28 At present the environment can be stored in only one place. Use this
29 option to select the location. This is either a device (where the
30 environemnt information is simply written to a fixed location or
31 partition on the device) or a filesystem (where the environment
32 information is written to a file).

34 config ENV_IS_NOWHERE
35 bool "Environment is not stored"
36 help
37 Define this if you don't want to or can't have an environment stored
38 on a storage medium. In this case the environemnt will still exist
39 while U-Boot is running, but once U-Boot exits it will not be
40 stored. U-Boot will therefore always start up with a default
41 environment.

49
50 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
51 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
52
53 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
54 environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
55
56 Note that we consider the length of the address field to
57 still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
58 in the chip address.

62 EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.

64 - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
65 if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
66 I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
67 EEPROM. For example:
68
69 #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 1
70
71 EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
72 a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.

80
81 - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE:
82 This must be enabled. Otherwise it cannot save the environment file.
83
84 config ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
85 bool "Environment in flash memory"
86 depends on !CHAIN_OF_TRUST
87 help
88 Define this if you have a flash device which you want to use for the
89 environment.
90
91 a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
92 "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
93 happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
94 sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
95 sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
96 layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
97 such a case you would place the environment in one of the
98 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
99 "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
100 environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
101 between U-Boot and the environment.
102
103 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
104
105 Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
106 beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
107 type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
108 for this sector is given here.
109
110 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
111
112 CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
113
114 This is just another way to specify the start address of
115 the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
116 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
117
118 CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
119
120 Size of the sector containing the environment.
121
122
123 b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
124 In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
125 the environment.
126
127 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
128
129 If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
130 and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
131 of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
132 memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
133
134 It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
135 when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
136 since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
137 for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
138 STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
139 updating the environment in flash makes it always
140 necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
141 wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
142 RAM, your target system will be dead.
143
144 CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
145 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
146
147 These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
148 a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
149 a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
150 a "saveenv" operation.
151
152 BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
153 source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
154 accordingly!
155
156 config ENV_IS_IN_MMC
157 bool "Environment in an MMC device"
158 depends on !CHAIN_OF_TRUST
159 help
160 Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
161 environment.
162
163 CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
164
165 Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
166
167 CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
168
169 Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
170 set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
171 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
172
173 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
174 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
175
176 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
177 area within the specified MMC device.
178
179 If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
180 the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
181 as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
182 your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
183 different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
184 environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
185 maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
186
187 These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
188 MMC sector boundary.
189
190 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
191
192 Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
193 hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
194 valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
195 to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
196
197 This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
198 same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
199
200 This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
201 an MMC sector boundary.
202
203 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
204
205 This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
206 set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
207 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.

214 environment.

216 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
217 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:

219 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
220 area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
221 aligned to an erase block boundary.
222
223 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
224
225 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
226 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
227 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
228 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND must be
229 aligned to an erase block boundary.
230
231 - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
232
233 Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
234 can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
235 block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
236 are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
237 the range to be avoided.
238
239 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
240
241 Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
242 environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The
243 "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
244 Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
245 using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
