1menu "Boot timing" 2 3config BOOTSTAGE 4 bool "Boot timing and reporting" 5 help 6 Enable recording of boot time while booting. To use it, insert 7 calls to bootstage_mark() with a suitable BOOTSTAGE_ID from 8 bootstage.h. Only a single entry is recorded for each ID. You can 9 give the entry a name with bootstage_mark_name(). You can also 10 record elapsed time in a particular stage using bootstage_start() 11 before starting and bootstage_accum() when finished. Bootstage will 12 add up all the accumated time and report it. 13 14 Normally, IDs are defined in bootstage.h but a small number of 15 additional 'user' IDs can be used but passing BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC 16 as the ID. 17 18 Calls to show_boot_progress() wil also result in log entries but 19 these will not have names. 20 21config BOOTSTAGE_REPORT 22 bool "Display a detailed boot timing report before booting the OS" 23 depends on BOOTSTAGE 24 help 25 Enable output of a boot time report just before the OS is booted. 26 This shows how long it took U-Boot to go through each stage of the 27 boot process. The report looks something like this: 28 29 Timer summary in microseconds: 30 Mark Elapsed Stage 31 0 0 reset 32 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start 33 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9 34 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done 35 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start 36 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop 37 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start 38 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel 39 40config BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT 41 hex "Number of boot ID numbers available for user use" 42 default 20 43 help 44 This is the number of available user bootstage records. 45 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...) 46 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed 47 the limit, recording will stop. 48 49config BOOTSTAGE_FDT 50 bool "Store boot timing information in the OS device tree" 51 depends on BOOTSTAGE 52 help 53 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage' 54 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child 55 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the 56 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the 57 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds. 58 For example: 59 60 bootstage { 61 154 { 62 name = "board_init_f"; 63 mark = <3575678>; 64 }; 65 170 { 66 name = "lcd"; 67 accum = <33482>; 68 }; 69 }; 70 71 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree. 72 73config BOOTSTAGE_STASH 74 bool "Stash the boot timing information in memory before booting OS" 75 depends on BOOTSTAGE 76 help 77 Some OSes do not support device tree. Bootstage can instead write 78 the boot timing information in a binary format at a given address. 79 This happens through a call to bootstage_stash(), typically in 80 the CPU's cleanup_before_linux() function. You can use the 81 'bootstage stash' and 'bootstage unstash' commands to do this on 82 the command line. 83 84config BOOTSTAGE_STASH_ADDR 85 hex "Address to stash boot timing information" 86 default 0 87 help 88 Provide an address which will not be overwritten by the OS when it 89 starts, so that it can read this information when ready. 90 91config BOOTSTAGE_STASH_SIZE 92 hex "Size of boot timing stash region" 93 default 4096 94 help 95 This should be large enough to hold the bootstage stash. A value of 96 4096 (4KiB) is normally plenty. 97 98endmenu 99 100config CONSOLE_RECORD 101 bool "Console recording" 102 help 103 This provides a way to record console output (and provide console 104 input) through cirular buffers. This is mostly useful for testing. 105 Console output is recorded even when the console is silent. 106 To enable console recording, call console_record_reset_enable() 107 from your code. 108 109config CONSOLE_RECORD_OUT_SIZE 110 hex "Output buffer size" 111 depends on CONSOLE_RECORD 112 default 0x400 if CONSOLE_RECORD 113 help 114 Set the size of the console output buffer. When this fills up, no 115 more data will be recorded until some is removed. The buffer is 116 allocated immediately after the malloc() region is ready. 117 118config CONSOLE_RECORD_IN_SIZE 119 hex "Input buffer size" 120 depends on CONSOLE_RECORD 121 default 0x100 if CONSOLE_RECORD 122 help 123 Set the size of the console input buffer. When this contains data, 124 tstc() and getc() will use this in preference to real device input. 125 The buffer is allocated immediately after the malloc() region is 126 ready. 127
