1 config BLK
2 bool "Support block devices"
3 depends on DM
4 default y if DM_MMC
5 help
6 Enable support for block devices, such as SCSI, MMC and USB
7 flash sticks. These provide a block-level interface which permits
8 reading, writing and (in some cases) erasing blocks. Block
9 devices often have a partition table which allows the device to
10 be partitioned into several areas, called 'partitions' in U-Boot.
11 A filesystem can be placed in each partition.

13 config AHCI
14 bool "Support SATA controllers with driver model"
15 depends on DM
16 help
17 This enables a uclass for disk controllers in U-Boot. Various driver
18 types can use this, such as AHCI/SATA. It does not provide any standard
19 operations at present. The block device interface has not been converted
20 to driver model.
21
22 config SATA
23 bool "Support SATA controllers"
24 help
25 This enables support for SATA (Serial Advanced Technology
26 Attachment), a serial bus standard for connecting to hard drives and
27 other storage devices.
28
29 SATA replaces PATA (originally just ATA), which stands for Parallel AT
30 Attachment, where AT refers to an IBM AT (Advanced Technology)
31 computer released in 1984.
32
33 See also CMD_SATA which provides command-line support.
34
35 config SCSI
36 bool "Support SCSI controllers"
37 help
38 This enables support for SCSI (Small Computer System Interface),
39 a parallel interface widely used with storage peripherals such as
40 hard drives and optical drives. The SCSI standards define physical
41 interfaces as well as protocols for controlling devices and
42 tranferring data.

44 config DM_SCSI
45 bool "Support SCSI controllers with driver model"
46 depends on BLK
47 help
48 This option enables the SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) uclass
49 which supports SCSI and SATA HDDs. For every device configuration
50 (IDs/LUNs) a block device is created with RAW read/write and
51 filesystem support.
52
53 config BLOCK_CACHE
54 bool "Use block device cache"
55 default n
56 help
57 This option enables a disk-block cache for all block devices.
58 This is most useful when accessing filesystems under U-Boot since
59 it will prevent repeated reads from directory structures and other
60 filesystem data structures.

64 config SATA_CEVA
65 bool "Ceva Sata controller"
66 depends on AHCI
67 depends on DM_SCSI
68 help
69 This option enables Ceva Sata controller hard IP available on Xilinx
70 ZynqMP. Support up to 2 external devices. Complient with SATA 3.1 and
71 AHCI 1.3 specifications with hot-plug detect feature.

80 Enable this driver to support Sata devices through
81 Synopsys DWC AHCI module.

85 config IDE
86 bool "Support IDE controllers"
87 help
88 Enables support for IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) hard drives.
89 This allows access to raw blocks and filesystems on an IDE drive
90 from U-Boot. See also CMD_IDE which provides an 'ide' command for
91 performing various IDE operations.
