4437	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4438	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4439	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4440
4441Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
4442has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
4443created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
4444until then to read environment variables.
4445
4446The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4447is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4448with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4449necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4450"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4451have any device yet where we could complain.]
4452
4453Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4454the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
4455use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
4456
4457- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
4458		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
4459
4460		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
4461		      also needs to be defined.
4462
4463- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
4464		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
4465
4466- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
4467		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
4468		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
4469		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
4470		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
4471		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
4472
4473- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
4474		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
4475		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
4476		to do this.
4477
4478- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
4479		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
4480		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
4481		present.
4482
4483- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
4484		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
4485		build system checks that the actual size does not
4486		exceed it.
4487
4488Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
4489---------------------------------------------------
4490
4491- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
4492		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
4493
4494- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
4495		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
4496
4497		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4498		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
4499		the IMMR register after a reset.
4500
4501- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4502		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4503		PowerPC SOCs.
4504
4505- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4506		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4507		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4508
4509		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4510		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4511
4512- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4513		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
4514		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
4515		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
4516		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
4517		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
4518		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4519
4520		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4521			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4522
4523- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
4524		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
4525		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
4526		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4527		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4528
4529- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4530		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
4531		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4532		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4533
4534- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4535		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4536		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
4537
4538- Floppy Disk Support:
4539		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
4540
4541		the default drive number (default value 0)
4542
4543		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4544
4545		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4546		(default value 1)
4547
4548		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4549
4550		defines the offset of register from address. It
4551		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4552		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4553
4554		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4555		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4556		default value.
4557
4558		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4559		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4560		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4561		source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent
4562		initializations.
4563
4564- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4565		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4566		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4567		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4568		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4569		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4570		is required.
4571
4572- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4573		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4574		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4575
4576- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4577
4578		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4579		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4580		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4581		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4582		will become available only after programming the
4583		memory controller and running certain initialization
4584		sequences.
4585
4586		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4587		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4588		- MPC824X: data cache
4589		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4590
4591- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4592
4593		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4594		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4595		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4596		data is located at the end of the available space
4597		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4598		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4599		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4600		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4601
4602	Note:
4603		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4604		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4605		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4606		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4607		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.
4608

4641  CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_8K, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_8COL, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_9COL:
4642		Machine Mode Register and Memory Periodic Timer
4643		Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing)
4644

4655		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4]
4656
4657- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK:
4658		Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful,
4659		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4660		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4661
4662- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4663		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4664		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4665		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.
4666		cpm_8260.h.
4667
4668- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4669  CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4675  CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only)
4676		Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
4677
4678- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4679		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4680		required.
4681
4682- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4683		Only scan through and get the devices on the buses.
4684		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4685		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4686		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4687		by coreboot or similar.
4688
4689- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4690		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4691
4692- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
4693		Chip has SRIO or not
4694
4695- CONFIG_SRIO1:
4696		Board has SRIO 1 port available
4697

4699		Board has SRIO 2 port available
4700
4701- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER
4702		Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE
4703

4710- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE:
4711		Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4712
4713- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
4714		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
4715		a 16 bit bus.
4716		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
4717		Example of drivers that use it:
4718		- drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c
4719		- drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c
4720
4721- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG
4722		Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined
4723		a default value will be used.
4724
4725- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM
4726		Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common
4727		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
4728
4729  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
4730		I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
4731
4732- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
4733		If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
4734		one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
4735		to something your driver can deal with.
4736
4737- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4738		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4739		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
4740		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
4741		header files or board specific files.
4742
4743- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
4744		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4745
4746- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_SYNC_REFRESH
4747		Enable sync of refresh for multiple controllers.
4748
4749- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_BIST
4750		Enable built-in memory test for Freescale DDR controllers.
4751
4752- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4753		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4754		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4755
4756- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4757		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4758
4759- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4760		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4761		to the given FEC; i. e.
4762			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4763		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4764
4765		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4766
4767- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4768		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4769		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4770
4771- CONFIG_RMII
4772		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4773		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4774		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4775
4776- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4777		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4778		The syntax is:
4779
4780		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4781
4782		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4783		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4784		area should have.
4785
4786- CONFIG_LOOPW
4787		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4788		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4789
4790- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4791		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4792		"md/mw" commands.
4793		Examples:
4794
4795		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4796		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4797
4798		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4799		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4800
4801		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4802		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4803
4804- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4805		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4806		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4807		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4808		relocate itself into RAM.
4809
4810		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4811		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4812		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4813		these initializations itself.
4814
4815- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT_ONLY
4816		[ARM926EJ-S only] This allows just the call to lowlevel_init()
4817		to be skipped. The normal CP15 init (such as enabling the
4818		instruction cache) is still performed.
4819
4820- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4821		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4822		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4823		compiling a NAND SPL.
4824
4825- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4826		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4827		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4828		It is loaded by the SPL.
4829
4830- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4831		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4832		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4833		previous 4k of the .text section.
4834
4835- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4836		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4837		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4838		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4839		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4840		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4841		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4842		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4843
4844- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4845  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4846		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4847		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4848		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4849
4850- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4851		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4852		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4853
4854- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4855		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4856
4857		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4858
4859- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4860		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4861
4862- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
4863		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
4864		driver that uses this:
4865		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
4866
4867Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4868-----------------------------------
4869
4870The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4871loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4872This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4873are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4874within that device.
4875
4876- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4877	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
4878	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4879	is also specified.
4880
4881- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
4882	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
4883	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4884	is also specified.
4885
4886- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4887	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4888	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4889	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4890	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4891
4892- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4893	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4894	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4895	virtual address in NOR flash.
4896
4897- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4898	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4899	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4900
4901- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4902	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4903	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4904
4905- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4906	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4907	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4908
4909- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4910	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4911	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4912	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4913	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4914	master's memory space.
4915
4916Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
4917---------------------------------------------------------
4918The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
4919"firmware".
4920This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4921are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4922within that device.
4923
4924- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
4925	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
4926
4927- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR
4928	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4929	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro
4930	is also specified.
4931
4932- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH
4933	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4934	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4935	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4936	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4937
4938- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR
4939	Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4940	normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
4941	virtual address in NOR flash.
4942
4943Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support:
4944-------------------------------------------
4945The Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support supports the loading of
4946"Debug Server firmware" and triggering SP boot-rom.
4947This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting.
4948
4949- CONFIG_FSL_DEBUG_SERVER
4950	Enable the Debug Server for Layerscape SoCs.
4951
4952- CONFIG_SYS_DEBUG_SERVER_DRAM_BLOCK_MIN_SIZE
4953	Define minimum DDR size required for debug server image
4954
4955- CONFIG_SYS_MC_RSV_MEM_ALIGN
4956	Define alignment of reserved memory MC requires
4957
4958Reproducible builds
4959-------------------
4960
4961In order to achieve reproducible builds, timestamps used in the U-Boot build
4962process have to be set to a fixed value.
4963
4964This is done using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable.
4965SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is to be set on the build host's shell, not as a configuration
4966option for U-Boot or an environment variable in U-Boot.
4967
4968SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH should be set to a number of seconds since the epoch, in UTC.
4969
4970Building the Software:
4971======================
4972
4973Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4974and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4975all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4976(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4977recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4978which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4979
4980If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4981have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4982you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4983Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4984necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4985
4986	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4987	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
4988
4989Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4990      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4991      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4992      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
4993
4994       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4995
4996      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4997      be executed on computers running Windows.
4998
4999U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
5000sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
5001is done by typing:
5002
5003	make NAME_defconfig
5004
5005where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
5006rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
5007
5008Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
5009      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
5010      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
5011      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
5012      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
5013
5014      make TQM823L_defconfig
5015	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
5016
5017      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
5018	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
5019
5020      etc.
5021
5022
5023Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
5024images ready for download to / installation on your system:
5025
5026- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
5027- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
5028- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
5029
5030By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
5031in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
5032this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
5033
50341. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
5035
5036	make O=/tmp/build distclean
5037	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
5038	make O=/tmp/build all
5039
50402. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location:
5041
5042	export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build
5043	make distclean
5044	make NAME_defconfig
5045	make all
5046
5047Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment
5048variable.
5049
5050
5051Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
5052for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
5053native "make".
5054
5055
5056If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
5057to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
5058steps:
5059
50601.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
5061    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
5062    the "Makefile" and a "<board>.c".
50632.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
5064    your board.
50653.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
5066    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
50674.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
50685.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
5069    to be installed on your target system.
50706.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
5071    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
5072
5073
5074Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
5075==============================================================
5076
5077If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
5078or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
5079provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
5080the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
5081official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
5082
5083But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
5084cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
5085the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
5086just run the buildman script (tools/buildman/buildman), which will
5087configure and build U-Boot for ALL supported system. Be warned, this
5088will take a while. Please see the buildman README, or run 'buildman -H'
5089for documentation.

5148
5149For now: just type "help <command>".
5150
5151
5152Environment Variables:
5153======================
5154
5155U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
5156can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
5157
5158Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
5159"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
5160without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
5161environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
5162working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
5163environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
5164
5165Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
5166
5167List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
5168
5169  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
5170
5171  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
5172
5173  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
5174
5175  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
5176
5177  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
5178
5179  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5180		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5181		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
5182		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
5183		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
5184		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
5185		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
5186		  bootm_mapsize.
5187
5188  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
5189		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
5190		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
5191		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
5192		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
5193		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
5194		  used otherwise.
5195
5196  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5197		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5198		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
5199		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
5200		  environment variable.
5201
5202  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
5203		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
5204		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
5205
5206  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
5207		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
5208		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
5209		  load any image using TFTP
5210
5211  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
5212		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
5213		  be automatically started (by internally calling
5214		  "bootm")
5215
5216		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
5217		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
5218		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
5219		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
5220		  data.
5221
5222  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
5223		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
5224		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
5225		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
5226		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
5227		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
5228		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
5229		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
5230		  access it during the boot procedure.
5231
5232		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
5233		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
5234		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
5235		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
5236		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
5237		  must be accessible by the kernel.
5238
5239  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
5240		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
5241		  defined.
5242
5243  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
5244		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
5245		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
5246		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
5247		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
5248
5249  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
5250		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
5251		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
5252		  is usually what you want since it allows for
5253		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
5254		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
5255		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
5256		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
5257		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
5258		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
5259		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
5260
5261		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
5262		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
5263		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
5264		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
5265		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
5266		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
5267
5268		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
5269
5270		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
5271		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
5272		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
5273		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
5274		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
5275		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
5276		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
5277
5278  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5279
5280  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
5281		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
5282
5283  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
5284
5285  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5286
5287  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
5288
5289  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
5290
5291  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
5292
5293  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
5294
5295  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
5296		  For example you can do the following
5297
5298		  => setenv ethact FEC
5299		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
5300		  => setenv ethact SCC
5301		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
5302
5303  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
5304		  available network interfaces.
5305		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
5306
5307  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
5308		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
5309		  When set to "once" the network operation will
5310		  fail when all the available network interfaces
5311		  are tried once without success.
5312		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
5313		  themselves.
5314
5315  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
5316
5317  silent_linux  - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by
5318		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
5319		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
5320		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
5321		  is silent.
5322
5323  tftpsrcp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
5324		  UDP source port.
5325
5326  tftpdstp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
5327		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
5328
5329  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
5330		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
5331
5332  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
5333		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
5334		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
5335		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
5336		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
5337		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
5338		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
5339
5340  tftptimeoutcountmax	- maximum count of TFTP timeouts (no
5341		  unit, minimum value = 0). Defines how many timeouts
5342		  can happen during a single file transfer before that
5343		  transfer is aborted. The default is 10, and 0 means
5344		  'no timeouts allowed'. Increasing this value may help
5345		  downloads succeed with high packet loss rates, or with
5346		  unreliable TFTP servers or client hardware.
5347
5348  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
5349		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
5350		  VLAN tagged frames.
5351
5352  bootpretryperiod	- Period during which BOOTP/DHCP sends retries.
5353		  Unsigned value, in milliseconds. If not set, the period will
5354		  be either the default (28000), or a value based on
5355		  CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT, if defined. This value has
5356		  precedence over the valu based on CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT.
5357
5358The following image location variables contain the location of images
5359used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
5360not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
5361variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
5362server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
5363loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
5364flash or offset in NAND flash.
5365
5366*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
5367boards currently use other variables for these purposes, and some
5368boards use these variables for other purposes.
5369
5370Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location

5376
5377The following environment variables may be used and automatically
5378updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
5379depending the information provided by your boot server:
5380
5381  bootfile	- see above
5382  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
5383  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5384  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5385  hostname	- Target hostname
5386  ipaddr	- see above
5387  netmask	- Subnet Mask
5388  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5389  serverip	- see above
5390
5391
5392There are two special Environment Variables:
5393
5394  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
5395		  as type string and/or serial number
5396  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
5397
5398These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5399the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5400once they have been set once.
5401
5402
5403Further special Environment Variables:
5404
5405  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5406		  with the "version" command. This variable is
5407		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
5408
5409
5410Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
5411only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
5412
5413
5414Callback functions for environment variables:
5415---------------------------------------------
5416
5417For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5418when their values are changed.  This functionality allows functions to
5419be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
5420deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5421effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5422
5423The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5424U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5425
5426These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
5427static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5428in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5429associations.  The list must be in the following format:
5430
5431	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5432	list = entry[,list]
5433
5434If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5435Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5436
5437Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5438with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
5439override any association in the static list. You can define
5440CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5441".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5442
5443If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
5444regular expression. This allows multiple variables to be connected to
5445the same callback without explicitly listing them all out.
5446
5447
5448Command Line Parsing:
5449=====================
5450
5451There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5452the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5453
5454Old, simple command line parser:
5455--------------------------------
5456
5457- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5458- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5459- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5460- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5461  for example:
5462	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5463- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5464	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5465
5466Hush shell:
5467-----------
5468
5469- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5470  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5471  until...do...done, ...
5472- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5473  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5474  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5475  command
5476
5477General rules:
5478--------------
5479
5480(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5481    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5482    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5483    executed anyway.
5484
5485(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5486    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5487    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5488    variables are not executed.
5489
5490Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5491=======================================
5492
5493Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5494such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5495"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5496
5497Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5498MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5499"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5500
5501If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5502in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5503ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5504variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5505
5506o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5507  environment, the SROM's address is used.
5508
5509o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5510  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5511  used.
5512
5513o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5514  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5515
5516o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5517  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5518  warning is printed.
5519
5520o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5521  is raised. If CONFIG_NET_RANDOM_ETHADDR is defined, then in this case
5522  a random, locally-assigned MAC is used.
5523
5524If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5525will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
5526may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5527The naming convention is as follows:
5528"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5529
5530Image Formats:
5531==============
5532
5533U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5534images in two formats:
5535
5536New uImage format (FIT)
5537-----------------------
5538
5539Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5540to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5541components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5542SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5543
5544
5545Old uImage format
5546-----------------
5547
5548Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5549preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5550details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5551
5552* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5553  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5554  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5555  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5556  INTEGRITY).
5557* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5558  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5559  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5560* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5561* Load Address
5562* Entry Point
5563* Image Name
5564* Image Timestamp
5565
5566The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5567and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5568CRC32 checksums.
5569
5570
5571Linux Support:
5572==============
5573
5574Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5575easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5576U-Boot.
5577
5578U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5579special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5580"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5581instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5582serves several purposes:
5583
5584- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5585  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5586  Flash memory footprint)
5587
5588- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5589  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5590
5591- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5592  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5593  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5594  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5595  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5596  software is easier now.
5597
5598
5599Linux HOWTO:
5600============
5601
5602Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5603---------------------------------------
5604
5605U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5606configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5607(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5608Linux :-).
5609
5610But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5611
5612Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5613include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5614Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5615and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5616as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5617
5618Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
5619If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
5620is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
5621doc/driver-model.
5622
5623
5624Configuring the Linux kernel:
5625-----------------------------
5626
5627No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5628device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5629
5630
5631Building a Linux Image:
5632-----------------------
5633
5634With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5635not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5636"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5637U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5638which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5639100% compatible format.
5640
5641Example:
5642
5643	make TQM850L_defconfig
5644	make oldconfig
5645	make dep
5646	make uImage
5647
5648The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5649encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5650CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5651
5652* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5653
5654* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5655
5656	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5657				 -R .note -R .comment \
5658				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5659
5660* compress the binary image:
5661
5662	gzip -9 linux.bin
5663
5664* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5665
5666	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5667		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5668		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5669
5670
5671The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5672with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5673combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5674byte header containing information about target architecture,
5675operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5676stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5677
5678"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5679print the header information, or to build new images.
5680
5681In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5682contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5683checksum verification:
5684
5685	tools/mkimage -l image
5686	  -l ==> list image header information
5687
5688The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5689from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5690
5691	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5692		      -n name -d data_file image
5693	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5694	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5695	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5696	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5697	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5698	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5699	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5700	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5701
5702Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5703address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5704kernel version:
5705
5706- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5707- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5708
5709So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5710
5711	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5712	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5713	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5714	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5715	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5716	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5717	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5718	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5719	Load Address: 0x00000000
5720	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5721
5722To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5723
5724	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5725	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5726	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5727	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5728	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5729	Load Address: 0x00000000
5730	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5731
5732NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5733speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5734needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5735need to be uncompressed:
5736
5737	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5738	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5739	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5740	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5741	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5742	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5743	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5744	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5745	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5746	Load Address: 0x00000000
5747	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5748
5749
5750Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5751when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5752
5753	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5754	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5755	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5756	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5757	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5758	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5759	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5760	Load Address: 0x00000000
5761	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5762
5763The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5764option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5765option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5766from the image:
5767
5768	tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file
5769	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file'
5770	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5771	  -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image'
5772
5773
5774Installing a Linux Image:
5775-------------------------
5776
5777To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5778you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5779
5780	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5781
5782The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5783image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5784address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5785specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5786command.
5787
5788Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5789TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5790
5791	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5792
5793	.......... done
5794	Erased 8 sectors
5795
5796	=> loads 40100000
5797	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5798	~>examples/image.srec
5799	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
5800	...
5801	15989 15990 15991 15992
5802	[file transfer complete]
5803	[connected]
5804	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5805
5806
5807You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5808this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5809corruption happened:
5810
5811	=> imi 40100000
5812
5813	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
5814	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L
5815	   Image Type:	 PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5816	   Data Size:	 335725 Bytes = 327 kB = 0 MB
5817	   Load Address: 00000000
5818	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
5819	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
5820
5821
5822Boot Linux:
5823-----------
5824
5825The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5826memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5827of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5828parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5829"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5830
5831
5832	=> printenv bootargs
5833	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5834
5835	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5836
5837	=> printenv bootargs
5838	bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5839
5840	=> bootm 40020000
5841	## Booting Linux kernel at 40020000 ...
5842	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for NFS on TQM850L

5954More About U-Boot Image Types:
5955------------------------------
5956
5957U-Boot supports the following image types:
5958
5959   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5960	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5961	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5962	the Standalone Program.
5963   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5964	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5965	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5966	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5967	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5968   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5969	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5970	being started.
5971   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5972	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5973	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5974	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5975	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5976	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5977
5978	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5979	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5980	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5981	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5982	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5983	a multiple of 4 bytes).
5984
5985   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5986	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5987	flash memory.
5988
5989   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5990	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5991	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5992	as command interpreter.
5993
5994Booting the Linux zImage:
5995-------------------------
5996
5997On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5998using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5999as the syntax of "bootm" command.
6000
6001Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
6002kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
6003address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
6004format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
6005
6006
6007Standalone HOWTO:
6008=================
6009
6010One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
6011run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
6012U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
6013
6014Two simple examples are included with the sources:
6015
6016"Hello World" Demo:
6017-------------------
6018
6019'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
6020application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
6021It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
6022like that:
6023
6024	=> loads
6025	## Ready for S-Record download ...
6026	~>examples/hello_world.srec
6027	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
6028	[file transfer complete]
6029	[connected]
6030	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
6031
6032	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
6033	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
6034	Hello World
6035	argc = 7
6036	argv[0] = "40004"
6037	argv[1] = "Hello"
6038	argv[2] = "World!"
6039	argv[3] = "This"
6040	argv[4] = "is"
6041	argv[5] = "a"
6042	argv[6] = "test."
6043	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
6044	Hit any key to exit ...
6045
6046	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
6047
6048Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
6049handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
6050Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
6051The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
6052character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
6053controlled by the following keys:
6054
6055	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
6056	b - enable interrupts and start timer
6057	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
6058	q - quit application
6059
6060	=> loads
6061	## Ready for S-Record download ...

6095Minicom warning:
6096================
6097
6098Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
6099"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
6100consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
6101Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
6102especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
6103use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
6104http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
6105for help with kermit.
6106
6107
6108Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
6109configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
6110
6111	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
6112	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N
6113	Y  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r	 N    D	   Y	   N	  N

6116NetBSD Notes:
6117=============
6118
6119Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
6120(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
6121
6122Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
6123NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
6124need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
6125Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
6126attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
6127missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
6128
6129	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
6130	# mkdir powerpc
6131	# ln -s powerpc machine
6132	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
6133	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
6134
6135Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
6136and U-Boot include files.
6137
6138Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
6139stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
6140proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
6141tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
6142meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
6143
6144
6145Implementation Internals:
6146=========================
6147
6148The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
6149implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
6150inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
6151hardware.
6152
6153
6154Initial Stack, Global Data:
6155---------------------------
6156
6157The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
6158starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
6159system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
6160This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
6161is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
6162at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
6163options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
6164models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
6165MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
6166locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
6167
6168	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
6169	U-Boot mailing list:
6170
6171	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
6172	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
6173	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
6174	...
6175
6176	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
6177	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
6178	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
6179	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
6180	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
6181	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
6182	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
6183	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
6184
6185	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
6186	is another option for the system designer to use as an
6187	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
6188	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
6189	board designers haven't used it for something that would
6190	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
6191	used.
6192
6193	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
6194	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
6195	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
6196	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
6197	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
6198	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
6199	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
6200	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
6201	you get the config right.

6205
6206It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
6207code for the initialization procedures:
6208
6209* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
6210  to write it.
6211
6212* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized
6213  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
6214  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
6215
6216* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
6217  that.
6218
6219Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
6220normal global data to share information between the code. But it
6221turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
6222simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
6223functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
6224functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
6225the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
6226place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
6227reserve for this purpose.
6228
6229When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
6230relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
6231GCC's implementation.
6232
6233For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
6234	R1:	stack pointer
6235	R2:	reserved for system use
6236	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
6237	R5-R10: parameter passing
6238	R13:	small data area pointer
6239	R30:	GOT pointer
6240	R31:	frame pointer
6241
6242	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
6243	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
6244	going back and forth between asm and C)
6245
6246    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
6247
6248    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
6249    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
6250    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
6251    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
6252    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
6253    624 text + 127 data).
6254
6255On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
6256	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
6257
6258    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
6259
6260On ARM, the following registers are used:
6261
6262	R0:	function argument word/integer result
6263	R1-R3:	function argument word
6264	R9:	platform specific
6265	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
6266	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
6267	R12:	temporary workspace
6268	R13:	stack pointer
6269	R14:	link register
6270	R15:	program counter
6271
6272    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
6273
6274    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
6275
6276On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
6277	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
6278
6279    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
6280
6281    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
6282    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
6283
6284On NDS32, the following registers are used:
6285
6286	R0-R1:	argument/return
6287	R2-R5:	argument

6298NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
6299or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.

6301Memory Management:
6302------------------
6303
6304U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
6305MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
6306
6307The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
6308controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
6309memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
6310physical memory banks.
6311
6312U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
6313TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
6314booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
6315to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
6316memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
6317configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
6318Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
6319
6320Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
6321of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
6322
6323So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
6324this:
6325
6326	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
6327	      :
6328	0x0000 1FFF
6329	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
6330	      :
6331	      :
6332
6333	      :
6334	      :
6335	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
6336	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
6337	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
6338	      :
6339	0x00FD FFFF
6340	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
6341	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
6342	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
6343	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
6344
6345
6346System Initialization:
6347----------------------
6348
6349In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
6350(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
6351configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory.
6352To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
6353To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
6354initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
6355which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
6356part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
6357the caches and the SIU.
6358
6359Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
6360preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
6361(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
6362on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
6363programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
6364simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
6365banks.
6366
6367When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
6368different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
6369bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
63700x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
6371contiguous memory starting from 0.
6372
6373Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
6374and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
6375Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
6376pages, and the final stack is set up.
6377
6378Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
6379until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
6380running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
6381new address in RAM.

6458Coding Standards:
6459-----------------
6460
6461All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6462coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6463"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6464
6465Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6466MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6467reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6468sources.
6469
6470Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6471Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6472in your code.
6473
6474Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6475- remove any trailing white space
6476- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6477- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6478- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6479- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6480
6481Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6482with a request to reformat the changes.
6483
6484
6485Submitting Patches:
6486-------------------
6487
6488Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6489establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6490may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6491
6492Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6493
6494Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6495see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6496
6497When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6498it:
6499
6500* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6501  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6502  patch actually fixes something.
6503
6504* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6505  implementation.
6506
6507* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6508
6509* For major contributions, add a MAINTAINERS file with your
6510  information and associated file and directory references.
6511
6512* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6513  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6514
6515* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6516  document these in the README file.
6517
6518* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6519  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6520  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6521  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6522  with some other mail clients.
6523
6524  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6525  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6526  GNU diff.
6527
6528  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6529  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6530  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6531  affected files).
6532
6533  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6534  and compressed attachments must not be used.
6535
6536* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6537  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6538
6539* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6540  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6541
6542
6543Notes:
6544
6545* Before sending the patch, run the buildman script on your patched
6546  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6547  for any of the boards.
6548
6549* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6550  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6551  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6552
6553* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6554  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6555  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6556  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6557  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6558  modification.
6559
6560* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6561  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6562  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6563  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
