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 file to find out who contributed
38the specific port. In addition, there are various MAINTAINERS files
39scattered throughout the U-Boot source identifying the people or
40companies responsible for various boards and subsystems.
41
42Note: As of August, 2010, there is no longer a CHANGELOG file in the
43actual U-Boot source tree; however, it can be created dynamically
44from the Git log using:
45
46	make CHANGELOG

168
169Software Configuration:
170=======================
171
172Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
173rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
174
175There are two classes of configuration variables:
176
177* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
178  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
179  "CONFIG_".
180
181* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
182  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
183  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
184  "CONFIG_SYS_".
185
186Previously, all configuration was done by hand, which involved creating
187symbolic links and editing configuration files manually. More recently,
188U-Boot has added the Kbuild infrastructure used by the Linux kernel,
189allowing you to use the "make menuconfig" command to configure your
190build.
191
192
193Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
194---------------------------------------------------
195
196For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
197configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig".
198
199Example: For a TQM823L module type:
200
201	cd u-boot
202	make TQM823L_defconfig
203
204Note: If you're looking for the default configuration file for a board
205you're sure used to be there but is now missing, check the file
206doc/README.scrapyard for a list of no longer supported boards.
207
208Sandbox Environment:
209--------------------
210
211U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox'
212board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture-
213specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to
214run some of U-Boot's tests.
215
216See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details.
217
218
219Board Initialisation Flow:
220--------------------------
221
222This is the intended start-up flow for boards. This should apply for both
223SPL and U-Boot proper (i.e. they both follow the same rules).
224
225Note: "SPL" stands for "Secondary Program Loader," which is explained in
226more detail later in this file.
227
228At present, SPL mostly uses a separate code path, but the function names
229and roles of each function are the same. Some boards or architectures
230may not conform to this.  At least most ARM boards which use
231CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK conform to this.
232
233Execution typically starts with an architecture-specific (and possibly
234CPU-specific) start.S file, such as:
235
236	- arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S
237	- arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc83xx/start.S
238	- arch/mips/cpu/start.S
239
240and so on. From there, three functions are called; the purpose and
241limitations of each of these functions are described below.
242
243lowlevel_init():
244	- purpose: essential init to permit execution to reach board_init_f()
245	- no global_data or BSS
246	- there is no stack (ARMv7 may have one but it will soon be removed)
247	- must not set up SDRAM or use console
248	- must only do the bare minimum to allow execution to continue to
249		board_init_f()
250	- this is almost never needed
251	- return normally from this function
252
253board_init_f():
254	- purpose: set up the machine ready for running board_init_r():
255		i.e. SDRAM and serial UART
256	- global_data is available
257	- stack is in SRAM
258	- BSS is not available, so you cannot use global/static variables,
259		only stack variables and global_data
260
261	Non-SPL-specific notes:
262	- dram_init() is called to set up DRAM. If already done in SPL this
263		can do nothing
264
265	SPL-specific notes:
266	- you can override the entire board_init_f() function with your own
267		version as needed.
268	- preloader_console_init() can be called here in extremis
269	- should set up SDRAM, and anything needed to make the UART work
270	- these is no need to clear BSS, it will be done by crt0.S
271	- must return normally from this function (don't call board_init_r()
272		directly)
273
274Here the BSS is cleared. For SPL, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined, then at
275this point the stack and global_data are relocated to below
276CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR. For non-SPL, U-Boot is relocated to run at the top of
277memory.
278
279board_init_r():
280	- purpose: main execution, common code
281	- global_data is available
282	- SDRAM is available
283	- BSS is available, all static/global variables can be used
284	- execution eventually continues to main_loop()
285
286	Non-SPL-specific notes:
287	- U-Boot is relocated to the top of memory and is now running from
288		there.
289
290	SPL-specific notes:
291	- stack is optionally in SDRAM, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined and
292		CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR points into SDRAM
293	- preloader_console_init() can be called here - typically this is
294		done by selecting CONFIG_SPL_BOARD_INIT and then supplying a
295		spl_board_init() function containing this call
296	- loads U-Boot or (in falcon mode) Linux
297

300Configuration Options:
301----------------------
302
303Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
304such information is kept in a configuration file
305"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
306
307Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
308"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
309
310
311Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
312kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
313build a config tool - later.
314
315
316The following options need to be configured:
317
318- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
319
320- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
321
322- Marvell Family Member
323		CONFIG_SYS_MVFS		- define it if you want to enable
324					  multiple fs option at one time
325					  for marvell soc family
326
327- 85xx CPU Options:
328		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
329
330		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
331		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
332		compliance, among other possible reasons.
333
334		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
335
336		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
337		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
338		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
339
340		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
341
342		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
343		tree nodes for the given platform.
344
345		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
346
347		Enables a workaround for erratum A004510.  If set,
348		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
349		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
350
351		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
352		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
353
354		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
355		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
356
357		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
358		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
359		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
360		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
361
362		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
363		this erratum.
364
365		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
366		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
367		required during NOR boot.
368
369		CONFIG_A008044_WORKAROUND
370		Enables a workaround for T1040/T1042 erratum A008044. It is only
371		required during NAND boot and valid for Rev 1.0 SoC revision
372

374
375		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
376		according to the A004510 workaround.
377
378		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
379		This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
380		connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
381
382		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
383		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
384		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
385
386		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
387		This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
388		connected to the DSP core.
389
390		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
391		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
392
393		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
394		Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
395		In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
396		clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
397
398		CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F
399		This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the
400		time of U-Boot entry and is required to be re-initialized.
401
402		CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP
403		Indicates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is
404		supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up.

563- Tegra SoC options:
564		CONFIG_TEGRA_SUPPORT_NON_SECURE
565
566		Support executing U-Boot in non-secure (NS) mode. Certain
567		impossible actions will be skipped if the CPU is in NS mode,
568		such as ARM architectural timer initialization.
569
570- Linux Kernel Interface:
571		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
572
573		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
574		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
575		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
576		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
577		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
578		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
579		Linux kernel.
580		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
581		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
582		default environment.
583
584		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
585
586		When transferring memsize parameter to Linux, some versions
587		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
588		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
589
590		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
591
592		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
593		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
594		concepts).
595
596		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
597		 * New libfdt-based support
598		 * Adds the "fdt" command
599		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
600
601		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
602		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
603
604		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
605		addresses
606
607		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
608
609		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
610		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
611
612		CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP
613
614		Other code has addition modification that it wants to make
615		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel.
616		This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting
617		the kernel.
618
619		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
620
621		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
622		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
623		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
624		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
625		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
626		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
627
628		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
629
630		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
631		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
632		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
633		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
634		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
635		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
636		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
637
638- vxWorks boot parameters:
639
640		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
641		environments variables: bootdev, bootfile, ipaddr, netmask,
642		serverip, gatewayip, hostname, othbootargs.
643		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
644
645		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
646		the defaults discussed just above.
647
648- Cache Configuration:
649		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
650		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
651		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
652
653- Cache Configuration for ARM:
654		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
655				      controller
656		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
657					controller register space
658
659- Serial Ports:
660		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
661
662		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
663
664		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
665
666		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
667
668		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
669
670		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
671		the clock speed of the UARTs.
672
673		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
674
675		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
676		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
677		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
678
679		CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
680
681		Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
682		Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
683
684- Console Baudrate:
685		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
686		Select one of the baudrates listed in
687		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
688
689- Autoboot Command:
690		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
691		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
692		define a command string that is automatically executed
693		when no character is read on the console interface
694		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
695
696		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
697		The value of these goes into the environment as
698		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
699		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
700		RAM and NFS.
701
702- Bootcount:
703		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
704		Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
705		cycle, see:
706		http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
707
708		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
709		If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
710		"bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
711		saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
712		"upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
713		0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
714		1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
715		So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
716		and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
717
718- Pre-Boot Commands:
719		CONFIG_PREBOOT
720
721		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
722		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
723		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
724		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
725		entering interactive mode.
726
727		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
728		automatically generated or modified. For an example
729		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
730		modified when the user holds down a certain
731		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
732		booting the systems
733
734- Serial Download Echo Mode:
735		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
736		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
737		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
738		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
739		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
740		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
741		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
742
743- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
744		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
745		Select one of the baudrates listed in
746		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
747
748- Removal of commands
749		If no commands are needed to boot, you can disable
750		CONFIG_CMDLINE to remove them. In this case, the command line
751		will not be available, and when U-Boot wants to execute the
752		boot command (on start-up) it will call board_run_command()
753		instead. This can reduce image size significantly for very
754		simple boot procedures.
755
756- Regular expression support:
757		CONFIG_REGEX
758		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
759		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
760		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
761		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
762
763- Device tree:
764		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
765		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
766		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
767		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
768		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
769		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
770
771		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
772		be done using one of the three options below:
773
774		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
775		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
776		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
777		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
778		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
779		the global data structure as gd->fdt_blob.
780
781		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
782		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
783		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
784		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
785
786			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
787
788		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
789		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
790		still use the individual files if you need something more
791		exotic.
792
793		CONFIG_OF_BOARD
794		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use the device tree
795		provided by the board at runtime instead of embedding one with
796		the image. Only boards defining board_fdt_blob_setup() support
797		this option (see include/fdtdec.h file).
798
799- Watchdog:
800		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
801		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
802		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
803		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx
804		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
805		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
806		available, then no further board specific code should
807		be needed to use it.
808
809		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
810		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
811		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
812		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
813
814		CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT
815		specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds.
816
817- U-Boot Version:
818		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
819		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
820		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
821		version as printed by the "version" command.
822		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
823		next reset.
824
825- Real-Time Clock:
826
827		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
828		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
829		following options:
830
831		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
832		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
833		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
834		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
835		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
836		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
837		CONFIG_RTC_DS1339	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
838		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
839		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
840		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
841		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
842		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
843					  RV3029 RTC.
844
845		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
846		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
847
848- GPIO Support:
849		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
850
851		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
852		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
853		pins supported by a particular chip.
854
855		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
856		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
857
858- I/O tracing:
859		When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
860		accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
861		to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
862		useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
863		the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
864		change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
865		add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
866		to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
867
868		Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
869		Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
870		still continue to operate.
871
872			iotrace is enabled
873			Start:  10000000	(buffer start address)
874			Size:   00010000	(buffer size)
875			Offset: 00000120	(current buffer offset)
876			Output: 10000120	(start + offset)
877			Count:  00000018	(number of trace records)
878			CRC32:  9526fb66	(CRC32 of all trace records)
879
880- Timestamp Support:
881
882		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
883		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
884		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
885		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
886
887- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
888		Zero or more of the following:
889		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
890		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
891		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
892				       bootloader.  Note 2TB partition limit; see
893				       disk/part_efi.c
894		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
895
896		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_IDE or
897		CONFIG_SCSI) you must configure support for at
898		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
899
900- IDE Reset method:
901		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
902		board configurations files but used nowhere!
903
904		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
905		be performed by calling the function
906			ide_set_reset(int reset)
907		which has to be defined in a board specific file
908
909- ATAPI Support:
910		CONFIG_ATAPI
911
912		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
913
914- LBA48 Support
915		CONFIG_LBA48
916
917		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
918		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
919		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
920		support disks up to 2.1TB.
921
922		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
923			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
924			Default is 32bit.
925
926- SCSI Support:
927		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
928		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
929		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
930		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
931		devices.
932
933		The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
934		SCSI devices found during the last scan.
935

937		CONFIG_E1000
938		Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips.
939
940		CONFIG_E1000_SPI

942		This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one
943		of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC.
944
945		CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC
946		Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for
947		example with the "sspi" command.

1009			CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA
1010			Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY.
1011			Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY.
1012			If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur
1013			wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or
1014			useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit
1015			control registers. This behavior won't affect the
1016			correctnessof 10/100 link speed update.
1017
1018		CONFIG_SMC911X
1019		Support for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x chips

1092- USB Support:
1093		At the moment only the UHCI host controller is
1094		supported (PIP405, MIP405); define
1095		CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it.
1096		define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard
1097		and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB
1098		storage devices.
1099		Note:
1100		Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
1101		(TEAC FD-05PUB).
1102
1103		CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
1104		txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
1105
1106		CONFIG_USB_DWC2_REG_ADDR the physical CPU address of the DWC2
1107		HW module registers.
1108
1109- USB Device:
1110		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1111		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1112		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1113		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1114		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1115		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1116		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1117		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1118		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1119		a Linux host by
1120		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1121		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1122		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1123		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1124
1125			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1126			Define this to build a UDC device
1127
1128			CONFIG_USB_TTY
1129			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1130			talk to the UDC device
1131
1132			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1133			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1134			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1135			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1136			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1137			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1138			speed.
1139
1140			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1141			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1142			be set to usbtty.
1143
1144		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1145		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1146		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1147		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1148		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1149		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1150
1151			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1152			Define this string as the name of your company for
1153			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1154
1155			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1156			Define this string as the name of your product
1157			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1158
1159			CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1160			Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1161			Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1162			to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1163			- CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1164
1165			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1166			Define this as the unique Product ID
1167			for your device
1168			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1169
1170- ULPI Layer Support:
1171		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1172		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1173		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1174		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1175		viewport is supported.
1176		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1177		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1178		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1179		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1180		the appropriate value in Hz.
1181
1182- MMC Support:
1183		The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1184		enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1185		accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1186		to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1187		enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1188		the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1189
1190		CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1191		Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1192
1193			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
1194			Define the base address of MMCIF registers
1195
1196			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK
1197			Define the clock frequency for MMCIF
1198
1199		CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_BOOT
1200		Enable some additional features of the eMMC boot partitions.
1201
1202		CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_RPMB
1203		Enable the commands for reading, writing and programming the
1204		key for the Replay Protection Memory Block partition in eMMC.
1205
1206- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support:
1207		CONFIG_USB_FUNCTION_DFU
1208		This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1209
1210		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1211		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1212
1213		CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1214		This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1215
1216		CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1217		This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1218		Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1219		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1220		one that would help mostly the developer.
1221
1222		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1223		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1224		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1225		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1226		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1227
1228		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1229		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1230		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1231		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1232		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1233		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1234
1235		DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1236		Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1237		host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1238		a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1239
1240		DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1241		Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1242		entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1243		sending again an USB request to the device.
1244
1245- Android Bootloader support:
1246		CONFIG_CMD_BOOT_ANDROID
1247		This enables the command "boot_android" which executes the
1248		Android Bootloader flow. Enabling CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT is
1249		recommended to support the Android Fastboot protocol as part
1250		of the bootloader.
1251
1252		CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOTLOADER
1253		This enables support for the Android bootloader flow. Android
1254		devices can boot in normal mode, recovery mode or bootloader
1255		mode. The normal mode is the most common boot mode, but
1256		recovery mode is often used to perform factory reset and OTA
1257		(over-the-air) updates in the legacy updater. Also it is
1258		possible for an Android system to request a reboot to the
1259		"bootloader", which often means reboot to fastboot but may also
1260		include a UI with a menu.
1261
1262		CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE
1263		This enables support for booting images which use the Android
1264		image format header.
1265
1266- USB Device Android Fastboot support:
1267		CONFIG_USB_FUNCTION_FASTBOOT
1268		This enables the USB part of the fastboot gadget
1269
1270		CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT
1271		This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android
1272		fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB
1273		protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control
1274		used on Android devices.
1275		See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information.
1276
1277		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR
1278		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1279		downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for
1280		downloaded images.
1281
1282		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE
1283		The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
1284		downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a
1285		platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot.
1286
1287		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH
1288		The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing
1289		the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define
1290		this to enable the "fastboot flash" command.
1291
1292		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV
1293		The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information
1294		regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to
1295		the eMMC device that fastboot should use to store the image.
1296
1297		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_GPT_NAME
1298		The fastboot "flash" command supports writing the downloaded
1299		image to the Protective MBR and the Primary GUID Partition
1300		Table. (Additionally, this downloaded image is post-processed
1301		to generate and write the Backup GUID Partition Table.)
1302		This occurs when the specified "partition name" on the
1303		"fastboot flash" command line matches this value.
1304		The default is "gpt" if undefined.
1305
1306		CONFIG_FASTBOOT_MBR_NAME
1307		The fastboot "flash" command supports writing the downloaded
1308		image to DOS MBR.
1309		This occurs when the "partition name" specified on the
1310		"fastboot flash" command line matches this value.
1311		If not defined the default value "mbr" is used.
1312
1313- Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1314		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND
1315		Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1316
1317		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1318		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1319		Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1320
1321- Keyboard Support:
1322		See Kconfig help for available keyboard drivers.
1323
1324		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1325
1326		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1327		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1328		defined in your board-specific files. This option is deprecated
1329		and is only used by novena. For new boards, use driver model
1330		instead.
1331
1332- Video support:
1333		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1334		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1335		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1336		support, and should also define these other macros:
1337
1338			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1339			CONFIG_VIDEO
1340			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1341			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1342			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1343			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1344			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1345
1346		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1347		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1348		boot.  See the documentation file doc/README.video for a
1349		description of this variable.
1350
1351- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1352
1353		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1354		display); also select one of the supported displays
1355		by defining one of these:
1356
1357		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1358
1359			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1360
1361		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1362
1363			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1364
1365		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1366
1367			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1368			Active, color, single scan.
1369
1370		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1371
1372			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1373			Active, color, single scan.
1374
1375		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1376
1377			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1378			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1379
1380		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1381
1382			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1383			Active, color, single scan.
1384
1385		CONFIG_HLD1045
1386
1387			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1388			Active, color, single scan.
1389
1390		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1391
1392			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1393			or
1394			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1395			or
1396			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1397
1398			320x240. Black & white.
1399
1400		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1401
1402		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (typically 4KB). If this is
1403		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1404		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1405		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1406		a per-section basis.
1407
1408
1409		CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION
1410
1411		Sometimes, for example if the display is mounted in portrait
1412		mode or even if it's mounted landscape but rotated by 180degree,
1413		we need to rotate our content of the display relative to the
1414		framebuffer, so that user can read the messages which are
1415		printed out.
1416		Once CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is defined, the lcd_console will be
1417		initialized with a given rotation from "vl_rot" out of
1418		"vidinfo_t" which is provided by the board specific code.
1419		The value for vl_rot is coded as following (matching to
1420		fbcon=rotate:<n> linux-kernel commandline):
1421		0 = no rotation respectively 0 degree
1422		1 = 90 degree rotation
1423		2 = 180 degree rotation
1424		3 = 270 degree rotation
1425
1426		If CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is not defined, the console will be
1427		initialized with 0degree rotation.
1428
1429		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1430
1431		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1432
1433		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1434
1435		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1436		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1437
1438- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1439
1440		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1441		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1442		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1443		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1444		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1445		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1446		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1447		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1448
1449		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1450
1451		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1452		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1453		(see doc/README.displaying-bmps).
1454		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1455		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1456		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1457		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1458		there is no need to set this option.
1459
1460		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1461
1462		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1463		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1464		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1465		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1466		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1467		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1468
1469		Example:
1470		setenv splashpos m,m
1471			=> image at center of screen
1472
1473		setenv splashpos 30,20
1474			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1475
1476		setenv splashpos -10,m
1477			=> vertically centered image
1478			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1479
1480- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1481
1482		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1483		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1484		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1485
1486- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1487
1488		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1489		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1490		bmp command.
1491
1492- Compression support:
1493		CONFIG_GZIP
1494
1495		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1496
1497		CONFIG_BZIP2
1498
1499		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1500		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1501		compressed images are supported.
1502
1503		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1504		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1505		be at least 4MB.
1506
1507- MII/PHY support:
1508		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1509
1510		The address of PHY on MII bus.
1511
1512		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1513
1514		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1515
1516		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1517
1518		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1519		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1520		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1521		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1522
1523		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1524
1525		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1526		command issued before MII status register can be read
1527
1528- IP address:
1529		CONFIG_IPADDR
1530
1531		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1532		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1533		determined through e.g. bootp.
1534		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
1535
1536- Server IP address:
1537		CONFIG_SERVERIP
1538
1539		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1540		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1541		(Environment variable "serverip")
1542
1543		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1544
1545		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1546		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1547
1548- Gateway IP address:
1549		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
1550
1551		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1552		default router where packets to other networks are
1553		sent to.
1554		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
1555
1556- Subnet mask:
1557		CONFIG_NETMASK
1558
1559		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
1560		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
1561		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
1562		forwarded through a router.
1563		(Environment variable "netmask")
1564
1565- Multicast TFTP Mode:
1566		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
1567
1568		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1569		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
1570		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
1571		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1572		multicast group.
1573
1574- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1575		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1576
1577		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1578		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1579		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1580		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1581		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1582		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1583		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1584		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
1585		following delays are inserted then:
1586
1587		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
1588		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
1589		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
1590		4th and following
1591		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
1592
1593		CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE
1594
1595		BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The
1596		server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and
1597		U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of
1598		an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses
1599		aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP
1600		ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to
1601		respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it
1602		takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that
1603		time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order
1604		to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these
1605		retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of
1606		IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this
1607		cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding
1608		requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers
1609		from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency.
1610
1611- DHCP Advanced Options:
1612		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1613		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1614
1615		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
1616		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
1617		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
1618		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
1619		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
1620		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
1621		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1622		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
1623		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
1624		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
1625		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
1626		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
1627		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1628
1629		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1630		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1631
1632		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1633		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1634		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
1635		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1636		is not available.
1637
1638		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1639		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1640		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1641		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1642		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
1643		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
1644		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1645		is defined.
1646
1647		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1648		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1649		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
1650		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
1651		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
1652		option 12 to the DHCP server.
1653
1654		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1655
1656		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1657		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1658		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1659		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1660		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1661		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1662		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1663		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1664		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1665		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1666		this delay.
1667
1668 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1669		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1670		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1671		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1672		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1673
1674		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
1675
1676 - MAC address from environment variables
1677
1678		FDT_SEQ_MACADDR_FROM_ENV
1679
1680		Fix-up device tree with MAC addresses fetched sequentially from
1681		environment variables. This config work on assumption that
1682		non-usable ethernet node of device-tree are either not present
1683		or their status has been marked as "disabled".
1684
1685 - CDP Options:
1686		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
1687
1688		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
1689
1690		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
1691
1692		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
1693		of the device.
1694
1695		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1696
1697		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1698		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
1699		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
1700
1701		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
1702
1703		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
1704		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
1705
1706		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
1707
1708		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
1709
1710		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
1711
1712		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
1713
1714		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
1715
1716		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
1717
1718		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
1719
1720		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
1721		device in .1 of milliwatts.
1722
1723		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
1724
1725		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
1726
1727- Status LED:	CONFIG_LED_STATUS
1728
1729		Several configurations allow to display the current
1730		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
1731		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
1732		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
1733		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
1734		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
1735		kernel). Defining CONFIG_LED_STATUS enables this
1736		feature in U-Boot.
1737
1738		Additional options:
1739
1740		CONFIG_LED_STATUS_GPIO
1741		The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
1742		In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
1743		status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_LED_STATUS_GPIO
1744		to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
1745
1746		CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
1747		Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
1748		case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
1749		GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
1750		In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
1751		with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
1752
1753- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
1754
1755		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
1756		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
1757		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
1758		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
1759		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
1760		interface.

1897		Hold the number of i2c buses you want to use.
1898
1899		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
1900		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
1901		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
1902		omit this define.
1903
1904		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
1905		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
1906		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
1907		define.
1908
1909		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
1910		hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if
1911		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
1912		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
1913		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
1914
1915		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
1916					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \

1918					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
1919					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
1920					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
1921					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
1922					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \
1923					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
1924					}
1925
1926		which defines
1927			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
1928			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
1929			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2

1935			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
1936
1937		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
1938
1939- Legacy I2C Support:
1940		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
1941		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
1942		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
1943
1944		I2C_INIT
1945
1946		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
1947		controller or configure ports.
1948
1949		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
1950
1951		I2C_ACTIVE
1952
1953		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
1954		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
1955		define can be null.
1956
1957		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
1958
1959		I2C_TRISTATE
1960
1961		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
1962		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
1963		define can be null.
1964
1965		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
1966
1967		I2C_READ
1968
1969		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
1970		false if it is low.
1971
1972		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
1973
1974		I2C_SDA(bit)
1975
1976		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
1977		is false, it clears it (low).
1978
1979		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
1980			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
1981			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
1982
1983		I2C_SCL(bit)
1984
1985		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
1986		is false, it clears it (low).
1987
1988		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
1989			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
1990			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
1991
1992		I2C_DELAY
1993
1994		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
1995		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
1996		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
1997		like:
1998
1999		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2000
2001		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2002
2003		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2004		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2005		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2006		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2007
2008		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2009		the generic GPIO functions.
2010
2011		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2012
2013		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2014		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2015		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2016		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2017		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2018		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2019		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2020		is run early in the boot sequence.
2021
2022		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2023
2024		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2025		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2026		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2027		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2028
2029		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2030
2031		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2032		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2033		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2034		a 1D array of device addresses
2035
2036		e.g.
2037			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2038			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2039
2040		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2041
2042			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2043			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2044
2045		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2046
2047		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2048
2049		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2050		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2051
2052		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2053
2054		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2055		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2056
2057		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2058
2059		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2060		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2061		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2062		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2063		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2064		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2065		the other.
2066
2067- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2068
2069		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2070		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2071		D/As on the SACSng board)
2072
2073		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2074
2075		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2076		only SH7757 is supported.
2077
2078		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2079
2080		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2081		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2082		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2083		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2084		defined, the board configuration must define several
2085		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2086		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2087
2088		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2089
2090		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2091		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2092		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2093		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2094		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2095
2096		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2097
2098		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2099		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2100
2101		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT
2102		Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed.
2103		default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100)     /* 10 ms */
2104
2105- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2106
2107		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2108
2109		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2110
2111		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2112		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2113
2114		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2115
2116		Enables support for FPGA family.
2117		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2118
2119		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2120
2121		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2122
2123		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2124
2125		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2126
2127		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2128
2129		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2130		status by the configuration function. This option
2131		will require a board or device specific function to
2132		be written.
2133
2134		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2135
2136		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2137		configuration driver.
2138
2139		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2140		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2141
2142		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2143
2144		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2145		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2146		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2147		indicated a CRC error).
2148
2149		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2150
2151		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to de-assert
2152		after PROB_B has been de-asserted during a Virtex II
2153		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2154		ms.
2155
2156		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2157
2158		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to de-assert during
2159		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2160
2161		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2162
2163		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2164		200 ms.
2165
2166- Configuration Management:
2167		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET
2168
2169		Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary
2170		with a special header) as build targets. By defining
2171		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this
2172		special image will be automatically built upon calling
2173		make / buildman.
2174
2175		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2176
2177		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2178		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2179
2180- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2181
2182		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2183		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2184		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2185		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2186		protects these variables from casual modification by
2187		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2188		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2189		change this behaviour:
2190
2191		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2192		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2193		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2194		these parameters.
2195
2196		Alternatively, if you define _both_ an ethaddr in the
2197		default env _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2198		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2199		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2200		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2201		read-only.]
2202
2203		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2204		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2205		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2206		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2207
2208- Protected RAM:
2209		CONFIG_PRAM
2210
2211		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2212		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2213		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2214		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2215		this default value by defining an environment
2216		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2217		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2218		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2219		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2220		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2221		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2222		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2223
2224			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2225			saveenv
2226
2227		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2228		either, which results in a memory region that will
2229		not be affected by reboots.
2230
2231		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2232		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2233		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2234		following board configurations are known to be
2235		"pRAM-clean":
2236
2237			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx,
2238			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2239			FLAGADM
2240
2241- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2242		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2243		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2244		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2245		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2246		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2247		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2248
2249- Error Recovery:
2250		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2251
2252		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2253		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2254		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2255		system where you want the system to reboot
2256		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2257		useful during development since you can try to debug
2258		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2259
2260		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2261
2262		This variable defines the number of retries for
2263		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2264		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2265		default value of 5 is used.
2266
2267		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2268
2269		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2270
2271		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2272
2273		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2274		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2275		try longer timeout such as
2276		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2277
2278- Command Interpreter:
2279		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2280
2281		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2282
2283		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2284
2285		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2286		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2287		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2288
2289	Note:
2290
2291		In the current implementation, the local variables
2292		space and global environment variables space are
2293		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2294		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2295		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2296		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2297		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2298
2299		Global environment variables are those you use
2300		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2301		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2302		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2303
2304		To store commands and special characters in a
2305		variable, please use double quotation marks
2306		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2307		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2308		symbols.
2309
2310- Command Line Editing and History:
2311		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2312
2313		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2314		command line input operations
2315
2316- Command Line PS1/PS2 support:
2317		CONFIG_CMDLINE_PS_SUPPORT
2318
2319		Enable support for changing the command prompt string
2320		at run-time. Only static string is supported so far.
2321		The string is obtained from environment variables PS1
2322		and PS2.
2323
2324- Default Environment:
2325		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2326
2327		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2328		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2329		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2330
2331		For example, place something like this in your
2332		board's config file:
2333
2334		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2335			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2336			"myvar2=value2\0"
2337
2338		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2339		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2340		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2341		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2342		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2343		You better know what you are doing here.
2344
2345		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2346		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2347		the environment like the "source" command or the
2348		boot command first.
2349
2350		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2351
2352		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2353		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2354		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2355
2356		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2357
2358		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2359		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2360		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2361		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2362		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2363
2364		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2365
2366		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2367		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2368		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2369
2370		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2371
2372		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2373		initialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2374		that so that the environment is not available until
2375		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2376		this is instead controlled by the value of
2377		/config/load-environment.
2378
2379- Serial Flash support
2380		Usage requires an initial 'sf probe' to define the serial
2381		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2382		commands.
2383
2384		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2385		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2386		flash is present on the system.
2387
2388		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2389		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2390		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2391		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2392
2393		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2394
2395		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2396		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2397		of the chip must also be defined in the
2398		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2399
2400		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2401		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2402
2403		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2404		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2405
2406- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2407		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2408
2409		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2410		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2411		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2412		number generator is used.
2413
2414		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2415		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
2416		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2417
2418		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2419		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2420		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2421		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2422		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2423		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2424		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2425
2426- bootcount support:
2427		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
2428
2429		This enables the bootcounter support, see:
2430		http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
2431
2432		CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
2433		enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
2434		CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
2435		enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
2436		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
2437		enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
2438		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
2439		enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
2440			CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
2441			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
2442						    the bootcounter.
2443			CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
2444		CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_EXT
2445		enable support for the bootcounter in EXT filesystem
2446			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = RAM address used for read
2447                                                    and write.
2448			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_EXT_INTERFACE = interface
2449			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_EXT_DEVPART = device and part
2450			CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_EXT_NAME = filename
2451
2452- Show boot progress:
2453		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2454
2455		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2456		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2457		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2458		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2459		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2460		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2461
2462
2463Legacy uImage format:
2464
2465  Arg	Where			When
2466    1	common/cmd_bootm.c	before attempting to boot an image

2615
2616- legacy image format:
2617		CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
2618		enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
2619
2620		Default:
2621		enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
2622
2623		CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
2624		disable the legacy image format
2625
2626		This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
2627		enabled per default for backward compatibility.
2628
2629- Standalone program support:
2630		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
2631
2632		This option defines a board specific value for the
2633		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
2634		overwriting the architecture dependent default
2635		settings.
2636
2637- Frame Buffer Address:
2638		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
2639
2640		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
2641		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
2642		when using a graphics controller has separate video
2643		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
2644		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
2645		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
2646		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
2647		configured panel size.
2648
2649		Please see board_init_f function.
2650
2651- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
2652		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
2653		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
2654		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
2655
2656		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
2657		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
2658
2659- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
2660		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
2661
2662		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
2663		Needed for mtdparts command support.
2664
2665		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
2666
2667		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
2668		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
2669
2670- UBI support
2671		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
2672
2673		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
2674		warnings and errors enabled.
2675
2676
2677		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
2678		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
2679		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
2680		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
2681		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
2682		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
2683
2684		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
2685		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
2686		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
2687		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
2688		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
2689
2690		default: 4096
2691
2692		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
2693		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
2694		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
2695		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
2696		flash), this value is ignored.
2697
2698		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
2699		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
2700		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
2701		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
2702		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
2703		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
2704
2705		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
2706		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
2707		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
2708		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
2709		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
2710		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
2711		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
2712		partition.
2713
2714		default: 20
2715
2716		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
2717		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
2718		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
2719		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
2720		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
2721		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
2722		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
2723		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
2724		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
2725		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
2726		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
2727		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
2728
2729		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
2730		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
2731		without a fastmap.
2732		default: 0
2733
2734		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FM_DEBUG
2735		Enable UBI fastmap debug
2736		default: 0
2737
2738- UBIFS support
2739		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
2740
2741		Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing.  This leaves
2742		warnings and errors enabled.
2743
2744- SPL framework
2745		CONFIG_SPL
2746		Enable building of SPL globally.
2747
2748		CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT
2749		LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
2750
2751		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
2752		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
2753		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
2754		used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
2755		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2756		must not be both defined at the same time.
2757
2758		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
2759		Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and
2760		linker lists sections), BSS excluded.
2761		When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does
2762		not exceed it.
2763
2764		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
2765		TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary.
2766
2767		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE
2768		Address to relocate to.  If unspecified, this is equal to
2769		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done).
2770
2771		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR
2772		Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary.
2773
2774		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2775		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS.
2776		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used
2777		by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
2778		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2779		must not be both defined at the same time.
2780
2781		CONFIG_SPL_STACK
2782		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use
2783
2784		CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE
2785		When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has
2786		loaded does not have a signature.
2787		Defining this is useful when code which loads images
2788		in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors
2789		will be caught.
2790		An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will
2791		consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad,
2792		and thus should be skipped silently.
2793
2794		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
2795		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
2796		relocation.  If unspecified, this is equal to
2797		CONFIG_SPL_STACK.
2798
2799		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START
2800		Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL.
2801		When this option is set the full malloc is used in SPL and
2802		it is set up by spl_init() and before that, the simple malloc()
2803		can be used if CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F is defined.
2804
2805		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE
2806		The size of the malloc pool used in SPL.
2807
2808		CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK
2809		Enable the SPL framework under common/.  This framework
2810		supports MMC, NAND and YMODEM loading of U-Boot and NAND
2811		NAND loading of the Linux Kernel.
2812
2813		CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT
2814		Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL.
2815		See also: doc/README.falcon
2816
2817		CONFIG_SPL_DISPLAY_PRINT
2818		For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information
2819		about the running system.
2820
2821		CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL
2822		Arch init code should be built for a very small image
2823
2824		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION
2825		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being
2826		used in raw mode
2827
2828		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR
2829		Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being
2830		used in raw mode (for Falcon mode)
2831
2832		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR,
2833		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS
2834		Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument
2835		parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode
2836		(for falcon mode)
2837
2838		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION
2839		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being
2840		used in fs mode
2841
2842		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_PAYLOAD_NAME
2843		Filename to read to load U-Boot when reading from filesystem
2844
2845		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_KERNEL_NAME
2846		Filename to read to load kernel uImage when reading
2847		from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
2848
2849		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_ARGS_NAME
2850		Filename to read to load kernel argument parameters
2851		when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
2852
2853		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
2854		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
2855		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
2856		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
2857		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
2858
2859		CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE
2860		Avoid SPL relocation
2861
2862		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE
2863		Include nand_base.c in the SPL.  Requires
2864		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS.
2865
2866		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS
2867		SPL uses normal NAND drivers, not minimal drivers.
2868
2869		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC
2870		Include standard software ECC in the SPL
2871
2872		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE
2873		Support for NAND boot using simple NAND drivers that
2874		expose the cmd_ctrl() interface.
2875
2876		CONFIG_SPL_UBI
2877		Support for a lightweight UBI (fastmap) scanner and
2878		loader
2879
2880		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY
2881		Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only
2882		if you need to save space.
2883
2884		CONFIG_SPL_COMMON_INIT_DDR
2885		Set for common ddr init with serial presence detect in
2886		SPL binary.
2887
2888		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT,
2889		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE,
2890		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,
2891		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
2892		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
2893		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
2894		to read U-Boot
2895
2896		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT
2897		Add support NAND boot
2898
2899		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
2900		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from
2901
2902		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST
2903		Location in memory to load U-Boot to
2904
2905		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE
2906		Size of image to load
2907
2908		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
2909		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
2910
2911		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
2912		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
2913		data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms.
2914
2915		CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE
2916		Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary
2917
2918		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
2919		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
2920		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
2921		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
2922		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
2923		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
2924
2925		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
2926		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
2927		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
2928		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
2929
2930		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
2931		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
2932		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
2933		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
2934		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
2935
2936- TPL framework
2937		CONFIG_TPL
2938		Enable building of TPL globally.
2939
2940		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
2941		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
2942		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
2943		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
2944		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
2945		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
2946
2947- Interrupt support (PPC):
2948
2949		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
2950		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
2951		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
2952		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
2953		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
2954		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
2955		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
2956		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
2957		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
2958		general timer_interrupt().
2959
2960
2961Board initialization settings:
2962------------------------------
2963
2964During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
2965to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
2966before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
2967following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
2968architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
2969typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
2970
2971- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
2972- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
2973- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
2974- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
2975
2976Configuration Settings:
2977-----------------------
2978
2979- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
2980		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
2981
2982- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
2983		undefine this when you're short of memory.
2984
2985- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
2986		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
2987
2988- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
2989		prompt for user input.
2990
2991- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
2992
2993- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
2994
2995- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
2996
2997- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
2998		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
2999		booted
3000
3001- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3002		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3003
3004- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3005		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3006		simple memory test.
3007
3008- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3009		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3010
3011- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3012		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3013		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3014
3015- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE
3016		Only implemented for ARMv8 for now.
3017		If defined, the size of CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE memory
3018		is substracted from total RAM and won't be reported to OS.
3019		This memory can be used as secure memory. A variable
3020		gd->arch.secure_ram is used to track the location. In systems
3021		the RAM base is not zero, or RAM is divided into banks,
3022		this variable needs to be recalcuated to get the address.
3023
3024- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE:
3025		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3026		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3027		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3028		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3029		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3030		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3031		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3032		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3033		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3034
3035		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3036		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3037		be touched.
3038
3039		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3040		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3041		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3042		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3043		problems.
3044
3045- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3046		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3047
3048- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3049		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3050
3051- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3052		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3053
3054- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3055		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3056		make config files to be same as the text base address
3057		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3058		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3059
3060- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3061		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3062		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3063		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3064		flash sector.
3065
3066- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3067		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3068
3069- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3070		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3071		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3072		will become available before relocation. The address is just
3073		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3074		space.
3075
3076		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3077		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3078		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3079		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when
3080		U-Boot relocates itself.
3081
3082- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE
3083		Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those
3084		boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is
3085		enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START).
3086
3087- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY:
3088		Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be
3089		typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped
3090		uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would
3091		otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For
3092		some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the
3093		cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed
3094		are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding
3095		cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e.
3096		if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the
3097		size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of
3098		one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has
3099		written to another region in the same cache-line. This can
3100		happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for
3101		buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g.
3102		16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes).
3103
3104		Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present.
3105
3106- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3107		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3108		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3109		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3110		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3111
3112- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3113		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3114		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3115		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3116		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3117		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3118		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3119		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3120		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3121		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3122		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3123
3124- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3125		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3126		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3127		is enabled.
3128
3129- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3130		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3131		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3132
3133- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3134		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3135		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3136
3137- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3138		Max number of Flash memory banks
3139
3140- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3141		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3142
3143- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3144		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3145
3146- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3147		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3148
3149- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3150		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3151
3152- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3153		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3154
3155- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3156		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3157		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3158
3159- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3160
3161		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3162		without this option such a download has to be
3163		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3164		copy from RAM to flash.
3165
3166		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3167		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3168		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3169		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3170		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3171
3172- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3173		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3174		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3175
3176- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3177		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3178		in the drivers directory
3179
3180- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3181		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3182		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3183		to the MTD layer.
3184
3185- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3186		Use buffered writes to flash.
3187
3188- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3189		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3190		write commands.
3191
3192- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3193		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3194		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3195		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3196		optionally available.
3197
3198- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3199		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3200		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3201		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3202
3203- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3204		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3205		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3206		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3207		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3208		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3209		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3210		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3211
3212- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3213		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3214		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3215		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3216		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3217		on high Ethernet traffic.
3218		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3219
3220- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3221
3222	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3223	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3224	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3225	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3226	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3227
3228- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3229- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3230	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3231	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3232	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3233	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3234
3235	The format of the list is:
3236		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3237		access_attribute = [a|r|o|c]
3238		attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute]
3239		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3240		list = entry[,list]
3241
3242	The type attributes are:
3243		s - String (default)
3244		d - Decimal
3245		x - Hexadecimal
3246		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3247		i - IP address
3248		m - MAC address
3249
3250	The access attributes are:
3251		a - Any (default)
3252		r - Read-only
3253		o - Write-once
3254		c - Change-default
3255
3256	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3257		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3258		environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3259
3260	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3261		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3262		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3263		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
3264		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3265		".flags" variable.
3266
3267	If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
3268	regular expression. This allows multiple variables to define the same
3269	flags without explicitly listing them for each variable.
3270
3271- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3272	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3273	access flags.
3274
3275- CONFIG_USE_STDINT
3276	If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this
3277	option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when
3278	building U-Boot to enable this.
3279
3280The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3281of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3282following configurations:
3283
3284- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3285
3286	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3287	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3288
3289BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3290in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the
3291console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
3292U-Boot will hang.
3293
3294Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3295environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3296keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3297to save the current settings.
3298
3299BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3300"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
3301environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3302but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
3303
3304- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
3305
3306	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
3307	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
3308	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3309
3310Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
3311has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
3312created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use env_get_f()
3313until then to read environment variables.
3314
3315The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
3316is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
3317with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
3318necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
3319"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
3320have any device yet where we could complain.]
3321
3322Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
3323the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
3324use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
3325
3326- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
3327		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
3328
3329		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
3330		      also needs to be defined.
3331
3332- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
3333		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
3334
3335- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
3336		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
3337		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
3338		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
3339		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
3340		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
3341
3342- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
3343		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
3344		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
3345		to do this.
3346
3347- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
3348		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
3349		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
3350		present.
3351
3352- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
3353		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
3354		build system checks that the actual size does not
3355		exceed it.
3356
3357Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
3358---------------------------------------------------
3359
3360- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
3361		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
3362
3363- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
3364		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
3365		PowerPC SOCs.
3366
3367- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
3368		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
3369		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
3370
3371- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
3372		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
3373		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
3374		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
3375		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
3376		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
3377		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
3378
3379		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
3380			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
3381
3382- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
3383		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
3384		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
3385		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3386		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3387
3388- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3389		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
3390		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3391		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3392
3393- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
3394		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
3395		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
3396
3397- Floppy Disk Support:
3398		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
3399
3400		the default drive number (default value 0)
3401
3402		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
3403
3404		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
3405		(default value 1)
3406
3407		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
3408
3409		defines the offset of register from address. It
3410		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
3411		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
3412
3413		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
3414		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
3415		default value.
3416
3417		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
3418		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
3419		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
3420		source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent
3421		initializations.
3422
3423- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
3424		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
3425		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
3426		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
3427		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
3428		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
3429		is required.
3430
3431- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
3432		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
3433		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx systems only]
3434
3435- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
3436
3437		Start address of memory area that can be used for
3438		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
3439		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
3440		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
3441		will become available only after programming the
3442		memory controller and running certain initialization
3443		sequences.
3444
3445		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
3446		- MPC8xx: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
3447
3448- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
3449
3450		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
3451		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
3452		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
3453		data is located at the end of the available space
3454		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
3455		GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
3456		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
3457		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
3458
3459	Note:
3460		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
3461		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
3462		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
3463		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
3464		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.
3465
3466- CONFIG_SYS_SCCR:	System Clock and reset Control Register (15-27)

3486		Only scan through and get the devices on the buses.
3487		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
3488		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
3489		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
3490		by coreboot or similar.
3491
3492- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
3493		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
3494
3495- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:

3516- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
3517		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
3518		a 16 bit bus.
3519		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.

3522		- drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c
3523
3524- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG
3525		Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined
3526		a default value will be used.
3527
3528- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM
3529		Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common
3530		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
3531
3532  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
3533		I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
3534
3535- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
3536		If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
3537		one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
3538		to something your driver can deal with.
3539
3540- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
3541		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
3542		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
3543		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
3544		header files or board specific files.

3557		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
3558
3559- CONFIG_RMII
3560		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
3561		Note that this is a global option, we can't
3562		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
3563
3564- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
3565		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
3566		The syntax is:
3567
3568		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
3569
3570		Where address/count indicate a memory area
3571		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
3572		area should have.
3573
3574- CONFIG_LOOPW
3575		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
3576		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY).
3577
3578- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
3579		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
3580		"md/mw" commands.
3581		Examples:
3582
3583		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
3584		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
3585
3586		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
3587		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
3588
3589		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
3590		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY).
3591
3592- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
3593		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
3594		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
3595		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
3596		relocate itself into RAM.
3597
3598		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
3599		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
3600		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
3601		these initializations itself.
3602
3603- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT_ONLY
3604		[ARM926EJ-S only] This allows just the call to lowlevel_init()
3605		to be skipped. The normal CP15 init (such as enabling the
3606		instruction cache) is still performed.
3607
3608- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
3609		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
3610		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
3611		compiling a NAND SPL.
3612
3613- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
3614		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
3615		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
3616		It is loaded by the SPL.
3617
3618- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
3619		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
3620		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
3621		previous 4k of the .text section.
3622
3623- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
3624		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
3625		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
3626		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
3627		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
3628		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
3629		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
3630		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
3631
3632- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
3633		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
3634		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
3635
3636- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
3637		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
3638
3639- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
3640		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
3641		driver that uses this:
3642		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
3643
3644Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
3645-----------------------------------
3646
3647The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
3648loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
3649This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
3650are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
3651within that device.
3652
3653- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
3654	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
3655	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
3656	is also specified.
3657
3658- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
3659	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
3660	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
3661	is also specified.
3662
3663- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
3664	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
3665	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
3666	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
3667	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
3668
3669- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
3670	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
3671	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
3672	virtual address in NOR flash.
3673
3674- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
3675	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
3676	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
3677
3678- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
3679	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
3680	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
3681
3682- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
3683	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
3684	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
3685	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
3686	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
3687	master's memory space.
3688
3689Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
3690---------------------------------------------------------
3691The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
3692"firmware".
3693This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
3694are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
3695within that device.
3696
3697- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
3698	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
3699
3700Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support:
3701-------------------------------------------
3702The Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support supports the loading of
3703"Debug Server firmware" and triggering SP boot-rom.
3704This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting.
3705
3706- CONFIG_SYS_MC_RSV_MEM_ALIGN
3707	Define alignment of reserved memory MC requires
3708
3709Reproducible builds
3710-------------------
3711
3712In order to achieve reproducible builds, timestamps used in the U-Boot build
3713process have to be set to a fixed value.
3714
3715This is done using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable.
3716SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is to be set on the build host's shell, not as a configuration
3717option for U-Boot or an environment variable in U-Boot.
3718
3719SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH should be set to a number of seconds since the epoch, in UTC.
3720
3721Building the Software:
3722======================
3723
3724Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
3725and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
3726all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
3727(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
3728recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
3729which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
3730
3731If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
3732have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
3733you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
3734Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
3735necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
3736
3737	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
3738	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
3739
3740Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
3741      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
3742      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
3743      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
3744
3745       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
3746
3747      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
3748      be executed on computers running Windows.
3749
3750U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
3751sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
3752is done by typing:
3753
3754	make NAME_defconfig
3755
3756where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
3757rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
3758
3759Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
3760      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
3761      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
3762      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
3763      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
3764
3765      make TQM823L_defconfig
3766	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
3767
3768      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
3769	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
3770
3771      etc.
3772
3773
3774Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
3775images ready for download to / installation on your system:
3776
3777- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
3778- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
3779- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
3780
3781By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
3782in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
3783this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
3784
37851. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
3786
3787	make O=/tmp/build distclean
3788	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
3789	make O=/tmp/build all
3790
37912. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location:
3792
3793	export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build
3794	make distclean
3795	make NAME_defconfig
3796	make all
3797
3798Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment
3799variable.
3800
3801
3802Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
3803for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
3804native "make".
3805
3806
3807If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
3808to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
3809steps:
3810
38111.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
3812    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
3813    the "Makefile" and a "<board>.c".
38142.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
3815    your board.
38163.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
3817    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
38184.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
38195.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
3820    to be installed on your target system.
38216.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
3822    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
3823
3824
3825Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
3826==============================================================
3827
3828If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
3829or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
3830provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
3831the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
3832official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
3833
3834But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
3835cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
3836the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
3837just run the buildman script (tools/buildman/buildman), which will
3838configure and build U-Boot for ALL supported system. Be warned, this
3839will take a while. Please see the buildman README, or run 'buildman -H'
3840for documentation.

3897
3898TODO.
3899
3900For now: just type "help <command>".
3901
3902
3903Environment Variables:
3904======================
3905
3906U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
3907can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
3908
3909Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
3910"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
3911without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
3912environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
3913working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
3914environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
3915
3916Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
3917
3918List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
3919
3920  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
3921
3922  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
3923
3924  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
3925
3926  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
3927
3928  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
3929
3930  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
3931		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
3932		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
3933		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
3934		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
3935		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
3936		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
3937		  bootm_mapsize.
3938
3939  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
3940		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
3941		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
3942		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
3943		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
3944		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
3945		  used otherwise.
3946
3947  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
3948		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
3949		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
3950		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
3951		  environment variable.
3952
3953  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
3954		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
3955		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
3956
3957  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
3958		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
3959		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
3960		  load any image using TFTP
3961
3962  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
3963		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
3964		  be automatically started (by internally calling
3965		  "bootm")
3966
3967		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
3968		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
3969		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
3970		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
3971		  data.
3972
3973  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
3974		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
3975		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
3976		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
3977		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
3978		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
3979		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
3980		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
3981		  access it during the boot procedure.
3982
3983		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
3984		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
3985		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
3986		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
3987		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
3988		  must be accessible by the kernel.
3989
3990  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
3991		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
3992		  defined.
3993
3994  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
3995		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
3996		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
3997		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
3998		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
3999
4000  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
4001		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4002		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4003		  is usually what you want since it allows for
4004		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4005		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
4006		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
4007		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4008		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4009		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4010		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
4011
4012		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
4013		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4014		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4015		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
4016		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4017		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4018
4019		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4020
4021		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
4022		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
4023		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
4024		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
4025		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
4026		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
4027		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
4028
4029  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4030
4031  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
4032		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
4033
4034  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4035
4036  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4037
4038  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
4039
4040  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
4041
4042  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
4043
4044  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4045
4046  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4047		  For example you can do the following
4048
4049		  => setenv ethact FEC
4050		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
4051		  => setenv ethact SCC
4052		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4053
4054  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4055		  available network interfaces.
4056		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4057
4058  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4059		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
4060		  When set to "once" the network operation will
4061		  fail when all the available network interfaces
4062		  are tried once without success.
4063		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4064		  themselves.
4065
4066  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
4067
4068  silent_linux  - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by
4069		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
4070		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
4071		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
4072		  is silent.
4073
4074  tftpsrcp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
4075		  UDP source port.
4076
4077  tftpdstp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
4078		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
4079
4080  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4081		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4082
4083  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4084		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4085		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4086		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4087		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4088		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4089		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
4090
4091  tftptimeoutcountmax	- maximum count of TFTP timeouts (no
4092		  unit, minimum value = 0). Defines how many timeouts
4093		  can happen during a single file transfer before that
4094		  transfer is aborted. The default is 10, and 0 means
4095		  'no timeouts allowed'. Increasing this value may help
4096		  downloads succeed with high packet loss rates, or with
4097		  unreliable TFTP servers or client hardware.
4098
4099  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
4100		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
4101		  VLAN tagged frames.
4102
4103  bootpretryperiod	- Period during which BOOTP/DHCP sends retries.
4104		  Unsigned value, in milliseconds. If not set, the period will
4105		  be either the default (28000), or a value based on
4106		  CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT, if defined. This value has
4107		  precedence over the valu based on CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT.
4108
4109The following image location variables contain the location of images
4110used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4111not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4112variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4113server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4114loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4115flash or offset in NAND flash.
4116
4117*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4118boards currently use other variables for these purposes, and some
4119boards use these variables for other purposes.
4120
4121Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
4122-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
4123u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
4124Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
4125device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
4126ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
4127
4128The following environment variables may be used and automatically
4129updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
4130depending the information provided by your boot server:
4131
4132  bootfile	- see above
4133  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
4134  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
4135  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
4136  hostname	- Target hostname
4137  ipaddr	- see above
4138  netmask	- Subnet Mask
4139  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
4140  serverip	- see above
4141
4142
4143There are two special Environment Variables:
4144
4145  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
4146		  as type string and/or serial number
4147  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
4148
4149These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4150the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4151once they have been set once.
4152
4153
4154Further special Environment Variables:
4155
4156  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4157		  with the "version" command. This variable is
4158		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
4159
4160
4161Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
4162only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
4163
4164
4165Callback functions for environment variables:
4166---------------------------------------------
4167
4168For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
4169when their values are changed.  This functionality allows functions to
4170be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
4171deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
4172effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
4173
4174The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
4175U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
4176
4177These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
4178static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
4179in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
4180associations.  The list must be in the following format:
4181
4182	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
4183	list = entry[,list]
4184
4185If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
4186Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
4187
4188Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
4189with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
4190override any association in the static list. You can define
4191CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
4192".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4193
4194If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
4195regular expression. This allows multiple variables to be connected to
4196the same callback without explicitly listing them all out.
4197
4198
4199Command Line Parsing:
4200=====================
4201
4202There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
4203the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
4204
4205Old, simple command line parser:
4206--------------------------------
4207
4208- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
4209- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
4210- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
4211- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
4212  for example:
4213	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
4214- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
4215	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
4216
4217Hush shell:
4218-----------
4219
4220- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4221  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4222  until...do...done, ...
4223- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4224  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4225  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4226  command
4227
4228General rules:
4229--------------
4230
4231(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4232    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4233    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4234    executed anyway.
4235
4236(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
4237    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
4238    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4239    variables are not executed.
4240
4241Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4242=======================================
4243
4244Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
4245such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
4246"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
4247
4248Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4249MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4250"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
4251
4252If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4253in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4254ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4255variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
4256
4257o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4258  environment, the SROM's address is used.
4259
4260o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4261  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4262  used.
4263
4264o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4265  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
4266
4267o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4268  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4269  warning is printed.
4270
4271o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4272  is raised. If CONFIG_NET_RANDOM_ETHADDR is defined, then in this case
4273  a random, locally-assigned MAC is used.
4274
4275If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
4276will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
4277may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4278The naming convention is as follows:
4279"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
4280
4281Image Formats:
4282==============
4283
4284U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
4285images in two formats:
4286
4287New uImage format (FIT)
4288-----------------------
4289
4290Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
4291to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
4292components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
4293SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
4294
4295
4296Old uImage format
4297-----------------
4298
4299Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
4300preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
4301details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
4302
4303* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
4304  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
4305  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
4306  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
4307  INTEGRITY).
4308* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, Intel x86,
4309  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
4310  Currently supported: ARM, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
4311* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
4312* Load Address
4313* Entry Point
4314* Image Name
4315* Image Timestamp
4316
4317The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
4318and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
4319CRC32 checksums.
4320
4321
4322Linux Support:
4323==============
4324
4325Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
4326easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4327U-Boot.
4328
4329U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4330special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4331"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4332instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
4333serves several purposes:
4334
4335- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4336  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4337  Flash memory footprint)
4338
4339- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
4340  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
4341
4342- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4343  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4344  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4345  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4346  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4347  software is easier now.
4348
4349
4350Linux HOWTO:
4351============
4352
4353Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4354---------------------------------------
4355
4356U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4357configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4358(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4359Linux :-).
4360
4361But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
4362
4363Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
4364include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
4365Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
4366and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
4367as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
4368
4369Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
4370If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
4371is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
4372doc/driver-model.
4373
4374
4375Configuring the Linux kernel:
4376-----------------------------
4377
4378No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
4379device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
4380
4381
4382Building a Linux Image:
4383-----------------------
4384
4385With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
4386not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
4387"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
4388U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
4389which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
4390100% compatible format.
4391
4392Example:
4393
4394	make TQM850L_defconfig
4395	make oldconfig
4396	make dep
4397	make uImage
4398
4399The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
4400encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
4401CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
4402
4403* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
4404
4405* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
4406
4407	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
4408				 -R .note -R .comment \
4409				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
4410
4411* compress the binary image:
4412
4413	gzip -9 linux.bin
4414
4415* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
4416
4417	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
4418		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
4419		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
4420
4421
4422The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
4423with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
4424combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
4425byte header containing information about target architecture,
4426operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
4427stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
4428
4429"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
4430print the header information, or to build new images.
4431
4432In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
4433contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
4434checksum verification:
4435
4436	tools/mkimage -l image
4437	  -l ==> list image header information
4438
4439The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
4440from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
4441
4442	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
4443		      -n name -d data_file image
4444	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
4445	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
4446	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4447	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
4448	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
4449	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
4450	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
4451	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
4452
4453Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
4454address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
4455kernel version:
4456
4457- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
4458- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
4459
4460So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
4461
4462	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
4463	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
4464	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
4465	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
4466	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4467	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4468	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
4469	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
4470	Load Address: 0x00000000
4471	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4472
4473To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
4474
4475	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
4476	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4477	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4478	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
4479	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
4480	Load Address: 0x00000000
4481	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4482
4483NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
4484speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
4485needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
4486need to be uncompressed:
4487
4488	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
4489	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
4490	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
4491	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
4492	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
4493	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4494	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4495	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
4496	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
4497	Load Address: 0x00000000
4498	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4499
4500
4501Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
4502when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
4503
4504	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
4505	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
4506	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
4507	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
4508	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
4509	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
4510	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
4511	Load Address: 0x00000000
4512	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4513
4514The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
4515option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
4516option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
4517from the image:
4518
4519	tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file
4520	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file'
4521	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4522	  -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image'
4523
4524
4525Installing a Linux Image:
4526-------------------------
4527
4528To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
4529you must convert the image to S-Record format:
4530
4531	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
4532
4533The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
4534image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
4535address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
4536specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
4537command.
4538
4539Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
4540TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
4541
4542	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
4543
4544	.......... done
4545	Erased 8 sectors
4546
4547	=> loads 40100000
4548	## Ready for S-Record download ...
4549	~>examples/image.srec
4550	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
4551	...
4552	15989 15990 15991 15992
4553	[file transfer complete]
4554	[connected]
4555	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
4556
4557
4558You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
4559this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
4560corruption happened:
4561
4562	=> imi 40100000
4563
4564	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
4565	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L

4569	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
4570	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
4571
4572
4573Boot Linux:
4574-----------
4575
4576The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
4577memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
4578of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
4579parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
4580"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
4581
4582
4583	=> printenv bootargs
4584	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
4585
4586	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
4587
4588	=> printenv bootargs

4607If you want to boot a Linux kernel with initial RAM disk, you pass
4608the memory addresses of both the kernel and the initrd image (PPBCOOT

4656Boot Linux and pass a flat device tree:
4657-----------
4658
4659First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section
4660titled "Linux Kernel Interface" above for a more in depth explanation. The
4661following is an example of how to start a kernel and pass an updated
4662flat device tree:

4705More About U-Boot Image Types:
4706------------------------------
4707
4708U-Boot supports the following image types:
4709
4710   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
4711	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
4712	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
4713	the Standalone Program.
4714   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
4715	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
4716	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
4717	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
4718	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
4719   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
4720	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
4721	being started.
4722   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
4723	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
4724	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
4725	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
4726	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
4727	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
4728
4729	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
4730	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
4731	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
4732	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
4733	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
4734	a multiple of 4 bytes).
4735
4736   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
4737	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
4738	flash memory.
4739
4740   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
4741	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
4742	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
4743	as command interpreter.
4744
4745Booting the Linux zImage:
4746-------------------------
4747
4748On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
4749using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
4750as the syntax of "bootm" command.
4751
4752Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
4753kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
4754address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
4755format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
4756
4757
4758Standalone HOWTO:
4759=================
4760
4761One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
4762run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
4763U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
4764
4765Two simple examples are included with the sources:
4766
4767"Hello World" Demo:
4768-------------------
4769
4770'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
4771application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
4772It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
4773like that:
4774
4775	=> loads
4776	## Ready for S-Record download ...
4777	~>examples/hello_world.srec
4778	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
4779	[file transfer complete]
4780	[connected]
4781	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
4782
4783	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
4784	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
4785	Hello World
4786	argc = 7
4787	argv[0] = "40004"
4788	argv[1] = "Hello"
4789	argv[2] = "World!"
4790	argv[3] = "This"
4791	argv[4] = "is"
4792	argv[5] = "a"
4793	argv[6] = "test."
4794	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
4795	Hit any key to exit ...
4796
4797	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
4798
4799Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
4800handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
4801Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
4802The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
4803character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
4804controlled by the following keys:
4805
4806	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
4807	b - enable interrupts and start timer
4808	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
4809	q - quit application
4810
4811	=> loads

4846Minicom warning:
4847================
4848
4849Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
4850"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
4851consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
4852Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
4853especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
4854use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
4855http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
4856for help with kermit.
4857
4858
4859Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
4860configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
4861
4862	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
4863	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N
4864	Y  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r	 N    D	   Y	   N	  N
4865
4866
4867NetBSD Notes:
4868=============
4869
4870Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
4871(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
4872
4873Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
4874NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
4875need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
4876Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
4877attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
4878missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
4879
4880	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
4881	# mkdir powerpc
4882	# ln -s powerpc machine
4883	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
4884	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
4885
4886Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
4887and U-Boot include files.
4888
4889Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
4890stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
4891proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
4892tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
4893meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz

4896Implementation Internals:
4897=========================
4898
4899The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
4900implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
4901inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
4902hardware.
4903
4904
4905Initial Stack, Global Data:
4906---------------------------
4907
4908The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
4909starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
4910system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
4911This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
4912is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
4913at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
4914options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
4915models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
4916MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
4917locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
4918
4919	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
4920	U-Boot mailing list:
4921
4922	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
4923	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>

4925	...
4926
4927	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
4928	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
4929	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
4930	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
4931	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
4932	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
4933	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
4934	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
4935
4936	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
4937	is another option for the system designer to use as an
4938	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
4939	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
4940	board designers haven't used it for something that would
4941	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
4942	used.
4943
4944	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
4945	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
4946	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
4947	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
4948	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
4949	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
4950	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
4951	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
4952	you get the config right.

4956
4957It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
4958code for the initialization procedures:
4959
4960* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
4961  to write it.
4962
4963* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized
4964  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
4965  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
4966
4967* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
4968  that.
4969
4970Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
4971normal global data to share information between the code. But it
4972turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
4973simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
4974functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
4975functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
4976the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
4977place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
4978reserve for this purpose.
4979
4980When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
4981relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
4982GCC's implementation.
4983
4984For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
4985	R1:	stack pointer
4986	R2:	reserved for system use
4987	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
4988	R5-R10: parameter passing
4989	R13:	small data area pointer
4990	R30:	GOT pointer
4991	R31:	frame pointer
4992
4993	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
4994	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
4995	going back and forth between asm and C)
4996
4997    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
4998
4999    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
5000    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
5001    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
5002    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
5003    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
5004    624 text + 127 data).
5005
5006On ARM, the following registers are used:
5007
5008	R0:	function argument word/integer result
5009	R1-R3:	function argument word
5010	R9:	platform specific
5011	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
5012	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
5013	R12:	temporary workspace
5014	R13:	stack pointer
5015	R14:	link register
5016	R15:	program counter
5017
5018    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
5019
5020    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
5021
5022On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
5023	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
5024
5025    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
5026
5027    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
5028    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
5029
5030On NDS32, the following registers are used:
5031
5032	R0-R1:	argument/return
5033	R2-R5:	argument
5034	R15:	temporary register for assembler
5035	R16:	trampoline register
5036	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
5037	R29:	global pointer (GP)
5038	R30:	link register (LP)
5039	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
5040	PC:	program counter (PC)
5041
5042    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
5043
5044NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
5045or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
5046
5047Memory Management:
5048------------------
5049
5050U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5051MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5052
5053The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5054controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5055memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5056physical memory banks.
5057
5058U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5059TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5060booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5061to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
5062memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5063configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5064Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5065
5066Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5067of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5068
5069So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5070this:
5071
5072	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5073	      :
5074	0x0000 1FFF
5075	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5076	      :
5077	      :
5078
5079	      :
5080	      :
5081	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5082	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5083	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5084	      :
5085	0x00FD FFFF
5086	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5087	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5088	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5089	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5090
5091
5092System Initialization:
5093----------------------
5094
5095In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
5096(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5097configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory.
5098To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5099To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5100initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5101which provide such a feature like), or in a locked part of the data
5102cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, the caches and
5103the SIU.
5104
5105Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5106preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5107(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5108on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5109programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5110simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5111banks.
5112
5113When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
5114different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5115bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
51160x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5117contiguous memory starting from 0.
5118
5119Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5120and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5121Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5122pages, and the final stack is set up.
5123
5124Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5125until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5126running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5127new address in RAM.

5203
5204Coding Standards:
5205-----------------
5206
5207All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
5208coding style; see the kernel coding style guide at
5209https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/coding-style.html, and the
5210script "scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
5211
5212Source files originating from a different project (for example the
5213MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
5214reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
5215sources.
5216
5217Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
5218Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
5219in your code.
5220
5221Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
5222- remove any trailing white space
5223- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
5224- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
5225- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
5226- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
5227
5228Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
5229with a request to reformat the changes.
5230
5231
5232Submitting Patches:
5233-------------------
5234
5235Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
5236establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
5237may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
5238
5239Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
5240
5241Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
5242see https://lists.denx.de/listinfo/u-boot
5243
5244When you send a patch, please include the following information with
5245it:
5246
5247* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
5248  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
5249  patch actually fixes something.
5250
5251* For new features: a description of the feature and your
5252  implementation.
5253
5254* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
5255
5256* For major contributions, add a MAINTAINERS file with your
5257  information and associated file and directory references.
5258
5259* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
5260  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
5261
5262* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5263  document these in the README file.
5264
5265* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5266  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
5267  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
5268  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5269  with some other mail clients.
5270
5271  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5272  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5273  GNU diff.
5274
5275  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5276  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5277  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
5278  affected files).
5279
5280  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5281  and compressed attachments must not be used.
5282
5283* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
5284  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
5285
5286* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
5287  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
5288
5289
5290Notes:
5291
5292* Before sending the patch, run the buildman script on your patched
5293  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5294  for any of the boards.
5295
5296* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5297  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5298  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
5299
5300* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5301  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5302  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5303  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5304  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5305  modification.
5306
5307* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
5308  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
5309  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
5310  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
