8 Summary:
9 ========
10
11 This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
12 Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
13 processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
14 initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
15 code.
16
17 The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
18 the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
19 header files in common, and special provision has been made to
20 support booting of Linux images.
21
22 Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
23 configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
24 implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
25 add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
26 code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
27 load and run it dynamically.
28
29
30 Status:
31 =======
32
33 In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
34 Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
35 "working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.
36
37 In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out
38 who contributed the specific port. The boards.cfg file lists board
39 maintainers.
40
41 Note: There is no CHANGELOG file in the actual U-Boot source tree;
42 it can be created dynamically from the Git log using:
43
44 make CHANGELOG

227 Software Configuration:
228 =======================
229
230 Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
231 rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
232
233 There are two classes of configuration variables:
234
235 * Configuration _OPTIONS_:
236 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
237 "CONFIG_".
238
239 * Configuration _SETTINGS_:
240 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
241 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
242 "CONFIG_SYS_".
243
244 Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
245 identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
246 do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
247 links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
248 as an example here.
249
250
251 Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
252 ---------------------------------------------------
253
254 For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
255 configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
256
257 Example: For a TQM823L module type:
258
259 cd u-boot
260 make TQM823L_config
261
262 For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
263 e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
264 directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
265
266
267 Sandbox Environment:
268 --------------------
269
270 U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox'
271 board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture-
272 specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to
273 run some of U-Boot's tests.
274
275 See board/sandbox/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details.
276
277
278 Configuration Options:
279 ----------------------
280
281 Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
282 such information is kept in a configuration file
283 "include/configs/<board_name>.h".
284
285 Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
286 "include/configs/TQM823L.h".
287
288
289 Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
290 kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
291 build a config tool - later.
292
293
294 The following options need to be configured:
295
296 - CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
297
298 - Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
299
300 - CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
301 Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
302
303 - CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
304 Define exactly one of
305 CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
306 --- FIXME --- not tested yet:
307 CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
308 CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
309
310 - Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
311 Define exactly one of
312 CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
313
314 - Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
315 Define one or more of
316 CONFIG_CMA302
317
318 - Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
319 Define one or more of
320 CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on
321 the LCD display every second with
322 a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
323
324 - Marvell Family Member
325 CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable
326 multiple fs option at one time
327 for marvell soc family
328
329 - MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
330 Define exactly one of
331 CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
332
333 - 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
334 CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if
335 get_gclk_freq() cannot work
336 e.g. if there is no 32KHz
337 reference PIT/RTC clock
338 CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
339 or XTAL/EXTAL)
340
341 - 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
342 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
343 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
344 CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
345 See doc/README.MPC866
346
347 CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
348
349 Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
350 of relying on the correctness of the configured
351 values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
352 the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
353 that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
354 RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
355
356 CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
357
358 Define this option if you want to enable the
359 ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
360
361 - 85xx CPU Options:
362 CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
363
364 Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
365 the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
366 compliance, among other possible reasons.
367
368 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
369
370 Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
371 system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
372 devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
373
374 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
375
376 Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
377 tree nodes for the given platform.
378
379 CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
380
381 Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
382 around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
383 support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
384 breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this
385 symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
386 purpose.
387
388 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
389
390 Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set,
391 then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
392 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
393
394 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
395 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
396
397 Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
398 for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
399
400 The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
401 of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
402 p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
403 whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
404
405 See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
406 this erratum.
407
408 CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
409 Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
410 requred during NOR boot.
411
412 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
413
414 This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
415 according to the A004510 workaround.
416
417 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
418 This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
419 connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
420
421 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
422 This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
423 which is directly connected to the DSP core.
424
425 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
426 This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
427 connected to the DSP core.
428
429 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
430 This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
431
432 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
433 Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
434 In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
435 clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
436
437 CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F
438 This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the
439 time of U-boot entry and is required to be re-initialized.
440
441 CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP
442 Inidcates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is
443 supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up.
444
445 - Generic CPU options:
446 CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA
447 Defines global data is initialized in generic board board_init_f().
448 If this macro is defined, global data is created and cleared in
449 generic board board_init_f(). Without this macro, architecture/board
450 should initialize global data before calling board_init_f().
451
452 CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
453
454 Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
455 values is arch specific.
456

565 See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h.
566 Possible values are:
567 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA
568 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA
569 CONF_CM_UNCACHED
570 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT
571 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE
572 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW
573 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW
574 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
575
576 CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
577
578 Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
579 See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
580
581 CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
582
583 Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
584 XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
585 be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
586
587 - ARM options:
588 CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
589
590 Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
591 clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
592
593 CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
594
595 Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
596 set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
597 better code density. For ARM architectures that support
598 Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
599 GCC.
600
601 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
602 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
603 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
604 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
605 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072
606 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_761320
607
608 If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
609 during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
610 workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
611 exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
612 set these options unless they apply!
613
614 - CPU timer options:
615 CONFIG_SYS_HZ
616
617 The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer().
618 get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG
619 option must be set to 1000.
620
621 - Linux Kernel Interface:
622 CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
623
624 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
625 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
626 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
627 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
628 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
629 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
630 Linux kernel.
631 When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
632 "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
633 default environment.
634
635 CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only]
636
637 When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions
638 expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
639 Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
640
641 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
642
643 New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
644 passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
645 concepts).
646
647 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
648 * New libfdt-based support
649 * Adds the "fdt" command
650 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
651
652 OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
653 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
654 OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
655 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
656 OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
657 OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
658
659 boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
660 addresses
661
662 CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
663
664 Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
665 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
666
667 CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
668
669 This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
670 param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
671
672 CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
673
674 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
675 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
676 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
677 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
678 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
679 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
680
681 CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
682
683 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
684 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
685 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
686 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
687 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
688 in a single configuration file and the machine type is
689 runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
690
691 - vxWorks boot parameters:
692
693 bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
694 environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
695 It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
696
697 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
698 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
699 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
700 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
701
702 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
703
704 Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
705
706 Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
707 the defaults discussed just above.
708
709 - Cache Configuration:
710 CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
711 CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
712 CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
713
714 - Cache Configuration for ARM:
715 CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
716 controller
717 CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
718 controller register space
719
720 - Serial Ports:
721 CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
722
723 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
724
725 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
726
727 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
728
729 CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
730
731 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
732 the clock speed of the UARTs.
733
734 CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
735
736 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
737 define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
738 port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
739
740 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
741
742 Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
743 have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set
744 this variable to initialize the extra register.
745
746 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
747
748 On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
749 boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this
750 variable to flush the UART at init time.
751
752 CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
753
754 Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
755 Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
756
757 - Console Interface:
758 Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
759 (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
760 CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
761 console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
762
763 Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
764 port routines must be defined elsewhere
765 (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
766
767 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
768 Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
769 defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
770 VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation
771 (default big endian)
772 VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports
773 rectangle fill
774 (cf. smiLynxEM)
775 VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports
776 bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
777 VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns
778 (cols=pitch)
779 VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows
780 VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel
781 VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format
782 (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
783 VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address
784 VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct
785 (i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
786 VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct
787 (i.e. i8042_tstc)
788 VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct
789 (i.e. i8042_getc)
790 CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR cursor drawing on/off
791 (requires blink timer
792 cf. i8042.c)
793 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
794 CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME display time/date info in
795 upper right corner
796 (requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
797 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in
798 upper left corner
799 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of
800 linux_logo.h for logo.
801 Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
802 CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
803 additional board info beside
804 the logo
805
806 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
807 a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
808 erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
809
810 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
811 default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
812 environment 'console=serial'.
813
814 When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
815 messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
816 the "silent" environment variable. See
817 doc/README.silent for more information.
818
819 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
820 is 0x00.
821 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
822 is 0xa0.
823
824 - Console Baudrate:
825 CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
826 Select one of the baudrates listed in
827 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
828 CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
829
830 - Console Rx buffer length
831 With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
832 the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
833 This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
834 If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
835 must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
836 the SMC.
837
838 - Pre-Console Buffer:
839 Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
840 initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
841 Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
842 buffer any console messages prior to the console being
843 initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
844 bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
845 a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
846 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
847 earlier bytes are discarded.
848
849 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
850 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
851
852 - Safe printf() functions
853 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
854 the printf() functions. These are defined in
855 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
856 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
857 If this option is not given then these functions will
858 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
859 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
860
861 - Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
862 Delay before automatically booting the default image;
863 set to -1 to disable autoboot.
864 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
865 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
866
867 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
868 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
869 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
870 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
871 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
872 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
873 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
874 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
875 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
876 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
877 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
878 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
879
880 - Autoboot Command:
881 CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
882 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
883 define a command string that is automatically executed
884 when no character is read on the console interface
885 within "Boot Delay" after reset.
886
887 CONFIG_BOOTARGS
888 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
889 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
890 environment value "bootargs".
891
892 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
893 The value of these goes into the environment as
894 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
895 as a convenience, when switching between booting from
896 RAM and NFS.
897
898 - Bootcount:
899 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
900 Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
901 cycle, see:
902 http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
903
904 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
905 If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
906 "bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
907 saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
908 "upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
909 0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
910 1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
911 So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
912 and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
913
914 - Pre-Boot Commands:
915 CONFIG_PREBOOT
916
917 When this option is #defined, the existence of the
918 environment variable "preboot" will be checked
919 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
920 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
921 entering interactive mode.
922
923 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
924 automatically generated or modified. For an example
925 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
926 modified when the user holds down a certain
927 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
928 booting the systems
929
930 - Serial Download Echo Mode:
931 CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
932 If defined to 1, all characters received during a
933 serial download (using the "loads" command) are
934 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
935 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
936 time on others. This setting #define's the initial
937 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
938
939 - Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
940 CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
941 Select one of the baudrates listed in
942 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
943
944 - Monitor Functions:
945 Monitor commands can be included or excluded
946 from the build by using the #include files
947 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
948 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
949 and augmenting with additional #define's
950 for wanted commands.
951
952 The default command configuration includes all commands
953 except those marked below with a "*".

1061 EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
1062 support you can write:
1063
1064 #include "config_cmd_all.h"
1065 #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1066
1067 Other Commands:
1068 fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1069
1070 Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1071 (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1072 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1073 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1074 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1075 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1076 systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1077 initial stack and some data.
1078
1079
1080 XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1081
1082 - Regular expression support:
1083 CONFIG_REGEX
1084 If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1085 the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1086 which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1087 example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1088
1089 - Device tree:
1090 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1091 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1092 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1093 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1094 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1095 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1096
1097 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1098 be done using one of the two options below:
1099
1100 CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1101 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1102 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1103 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1104 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1105 the global data structure as gd->blob.
1106
1107 CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1108 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1109 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1110 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1111
1112 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1113
1114 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1115 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1116 still use the individual files if you need something more
1117 exotic.
1118
1119 - Watchdog:
1120 CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1121 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1122 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1123 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1124 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1125 register. When supported for a specific SoC is
1126 available, then no further board specific code should
1127 be needed to use it.
1128
1129 CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1130 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1131 SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1132 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1133
1134 - U-Boot Version:
1135 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1136 If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1137 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1138 version as printed by the "version" command.
1139 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1140 next reset.
1141
1142 - Real-Time Clock:
1143
1144 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1145 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1146 following options:
1147
1148 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1149 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1150 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1151 CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC
1152 CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1153 CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1154 CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1155 CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC
1156 CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1157 CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1158 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1159 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on
1160 RV3029 RTC.
1161
1162 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1163 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1164
1165 - GPIO Support:
1166 CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1167
1168 The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1169 chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1170 pins supported by a particular chip.
1171
1172 Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1173 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1174
1175 - I/O tracing:
1176 When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
1177 accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
1178 to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
1179 useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
1180 the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
1181 change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
1182 add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
1183 to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
1184
1185 Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
1186 Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
1187 still continue to operate.
1188
1189 iotrace is enabled
1190 Start: 10000000 (buffer start address)
1191 Size: 00010000 (buffer size)
1192 Offset: 00000120 (current buffer offset)
1193 Output: 10000120 (start + offset)
1194 Count: 00000018 (number of trace records)
1195 CRC32: 9526fb66 (CRC32 of all trace records)
1196
1197 - Timestamp Support:
1198
1199 When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1200 (date and time) of an image is printed by image
1201 commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1202 automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1203
1204 - Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1205 Zero or more of the following:
1206 CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table.

1209 CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1210 CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1211 bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see
1212 disk/part_efi.c
1213 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table.
1214
1215 If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1216 CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1217 least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1218
1219 - IDE Reset method:
1220 CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1221 board configurations files but used nowhere!
1222
1223 CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1224 be performed by calling the function
1225 ide_set_reset(int reset)
1226 which has to be defined in a board specific file
1227
1228 - ATAPI Support:
1229 CONFIG_ATAPI
1230
1231 Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1232
1233 - LBA48 Support
1234 CONFIG_LBA48
1235
1236 Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1237 Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1238 Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1239 support disks up to 2.1TB.
1240
1241 CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1242 When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1243 Default is 32bit.
1244

1248 CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
1249
1250 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1251 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1252 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1253 maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1254 devices.
1255 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1256

1345 Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY.
1346 Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY.
1347 If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur
1348 wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or
1349 useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit
1350 control registers. This behavior won't affect the
1351 correctnessof 10/100 link speed update.

1426 CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it.
1427 define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard
1428 and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB
1429 storage devices.
1430 Note:
1431 Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
1432 (TEAC FD-05PUB).
1433 MPC5200 USB requires additional defines:

1445 instead of using asynchronous interrupts
1446
1447 CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
1448 txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
1449
1450 - USB Device:
1451 Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1452 Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1453 command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1454 attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1455 it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1456 can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1457 appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1458 Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1459 If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1460 a Linux host by
1461 # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1462 else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1463 variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1464 might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1465
1466 CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1467 Define this to build a UDC device
1468
1469 CONFIG_USB_TTY
1470 Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1471 talk to the UDC device
1472
1473 CONFIG_USBD_HS
1474 Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1475 device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1476 int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1477 also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1478 whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1479 speed.
1480
1481 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1482 Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1483 be set to usbtty.
1484
1485 mpc8xx:
1486 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH

1488 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02
1489
1490 CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH
1491 Derive USB clock from brgclk
1492 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
1493
1494 If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1495 define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1496 or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1497 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1498 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1499 should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1500
1501 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1502 Define this string as the name of your company for
1503 - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1504
1505 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1506 Define this string as the name of your product
1507 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1508
1509 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1510 Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1511 Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1512 to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1513 - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1514
1515 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1516 Define this as the unique Product ID
1517 for your device
1518 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1519
1520 - ULPI Layer Support:
1521 The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1522 the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1523 via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1524 the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1525 viewport is supported.
1526 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1527 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1528 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1529 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1530 the appropriate value in Hz.
1531
1532 - MMC Support:
1533 The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1534 enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1535 accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1536 to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1537 enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1538 the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1539
1540 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1541 Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1542
1543 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR

1556 Enable the commands for reading, writing and programming the
1557 key for the Replay Protection Memory Block partition in eMMC.
1558
1559 - USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support:
1560 CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION
1561 This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1562
1563 CONFIG_CMD_DFU
1564 This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have
1565 U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB. This command
1566 requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1567 set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1568
1569 CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1570 This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1571
1572 CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1573 This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1574
1575 CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1576 This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1577 Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1578 allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1579 one that would help mostly the developer.
1580
1581 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1582 Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1583 raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1584 configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1585 through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1586
1587 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1588 When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1589 we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1590 the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define
1591 this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1592 Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1593
1594 DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1595 Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1596 host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1597 a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1598
1599 DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1600 Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1601 entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1602 sending again an USB request to the device.
1603
1604 - USB Device Android Fastboot support:
1605 CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT
1606 This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android
1607 fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB
1608 protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control
1609 used on Android devices.
1610 See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information.
1611
1612 CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE
1613 This enables support for booting images which use the Android
1614 image format header.
1615
1616 CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR
1617 The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1618 downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for
1619 downloaded images.
1620
1621 CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE
1622 The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1623 downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a
1624 platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot.
1625
1626 - Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1627 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
1628 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
1629 Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1630
1631 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1632 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1633 Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1634
1635 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
1636 Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1637 function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1638
1639 If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1640 #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1
1641 to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1642 have not defined a custom partition
1643
1644 - FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1645 CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1646
1647 Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1648 file in FAT formatted partition.
1649
1650 This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1651 user to write files to FAT.
1652
1653 CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1654 CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1655
1656 Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1657 filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
1658 and cbfsload.
1659
1660 - FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size:
1661 CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE
1662
1663 Define the max cluster size for fat operations else
1664 a default value of 65536 will be defined.
1665
1666 - Keyboard Support:
1667 CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
1668
1669 Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
1670 support
1671
1672 CONFIG_I8042_KBD
1673 Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
1674 GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
1675 Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
1676 for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
1677
1678 CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB
1679 Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface.
1680 This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller
1681 which provides key scans on request.
1682
1683 - Video support:
1684 CONFIG_VIDEO
1685
1686 Define this to enable video support (for output to
1687 video).
1688
1689 CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
1690
1691 Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
1692
1693 CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1694 Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1695 video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1696 (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1697 assumed.
1698
1699 For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1700 selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1701 are possible:
1702 - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
1703 Following standard modes are supported (* is default):
1704
1705 Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
1706 -------------+---------------------------------------------
1707 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307
1708 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319
1709 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A
1710 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B
1711 -------------+---------------------------------------------
1712 (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1713
1714 - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1715 from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1716
1717
1718 CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1719 Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1720 and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1721 or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1722
1723 CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1724 Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for
1725 SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1726 support, and should also define these other macros:
1727
1728 CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1729 CONFIG_VIDEO
1730 CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1731 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1732 CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1733 CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1734 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1735 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1736
1737 The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1738 variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1739 boot. See the documentation file README.video for a
1740 description of this variable.
1741
1742 CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
1743
1744 Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1745 are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1746 driver.
1747
1748
1749 - Keyboard Support:
1750 CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1751
1752 Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1753 This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1754 defined in your board-specific files.
1755 The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1756
1757 - LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD
1758
1759 Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1760 display); also select one of the supported displays
1761 by defining one of these:
1762
1763 CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1764
1765 HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1766
1767 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1768
1769 NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1770
1771 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1772
1773 NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1774 Active, color, single scan.
1775
1776 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1777
1778 NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1779 Active, color, single scan.
1780
1781 CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1782
1783 Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1784 It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1785
1786 CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1787
1788 Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1789 Active, color, single scan.
1790
1791 CONFIG_HLD1045
1792
1793 HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1794 Active, color, single scan.
1795
1796 CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1797
1798 Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1799 or
1800 Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T
1801 or
1802 Hitachi SP14Q002
1803
1804 320x240. Black & white.
1805
1806 Normally display is black on white background; define
1807 CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1808
1809 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1810
1811 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1812 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1813 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1814 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1815 a per-section basis.
1816
1817 CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1818
1819 When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1820 lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1821 the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1822 is slow.
1823
1824 CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1825
1826 Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1827
1828 CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1829
1830 Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1831 information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1832
1833 - Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1834
1835 If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1836 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1837 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1838 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1839 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1840 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1841 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1842 loaded very quickly after power-on.
1843
1844 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1845
1846 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1847 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1848 (see README.displaying-bmps).
1849 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1850 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1851 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1852 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1853 there is no need to set this option.
1854
1855 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1856
1857 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1858 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1859 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1860 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1861 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1862 specify 'm' for centering the image.
1863
1864 Example:
1865 setenv splashpos m,m
1866 => image at center of screen
1867
1868 setenv splashpos 30,20
1869 => image at x = 30 and y = 20
1870
1871 setenv splashpos -10,m
1872 => vertically centered image
1873 at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1874
1875 - Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1876
1877 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1878 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1879 splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1880
1881 - Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1882
1883 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1884 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1885 bmp command.
1886
1887 - Do compresssing for memory range:
1888 CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1889
1890 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1891 to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1892
1893 - Compression support:
1894 CONFIG_GZIP
1895
1896 Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1897
1898 CONFIG_BZIP2
1899
1900 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1901 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1902 compressed images are supported.
1903
1904 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1905 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1906 be at least 4MB.
1907
1908 CONFIG_LZMA
1909
1910 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1911 images is included.
1912
1913 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1914 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1915 formula:
1916
1917 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1918
1919 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1920 and Literal pos bits.
1921
1922 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1923 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1924 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1925 a very small buffer.
1926
1927 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1928 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1929 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1930
1931 CONFIG_LZO
1932
1933 If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
1934 is included.
1935
1936 - MII/PHY support:
1937 CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1938
1939 The address of PHY on MII bus.
1940
1941 CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1942
1943 The clock frequency of the MII bus
1944
1945 CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
1946
1947 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1948 detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1949
1950 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1951
1952 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1953 reset before any MII register access is possible.
1954 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1955 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1956
1957 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1958
1959 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1960 command issued before MII status register can be read
1961
1962 - Ethernet address:
1963 CONFIG_ETHADDR
1964 CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
1965 CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
1966 CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
1967 CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
1968 CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
1969
1970 Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1971 for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
1972 is not determined automatically.
1973
1974 - IP address:
1975 CONFIG_IPADDR
1976
1977 Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1978 the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1979 determined through e.g. bootp.
1980 (Environment variable "ipaddr")
1981
1982 - Server IP address:
1983 CONFIG_SERVERIP
1984
1985 Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1986 server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1987 (Environment variable "serverip")
1988
1989 CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1990
1991 Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1992 for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1993
1994 - Gateway IP address:
1995 CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
1996
1997 Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1998 default router where packets to other networks are
1999 sent to.
2000 (Environment variable "gatewayip")
2001
2002 - Subnet mask:
2003 CONFIG_NETMASK
2004
2005 Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
2006 routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
2007 address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
2008 forwarded through a router.
2009 (Environment variable "netmask")
2010
2011 - Multicast TFTP Mode:
2012 CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
2013
2014 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
2015 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets
2016 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet
2017 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
2018 multicast group.
2019
2020 - BOOTP Recovery Mode:
2021 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
2022
2023 If you have many targets in a network that try to
2024 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
2025 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
2026 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
2027 from a power failure, when all systems will try to
2028 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
2029 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
2030 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
2031 following delays are inserted then:
2032
2033 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec
2034 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec
2035 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec
2036 4th and following
2037 BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec
2038
2039 - DHCP Advanced Options:
2040 You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
2041 CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
2042
2043 CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
2044 CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
2045 CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
2046 CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
2047 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
2048 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
2049 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2050 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
2051 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
2052 CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
2053 CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
2054 CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
2055 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
2056
2057 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
2058 environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
2059
2060 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
2061 after the configured retry count, the call will fail
2062 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over
2063 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
2064 is not available.
2065
2066 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
2067 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
2068 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
2069 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
2070 serverip will be stored in the additional environment
2071 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
2072 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
2073 is defined.
2074
2075 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
2076 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
2077 need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
2078 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
2079 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
2080 option 12 to the DHCP server.
2081
2082 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
2083
2084 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
2085 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
2086 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
2087 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
2088 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
2089 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
2090 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
2091 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
2092 that one of the retries will be successful but note that
2093 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
2094 this delay.
2095
2096 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
2097 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
2098 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
2099 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
2100 to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
2101
2102 See doc/README.link-local for more information.
2103
2104 - CDP Options:
2105 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
2106
2107 The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
2108
2109 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
2110
2111 A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
2112 of the device.
2113
2114 CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
2115
2116 A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
2117 the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
2118 eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
2119
2120 CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
2121
2122 A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
2123 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
2124
2125 CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
2126
2127 An ascii string containing the version of the software.
2128
2129 CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
2130
2131 An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
2132
2133 CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
2134
2135 A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
2136
2137 CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
2138
2139 A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
2140 device in .1 of milliwatts.
2141
2142 CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
2143
2144 A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
2145
2146 - Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2147
2148 Several configurations allow to display the current
2149 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2150 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2151 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2152 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2153 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2154 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2155 feature in U-Boot.
2156
2157 Additional options:
2158
2159 CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2160 The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2161 In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2162 status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2163 to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2164
2165 CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2166 Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2167 case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2168 GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2169 In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2170 with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2171
2172 - CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2173
2174 Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
2175 on those systems that support this (optional)
2176 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2177
2178 - I2C Support: CONFIG_SYS_I2C
2179
2180 This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
2181 i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
2182 CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
2183 based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
2184 common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
2185 interface.
2186
2187 ported i2c driver to the new framework:

2305
2306 additional defines:
2307
2308 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2309 Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
2310 don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2311 is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2312 omit this define.
2313
2314 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2315 define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2316 if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2317 omit this define.
2318
2319 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2320 define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2321 on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2322 define.
2323
2324 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2325 hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2326 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2327 a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2328 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2329
2330 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES {{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2331 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2332 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2333 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2334 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2335 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2336 {1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2337 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \
2338 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2339 }
2340
2341 which defines
2342 bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
2343 bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
2344 bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2
2345 bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3
2346 bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4
2347 bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5
2348 bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux
2349 bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1
2350 bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2351
2352 If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2353
2354 - Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2355
2356 NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2357 provides the following compelling advantages:
2358
2359 - more than one i2c adapter is usable
2360 - approved multibus support
2361 - better i2c mux support
2362
2363 ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2364
2365 These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2366 CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2367 for the selected CPU.
2368
2369 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2370 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2371 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2372 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2373 command line interface.
2374
2375 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2376
2377 There are several other quantities that must also be
2378 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2379
2380 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2381 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2382 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2383 the CPU's i2c node address).
2384
2385 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2386 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2387 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2388 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2389 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2390
2391 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2392
2393 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2394 chips might think that the current transfer is still
2395 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start
2396 commands until the slave device responds.
2397
2398 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2399
2400 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2401 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2402 from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2403
2404 I2C_INIT
2405
2406 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2407 controller or configure ports.
2408
2409 eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL)
2410
2411 I2C_PORT
2412
2413 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2414 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2415 are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2416
2417 I2C_ACTIVE
2418
2419 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2420 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this
2421 define can be null.
2422
2423 eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA)
2424
2425 I2C_TRISTATE
2426
2427 The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2428 (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this
2429 define can be null.
2430
2431 eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2432
2433 I2C_READ
2434
2435 Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2436 false if it is low.
2437
2438 eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2439
2440 I2C_SDA(bit)
2441
2442 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2443 is false, it clears it (low).
2444
2445 eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2446 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \
2447 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2448
2449 I2C_SCL(bit)
2450
2451 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2452 is false, it clears it (low).
2453
2454 eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2455 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \
2456 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2457
2458 I2C_DELAY
2459
2460 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2461 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus
2462 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2463 like:
2464
2465 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2)
2466
2467 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2468
2469 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2470 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2471 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2472 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2473
2474 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2475 the generic GPIO functions.
2476
2477 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2478
2479 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2480 chips might think that the current transfer is still
2481 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2482 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2483 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2484 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2485 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2486 is run early in the boot sequence.
2487
2488 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2489
2490 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2491 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2492 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2493 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2494 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2495 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2496 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2497 controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2498
2499 CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2500
2501 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2502 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2503 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2504
2505 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2506
2507 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2508 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is
2509 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2510 Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2511
2512 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2513
2514 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2515 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2516 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify
2517 a 1D array of device addresses
2518
2519 e.g.
2520 #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2521 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2522
2523 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2524
2525 #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2526 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2527
2528 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2529
2530 CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2531
2532 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2533 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2534
2535 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2536
2537 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2538 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2539
2540 CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2541
2542 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2543 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2544
2545 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2546
2547 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2548 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2549 specified DTT device.
2550
2551 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2552
2553 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2554 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2555 between writing the address pointer and reading the
2556 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2557 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C
2558 devices can use either method, but some require one or
2559 the other.
2560
2561 - SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI
2562
2563 Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2564 SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2565 D/As on the SACSng board)
2566
2567 CONFIG_SH_SPI
2568
2569 Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2570 only SH7757 is supported.
2571
2572 CONFIG_SPI_X
2573
2574 Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2575 (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2576
2577 CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2578
2579 Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2580 using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2581 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2582 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2583 defined, the board configuration must define several
2584 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2585 an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2586
2587 CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2588
2589 Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2590 and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2591 must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2592 Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an
2593 example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2594
2595 CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2596
2597 Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2598 SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2599
2600 - FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2601
2602 Enables FPGA subsystem.
2603
2604 CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2605
2606 Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2607 (ALTERA, XILINX)
2608
2609 CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2610
2611 Enables support for FPGA family.
2612 (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2613
2614 CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2615
2616 Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2617
2618 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK
2619
2620 Enable support for fpga loadmk command
2621
2622 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP
2623
2624 Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream
2625
2626 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP
2627
2628 Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream
2629 (Xilinx only)
2630
2631 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2632
2633 Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2634
2635 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2636
2637 Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2638 status by the configuration function. This option
2639 will require a board or device specific function to
2640 be written.
2641
2642 CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2643
2644 If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2645 configuration driver.
2646
2647 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2648 Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2649
2650 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2651
2652 Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2653 loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2654 configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2655 indicated a CRC error).
2656
2657 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2658
2659 Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2660 after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2661 FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2662 ms.
2663
2664 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2665
2666 Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2667 Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2668
2669 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2670
2671 Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2672 200 ms.
2673
2674 - Configuration Management:
2675 CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2676
2677 If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2678 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2679
2680 - Vendor Parameter Protection:
2681
2682 U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2683 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2684 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2685 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2686 protects these variables from casual modification by
2687 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2688 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2689 change this behaviour:
2690
2691 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2692 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2693 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2694 these parameters.
2695
2696 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2697 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2698 Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2699 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2700 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2701 read-only.]
2702
2703 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2704 for any variable by configuring the type of access
2705 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2706 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2707
2708 - Protected RAM:
2709 CONFIG_PRAM
2710
2711 Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2712 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2713 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2714 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2715 this default value by defining an environment
2716 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2717 reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2718 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2719 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2720 automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2721 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2722 argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2723
2724 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2725 saveenv
2726
2727 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2728 either, which results in a memory region that will
2729 not be affected by reboots.
2730
2731 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2732 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2733 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2734 following board configurations are known to be
2735 "pRAM-clean":
2736
2737 IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2738 HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2739 FLAGADM, TQM8260
2740
2741 - Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2742 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2743 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2744 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2745 machines using physical address extension or similar.
2746 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2747 currently only supports clearing the memory.
2748
2749 - Error Recovery:
2750 CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2751
2752 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2753 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2754 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2755 system where you want the system to reboot
2756 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2757 useful during development since you can try to debug
2758 the conditions that lead to the situation.
2759
2760 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2761
2762 This variable defines the number of retries for
2763 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2764 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2765 default value of 5 is used.
2766
2767 CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2768
2769 Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2770
2771 CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2772
2773 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2774 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2775 try longer timeout such as
2776 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2777
2778 - Command Interpreter:
2779 CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2780
2781 Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2782
2783 Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2784 for the "hush" shell.
2785
2786
2787 CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2788
2789 Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2790 Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2791 powerful command line syntax like
2792 if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2793 constructs ("shell scripts").
2794
2795 If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2796 with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2797
2798
2799 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2800
2801 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2802 printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2803 to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2804
2805 Note:
2806
2807 In the current implementation, the local variables
2808 space and global environment variables space are
2809 separated. Local variables are those you define by
2810 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2811 variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2812 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2813 directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2814
2815 Global environment variables are those you use
2816 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2817 in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2818 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2819
2820 To store commands and special characters in a
2821 variable, please use double quotation marks
2822 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2823 of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2824 symbols.
2825
2826 - Commandline Editing and History:
2827 CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2828
2829 Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2830 commandline input operations
2831
2832 - Default Environment:
2833 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2834
2835 Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2836 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2837 the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2838
2839 For example, place something like this in your
2840 board's config file:
2841
2842 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2843 "myvar1=value1\0" \
2844 "myvar2=value2\0"
2845
2846 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2847 internal format how the environment is stored by the
2848 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2849 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2850 will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2851 You better know what you are doing here.
2852
2853 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2854 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2855 the environment like the "source" command or the
2856 boot command first.
2857
2858 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2859
2860 Define this in order to add variables describing the
2861 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2862 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2863
2864 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2865
2866 - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2867 - CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2868 - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2869 - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2870 - CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2871
2872 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2873
2874 Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2875 run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2876 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2877
2878 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2879
2880 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2881 intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2882 that so that the environment is not available until
2883 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2884 this is instead controlled by the value of
2885 /config/load-environment.
2886
2887 - DataFlash Support:
2888 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2889
2890 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2891 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2892 commands cp, md...
2893
2894 - Serial Flash support
2895 CONFIG_CMD_SF
2896
2897 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2898 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2899
2900 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2901 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2902 commands.
2903
2904 The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2905 to handle the common case when only a single serial
2906 flash is present on the system.
2907
2908 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier
2909 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select
2910 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h)
2911 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz
2912
2913 CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2914
2915 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2916 test ('sf test').
2917
2918 CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2919
2920 Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2921 support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2922
2923 CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH Dual flash memories
2924
2925 Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
2926 memories can be connected with a given cs line.
2927 currently Xilinx Zynq qspi support these type of connections.
2928
2929 - SystemACE Support:
2930 CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2931
2932 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2933 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2934 of the chip must also be defined in the
2935 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2936
2937 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2938 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2939
2940 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2941 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2942
2943 - TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2944 CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2945
2946 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2947 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2948 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2949 number generator is used.
2950
2951 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2952 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't
2953 defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2954
2955 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2956 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2957 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2958 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2959 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2960 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2961 but sometimes that is not allowed.
2962
2963 - Hashing support:
2964 CONFIG_CMD_HASH
2965
2966 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2967 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2968
2969 CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
2970
2971 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2972 size a little.
2973
2974 CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2975 CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2976
2977 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2978 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2979
2980 - Freescale i.MX specific commands:
2981 CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
2982 This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
2983 HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific.
2984
2985 CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
2986 This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
2987 a boot from specific media.
2988
2989 This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
2990 activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
2991 on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal
2992 will set it back to normal. This command currently
2993 supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
2994
2995 - Signing support:
2996 CONFIG_RSA
2997
2998 This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
2999 in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
3000
3001 The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
3002 option.
3003
3004 - bootcount support:
3005 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
3006
3007 This enables the bootcounter support, see:
3008 http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
3009
3010 CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
3011 enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
3012 CONFIG_BLACKFIN
3013 enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
3014 CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
3015 enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
3016 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
3017 enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
3018 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
3019 enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
3020 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
3021 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
3022 the bootcounter.
3023 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
3024
3025 - Show boot progress:
3026 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
3027
3028 Defining this option allows to add some board-
3029 specific code (calling a user-provided function
3030 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
3031 the system's boot progress on some display (for
3032 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
3033 the following checkpoints are implemented:
3034
3035 - Detailed boot stage timing
3036 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
3037 Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
3038 of the boot process.
3039
3040 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
3041 This is the number of available user bootstage records.
3042 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
3043 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
3044 the limit, recording will stop.
3045
3046 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
3047 Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
3048
3049 Timer summary in microseconds:
3050 Mark Elapsed Stage
3051 0 0 reset
3052 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start
3053 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9
3054 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done
3055 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start
3056 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop
3057 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start
3058 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel
3059
3060 CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
3061 Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
3062 and un/stashing of bootstage data.
3063
3064 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
3065 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
3066 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
3067 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
3068 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
3069 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
3070 For example:
3071
3072 bootstage {
3073 154 {
3074 name = "board_init_f";
3075 mark = <3575678>;
3076 };
3077 170 {
3078 name = "lcd";
3079 accum = <33482>;
3080 };
3081 };
3082
3083 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

3238 - legacy image format:
3239 CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3240 enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
3241
3242 Default:
3243 enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
3244
3245 CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
3246 disable the legacy image format
3247
3248 This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
3249 enabled per default for backward compatibility.
3250
3251 - FIT image support:
3252 CONFIG_FIT
3253 Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
3254
3255 CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3256 When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3257 one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3258 U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3259 most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3260 The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3261
3262 CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
3263 This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
3264 using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See
3265 doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
3266
3267 WARNING: When relying on signed FIT images with required
3268 signature check the legacy image format is default
3269 disabled. If a board need legacy image format support
3270 enable this through CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
3271
3272 - Standalone program support:
3273 CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3274
3275 This option defines a board specific value for the
3276 address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
3277 overwriting the architecture dependent default
3278 settings.
3279
3280 - Frame Buffer Address:
3281 CONFIG_FB_ADDR
3282
3283 Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3284 address for frame buffer. This is typically the case
3285 when using a graphics controller has separate video
3286 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3287 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3288 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3289 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3290 configured panel size.
3291
3292 Please see board_init_f function.
3293
3294 - Automatic software updates via TFTP server
3295 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP

3314 CONFIG_CMD_UBI
3315
3316 Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3317 with the UBI flash translation layer
3318
3319 Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3320
3321 CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3322
3323 Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing. This leaves
3324 warnings and errors enabled.
3325
3326 - UBIFS support
3327 CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3328
3329 Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3330 UBIFS. UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3331
3332 Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3333
3334 CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3335
3336 Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing. This leaves
3337 warnings and errors enabled.

3567 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3568
3569 Modem Support:
3570 --------------
3571
3572 [so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3573
3574 - Modem support enable:
3575 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3576
3577 - RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3578 CONFIG_HWFLOW
3579
3580 - Modem debug support:
3581 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3582
3583 Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3584 for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3585
3586 - Interrupt support (PPC):
3587
3588 There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3589 for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3590 for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3591 should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3592 CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3593 (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3594 timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3595 specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3596 / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3597 general timer_interrupt().
3598
3599 - General:
3600
3601 In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3602 specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3603 power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3604 (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3605 board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3606 function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3607 initialization.
3608
3609 If there are no modem init strings in the
3610 environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3611 previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3612 suppressed, though.
3613
3614 See also: doc/README.Modem
3615
3616 Board initialization settings:
3617 ------------------------------
3618
3619 During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3620 to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3621 before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3622 following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3623 architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3624 typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3625
3626 - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3627 - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()

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

4498 CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_8K, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_8COL, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_9COL:
4499 Machine Mode Register and Memory Periodic Timer
4500 Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing)
4501
4502 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4503 enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4504 define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2]
4505
4506 - CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4507 enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4508 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1]
4509
4510 - CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4511 enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4512 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4]
4513
4514 - CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK:
4515 Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful,
4516 wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4517 doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4518
4519 - CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4520 Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4521 (Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4522 #define'd default value in commproc.h resp.
4523 cpm_8260.h.
4524
4525 - CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4526 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4531 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_IO_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_SIZE,
4532 CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only)
4533 Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
4534
4535 - CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4536 Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4537 required.
4538
4539 - CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4540 Only scan through and get the devices on the busses.
4541 Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4542 something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4543 a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4544 by coreboot or similar.
4545
4546 - CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4547 Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4548
4549 - CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
4550 Chip has SRIO or not
4551
4552 - CONFIG_SRIO1:
4553 Board has SRIO 1 port available
4554
4555 - CONFIG_SRIO2:
4556 Board has SRIO 2 port available
4557
4558 - CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER
4559 Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE
4560
4561 - CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT:
4562 Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4563
4564 - CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS:
4565 Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4566
4567 - CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE:
4568 Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region
4569
4570 - CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
4571 Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
4572 a 16 bit bus.
4573 Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
4574 Example of drivers that use it:
4575 - drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c
4576 - drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c
4577
4578 - CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG
4579 Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined
4580 a default value will be used.
4581
4582 - CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM
4583 Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common
4584 with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
4585
4586 SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
4587 I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
4588
4589 - CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
4590 If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
4591 one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
4592 to something your driver can deal with.
4593
4594 - CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4595 Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4596 soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
4597 parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
4598 header files or board specific files.
4599
4600 - CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
4601 Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4602
4603 - CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4604 Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4605 be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4606
4607 - CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4608 Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4609
4610 - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4611 Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4612 to the given FEC; i. e.
4613 #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4614 means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4615
4616 When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4617
4618 - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4619 The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4620 (so program the FEC to ignore it).
4621
4622 - CONFIG_RMII
4623 Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4624 Note that this is a global option, we can't
4625 have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4626
4627 - CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4628 Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4629 The syntax is:
4630
4631 => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4632
4633 Where address/count indicate a memory area
4634 and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4635 area should have.
4636
4637 - CONFIG_LOOPW
4638 Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4639 the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4640
4641 - CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4642 Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4643 "md/mw" commands.
4644 Examples:
4645
4646 => mdc.b 10 4 500
4647 This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4648
4649 => mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4650 This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4651
4652 This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4653 globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4654
4655 - CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4656 [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4657 low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4658 controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4659 relocate itself into RAM.
4660
4661 Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4662 exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4663 other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4664 these initializations itself.
4665
4666 - CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4667 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4668 that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4669 compiling a NAND SPL.
4670
4671 - CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4672 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4673 that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4674 It is loaded by the SPL.
4675
4676 - CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4677 Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4678 .resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4679 previous 4k of the .text section.
4680
4681 - CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4682 Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4683 effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4684 U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4685 to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4686 it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4687 addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4688 to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4689
4690 - CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4691 CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4692 If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4693 be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4694 conditions but may increase the binary size.
4695
4696 - CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4697 If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4698 needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4699
4700 - CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4701 Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4702
4703 NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4704
4705 - CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4706 Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4707
4708 - CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
4709 Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
4710 driver that uses this:
4711 drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
4712
4713 Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4714 -----------------------------------
4715
4716 The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4717 loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4718 This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4719 are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4720 within that device.
4721
4722 - CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4723 The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located. The
4724 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4725 is also specified.
4726
4727 - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
4728 The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located. The
4729 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4730 is also specified.
4731
4732 - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4733 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format
4734 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4735 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4736 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4737
4738 - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4739 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4740 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4741 virtual address in NOR flash.
4742
4743 - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4744 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4745 CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4746
4747 - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4748 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4749 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4750
4751 - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4752 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4753 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4754
4755 - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4756 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4757 memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4758 can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4759 window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4760 master's memory space.
4761
4762 Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
4763 ---------------------------------------------------------
4764 The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
4765 "firmware".
4766 This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4767 are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4768 within that device.
4769
4770 - CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
4771 Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
4772
4773 - CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR
4774 The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The
4775 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro
4776 is also specified.
4777
4778 - CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH
4779 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format
4780 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4781 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4782 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4783
4784 - CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR
4785 Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4786 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
4787 virtual address in NOR flash.
4788
4789 Building the Software:
4790 ======================
4791
4792 Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4793 and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4794 all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4795 (potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4796 recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4797 which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4798
4799 If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4800 have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4801 you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4802 Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4803 necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4804
4805 $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4806 $ export CROSS_COMPILE
4807
4808 Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4809 the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4810 (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4811 toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example:
4812
4813 $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4814
4815 Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4816 be executed on computers running Windows.
4817
4818 U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4819 sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4820 is done by typing:
4821
4822 make NAME_config
4823
4824 where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
4825 rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
4826
4827 Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4828 additional information is available from the board vendor; for
4829 instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
4830 or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
4831 when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4832
4833 make TQM823L_config
4834 - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4835
4836 make TQM823L_LCD_config
4837 - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
4838
4839 etc.
4840
4841
4842 Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
4843 images ready for download to / installation on your system:
4844
4845 - "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
4846 - "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
4847 - "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
4848
4849 By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4850 in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4851 this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4852
4853 1. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4854
4855 make O=/tmp/build distclean
4856 make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
4857 make O=/tmp/build all
4858
4859 2. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
4860
4861 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4862 make distclean
4863 make NAME_config
4864 make all
4865
4866 Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
4867 variable.
4868
4869
4870 Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
4871 for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
4872 native "make".
4873
4874
4875 If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
4876 to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
4877 steps:
4878
4879 1. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
4880 "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
4881 Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
4882 2. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
4883 files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
4884 the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
4885 3. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
4886 your board
4887 3. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
4888 directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
4889 4. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
4890 5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
4891 to be installed on your target system.
4892 6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
4893 [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
4894
4895
4896 Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
4897 ==============================================================
4898
4899 If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
4900 or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
4901 provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
4902 the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
4903 official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
4904
4905 But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
4906 cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
4907 the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
4908 just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
4909 for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
4910 select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
4911 environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
4912 you can type
4913
4914 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4915
4916 or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
4917
4918 CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
4919
4920 When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
4921 U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
4922 setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
4923 built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
4924 <target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
4925 location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
4926 variable. For example:
4927
4928 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4929 export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
4930 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4931
4932 With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
4933 log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
4934 during the whole build process.

4995
4996
4997 Environment Variables:
4998 ======================
4999
5000 U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
5001 can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
5002
5003 Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
5004 "printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
5005 without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
5006 environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
5007 working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
5008 environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
5009
5010 Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
5011
5012 List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
5013
5014 baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
5015
5016 bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
5017
5018 bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
5019
5020 bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
5021
5022 bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP
5023
5024 bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5025 command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5026 a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
5027 for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
5028 environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
5029 also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
5030 kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
5031 bootm_mapsize.
5032
5033 bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
5034 This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
5035 defines the size of the memory region starting at base
5036 address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
5037 during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
5038 as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
5039 used otherwise.
5040
5041 bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5042 command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5043 a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
5044 allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
5045 environment variable.
5046
5047 updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
5048 by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
5049 documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
5050
5051 autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
5052 "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
5053 configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
5054 load any image using TFTP
5055
5056 autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
5057 "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
5058 be automatically started (by internally calling
5059 "bootm")
5060
5061 If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
5062 "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
5063 (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
5064 This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
5065 data.
5066
5067 fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the
5068 flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
5069 For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
5070 at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
5071 only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
5072 may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
5073 device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
5074 of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
5075 access it during the boot procedure.
5076
5077 If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
5078 the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this
5079 to work it must reside in writable memory, have
5080 sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
5081 add the information it needs into it, and the memory
5082 must be accessible by the kernel.
5083
5084 fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
5085 device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
5086 defined.
5087
5088 i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
5089 if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
5090 mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
5091 initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
5092 it must be saved and board must be reset.
5093
5094 initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images:
5095 If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
5096 copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
5097 is usually what you want since it allows for
5098 maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
5099 make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
5100 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
5101 variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
5102 Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
5103 address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
5104 does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
5105
5106 For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
5107 RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
5108 you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
5109 the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
5110 sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
5111 12 MB as well - this can be done with
5112
5113 setenv initrd_high 00c00000
5114
5115 If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
5116 indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
5117 for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
5118 memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
5119 ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
5120 boot time on your system, but requires that this
5121 feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
5122
5123 ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5124
5125 loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp",
5126 "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
5127
5128 loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
5129
5130 serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
5131
5132 bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
5133
5134 bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
5135
5136 bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
5137
5138 ethprime - controls which interface is used first.
5139
5140 ethact - controls which interface is currently active.
5141 For example you can do the following
5142
5143 => setenv ethact FEC
5144 => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
5145 => setenv ethact SCC
5146 => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
5147
5148 ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
5149 available network interfaces.
5150 It just stays at the currently selected interface.
5151
5152 netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will
5153 either succeed or fail without retrying.
5154 When set to "once" the network operation will
5155 fail when all the available network interfaces
5156 are tried once without success.
5157 Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
5158 themselves.
5159
5160 npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode
5161
5162 silent_linux - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by
5163 changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
5164 made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
5165 unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
5166 is silent.
5167
5168 tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
5169 UDP source port.
5170
5171 tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
5172 destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
5173
5174 tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
5175 we use the TFTP server's default block size
5176
5177 tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
5178 seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
5179 when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
5180 be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
5181 Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
5182 faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
5183 with unreliable TFTP servers.
5184
5185 vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
5186 Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
5187 VLAN tagged frames.
5188
5189 The following image location variables contain the location of images
5190 used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
5191 not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
5192 variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
5193 server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
5194 loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
5195 flash or offset in NAND flash.
5196
5197 *Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
5198 boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
5199 boards use these variables for other purposes.
5200
5201 Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location
5202 ----- --------- ----------- --------------
5203 u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr
5204 Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr
5205 device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr
5206 ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr
5207
5208 The following environment variables may be used and automatically
5209 updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
5210 depending the information provided by your boot server:
5211
5212 bootfile - see above
5213 dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server
5214 dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5215 gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5216 hostname - Target hostname
5217 ipaddr - see above
5218 netmask - Subnet Mask
5219 rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5220 serverip - see above
5221
5222
5223 There are two special Environment Variables:
5224
5225 serial# - contains hardware identification information such
5226 as type string and/or serial number
5227 ethaddr - Ethernet address
5228
5229 These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5230 the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5231 once they have been set once.
5232
5233
5234 Further special Environment Variables:
5235
5236 ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5237 with the "version" command. This variable is
5238 readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
5239
5240
5241 Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
5242 only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
5243
5244
5245 Callback functions for environment variables:
5246 ---------------------------------------------
5247
5248 For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5249 when their values are changed. This functionailty allows functions to
5250 be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or
5251 deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5252 effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5253
5254 The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5255 U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5256
5257 These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The
5258 static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5259 in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5260 associations. The list must be in the following format:
5261
5262 entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5263 list = entry[,list]
5264
5265 If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5266 Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5267
5268 Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5269 with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will
5270 override any association in the static list. You can define
5271 CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5272 ".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5273
5274
5275 Command Line Parsing:
5276 =====================
5277
5278 There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5279 the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5280
5281 Old, simple command line parser:
5282 --------------------------------
5283
5284 - supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5285 - several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5286 - variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5287 - special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5288 for example:
5289 setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5290 - You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5291 setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5292
5293 Hush shell:
5294 -----------
5295
5296 - similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5297 if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5298 until...do...done, ...
5299 - supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5300 commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5301 "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5302 command
5303
5304 General rules:
5305 --------------
5306
5307 (1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5308 command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5309 one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5310 executed anyway.
5311
5312 (2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5313 calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5314 command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5315 variables are not executed.
5316
5317 Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5318 =======================================
5319
5320 Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5321 such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5322 "working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5323
5324 Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5325 MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5326 "eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5327
5328 If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5329 in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5330 ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5331 variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5332
5333 o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5334 environment, the SROM's address is used.
5335
5336 o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5337 environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5338 used.
5339
5340 o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5341 both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5342
5343 o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5344 addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5345 warning is printed.
5346
5347 o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5348 is raised.
5349
5350 If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5351 will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This
5352 may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5353 The naming convention is as follows:
5354 "ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5355
5356 Image Formats:
5357 ==============
5358
5359 U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5360 images in two formats:
5361
5362 New uImage format (FIT)
5363 -----------------------
5364
5365 Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5366 to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5367 components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5368 SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5369
5370
5371 Old uImage format
5372 -----------------
5373
5374 Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5375 preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5376 details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5377
5378 * Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5379 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5380 LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5381 Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5382 INTEGRITY).
5383 * Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5384 IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5385 Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5386 * Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5387 * Load Address
5388 * Entry Point
5389 * Image Name
5390 * Image Timestamp
5391
5392 The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5393 and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5394 CRC32 checksums.
5395
5396
5397 Linux Support:
5398 ==============
5399
5400 Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5401 easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5402 U-Boot.
5403
5404 U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5405 special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5406 "initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5407 instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5408 serves several purposes:
5409
5410 - the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5411 applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5412 Flash memory footprint)
5413
5414 - it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5415 lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5416
5417 - the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5418 images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5419 be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5420 have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5421 change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5422 software is easier now.
5423
5424
5425 Linux HOWTO:
5426 ============
5427
5428 Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5429 ---------------------------------------
5430
5431 U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5432 configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5433 (no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5434 Linux :-).
5435
5436 But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5437
5438 Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5439 include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5440 Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5441 and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5442 as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5443
5444 Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
5445 If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
5446 is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
5447 doc/driver-model.
5448
5449
5450 Configuring the Linux kernel:
5451 -----------------------------
5452
5453 No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5454 device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5455
5456
5457 Building a Linux Image:
5458 -----------------------
5459
5460 With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5461 not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5462 "uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5463 U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5464 which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5465 100% compatible format.
5466
5467 Example:
5468
5469 make TQM850L_config
5470 make oldconfig
5471 make dep
5472 make uImage
5473
5474 The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5475 encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information,
5476 CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5477
5478 * build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5479
5480 * convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5481
5482 ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5483 -R .note -R .comment \
5484 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5485
5486 * compress the binary image:
5487
5488 gzip -9 linux.bin
5489
5490 * package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5491
5492 mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5493 -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5494 -d linux.bin.gz uImage
5495
5496
5497 The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5498 with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5499 combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5500 byte header containing information about target architecture,
5501 operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5502 stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5503
5504 "mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5505 print the header information, or to build new images.
5506
5507 In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5508 contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5509 checksum verification:
5510
5511 tools/mkimage -l image
5512 -l ==> list image header information
5513
5514 The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5515 from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5516
5517 tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5518 -n name -d data_file image
5519 -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5520 -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5521 -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5522 -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5523 -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5524 -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5525 -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5526 -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5527
5528 Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5529 address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5530 kernel version:
5531
5532 - 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5533 - 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5534
5535 So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5536
5537 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5538 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5539 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5540 > examples/uImage.TQM850L
5541 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5542 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5543 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5544 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5545 Load Address: 0x00000000
5546 Entry Point: 0x00000000
5547
5548 To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5549
5550 -> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5551 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5552 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5553 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5554 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5555 Load Address: 0x00000000
5556 Entry Point: 0x00000000
5557
5558 NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5559 speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5560 needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5561 need to be uncompressed:
5562
5563 -> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5564 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5565 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5566 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5567 > examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5568 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5569 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5570 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5571 Data Size: 792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5572 Load Address: 0x00000000
5573 Entry Point: 0x00000000
5574
5575
5576 Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5577 when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5578
5579 -> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5580 > -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5581 > -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5582 Image Name: Simple Ramdisk Image
5583 Created: Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5584 Image Type: PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5585 Data Size: 566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5586 Load Address: 0x00000000
5587 Entry Point: 0x00000000
5588
5589 The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5590 option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5591 option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5592 from the image:
5593
5594 tools/dumpimage -i image -p position data_file
5595 -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file', \
5596 indexed by 'position'
5597
5598
5599 Installing a Linux Image:
5600 -------------------------
5601
5602 To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5603 you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5604
5605 objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5606
5607 The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5608 image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5609 address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5610 specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5611 command.
5612
5613 Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5614 TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5615
5616 => erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5617
5618 .......... done
5619 Erased 8 sectors
5620
5621 => loads 40100000
5622 ## Ready for S-Record download ...
5623 ~>examples/image.srec

5627 [file transfer complete]
5628 [connected]
5629 ## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5630
5631
5632 You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5633 this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5634 corruption happened:
5635
5636 => imi 40100000
5637
5638 ## Checking Image at 40100000 ...

5642 Load Address: 00000000

5644 Verifying Checksum ... OK
5645
5646
5647 Boot Linux:
5648 -----------
5649
5650 The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5651 memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5652 of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5653 parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5654 "printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5655
5656
5657 => printenv bootargs
5658 bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5659
5660 => setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5661
5662 => printenv bootargs
5663 bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

5681 If you want to boot a Linux kernel with initial RAM disk, you pass

5730 Boot Linux and pass a flat device tree:
5731 -----------
5732
5733 First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section
5734 titled "Linux Kernel Interface" above for a more in depth explanation. The
5735 following is an example of how to start a kernel and pass an updated
5736 flat device tree:

5779 More About U-Boot Image Types:
5780 ------------------------------
5781
5782 U-Boot supports the following image types:
5783
5784 "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5785 provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5786 well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5787 the Standalone Program.
5788 "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5789 will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5790 will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5791 drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5792 expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5793 "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5794 parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5795 being started.
5796 "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5797 (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5798 RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5799 to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5800 server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5801 for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5802
5803 "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5804 image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5805 byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5806 Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5807 one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5808 a multiple of 4 bytes).
5809
5810 "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5811 U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5812 flash memory.
5813
5814 "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5815 U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5816 useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5817 as command interpreter.
5818
5819 Booting the Linux zImage:
5820 -------------------------
5821
5822 On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5823 using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5824 as the syntax of "bootm" command.
5825
5826 Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5827 kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5828 address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5829 format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
5830
5831
5832 Standalone HOWTO:
5833 =================
5834
5835 One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5836 run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5837 U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5838
5839 Two simple examples are included with the sources:
5840
5841 "Hello World" Demo:
5842 -------------------
5843
5844 'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5845 application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5846 It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5847 like that:
5848
5849 => loads
5850 ## Ready for S-Record download ...
5851 ~>examples/hello_world.srec
5852 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
5853 [file transfer complete]
5854 [connected]
5855 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004
5856
5857 => go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
5858 ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
5859 Hello World
5860 argc = 7
5861 argv[0] = "40004"
5862 argv[1] = "Hello"
5863 argv[2] = "World!"
5864 argv[3] = "This"
5865 argv[4] = "is"
5866 argv[5] = "a"
5867 argv[6] = "test."
5868 argv[7] = "<NULL>"
5869 Hit any key to exit ...
5870
5871 ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
5872
5873 Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
5874 handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
5875 Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
5876 The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
5877 character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
5878 controlled by the following keys:
5879
5880 ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
5881 b - enable interrupts and start timer
5882 e - stop timer and disable interrupts
5883 q - quit application
5884

5920 Minicom warning:
5921 ================
5922
5923 Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
5924 "minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
5925 consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
5926 Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
5927 especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
5928 use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See
5929 http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
5930 for help with kermit.
5931
5932
5933 Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
5934 configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
5935
5936 Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
5937 X kermit /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s Y U Y N N
5938 Y kermit /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r N D Y N N
5939
5940
5941 NetBSD Notes:
5942 =============
5943
5944 Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
5945 (build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
5946
5947 Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
5948 NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
5949 need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
5950 Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
5951 attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
5952 missing. This file has to be installed and patched manually:
5953
5954 # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
5955 # mkdir powerpc
5956 # ln -s powerpc machine
5957 # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
5958 # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
5959
5960 Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
5961 and U-Boot include files.
5962
5963 Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
5964 stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
5965 proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
5966 tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
5967 meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
5968
5969
5970 Implementation Internals:
5971 =========================
5972
5973 The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
5974 implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
5975 inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
5976 hardware.
5977
5978
5979 Initial Stack, Global Data:
5980 ---------------------------
5981
5982 The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
5983 starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
5984 system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
5985 This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
5986 is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
5987 at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
5988 options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
5989 models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
5990 MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
5991 locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
5992
5993 Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
5994 U-Boot mailing list:
5995
5996 Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
5997 From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>

5999 ...
6000
6001 Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
6002 is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
6003 require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
6004 is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
6005 necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
6006 beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
6007 can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
6008 operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
6009
6010 OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
6011 is another option for the system designer to use as an
6012 initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
6013 option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
6014 board designers haven't used it for something that would
6015 cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
6016 used.
6017
6018 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
6019 with your processor/board/system design. The default value
6020 you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
6021 walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
6022 than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
6023 it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
6024 that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
6025 start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
6026 you get the config right.

6030
6031 It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
6032 code for the initialization procedures:
6033
6034 * Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
6035 to write it.
6036
6037 * Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
6038 as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
6039 zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
6040
6041 * Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
6042 that.
6043
6044 Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
6045 normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
6046 turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
6047 simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
6048 functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
6049 functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
6050 the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
6051 place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
6052 reserve for this purpose.
6053
6054 When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
6055 relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by
6056 GCC's implementation.
6057
6058 For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
6059 R1: stack pointer
6060 R2: reserved for system use
6061 R3-R4: parameter passing and return values
6062 R5-R10: parameter passing
6063 R13: small data area pointer
6064 R30: GOT pointer
6065 R31: frame pointer
6066
6067 (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
6068 is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
6069 going back and forth between asm and C)
6070
6071 ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
6072
6073 Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
6074 address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
6075 but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
6076 smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
6077 average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
6078 624 text + 127 data).
6079
6080 On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
6081 http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
6082
6083 ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
6084
6085 On ARM, the following registers are used:
6086
6087 R0: function argument word/integer result
6088 R1-R3: function argument word
6089 R9: platform specific
6090 R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
6091 R11: argument (frame) pointer
6092 R12: temporary workspace
6093 R13: stack pointer
6094 R14: link register
6095 R15: program counter
6096
6097 ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
6098
6099 Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
6100
6101 On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
6102 http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
6103
6104 ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
6105
6106 Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
6107 to access small data sections, so gp is free.
6108
6109 On NDS32, the following registers are used:
6110
6111 R0-R1: argument/return
6112 R2-R5: argument
6113 R15: temporary register for assembler
6114 R16: trampoline register
6115 R28: frame pointer (FP)
6116 R29: global pointer (GP)
6117 R30: link register (LP)
6118 R31: stack pointer (SP)
6119 PC: program counter (PC)
6120
6121 ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
6122
6123 NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
6124 or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
6125
6126 Memory Management:
6127 ------------------
6128
6129 U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
6130 MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
6131
6132 The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
6133 controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
6134 memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
6135 physical memory banks.
6136
6137 U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
6138 TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
6139 booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
6140 to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
6141 memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
6142 configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
6143 Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
6144
6145 Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
6146 of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
6147
6148 So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
6149 this:
6150
6151 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code
6152 :
6153 0x0000 1FFF
6154 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use
6155 :
6156 :
6157
6158 :
6159 :
6160 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
6161 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
6162 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena
6163 :
6164 0x00FD FFFF
6165 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code
6166 ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
6167 ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
6168 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM]
6169
6170
6171 System Initialization:
6172 ----------------------
6173
6174 In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
6175 (on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
6176 configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
6177 To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
6178 To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
6179 initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
6180 which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
6181 part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
6182 the caches and the SIU.
6183
6184 Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
6185 preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
6186 (multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
6187 on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
6188 programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
6189 simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
6190 banks.
6191
6192 When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
6193 different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
6194 bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
6195 0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
6196 contiguous memory starting from 0.
6197
6198 Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
6199 and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
6200 Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
6201 pages, and the final stack is set up.
6202
6203 Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
6204 until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
6205 running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
6206 new address in RAM.

6283 Coding Standards:
6284 -----------------
6285
6286 All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6287 coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6288 "scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6289
6290 Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6291 MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6292 reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6293 sources.
6294
6295 Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6296 Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6297 in your code.
6298
6299 Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6300 - remove any trailing white space
6301 - use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6302 - make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6303 - do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6304 - do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6305
6306 Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6307 with a request to reformat the changes.
6308
6309
6310 Submitting Patches:
6311 -------------------
6312
6313 Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6314 establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6315 may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6316
6317 Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6318
6319 Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6320 see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6321
6322 When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6323 it:
6324
6325 * For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6326 this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6327 patch actually fixes something.
6328
6329 * For new features: a description of the feature and your
6330 implementation.
6331
6332 * A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6333
6334 * For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
6335
6336 * When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6337 maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6338
6339 * If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6340 document these in the README file.
6341
6342 * The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6343 recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6344 "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6345 the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6346 with some other mail clients.
6347
6348 If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6349 diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6350 GNU diff.
6351
6352 The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6353 directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6354 your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6355 affected files).
6356
6357 We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6358 and compressed attachments must not be used.
6359
6360 * If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6361 files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6362
6363 * Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6364 submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6365
6366
6367 Notes:
6368
6369 * Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6370 source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6371 for any of the boards.
6372
6373 * Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6374 containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6375 returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6376
6377 * If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6378 add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6379 When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6380 (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6381 disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6382 modification.
6383
6384 * Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6385 u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6386 reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6387 bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
