1config BLK
2	bool "Support block devices"
3	depends on DM
4	default y if DM_MMC
5	help
6	  Enable support for block devices, such as SCSI, MMC and USB
7	  flash sticks. These provide a block-level interface which permits
8	  reading, writing and (in some cases) erasing blocks. Block
9	  devices often have a partition table which allows the device to
10	  be partitioned into several areas, called 'partitions' in U-Boot.
11	  A filesystem can be placed in each partition.
12
13config HAVE_BLOCK_DEVICE
14	bool "Enable Legacy Block Device"
15	help
16	  Some devices require block support whether or not DM is enabled
17
18config SPL_BLK
19	bool "Support block devices in SPL"
20	depends on SPL_DM && BLK
21	default y
22	help
23	  Enable support for block devices, such as SCSI, MMC and USB
24	  flash sticks. These provide a block-level interface which permits
25	  reading, writing and (in some cases) erasing blocks. Block
26	  devices often have a partition table which allows the device to
27	  be partitioned into several areas, called 'partitions' in U-Boot.
28	  A filesystem can be placed in each partition.

30config BLOCK_CACHE
31	bool "Use block device cache"
32	depends on BLK
33	default y
34	help
35	  This option enables a disk-block cache for all block devices.
36	  This is most useful when accessing filesystems under U-Boot since
37	  it will prevent repeated reads from directory structures and other
38	  filesystem data structures.
39
40config IDE
41	bool "Support IDE controllers"
42	select HAVE_BLOCK_DEVICE
43	help
44	  Enables support for IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) hard drives.
45	  This allows access to raw blocks and filesystems on an IDE drive
46	  from U-Boot. See also CMD_IDE which provides an 'ide' command for
47	  performing various IDE operations.
