8Summary:
9========
10
11This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
12Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
13processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
14initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
15code.
16
17The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
18the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
19header files in common, and special provision has been made to
20support booting of Linux images.
21
22Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
23configurable and extendable. 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:

44	make CHANGELOG

223Software Configuration:
224=======================
225
226Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
227rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
228
229There are two classes of configuration variables:
230
231* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
232  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
233  "CONFIG_".
234
235* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
236  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
237  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
238  "CONFIG_SYS_".
239
240Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
241identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
242do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
243links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
244as an example here.
245
246
247Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
248---------------------------------------------------
249
250For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
251configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
252
253Example: For a TQM823L module type:
254
255	cd u-boot
256	make TQM823L_config
257
258For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
259e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
260directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
261
262
263Configuration Options:
264----------------------
265
266Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
267such information is kept in a configuration file
268"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
269
270Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
271"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
272
273
274Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
275kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
276build a config tool - later.
277
278
279The following options need to be configured:
280
281- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
282
283- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
284
285- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
286		Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
287
288- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
289		Define exactly one of
290		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
291--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
292		CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
293		CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
294
295- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
296		Define exactly one of
297		CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
298
299- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
300		Define one or more of
301		CONFIG_CMA302
302
303- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
304		Define one or more of
305		CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT	- update a character position on
306					  the LCD display every second with
307					  a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
308
309- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined)
310		CONFIG_ADSTYPE
311		Possible values are:
312			CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS	- original MPC8260ADS
313			CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS	- MPC8266ADS
314			CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS	- PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR
315			CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS	- MPC8272ADS
316
317- Marvell Family Member
318		CONFIG_SYS_MVFS		- define it if you want to enable
319					  multiple fs option at one time
320					  for marvell soc family
321
322- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
323		Define exactly one of
324		CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
325
326- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
327		CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ	- deprecated: CPU clock if
328					  get_gclk_freq() cannot work
329					  e.g. if there is no 32KHz
330					  reference PIT/RTC clock
331		CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK	- PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
332					  or XTAL/EXTAL)
333
334- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
335		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
336		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
337		CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
338			See doc/README.MPC866
339
340		CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
341
342		Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
343		of relying on the correctness of the configured
344		values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
345		the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
346		that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
347		RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
348
349		CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
350
351		Define this option if you want to enable the
352		ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
353
354- 85xx CPU Options:
355		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
356
357		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
358		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
359		compliance, among other possible reasons.
360
361		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
362
363		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
364		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
365		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
366
367		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
368
369		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
370		tree nodes for the given platform.
371
372		CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
373
374		Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
375		around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
376		support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
377		breakpoints and single stepping do not work.  The value of this
378		symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
379		purpose.
380
381		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
382
383		Enables a workaround for erratum A004510.  If set,
384		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
385		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
386
387		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
388		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
389
390		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
391		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
392
393		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
394		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
395		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
396		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
397
398		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
399		this erratum.
400
401		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
402		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
403		requred during NOR boot.
404
405		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
406
407		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
408		according to the A004510 workaround.
409
410		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
411		This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
412		connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
413
414		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
415		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
416		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
417
418		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
419		This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
420		connected to the DSP core.
421
422		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
423		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
424
425		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
426		Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
427		In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
428		clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
429
430- Generic CPU options:
431		CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
432
433		Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
434		values is arch specific.

526		Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
527		See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
528
529		CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
530
531		Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
532		XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
533		be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
534
535- ARM options:
536		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
537
538		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
539		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
540
541		CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
542
543		Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
544		set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
545		better code density. For ARM architectures that support
546		Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
547		GCC.
548
549		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
550		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
551		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
552		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
553
554		If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
555		during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
556		workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
557		exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
558		set these options unless they apply!
559
560- CPU timer options:
561		CONFIG_SYS_HZ
562
563		The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer().
564		get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG
565		option must be set to 1000.
566
567- Linux Kernel Interface:
568		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
569
570		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
571		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
572		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
573		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
574		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
575		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
576		Linux kernel.
577		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
578		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
579		default environment.
580
581		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
582
583		When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions
584		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
585		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
586
587		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
588
589		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
590		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
591		concepts).
592
593		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
594		 * New libfdt-based support
595		 * Adds the "fdt" command
596		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
597
598		OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
599			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
600		OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
601			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
602		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
603		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
604
605		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
606		addresses
607
608		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
609
610		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
611		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
612
613		CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
614
615		This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
616		param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
617
618		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
619
620		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
621		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
622		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
623		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
624		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
625		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
626
627		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
628
629		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
630		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
631		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
632		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
633		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
634		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
635		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
636
637- vxWorks boot parameters:
638
639		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
640		environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
641		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
642
643		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
644		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
645		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
646		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
647
648		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
649
650		Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
651
652		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
653		the defaults discussed just above.
654
655- Cache Configuration:
656		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
657		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
658		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
659
660- Cache Configuration for ARM:
661		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
662				      controller
663		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
664					controller register space
665
666- Serial Ports:
667		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
668
669		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
670
671		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
672
673		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
674
675		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
676
677		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
678		the clock speed of the UARTs.
679
680		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
681
682		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
683		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
684		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
685
686		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
687
688		Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
689		have separate receive and transmit line control registers.  Set
690		this variable to initialize the extra register.
691
692		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
693
694		On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
695		boot loader that has already initialized the UART.  Define this
696		variable to flush the UART at init time.
697
698
699- Console Interface:
700		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
701		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
702		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
703		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
704
705		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
706		port routines must be defined elsewhere
707		(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
708
709		CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
710		Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
711		defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
712			VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN	graphic memory organisation
713						(default big endian)
714			VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL	graphic chip supports
715						rectangle fill
716						(cf. smiLynxEM)
717			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
718						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
719			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
720						(cols=pitch)
721			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS	visible pixel rows
722			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE	bytes per pixel
723			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
724						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
725			VIDEO_FB_ADRS		framebuffer address
726			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
727						(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
728			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
729						(i.e. i8042_tstc)
730			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
731						(i.e. i8042_getc)
732			CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR	cursor drawing on/off
733						(requires blink timer
734						cf. i8042.c)
735			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
736			CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME	display time/date info in
737						upper right corner
738						(requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
739			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO	display Linux logo in
740						upper left corner
741			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO	use bmp_logo.h instead of
742						linux_logo.h for logo.
743						Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
744			CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
745						additional board info beside
746						the logo
747
748		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
749		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
750		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
751
752		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
753		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
754		environment 'console=serial'.
755
756		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
757		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
758		the "silent" environment variable. See
759		doc/README.silent for more information.
760
761		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
762			is 0x00.
763		CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
764			is 0xa0.
765
766- Console Baudrate:
767		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
768		Select one of the baudrates listed in
769		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
770		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
771
772- Console Rx buffer length
773		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
774		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
775		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
776		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
777		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
778		the SMC.
779
780- Pre-Console Buffer:
781		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
782		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
783		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
784		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
785		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
786		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
787		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
788		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
789		earlier bytes are discarded.
790
791		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
792		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
793
794- Safe printf() functions
795		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
796		the printf() functions. These are defined in
797		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
798		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
799		If this option is not given then these functions will
800		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
801		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
802
803- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
804		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
805		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
806		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
807		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
808
809		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
810		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
811		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
812		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
813		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
814		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
815		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
816		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
817		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
818		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
819		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
820		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
821
822- Autoboot Command:
823		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
824		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
825		define a command string that is automatically executed
826		when no character is read on the console interface
827		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
828
829		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
830		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
831		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
832		environment value "bootargs".
833
834		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
835		The value of these goes into the environment as
836		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
837		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
838		RAM and NFS.
839
840- Bootcount:
841		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
842		Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
843		cycle, see:
844		http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
845
846		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
847		If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
848		"bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
849		saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
850		"upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
851		0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
852		1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
853		So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
854		and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
855
856- Pre-Boot Commands:
857		CONFIG_PREBOOT
858
859		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
860		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
861		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
862		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
863		entering interactive mode.
864
865		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
866		automatically generated or modified. For an example
867		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
868		modified when the user holds down a certain
869		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
870		booting the systems
871
872- Serial Download Echo Mode:
873		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
874		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
875		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
876		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
877		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
878		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
879		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
880
881- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
882		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
883		Select one of the baudrates listed in
884		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
885
886- Monitor Functions:
887		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
888		from the build by using the #include files
889		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
890		commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
891		and augmenting with additional #define's
892		for wanted commands.
893
894		The default command configuration includes all commands
895		except those marked below with a "*".

1000
1001		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
1002		support you can write:
1003
1004		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
1005		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1006
1007	Other Commands:
1008		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1009
1010	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1011		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1012		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1013		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1014		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1015		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1016		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1017		initial stack and some data.
1018
1019
1020		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1021
1022- Regular expression support:
1023		CONFIG_REGEX
1024		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1025		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1026		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1027		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1028
1029- Device tree:
1030		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1031		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1032		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1033		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1034		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1035		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1036
1037		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1038		be done using one of the two options below:
1039
1040		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1041		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1042		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1043		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1044		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1045		the global data structure as gd->blob.
1046
1047		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1048		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1049		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1050		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1051
1052			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1053
1054		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1055		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1056		still use the individual files if you need something more
1057		exotic.
1058
1059- Watchdog:
1060		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1061		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1062		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1063		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1064		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1065		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
1066		available, then no further board specific code should
1067		be needed to use it.
1068
1069		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1070		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1071		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1072		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1073
1074- U-Boot Version:
1075		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1076		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1077		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1078		version as printed by the "version" command.
1079		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1080		next reset.
1081
1082- Real-Time Clock:
1083
1084		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1085		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1086		following options:
1087
1088		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1089		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC

1093		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1094		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1095		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
1096		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1097		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1098		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1099		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
1100					  RV3029 RTC.
1101
1102		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1103		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1104
1105- GPIO Support:
1106		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1107
1108		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1109		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1110		pins supported by a particular chip.
1111
1112		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1113		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1114
1115- Timestamp Support:
1116
1117		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1118		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
1119		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1120		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .

1130				       disk/part_efi.c
1131		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
1132
1133		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1134		CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1135		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1136
1137- IDE Reset method:
1138		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1139		board configurations files but used nowhere!
1140
1141		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1142		be performed by calling the function
1143			ide_set_reset(int reset)
1144		which has to be defined in a board specific file
1145
1146- ATAPI Support:
1147		CONFIG_ATAPI
1148
1149		Set this to enable ATAPI support.

1154		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1155		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1156		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1157		support disks up to 2.1TB.
1158
1159		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1160			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1161			Default is 32bit.
1162

1168		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1169		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1170		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1171		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1172		devices.
1173		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1174
1175		The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
1176		SCSI devices found during the last scan.
1177
1178- NETWORK Support (PCI):
1179		CONFIG_E1000

1264			Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY.
1265			If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur
1266			wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or
1267			useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit
1268			control registers. This behavior won't affect the
1269			correctnessof 10/100 link speed update.

1324			to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at
1325			0xfed40000.
1326
1327		CONFIG_CMD_TPM
1328		Add tpm monitor functions.
1329		Requires CONFIG_TPM. If CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS is set, also
1330		provides monitor access to authorized functions.

1369		interval for usb hub power-on delay.(minimum 100msec)
1370
1371- USB Device:
1372		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1373		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1374		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1375		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1376		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1377		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1378		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1379		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1380		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1381		a Linux host by
1382		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1383		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1384		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1385		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1386
1387			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1388			Define this to build a UDC device
1389
1390			CONFIG_USB_TTY
1391			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1392			talk to the UDC device
1393
1394			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1395			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1396			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1397			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1398			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1399			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1400			speed.
1401
1402			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1403			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1404			be set to usbtty.
1405
1406			mpc8xx:
1407				CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH
1408				Derive USB clock from external clock "blah"
1409				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02

1412				Derive USB clock from brgclk
1413				- CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
1414
1415		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1416		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1417		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1418		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1419		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1420		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1421
1422			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1423			Define this string as the name of your company for
1424			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1425
1426			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1427			Define this string as the name of your product
1428			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1429
1430			CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1431			Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1432			Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1433			to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1434			- CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1435
1436			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1437			Define this as the unique Product ID
1438			for your device
1439			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1440
1441		Some USB device drivers may need to check USB cable attachment.
1442		In this case you can enable following config in BoardName.h:
1443			CONFIG_USB_CABLE_CHECK
1444			This enables function definition:
1445			- usb_cable_connected() in include/usb.h
1446			Implementation of this function is board-specific.
1447
1448- ULPI Layer Support:
1449		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1450		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1451		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1452		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1453		viewport is supported.
1454		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1455		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1456		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1457		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1458		the appropriate value in Hz.
1459
1460- MMC Support:
1461		The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1462		enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1463		accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1464		to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1465		enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1466		the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1467
1468		CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1469		Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1470
1471			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
1472			Define the base address of MMCIF registers
1473
1474			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK
1475			Define the clock frequency for MMCIF

1478		CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION
1479		This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1480
1481		CONFIG_CMD_DFU
1482		This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have
1483		U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB.  This command
1484		requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1485		set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1486
1487		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1488		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1489
1490		CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1491		This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1492
1493		CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1494		This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1495		Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1496		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1497		one that would help mostly the developer.
1498
1499		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1500		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1501		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1502		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1503		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1504
1505		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1506		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1507		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1508		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1509		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1510		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1511
1512- Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1513		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
1514		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
1515		Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1516
1517		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1518		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS

1521		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
1522		Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1523		function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1524
1525		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1526		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1527		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1528		have not defined a custom partition
1529
1530- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1531		CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
1532
1533		Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1534		file in FAT formatted partition.
1535
1536		This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1537		user to write files to FAT.
1538
1539CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1540		CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
1541
1542		Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1543		filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
1544		and cbfsload.
1545
1546- Keyboard Support:
1547		CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
1548
1549		Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
1550		support
1551
1552		CONFIG_I8042_KBD
1553		Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
1554		GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
1555		Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
1556		for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
1557
1558		CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB
1559		Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface.
1560		This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller
1561		which provides key scans on request.
1562
1563- Video support:
1564		CONFIG_VIDEO
1565
1566		Define this to enable video support (for output to
1567		video).
1568
1569		CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
1570
1571		Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
1572
1573		CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1574		Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1575		video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1576		(1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1577		assumed.
1578
1579		For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1580		selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1581		are possible:
1582		- "videomode=num"   'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
1583		Following standard modes are supported	(* is default):
1584
1585		      Colors	640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
1586		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1587		      8 bits |	0x301*	0x303	 0x305	  0x161	    0x307
1588		     15 bits |	0x310	0x313	 0x316	  0x162	    0x319
1589		     16 bits |	0x311	0x314	 0x317	  0x163	    0x31A
1590		     24 bits |	0x312	0x315	 0x318	    ?	    0x31B
1591		-------------+---------------------------------------------
1592		(i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1593
1594		- "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1595		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1596
1597
1598		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1599		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1600		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1601		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1602
1603		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1604		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1605		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1606		support, and should also define these other macros:
1607
1608			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1609			CONFIG_VIDEO
1610			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1611			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1612			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1613			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1614			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1615			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1616
1617		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1618		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1619		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1620		description of this variable.
1621
1622		CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
1623
1624		Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1625		are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1626		driver.
1627
1628
1629- Keyboard Support:
1630		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1631
1632		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1633		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1634		defined in your board-specific files.
1635		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1636
1637- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1638
1639		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1640		display); also select one of the supported displays
1641		by defining one of these:
1642
1643		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1644
1645			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1646
1647		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1648
1649			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1650
1651		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1652
1653			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1654			Active, color, single scan.
1655
1656		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1657
1658			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1659			Active, color, single scan.
1660
1661		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1662
1663			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1664			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1665
1666		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1667
1668			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1669			Active, color, single scan.
1670
1671		CONFIG_HLD1045
1672
1673			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1674			Active, color, single scan.
1675
1676		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1677
1678			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1679			or
1680			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1681			or
1682			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1683
1684			320x240. Black & white.
1685
1686		Normally display is black on white background; define
1687		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1688
1689		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1690
1691		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1692		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1693		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1694		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1695		a per-section basis.
1696
1697		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1698
1699		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1700		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1701		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1702		is slow.
1703
1704		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1705
1706		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1707
1708		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1709
1710		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1711		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1712
1713- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1714
1715		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1716		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1717		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1718		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1719		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1720		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1721		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1722		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1723
1724		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1725
1726		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1727		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1728		(see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses).
1729		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1730		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1731		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1732		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1733		there is no need to set this option.
1734
1735		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1736
1737		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1738		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1739		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1740		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1741		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1742		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1743
1744		Example:
1745		setenv splashpos m,m
1746			=> image at center of screen
1747
1748		setenv splashpos 30,20
1749			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1750
1751		setenv splashpos -10,m
1752			=> vertically centered image
1753			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1754
1755- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1756
1757		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1758		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1759		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1760
1761- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1762
1763		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1764		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1765		bmp command.
1766
1767- Do compresssing for memory range:
1768		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1769
1770		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1771		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1772
1773- Compression support:
1774		CONFIG_GZIP
1775
1776		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1777
1778		CONFIG_BZIP2
1779
1780		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1781		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1782		compressed images are supported.
1783
1784		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1785		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1786		be at least 4MB.
1787
1788		CONFIG_LZMA
1789
1790		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1791		images is included.
1792
1793		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1794		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1795		formula:
1796
1797			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1798
1799		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1800		and Literal pos bits.
1801
1802		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1803		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1804		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1805		a very small buffer.
1806
1807		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1808		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1809		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1810
1811		CONFIG_LZO
1812
1813		If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
1814		is included.
1815
1816- MII/PHY support:
1817		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1818
1819		The address of PHY on MII bus.
1820
1821		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1822
1823		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1824
1825		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
1826
1827		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1828		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1829
1830		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1831
1832		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1833		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1834		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1835		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1836
1837		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1838
1839		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1840		command issued before MII status register can be read
1841
1842- Ethernet address:
1843		CONFIG_ETHADDR
1844		CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
1845		CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
1846		CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
1847		CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
1848		CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
1849
1850		Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1851		for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
1852		is not determined automatically.
1853
1854- IP address:
1855		CONFIG_IPADDR
1856
1857		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1858		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1859		determined through e.g. bootp.
1860		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
1861
1862- Server IP address:
1863		CONFIG_SERVERIP
1864
1865		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1866		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1867		(Environment variable "serverip")
1868
1869		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1870
1871		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1872		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1873
1874- Gateway IP address:
1875		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
1876
1877		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1878		default router where packets to other networks are
1879		sent to.
1880		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
1881
1882- Subnet mask:
1883		CONFIG_NETMASK
1884
1885		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
1886		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
1887		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
1888		forwarded through a router.
1889		(Environment variable "netmask")
1890
1891- Multicast TFTP Mode:
1892		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
1893
1894		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1895		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
1896		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
1897		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1898		multicast group.
1899
1900- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1901		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1902
1903		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1904		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1905		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1906		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1907		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1908		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1909		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1910		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
1911		following delays are inserted then:
1912
1913		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
1914		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
1915		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
1916		4th and following
1917		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
1918
1919- DHCP Advanced Options:
1920		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1921		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1922
1923		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
1924		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
1925		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
1926		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
1927		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
1928		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
1929		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1930		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
1931		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
1932		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
1933		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
1934		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
1935		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1936
1937		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1938		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1939
1940		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1941		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1942		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
1943		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1944		is not available.
1945
1946		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1947		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1948		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1949		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1950		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
1951		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
1952		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1953		is defined.
1954
1955		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1956		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1957		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
1958		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
1959		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
1960		option 12 to the DHCP server.
1961
1962		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1963
1964		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1965		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1966		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1967		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1968		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1969		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1970		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1971		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1972		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1973		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1974		this delay.
1975
1976 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1977		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1978		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1979		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1980		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1981
1982		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
1983
1984 - CDP Options:
1985		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
1986
1987		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
1988
1989		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
1990
1991		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
1992		of the device.
1993
1994		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1995
1996		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1997		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
1998		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
1999
2000		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
2001
2002		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
2003		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
2004
2005		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
2006
2007		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
2008
2009		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
2010
2011		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
2012
2013		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
2014
2015		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
2016
2017		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
2018
2019		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
2020		device in .1 of milliwatts.
2021
2022		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
2023
2024		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
2025
2026- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2027
2028		Several configurations allow to display the current
2029		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2030		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2031		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2032		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2033		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2034		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2035		feature in U-Boot.
2036
2037		Additional options:
2038
2039		CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2040		The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2041		In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2042		status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2043		to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2044
2045		CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2046		Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2047		case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2048		GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2049		In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2050		with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2051
2052- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2053
2054		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
2055		on those systems that support this (optional)
2056		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2057
2058- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
2059
2060		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
2061		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
2062		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
2063		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
2064		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
2065		interface.

2168		    9 i2c buses for Exynos4 and 1 for S3C24X0 SoCs from Samsung)
2169		    with a fix speed from 100000 and the slave addr 0!
2170
2171		additional defines:
2172
2173		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2174		Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
2175		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2176		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2177		omit this define.
2178
2179		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2180		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2181		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2182		omit this define.
2183
2184		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2185		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2186		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2187		define.
2188
2189		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2190		hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2191		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2192		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2193		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2194
2195		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2196					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
2197					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
2198					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
2199					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
2200					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2201					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2202					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \
2203					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
2204					}
2205
2206		which defines
2207			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
2208			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
2209			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2
2210			bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3
2211			bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4
2212			bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5
2213			bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux
2214			bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1
2215			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2216
2217		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2218
2219- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2220
2221		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2222		provides the following compelling advantages:
2223
2224		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2225		- approved multibus support
2226		- better i2c mux support
2227
2228		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2229
2230		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2231		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2232		for the selected CPU.
2233
2234		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2235		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2236		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2237		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2238		command line interface.
2239
2240		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2241
2242		There are several other quantities that must also be
2243		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2244
2245		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2246		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2247		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2248		the CPU's i2c node address).
2249
2250		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2251		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2252		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2253		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2254		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2255
2256		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2257
2258		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2259		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2260		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2261		commands until the slave device responds.
2262
2263		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2264
2265		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2266		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2267		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2268
2269		I2C_INIT
2270
2271		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2272		controller or configure ports.
2273
2274		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2275
2276		I2C_PORT
2277
2278		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2279		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2280		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2281
2282		I2C_ACTIVE
2283
2284		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2285		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2286		define can be null.
2287
2288		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2289
2290		I2C_TRISTATE
2291
2292		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2293		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2294		define can be null.
2295
2296		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2297
2298		I2C_READ
2299
2300		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2301		false if it is low.
2302
2303		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2304
2305		I2C_SDA(bit)
2306
2307		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2308		is false, it clears it (low).
2309
2310		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2311			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2312			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2313
2314		I2C_SCL(bit)
2315
2316		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2317		is false, it clears it (low).
2318
2319		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2320			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2321			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2322
2323		I2C_DELAY
2324
2325		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2326		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2327		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2328		like:
2329
2330		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2331
2332		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2333
2334		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2335		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2336		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2337		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2338
2339		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2340		the generic GPIO functions.
2341
2342		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2343
2344		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2345		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2346		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2347		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2348		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2349		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2350		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2351		is run early in the boot sequence.
2352
2353		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2354
2355		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2356		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2357		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2358		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2359		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2360		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2361		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2362		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2363
2364		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2365
2366		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2367		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2368		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2369
2370		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2371
2372		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2373		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2374		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2375		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2376
2377		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2378
2379		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2380		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2381		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2382		a 1D array of device addresses
2383
2384		e.g.
2385			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2386			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2387
2388		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2389
2390			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2391			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2392
2393		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2394
2395		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2396
2397		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2398		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2399
2400		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2401
2402		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2403		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2404
2405		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2406
2407		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2408		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2409
2410		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2411
2412		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2413		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2414		specified DTT device.
2415
2416		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2417
2418		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2419		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2420		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2421		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2422		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2423		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2424		the other.
2425
2426- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2427
2428		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2429		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2430		D/As on the SACSng board)
2431
2432		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2433
2434		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2435		only SH7757 is supported.
2436
2437		CONFIG_SPI_X
2438
2439		Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2440		(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2441
2442		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2443
2444		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2445		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2446		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2447		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2448		defined, the board configuration must define several
2449		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2450		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2451
2452		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2453
2454		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2455		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2456		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2457		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2458		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2459
2460		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2461
2462		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2463		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2464
2465- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2466
2467		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2468
2469		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2470
2471		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2472		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2473
2474		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2475
2476		Enables support for FPGA family.
2477		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2478
2479		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2480
2481		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2482
2483		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2484
2485		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2486
2487		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2488
2489		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2490		status by the configuration function. This option
2491		will require a board or device specific function to
2492		be written.
2493
2494		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2495
2496		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2497		configuration driver.
2498
2499		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2500		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2501
2502		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2503
2504		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2505		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2506		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2507		indicated a CRC error).
2508
2509		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2510
2511		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2512		after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2513		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2514		ms.
2515
2516		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2517
2518		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2519		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2520
2521		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2522
2523		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2524		200 ms.
2525
2526- Configuration Management:
2527		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2528
2529		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2530		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2531
2532- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2533
2534		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2535		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2536		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2537		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2538		protects these variables from casual modification by
2539		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2540		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2541		change this behaviour:
2542
2543		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2544		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2545		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2546		these parameters.
2547
2548		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2549		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2550		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2551		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2552		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2553		read-only.]
2554
2555		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2556		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2557		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2558		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2559
2560- Protected RAM:
2561		CONFIG_PRAM
2562
2563		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2564		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2565		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2566		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2567		this default value by defining an environment
2568		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2569		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2570		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2571		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2572		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2573		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2574		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2575
2576			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2577			saveenv
2578
2579		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2580		either, which results in a memory region that will
2581		not be affected by reboots.
2582
2583		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2584		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2585		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2586		following board configurations are known to be
2587		"pRAM-clean":
2588
2589			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2590			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2591			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2592
2593- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2594		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2595		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2596		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2597		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2598		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2599		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2600
2601- Error Recovery:
2602		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2603
2604		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2605		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2606		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2607		system where you want the system to reboot
2608		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2609		useful during development since you can try to debug
2610		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2611
2612		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2613
2614		This variable defines the number of retries for
2615		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2616		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2617		default value of 5 is used.
2618
2619		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2620
2621		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2622
2623		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2624
2625		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2626		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2627		try longer timeout such as
2628		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2629
2630- Command Interpreter:
2631		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2632
2633		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2634
2635		Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2636		for the "hush" shell.
2637
2638
2639		CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2640
2641		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2642		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2643		powerful command line syntax like
2644		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2645		constructs ("shell scripts").
2646
2647		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2648		with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2649
2650
2651		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2652
2653		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2654		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2655		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2656
2657	Note:
2658
2659		In the current implementation, the local variables
2660		space and global environment variables space are
2661		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2662		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2663		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2664		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2665		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2666
2667		Global environment variables are those you use
2668		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2669		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2670		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2671
2672		To store commands and special characters in a
2673		variable, please use double quotation marks
2674		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2675		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2676		symbols.
2677
2678- Commandline Editing and History:
2679		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2680
2681		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2682		commandline input operations
2683
2684- Default Environment:
2685		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2686
2687		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2688		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2689		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2690
2691		For example, place something like this in your
2692		board's config file:
2693
2694		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2695			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2696			"myvar2=value2\0"
2697
2698		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2699		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2700		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2701		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2702		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2703		You better know what you are doing here.
2704
2705		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2706		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2707		the environment like the "source" command or the
2708		boot command first.
2709
2710		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2711
2712		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2713		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2714		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2715
2716		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2717
2718		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2719		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2720		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2721		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2722		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2723
2724		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2725
2726		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2727		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2728		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2729
2730		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2731
2732		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2733		intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2734		that so that the environment is not available until
2735		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2736		this is instead controlled by the value of
2737		/config/load-environment.
2738
2739- DataFlash Support:
2740		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2741
2742		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2743		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2744		commands cp, md...
2745
2746- Serial Flash support
2747		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2748
2749		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2750		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2751
2752		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2753		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2754		commands.
2755
2756		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2757		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2758		flash is present on the system.
2759
2760		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2761		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2762		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2763		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2764
2765		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2766
2767		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2768		test ('sf test').
2769
2770		CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR		Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2771
2772		Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2773		support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2774
2775		CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH		Dual flash memories
2776
2777		Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
2778		memories can be connected with a given cs line.
2779		currently Xilinx Zynq qspi support these type of connections.
2780
2781- SystemACE Support:
2782		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2783
2784		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2785		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2786		of the chip must also be defined in the
2787		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2788
2789		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2790		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2791
2792		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2793		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2794
2795- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2796		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2797
2798		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2799		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2800		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2801		number generator is used.
2802
2803		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2804		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
2805		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2806
2807		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2808		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2809		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2810		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2811		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2812		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2813		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2814
2815- Hashing support:
2816		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
2817
2818		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2819		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2820
2821		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
2822
2823		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2824		size a little.
2825
2826		CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2827		CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2828
2829		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2830		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2831
2832- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
2833		CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
2834		This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
2835		HDMI monitor is detected.  This command is i.MX 6 specific.
2836
2837		CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
2838		This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
2839		a boot from specific media.
2840
2841		This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
2842		activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
2843		on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running bmode normal
2844		will set it back to normal.  This command currently
2845		supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
2846
2847- Signing support:
2848		CONFIG_RSA
2849
2850		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
2851		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
2852
2853		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
2854		option.
2855
2856- bootcount support:
2857		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
2858
2859		This enables the bootcounter support, see:
2860		http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
2861
2862		CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
2863		enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
2864		CONFIG_BLACKFIN
2865		enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
2866		CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
2867		enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
2868		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
2869		enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
2870		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
2871		enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
2872			CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
2873			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
2874						    the bootcounter.
2875			CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
2876
2877- Show boot progress:
2878		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2879
2880		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2881		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2882		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2883		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2884		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2885		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2886
2887- Detailed boot stage timing
2888		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
2889		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
2890		of the boot process.
2891
2892		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
2893		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
2894		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
2895		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
2896		the limit, recording will stop.
2897
2898		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
2899		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
2900
2901		Timer summary in microseconds:
2902		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
2903			  0          0  reset
2904		  3,575,678  3,575,678  board_init_f start
2905		  3,575,695         17  arch_cpu_init A9
2906		  3,575,777         82  arch_cpu_init done
2907		  3,659,598     83,821  board_init_r start
2908		  3,910,375    250,777  main_loop
2909		 29,916,167 26,005,792  bootm_start
2910		 30,361,327    445,160  start_kernel
2911
2912		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
2913		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
2914		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
2915
2916		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
2917		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
2918		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
2919		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
2920		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
2921		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
2922		For example:
2923
2924		bootstage {
2925			154 {
2926				name = "board_init_f";
2927				mark = <3575678>;
2928			};
2929			170 {
2930				name = "lcd";
2931				accum = <33482>;
2932			};
2933		};
2934
2935		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

3091		CONFIG_FIT
3092		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
3093
3094		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3095		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3096		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3097		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3098		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3099		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3100
3101		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
3102		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
3103		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See
3104		doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
3105
3106- Standalone program support:
3107		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3108
3109		This option defines a board specific value for the

3113
3114- Frame Buffer Address:
3115		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
3116
3117		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3118		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
3119		when using a graphics controller has separate video
3120		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3121		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3122		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3123		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3124		configured panel size.
3125
3126		Please see board_init_f function.
3127
3128- Automatic software updates via TFTP server

3157		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
3158		warnings and errors enabled.
3159
3160- UBIFS support
3161		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3162
3163		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3164		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3165
3166		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3167
3168		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3169

3389		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3390		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3391
3392Modem Support:
3393--------------
3394
3395[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3396
3397- Modem support enable:
3398		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3399
3400- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3401		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3402
3403- Modem debug support:
3404		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3405
3406		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3407		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3408
3409- Interrupt support (PPC):
3410
3411		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3412		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3413		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3414		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3415		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3416		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3417		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3418		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3419		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3420		general timer_interrupt().
3421
3422- General:
3423
3424		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3425		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3426		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3427		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3428		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3429		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3430		initialization.
3431
3432		If there are no modem init strings in the
3433		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3434		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3435		suppressed, though.
3436
3437		See also: doc/README.Modem
3438
3439Board initialization settings:
3440------------------------------
3441
3442During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3443to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3444before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3445following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3446architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3447typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3448
3449- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3450- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3451- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3452- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3453
3454Configuration Settings:
3455-----------------------
3456
3457- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3458		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3459
3460- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3461		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3462
3463- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3464		prompt for user input.
3465
3466- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3467
3468- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3469
3470- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3471
3472- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3473		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3474		booted
3475
3476- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3477		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3478
3479- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3480		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3481
3482- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3483		If the board specific function
3484			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3485		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3486		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3487
3488- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3489		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3490
3491- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3492		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3493
3494- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3495		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3496		simple memory test.
3497
3498- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3499		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3500
3501- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3502		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3503		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3504
3505- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3506		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3507		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3508		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3509		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3510		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3511		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3512		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3513		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3514		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3515
3516		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3517		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3518		be touched.
3519
3520		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3521		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3522		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3523		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3524		problems.
3525
3526- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3527		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3528
3529- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3530		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3531
3532- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3533		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3534		Cogent motherboard)
3535
3536- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3537		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3538
3539- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3540		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3541		make config files to be same as the text base address
3542		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3543		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3544
3545- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3546		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3547		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3548		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3549		flash sector.
3550
3551- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3552		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3553
3554- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3555		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3556		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3557		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3558		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3559
3560- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3561		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3562		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3563		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3564		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3565		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3566		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3567		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3568		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3569		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3570		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3571
3572- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3573		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3574		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3575		is enabled.
3576
3577- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3578		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3579		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3580
3581- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3582		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3583		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3584
3585- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3586		Max number of Flash memory banks
3587
3588- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3589		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3590
3591- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3592		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3593
3594- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3595		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3596
3597- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3598		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3599
3600- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3601		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3602
3603- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3604		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3605		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3606
3607- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3608
3609		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3610		without this option such a download has to be
3611		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3612		copy from RAM to flash.
3613
3614		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3615		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3616		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3617		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3618		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3619
3620- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3621		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3622		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3623
3624- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3625		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3626		in the drivers directory
3627
3628- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3629		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3630		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3631		to the MTD layer.
3632
3633- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3634		Use buffered writes to flash.
3635
3636- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3637		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3638		write commands.
3639
3640- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3641		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3642		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3643		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3644		optionally available.
3645
3646- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3647		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3648		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3649		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3650
3651- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3652		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3653		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3654		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3655		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3656		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3657		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3658		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3659
3660- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3661		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3662		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3663		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3664		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3665		on high Ethernet traffic.
3666		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3667
3668- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3669
3670	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3671	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3672	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3673	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3674	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3675
3676- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3677- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3678	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3679	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3680	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3681	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3682
3683	The format of the list is:
3684		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3685		access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
3686		attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
3687		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3688		list = entry[,list]
3689
3690	The type attributes are:
3691		s - String (default)
3692		d - Decimal
3693		x - Hexadecimal
3694		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3695		i - IP address
3696		m - MAC address
3697
3698	The access attributes are:
3699		a - Any (default)
3700		r - Read-only
3701		o - Write-once
3702		c - Change-default
3703
3704	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3705		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3706		envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3707
3708	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3709		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3710		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3711		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
3712		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3713		".flags" variable.
3714
3715- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3716	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3717	access flags.
3718
3719- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
3720	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
3721	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
3722	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
3723	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
3724	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
3725	must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
3726	its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
3727	your board please report the problem and send patches!
3728
3729- CONFIG_SYS_SYM_OFFSETS
3730	This is set by architectures that use offsets for link symbols
3731	instead of absolute values. So bss_start is obtained using an
3732	offset _bss_start_ofs from CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, rather than
3733	directly. You should not need to touch this setting.
3734
3735- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
3736	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
3737	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
3738	the value can be calulated on a given board.
3739
3740The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3741of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3742following configurations:
3743
3744- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3745
3746	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3747	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3748
3749- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
3750
3751	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
3752
3753	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
3754	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
3755	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
3756	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
3757	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
3758	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
3759	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
3760	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
3761	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
3762	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
3763	   between U-Boot and the environment.
3764
3765	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3766
3767	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
3768	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
3769	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
3770	   for this sector is given here.
3771
3772	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
3773
3774	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3775
3776	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
3777	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
3778	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
3779
3780	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
3781
3782	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
3783
3784
3785	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
3786	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
3787	   the environment.
3788
3789	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3790
3791	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
3792	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
3793	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
3794	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
3795
3796	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
3797	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
3798	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
3799	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
3800	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
3801	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
3802	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
3803	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
3804	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
3805
3806	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
3807	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
3808
3809	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
3810	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
3811	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
3812	   a "saveenv" operation.
3813
3814BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
3815source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
3816accordingly!
3817
3818
3819- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
3820
3821	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
3822	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
3823	environment.
3824
3825	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3826	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3827
3828	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
3829	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
3830	  can just be read and written to, without any special
3831	  provision.
3832
3833BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3834in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
3835console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
3836U-Boot will hang.
3837
3838Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3839environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3840keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3841to save the current settings.
3842
3843
3844- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
3845
3846	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
3847	device and a driver for it.
3848
3849	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3850	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3851
3852	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
3853	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
3854
3855	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
3856	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
3857	  The default address is zero.
3858
3859	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
3860	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
3861	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
3862	  would require six bits.
3863
3864	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
3865	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
3866	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
3867
3868	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
3869	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
3870	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
3871
3872	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
3873	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
3874	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
3875	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
3876	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
3877	  byte chips.
3878
3879	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
3880	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
3881	  in the chip address.
3882
3883	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
3884	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
3885
3886	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
3887	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
3888	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
3889
3890	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
3891	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
3892	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
3893	  EEPROM. For example:
3894
3895	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
3896
3897	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
3898	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
3899
3900- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
3901
3902	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
3903	want to use for the environment.
3904
3905	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3906	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3907	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3908
3909	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
3910	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
3911	  at the specified address.
3912
3913- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
3914
3915	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
3916	want to use for the local device's environment.
3917
3918	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3919	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3920
3921	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
3922	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
3923	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
3924	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
3925
3926BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3927"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
3928environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3929but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
3930
3931- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
3932
3933	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
3934	for the environment.
3935
3936	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3937	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3938
3939	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
3940	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
3941	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3942
3943	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
3944
3945	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
3946	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
3947	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
3948	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
3949	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3950
3951	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
3952
3953	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
3954	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
3955	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
3956	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
3957	  the range to be avoided.
3958
3959	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
3960
3961	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
3962	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
3963	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
3964	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
3965	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
3966
3967- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
3968
3969	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
3970	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
3971	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3972
3973- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
3974
3975	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
3976	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
3977	accesses, which is important on NAND.
3978
3979	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
3980
3981	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
3982
3983	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
3984
3985	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
3986	  environment in.
3987
3988	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
3989
3990	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
3991	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
3992	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
3993
3994	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3995	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3996
3997	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
3998	  when storing the env in UBI.
3999
4000- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
4001
4002	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
4003	environment.
4004
4005	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4006
4007	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4008
4009	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4010
4011	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4012	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4013	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4014
4015	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4016	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4017
4018	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4019	  area within the specified MMC device.
4020
4021	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4022	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4023	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4024	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4025	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4026	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4027	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4028
4029	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4030	  MMC sector boundary.
4031
4032	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4033
4034	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4035	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4036	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4037	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4038
4039	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4040	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4041
4042	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4043	  an MMC sector boundary.
4044
4045	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4046
4047	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4048	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4049	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4050
4051- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
4052
4053	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4054	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4055	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4056	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4057	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4058	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4059	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4060
4061Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
4062has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
4063created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
4064until then to read environment variables.
4065
4066The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4067is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4068with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4069necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4070"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4071have any device yet where we could complain.]
4072
4073Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4074the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
4075use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
4076
4077- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
4078		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
4079
4080		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
4081		      also needs to be defined.
4082
4083- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
4084		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
4085
4086- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
4087		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
4088		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
4089		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
4090		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
4091		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
4092
4093- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
4094		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
4095		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
4096		to do this.
4097
4098- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
4099		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
4100		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
4101		present.
4102
4103Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
4104---------------------------------------------------
4105
4106- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
4107		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
4108
4109- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
4110		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
4111
4112		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4113		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
4114		the IMMR register after a reset.
4115
4116- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4117		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4118		PowerPC SOCs.
4119
4120- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4121		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4122		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4123
4124		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4125		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4126
4127- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4128		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
4129		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
4130		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
4131		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
4132		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
4133		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4134
4135		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4136			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4137
4138- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
4139		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
4140		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
4141		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4142		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4143
4144- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4145		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
4146		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4147		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4148
4149- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4150		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4151		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
4152
4153- Floppy Disk Support:
4154		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
4155
4156		the default drive number (default value 0)
4157
4158		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
4159
4160		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
4161		(default value 1)
4162
4163		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
4164
4165		defines the offset of register from address. It
4166		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
4167		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
4168
4169		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
4170		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
4171		default value.
4172
4173		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
4174		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
4175		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
4176		source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
4177		initializations.
4178
4179- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
4180		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
4181		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
4182		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
4183		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
4184		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
4185		is requierd.
4186
4187- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
4188		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
4189		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
4190
4191- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
4192
4193		Start address of memory area that can be used for
4194		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
4195		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
4196		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
4197		will become available only after programming the
4198		memory controller and running certain initialization
4199		sequences.
4200
4201		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
4202		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
4203		- MPC824X: data cache
4204		- PPC4xx:  data cache
4205
4206- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
4207
4208		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
4209		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
4210		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
4211		data is located at the end of the available space
4212		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
4213		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
4214		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
4215		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
4216
4217	Note:
4218		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
4219		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
4220		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
4221		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
4222		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.
4223

4257		Machine Mode Register and Memory Periodic Timer
4258		Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing)
4259
4260- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4261		enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4262		define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2]
4263
4264- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4265		enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4266		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1]
4267
4268- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]:
4269		enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx);
4270		define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4]
4271
4272- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK:
4273		Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful,
4274		wrong setting might damage your board. Read
4275		doc/README.MBX before setting this variable!
4276
4277- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only)
4278		Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post
4279		(Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides
4280		#define'd default value in commproc.h resp.
4281		cpm_8260.h.
4282
4283- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB,
4284  CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL,

4292
4293- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
4294		Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
4295		required.
4296
4297- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
4298		Only scan through and get the devices on the busses.
4299		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
4300		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
4301		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4302		by coreboot or similar.
4303
4304- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
4305		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
4306

4327
4328- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
4329		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
4330		a 16 bit bus.
4331		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
4332		Example of drivers that use it:
4333		- drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c

4335
4336- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG

4342		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
4343
4344  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
4345		I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
4346
4347- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM

4350		to something your driver can deal with.
4351
4352- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4353		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4354		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
4355		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
4356		header files or board specific files.
4357
4358- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
4359		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4360
4361- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4362		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4363		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4364
4365- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4366		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4367
4368- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4369		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4370		to the given FEC; i. e.
4371			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4372		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4373
4374		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4375
4376- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4377		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4378		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4379
4380- CONFIG_RMII
4381		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4382		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4383		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4384
4385- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4386		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4387		The syntax is:
4388
4389		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4390
4391		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4392		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4393		area should have.
4394
4395- CONFIG_LOOPW
4396		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4397		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4398
4399- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4400		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4401		"md/mw" commands.
4402		Examples:
4403
4404		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4405		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4406
4407		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4408		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4409
4410		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4411		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4412
4413- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4414		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4415		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4416		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4417		relocate itself into RAM.
4418
4419		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4420		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4421		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4422		these initializations itself.
4423
4424- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4425		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4426		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4427		compiling a NAND SPL.
4428
4429- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4430		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
4431		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4432		It is loaded by the SPL.
4433
4434- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4435		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4436		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4437		previous 4k of the .text section.
4438
4439- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4440		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4441		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4442		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4443		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4444		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4445		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4446		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4447
4448- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4449  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4450		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4451		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4452		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4453
4454- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4455		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4456		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4457
4458- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4459		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4460
4461		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4462
4463- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
4464		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
4465
4466Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4467-----------------------------------
4468
4469The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4470loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4471This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4472are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4473within that device.
4474
4475- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4476	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4477	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4478	is also specified.
4479
4480- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4481	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4482	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4483	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4484	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4485
4486- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4487	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4488	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4489	virtual address in NOR flash.
4490
4491- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4492	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4493	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4494
4495- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4496	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4497	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4498
4499- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4500	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4501	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4502
4503- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4504	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4505	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4506	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4507	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4508	master's memory space.
4509
4510Building the Software:
4511======================
4512
4513Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4514and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4515all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4516(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4517recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4518which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4519
4520If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4521have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4522you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4523Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4524necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4525
4526	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4527	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
4528
4529Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4530      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4531      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4532      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
4533
4534       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4535
4536      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4537      be executed on computers running Windows.
4538
4539U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4540sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4541is done by typing:
4542
4543	make NAME_config
4544
4545where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
4546rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
4547
4548Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4549      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
4550      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
4551      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
4552      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4553
4554      make TQM823L_config
4555	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4556
4557      make TQM823L_LCD_config
4558	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
4559
4560      etc.
4561
4562
4563Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
4564images ready for download to / installation on your system:
4565
4566- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
4567- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
4568- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
4569
4570By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4571in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4572this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4573
45741. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4575
4576	make O=/tmp/build distclean
4577	make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
4578	make O=/tmp/build all
4579
45802. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
4581
4582	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4583	make distclean
4584	make NAME_config
4585	make all
4586
4587Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
4588variable.
4589
4590
4591Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
4592for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
4593native "make".
4594
4595
4596If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
4597to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
4598steps:
4599
46001.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
4601    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
4602    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
46032.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
4604    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
4605    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
46063.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
4607    your board
46083.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
4609    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
46104.  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
46115.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
4612    to be installed on your target system.
46136.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
4614    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
4615
4616
4617Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
4618==============================================================
4619
4620If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
4621or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
4622provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
4623the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
4624official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
4625
4626But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
4627cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
4628the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
4629just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
4630for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
4631select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
4632environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
4633you can type
4634
4635	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4636
4637or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
4638
4639	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
4640
4641When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
4642U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
4643setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
4644built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
4645<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
4646location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
4647variable. For example:
4648
4649	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4650	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
4651	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4652
4653With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
4654log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
4655during the whole build process.

4712
4713TODO.
4714
4715For now: just type "help <command>".
4716
4717
4718Environment Variables:
4719======================
4720
4721U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
4722can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
4723
4724Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
4725"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
4726without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
4727environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
4728working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
4729environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
4730
4731Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
4732
4733List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
4734
4735  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
4736
4737  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
4738
4739  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
4740
4741  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
4742
4743  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
4744
4745  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4746		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4747		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
4748		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
4749		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
4750		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
4751		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
4752		  bootm_mapsize.
4753
4754  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
4755		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
4756		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
4757		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
4758		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
4759		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
4760		  used otherwise.
4761
4762  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4763		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4764		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
4765		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
4766		  environment variable.
4767
4768  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
4769		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
4770		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
4771
4772  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
4773		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
4774		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
4775		  load any image using TFTP
4776
4777  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
4778		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
4779		  be automatically started (by internally calling
4780		  "bootm")
4781
4782		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
4783		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
4784		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
4785		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
4786		  data.
4787
4788  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
4789		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
4790		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
4791		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
4792		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
4793		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
4794		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
4795		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
4796		  access it during the boot procedure.
4797
4798		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
4799		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
4800		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
4801		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
4802		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
4803		  must be accessible by the kernel.
4804
4805  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
4806		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
4807		  defined.
4808
4809  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
4810		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
4811		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
4812		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
4813		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
4814
4815  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
4816		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4817		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4818		  is usually what you want since it allows for
4819		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4820		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
4821		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
4822		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4823		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4824		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4825		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
4826
4827		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
4828		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4829		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4830		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
4831		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4832		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4833
4834		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4835
4836		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
4837		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
4838		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
4839		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
4840		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
4841		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
4842		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
4843
4844  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4845
4846  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
4847		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
4848
4849  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4850
4851  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4852
4853  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
4854
4855  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
4856
4857  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
4858
4859  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4860
4861  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4862		  For example you can do the following
4863
4864		  => setenv ethact FEC
4865		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
4866		  => setenv ethact SCC
4867		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4868
4869  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4870		  available network interfaces.
4871		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4872
4873  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4874		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
4875		  When set to "once" the network operation will
4876		  fail when all the available network interfaces
4877		  are tried once without success.
4878		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4879		  themselves.
4880
4881  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
4882
4883  silent_linux  - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by
4884		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
4885		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
4886		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
4887		  is silent.
4888
4889  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
4890		  UDP source port.
4891
4892  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
4893		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
4894
4895  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4896		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4897
4898  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4899		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4900		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4901		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4902		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4903		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4904		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
4905
4906  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
4907		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
4908		  VLAN tagged frames.
4909
4910The following image location variables contain the location of images
4911used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4912not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4913variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4914server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4915loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4916flash or offset in NAND flash.
4917
4918*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4919boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
4920boards use these variables for other purposes.
4921
4922Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
4923-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
4924u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
4925Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
4926device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
4927ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
4928
4929The following environment variables may be used and automatically
4930updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
4931depending the information provided by your boot server:
4932
4933  bootfile	- see above
4934  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
4935  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
4936  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
4937  hostname	- Target hostname
4938  ipaddr	- see above
4939  netmask	- Subnet Mask
4940  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
4941  serverip	- see above
4942
4943
4944There are two special Environment Variables:
4945
4946  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
4947		  as type string and/or serial number
4948  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
4949
4950These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4951the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4952once they have been set once.
4953
4954
4955Further special Environment Variables:
4956
4957  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4958		  with the "version" command. This variable is
4959		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
4960
4961
4962Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
4963only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
4964
4965
4966Callback functions for environment variables:
4967---------------------------------------------
4968
4969For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
4970when their values are changed.  This functionailty allows functions to
4971be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
4972deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
4973effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
4974
4975The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
4976U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
4977
4978These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
4979static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
4980in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
4981associations.  The list must be in the following format:
4982
4983	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
4984	list = entry[,list]
4985
4986If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
4987Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
4988
4989Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
4990with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
4991override any association in the static list. You can define
4992CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
4993".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4994
4995
4996Command Line Parsing:
4997=====================
4998
4999There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5000the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
5001
5002Old, simple command line parser:
5003--------------------------------
5004
5005- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5006- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
5007- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
5008- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5009  for example:
5010	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
5011- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5012	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
5013
5014Hush shell:
5015-----------
5016
5017- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5018  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5019  until...do...done, ...
5020- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5021  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5022  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5023  command
5024
5025General rules:
5026--------------
5027
5028(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5029    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5030    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5031    executed anyway.
5032
5033(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
5034    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
5035    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5036    variables are not executed.
5037
5038Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5039=======================================
5040
5041Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
5042such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5043"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
5044
5045Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5046MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5047"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
5048
5049If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5050in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5051ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5052variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
5053
5054o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5055  environment, the SROM's address is used.
5056
5057o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5058  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5059  used.
5060
5061o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5062  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
5063
5064o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5065  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5066  warning is printed.
5067
5068o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5069  is raised.
5070
5071If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
5072will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
5073may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5074The naming convention is as follows:
5075"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
5076
5077Image Formats:
5078==============
5079
5080U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5081images in two formats:
5082
5083New uImage format (FIT)
5084-----------------------
5085
5086Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5087to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5088components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5089SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5090
5091
5092Old uImage format
5093-----------------
5094
5095Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5096preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5097details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
5098
5099* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
5100  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
5101  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
5102  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
5103  INTEGRITY).
5104* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
5105  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
5106  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
5107* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
5108* Load Address
5109* Entry Point
5110* Image Name
5111* Image Timestamp
5112
5113The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
5114and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
5115CRC32 checksums.
5116
5117
5118Linux Support:
5119==============
5120
5121Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5122easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5123U-Boot.
5124
5125U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5126special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5127"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5128instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5129serves several purposes:
5130
5131- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5132  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5133  Flash memory footprint)
5134
5135- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5136  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
5137
5138- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5139  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5140  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5141  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5142  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5143  software is easier now.
5144
5145
5146Linux HOWTO:
5147============
5148
5149Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
5150---------------------------------------
5151
5152U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5153configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5154(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
5155Linux :-).
5156
5157But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
5158
5159Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5160include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
5161Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5162and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
5163as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
5164
5165
5166Configuring the Linux kernel:
5167-----------------------------
5168
5169No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5170device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
5171
5172
5173Building a Linux Image:
5174-----------------------
5175
5176With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5177not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5178"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5179U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5180which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5181100% compatible format.
5182
5183Example:
5184
5185	make TQM850L_config
5186	make oldconfig
5187	make dep
5188	make uImage
5189
5190The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5191encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
5192CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
5193
5194* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
5195
5196* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
5197
5198	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5199				 -R .note -R .comment \
5200				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
5201
5202* compress the binary image:
5203
5204	gzip -9 linux.bin
5205
5206* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
5207
5208	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5209		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5210		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
5211
5212
5213The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5214with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5215combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5216byte header containing information about target architecture,
5217operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5218stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
5219
5220"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5221print the header information, or to build new images.
5222
5223In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5224contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5225checksum verification:
5226
5227	tools/mkimage -l image
5228	  -l ==> list image header information
5229
5230The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5231from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
5232
5233	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5234		      -n name -d data_file image
5235	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5236	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5237	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5238	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5239	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5240	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5241	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5242	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
5243
5244Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5245address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5246kernel version:
5247
5248- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5249- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
5250
5251So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
5252
5253	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5254	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
5255	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
5256	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
5257	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5258	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5259	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5260	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5261	Load Address: 0x00000000
5262	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5263
5264To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5265
5266	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5267	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5268	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5269	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5270	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5271	Load Address: 0x00000000
5272	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5273
5274NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5275speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5276needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5277need to be uncompressed:
5278
5279	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5280	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5281	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5282	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5283	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5284	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5285	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5286	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5287	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5288	Load Address: 0x00000000
5289	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5290
5291
5292Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5293when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5294
5295	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5296	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5297	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5298	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5299	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5300	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5301	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5302	Load Address: 0x00000000
5303	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5304
5305The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
5306option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5307option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5308from the image:
5309
5310	tools/dumpimage -i image -p position data_file
5311	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file', \
5312	   indexed by 'position'
5313
5314
5315Installing a Linux Image:
5316-------------------------
5317
5318To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5319you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5320
5321	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5322
5323The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5324image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5325address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5326specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5327command.
5328
5329Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5330TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5331
5332	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5333
5334	.......... done
5335	Erased 8 sectors
5336
5337	=> loads 40100000
5338	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5339	~>examples/image.srec
5340	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
5341	...
5342	15989 15990 15991 15992
5343	[file transfer complete]
5344	[connected]
5345	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5346
5347
5348You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5349this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5350corruption happened:
5351
5352	=> imi 40100000
5353
5354	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
5355	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L
5356	   Image Type:	 PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5357	   Data Size:	 335725 Bytes = 327 kB = 0 MB
5358	   Load Address: 00000000
5359	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
5360	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
5361
5362
5363Boot Linux:
5364-----------
5365
5366The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5367memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5368of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5369parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5370"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5371
5372
5373	=> printenv bootargs
5374	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5375
5376	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

5495More About U-Boot Image Types:
5496------------------------------
5497
5498U-Boot supports the following image types:
5499
5500   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5501	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5502	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5503	the Standalone Program.
5504   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5505	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5506	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5507	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5508	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5509   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5510	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5511	being started.
5512   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5513	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5514	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5515	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5516	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5517	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5518
5519	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5520	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5521	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5522	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5523	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5524	a multiple of 4 bytes).
5525
5526   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5527	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5528	flash memory.
5529
5530   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5531	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5532	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5533	as command interpreter.
5534
5535Booting the Linux zImage:
5536-------------------------
5537
5538On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5539using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5540as the syntax of "bootm" command.
5541
5542Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5543kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5544address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5545format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
5546
5547
5548Standalone HOWTO:
5549=================
5550
5551One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5552run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5553U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5554
5555Two simple examples are included with the sources:
5556
5557"Hello World" Demo:
5558-------------------
5559
5560'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5561application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5562It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5563like that:
5564
5565	=> loads
5566	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5567	~>examples/hello_world.srec
5568	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
5569	[file transfer complete]
5570	[connected]
5571	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
5572
5573	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
5574	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
5575	Hello World
5576	argc = 7
5577	argv[0] = "40004"
5578	argv[1] = "Hello"
5579	argv[2] = "World!"
5580	argv[3] = "This"
5581	argv[4] = "is"
5582	argv[5] = "a"
5583	argv[6] = "test."
5584	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
5585	Hit any key to exit ...
5586
5587	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
5588
5589Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
5590handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
5591Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
5592The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
5593character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
5594controlled by the following keys:
5595
5596	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
5597	b - enable interrupts and start timer
5598	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
5599	q - quit application
5600
5601	=> loads

5636Minicom warning:
5637================
5638
5639Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
5640"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
5641consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
5642Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
5643especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
5644use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
5645http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
5646for help with kermit.
5647
5648
5649Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
5650configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
5651
5652	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
5653	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N

5657NetBSD Notes:
5658=============
5659
5660Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
5661(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
5662
5663Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
5664NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
5665need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
5666Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
5667attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
5668missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
5669
5670	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
5671	# mkdir powerpc
5672	# ln -s powerpc machine
5673	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
5674	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
5675
5676Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
5677and U-Boot include files.
5678
5679Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
5680stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
5681proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
5682tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
5683meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
5684
5685
5686Implementation Internals:
5687=========================
5688
5689The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
5690implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
5691inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
5692hardware.
5693
5694
5695Initial Stack, Global Data:
5696---------------------------
5697
5698The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
5699starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
5700system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
5701This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
5702is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
5703at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
5704options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
5705models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
5706MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
5707locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
5708
5709	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
5710	U-Boot mailing list:
5711
5712	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
5713	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
5714	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
5715	...
5716
5717	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
5718	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
5719	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
5720	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
5721	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
5722	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
5723	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
5724	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
5725
5726	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
5727	is another option for the system designer to use as an
5728	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
5729	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
5730	board designers haven't used it for something that would
5731	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
5732	used.
5733
5734	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
5735	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
5736	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
5737	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
5738	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
5739	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
5740	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
5741	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
5742	you get the config right.

5746
5747It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
5748code for the initialization procedures:
5749
5750* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
5751  to write it.
5752
5753* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
5754  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
5755  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
5756
5757* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
5758  that.
5759
5760Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
5761normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
5762turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
5763simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
5764functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
5765functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
5766the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
5767place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
5768reserve for this purpose.
5769
5770When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
5771relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
5772GCC's implementation.
5773
5774For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
5775	R1:	stack pointer
5776	R2:	reserved for system use
5777	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
5778	R5-R10: parameter passing
5779	R13:	small data area pointer
5780	R30:	GOT pointer
5781	R31:	frame pointer
5782
5783	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
5784	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
5785	going back and forth between asm and C)
5786
5787    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
5788
5789    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
5790    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
5791    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
5792    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
5793    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
5794    624 text + 127 data).
5795
5796On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
5797	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
5798
5799    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
5800
5801On ARM, the following registers are used:
5802
5803	R0:	function argument word/integer result
5804	R1-R3:	function argument word
5805	R9:	platform specific
5806	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
5807	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
5808	R12:	temporary workspace
5809	R13:	stack pointer
5810	R14:	link register
5811	R15:	program counter
5812
5813    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
5814
5815    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
5816
5817On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
5818	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
5819
5820    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data

5822    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
5823    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
5824
5825On NDS32, the following registers are used:
5826
5827	R0-R1:	argument/return
5828	R2-R5:	argument
5829	R15:	temporary register for assembler
5830	R16:	trampoline register
5831	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
5832	R29:	global pointer (GP)
5833	R30:	link register (LP)
5834	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
5835	PC:	program counter (PC)
5836
5837    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
5838
5839NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
5840or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
5841
5842Memory Management:
5843------------------
5844
5845U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5846MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5847
5848The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5849controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5850memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5851physical memory banks.
5852
5853U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5854TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5855booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5856to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
5857memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5858configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5859Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5860
5861Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5862of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5863
5864So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5865this:
5866
5867	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5868	      :
5869	0x0000 1FFF
5870	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5871	      :
5872	      :
5873
5874	      :
5875	      :
5876	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5877	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5878	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5879	      :
5880	0x00FD FFFF
5881	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5882	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5883	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5884	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5885
5886
5887System Initialization:
5888----------------------
5889
5890In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
5891(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5892configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
5893To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5894To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5895initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5896which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
5897part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
5898the caches and the SIU.
5899
5900Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5901preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5902(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5903on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5904programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5905simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5906banks.
5907
5908When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
5909different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5910bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
59110x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5912contiguous memory starting from 0.
5913
5914Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5915and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5916Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5917pages, and the final stack is set up.
5918
5919Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5920until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5921running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5922new address in RAM.

5999Coding Standards:
6000-----------------
6001
6002All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
6003coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
6004"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
6005
6006Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6007MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6008reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6009sources.
6010
6011Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6012Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6013in your code.
6014
6015Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6016- remove any trailing white space
6017- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
6018- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
6019- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
6020- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6021
6022Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6023with a request to reformat the changes.
6024
6025
6026Submitting Patches:
6027-------------------
6028
6029Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6030establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6031may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
6032
6033Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
6034
6035Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6036see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6037
6038When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6039it:
6040
6041* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6042  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6043  patch actually fixes something.
6044
6045* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6046  implementation.
6047
6048* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6049
6050* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
6051
6052* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6053  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
6054
6055* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6056  document these in the README file.
6057
6058* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6059  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
6060  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
6061  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6062  with some other mail clients.
6063
6064  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6065  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6066  GNU diff.
6067
6068  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6069  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6070  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6071  affected files).
6072
6073  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6074  and compressed attachments must not be used.
6075
6076* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6077  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6078
6079* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6080  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6081
6082
6083Notes:
6084
6085* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6086  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6087  for any of the boards.
6088
6089* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6090  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6091  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6092
6093* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6094  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6095  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6096  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6097  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6098  modification.
6099
6100* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6101  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6102  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6103  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
