3 config BOOTSTAGE
4 bool "Boot timing and reporting"
5 help
6 Enable recording of boot time while booting. To use it, insert
7 calls to bootstage_mark() with a suitable BOOTSTAGE_ID from
8 bootstage.h. Only a single entry is recorded for each ID. You can
9 give the entry a name with bootstage_mark_name(). You can also
10 record elapsed time in a particular stage using bootstage_start()
11 before starting and bootstage_accum() when finished. Bootstage will
12 add up all the accumated time and report it.
13
14 Normally, IDs are defined in bootstage.h but a small number of
15 additional 'user' IDs can be used but passing BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC
16 as the ID.
17
18 Calls to show_boot_progress() wil also result in log entries but
19 these will not have names.

21 config BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
22 bool "Display a detailed boot timing report before booting the OS"
23 depends on BOOTSTAGE
24 help
25 Enable output of a boot time report just before the OS is booted.
26 This shows how long it took U-Boot to go through each stage of the
27 boot process. The report looks something like this:

29 Timer summary in microseconds:
30 Mark Elapsed Stage

41 hex "Number of boot ID numbers available for user use"
42 default 20
43 help
44 This is the number of available user bootstage records.
45 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
46 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
47 the limit, recording will stop.
48
49 config BOOTSTAGE_FDT
50 bool "Store boot timing information in the OS device tree"
51 depends on BOOTSTAGE
52 help
53 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
54 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
55 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
56 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
57 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
58 For example:
59
60 bootstage {
61 154 {
62 name = "board_init_f";
63 mark = <3575678>;
64 };
65 170 {
66 name = "lcd";
67 accum = <33482>;
68 };
69 };
70
71 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.
72
73 config BOOTSTAGE_STASH
74 bool "Stash the boot timing information in memory before booting OS"
75 depends on BOOTSTAGE
76 help
77 Some OSes do not support device tree. Bootstage can instead write
78 the boot timing information in a binary format at a given address.
79 This happens through a call to bootstage_stash(), typically in
80 the CPU's cleanup_before_linux() function. You can use the
81 'bootstage stash' and 'bootstage unstash' commands to do this on
82 the command line.
83
84 config BOOTSTAGE_STASH_ADDR
85 hex "Address to stash boot timing information"
86 default 0
87 help
88 Provide an address which will not be overwritten by the OS when it
89 starts, so that it can read this information when ready.
90
91 config BOOTSTAGE_STASH_SIZE
92 hex "Size of boot timing stash region"
93 default 4096
94 help
95 This should be large enough to hold the bootstage stash. A value of
96 4096 (4KiB) is normally plenty.

100 config CONSOLE_RECORD
101 bool "Console recording"
102 help
103 This provides a way to record console output (and provide console
104 input) through cirular buffers. This is mostly useful for testing.
105 Console output is recorded even when the console is silent.
106 To enable console recording, call console_record_reset_enable()
107 from your code.
108
109 config CONSOLE_RECORD_OUT_SIZE
110 hex "Output buffer size"
111 depends on CONSOLE_RECORD
112 default 0x400 if CONSOLE_RECORD
113 help
114 Set the size of the console output buffer. When this fills up, no
115 more data will be recorded until some is removed. The buffer is
116 allocated immediately after the malloc() region is ready.
117
118 config CONSOLE_RECORD_IN_SIZE
119 hex "Input buffer size"
120 depends on CONSOLE_RECORD
121 default 0x100 if CONSOLE_RECORD
122 help
123 Set the size of the console input buffer. When this contains data,
124 tstc() and getc() will use this in preference to real device input.
125 The buffer is allocated immediately after the malloc() region is
126 ready.
