For instance, all monitor commands are 24implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to 25add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used 26code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can 27load and run it dynamically. 28 29 30Status: 31======= 32 33In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the 34Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered 35"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems. 36 37In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out 38who contributed the specific port. The boards.cfg file lists board 39maintainers. 40 41Note: There is no CHANGELOG file in the actual U-Boot source tree; 42it can be created dynamically from the Git log using: 43 44 make CHANGELOG 45 46 47Where to get help: 48================== 49 50In case you have questions about, problems with or contributions for 51U-Boot you should send a message to the U-Boot mailing list at 52<u-boot@lists.denx.de>.

the 229rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible. 230 231There are two classes of configuration variables: 232 233* Configuration _OPTIONS_: 234 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with 235 "CONFIG_". 236 237* Configuration _SETTINGS_: 238 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if 239 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with 240 "CONFIG_SYS_". 241 242Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even 243identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to 244do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic 245links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards 246as an example here. 247 248 249Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: 250--------------------------------------------------- 251 252For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default 253configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig". 254 255Example: For a TQM823L module type: 256 257 cd u-boot 258 make TQM823L_defconfig 259 260For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well; 261e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_defconfig". And also configure the cogent 262directory according to the instructions in cogent/README. 263 264 265Sandbox Environment: 266-------------------- 267 268U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox' 269board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture- 270specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to 271run some of U-Boot's tests. 272 273See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details. 274 275 276Board Initialisation Flow: 277-------------------------- 278 279This is the intended start-up flow for boards. This should apply for both 280SPL and U-Boot proper (i.e. they both follow the same rules). At present SPL 281mostly uses a separate code path, but the funtion names and roles of each 282function are the same. Some boards or architectures may not conform to this. 283At least most ARM boards which use CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK conform to this. 284 285Execution starts with start.S with three functions called during init after 286that. The purpose and limitations of each is described below. 287 288lowlevel_init(): 289 - purpose: essential init to permit execution to reach board_init_f() 290 - no global_data or BSS 291 - there is no stack (ARMv7 may have one but it will soon be removed) 292 - must not set up SDRAM or use console 293 - must only do the bare minimum to allow execution to continue to 294 board_init_f() 295 - this is almost never needed 296 - return normally from this function 297 298board_init_f(): 299 - purpose: set up the machine ready for running board_init_r(): 300 i.e. SDRAM and serial UART 301 - global_data is available 302 - stack is in SRAM 303 - BSS is not available, so you cannot use global/static variables, 304 only stack variables and global_data 305 306 Non-SPL-specific notes: 307 - dram_init() is called to set up DRAM. If already done in SPL this 308 can do nothing 309 310 SPL-specific notes: 311 - you can override the entire board_init_f() function with your own 312 version as needed. 313 - preloader_console_init() can be called here in extremis 314 - should set up SDRAM, and anything needed to make the UART work 315 - these is no need to clear BSS, it will be done by crt0.S 316 - must return normally from this function (don't call board_init_r() 317 directly) 318 319Here the BSS is cleared. For SPL, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined, then at 320this point the stack and global_data are relocated to below 321CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR. For non-SPL, U-Boot is relocated to run at the top of 322memory. 323 324board_init_r(): 325 - purpose: main execution, common code 326 - global_data is available 327 - SDRAM is available 328 - BSS is available, all static/global variables can be used 329 - execution eventually continues to main_loop() 330 331 Non-SPL-specific notes: 332 - U-Boot is relocated to the top of memory and is now running from 333 there. 334 335 SPL-specific notes: 336 - stack is optionally in SDRAM, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined and 337 CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR points into SDRAM 338 - preloader_console_init() can be called here - typically this is 339 done by defining CONFIG_SPL_BOARD_INIT and then supplying a 340 spl_board_init() function containing this call 341 - loads U-Boot or (in falcon mode) Linux 342 343 344 345Configuration Options: 346---------------------- 347 348Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all 349such information is kept in a configuration file 350"include/configs/<board_name>.h". 351 352Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in 353"include/configs/TQM823L.h". 354 355 356Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux 357kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to 358build a config tool - later. 359 360 361The following options need to be configured: 362 363- CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX. 364 365- Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS. 366 367- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined) 368 Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002 369 370- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 371 Define exactly one of 372 CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD 373--- FIXME --- not tested yet: 374 CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P, 375 CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50 376 377- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 378 Define exactly one of 379 CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102 380 381- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 382 Define one or more of 383 CONFIG_CMA302 384 385- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined) 386 Define one or more of 387 CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on 388 the LCD display every second with 389 a "rotator" |\-/|\-/ 390 391- Marvell Family Member 392 CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable 393 multiple fs option at one time 394 for marvell soc family 395 396- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU) 397 CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if 398 get_gclk_freq() cannot work 399 e.g. if there is no 32KHz 400 reference PIT/RTC clock 401 CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK 402 or XTAL/EXTAL) 403 404- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU): 405 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN 406 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX 407 CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT 408 See doc/README.MPC866 409 410 CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK 411 412 Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead 413 of relying on the correctness of the configured 414 values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure 415 the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note 416 that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz 417 RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN) 418 419 CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE 420 421 Define this option if you want to enable the 422 ICache only when Code runs from RAM. 423 424- 85xx CPU Options: 425 CONFIG_SYS_PPC64 426 427 Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements 428 the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR 429 compliance, among other possible reasons. 430 431 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV 432 433 Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the 434 system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ 435 devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc. 436 437 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT 438 439 Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device 440 tree nodes for the given platform. 441 442 CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB 443 444 Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work 445 around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger 446 support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where 447 breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this 448 symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this 449 purpose. 450 451 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 452 453 Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set, 454 then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and 455 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set. 456 457 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV 458 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional) 459 460 Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR) 461 for which the A004510 workaround should be applied. 462 463 The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision 464 of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus 465 p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls 466 whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set. 467 468 See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about 469 this erratum. 470 471 CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND 472 Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only 473 required during NOR boot. 474 475 CONFIG_A008044_WORKAROUND 476 Enables a workaround for T1040/T1042 erratum A008044. It is only 477 required during NAND boot and valid for Rev 1.0 SoC revision 478 479 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY 480 481 This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600 482 according to the A004510 workaround. 483 484 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR 485 This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is 486 connected exclusively to the DSP cores. 487 488 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR 489 This value denotes start offset of M2 memory 490 which is directly connected to the DSP core. 491 492 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR 493 This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly 494 connected to the DSP core. 495 496 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT 497 This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space. 498 499 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK 500 Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's. 501 In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply 502 clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock. 503 504 CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F 505 This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the 506 time of U-boot entry and is required to be re-initialized. 507 508 CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP 509 Indicates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is 510 supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up. 511 512- Generic CPU options: 513 CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA 514 Defines global data is initialized in generic board board_init_f(). 515 If this macro is defined, global data is created and cleared in 516 generic board board_init_f(). Without this macro, architecture/board 517 should initialize global data before calling board_init_f(). 518 519 CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN 520 521 Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those 522 values is arch specific. 523 524 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR 525 Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is 526 found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core 527 SoCs. 528 529 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_ADDR 530 Freescale DDR memory-mapped register base. 531 532 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_EMU 533 Specify emulator support for DDR.

It can be enabled for SoCs with 553 Freescale DDR1 or DDR2 controllers, depending on the board 554 implemetation. 555 556 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR2 557 Board config to use DDR2. It can be eanbeld for SoCs with 558 Freescale DDR2 or DDR3 controllers, depending on the board 559 implementation. 560 561 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR3 562 Board config to use DDR3. It can be enabled for SoCs with 563 Freescale DDR3 or DDR3L controllers. 564 565 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR3L 566 Board config to use DDR3L. It can be enabled for SoCs with 567 DDR3L controllers. 568 569 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR4 570 Board config to use DDR4. It can be enabled for SoCs with 571 DDR4 controllers. 572 573 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_IFC_BE 574 Defines the IFC controller register space as Big Endian 575 576 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_IFC_LE 577 Defines the IFC controller register space as Little Endian 578 579 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PBL_PBI 580 It enables addition of RCW (Power on reset configuration) in built image. 581 Please refer doc/README.pblimage for more details 582 583 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PBL_RCW 584 It adds PBI(pre-boot instructions) commands in u-boot build image. 585 PBI commands can be used to configure SoC before it starts the execution. 586 Please refer doc/README.pblimage for more details 587 588 CONFIG_SPL_FSL_PBL 589 It adds a target to create boot binary having SPL binary in PBI format 590 concatenated with u-boot binary. 591 592 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_BE 593 Defines the DDR controller register space as Big Endian 594 595 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_LE 596 Defines the DDR controller register space as Little Endian 597 598 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_SDRAM_BASE_PHY 599 Physical address from the view of DDR controllers. It is the 600 same as CONFIG_SYS_DDR_SDRAM_BASE for all Power SoCs. But 601 it could be different for ARM SoCs. 602 603 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_INTLV_256B 604 DDR controller interleaving on 256-byte. This is a special 605 interleaving mode, handled by Dickens for Freescale layerscape 606 SoCs with ARM core. 607 608 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_MAIN_NUM_CTRLS 609 Number of controllers used as main memory. 610 611 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_OTHER_DDR_NUM_CTRLS 612 Number of controllers used for other than main memory. 613 614 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_BE 615 Defines the SEC controller register space as Big Endian 616 617 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_LE 618 Defines the SEC controller register space as Little Endian 619 620- Intel Monahans options: 621 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO 622 623 Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator 624 ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core 625 frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz. 626 627 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO 628 629 Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator 630 ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and 631 2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied 632 by this value. 633 634- MIPS CPU options: 635 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET 636 637 Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack 638 pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before 639 relocation. 640 641 CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE 642 643 Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU. 644 See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h. 645 Possible values are: 646 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA 647 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA 648 CONF_CM_UNCACHED 649 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT 650 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE 651 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW 652 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW 653 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED 654 655 CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG 656 657 Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. 658 See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S. 659 660 CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES 661 662 Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq 663 XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to 664 be swapped if a flash programmer is used. 665 666- ARM options: 667 CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH 668 669 Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not 670 clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15. 671 672 CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD 673 674 Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction 675 set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides 676 better code density. For ARM architectures that support 677 Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by 678 GCC. 679 680 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044 681 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230 682 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622 683 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472 684 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072 685 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_761320 686 687 If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early 688 during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the 689 workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection 690 exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not 691 set these options unless they apply! 692 693 NOTE: The following can be machine specific errata. These 694 do have ability to provide rudimentary version and machine 695 specific checks, but expect no product checks. 696 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_430973 697 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_454179 698 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_621766 699 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_798870 700 701- Tegra SoC options: 702 CONFIG_TEGRA_SUPPORT_NON_SECURE 703 704 Support executing U-Boot in non-secure (NS) mode. Certain 705 impossible actions will be skipped if the CPU is in NS mode, 706 such as ARM architectural timer initialization. 707 708- Linux Kernel Interface: 709 CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ 710 711 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz 712 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux 713 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the 714 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable 715 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot 716 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the 717 Linux kernel. 718 When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of 719 "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the 720 default environment. 721 722 CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only] 723 724 When transferring memsize parameter to Linux, some versions 725 expect it to be in bytes, others in MB. 726 Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes. 727 728 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 729 730 New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be 731 passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware 732 concepts). 733 734 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 735 * New libfdt-based support 736 * Adds the "fdt" command 737 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt 738 739 OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for 740 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 741 OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for 742 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 743 OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency. 744 OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device 745 746 boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC 747 addresses 748 749 CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP 750 751 Board code has addition modification that it wants to make 752 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel 753 754 CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP 755 756 Other code has addition modification that it wants to make 757 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel. 758 This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting 759 the kernel. 760 761 CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU 762 763 This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot 764 param header, the default value is zero if undefined. 765 766 CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP 767 768 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. 769 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot 770 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, 771 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and 772 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where 773 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. 774 775 CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory] 776 777 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one 778 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type 779 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry 780 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/). 781 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported 782 in a single configuration file and the machine type is 783 runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting. 784 785- vxWorks boot parameters: 786 787 bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following 788 environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname. 789 It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile. 790 791 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name 792 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address 793 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server 794 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters 795 796 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS 797 798 Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret" 799 800 Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride 801 the defaults discussed just above. 802 803- Cache Configuration: 804 CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot 805 CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot 806 CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot 807 808- Cache Configuration for ARM: 809 CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache 810 controller 811 CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310 812 controller register space 813 814- Serial Ports: 815 CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL 816 817 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs. 818 819 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL 820 821 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs. 822 823 CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK 824 825 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to 826 the clock speed of the UARTs. 827 828 CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS 829 830 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board, 831 define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported) 832 port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h 833 834 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR 835 836 Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500) 837 have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set 838 this variable to initialize the extra register. 839 840 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT 841 842 On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage 843 boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this 844 variable to flush the UART at init time. 845 846 CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL 847 848 Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver. 849 Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver 850 851- Console Interface: 852 Depending on board, define exactly one serial port 853 (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2, 854 CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial 855 console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE 856 857 Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial 858 port routines must be defined elsewhere 859 (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...) 860 861 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 862 Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following 863 defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042) 864 VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation 865 (default big endian) 866 VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports 867 rectangle fill 868 (cf. smiLynxEM) 869 VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports 870 bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM) 871 VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns 872 (cols=pitch) 873 VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows 874 VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel 875 VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format 876 (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c) 877 VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address 878 VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct 879 (i.e. i8042_kbd_init()) 880 VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct 881 (i.e. i8042_tstc) 882 VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct 883 (i.e. i8042_getc) 884 CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR cursor drawing on/off 885 (requires blink timer 886 cf. i8042.c) 887 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c) 888 CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME display time/date info in 889 upper right corner 890 (requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE) 891 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in 892 upper left corner 893 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of 894 linux_logo.h for logo. 895 Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 896 CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO 897 additional board info beside 898 the logo 899 900 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support 901 a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control, 902 erase functions and limited graphics rendition control). 903 904 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is 905 default i/o. Serial console can be forced with 906 environment 'console=serial'. 907 908 When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console 909 messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with 910 the "silent" environment variable. See 911 doc/README.silent for more information. 912 913 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default 914 is 0x00. 915 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default 916 is 0xa0. 917 918- Console Baudrate: 919 CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps 920 Select one of the baudrates listed in 921 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 922 CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale 923 924- Console Rx buffer length 925 With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define 926 the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC. 927 This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible. 928 If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE 929 must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for 930 the SMC. 931 932- Pre-Console Buffer: 933 Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART 934 initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. 935 Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to 936 buffer any console messages prior to the console being 937 initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 938 bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is 939 a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 940 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the 941 earlier bytes are discarded. 942 943 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if 944 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2 945 946- Safe printf() functions 947 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of 948 the printf() functions. These are defined in 949 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and 950 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes. 951 If this option is not given then these functions will 952 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means 953 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case. 954 955- Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds 956 Delay before automatically booting the default image; 957 set to -1 to disable autoboot. 958 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort 959 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined). 960 961 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that 962 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required. 963 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 964 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN 965 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED 966 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT 967 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 968 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 969 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2 970 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2 971 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK 972 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY 973 974- Autoboot Command: 975 CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 976 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled; 977 define a command string that is automatically executed 978 when no character is read on the console interface 979 within "Boot Delay" after reset. 980 981 CONFIG_BOOTARGS 982 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm 983 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the 984 environment value "bootargs". 985 986 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT 987 The value of these goes into the environment as 988 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used 989 as a convenience, when switching between booting from 990 RAM and NFS. 991 992- Bootcount: 993 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT 994 Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot 995 cycle, see: 996 http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit 997 998 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV 999 If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware 1000 "bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a 1001 saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable 1002 "upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is 1003 0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is 1004 1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment. 1005 So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available" 1006 and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully. 1007 1008- Pre-Boot Commands: 1009 CONFIG_PREBOOT 1010 1011 When this option is #defined, the existence of the 1012 environment variable "preboot" will be checked 1013 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 1014 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp. 1015 entering interactive mode. 1016 1017 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is 1018 automatically generated or modified. For an example 1019 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is 1020 modified when the user holds down a certain 1021 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when 1022 booting the systems 1023 1024- Serial Download Echo Mode: 1025 CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 1026 If defined to 1, all characters received during a 1027 serial download (using the "loads" command) are 1028 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal 1029 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take 1030 time on others. This setting #define's the initial 1031 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable. 1032 1033- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined) 1034 CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE 1035 Select one of the baudrates listed in 1036 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 1037 1038- Monitor Functions: 1039 Monitor commands can be included or excluded 1040 from the build by using the #include files 1041 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted 1042 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h> 1043 and augmenting with additional #define's 1044 for wanted commands. 1045 1046 The default command configuration includes all commands 1047 except those marked below with a "*". 1048 1049 CONFIG_CMD_AES AES 128 CBC encrypt/decrypt 1050 CONFIG_CMD_ASKENV * ask for env variable 1051 CONFIG_CMD_BDI

"config_cmd_all.h" 1161 #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET 1162 1163 Other Commands: 1164 fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 1165 1166 Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands 1167 (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know 1168 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data 1169 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or 1170 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be 1171 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other 1172 systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an 1173 initial stack and some data. 1174 1175 1176 XXX - this list needs to get updated! 1177 1178- Regular expression support: 1179 CONFIG_REGEX 1180 If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against 1181 the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library, 1182 which adds regex support to some commands, as for 1183 example "env grep" and "setexpr". 1184 1185- Device tree: 1186 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 1187 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree 1188 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically 1189 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is 1190 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device 1191 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. 1192 1193 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can 1194 be done using one of the two options below: 1195 1196 CONFIG_OF_EMBED 1197 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree 1198 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the 1199 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file 1200 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through 1201 the global data structure as gd->blob. 1202 1203 CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE 1204 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree 1205 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific 1206 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: 1207 1208 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin 1209 1210 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called 1211 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can 1212 still use the individual files if you need something more 1213 exotic. 1214 1215- Watchdog: 1216 CONFIG_WATCHDOG 1217 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog 1218 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC 1219 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 1220 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR 1221 register. When supported for a specific SoC is 1222 available, then no further board specific code should 1223 be needed to use it. 1224 1225 CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG 1226 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used 1227 SoC, then define this variable and provide board 1228 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. 1229 1230 CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT 1231 specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds. 1232 1233- U-Boot Version: 1234 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE 1235 If this variable is defined, an environment variable 1236 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot 1237 version as printed by the "version" command. 1238 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the 1239 next reset. 1240 1241- Real-Time Clock: 1242 1243 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC 1244 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the 1245 following options: 1246 1247 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx 1248 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC 1249 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC 1250 CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC 1251 CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC 1252 CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC 1253 CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC 1254 CONFIG_RTC_DS1339 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC 1255 CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC 1256 CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC 1257 CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC 1258 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337 1259 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on 1260 RV3029 RTC. 1261 1262 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1263 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1264 1265- GPIO Support: 1266 CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO 1267 1268 The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of 1269 chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of 1270 pins supported by a particular chip. 1271 1272 Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1273 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1274 1275- I/O tracing: 1276 When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O 1277 accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out 1278 to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is 1279 useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that 1280 the driver behaves the same way before and after a code 1281 change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To 1282 add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>' 1283 to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test. 1284 1285 Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below. 1286 Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will 1287 still continue to operate. 1288 1289 iotrace is enabled 1290 Start: 10000000 (buffer start address) 1291 Size: 00010000 (buffer size) 1292 Offset: 00000120 (current buffer offset) 1293 Output: 10000120 (start + offset) 1294 Count: 00000018 (number of trace records) 1295 CRC32: 9526fb66 (CRC32 of all trace records) 1296 1297- Timestamp Support: 1298 1299 When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp 1300 (date and time) of an image is printed by image 1301 commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is 1302 automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE . 1303 1304- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported: 1305 Zero or more of the following: 1306 CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table. 1307 CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the 1308 Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc. 1309 CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc. 1310 CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the 1311 bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see 1312 disk/part_efi.c 1313 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table. 1314 1315 If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or 1316 CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at 1317 least one non-MTD partition type as well. 1318 1319- IDE Reset method: 1320 CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several 1321 board configurations files but used nowhere! 1322 1323 CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will 1324 be performed by calling the function 1325 ide_set_reset(int reset) 1326 which has to be defined in a board specific file 1327 1328- ATAPI Support: 1329 CONFIG_ATAPI 1330 1331 Set this to enable ATAPI support. 1332 1333- LBA48 Support 1334 CONFIG_LBA48 1335 1336 Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB 1337 Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA. 1338 Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only' 1339 support disks up to 2.1TB. 1340 1341 CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA: 1342 When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses. 1343 Default is 32bit. 1344 1345- SCSI Support: 1346 At the moment only there is only support for the 1347 SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define 1348 CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it. 1349 1350 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and 1351 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID * 1352 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the 1353 maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target 1354 devices. 1355 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz) 1356 1357 The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of 1358 SCSI devices found during the last scan. 1359 1360- NETWORK Support (PCI): 1361 CONFIG_E1000 1362 Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips. 1363 1364 CONFIG_E1000_SPI 1365 Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x. 1366 This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one 1367 of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC. 1368 1369 CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC 1370 Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for 1371 example with the "sspi" command. 1372 1373 CONFIG_CMD_E1000 1374 Management command for E1000 devices. When used on devices 1375 with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot. 1376 1377 CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC 1378 default MAC for empty EEPROM after production. 1379 1380 CONFIG_EEPRO100 1381 Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips. 1382 Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM 1383 write routine for first time initialisation. 1384 1385 CONFIG_TULIP 1386 Support for Digital 2114x chips. 1387 Optional CONFIG_TULIP_SELECT_MEDIA for board specific 1388 modem chip initialisation (KS8761/QS6611). 1389 1390 CONFIG_NATSEMI 1391 Support for National dp83815 chips. 1392 1393 CONFIG_NS8382X 1394 Support for National dp8382[01] gigabit chips. 1395 1396- NETWORK Support (other): 1397 1398 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC 1399 Support for AT91RM9200 EMAC. 1400 1401 CONFIG_RMII 1402 Define this to use reduced MII inteface 1403 1404 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC_QUIET 1405 If this defined, the driver is quiet. 1406 The driver doen't show link status messages. 1407 1408 CONFIG_CALXEDA_XGMAC 1409 Support for the Calxeda XGMAC device 1410 1411 CONFIG_LAN91C96 1412 Support for SMSC's LAN91C96 chips. 1413 1414 CONFIG_LAN91C96_BASE 1415 Define this to hold the physical address 1416 of the LAN91C96's I/O space 1417 1418 CONFIG_LAN91C96_USE_32_BIT 1419 Define this to enable 32 bit addressing 1420 1421 CONFIG_SMC91111 1422 Support for SMSC's LAN91C111 chip 1423 1424 CONFIG_SMC91111_BASE 1425 Define this to hold the physical address 1426 of the device (I/O space) 1427 1428 CONFIG_SMC_USE_32_BIT 1429 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1430 1431 CONFIG_SMC_USE_IOFUNCS 1432 Define this to use i/o functions instead of macros 1433 (some hardware wont work with macros) 1434 1435 CONFIG_DRIVER_TI_EMAC 1436 Support for davinci emac 1437 1438 CONFIG_SYS_DAVINCI_EMAC_PHY_COUNT 1439 Define this if you have more then 3 PHYs. 1440 1441 CONFIG_FTGMAC100 1442 Support for Faraday's FTGMAC100 Gigabit SoC Ethernet 1443 1444 CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA 1445 Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY. 1446 Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY. 1447 If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur 1448 wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or 1449 useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit 1450 control registers. This behavior won't affect the 1451 correctnessof 10/100 link speed update. 1452 1453 CONFIG_SMC911X 1454 Support for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x chips 1455 1456 CONFIG_SMC911X_BASE 1457 Define this to hold the physical address 1458 of the device (I/O space) 1459 1460 CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT 1461 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1462 1463 CONFIG_SMC911X_16_BIT 1464 Define this if data bus is 16 bits. If your processor 1465 automatically converts one 32 bit word to two 16 bit 1466 words you may also try CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT. 1467 1468 CONFIG_SH_ETHER 1469 Support for Renesas on-chip Ethernet controller 1470 1471 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_USE_PORT 1472 Define the number of ports to be used 1473 1474 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_PHY_ADDR 1475 Define the ETH PHY's address 1476 1477 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_CACHE_WRITEBACK 1478 If this option is set, the driver enables cache flush. 1479 1480- PWM Support: 1481 CONFIG_PWM_IMX 1482 Support for PWM modul on the imx6. 1483 1484- TPM Support: 1485 CONFIG_TPM 1486 Support TPM devices. 1487 1488 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C 1489 Support for i2c bus TPM devices. Only one device 1490 per system is supported at this time. 1491 1492 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BUS_NUMBER 1493 Define the the i2c bus number for the TPM device 1494 1495 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_SLAVE_ADDRESS 1496 Define the TPM's address on the i2c bus 1497 1498 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BURST_LIMITATION 1499 Define the burst count bytes upper limit 1500 1501 CONFIG_TPM_ATMEL_TWI 1502 Support for Atmel TWI TPM device. Requires I2C support. 1503 1504 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_LPC 1505 Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device 1506 per system is supported at this time. 1507 1508 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS 1509 Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped 1510 to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at 1511 0xfed40000. 1512 1513 CONFIG_CMD_TPM 1514 Add tpm monitor functions. 1515 Requires CONFIG_TPM. If CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS is set, also 1516 provides monitor access to authorized functions. 1517 1518 CONFIG_TPM 1519 Define this to enable the TPM support library which provides 1520 functional interfaces to some TPM commands. 1521 Requires support for a TPM device. 1522 1523 CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS 1524 Define this to enable authorized functions in the TPM library. 1525 Requires CONFIG_TPM and CONFIG_SHA1. 1526 1527- USB Support: 1528 At the moment only the UHCI host controller is 1529 supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define 1530 CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it. 1531 define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard 1532 and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB 1533 storage devices. 1534 Note: 1535 Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives 1536 (TEAC FD-05PUB). 1537 MPC5200 USB requires additional defines: 1538 CONFIG_USB_CLOCK 1539 for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb 1540 CONFIG_PSC3_USB 1541 for USB on PSC3 1542 CONFIG_USB_CONFIG 1543 for differential drivers: 0x00001000 1544 for single ended drivers: 0x00005000 1545 for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100 1546 for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100 1547 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL 1548 May be defined to allow interrupt polling 1549 instead of using asynchronous interrupts 1550 1551 CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the 1552 txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset. 1553 1554 CONFIG_USB_DWC2_REG_ADDR the physical CPU address of the DWC2 1555 HW module registers. 1556 1557- USB Device: 1558 Define the below if you wish to use the USB console. 1559 Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the 1560 command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and 1561 attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print 1562 it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty 1563 can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to 1564 appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a 1565 Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device. 1566 If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate 1567 a Linux host by 1568 # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID 1569 else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment 1570 variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following 1571 might be defined in YourBoardName.h 1572 1573 CONFIG_USB_DEVICE 1574 Define this to build a UDC device 1575 1576 CONFIG_USB_TTY 1577 Define this to have a tty type of device available to 1578 talk to the UDC device 1579 1580 CONFIG_USBD_HS 1581 Define this to enable the high speed support for usb 1582 device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine 1583 int is_usbd_high_speed(void) 1584 also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll 1585 whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full 1586 speed. 1587 1588 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 1589 Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to 1590 be set to usbtty. 1591 1592 mpc8xx: 1593 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH 1594 Derive USB clock from external clock "blah" 1595 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02 1596 1597 CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH 1598 Derive USB clock from brgclk 1599 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04 1600 1601 If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to 1602 define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h 1603 or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define 1604 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME, 1605 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot 1606 should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host. 1607 1608 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER 1609 Define this string as the name of your company for 1610 - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company" 1611 1612 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME 1613 Define this string as the name of your product 1614 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device" 1615 1616 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 1617 Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB 1618 Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID 1619 to avoid polluting the USB namespace. 1620 - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF 1621 1622 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 1623 Define this as the unique Product ID 1624 for your device 1625 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF 1626 1627- ULPI Layer Support: 1628 The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via 1629 the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY 1630 via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and 1631 the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based 1632 viewport is supported. 1633 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and 1634 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. 1635 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the 1636 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to 1637 the appropriate value in Hz. 1638 1639- MMC Support: 1640 The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To 1641 enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be 1642 accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device 1643 to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is 1644 enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with 1645 the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT. 1646 1647 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF 1648 Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller 1649 1650 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR 1651 Define the base address of MMCIF registers 1652 1653 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK 1654 Define the clock frequency for MMCIF 1655 1656 CONFIG_GENERIC_MMC 1657 Enable the generic MMC driver 1658 1659 CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_BOOT 1660 Enable some additional features of the eMMC boot partitions. 1661 1662 CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_RPMB 1663 Enable the commands for reading, writing and programming the 1664 key for the Replay Protection Memory Block partition in eMMC. 1665 1666- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support: 1667 CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION 1668 This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class 1669 1670 CONFIG_CMD_DFU 1671 This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have 1672 U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB. This command 1673 requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be 1674 set and define the alt settings to expose to the host. 1675 1676 CONFIG_DFU_MMC 1677 This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU. 1678 1679 CONFIG_DFU_NAND 1680 This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU. 1681 1682 CONFIG_DFU_RAM 1683 This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU. 1684 Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but 1685 allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage, 1686 one that would help mostly the developer. 1687 1688 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE 1689 Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the 1690 raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer 1691 configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable 1692 through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable. 1693 1694 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE 1695 When updating files rather than the raw storage device, 1696 we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write 1697 the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define 1698 this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer. 1699 Default is 4 MiB if undefined. 1700 1701 DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT 1702 Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the 1703 host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending 1704 a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device. 1705 1706 DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT 1707 Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when 1708 entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before 1709 sending again an USB request to the device. 1710 1711- USB Device Android Fastboot support: 1712 CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT 1713 This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android 1714 fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB 1715 protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control 1716 used on Android devices. 1717 See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information. 1718 1719 CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE 1720 This enables support for booting images which use the Android 1721 image format header. 1722 1723 CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR 1724 The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for 1725 downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for 1726 downloaded images. 1727 1728 CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE 1729 The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for 1730 downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a 1731 platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot. 1732 1733 CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH 1734 The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing 1735 the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define 1736 this to enable the "fastboot flash" command. 1737 1738 CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV 1739 The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information 1740 regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to 1741 the eMMC device that fastboot should use to store the image. 1742 1743 CONFIG_FASTBOOT_GPT_NAME 1744 The fastboot "flash" command supports writing the downloaded 1745 image to the Protective MBR and the Primary GUID Partition 1746 Table. (Additionally, this downloaded image is post-processed 1747 to generate and write the Backup GUID Partition Table.) 1748 This occurs when the specified "partition name" on the 1749 "fastboot flash" command line matches this value. 1750 Default is GPT_ENTRY_NAME (currently "gpt") if undefined. 1751 1752- Journaling Flash filesystem support: 1753 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE, 1754 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV 1755 Define these for a default partition on a NAND device 1756 1757 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR, 1758 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS 1759 Define these for a default partition on a NOR device 1760 1761 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART 1762 Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a 1763 function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num) 1764 1765 If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to 1766 #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1 1767 to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you 1768 have not defined a custom partition 1769 1770- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support: 1771 CONFIG_FAT_WRITE 1772 1773 Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a 1774 file in FAT formatted partition. 1775 1776 This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the 1777 user to write files to FAT. 1778 1779CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support 1780 CONFIG_CMD_CBFS 1781 1782 Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot 1783 filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls 1784 and cbfsload. 1785 1786- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size: 1787 CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE 1788 1789 Define the max cluster size for fat operations else 1790 a default value of 65536 will be defined. 1791 1792- Keyboard Support: 1793 CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD 1794 1795 Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard 1796 support 1797 1798 CONFIG_I8042_KBD 1799 Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and 1800 GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support. 1801 Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc 1802 for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking. 1803 1804 CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB 1805 Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface. 1806 This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller 1807 which provides key scans on request. 1808 1809- Video support: 1810 CONFIG_VIDEO 1811 1812 Define this to enable video support (for output to 1813 video). 1814 1815 CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000 1816 1817 Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip 1818 1819 CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM 1820 Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The 1821 video output is selected via environment 'videoout' 1822 (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is 1823 assumed. 1824 1825 For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is 1826 selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways 1827 are possible: 1828 - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers. 1829 Following standard modes are supported (* is default): 1830 1831 Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024 1832 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1833 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307 1834 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319 1835 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A 1836 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B 1837 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1838 (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;) 1839 1840 - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed 1841 from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c) 1842 1843 1844 CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806 1845 Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp 1846 and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP 1847 or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP 1848 1849 CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB 1850 Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for 1851 SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU 1852 support, and should also define these other macros: 1853 1854 CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR 1855 CONFIG_VIDEO 1856 CONFIG_CMD_BMP 1857 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 1858 CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR 1859 CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE 1860 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 1861 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO 1862 1863 The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment 1864 variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during 1865 boot. See the documentation file README.video for a 1866 description of this variable. 1867 1868 CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA 1869 1870 Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you 1871 are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer 1872 driver. 1873 1874 1875- Keyboard Support: 1876 CONFIG_KEYBOARD 1877 1878 Define this to enable a custom keyboard support. 1879 This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be 1880 defined in your board-specific files. 1881 The only board using this so far is RBC823. 1882 1883- LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD 1884 1885 Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD 1886 display); also select one of the supported displays 1887 by defining one of these: 1888 1889 CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD: 1890 1891 HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320. 1892 1893 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33: 1894 1895 NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan. 1896 1897 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20 1898 1899 NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480. 1900 Active, color, single scan. 1901 1902 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54 1903 1904 NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480. 1905 Active, color, single scan. 1906 1907 CONFIG_SHARP_16x9 1908 1909 Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan. 1910 It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is. 1911 1912 CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341 1913 1914 Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480. 1915 Active, color, single scan. 1916 1917 CONFIG_HLD1045 1918 1919 HLD1045 display, 640x480. 1920 Active, color, single scan. 1921 1922 CONFIG_OPTREX_BW 1923 1924 Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5 1925 or 1926 Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T 1927 or 1928 Hitachi SP14Q002 1929 1930 320x240. Black & white. 1931 1932 Normally display is black on white background; define 1933 CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted. 1934 1935 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT 1936 1937 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (typically 4KB). If this is 1938 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead. 1939 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE 1940 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on 1941 a per-section basis. 1942 1943 CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES 1944 1945 When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of 1946 lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes 1947 the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling 1948 is slow. 1949 1950 CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION 1951 1952 Sometimes, for example if the display is mounted in portrait 1953 mode or even if it's mounted landscape but rotated by 180degree, 1954 we need to rotate our content of the display relative to the 1955 framebuffer, so that user can read the messages which are 1956 printed out. 1957 Once CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is defined, the lcd_console will be 1958 initialized with a given rotation from "vl_rot" out of 1959 "vidinfo_t" which is provided by the board specific code. 1960 The value for vl_rot is coded as following (matching to 1961 fbcon=rotate:<n> linux-kernel commandline): 1962 0 = no rotation respectively 0 degree 1963 1 = 90 degree rotation 1964 2 = 180 degree rotation 1965 3 = 270 degree rotation 1966 1967 If CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is not defined, the console will be 1968 initialized with 0degree rotation. 1969 1970 CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8 1971 1972 Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD. 1973 1974 CONFIG_I2C_EDID 1975 1976 Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID 1977 information over I2C from an attached LCD display. 1978 1979- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN 1980 1981 If this option is set, the environment is checked for 1982 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display 1983 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD 1984 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address 1985 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The 1986 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This 1987 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is 1988 loaded very quickly after power-on. 1989 1990 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD 1991 1992 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment 1993 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address 1994 (see README.displaying-bmps). 1995 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment 1996 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data 1997 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned 1998 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them) 1999 there is no need to set this option. 2000 2001 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN 2002 2003 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned 2004 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the 2005 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as 2006 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it 2007 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also 2008 specify 'm' for centering the image. 2009 2010 Example: 2011 setenv splashpos m,m 2012 => image at center of screen 2013 2014 setenv splashpos 30,20 2015 => image at x = 30 and y = 20 2016 2017 setenv splashpos -10,m 2018 => vertically centered image 2019 at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 2020 2021- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP 2022 2023 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP 2024 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the 2025 splashscreen support or the bmp command. 2026 2027- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8 2028 2029 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images 2030 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the 2031 bmp command. 2032 2033- Do compressing for memory range: 2034 CONFIG_CMD_ZIP 2035 2036 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method 2037 to compress the specified memory at its best effort. 2038 2039- Compression support: 2040 CONFIG_GZIP 2041 2042 Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images. 2043 2044 CONFIG_BZIP2 2045 2046 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed 2047 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip 2048 compressed images are supported. 2049 2050 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so 2051 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should 2052 be at least 4MB. 2053 2054 CONFIG_LZMA 2055 2056 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed 2057 images is included. 2058 2059 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it 2060 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the 2061 formula: 2062 2063 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) 2064 2065 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits 2066 and Literal pos bits. 2067 2068 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, 2069 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a 2070 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is 2071 a very small buffer. 2072 2073 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and 2074 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring 2075 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value). 2076 2077 CONFIG_LZO 2078 2079 If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images 2080 is included. 2081 2082- MII/PHY support: 2083 CONFIG_PHY_ADDR 2084 2085 The address of PHY on MII bus. 2086 2087 CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx) 2088 2089 The clock frequency of the MII bus 2090 2091 CONFIG_PHY_GIGE 2092 2093 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex 2094 detection of gigabit PHY is included. 2095 2096 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY 2097 2098 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 2099 reset before any MII register access is possible. 2100 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay 2101 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A) 2102 2103 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx) 2104 2105 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 2106 command issued before MII status register can be read 2107 2108- Ethernet address: 2109 CONFIG_ETHADDR 2110 CONFIG_ETH1ADDR 2111 CONFIG_ETH2ADDR 2112 CONFIG_ETH3ADDR 2113 CONFIG_ETH4ADDR 2114 CONFIG_ETH5ADDR 2115 2116 Define a default value for Ethernet address to use 2117 for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this 2118 is not determined automatically. 2119 2120- IP address: 2121 CONFIG_IPADDR 2122 2123 Define a default value for the IP address to use for 2124 the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not 2125 determined through e.g. bootp. 2126 (Environment variable "ipaddr") 2127 2128- Server IP address: 2129 CONFIG_SERVERIP 2130 2131 Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP 2132 server to contact when using the "tftboot" command. 2133 (Environment variable "serverip") 2134 2135 CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR 2136 2137 Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr' 2138 for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option) 2139 2140- Gateway IP address: 2141 CONFIG_GATEWAYIP 2142 2143 Defines a default value for the IP address of the 2144 default router where packets to other networks are 2145 sent to. 2146 (Environment variable "gatewayip") 2147 2148- Subnet mask: 2149 CONFIG_NETMASK 2150 2151 Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or 2152 routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP 2153 address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be 2154 forwarded through a router. 2155 (Environment variable "netmask") 2156 2157- Multicast TFTP Mode: 2158 CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP 2159 2160 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per 2161 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets 2162 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet 2163 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a 2164 multicast group. 2165 2166- BOOTP Recovery Mode: 2167 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY 2168 2169 If you have many targets in a network that try to 2170 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all 2171 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same 2172 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery 2173 from a power failure, when all systems will try to 2174 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining 2175 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be 2176 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The 2177 following delays are inserted then: 2178 2179 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec 2180 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec 2181 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec 2182 4th and following 2183 BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec 2184 2185 CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE 2186 2187 BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The 2188 server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and 2189 U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of 2190 an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses 2191 aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP 2192 ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to 2193 respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it 2194 takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that 2195 time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order 2196 to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these 2197 retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of 2198 IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this 2199 cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding 2200 requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers 2201 from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency. 2202 2203- DHCP Advanced Options: 2204 You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining 2205 CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols: 2206 2207 CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK 2208 CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY 2209 CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME 2210 CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN 2211 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH 2212 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE 2213 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 2214 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 2215 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME 2216 CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER 2217 CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET 2218 CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX 2219 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL 2220 2221 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip 2222 environment variable, not the BOOTP server. 2223 2224 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found 2225 after the configured retry count, the call will fail 2226 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over 2227 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server 2228 is not available. 2229 2230 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS 2231 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more 2232 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. 2233 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS 2234 serverip will be stored in the additional environment 2235 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always 2236 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 2237 is defined. 2238 2239 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable 2240 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they 2241 need the hostname of the DHCP requester. 2242 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content 2243 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as 2244 option 12 to the DHCP server. 2245 2246 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY 2247 2248 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between 2249 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request". 2250 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't 2251 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an 2252 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed 2253 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003 2254 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at 2255 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope 2256 that one of the retries will be successful but note that 2257 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than 2258 this delay. 2259 2260 - Link-local IP address negotiation: 2261 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network 2262 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. 2263 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed 2264 to exist in all environments that the device must operate. 2265 2266 See doc/README.link-local for more information. 2267 2268 - CDP Options: 2269 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID 2270 2271 The device id used in CDP trigger frames. 2272 2273 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX 2274 2275 A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address 2276 of the device. 2277 2278 CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID 2279 2280 A printf format string which contains the ascii name of 2281 the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets 2282 eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc. 2283 2284 CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES 2285 2286 A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities; 2287 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards. 2288 2289 CONFIG_CDP_VERSION 2290 2291 An ascii string containing the version of the software. 2292 2293 CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM 2294 2295 An ascii string containing the name of the platform. 2296 2297 CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER 2298 2299 A 32bit integer sent on the trigger. 2300 2301 CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION 2302 2303 A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the 2304 device in .1 of milliwatts. 2305 2306 CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE 2307 2308 A byte containing the id of the VLAN. 2309 2310- Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED 2311 2312 Several configurations allow to display the current 2313 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink 2314 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as 2315 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and 2316 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running 2317 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux 2318 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this 2319 feature in U-Boot. 2320 2321 Additional options: 2322 2323 CONFIG_GPIO_LED 2324 The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin. 2325 In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a 2326 status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED 2327 to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary. 2328 2329 CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE 2330 Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which 2331 case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and 2332 GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state. 2333 In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined 2334 with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity. 2335 2336- CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER 2337 2338 Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support 2339 on those systems that support this (optional) 2340 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. 2341 2342- I2C Support: CONFIG_SYS_I2C 2343 2344 This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use 2345 i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set 2346 CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c 2347 based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See 2348 common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line 2349 interface. 2350 2351 ported i2c driver to the new framework: 2352 - drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c: 2353 - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define 2354 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE 2355 for defining speed and slave address 2356 - activate second bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS2 define 2357 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_2 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_2 2358 for defining speed and slave address 2359 - activate third bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS3 define 2360 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_3 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_3 2361 for defining speed and slave address 2362 - activate fourth bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS4 define 2363 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_4 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_4 2364 for defining speed and slave address 2365 2366 - drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c: 2367 - activate i2c driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_FSL 2368 define CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_OFFSET for setting the register 2369 offset CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SPEED for the i2c speed and 2370 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SLAVE for the slave addr of the first 2371 bus. 2372 - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define 2373 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset 2374 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SPEED for the speed and 2375 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SLAVE for the slave address of the 2376 second bus. 2377 2378 - drivers/i2c/tegra_i2c.c: 2379 - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_TEGRA 2380 - This driver adds 4 i2c buses with a fix speed from 2381 100000 and the slave addr 0!

If you 2474 don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this 2475 is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can 2476 omit this define. 2477 2478 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS 2479 define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware. 2480 if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can 2481 omit this define. 2482 2483 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS 2484 define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected 2485 on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this 2486 define. 2487 2488 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES 2489 hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if 2490 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example 2491 a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and 2492 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9: 2493 2494 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES {{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2495 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \ 2496 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \ 2497 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \ 2498 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \ 2499 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \ 2500 {1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2501 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \ 2502 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \ 2503 } 2504 2505 which defines 2506 bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux 2507 bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1 2508 bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2 2509 bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3 2510 bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4 2511 bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5 2512 bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux 2513 bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1 2514 bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2 2515 2516 If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define. 2517 2518- Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C 2519 2520 NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which 2521 provides the following compelling advantages: 2522 2523 - more than one i2c adapter is usable 2524 - approved multibus support 2525 - better i2c mux support 2526 2527 ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. ** 2528 2529 These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining 2530 CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver 2531 for the selected CPU. 2532 2533 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot 2534 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in 2535 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime 2536 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the 2537 command line interface. 2538 2539 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. 2540 2541 There are several other quantities that must also be 2542 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2543 2544 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED 2545 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus 2546 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie 2547 the CPU's i2c node address). 2548 2549 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx 2550 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node 2551 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See, 2552 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set 2553 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0. 2554 2555 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX 2556 2557 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2558 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2559 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start 2560 commands until the slave device responds. 2561 2562 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2563 2564 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT) 2565 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are 2566 from include/configs/lwmon.h): 2567 2568 I2C_INIT 2569 2570 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C 2571 controller or configure ports. 2572 2573 eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL) 2574 2575 I2C_PORT 2576 2577 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code 2578 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values 2579 are 0..3 for ports A..D. 2580 2581 I2C_ACTIVE 2582 2583 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active 2584 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this 2585 define can be null. 2586 2587 eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA) 2588 2589 I2C_TRISTATE 2590 2591 The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated 2592 (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this 2593 define can be null. 2594 2595 eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA) 2596 2597 I2C_READ 2598 2599 Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high, 2600 false if it is low. 2601 2602 eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0) 2603 2604 I2C_SDA(bit) 2605 2606 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it 2607 is false, it clears it (low). 2608 2609 eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \ 2610 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \ 2611 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA 2612 2613 I2C_SCL(bit) 2614 2615 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it 2616 is false, it clears it (low). 2617 2618 eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \ 2619 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \ 2620 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL 2621 2622 I2C_DELAY 2623 2624 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this 2625 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus 2626 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something 2627 like: 2628 2629 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2) 2630 2631 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA 2632 2633 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h), 2634 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be 2635 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will 2636 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate. 2637 2638 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to 2639 the generic GPIO functions. 2640 2641 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD 2642 2643 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2644 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2645 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access 2646 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the 2647 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin 2648 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a 2649 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c 2650 is run early in the boot sequence. 2651 2652 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT 2653 2654 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is 2655 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in 2656 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() 2657 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus 2658 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c 2659 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of 2660 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus 2661 controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). 2662 2663 CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 2664 2665 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags 2666 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment 2667 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast) 2668 2669 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2670 2671 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which 2672 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is 2673 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command. 2674 Note that bus numbering is zero-based. 2675 2676 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES 2677 2678 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped 2679 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2680 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify 2681 a 1D array of device addresses 2682 2683 e.g. 2684 #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2685 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68} 2686 2687 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus 2688 2689 #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2690 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}} 2691 2692 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1 2693 2694 CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 2695 2696 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD. 2697 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0. 2698 2699 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM 2700 2701 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC. 2702 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0. 2703 2704 CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM 2705 2706 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT. 2707 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0. 2708 2709 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR: 2710 2711 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device. 2712 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for 2713 specified DTT device. 2714 2715 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START 2716 2717 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in 2718 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start 2719 between writing the address pointer and reading the 2720 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour 2721 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C 2722 devices can use either method, but some require one or 2723 the other. 2724 2725- SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI 2726 2727 Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with 2728 SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and 2729 D/As on the SACSng board) 2730 2731 CONFIG_SH_SPI 2732 2733 Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently 2734 only SH7757 is supported. 2735 2736 CONFIG_SPI_X 2737 2738 Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing. 2739 (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X) 2740 2741 CONFIG_SOFT_SPI 2742 2743 Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than 2744 using hardware support. This is a general purpose 2745 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins 2746 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is 2747 defined, the board configuration must define several 2748 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For 2749 an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h. 2750 2751 CONFIG_HARD_SPI 2752 2753 Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads 2754 and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration 2755 must define a list of chip-select function pointers. 2756 Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an 2757 example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h. 2758 2759 CONFIG_MXC_SPI 2760 2761 Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC 2762 SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported. 2763 2764 CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT 2765 Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed. 2766 default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100) /* 10 ms */ 2767 2768- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA 2769 2770 Enables FPGA subsystem. 2771 2772 CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor> 2773 2774 Enables support for specific chip vendors. 2775 (ALTERA, XILINX) 2776 2777 CONFIG_FPGA_<family> 2778 2779 Enables support for FPGA family. 2780 (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX) 2781 2782 CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT 2783 2784 Specify the number of FPGA devices to support. 2785 2786 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK 2787 2788 Enable support for fpga loadmk command 2789 2790 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP 2791 2792 Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream 2793 2794 CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP 2795 2796 Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream 2797 (Xilinx only) 2798 2799 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK 2800 2801 Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration. 2802 2803 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY 2804 2805 Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy 2806 status by the configuration function. This option 2807 will require a board or device specific function to 2808 be written. 2809 2810 CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY 2811 2812 If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA 2813 configuration driver. 2814 2815 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC 2816 Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration 2817 2818 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR 2819 2820 Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile 2821 loading. For example, abort during Virtex II 2822 configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which 2823 indicated a CRC error). 2824 2825 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT 2826 2827 Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to de-assert 2828 after PROB_B has been de-asserted during a Virtex II 2829 FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500 2830 ms. 2831 2832 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY 2833 2834 Maximum time to wait for BUSY to de-assert during 2835 Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms. 2836 2837 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG 2838 2839 Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is 2840 200 ms. 2841 2842- Configuration Management: 2843 CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET 2844 2845 Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary 2846 with a special header) as build targets. By defining 2847 CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this 2848 special image will be automatically built upon calling 2849 make / MAKEALL. 2850 2851 CONFIG_IDENT_STRING 2852 2853 If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot 2854 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION) 2855 2856- Vendor Parameter Protection: 2857 2858 U-Boot considers the values of the environment 2859 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and 2860 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that 2861 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and 2862 protects these variables from casual modification by 2863 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only, 2864 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can 2865 change this behaviour: 2866 2867 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config 2868 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is 2869 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete 2870 these parameters. 2871 2872 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR 2873 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default 2874 Ethernet address is installed in the environment, 2875 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The 2876 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains 2877 read-only.] 2878 2879 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way 2880 for any variable by configuring the type of access 2881 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable 2882 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC. 2883 2884- Protected RAM: 2885 CONFIG_PRAM 2886 2887 Define this variable to enable the reservation of 2888 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten 2889 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of 2890 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite 2891 this default value by defining an environment 2892 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to 2893 reserve. Note that the board info structure will 2894 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is 2895 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will 2896 automatically be defined to hold the amount of 2897 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot 2898 argument to Linux, for instance like that: 2899 2900 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem} 2901 saveenv 2902 2903 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory, 2904 either, which results in a memory region that will 2905 not be affected by reboots. 2906 2907 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic 2908 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that 2909 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the 2910 following board configurations are known to be 2911 "pRAM-clean": 2912 2913 IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL, 2914 HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, 2915 FLAGADM, TQM8260 2916 2917- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB) 2918 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not 2919 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures 2920 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit 2921 machines using physical address extension or similar. 2922 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which 2923 currently only supports clearing the memory. 2924 2925- Error Recovery: 2926 CONFIG_PANIC_HANG 2927 2928 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a 2929 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually. 2930 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded 2931 system where you want the system to reboot 2932 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be 2933 useful during development since you can try to debug 2934 the conditions that lead to the situation. 2935 2936 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT 2937 2938 This variable defines the number of retries for 2939 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP 2940 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a 2941 default value of 5 is used. 2942 2943 CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT 2944 2945 Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds. 2946 2947 CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 2948 2949 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol. 2950 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command, 2951 try longer timeout such as 2952 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL 2953 2954- Command Interpreter: 2955 CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE 2956 2957 Enable auto completion of commands using TAB. 2958 2959 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 2960 2961 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is 2962 printed when the command interpreter needs more input 2963 to complete a command. Usually "> ". 2964 2965 Note: 2966 2967 In the current implementation, the local variables 2968 space and global environment variables space are 2969 separated. Local variables are those you define by 2970 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local 2971 variable later on, you have write `$name' or 2972 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable 2973 directly type `$name' at the command prompt. 2974 2975 Global environment variables are those you use 2976 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored 2977 in such a variable, you need to use the run command, 2978 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them. 2979 2980 To store commands and special characters in a 2981 variable, please use double quotation marks 2982 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead 2983 of the backslashes before semicolons and special 2984 symbols. 2985 2986- Command Line Editing and History: 2987 CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING 2988 2989 Enable editing and History functions for interactive 2990 command line input operations 2991 2992- Default Environment: 2993 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS 2994 2995 Define this to contain any number of null terminated 2996 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of 2997 the default environment compiled into the boot image. 2998 2999 For example, place something like this in your 3000 board's config file: 3001 3002 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \ 3003 "myvar1=value1\0" \ 3004 "myvar2=value2\0" 3005 3006 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the 3007 internal format how the environment is stored by the 3008 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported 3009 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format 3010 will change soon, there is no guarantee either. 3011 You better know what you are doing here. 3012 3013 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is 3014 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset 3015 the environment like the "source" command or the 3016 boot command first. 3017 3018 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG 3019 3020 Define this in order to add variables describing the 3021 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment. 3022 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc. 3023 3024 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined: 3025 3026 - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH 3027 - CONFIG_SYS_CPU 3028 - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD 3029 - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR 3030 - CONFIG_SYS_SOC 3031 3032 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG 3033 3034 Define this in order to add variables describing certain 3035 run-time determined information about the hardware to the 3036 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev. 3037 3038 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT 3039 3040 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is 3041 initialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits 3042 that so that the environment is not available until 3043 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 3044 this is instead controlled by the value of 3045 /config/load-environment. 3046 3047- DataFlash Support: 3048 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH 3049 3050 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and 3051 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard 3052 commands cp, md... 3053 3054- Serial Flash support 3055 CONFIG_CMD_SF 3056 3057 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands 3058 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'. 3059 3060 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial 3061 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update 3062 commands. 3063 3064 The following defaults may be provided by the platform 3065 to handle the common case when only a single serial 3066 flash is present on the system. 3067 3068 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier 3069 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select 3070 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h) 3071 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz 3072 3073 CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST 3074 3075 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash 3076 test ('sf test'). 3077 3078 CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg 3079 3080 Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr 3081 support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes. 3082 3083 CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH Dual flash memories 3084 3085 Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash 3086 memories can be connected with a given cs line. 3087 Currently Xilinx Zynq qspi supports these type of connections. 3088 3089- SystemACE Support: 3090 CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 3091 3092 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE 3093 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address 3094 of the chip must also be defined in the 3095 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example: 3096 3097 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 3098 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000 3099 3100 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type 3101 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls. 3102 3103- TFTP Fixed UDP Port: 3104 CONFIG_TFTP_PORT 3105 3106 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp 3107 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value. 3108 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port 3109 number generator is used. 3110 3111 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply 3112 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't 3113 defined, the normal port 69 is used. 3114 3115 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to 3116 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured 3117 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of 3118 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing 3119 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally. 3120 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall, 3121 but sometimes that is not allowed. 3122 3123- Hashing support: 3124 CONFIG_CMD_HASH 3125 3126 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce 3127 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256). 3128 3129 CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY 3130 3131 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code 3132 size a little. 3133 3134 CONFIG_SHA1 - This option enables support of hashing using SHA1 3135 algorithm. The hash is calculated in software. 3136 CONFIG_SHA256 - This option enables support of hashing using 3137 SHA256 algorithm. The hash is calculated in software. 3138 CONFIG_SHA_HW_ACCEL - This option enables hardware acceleration 3139 for SHA1/SHA256 hashing. 3140 This affects the 'hash' command and also the 3141 hash_lookup_algo() function. 3142 CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL - This option enables 3143 hardware-acceleration for SHA1/SHA256 progressive hashing. 3144 Data can be streamed in a block at a time and the hashing 3145 is performed in hardware. 3146 3147 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps 3148 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'. 3149 3150- Freescale i.MX specific commands: 3151 CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT 3152 This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an 3153 HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific. 3154 3155 CONFIG_CMD_BMODE 3156 This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing 3157 a boot from specific media. 3158 3159 This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to 3160 activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating 3161 on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal 3162 will set it back to normal. This command currently 3163 supports i.MX53 and i.MX6. 3164 3165- Signing support: 3166 CONFIG_RSA 3167 3168 This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification 3169 in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information. 3170 3171 The Modular Exponentiation algorithm in RSA is implemented using 3172 driver model. So CONFIG_DM needs to be enabled by default for this 3173 library to function. 3174 3175 The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this 3176 option. The software based modular exponentiation is built into 3177 mkimage irrespective of this option. 3178 3179- bootcount support: 3180 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT 3181 3182 This enables the bootcounter support, see: 3183 http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit 3184 3185 CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE 3186 enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards. 3187 CONFIG_BLACKFIN 3188 enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards. 3189 CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX 3190 enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards. 3191 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM 3192 enable support for the bootcounter in RAM 3193 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C 3194 enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device. 3195 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address 3196 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for 3197 the bootcounter. 3198 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len 3199 3200- Show boot progress: 3201 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS 3202 3203 Defining this option allows to add some board- 3204 specific code (calling a user-provided function 3205 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show 3206 the system's boot progress on some display (for 3207 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment, 3208 the following checkpoints are implemented: 3209 3210 3211Legacy uImage format: 3212 3213 Arg Where When 3214 1 common/cmd_bootm.c before attempting to boot an image 3215 -1

3372 disable the legacy image format 3373 3374 This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is 3375 enabled per default for backward compatibility. 3376 3377- FIT image support: 3378 CONFIG_FIT 3379 Enable support for the FIT uImage format. 3380 3381 CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH 3382 When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the 3383 one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of 3384 U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the 3385 most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node. 3386 The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored. 3387 3388 CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE 3389 This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages, 3390 using a hash signed and verified using RSA. If 3391 CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL is defined, i.e support for progressive 3392 hashing is available using hardware, RSA library will use it. 3393 See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details. 3394 3395 WARNING: When relying on signed FIT images with required 3396 signature check the legacy image format is default 3397 disabled. If a board need legacy image format support 3398 enable this through CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY 3399 3400 CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256 3401 Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size. 3402 For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled 3403 with this option. 3404 3405- Standalone program support: 3406 CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR 3407 3408 This option defines a board specific value for the 3409 address where standalone program gets loaded, thus 3410 overwriting the architecture dependent default 3411 settings. 3412 3413- Frame Buffer Address: 3414 CONFIG_FB_ADDR 3415 3416 Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific 3417 address for frame buffer. This is typically the case 3418 when using a graphics controller has separate video 3419 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at 3420 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it 3421 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs 3422 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the 3423 configured panel size. 3424 3425 Please see board_init_f function. 3426 3427- Automatic software updates via TFTP server 3428 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP 3429 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX 3430 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX 3431 3432 These options enable and control the auto-update feature; 3433 for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update. 3434 3435- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support) 3436 CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE 3437 3438 Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel. 3439 Needed for mtdparts command support. 3440 3441 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS 3442 3443 Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux 3444 kernel. Needed for UBI support. 3445 3446- UBI support 3447 CONFIG_CMD_UBI 3448 3449 Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted 3450 with the UBI flash translation layer 3451 3452 Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE 3453 3454 CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG 3455 3456 Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing. This leaves 3457 warnings and errors enabled. 3458 3459 3460 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD 3461 This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest 3462 erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks 3463 of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing 3464 wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase 3465 counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter. 3466 3467 The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and 3468 other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more. 3469 However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock 3470 life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g., 3471 to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2). 3472 3473 default: 4096 3474 3475 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT 3476 This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI 3477 expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the 3478 underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR 3479 flash), this value is ignored. 3480 3481 NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM 3482 (Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime. 3483 The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks 3484 then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)", 3485 which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total 3486 count of eraseblocks on the chip). 3487 3488 To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to 3489 reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks 3490 handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire 3491 NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means 3492 that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad 3493 eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same 3494 size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a 3495 partition. 3496 3497 default: 20 3498 3499 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP 3500 Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device 3501 in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it 3502 only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device. 3503 The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach 3504 the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where 3505 attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install 3506 a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter 3507 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note 3508 that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations 3509 without fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap 3510 fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps. 3511 3512 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT 3513 Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images 3514 without a fastmap. 3515 default: 0 3516 3517- UBIFS support 3518 CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS 3519 3520 Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as 3521 UBIFS. UBIFS is read-only in u-boot. 3522 3523 Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO 3524 3525 CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG 3526 3527 Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing. This leaves 3528 warnings and errors enabled. 3529 3530- SPL framework 3531 CONFIG_SPL 3532 Enable building of SPL globally. 3533 3534 CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT 3535 LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary. 3536 3537 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT 3538 Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included. 3539 When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory 3540 used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it. 3541 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 3542 must not be both defined at the same time. 3543 3544 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE 3545 Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and 3546 linker lists sections), BSS excluded. 3547 When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does 3548 not exceed it. 3549 3550 CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE 3551 TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary. 3552 3553 CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE 3554 Address to relocate to. If unspecified, this is equal to 3555 CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done). 3556 3557 CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR 3558 Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary. 3559 3560 CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 3561 Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS. 3562 When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used 3563 by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it. 3564 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 3565 must not be both defined at the same time. 3566 3567 CONFIG_SPL_STACK 3568 Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use 3569 3570 CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE 3571 When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has 3572 loaded does not have a signature. 3573 Defining this is useful when code which loads images 3574 in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors 3575 will be caught. 3576 An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will 3577 consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad, 3578 and thus should be skipped silently. 3579 3580 CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK 3581 Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after 3582 relocation. If unspecified, this is equal to 3583 CONFIG_SPL_STACK. 3584 3585 CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START 3586 Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL. 3587 3588 CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE 3589 The size of the malloc pool used in SPL. 3590 3591 CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK 3592 Enable the SPL framework under common/. This framework 3593 supports MMC, NAND and YMODEM loading of U-Boot and NAND 3594 NAND loading of the Linux Kernel. 3595 3596 CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT 3597 Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL. 3598 See also: doc/README.falcon 3599 3600 CONFIG_SPL_DISPLAY_PRINT 3601 For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information 3602 about the running system. 3603 3604 CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL 3605 Arch init code should be built for a very small image 3606 3607 CONFIG_SPL_LIBCOMMON_SUPPORT 3608 Support for common/libcommon.o in SPL binary 3609 3610 CONFIG_SPL_LIBDISK_SUPPORT 3611 Support for disk/libdisk.o in SPL binary 3612 3613 CONFIG_SPL_I2C_SUPPORT 3614 Support for drivers/i2c/libi2c.o in SPL binary 3615 3616 CONFIG_SPL_GPIO_SUPPORT 3617 Support for drivers/gpio/libgpio.o in SPL binary 3618 3619 CONFIG_SPL_MMC_SUPPORT 3620 Support for drivers/mmc/libmmc.o in SPL binary 3621 3622 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_SECTOR, 3623 CONFIG_SYS_U_BOOT_MAX_SIZE_SECTORS, 3624 Address and partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from 3625 when the MMC is being used in raw mode. 3626 3627 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION 3628 Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being 3629 used in raw mode 3630 3631 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR 3632 Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being 3633 used in raw mode (for Falcon mode) 3634 3635 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR, 3636 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS 3637 Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument 3638 parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode 3639 (for falcon mode) 3640 3641 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION 3642 Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being 3643 used in fs mode 3644 3645 CONFIG_SPL_FAT_SUPPORT 3646 Support for fs/fat/libfat.o in SPL binary 3647 3648 CONFIG_SPL_EXT_SUPPORT 3649 Support for EXT filesystem in SPL binary 3650 3651 CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_PAYLOAD_NAME 3652 Filename to read to load U-Boot when reading from filesystem 3653 3654 CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_KERNEL_NAME 3655 Filename to read to load kernel uImage when reading 3656 from filesystem (for Falcon mode) 3657 3658 CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_ARGS_NAME 3659 Filename to read to load kernel argument parameters 3660 when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode) 3661 3662 CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND 3663 Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that 3664 start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before 3665 continuing (the hardware starts execution after just 3666 loading the first page rather than the full 4K). 3667 3668 CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE 3669 Avoid SPL relocation 3670 3671 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE 3672 Include nand_base.c in the SPL. Requires 3673 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS. 3674 3675 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS 3676 SPL uses normal NAND drivers, not minimal drivers. 3677 3678 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC 3679 Include standard software ECC in the SPL 3680 3681 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE 3682 Support for NAND boot using simple NAND drivers that 3683 expose the cmd_ctrl() interface. 3684 3685 CONFIG_SPL_MTD_SUPPORT 3686 Support for the MTD subsystem within SPL. Useful for 3687 environment on NAND support within SPL. 3688 3689 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY 3690 Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only 3691 if you need to save space. 3692 3693 CONFIG_SPL_MPC8XXX_INIT_DDR_SUPPORT 3694 Set for the SPL on PPC mpc8xxx targets, support for 3695 drivers/ddr/fsl/libddr.o in SPL binary. 3696 3697 CONFIG_SPL_COMMON_INIT_DDR 3698 Set for common ddr init with serial presence detect in 3699 SPL binary. 3700 3701 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT, 3702 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE, 3703 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS, 3704 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE, 3705 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES 3706 Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses 3707 to read U-Boot 3708 3709 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT 3710 Add support NAND boot 3711 3712 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS 3713 Location in NAND to read U-Boot from 3714 3715 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST 3716 Location in memory to load U-Boot to 3717 3718 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE 3719 Size of image to load 3720 3721 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START 3722 Entry point in loaded image to jump to 3723 3724 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST 3725 Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the 3726 data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms. 3727 3728 CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND 3729 Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the 3730 ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present. 3731 3732 CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT 3733 Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary 3734 3735 CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT 3736 Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary 3737 3738 CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUPPORT 3739 Support for drivers/spi/libspi.o in SPL binary 3740 3741 CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE 3742 Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary 3743 3744 CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT 3745 Support for lib/libgeneric.o in SPL binary 3746 3747 CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT 3748 Support for the environment operating in SPL binary 3749 3750 CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT 3751 Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary. 3752 It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by 3753 CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE 3754 3755 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO 3756 Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending 3757 the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as 3758 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3759 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3760 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3761 3762 CONFIG_SPL_TARGET 3763 Final target image containing SPL and payload. Some SPLs 3764 use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for 3765 example if more than one image needs to be produced. 3766 3767 CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT 3768 Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of 3769 code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this 3770 option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the 3771 bootm command when booting a FIT image. 3772 3773- TPL framework 3774 CONFIG_TPL 3775 Enable building of TPL globally. 3776 3777 CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO 3778 Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending 3779 the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as 3780 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3781 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3782 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3783 3784Modem Support: 3785-------------- 3786 3787[so far only for SMDK2400 boards] 3788 3789- Modem support enable: 3790 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT 3791 3792- RTS/CTS Flow control enable: 3793 CONFIG_HWFLOW 3794 3795- Modem debug support: 3796 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG 3797 3798 Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg()) 3799 for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000. 3800 3801- Interrupt support (PPC): 3802 3803 There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt() 3804 for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu() 3805 for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu() 3806 should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If 3807 CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt 3808 (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero. 3809 timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU 3810 specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led 3811 / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from 3812 general timer_interrupt(). 3813 3814- General: 3815 3816 In the target system modem support is enabled when a 3817 specific key (key combination) is pressed during 3818 power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally 3819 (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from 3820 board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy 3821 function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem 3822 initialization. 3823 3824 If there are no modem init strings in the 3825 environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the 3826 previous output (banner, info printfs) will be 3827 suppressed, though. 3828 3829 See also: doc/README.Modem 3830 3831Board initialization settings: 3832------------------------------ 3833 3834During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions 3835to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup 3836before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the 3837following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is 3838architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c 3839typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). 3840 3841- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() 3842- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() 3843- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() 3844- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() 3845 3846Configuration Settings: 3847----------------------- 3848 3849- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit. 3850 Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands. 3851 3852- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included; 3853 undefine this when you're short of memory. 3854 3855- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default 3856 width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output. 3857 3858- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to 3859 prompt for user input. 3860 3861- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console 3862 3863- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output 3864 3865- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands 3866 3867- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to 3868 the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is 3869 booted 3870 3871- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE: 3872 List of legal baudrate settings for this board. 3873 3874- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET 3875 Suppress display of console information at boot. 3876 3877- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 3878 If the board specific function 3879 extern int overwrite_console (void); 3880 returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the 3881 serial port, else the settings in the environment are used. 3882 3883- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE 3884 Enable the call to overwrite_console(). 3885 3886- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE 3887 Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings. 3888 3889- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END: 3890 Begin and End addresses of the area used by the 3891 simple memory test. 3892 3893- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST: 3894 Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test. 3895 3896- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH: 3897 Scratch address used by the alternate memory test 3898 You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable 3899 3900- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only): 3901 If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, 3902 this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top 3903 (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By 3904 fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed 3905 the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either. 3906 This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux 3907 board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that 3908 recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup 3909 will have to get fixed in Linux additionally. 3910 3911 This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx 3912 CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't 3913 be touched. 3914 3915 WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of 3916 the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case, 3917 then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a 3918 non page size aligned address and this could cause major 3919 problems. 3920 3921- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE: 3922 Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download 3923 3924- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE: 3925 Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here. 3926 3927- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE: 3928 Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a 3929 Cogent motherboard) 3930 3931- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE: 3932 Physical start address of Flash memory. 3933 3934- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE: 3935 Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by 3936 make config files to be same as the text base address 3937 (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as 3938 CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash. 3939 3940- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN: 3941 Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to 3942 determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is 3943 embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate 3944 flash sector. 3945 3946- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN: 3947 Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use. 3948 3949- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN 3950 Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If 3951 this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation 3952 will become available before relocation. The address is just 3953 below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make 3954 space. 3955 3956 This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses 3957 within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc() 3958 is not available. free() is supported but does nothing. 3959 The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when 3960 U-Boot relocates itself. 3961 3962 Pre-relocation malloc() is only supported on ARM and sandbox 3963 at present but is fairly easy to enable for other archs. 3964 3965- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE 3966 Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those 3967 boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is 3968 enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START). 3969 3970- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY: 3971 Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be 3972 typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped 3973 uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would 3974 otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For 3975 some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the 3976 cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed 3977 are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding 3978 cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e. 3979 if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the 3980 size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of 3981 one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has 3982 written to another region in the same cache-line. This can 3983 happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for 3984 buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g. 3985 16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes). 3986 3987 Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present. 3988 3989- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN: 3990 Normally compressed uImages are limited to an 3991 uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough, 3992 you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file 3993 to adjust this setting to your needs. 3994 3995- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ: 3996 Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of 3997 the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by 3998 the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if 3999 used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low" 4000 environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case 4001 all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low" 4002 and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment 4003 variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of 4004 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined, 4005 then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead. 4006 4007- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH: 4008 Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the 4009 initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand 4010 is enabled. 4011 4012- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE: 4013 Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between 4014 "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 4015 4016- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD: 4017 Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in 4018 space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 4019 4020- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS: 4021 Max number of Flash memory banks 4022 4023- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT: 4024 Max number of sectors on a Flash chip 4025 4026- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT: 4027 Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms) 4028 4029- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT: 4030 Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms) 4031 4032- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT 4033 Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms) 4034 4035- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT 4036 Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms) 4037 4038- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION 4039 If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used 4040 instead of U-Boot software protection. 4041 4042- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP: 4043 4044 Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory; 4045 without this option such a download has to be 4046 performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2) 4047 copy from RAM to flash. 4048 4049 The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since 4050 you can check if the download worked before you erase 4051 the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is 4052 too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the 4053 downloaded image) this option may be very useful. 4054 4055- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI: 4056 Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the 4057 common flash structure for storing flash geometry. 4058 4059- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER 4060 This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver 4061 in the drivers directory 4062 4063- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD 4064 This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver 4065 in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash 4066 to the MTD layer. 4067 4068- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE 4069 Use buffered writes to flash. 4070 4071- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N 4072 s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered 4073 write commands. 4074 4075- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST 4076 If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't 4077 print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This 4078 is useful, if some of the configured banks are only 4079 optionally available. 4080 4081- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS 4082 If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown 4083 digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80 4084 column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays. 4085 4086- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY 4087 If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared 4088 against the source after the write operation. An error message 4089 will be printed when the contents are not identical. 4090 Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases, 4091 since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier 4092 while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable 4093 this option if you really know what you are doing. 4094 4095- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER: 4096 Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some 4097 Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value 4098 to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all 4099 buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface 4100 on high Ethernet traffic. 4101 Defaults to 4 if not defined. 4102 4103- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES 4104 4105 Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used 4106 internally to store the environment settings. The default 4107 setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most 4108 cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see 4109 lib/hashtable.c for details. 4110 4111- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 4112- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 4113 Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when 4114 calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal, 4115 hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined, 4116 the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address. 4117 4118 The format of the list is: 4119 type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m] 4120 access_attribute = [a|r|o|c] 4121 attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute] 4122 entry = variable_name[:attributes] 4123 list = entry[,list] 4124 4125 The type attributes are: 4126 s - String (default) 4127 d - Decimal 4128 x - Hexadecimal 4129 b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF]) 4130 i - IP address 4131 m - MAC address 4132 4133 The access attributes are: 4134 a - Any (default) 4135 r - Read-only 4136 o - Write-once 4137 c - Change-default 4138 4139 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 4140 Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags" 4141 environment variable in the default or embedded environment. 4142 4143 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 4144 Define this to a list (string) to define validation that 4145 should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags" 4146 environment variable. To override a setting in the static 4147 list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the 4148 ".flags" variable. 4149 4150- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE 4151 If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable 4152 access flags. 4153 4154- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD 4155 This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the 4156 architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards 4157 to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the 4158 arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and 4159 common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture 4160 must support it (i.e. must select HAVE_GENERIC_BOARD in arch/Kconfig). 4161 If you find problems enabling this option on your board please report 4162 the problem and send patches! 4163 4164- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only) 4165 This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should 4166 be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how 4167 the value can be calculated on a given board. 4168 4169- CONFIG_USE_STDINT 4170 If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this 4171 option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when 4172 building U-Boot to enable this. 4173 4174The following definitions that deal with the placement and management 4175of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the 4176following configurations: 4177 4178- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC: 4179 4180 Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils 4181 may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images. 4182 4183- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH: 4184 4185 Define this if the environment is in flash memory. 4186 4187 a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is 4188 "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This 4189 happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot 4190 sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller 4191 sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a 4192 layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In 4193 such a case you would place the environment in one of the 4194 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With 4195 "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the 4196 environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap 4197 between U-Boot and the environment. 4198 4199 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4200 4201 Offset of environment data (variable area) to the 4202 beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot 4203 type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset 4204 for this sector is given here. 4205 4206 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE. 4207 4208 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 4209 4210 This is just another way to specify the start address of 4211 the flash sector containing the environment (instead of 4212 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET). 4213 4214 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: 4215 4216 Size of the sector containing the environment. 4217 4218 4219 b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. 4220 In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for 4221 the environment. 4222 4223 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4224 4225 If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 4226 and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part 4227 of this flash sector for the environment. This saves 4228 memory for the RAM copy of the environment. 4229 4230 It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this 4231 when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, 4232 since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used 4233 for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is 4234 STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view: 4235 updating the environment in flash makes it always 4236 necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes 4237 wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in 4238 RAM, your target system will be dead. 4239 4240 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND 4241 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND 4242 4243 These settings describe a second storage area used to hold 4244 a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is 4245 a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during 4246 a "saveenv" operation. 4247 4248BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the 4249source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds* 4250accordingly! 4251 4252 4253- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM: 4254 4255 Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device 4256 (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the 4257 environment. 4258 4259 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 4260 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4261 4262 These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you 4263 want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory 4264 can just be read and written to, without any special 4265 provision. 4266 4267BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early 4268in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the 4269console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or 4270U-Boot will hang. 4271 4272Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the 4273environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to 4274keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv" 4275to save the current settings. 4276 4277 4278- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM: 4279 4280 Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access 4281 device and a driver for it. 4282 4283 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4284 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4285 4286 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the 4287 environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM. 4288 4289 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR: 4290 If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device. 4291 The default address is zero. 4292 4293 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_BUS: 4294 If defined, specified the i2c bus of the EEPROM device. 4295 4296 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS: 4297 If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a 4298 single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example 4299 would require six bits. 4300 4301 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS: 4302 If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between 4303 page writes. The default is zero milliseconds. 4304 4305 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN: 4306 The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note 4307 that this is NOT the chip address length! 4308 4309 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW: 4310 EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones 4311 like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of 4312 address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit 4313 slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256 4314 byte chips. 4315 4316 Note that we consider the length of the address field to 4317 still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden 4318 in the chip address. 4319 4320 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE: 4321 The size in bytes of the EEPROM device. 4322 4323 - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C 4324 define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your 4325 EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus. 4326 4327 - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 4328 if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over 4329 I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this 4330 EEPROM. For example: 4331 4332 #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 1 4333 4334 EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over 4335 a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3. 4336 4337- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH: 4338 4339 Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you 4340 want to use for the environment. 4341 4342 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4343 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 4344 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4345 4346 These three #defines specify the offset and size of the 4347 environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed 4348 at the specified address. 4349 4350- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH: 4351 4352 Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you 4353 want to use for the environment. 4354 4355 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4356 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4357 4358 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the 4359 environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be 4360 aligned to an erase sector boundary. 4361 4362 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: 4363 4364 Define the SPI flash's sector size. 4365 4366 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 4367 4368 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE 4369 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so 4370 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure 4371 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be 4372 aligned to an erase sector boundary. 4373 4374 - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional): 4375 - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional): 4376 4377 Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0. 4378 4379 - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional): 4380 4381 Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz. 4382 4383 - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional): 4384 4385 Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3. 4386 4387- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE: 4388 4389 Define this if you have a remote memory space which you 4390 want to use for the local device's environment. 4391 4392 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 4393 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4394 4395 These two #defines specify the address and size of the 4396 environment area within the remote memory space. The 4397 local device can get the environment from remote memory 4398 space by SRIO or PCIE links. 4399 4400BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use 4401"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the 4402environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link, 4403but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface. 4404 4405- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND: 4406 4407 Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use 4408 for the environment. 4409 4410 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4411 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4412 4413 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 4414 area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be 4415 aligned to an erase block boundary. 4416 4417 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 4418 4419 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE 4420 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so 4421 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure 4422 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be 4423 aligned to an erase block boundary. 4424 4425 - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional): 4426 4427 Specifies the length of the region in which the environment 4428 can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's 4429 block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than 4430 are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within 4431 the range to be avoided. 4432 4433 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional): 4434 4435 Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the 4436 environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The 4437 "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset. 4438 Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when 4439 using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB. 4440 4441- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST 4442 4443 Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the 4444 environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to 4445 CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 4446 4447- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI: 4448 4449 Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the 4450 environment. This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment 4451 accesses, which is important on NAND. 4452 4453 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART: 4454 4455 Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI. 4456 4457 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME: 4458 4459 Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the 4460 environment in. 4461 4462 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND: 4463 4464 Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of 4465 the environment in. This will enable redundant environments in UBI. 4466 It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition. 4467 4468 - CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG 4469 - CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG 4470 4471 You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system 4472 when storing the env in UBI. 4473 4474- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT: 4475 Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment. 4476 4477 - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE: 4478 4479 Define this to a string that is the name of the block device. 4480 4481 - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART: 4482 4483 Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can 4484 be as following: 4485 4486 "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1) 4487 - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no 4488 partition table. 4489 - "D:0": device D. 4490 - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition 4491 table, or the whole device D if has no partition 4492 table. 4493 - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set. 4494 If none, first valid partition in device D. If no 4495 partition table then means device D. 4496 4497 - FAT_ENV_FILE: 4498 4499 It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the 4500 environment. 4501 4502 - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE: 4503 This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the environment file. 4504 4505- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC: 4506 4507 Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the 4508 environment. 4509 4510 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV: 4511 4512 Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in. 4513 4514 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional): 4515 4516 Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not 4517 set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be 4518 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition). 4519 4520 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 4521 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 4522 4523 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 4524 area within the specified MMC device. 4525 4526 If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to 4527 the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated 4528 as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if 4529 your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have 4530 different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the 4531 environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the 4532 maximum possible space before it, to store other data. 4533 4534 These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an 4535 MMC sector boundary. 4536 4537 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 4538 4539 Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to 4540 hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a 4541 valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due 4542 to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation. 4543 4544 This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the 4545 same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET. 4546 4547 This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to 4548 an MMC sector boundary. 4549 4550 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional): 4551 4552 This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is 4553 set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as 4554 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 4555 4556- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET 4557 4558 Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The 4559 area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment 4560 is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte 4561 scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization 4562 calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems 4563 to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the 4564 start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer. 4565 4566Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor 4567has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been 4568created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f() 4569until then to read environment variables. 4570 4571The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor 4572is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working 4573with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is 4574necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the 4575"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't 4576have any device yet where we could complain.] 4577 4578Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if 4579the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you 4580use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment. 4581 4582- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN: 4583 Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED. 4584 4585 Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR 4586 also needs to be defined. 4587 4588- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR: 4589 MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state. 4590 4591- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS: 4592 Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init 4593 and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at 4594 drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving 4595 space for already greatly restricted images, including but not 4596 limited to NAND_SPL configurations. 4597 4598- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO 4599 Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on 4600 when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called 4601 to do this. 4602 4603- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE 4604 Similar to the previous option, but display this information 4605 later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if 4606 present. 4607 4608- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT: 4609 Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the 4610 build system checks that the actual size does not 4611 exceed it. 4612 4613Low Level (hardware related) configuration options: 4614--------------------------------------------------- 4615 4616- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE: 4617 Cache Line Size of the CPU. 4618 4619- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR: 4620 Default address of the IMMR after system reset. 4621 4622 Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU, 4623 and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of 4624 the IMMR register after a reset. 4625 4626- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT: 4627 Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale 4628 PowerPC SOCs. 4629 4630- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR: 4631 Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically 4632 the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. 4633 4634 CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value, 4635 for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead. 4636 4637- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS: 4638 Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new 4639 physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should 4640 be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the 4641 same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR 4642 is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended 4643 that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros: 4644 4645 #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH 4646 * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW) 4647 4648- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH: 4649 Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically 4650 either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is 4651 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 4652 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 4653 4654- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW: 4655 Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is 4656 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 4657 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 4658 4659- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE: 4660 If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be 4661 forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated. 4662 4663- Floppy Disk Support: 4664 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER 4665 4666 the default drive number (default value 0) 4667 4668 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE 4669 4670 defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers 4671 (default value 1) 4672 4673 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET 4674 4675 defines the offset of register from address. It 4676 depends on which part of the data bus is connected to 4677 the FDC chipset. (default value 0) 4678 4679 If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and 4680 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their 4681 default value. 4682 4683 if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function 4684 fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC 4685 setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board 4686 source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent 4687 initializations. 4688 4689- CONFIG_IDE_AHB: 4690 Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI 4691 interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface. 4692 When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to 4693 IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional 4694 registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller 4695 is required. 4696 4697- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory. 4698 DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're 4699 doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only] 4700 4701- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR: 4702 4703 Start address of memory area that can be used for 4704 initial data and stack; please note that this must be 4705 writable memory that is working WITHOUT special 4706 initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which 4707 will become available only after programming the 4708 memory controller and running certain initialization 4709 sequences. 4710 4711 U-Boot uses the following memory types: 4712 - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU) 4713 - MPC824X: data cache 4714 - PPC4xx: data cache 4715 4716- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET: 4717 4718 Offset of the initial data structure in the memory 4719 area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually 4720 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial 4721 data is located at the end of the available space 4722 (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - 4723 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just 4724 below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + 4725 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward. 4726 4727 Note: 4728 On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data 4729 cache for initial memory) the address chosen for 4730 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must 4731 point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between 4732 the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space. 4733 4734- CONFIG_SYS_SIUMCR: SIU Module Configuration (11-6) 4735 4736- CONFIG_SYS_SYPCR: System Protection Control (11-9) 4737 4738- CONFIG_SYS_TBSCR: Time Base Status and Control (11-26) 4739 4740- CONFIG_SYS_PISCR: Periodic Interrupt Status and Control (11-31) 4741 4742- CONFIG_SYS_PLPRCR: PLL, Low-Power, and Reset Control Register (15-30) 4743 4744- CONFIG_SYS_SCCR: System Clock and reset Control Register (15-27) 4745 4746- CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM: 4747 SDRAM timing 4748 4749- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA: 4750 periodic timer for refresh 4751 4752- CONFIG_SYS_DER: Debug Event Register (37-47) 4753 4754- FLASH_BASE0_PRELIM, FLASH_BASE1_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_REMAP_OR_AM, 4755 CONFIG_SYS_PRELIM_OR_AM, CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_FLASH, CONFIG_SYS_OR0_REMAP, 4756 CONFIG_SYS_OR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_REMAP, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_PRELIM, 4757 CONFIG_SYS_BR1_PRELIM: 4758 Memory Controller Definitions: BR0/1 and OR0/1 (FLASH) 4759 4760- SDRAM_BASE2_PRELIM, SDRAM_BASE3_PRELIM, SDRAM_MAX_SIZE, 4761 CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM, CONFIG_SYS_OR2_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR2_PRELIM, 4762 CONFIG_SYS_OR3_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR3_PRELIM: 4763 Memory Controller Definitions: BR2/3 and OR2/3 (SDRAM) 4764 4765- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_8K, 4766 CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_8K, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_8COL, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_9COL: 4767 Machine Mode Register and Memory Periodic Timer 4768 Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing) 4769 4770- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4771 enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4772 define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2] 4773 4774- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4775 enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4776 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1] 4777 4778- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4779 enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4780 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4] 4781 4782- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK: 4783 Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful, 4784 wrong setting might damage your board. Read 4785 doc/README.MBX before setting this variable! 4786 4787- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only) 4788 Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post 4789 (Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides 4790 #define'd default value in commproc.h resp. 4791 cpm_8260.h. 4792 4793- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, 4794 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL, 4795 CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK1_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_BUS, 4796 CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_MEM_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, 4797 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_BUS, CPU_PCI_MEMIO_START, 4798 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR1_MASK_ATTRIB, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_LOCAL, 4799 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_IO_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_SIZE, 4800 CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only) 4801 Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set. 4802 4803- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE: 4804 Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not 4805 required. 4806 4807- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY 4808 Only scan through and get the devices on the buses. 4809 Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or 4810 something has already done it, and we don't need to do it 4811 a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted 4812 by coreboot or similar. 4813 4814- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE: 4815 Enable support for indirect PCI bridges. 4816 4817- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO: 4818 Chip has SRIO or not 4819 4820- CONFIG_SRIO1: 4821 Board has SRIO 1 port available 4822 4823- CONFIG_SRIO2: 4824 Board has SRIO 2 port available 4825 4826- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER 4827 Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE 4828 4829- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT: 4830 Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4831 4832- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS: 4833 Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4834 4835- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE: 4836 Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4837 4838- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT 4839 Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using 4840 a 16 bit bus. 4841 Not all NAND drivers use this symbol. 4842 Example of drivers that use it: 4843 - drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c 4844 - drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c 4845 4846- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG 4847 Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined 4848 a default value will be used. 4849 4850- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM 4851 Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common 4852 with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs 4853 4854 SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS 4855 I2C address of the SPD EEPROM 4856 4857- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 4858 If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first 4859 one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve 4860 to something your driver can deal with. 4861 4862- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING 4863 Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with 4864 soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing 4865 parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into 4866 header files or board specific files. 4867 4868- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE 4869 Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr. 4870 4871- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_SYNC_REFRESH 4872 Enable sync of refresh for multiple controllers. 4873 4874- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0 4875 Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should 4876 be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3. 4877 4878- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12] 4879 Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor. 4880 4881- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY 4882 Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds 4883 to the given FEC; i. e. 4884 #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4 4885 means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1 4886 4887 When set to -1, means to probe for first available. 4888 4889- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR 4890 The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only). 4891 (so program the FEC to ignore it). 4892 4893- CONFIG_RMII 4894 Enable RMII mode for all FECs. 4895 Note that this is a global option, we can't 4896 have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode. 4897 4898- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY 4899 Add a verify option to the crc32 command. 4900 The syntax is: 4901 4902 => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32> 4903 4904 Where address/count indicate a memory area 4905 and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the 4906 area should have. 4907 4908- CONFIG_LOOPW 4909 Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if 4910 the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4911 4912- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC 4913 Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic 4914 "md/mw" commands. 4915 Examples: 4916 4917 => mdc.b 10 4 500 4918 This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms. 4919 4920 => mwc.l 100 12345678 10 4921 This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms. 4922 4923 This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated 4924 globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4925 4926- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT 4927 [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain 4928 low level initializations (like setting up the memory 4929 controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not 4930 relocate itself into RAM. 4931 4932 Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only 4933 exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some 4934 other boot loader or by a debugger which performs 4935 these initializations itself. 4936 4937- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD 4938 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4939 that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when 4940 compiling a NAND SPL. 4941 4942- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD 4943 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4944 that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot. 4945 It is loaded by the SPL. 4946 4947- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC 4948 Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section 4949 .resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the 4950 previous 4k of the .text section. 4951 4952- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM 4953 Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses 4954 effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard 4955 U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated 4956 to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since 4957 it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all 4958 addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses 4959 to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem(). 4960 4961- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY 4962 CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET 4963 If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will 4964 be used if available. These functions may be faster under some 4965 conditions but may increase the binary size. 4966 4967- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR 4968 If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not 4969 needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot. 4970 4971- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK 4972 Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz). 4973 4974 NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms. 4975 4976- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC: 4977 Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms 4978 4979- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE 4980 Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver 4981 driver that uses this: 4982 drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c 4983 4984Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: 4985----------------------------------- 4986 4987The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the 4988loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. 4989This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros 4990are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address 4991within that device. 4992 4993- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR 4994 The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located. The 4995 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro 4996 is also specified. 4997 4998- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR 4999 The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located. The 5000 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro 5001 is also specified. 5002 5003- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH 5004 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format 5005 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it 5006 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some 5007 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. 5008 5009- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR 5010 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as 5011 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the 5012 virtual address in NOR flash. 5013 5014- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND 5015 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. 5016 CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. 5017 5018- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC 5019 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC 5020 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 5021 5022- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH 5023 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI 5024 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 5025 5026- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE 5027 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master) 5028 memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which 5029 can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound 5030 window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in 5031 master's memory space. 5032 5033Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support: 5034--------------------------------------------------------- 5035The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of 5036"firmware". 5037This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros 5038are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address 5039within that device. 5040 5041- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET 5042 Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs. 5043 5044- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR 5045 The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The 5046 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro 5047 is also specified. 5048 5049- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH 5050 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format 5051 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it 5052 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some 5053 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. 5054 5055- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR 5056 Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as 5057 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the 5058 virtual address in NOR flash. 5059 5060Building the Software: 5061====================== 5062 5063Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments 5064and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support 5065all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all 5066(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we 5067recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK) 5068which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot. 5069 5070If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you 5071have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, 5072you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. 5073Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are 5074necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter: 5075 5076 $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- 5077 $ export CROSS_COMPILE 5078 5079Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in 5080 the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain 5081 (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW 5082 toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: 5083 5084 $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools 5085 5086 Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can 5087 be executed on computers running Windows. 5088 5089U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the 5090sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This 5091is done by typing: 5092 5093 make NAME_defconfig 5094 5095where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu- 5096rations; see boards.cfg for supported names. 5097 5098Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if 5099 additional information is available from the board vendor; for 5100 instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard) 5101 or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features" 5102 when choosing the configuration, i. e. 5103 5104 make TQM823L_defconfig 5105 - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support 5106 5107 make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig 5108 - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD 5109 5110 etc. 5111 5112 5113Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot 5114images ready for download to / installation on your system: 5115 5116- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image 5117- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format 5118- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format 5119 5120By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved 5121in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change 5122this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory: 5123 51241. Add O= to the make command line invocations: 5125 5126 make O=/tmp/build distclean 5127 make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig 5128 make O=/tmp/build all 5129 51302. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location: 5131 5132 export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build 5133 make distclean 5134 make NAME_defconfig 5135 make all 5136 5137Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment 5138variable. 5139 5140 5141Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so 5142for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of 5143native "make". 5144 5145 5146If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need 5147to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these 5148steps: 5149 51501. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel 5151 "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples. 5152 Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order. 51532. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any 5154 files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least 5155 the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds". 51563. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for 5157 your board 51583. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new 5159 directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. 51604. Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name. 51615. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file 5162 to be installed on your target system. 51636. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. 5164 [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] 5165 5166 5167Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: 5168============================================================== 5169 5170If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board 5171or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to 5172provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes 5173the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest 5174official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources. 5175 5176But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- 5177cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of 5178the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, 5179just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot 5180for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can 5181select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE' 5182environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools 5183you can type 5184 5185 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 5186 5187or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type 5188 5189 CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL 5190 5191When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build 5192U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by 5193setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target 5194built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and 5195<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default 5196location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment 5197variable. For example: 5198 5199 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 5200 export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log 5201 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 5202 5203With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build, 5204log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean 5205during the whole build process. 5206 5207 5208See also "U-Boot Porting Guide" below. 5209 5210 5211Monitor Commands - Overview: 5212============================ 5213 5214go - start application at address 'addr' 5215run - run commands in an environment variable 5216bootm - boot application image from memory 5217bootp - boot image via network using BootP/TFTP protocol 5218bootz - boot zImage from memory 5219tftpboot- boot image via network using TFTP protocol 5220 and env variables "ipaddr" and "serverip" 5221 (and eventually "gatewayip") 5222tftpput - upload a file via network using TFTP protocol 5223rarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol 5224diskboot- boot from IDE devicebootd - boot default, i.e., run 'bootcmd' 5225loads - load S-Record file over serial line 5226loadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode) 5227md - memory display 5228mm - memory modify (auto-incrementing) 5229nm - memory modify (constant address) 5230mw - memory write (fill) 5231cp - memory copy 5232cmp - memory compare 5233crc32 - checksum calculation 5234i2c - I2C sub-system 5235sspi - SPI utility commands 5236base - print or set address offset 5237printenv- print environment variables 5238setenv - set environment variables 5239saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage 5240protect - enable or disable FLASH write protection 5241erase - erase FLASH memory 5242flinfo - print FLASH memory information 5243nand - NAND memory operations (see doc/README.nand) 5244bdinfo - print Board Info structure 5245iminfo - print header information for application image 5246coninfo - print console devices and informations 5247ide - IDE sub-system 5248loop - infinite loop on address range 5249loopw - infinite write loop on address range 5250mtest - simple RAM test 5251icache - enable or disable instruction cache 5252dcache - enable or disable data cache 5253reset - Perform RESET of the CPU 5254echo - echo args to console 5255version - print monitor version 5256help - print online help 5257? - alias for 'help' 5258 5259 5260Monitor Commands - Detailed Description: 5261======================================== 5262 5263TODO. 5264 5265For now: just type "help <command>". 5266 5267 5268Environment Variables: 5269====================== 5270 5271U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which 5272can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. 5273 5274Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using 5275"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv" 5276without a value can be used to delete a variable from the 5277environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are 5278working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the 5279environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided. 5280 5281Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables. 5282 5283List of environment variables (most likely not complete): 5284 5285 baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE 5286 5287 bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 5288 5289 bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 5290 5291 bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image 5292 5293 bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP 5294 5295 bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 5296 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 5297 a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed 5298 for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size" 5299 environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is 5300 also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux 5301 kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and 5302 bootm_mapsize. 5303 5304 bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel. 5305 This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it 5306 defines the size of the memory region starting at base 5307 address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel 5308 during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used 5309 as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is 5310 used otherwise. 5311 5312 bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 5313 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 5314 a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region 5315 allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low" 5316 environment variable. 5317 5318 updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used 5319 by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to 5320 documentation in doc/README.update for more details. 5321 5322 autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'), 5323 "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the 5324 configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to 5325 load any image using TFTP 5326 5327 autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp", 5328 "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will 5329 be automatically started (by internally calling 5330 "bootm") 5331 5332 If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the 5333 "bootm" command will be copied to the load address 5334 (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started. 5335 This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary 5336 data. 5337 5338 fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the 5339 flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot. 5340 For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory 5341 at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel 5342 only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you 5343 may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the 5344 device tree blob be copied to the maximum address 5345 of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can 5346 access it during the boot procedure. 5347 5348 If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then 5349 the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this 5350 to work it must reside in writable memory, have 5351 sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to 5352 add the information it needs into it, and the memory 5353 must be accessible by the kernel. 5354 5355 fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened 5356 device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is 5357 defined. 5358 5359 i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 5360 if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast 5361 mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in 5362 initialization code. So, for changes to be effective 5363 it must be saved and board must be reset. 5364 5365 initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images: 5366 If this variable is not set, initrd images will be 5367 copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this 5368 is usually what you want since it allows for 5369 maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to 5370 make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the 5371 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment 5372 variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0". 5373 Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper 5374 address to use (U-Boot will still check that it 5375 does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data). 5376 5377 For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB 5378 RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux, 5379 you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of 5380 the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make 5381 sure that the initrd image is placed in the first 5382 12 MB as well - this can be done with 5383 5384 setenv initrd_high 00c00000 5385 5386 If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an 5387 indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal 5388 for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash 5389 memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the 5390 ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the 5391 boot time on your system, but requires that this 5392 feature is supported by your Linux kernel. 5393 5394 ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command 5395 5396 loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp", 5397 "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot" 5398 5399 loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 5400 5401 serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command 5402 5403 bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 5404 5405 bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 5406 5407 bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 5408 5409 ethprime - controls which interface is used first. 5410 5411 ethact - controls which interface is currently active. 5412 For example you can do the following 5413 5414 => setenv ethact FEC 5415 => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC 5416 => setenv ethact SCC 5417 => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC 5418 5419 ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all 5420 available network interfaces. 5421 It just stays at the currently selected interface. 5422 5423 netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will 5424 either succeed or fail without retrying. 5425 When set to "once" the network operation will 5426 fail when all the available network interfaces 5427 are tried once without success. 5428 Useful on scripts which control the retry operation 5429 themselves. 5430 5431 npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode 5432 5433 silent_linux - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by 5434 changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be 5435 made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If 5436 unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console 5437 is silent. 5438 5439 tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's 5440 UDP source port. 5441 5442 tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP 5443 destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69. 5444 5445 tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set, 5446 we use the TFTP server's default block size 5447 5448 tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli- 5449 seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines 5450 when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to 5451 be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds. 5452 Lowering this value may make downloads succeed 5453 faster in networks with high packet loss rates or 5454 with unreliable TFTP servers. 5455 5456 vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over 5457 Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q 5458 VLAN tagged frames. 5459 5460The following image location variables contain the location of images 5461used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is 5462not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment 5463variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP 5464server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be 5465loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR 5466flash or offset in NAND flash. 5467 5468*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some 5469boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some 5470boards use these variables for other purposes. 5471 5472Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location 5473----- --------- ----------- -------------- 5474u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr 5475Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr 5476device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr 5477ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr 5478 5479The following environment variables may be used and automatically 5480updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"), 5481depending the information provided by your boot server: 5482 5483 bootfile - see above 5484 dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server 5485 dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server 5486 gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use 5487 hostname - Target hostname 5488 ipaddr - see above 5489 netmask - Subnet Mask 5490 rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server 5491 serverip - see above 5492 5493 5494There are two special Environment Variables: 5495 5496 serial# - contains hardware identification information such 5497 as type string and/or serial number 5498 ethaddr - Ethernet address 5499 5500These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of 5501the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables 5502once they have been set once. 5503 5504 5505Further special Environment Variables: 5506 5507 ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed 5508 with the "version" command. This variable is 5509 readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE). 5510 5511 5512Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take 5513only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-). 5514 5515 5516Callback functions for environment variables: 5517--------------------------------------------- 5518 5519For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change 5520when their values are changed. This functionality allows functions to 5521be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or 5522deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side 5523effect to happen or for the change to be rejected. 5524 5525The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the 5526U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code. 5527 5528These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The 5529static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC 5530in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of 5531associations. The list must be in the following format: 5532 5533 entry = variable_name[:callback_name] 5534 list = entry[,list] 5535 5536If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted. 5537Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list. 5538 5539Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable 5540with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will 5541override any association in the static list. You can define 5542CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the 5543".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment. 5544 5545 5546Command Line Parsing: 5547===================== 5548 5549There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot: 5550the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell: 5551 5552Old, simple command line parser: 5553-------------------------------- 5554 5555- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands) 5556- several commands on one line, separated by ';' 5557- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax 5558- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\', 5559 for example: 5560 setenv bootcmd bootm \${address} 5561- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example: 5562 setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off' 5563 5564Hush shell: 5565----------- 5566 5567- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like 5568 if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done, 5569 until...do...done, ... 5570- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv 5571 commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax 5572 "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run" 5573 command 5574 5575General rules: 5576-------------- 5577 5578(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run" 5579 command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and 5580 one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be 5581 executed anyway. 5582 5583(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e. 5584 calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing 5585 command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining 5586 variables are not executed. 5587 5588Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces: 5589======================================= 5590 5591Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports 5592such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a 5593"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows: 5594 5595Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding 5596MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0), 5597"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ... 5598 5599If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance 5600in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon- 5601ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment 5602variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means: 5603 5604o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the 5605 environment, the SROM's address is used. 5606 5607o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the 5608 environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is 5609 used. 5610 5611o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and 5612 both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used. 5613 5614o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the 5615 addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a 5616 warning is printed. 5617 5618o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error 5619 is raised. 5620 5621If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses 5622will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This 5623may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable. 5624The naming convention is as follows: 5625"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc. 5626 5627Image Formats: 5628============== 5629 5630U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) 5631images in two formats: 5632 5633New uImage format (FIT) 5634----------------------- 5635 5636Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar 5637to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple 5638components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by 5639SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory. 5640 5641 5642Old uImage format 5643----------------- 5644 5645Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything, 5646preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for 5647details; basically, the header defines the following image properties: 5648 5649* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, 5650 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks, 5651 LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY; 5652 Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS, 5653 INTEGRITY). 5654* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, 5655 IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; 5656 Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC). 5657* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2) 5658* Load Address 5659* Entry Point 5660* Image Name 5661* Image Timestamp 5662 5663The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header 5664and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by 5665CRC32 checksums. 5666 5667 5668Linux Support: 5669============== 5670 5671Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application 5672easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of 5673U-Boot. 5674 5675U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some 5676special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any 5677"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image; 5678instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation 5679serves several purposes: 5680 5681- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone 5682 applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the 5683 Flash memory footprint) 5684 5685- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because 5686 lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot 5687 5688- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd" 5689 images; of course this also means that different kernel images can 5690 be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't 5691 have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just 5692 change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the 5693 software is easier now. 5694 5695 5696Linux HOWTO: 5697============ 5698 5699Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems: 5700--------------------------------------- 5701 5702U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to 5703configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware 5704(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to 5705Linux :-). 5706 5707But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot). 5708 5709Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance 5710include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board 5711Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h, 5712and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value 5713as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR. 5714 5715Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers. 5716If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there 5717is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See 5718doc/driver-model. 5719 5720 5721Configuring the Linux kernel: 5722----------------------------- 5723 5724No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root 5725device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system. 5726 5727 5728Building a Linux Image: 5729----------------------- 5730 5731With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are 5732not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target 5733"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by 5734U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target, 5735which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a 5736100% compatible format. 5737 5738Example: 5739 5740 make TQM850L_defconfig 5741 make oldconfig 5742 make dep 5743 make uImage 5744 5745The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to 5746encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information, 5747CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing: 5748 5749* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format): 5750 5751* convert the kernel into a raw binary image: 5752 5753 ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \ 5754 -R .note -R .comment \ 5755 -S vmlinux linux.bin 5756 5757* compress the binary image: 5758 5759 gzip -9 linux.bin 5760 5761* package compressed binary image for U-Boot: 5762 5763 mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \ 5764 -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \ 5765 -d linux.bin.gz uImage 5766 5767 5768The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use 5769with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or 5770combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64 5771byte header containing information about target architecture, 5772operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time 5773stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc. 5774 5775"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and 5776print the header information, or to build new images. 5777 5778In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information 5779contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes 5780checksum verification: 5781 5782 tools/mkimage -l image 5783 -l ==> list image header information 5784 5785The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image 5786from a "data file" which is used as image payload: 5787 5788 tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \ 5789 -n name -d data_file image 5790 -A ==> set architecture to 'arch' 5791 -O ==> set operating system to 'os' 5792 -T ==> set image type to 'type' 5793 -C ==> set compression type 'comp' 5794 -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex) 5795 -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex) 5796 -n ==> set image name to 'name' 5797 -d ==> use image data from 'datafile' 5798 5799Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load 5800address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the 5801kernel version: 5802 5803- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C, 5804- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000. 5805 5806So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read: 5807 5808 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5809 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \ 5810 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \ 5811 > examples/uImage.TQM850L 5812 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5813 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5814 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5815 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5816 Load Address: 0x00000000 5817 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5818 5819To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption): 5820 5821 -> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L 5822 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5823 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5824 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5825 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5826 Load Address: 0x00000000 5827 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5828 5829NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade 5830speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this 5831needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not 5832need to be uncompressed: 5833 5834 -> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz 5835 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5836 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \ 5837 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \ 5838 > examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed 5839 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5840 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5841 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) 5842 Data Size: 792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB 5843 Load Address: 0x00000000 5844 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5845 5846 5847Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file 5848when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk: 5849 5850 -> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \ 5851 > -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \ 5852 > -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd 5853 Image Name: Simple Ramdisk Image 5854 Created: Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000 5855 Image Type: PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed) 5856 Data Size: 566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB 5857 Load Address: 0x00000000 5858 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5859 5860The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i" 5861option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d" 5862option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file" 5863from the image: 5864 5865 tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file 5866 -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file' 5867 -T ==> set image type to 'type' 5868 -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image' 5869 5870 5871Installing a Linux Image: 5872------------------------- 5873 5874To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface, 5875you must convert the image to S-Record format: 5876 5877 objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec 5878 5879The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot 5880image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to 5881address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to 5882specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads' 5883command. 5884 5885Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the 5886TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank): 5887 5888 => erase 40100000 401FFFFF 5889 5890 .......... done 5891 Erased 8 sectors 5892 5893 => loads 40100000 5894 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5895 ~>examples/image.srec 5896 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ... 5897 ... 5898 15989 15990 15991 15992 5899 [file transfer complete] 5900 [connected] 5901 ## Start Addr = 0x00000000 5902 5903 5904You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command; 5905this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data 5906corruption happened: 5907 5908 => imi 40100000 5909 5910 ## Checking Image at 40100000 ... 5911 Image Name: 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L 5912 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5913 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327 kB = 0 MB 5914 Load Address: 00000000 5915 Entry Point: 0000000c 5916 Verifying Checksum ...

Usually these programs 6062 will install their own set of exception handlers, device 6063 drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot 6064 expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU. 6065 "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their 6066 parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is 6067 being started. 6068 "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS 6069 (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like 6070 RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want 6071 to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot 6072 server provides just a single image file, but you want to get 6073 for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image. 6074 6075 "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each 6076 image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network 6077 byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0". 6078 Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by 6079 one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to 6080 a multiple of 4 bytes). 6081 6082 "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like 6083 U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to 6084 flash memory. 6085 6086 "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by 6087 U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially 6088 useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush) 6089 as command interpreter. 6090 6091Booting the Linux zImage: 6092------------------------- 6093 6094On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done 6095using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same 6096as the syntax of "bootm" command. 6097 6098Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply 6099kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the 6100address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following 6101format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>". 6102 6103 6104Standalone HOWTO: 6105================= 6106 6107One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and 6108run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of 6109U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services. 6110 6111Two simple examples are included with the sources: 6112 6113"Hello World" Demo: 6114------------------- 6115 6116'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo 6117application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot. 6118It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it 6119like that: 6120 6121 => loads 6122 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 6123 ~>examples/hello_world.srec 6124 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 6125 [file transfer complete] 6126 [connected] 6127 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 6128 6129 => go 40004 Hello World!

The application can be 6150controlled by the following keys: 6151 6152 ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers 6153 b - enable interrupts and start timer 6154 e - stop timer and disable interrupts 6155 q - quit application 6156 6157 => loads 6158 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 6159 ~>examples/timer.srec 6160 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 6161 [file transfer complete] 6162 [connected] 6163 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 6164 6165 => go 40004 6166 ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ... 6167 TIMERS=0xfff00980 6168 Using timer 1 6169 tgcr @ 0xfff00980, tmr @ 0xfff00990, trr @ 0xfff00994, tcr @ 0xfff00998, tcn @ 0xfff0099c, ter @ 0xfff009b0 6170 6171Hit 'b': 6172 [q, b, e, ?] Set interval 1000000 us 6173 Enabling timer 6174Hit '?': 6175 [q, b, e, ?] ........ 6176 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0xef6, ter=0x0 6177Hit '?': 6178 [q, b, e, ?] . 6179 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x2ad4, ter=0x0 6180Hit '?': 6181 [q, b, e, ?] . 6182 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x1efc, ter=0x0 6183Hit '?': 6184 [q, b, e, ?] . 6185 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x169d, ter=0x0 6186Hit 'e': 6187 [q, b, e, ?] ...Stopping timer 6188Hit 'q': 6189 [q, b, e, ?] ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0 6190 6191 6192Minicom warning: 6193================ 6194 6195Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the 6196"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd) 6197consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under 6198Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and 6199especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and 6200use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See 6201http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3. 6202for help with kermit. 6203 6204 6205Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this 6206configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section: 6207 6208 Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red.

This file has to be installed and patched manually: 6225 6226 # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include 6227 # mkdir powerpc 6228 # ln -s powerpc machine 6229 # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h 6230 # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST 6231 6232Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native 6233and U-Boot include files. 6234 6235Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a 6236stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel 6237proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source 6238tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the 6239meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz 6240 6241 6242Implementation Internals: 6243========================= 6244 6245The following is not intended to be a complete description of every 6246implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the 6247inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom 6248hardware. 6249 6250 6251Initial Stack, Global Data: 6252--------------------------- 6253 6254The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot 6255starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to 6256system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet). 6257This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS 6258is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working 6259at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation 6260options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU 6261models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and 6262MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be 6263locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc. 6264 6265 Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the 6266 U-Boot mailing list: 6267 6268 Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)? 6269 From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com> 6270 Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET) 6271 ... 6272 6273 Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it 6274 is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not 6275 require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness 6276 is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of 6277 necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's 6278 beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you 6279 can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and 6280 operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals. 6281 6282 OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It 6283 is another option for the system designer to use as an 6284 initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either 6285 option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your 6286 board designers haven't used it for something that would 6287 cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not 6288 used. 6289 6290 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere 6291 with your processor/board/system design. The default value 6292 you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in 6293 walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger 6294 than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set 6295 it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources 6296 that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in 6297 start.S has been around a while and should work as is when 6298 you get the config right. 6299 6300 -Chris Hallinan 6301 DS4.COM, Inc. 6302 6303It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C 6304code for the initialization procedures: 6305 6306* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt 6307 to write it. 6308 6309* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized 6310 as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali- 6311 zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM). 6312 6313* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like 6314 that. 6315 6316Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use 6317normal global data to share information between the code. But it 6318turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly 6319simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all 6320functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_ 6321functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of 6322the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we 6323place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we 6324reserve for this purpose. 6325 6326When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the 6327relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by 6328GCC's implementation. 6329 6330For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use: 6331 R1: stack pointer 6332 R2: reserved for system use 6333 R3-R4: parameter passing and return values 6334 R5-R10: parameter passing 6335 R13: small data area pointer 6336 R30: GOT pointer 6337 R31: frame pointer 6338 6339 (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12 6340 is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when 6341 going back and forth between asm and C) 6342 6343 ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data 6344 6345 Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the 6346 address of the global data structure is known at compile time), 6347 but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat 6348 smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on 6349 average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image, 6350 624 text + 127 data). 6351 6352On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here: 6353 http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface 6354 6355 ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data 6356 6357On ARM, the following registers are used: 6358 6359 R0: function argument word/integer result 6360 R1-R3: function argument word 6361 R9: platform specific 6362 R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled) 6363 R11: argument (frame) pointer 6364 R12: temporary workspace 6365 R13: stack pointer 6366 R14: link register 6367 R15: program counter 6368 6369 ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data 6370 6371 Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported. 6372 6373On Nios II, the ABI is documented here: 6374 http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf 6375 6376 ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data 6377 6378 Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp 6379 to access small data sections, so gp is free. 6380 6381On NDS32, the following registers are used: 6382 6383 R0-R1: argument/return 6384 R2-R5: argument 6385 R15: temporary register for assembler 6386 R16: trampoline register 6387 R28: frame pointer (FP) 6388 R29: global pointer (GP) 6389 R30: link register (LP) 6390 R31: stack pointer (SP) 6391 PC: program counter (PC) 6392 6393 ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data 6394 6395NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope, 6396or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much. 6397 6398Memory Management: 6399------------------ 6400 6401U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the 6402MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection. 6403 6404The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory 6405controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each 6406memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several 6407physical memory banks. 6408 6409U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on 6410TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After 6411booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself 6412to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some 6413memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN 6414configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board 6415Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward). 6416 6417Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB 6418of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF). 6419 6420So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like 6421this: 6422 6423 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code 6424 : 6425 0x0000 1FFF 6426 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use 6427 : 6428 : 6429 6430 : 6431 : 6432 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward) 6433 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data 6434 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena 6435 : 6436 0x00FD FFFF 6437 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code 6438 ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer 6439 ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset) 6440 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM] 6441 6442 6443System Initialization: 6444---------------------- 6445 6446In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point 6447(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset 6448configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory. 6449To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address. 6450To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!) 6451initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs 6452which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked 6453part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, 6454the caches and the SIU. 6455 6456Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a 6457preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries 6458(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash 6459on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is 6460programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a 6461simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM 6462banks. 6463 6464When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of 6465different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first 6466bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address 64670x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create 6468contiguous memory starting from 0. 6469 6470Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area 6471and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board 6472Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM 6473pages, and the final stack is set up. 6474 6475Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment; 6476until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are 6477running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a 6478new address in RAM. 6479 6480 6481U-Boot Porting Guide: 6482---------------------- 6483 6484[Based on messages by Jerry Van Baren in the U-Boot-Users mailing 6485list, October 2002] 6486 6487 6488int main(int argc, char *argv[]) 6489{ 6490 sighandler_t no_more_time; 6491 6492 signal(SIGALRM, no_more_time); 6493 alarm(PROJECT_DEADLINE - toSec (3 * WEEK)); 6494 6495 if (available_money > available_manpower) { 6496 Pay consultant to port U-Boot; 6497 return 0; 6498 } 6499 6500 Download latest U-Boot source; 6501 6502 Subscribe to u-boot mailing list; 6503 6504 if (clueless) 6505 email("Hi, I am new to U-Boot, how do I get started?"); 6506 6507 while (learning) { 6508 Read the README file in the top level directory; 6509 Read http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/Manual; 6510 Read applicable doc/*.README; 6511 Read the source, Luke; 6512 /* find . -name "*.[chS]" | xargs grep -i <keyword> */ 6513 } 6514 6515 if (available_money > toLocalCurrency ($2500)) 6516 Buy a BDI3000; 6517 else 6518 Add a lot of aggravation and time; 6519 6520 if (a similar board exists) { /* hopefully... */ 6521 cp -a board/<similar> board/<myboard> 6522 cp include/configs/<similar>.h include/configs/<myboard>.h 6523 } else { 6524 Create your own board support subdirectory; 6525 Create your own board include/configs/<myboard>.h file; 6526 } 6527 Edit new board/<myboard> files 6528 Edit new include/configs/<myboard>.h 6529 6530 while (!accepted) { 6531 while (!running) { 6532 do { 6533 Add / modify source code; 6534 } until (compiles); 6535 Debug; 6536 if (clueless) 6537 email("Hi, I am having problems..."); 6538 } 6539 Send patch file to the U-Boot email list; 6540 if (reasonable critiques) 6541 Incorporate improvements from email list code review; 6542 else 6543 Defend code as written; 6544 } 6545 6546 return 0; 6547} 6548 6549void no_more_time (int sig) 6550{ 6551 hire_a_guru(); 6552} 6553 6554 6555Coding Standards: 6556----------------- 6557 6558All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel 6559coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script 6560"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory. 6561 6562Source files originating from a different project (for example the 6563MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not 6564reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those 6565sources. 6566 6567Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in 6568Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//) 6569in your code. 6570 6571Please also stick to the following formatting rules: 6572- remove any trailing white space 6573- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces 6574- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds 6575- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files 6576- do not add trailing empty lines to source files 6577 6578Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned 6579with a request to reformat the changes. 6580 6581 6582Submitting Patches: 6583------------------- 6584 6585Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to 6586establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules 6587may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff. 6588 6589Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details. 6590 6591Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>; 6592see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot 6593 6594When you send a patch, please include the following information with 6595it: 6596 6597* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes 6598 this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the 6599 patch actually fixes something. 6600 6601* For new features: a description of the feature and your 6602 implementation. 6603 6604* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch) 6605 6606* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file 6607 6608* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a 6609 maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too. 6610 6611* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to 6612 document these in the README file. 6613 6614* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly* 6615 recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the 6616 "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to 6617 the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems 6618 with some other mail clients. 6619 6620 If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of 6621 diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of 6622 GNU diff. 6623 6624 The current directory when running this command shall be the parent 6625 directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that 6626 your patch includes sufficient directory information for the 6627 affected files). 6628 6629 We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged, 6630 and compressed attachments must not be used. 6631 6632* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several 6633 files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file. 6634 6635* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be 6636 submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset. 6637 6638 6639Notes: 6640 6641* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched 6642 source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported 6643 for any of the boards. 6644 6645* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch 6646 containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be 6647 returned with a request to re-formatting / split it. 6648 6649* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not 6650 add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful! 6651 When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only 6652 (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature 6653 disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your 6654 modification. 6655 6656* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the 6657 u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are 6658 reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches 6659 bigger than the size limit should be avoided. 6660
