24Summary:
25========
26
27This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
28Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
29processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
30initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
31code.
32
33The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
34the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
35header files in common, and special provision has been made to
36support booting of Linux images.
37
38Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
39configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
40implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
41add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
42code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
43load and run it dynamically.
44
45
46Status:
47=======
48
49In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
50Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
51"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.
52
53In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out
54who contributed the specific port. The MAINTAINERS file lists board
55maintainers.
56
57Note: There is no CHANGELOG file in the actual U-Boot source tree;
58it can be created dynamically from the Git log using:

238Software Configuration:
239=======================
240
241Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
242rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
243
244There are two classes of configuration variables:
245
246* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
247  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
248  "CONFIG_".
249
250* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
251  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
252  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
253  "CONFIG_SYS_".
254
255Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
256identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
257do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
258links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
259as an example here.
260
261
262Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
263---------------------------------------------------
264
265For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
266configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
267
268Example: For a TQM823L module type:
269
270	cd u-boot
271	make TQM823L_config
272
273For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
274e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
275directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
276
277
278Configuration Options:
279----------------------
280
281Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
282such information is kept in a configuration file
283"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
284
285Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
286"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
287
288
289Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
290kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
291build a config tool - later.
292
293
294The following options need to be configured:
295
296- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
297
298- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
299
300- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
301		Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
302
303- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
304		Define exactly one of
305		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
306--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
307		CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
308		CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
309
310- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
311		Define exactly one of
312		CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
313
314- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
315		Define one or more of
316		CONFIG_CMA302
317
318- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
319		Define one or more of
320		CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT	- update a character position on
321					  the LCD display every second with
322					  a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
323
324- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined)
325		CONFIG_ADSTYPE
326		Possible values are:
327			CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS	- original MPC8260ADS
328			CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS	- MPC8266ADS
329			CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS	- PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR
330			CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS	- MPC8272ADS
331
332- Marvell Family Member
333		CONFIG_SYS_MVFS		- define it if you want to enable
334					  multiple fs option at one time
335					  for marvell soc family
336
337- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
338		Define exactly one of
339		CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
340
341- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
342		CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ	- deprecated: CPU clock if
343					  get_gclk_freq() cannot work
344					  e.g. if there is no 32KHz
345					  reference PIT/RTC clock
346		CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK	- PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
347					  or XTAL/EXTAL)
348
349- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
350		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
351		CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
352		CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
353			See doc/README.MPC866
354
355		CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
356
357		Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
358		of relying on the correctness of the configured
359		values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
360		the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
361		that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
362		RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
363
364		CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
365
366		Define this option if you want to enable the
367		ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
368
369- 85xx CPU Options:
370		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
371
372		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
373		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
374		compliance, among other possible reasons.
375
376		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
377
378		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
379		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
380		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
381
382		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
383
384		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
385		tree nodes for the given platform.
386
387		CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
388
389		Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
390		around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
391		support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
392		breakpoints and single stepping do not work.  The value of this
393		symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
394		purpose.
395
396		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
397
398		Enables a workaround for erratum A004510.  If set,
399		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
400		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
401
402		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
403		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
404
405		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
406		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
407
408		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
409		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
410		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
411		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
412
413		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
414		this erratum.
415
416		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
417		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
418		requred during NOR boot.
419
420		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
421
422		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
423		according to the A004510 workaround.
424
425		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
426		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
427		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
428
429		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
430		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
431
432- Generic CPU options:
433		CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
434
435		Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
436		values is arch specific.
437
438- Intel Monahans options:
439		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO
440
441		Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator
442		ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core
443		frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz.
444
445		CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO
446
447		Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator
448		ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and
449		2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied
450		by this value.
451
452- MIPS CPU options:
453		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET
454
455		Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack
456		pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before
457		relocation.
458
459		CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE
460
461		Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU.
462		See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h.
463		Possible values are:
464			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA
465			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA
466			CONF_CM_UNCACHED
467			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT
468			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE
469			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW
470			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW
471			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
472
473		CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
474
475		Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
476		See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
477
478		CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
479
480		Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
481		XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
482		be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
483
484- ARM options:
485		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
486
487		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
488		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
489
490		CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
491
492		Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
493		set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
494		better code density. For ARM architectures that support
495		Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
496		GCC.
497
498		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
499		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
500		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
501		CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
502
503		If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
504		during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
505		workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
506		exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
507		set these options unless they apply!
508
509- CPU timer options:
510		CONFIG_SYS_HZ
511
512		The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer().
513		get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG
514		option must be set to 1000.
515
516- Linux Kernel Interface:
517		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
518
519		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
520		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
521		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
522		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
523		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
524		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
525		Linux kernel.
526		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
527		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
528		default environment.
529
530		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
531
532		When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions
533		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
534		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
535
536		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
537
538		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
539		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
540		concepts).
541
542		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
543		 * New libfdt-based support
544		 * Adds the "fdt" command
545		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
546
547		OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
548			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
549		OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
550			MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
551		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
552		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
553
554		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
555		addresses
556
557		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
558
559		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
560		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
561
562		CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
563
564		This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
565		param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
566
567		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
568
569		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
570		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
571		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
572		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
573		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
574		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
575
576		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
577
578		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
579		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
580		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
581		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
582		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
583		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
584		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
585
586- vxWorks boot parameters:
587
588		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
589		environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
590		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
591
592		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
593		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
594		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
595		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
596
597		CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
598
599		Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
600
601		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
602		the defaults discussed just above.
603
604- Cache Configuration:
605		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
606		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
607		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
608
609- Cache Configuration for ARM:
610		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
611				      controller
612		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
613					controller register space
614
615- Serial Ports:
616		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
617
618		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
619
620		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
621
622		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
623
624		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
625
626		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
627		the clock speed of the UARTs.
628
629		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
630
631		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
632		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
633		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
634
635		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
636
637		Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
638		have separate receive and transmit line control registers.  Set
639		this variable to initialize the extra register.
640
641		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
642
643		On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
644		boot loader that has already initialized the UART.  Define this
645		variable to flush the UART at init time.
646
647
648- Console Interface:
649		Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
650		(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
651		CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
652		console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
653
654		Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
655		port routines must be defined elsewhere
656		(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
657
658		CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
659		Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
660		defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
661			VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN	graphic memory organisation
662						(default big endian)
663			VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL	graphic chip supports
664						rectangle fill
665						(cf. smiLynxEM)
666			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
667						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
668			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
669						(cols=pitch)
670			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS	visible pixel rows
671			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE	bytes per pixel
672			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
673						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
674			VIDEO_FB_ADRS		framebuffer address
675			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
676						(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
677			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
678						(i.e. i8042_tstc)
679			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
680						(i.e. i8042_getc)
681			CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR	cursor drawing on/off
682						(requires blink timer
683						cf. i8042.c)
684			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
685			CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME	display time/date info in
686						upper right corner
687						(requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
688			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO	display Linux logo in
689						upper left corner
690			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO	use bmp_logo.h instead of
691						linux_logo.h for logo.
692						Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
693			CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
694						additional board info beside
695						the logo
696
697		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
698		a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
699		erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
700
701		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
702		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
703		environment 'console=serial'.
704
705		When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
706		messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
707		the "silent" environment variable. See
708		doc/README.silent for more information.
709
710- Console Baudrate:
711		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
712		Select one of the baudrates listed in
713		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
714		CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
715
716- Console Rx buffer length
717		With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
718		the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
719		This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
720		If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
721		must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
722		the SMC.
723
724- Pre-Console Buffer:
725		Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
726		initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
727		Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
728		buffer any console messages prior to the console being
729		initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
730		bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
731		a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
732		bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
733		earlier bytes are discarded.
734
735		'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
736		CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
737
738- Safe printf() functions
739		Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
740		the printf() functions. These are defined in
741		include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
742		so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
743		If this option is not given then these functions will
744		silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
745		you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
746
747- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
748		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
749		set to -1 to disable autoboot.
750		set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
751		(even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
752
753		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
754		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
755		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
756		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
757		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
758		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
759		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
760		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
761		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
762		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
763		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
764		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
765
766- Autoboot Command:
767		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
768		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
769		define a command string that is automatically executed
770		when no character is read on the console interface
771		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
772
773		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
774		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
775		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
776		environment value "bootargs".
777
778		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
779		The value of these goes into the environment as
780		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
781		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
782		RAM and NFS.
783
784- Pre-Boot Commands:
785		CONFIG_PREBOOT
786
787		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
788		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
789		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
790		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
791		entering interactive mode.
792
793		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
794		automatically generated or modified. For an example
795		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
796		modified when the user holds down a certain
797		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
798		booting the systems
799
800- Serial Download Echo Mode:
801		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
802		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
803		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
804		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
805		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
806		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
807		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
808
809- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
810		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
811		Select one of the baudrates listed in
812		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
813
814- Monitor Functions:
815		Monitor commands can be included or excluded
816		from the build by using the #include files
817		<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
818		commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
819		and augmenting with additional #define's
820		for wanted commands.
821
822		The default command configuration includes all commands
823		except those marked below with a "*".

926		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
927		support you can write:
928
929		#include "config_cmd_all.h"
930		#undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
931
932	Other Commands:
933		fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
934
935	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
936		(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
937		what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
938		cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
939		8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
940		uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
941		systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
942		initial stack and some data.
943
944
945		XXX - this list needs to get updated!
946
947- Regular expression support:
948		CONFIG_REGEX
949                If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
950                the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
951                which adds regex support to some commands, as for
952                example "env grep" and "setexpr".
953
954- Device tree:
955		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
956		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
957		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
958		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
959		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
960		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
961
962		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
963		be done using one of the two options below:
964
965		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
966		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
967		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
968		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
969		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
970		the global data structure as gd->blob.
971
972		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
973		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
974		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
975		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
976
977			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
978
979		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
980		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
981		still use the individual files if you need something more
982		exotic.
983
984- Watchdog:
985		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
986		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
987		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
988		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
989		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
990		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
991		available, then no further board specific code should
992		be needed to use it.
993
994		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
995		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
996		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
997		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
998
999- U-Boot Version:
1000		CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1001		If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1002		named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1003		version as printed by the "version" command.
1004		Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1005		next reset.
1006
1007- Real-Time Clock:
1008
1009		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1010		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1011		following options:
1012
1013		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1014		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1015		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1016		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
1017		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC

1299		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1300		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1301		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1302		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1303		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1304		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1305		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1306		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1307		a Linux host by
1308		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1309		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1310		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following

1322			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1323			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1324			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1325			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1326			speed.

1369		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1370		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1371		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1372		viewport is supported.
1373		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1374		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1375		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1376		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1377		the appropriate value in Hz.

1414		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1415		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1416		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1417
1418		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1419		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1420		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1421		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1422		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1423		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1424

1437
1438		If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1439		#define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART	1
1440		to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1441		have not defined a custom partition
1442

1505		(i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1506
1507		- "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1508		from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1509
1510
1511		CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1512		Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1513		and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1514		or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1515
1516		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1517		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1518		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1519		support, and should also define these other macros:
1520
1521			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1522			CONFIG_VIDEO
1523			CONFIG_CMD_BMP
1524			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1525			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1526			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1527			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1528			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1529
1530		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1531		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1532		boot.  See the documentation file README.video for a
1533		description of this variable.
1534
1535		CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
1536
1537		Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1538		are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1539		driver.
1540
1541
1542- Keyboard Support:
1543		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1544
1545		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1546		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1547		defined in your board-specific files.
1548		The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1549
1550- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1551
1552		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1553		display); also select one of the supported displays
1554		by defining one of these:
1555
1556		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1557
1558			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1559
1560		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1561
1562			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1563
1564		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1565
1566			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1567			Active, color, single scan.
1568
1569		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1570
1571			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1572			Active, color, single scan.
1573
1574		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1575
1576			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1577			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1578
1579		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1580
1581			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1582			Active, color, single scan.
1583
1584		CONFIG_HLD1045
1585
1586			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1587			Active, color, single scan.
1588
1589		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1590
1591			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1592			or
1593			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1594			or
1595			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1596
1597			320x240. Black & white.
1598
1599		Normally display is black on white background; define
1600		CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1601
1602		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1603
1604		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1605		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1606		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1607		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1608		a per-section basis.
1609
1610		CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1611
1612		When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1613		lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1614		the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1615		is slow.
1616
1617		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1618
1619		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1620
1621		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1622
1623		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1624		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1625
1626- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1627
1628		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1629		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1630		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1631		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1632		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1633		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1634		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1635		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1636
1637		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1638
1639		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1640		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1641		(see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses).
1642		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1643		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1644		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1645		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1646		there is no need to set this option.
1647
1648		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1649
1650		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1651		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1652		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1653		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1654		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1655		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1656
1657		Example:
1658		setenv splashpos m,m
1659			=> image at center of screen
1660
1661		setenv splashpos 30,20
1662			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1663
1664		setenv splashpos -10,m
1665			=> vertically centered image
1666			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1667
1668- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1669
1670		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1671		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1672		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1673
1674- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1675
1676		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1677		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1678		bmp command.
1679
1680- Do compresssing for memory range:
1681		CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1682
1683		If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1684		to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1685
1686- Compression support:
1687		CONFIG_BZIP2
1688
1689		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1690		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1691		compressed images are supported.
1692
1693		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1694		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1695		be at least 4MB.
1696
1697		CONFIG_LZMA
1698
1699		If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1700		images is included.
1701
1702		Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1703		requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1704		formula:
1705
1706			(1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1707
1708		Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1709		and Literal pos bits.
1710
1711		This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1712		for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1713		total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1714		a very small buffer.
1715
1716		Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1717		then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1718		the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1719
1720- MII/PHY support:
1721		CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
1722
1723		The address of PHY on MII bus.
1724
1725		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1726
1727		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1728
1729		CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
1730
1731		If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1732		detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1733
1734		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1735
1736		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1737		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1738		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1739		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1740
1741		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1742
1743		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1744		command issued before MII status register can be read
1745
1746- Ethernet address:
1747		CONFIG_ETHADDR
1748		CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
1749		CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
1750		CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
1751		CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
1752		CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
1753
1754		Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1755		for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
1756		is not determined automatically.
1757
1758- IP address:
1759		CONFIG_IPADDR
1760
1761		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1762		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1763		determined through e.g. bootp.
1764		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
1765
1766- Server IP address:
1767		CONFIG_SERVERIP
1768
1769		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1770		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1771		(Environment variable "serverip")
1772
1773		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1774
1775		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1776		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1777
1778- Gateway IP address:
1779		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
1780
1781		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1782		default router where packets to other networks are
1783		sent to.
1784		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
1785
1786- Subnet mask:
1787		CONFIG_NETMASK
1788
1789		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
1790		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
1791		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
1792		forwarded through a router.
1793		(Environment variable "netmask")
1794
1795- Multicast TFTP Mode:
1796		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
1797
1798		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1799		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
1800		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
1801		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1802		multicast group.
1803
1804- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1805		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1806
1807		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1808		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1809		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1810		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1811		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1812		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1813		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1814		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
1815		following delays are inserted then:
1816
1817		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
1818		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
1819		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
1820		4th and following
1821		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
1822
1823- DHCP Advanced Options:
1824		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1825		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1826
1827		CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
1828		CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
1829		CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
1830		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
1831		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
1832		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
1833		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1834		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
1835		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
1836		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
1837		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
1838		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
1839		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1840
1841		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1842		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1843
1844		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1845		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1846		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
1847		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1848		is not available.
1849
1850		CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1851		serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1852		than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1853		If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1854		serverip will be stored in the additional environment
1855		variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
1856		stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1857		is defined.
1858
1859		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1860		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1861		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
1862		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
1863		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
1864		option 12 to the DHCP server.
1865
1866		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1867
1868		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1869		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1870		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1871		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1872		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1873		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1874		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1875		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1876		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1877		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1878		this delay.
1879
1880 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1881		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1882		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1883		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1884		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1885
1886		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
1887
1888 - CDP Options:
1889		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
1890
1891		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
1892
1893		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
1894
1895		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
1896		of the device.
1897
1898		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1899
1900		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1901		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
1902		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
1903
1904		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
1905
1906		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
1907		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
1908
1909		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
1910
1911		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
1912
1913		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
1914
1915		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
1916
1917		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
1918
1919		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
1920
1921		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
1922
1923		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
1924		device in .1 of milliwatts.
1925
1926		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
1927
1928		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
1929
1930- Status LED:	CONFIG_STATUS_LED
1931
1932		Several configurations allow to display the current
1933		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
1934		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
1935		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
1936		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
1937		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
1938		kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
1939		feature in U-Boot.
1940
1941- CAN Support:	CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
1942
1943		Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
1944		on those systems that support this (optional)
1945		feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
1946
1947- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
1948
1949		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
1950		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
1951		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
1952		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
1953		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
1954		interface.
1955
1956		ported i2c driver to the new framework:
1957		- drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c:
1958		  - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define
1959		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE
1960		    for defining speed and slave address
1961		  - activate second bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS2 define
1962		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_2 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_2
1963		    for defining speed and slave address
1964		  - activate third bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS3 define
1965		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_3 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_3
1966		    for defining speed and slave address
1967		  - activate fourth bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS4 define
1968		    CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_4 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_4
1969		    for defining speed and slave address
1970
1971		- drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c:
1972		  - activate i2c driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_FSL
1973		    define CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_OFFSET for setting the register
1974		    offset CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SPEED for the i2c speed and
1975		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SLAVE for the slave addr of the first
1976		    bus.
1977                  - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define
1978		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset
1979		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SPEED for the speed and
1980		    CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SLAVE for the slave address of the
1981		    second bus.
1982
1983		- drivers/i2c/tegra_i2c.c:
1984		 - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_TEGRA
1985		 - This driver adds 4 i2c buses with a fix speed from
1986		   100000 and the slave addr 0!
1987
1988		additional defines:
1989
1990		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
1991		Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
1992		don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
1993		is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
1994		omit this define.
1995
1996		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
1997		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
1998		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
1999		omit this define.
2000
2001		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2002		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2003		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2004		define.
2005
2006		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2007		hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2008		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2009		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2010		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:

2035
2036- Legacy I2C Support:	CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2037
2038		NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2039		provides the following compelling advantages:
2040
2041		- more than one i2c adapter is usable
2042		- approved multibus support
2043		- better i2c mux support
2044
2045		** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2046
2047		These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2048		CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2049		for the selected CPU.
2050
2051		This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2052		command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2053		CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2054		clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2055		command line interface.
2056
2057		CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2058
2059		There are several other quantities that must also be
2060		defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2061
2062		In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2063		to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2064		to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2065		the CPU's i2c node address).
2066
2067		Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2068		(arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2069		and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2070		eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2071		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2072
2073		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2074
2075		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2076		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2077		in progress.  Reset the slave devices by sending start
2078		commands until the slave device responds.
2079
2080		That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2081
2082		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2083		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2084		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2085
2086		I2C_INIT
2087
2088		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2089		controller or configure ports.
2090
2091		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
2092
2093		I2C_PORT
2094
2095		(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2096		assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2097		are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2098
2099		I2C_ACTIVE
2100
2101		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2102		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
2103		define can be null.
2104
2105		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
2106
2107		I2C_TRISTATE
2108
2109		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2110		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
2111		define can be null.
2112
2113		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2114
2115		I2C_READ
2116
2117		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2118		false if it is low.
2119
2120		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2121
2122		I2C_SDA(bit)
2123
2124		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2125		is false, it clears it (low).
2126
2127		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2128			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
2129			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2130
2131		I2C_SCL(bit)
2132
2133		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2134		is false, it clears it (low).
2135
2136		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2137			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
2138			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2139
2140		I2C_DELAY
2141
2142		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2143		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
2144		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2145		like:
2146
2147		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
2148
2149		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2150
2151		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2152		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2153		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2154		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2155
2156		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2157		the generic GPIO functions.
2158
2159		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2160
2161		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2162		chips might think that the current transfer is still
2163		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2164		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2165		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2166		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2167		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2168		is run early in the boot sequence.
2169
2170		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2171
2172		An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2173		defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2174		boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2175		is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2176		using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2177		controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2178		i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2179		controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2180
2181		CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2182
2183		This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2184		in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2185		variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2186
2187		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2188
2189		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2190		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
2191		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2192		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2193
2194		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2195
2196		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2197		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2198		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
2199		a 1D array of device addresses
2200
2201		e.g.
2202			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2203			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2204
2205		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2206
2207			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2208			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2209
2210		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2211
2212		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2213
2214		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2215		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2216
2217		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2218
2219		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2220		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2221
2222		CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2223
2224		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2225		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2226
2227		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2228
2229		If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2230		If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2231		specified DTT device.
2232
2233		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2234
2235		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2236		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2237		between writing the address pointer and reading the
2238		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2239		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
2240		devices can use either method, but some require one or
2241		the other.
2242
2243- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
2244
2245		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2246		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2247		D/As on the SACSng board)
2248
2249		CONFIG_SH_SPI
2250
2251		Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2252		only SH7757 is supported.
2253
2254		CONFIG_SPI_X
2255
2256		Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2257		(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2258
2259		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
2260
2261		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2262		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2263		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2264		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2265		defined, the board configuration must define several
2266		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2267		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2268
2269		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
2270
2271		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2272		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2273		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2274		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
2275		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2276
2277		CONFIG_MXC_SPI
2278
2279		Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2280		SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2281
2282- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2283
2284		Enables FPGA subsystem.
2285
2286		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2287
2288		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2289		(ALTERA, XILINX)
2290
2291		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2292
2293		Enables support for FPGA family.
2294		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2295
2296		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2297
2298		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2299
2300		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2301
2302		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2303
2304		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2305
2306		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2307		status by the configuration function. This option
2308		will require a board or device specific function to
2309		be written.
2310
2311		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2312
2313		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2314		configuration driver.
2315
2316		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2317		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2318
2319		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2320
2321		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2322		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2323		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2324		indicated a CRC error).
2325
2326		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2327
2328		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2329		after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2330		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2331		ms.
2332
2333		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2334
2335		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2336		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2337
2338		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2339
2340		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2341		200 ms.
2342
2343- Configuration Management:
2344		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2345
2346		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2347		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2348
2349- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2350
2351		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2352		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2353		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2354		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2355		protects these variables from casual modification by
2356		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2357		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2358		change this behaviour:
2359
2360		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2361		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2362		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2363		these parameters.
2364
2365		Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2366		_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2367		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2368		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2369		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2370		read-only.]
2371
2372		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2373		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2374		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2375		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2376
2377- Protected RAM:
2378		CONFIG_PRAM
2379
2380		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2381		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2382		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2383		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2384		this default value by defining an environment
2385		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2386		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2387		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2388		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2389		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2390		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2391		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2392
2393			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2394			saveenv
2395
2396		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2397		either, which results in a memory region that will
2398		not be affected by reboots.
2399
2400		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2401		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2402		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2403		following board configurations are known to be
2404		"pRAM-clean":
2405
2406			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2407			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2408			FLAGADM, TQM8260
2409
2410- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2411		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2412		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2413		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2414		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2415		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2416		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2417
2418- Error Recovery:
2419		CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2420
2421		Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2422		fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2423		This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2424		system where you want the system to reboot
2425		automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2426		useful during development since you can try to debug
2427		the conditions that lead to the situation.
2428
2429		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2430
2431		This variable defines the number of retries for
2432		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2433		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2434		default value of 5 is used.
2435
2436		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2437
2438		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2439
2440		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2441
2442		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2443		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2444		try longer timeout such as
2445		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2446
2447- Command Interpreter:
2448		CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2449
2450		Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2451
2452		Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2453		for the "hush" shell.
2454
2455
2456		CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2457
2458		Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2459		Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2460		powerful command line syntax like
2461		if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2462		constructs ("shell scripts").
2463
2464		If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2465		with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2466
2467
2468		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2469
2470		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2471		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2472		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2473
2474	Note:
2475
2476		In the current implementation, the local variables
2477		space and global environment variables space are
2478		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2479		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2480		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2481		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2482		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2483
2484		Global environment variables are those you use
2485		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2486		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2487		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2488
2489		To store commands and special characters in a
2490		variable, please use double quotation marks
2491		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2492		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2493		symbols.
2494
2495- Commandline Editing and History:
2496		CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2497
2498		Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2499		commandline input operations
2500
2501- Default Environment:
2502		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2503
2504		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2505		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2506		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2507
2508		For example, place something like this in your
2509		board's config file:
2510
2511		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2512			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2513			"myvar2=value2\0"
2514
2515		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2516		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2517		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2518		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2519		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2520		You better know what you are doing here.
2521
2522		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2523		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2524		the environment like the "source" command or the
2525		boot command first.
2526
2527		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2528
2529		Define this in order to add variables describing the
2530		U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2531		These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2532
2533		Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2534
2535		- CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2536		- CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2537		- CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2538		- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2539		- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2540
2541		CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2542
2543		Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2544		run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2545		environment.  These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2546
2547		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2548
2549		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2550		intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2551		that so that the environment is not available until
2552		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2553		this is instead controlled by the value of
2554		/config/load-environment.
2555
2556- DataFlash Support:
2557		CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2558
2559		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2560		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2561		commands cp, md...
2562
2563- Serial Flash support
2564		CONFIG_CMD_SF
2565
2566		Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2567		'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2568
2569		Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2570		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2571		commands.
2572
2573		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2574		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2575		flash is present on the system.
2576
2577		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2578		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2579		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2580		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2581
2582		CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2583
2584		Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2585		test ('sf test').
2586
2587		CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR		Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2588
2589		Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2590		support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2591
2592- SystemACE Support:
2593		CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2594
2595		Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2596		chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2597		of the chip must also be defined in the
2598		CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2599
2600		#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2601		#define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2602
2603		When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2604		becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2605
2606- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2607		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2608
2609		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2610		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2611		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2612		number generator is used.
2613
2614		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2615		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
2616		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2617
2618		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2619		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2620		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2621		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2622		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2623		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2624		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2625
2626- Hashing support:
2627		CONFIG_CMD_HASH
2628
2629		This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2630		hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2631
2632		CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
2633
2634		Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2635		size a little.
2636
2637		CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2638		CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2639
2640		Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2641		be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2642
2643- Signing support:
2644		CONFIG_RSA
2645
2646		This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
2647		in U-Boot. See doc/uImage/signature for more information.
2648
2649		The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
2650		option.
2651
2652
2653- Show boot progress:
2654		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2655
2656		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2657		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2658		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2659		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2660		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2661		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2662
2663- Detailed boot stage timing
2664		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
2665		Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
2666		of the boot process.
2667
2668		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
2669		This is the number of available user bootstage records.
2670		Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
2671		a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
2672		the limit, recording will stop.
2673
2674		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
2675		Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
2676
2677		Timer summary in microseconds:
2678		       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
2679			  0          0  reset
2680		  3,575,678  3,575,678  board_init_f start
2681		  3,575,695         17  arch_cpu_init A9
2682		  3,575,777         82  arch_cpu_init done
2683		  3,659,598     83,821  board_init_r start
2684		  3,910,375    250,777  main_loop
2685		 29,916,167 26,005,792  bootm_start
2686		 30,361,327    445,160  start_kernel
2687
2688		CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
2689		Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
2690		and un/stashing of bootstage data.
2691
2692		CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
2693		Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
2694		node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
2695		has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
2696		mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
2697		accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
2698		For example:
2699
2700		bootstage {
2701			154 {
2702				name = "board_init_f";
2703				mark = <3575678>;
2704			};
2705			170 {
2706				name = "lcd";
2707				accum = <33482>;
2708			};
2709		};
2710
2711		Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

2865
2866- FIT image support:
2867		CONFIG_FIT
2868		Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
2869
2870		CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
2871		When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
2872		one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
2873		U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
2874		most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
2875		The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
2876
2877		CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
2878		This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
2879		using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See
2880		doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
2881
2882- Standalone program support:
2883		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
2884
2885		This option defines a board specific value for the
2886		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
2887		overwriting the architecture dependent default
2888		settings.
2889
2890- Frame Buffer Address:
2891		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
2892
2893		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
2894		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
2895		when using a graphics controller has separate video
2896		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
2897		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
2898		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
2899		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
2900		configured panel size.
2901
2902		Please see board_init_f function.
2903
2904- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
2905		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
2906		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
2907		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
2908
2909		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
2910		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
2911
2912- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
2913		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
2914
2915		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
2916		Needed for mtdparts command support.
2917
2918		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
2919
2920		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
2921		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
2922
2923- UBI support
2924		CONFIG_CMD_UBI
2925
2926		Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
2927		with the UBI flash translation layer
2928
2929		Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
2930
2931		CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
2932
2933		Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing.  This leaves
2934		warnings and errors enabled.
2935
2936- UBIFS support
2937		CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
2938
2939		Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
2940		UBIFS.  UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
2941
2942		Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
2943
2944		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
2945
2946		Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing.  This leaves
2947		warnings and errors enabled.
2948
2949- SPL framework
2950		CONFIG_SPL
2951		Enable building of SPL globally.
2952
2953		CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT
2954		LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
2955
2956		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
2957		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
2958		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
2959		used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
2960		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2961		must not be both defined at the same time.
2962
2963		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
2964		Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and
2965		linker lists sections), BSS excluded.
2966		When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does
2967		not exceed it.
2968

2978
2979		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE

2982		by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
2983		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2984		must not be both defined at the same time.

3056
3057		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
3058		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
3059		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
3060		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
3061		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
3062
3063		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE
3064		Include nand_base.c in the SPL.  Requires
3065		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS.
3066
3067		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS
3068		SPL uses normal NAND drivers, not minimal drivers.
3069
3070		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC
3071		Include standard software ECC in the SPL
3072
3073		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE
3074		Support for NAND boot using simple NAND drivers that
3075		expose the cmd_ctrl() interface.
3076
3077		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT,

3079		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,
3080		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
3081		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
3082		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses

3096
3097		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
3098		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
3099		data. This is used for example on davinci plattforms.
3100
3101		CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND
3102		Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the
3103		ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present.
3104
3105		CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT
3106		Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary
3107
3108		CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT
3109		Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary
3110
3111		CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUPPORT
3112		Support for drivers/spi/libspi.o in SPL binary
3113
3114		CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE
3115		Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary
3116
3117		CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT
3118		Support for lib/libgeneric.o in SPL binary
3119
3120		CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT
3121		Support for the environment operating in SPL binary
3122
3123		CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT
3124		Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary.
3125		It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by
3126		CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE
3127
3128		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
3129		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
3130		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
3131		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
3132		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
3133		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
3134
3135		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
3136		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
3137		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
3138		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
3139
3140		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
3141		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
3142		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
3143		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
3144		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
3145
3146Modem Support:
3147--------------
3148
3149[so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
3150
3151- Modem support enable:
3152		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
3153
3154- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
3155		CONFIG_HWFLOW
3156
3157- Modem debug support:
3158		CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
3159
3160		Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
3161		for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
3162
3163- Interrupt support (PPC):
3164
3165		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3166		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
3167		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
3168		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
3169		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
3170		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
3171		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
3172		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3173		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3174		general timer_interrupt().
3175
3176- General:
3177
3178		In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3179		specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3180		power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
3181		(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
3182		board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3183		function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3184		initialization.
3185
3186		If there are no modem init strings in the
3187		environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3188		previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
3189		suppressed, though.
3190
3191		See also: doc/README.Modem
3192
3193Board initialization settings:
3194------------------------------
3195
3196During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3197to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3198before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3199following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3200architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3201typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
3202
3203- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
3204- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
3205- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
3206- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
3207
3208Configuration Settings:
3209-----------------------
3210
3211- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
3212		undefine this when you're short of memory.
3213
3214- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
3215		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
3216
3217- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
3218		prompt for user input.
3219
3220- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
3221
3222- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
3223
3224- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
3225
3226- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
3227		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
3228		booted
3229
3230- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
3231		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
3232
3233- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
3234		Suppress display of console information at boot.
3235
3236- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
3237		If the board specific function
3238			extern int overwrite_console (void);
3239		returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
3240		serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
3241
3242- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
3243		Enable the call to overwrite_console().
3244
3245- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
3246		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
3247
3248- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
3249		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
3250		simple memory test.
3251
3252- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
3253		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
3254
3255- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3256		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3257		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3258
3259- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
3260		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3261		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3262		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3263		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3264		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3265		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3266		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3267		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3268		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3269
3270		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3271		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3272		be touched.
3273
3274		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3275		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3276		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3277		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3278		problems.
3279
3280- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3281		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3282
3283- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3284		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3285
3286- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
3287		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3288		Cogent motherboard)
3289
3290- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3291		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3292
3293- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3294		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3295		make config files to be same as the text base address
3296		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3297		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3298
3299- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3300		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3301		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3302		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3303		flash sector.
3304
3305- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3306		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3307
3308- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3309		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3310		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3311		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3312		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3313
3314- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3315		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3316		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3317		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3318		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3319		enviroment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3320		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3321		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3322		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3323		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3324		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3325
3326- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3327		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3328		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3329		is enabled.
3330
3331- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3332		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3333		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3334
3335- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3336		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3337		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3338
3339- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3340		Max number of Flash memory banks
3341
3342- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3343		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3344
3345- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3346		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3347
3348- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3349		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3350
3351- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3352		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3353
3354- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3355		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3356
3357- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3358		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3359		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3360
3361- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3362
3363		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3364		without this option such a download has to be
3365		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3366		copy from RAM to flash.
3367
3368		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3369		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3370		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3371		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3372		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3373
3374- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3375		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3376		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3377
3378- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3379		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3380		in the drivers directory
3381
3382- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3383		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3384		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3385		to the MTD layer.
3386
3387- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3388		Use buffered writes to flash.
3389
3390- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3391		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3392		write commands.
3393
3394- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3395		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3396		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3397		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3398		optionally available.
3399
3400- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3401		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3402		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3403		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3404
3405- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3406		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3407		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3408		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3409		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3410		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3411		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3412		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3413
3414- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3415		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3416		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3417		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3418		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3419		on high Ethernet traffic.
3420		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3421
3422- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3423
3424	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3425	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3426	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3427	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3428	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3429
3430- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3431- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3432	Enable validation of the values given to enviroment variables when
3433	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3434	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3435	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3436
3437	The format of the list is:
3438		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3439		access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
3440		attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
3441		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3442		list = entry[,list]
3443
3444	The type attributes are:
3445		s - String (default)
3446		d - Decimal
3447		x - Hexadecimal
3448		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3449		i - IP address
3450		m - MAC address
3451
3452	The access attributes are:
3453		a - Any (default)
3454		r - Read-only
3455		o - Write-once
3456		c - Change-default
3457
3458	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3459		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3460		envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3461
3462	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3463		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3464		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3465		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
3466		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3467		".flags" variable.
3468
3469- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3470	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3471	access flags.
3472
3473- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
3474	This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
3475	architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
3476	to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
3477	arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
3478	common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
3479	must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
3480	its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
3481	your board please report the problem and send patches!
3482
3483- CONFIG_SYS_SYM_OFFSETS
3484	This is set by architectures that use offsets for link symbols
3485	instead of absolute values. So bss_start is obtained using an
3486	offset _bss_start_ofs from CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, rather than
3487	directly. You should not need to touch this setting.
3488
3489- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
3490	This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
3491	be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
3492	the value can be calulated on a given board.
3493
3494The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3495of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3496following configurations:
3497
3498- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3499
3500	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3501	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3502
3503- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
3504
3505	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
3506
3507	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
3508	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
3509	   happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
3510	   sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
3511	   sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
3512	   layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
3513	   such a case you would place the environment in one of the
3514	   4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
3515	   "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
3516	   environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
3517	   between U-Boot and the environment.
3518
3519	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3520
3521	   Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
3522	   beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
3523	   type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
3524	   for this sector is given here.
3525
3526	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
3527
3528	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3529
3530	   This is just another way to specify the start address of
3531	   the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
3532	   CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
3533
3534	- CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
3535
3536	   Size of the sector containing the environment.
3537
3538
3539	b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
3540	   In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
3541	   the environment.
3542
3543	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3544
3545	   If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
3546	   and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
3547	   of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
3548	   memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
3549
3550	   It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
3551	   when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
3552	   since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
3553	   for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
3554	   STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
3555	   updating the environment in flash makes it always
3556	   necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
3557	   wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
3558	   RAM, your target system will be dead.
3559
3560	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
3561	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
3562
3563	   These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
3564	   a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
3565	   a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
3566	   a "saveenv" operation.
3567
3568BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
3569source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
3570accordingly!
3571
3572
3573- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
3574
3575	Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
3576	(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
3577	environment.
3578
3579	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3580	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3581
3582	  These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
3583	  want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
3584	  can just be read and written to, without any special
3585	  provision.
3586
3587BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3588in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
3589console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
3590U-Boot will hang.
3591
3592Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3593environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3594keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3595to save the current settings.
3596
3597
3598- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
3599
3600	Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
3601	device and a driver for it.
3602
3603	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3604	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3605
3606	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
3607	  environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
3608
3609	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
3610	  If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
3611	  The default address is zero.
3612
3613	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
3614	  If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
3615	  single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example
3616	  would require six bits.
3617
3618	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
3619	  If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
3620	  page writes.	The default is zero milliseconds.
3621
3622	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
3623	  The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note
3624	  that this is NOT the chip address length!
3625
3626	- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
3627	  EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
3628	  like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
3629	  address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
3630	  slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
3631	  byte chips.
3632
3633	  Note that we consider the length of the address field to
3634	  still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
3635	  in the chip address.
3636
3637	- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
3638	  The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
3639
3640	- CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
3641	  define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
3642	  EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
3643
3644	- CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
3645	  if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
3646	  I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
3647	  EEPROM. For example:
3648
3649	  #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS	  1
3650
3651	  EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
3652	  a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
3653
3654- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
3655
3656	Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
3657	want to use for the environment.
3658
3659	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3660	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3661	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3662
3663	  These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
3664	  environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
3665	  at the specified address.
3666
3667- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
3668
3669	Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
3670	want to use for the local device's environment.
3671
3672	- CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3673	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3674
3675	  These two #defines specify the address and size of the
3676	  environment area within the remote memory space. The
3677	  local device can get the environment from remote memory
3678	  space by SRIO or PCIE links.
3679
3680BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3681"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
3682environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3683but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
3684
3685- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
3686
3687	Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
3688	for the environment.
3689
3690	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3691	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3692
3693	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
3694	  area within the first NAND device.  CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
3695	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3696
3697	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
3698
3699	  This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
3700	  size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
3701	  that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
3702	  during a "saveenv" operation.	 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
3703	  aligned to an erase block boundary.
3704
3705	- CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
3706
3707	  Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
3708	  can be written.  This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
3709	  block size.  Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
3710	  are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
3711	  the range to be avoided.
3712
3713	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
3714
3715	  Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
3716	  environment from block zero's out-of-band data.  The
3717	  "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
3718	  Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
3719	  using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
3720
3721- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
3722
3723	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
3724	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
3725	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3726
3727- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
3728
3729	Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
3730	environment.  This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
3731	accesses, which is important on NAND.
3732
3733	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
3734
3735	  Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
3736
3737	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
3738
3739	  Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
3740	  environment in.
3741
3742	- CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND:
3743
3744	  Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of
3745	  the environment in.  This will enable redundant environments in UBI.
3746	  It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition.
3747
3748	- CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3749	- CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3750
3751	  You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
3752	  when storing the env in UBI.
3753
3754- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC:
3755
3756	Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
3757	environment.
3758
3759	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
3760
3761	  Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
3762
3763	- CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
3764
3765	  Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
3766	  set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
3767	  1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
3768
3769	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3770	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3771
3772	  These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
3773	  area within the specified MMC device.
3774
3775	  If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
3776	  the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
3777	  as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
3778	  your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
3779	  different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
3780	  environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
3781	  maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
3782
3783	  These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
3784	  MMC sector boundary.
3785
3786	- CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
3787
3788	  Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
3789	  hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
3790	  valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
3791	  to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
3792
3793	  This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
3794	  same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
3795
3796	  This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
3797	  an MMC sector boundary.
3798
3799	- CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
3800
3801	  This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
3802	  set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
3803	  CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3804
3805- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
3806
3807	Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
3808	area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
3809	is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
3810	scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
3811	calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
3812	to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
3813	start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
3814
3815Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
3816has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
3817created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
3818until then to read environment variables.
3819
3820The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
3821is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
3822with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
3823necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
3824"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
3825have any device yet where we could complain.]
3826
3827Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
3828the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
3829use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
3830
3831- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
3832		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
3833
3834		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
3835		      also needs to be defined.
3836
3837- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
3838		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
3839
3840- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
3841		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
3842		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
3843		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
3844		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
3845		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
3846
3847- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
3848		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
3849		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
3850		to do this.
3851
3852- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
3853		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
3854		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
3855		present.
3856
3857Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
3858---------------------------------------------------
3859
3860- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
3861		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
3862
3863- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
3864		Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
3865
3866		Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
3867		and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
3868		the IMMR register after a reset.
3869
3870- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
3871		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
3872		PowerPC SOCs.
3873
3874- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
3875		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
3876		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
3877
3878		CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
3879		for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
3880
3881- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
3882		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
3883		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
3884		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
3885		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
3886		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
3887		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
3888
3889		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
3890			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
3891
3892- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
3893		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
3894		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
3895		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3896		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3897
3898- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3899		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
3900		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3901		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3902
3903- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
3904		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
3905		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
3906
3907- Floppy Disk Support:
3908		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
3909
3910		the default drive number (default value 0)
3911
3912		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
3913
3914		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
3915		(default value 1)
3916
3917		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
3918
3919		defines the offset of register from address. It
3920		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
3921		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
3922
3923		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
3924		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
3925		default value.
3926
3927		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
3928		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
3929		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
3930		source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
3931		initializations.
3932
3933- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
3934		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
3935		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
3936		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
3937		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
3938		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
3939		is requierd.
3940
3941- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
3942		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
3943		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
3944
3945- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
3946
3947		Start address of memory area that can be used for
3948		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
3949		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
3950		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
3951		will become available only after programming the
3952		memory controller and running certain initialization
3953		sequences.
3954
3955		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
3956		- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
3957		- MPC824X: data cache
3958		- PPC4xx:  data cache
3959
3960- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
3961
3962		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
3963		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
3964		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
3965		data is located at the end of the available space
3966		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
3967		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
3968		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
3969		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
3970

3972		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
3973		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
3974		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
3975		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
3976		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

4055		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
4056		by coreboot or similar.

4104		to something your driver can deal with.
4105
4106- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4107		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4108		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing

4113		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
4114
4115- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
4116		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4117		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
4118
4119- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4120		Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4121
4122- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4123		Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
4124		to the given FEC; i. e.
4125			#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
4126		means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4127
4128		When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4129
4130- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4131		The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4132		(so program the FEC to ignore it).
4133
4134- CONFIG_RMII
4135		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4136		Note that this is a global option, we can't
4137		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4138
4139- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4140		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4141		The syntax is:
4142
4143		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4144
4145		Where address/count indicate a memory area
4146		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4147		area should have.
4148
4149- CONFIG_LOOPW
4150		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
4151		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4152
4153- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4154		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4155		"md/mw" commands.
4156		Examples:
4157
4158		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
4159		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4160
4161		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
4162		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4163
4164		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
4165		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
4166
4167- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
4168		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
4169		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4170		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4171		relocate itself into RAM.
4172
4173		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4174		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4175		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4176		these initializations itself.
4177
4178- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
4179		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4180		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4181		compiling a NAND SPL.
4182
4183- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4184		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4185		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4186		previous 4k of the .text section.
4187
4188- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4189		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4190		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4191		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4192		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4193		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4194		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4195		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4196
4197- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4198  CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4199		If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4200		be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4201		conditions but may increase the binary size.
4202
4203- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4204		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4205		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
4206
4207- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4208		Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
4209
4210		NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.
4211
4212Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4213-----------------------------------
4214
4215The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4216loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4217This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4218are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4219within that device.
4220
4221- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4222	The address in the storage device where the firmware is located.  The
4223	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
4224	is also specified.
4225
4226- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
4227	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
4228	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
4229	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
4230	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
4231
4232- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
4233	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
4234	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
4235	virtual address in NOR flash.
4236
4237- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
4238	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
4239	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
4240
4241- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
4242	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
4243	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4244
4245- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
4246	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
4247	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
4248
4249- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
4250	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
4251	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
4252	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
4253	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
4254	master's memory space.
4255
4256Building the Software:
4257======================
4258
4259Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
4260and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
4261all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
4262(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
4263recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
4264which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
4265
4266If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
4267have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
4268you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
4269Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
4270necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
4271
4272	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
4273	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
4274
4275Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
4276      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
4277      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
4278      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
4279
4280       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
4281
4282      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
4283      be executed on computers running Windows.
4284
4285U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
4286sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
4287is done by typing:
4288
4289	make NAME_config
4290
4291where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
4292rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
4293
4294Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
4295      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
4296      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
4297      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
4298      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
4299
4300      make TQM823L_config
4301	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
4302
4303      make TQM823L_LCD_config
4304	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
4305
4306      etc.
4307
4308
4309Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
4310images ready for download to / installation on your system:
4311
4312- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
4313- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
4314- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
4315
4316By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
4317in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
4318this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
4319
43201. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
4321
4322	make O=/tmp/build distclean
4323	make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
4324	make O=/tmp/build all
4325
43262. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
4327
4328	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4329	make distclean
4330	make NAME_config
4331	make all
4332
4333Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
4334variable.
4335
4336
4337Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
4338for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
4339native "make".
4340
4341
4342If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
4343to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
4344steps:
4345
43461.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
4347    "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
4348    Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
43492.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
4350    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
4351    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
43523.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
4353    your board
43543.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
4355    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
43564.  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
43575.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
4358    to be installed on your target system.
43596.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
4360    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
4361
4362
4363Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
4364==============================================================
4365
4366If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
4367or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
4368provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
4369the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
4370official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
4371
4372But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
4373cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
4374the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
4375just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
4376for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
4377select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
4378environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
4379you can type
4380
4381	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4382
4383or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
4384
4385	CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
4386
4387When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
4388U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
4389setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
4390built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
4391<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
4392location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
4393variable. For example:
4394
4395	export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4396	export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
4397	CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4398
4399With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
4400log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
4401during the whole build process.

4456Monitor Commands - Detailed Description:
4457========================================
4458
4459TODO.
4460
4461For now: just type "help <command>".
4462
4463
4464Environment Variables:
4465======================
4466
4467U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
4468can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
4469
4470Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
4471"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
4472without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
4473environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
4474working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
4475environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
4476
4477Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
4478
4479List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
4480
4481  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
4482
4483  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
4484
4485  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
4486
4487  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
4488
4489  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
4490
4491  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4492		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4493		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
4494		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
4495		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
4496		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
4497		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
4498		  bootm_mapsize.
4499
4500  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
4501		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
4502		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
4503		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
4504		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
4505		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
4506		  used otherwise.
4507
4508  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4509		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4510		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
4511		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
4512		  environment variable.
4513
4514  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
4515		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
4516		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
4517
4518  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
4519		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
4520		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
4521		  load any image using TFTP
4522
4523  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
4524		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
4525		  be automatically started (by internally calling
4526		  "bootm")
4527
4528		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
4529		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
4530		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
4531		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
4532		  data.
4533
4534  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
4535		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
4536		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
4537		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
4538		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
4539		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
4540		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
4541		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
4542		  access it during the boot procedure.
4543
4544		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
4545		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
4546		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
4547		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
4548		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
4549		  must be accessible by the kernel.
4550
4551  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
4552		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
4553		  defined.
4554
4555  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
4556		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
4557		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
4558		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
4559		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
4560
4561  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
4562		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4563		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4564		  is usually what you want since it allows for
4565		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4566		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
4567		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
4568		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4569		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4570		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4571		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
4572
4573		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
4574		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4575		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4576		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
4577		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4578		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4579
4580		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4581
4582		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
4583		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
4584		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
4585		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
4586		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
4587		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
4588		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
4589
4590  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4591
4592  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
4593		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
4594
4595  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4596
4597  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4598
4599  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
4600
4601  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
4602
4603  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
4604
4605  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4606
4607  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4608		  For example you can do the following
4609
4610		  => setenv ethact FEC
4611		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
4612		  => setenv ethact SCC
4613		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4614
4615  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4616		  available network interfaces.
4617		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4618
4619  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4620		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
4621		  When set to "once" the network operation will
4622		  fail when all the available network interfaces
4623		  are tried once without success.
4624		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4625		  themselves.
4626
4627  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
4628
4629  tftpsrcport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
4630		  UDP source port.
4631
4632  tftpdstport	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
4633		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
4634
4635  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4636		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4637
4638  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4639		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4640		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4641		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4642		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4643		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4644		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
4645
4646  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
4647		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
4648		  VLAN tagged frames.
4649
4650The following image location variables contain the location of images
4651used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4652not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4653variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4654server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4655loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4656flash or offset in NAND flash.
4657
4658*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4659boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
4660boards use these variables for other purposes.
4661
4662Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
4663-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
4664u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
4665Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
4666device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
4667ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
4668
4669The following environment variables may be used and automatically
4670updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
4671depending the information provided by your boot server:
4672
4673  bootfile	- see above
4674  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
4675  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
4676  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
4677  hostname	- Target hostname
4678  ipaddr	- see above
4679  netmask	- Subnet Mask
4680  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
4681  serverip	- see above
4682
4683
4684There are two special Environment Variables:
4685
4686  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
4687		  as type string and/or serial number
4688  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
4689
4690These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4691the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4692once they have been set once.
4693
4694
4695Further special Environment Variables:
4696
4697  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4698		  with the "version" command. This variable is
4699		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
4700
4701
4702Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
4703only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
4704
4705
4706Callback functions for environment variables:
4707---------------------------------------------
4708
4709For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
4710when their values are changed.  This functionailty allows functions to
4711be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
4712deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
4713effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
4714
4715The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
4716U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
4717
4718These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
4719static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
4720in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
4721associations.  The list must be in the following format:
4722
4723	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
4724	list = entry[,list]
4725
4726If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
4727Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
4728
4729Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
4730with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
4731override any association in the static list. You can define
4732CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
4733".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4734
4735
4736Command Line Parsing:
4737=====================
4738
4739There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
4740the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
4741
4742Old, simple command line parser:
4743--------------------------------
4744
4745- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
4746- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
4747- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
4748- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
4749  for example:
4750	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
4751- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
4752	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
4753
4754Hush shell:
4755-----------
4756
4757- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4758  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4759  until...do...done, ...
4760- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4761  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4762  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4763  command
4764
4765General rules:
4766--------------
4767
4768(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4769    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4770    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4771    executed anyway.
4772
4773(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
4774    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
4775    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4776    variables are not executed.
4777
4778Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4779=======================================
4780
4781Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
4782such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
4783"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
4784
4785Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4786MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4787"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
4788
4789If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4790in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4791ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4792variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
4793
4794o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4795  environment, the SROM's address is used.
4796
4797o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4798  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4799  used.
4800
4801o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4802  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
4803
4804o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4805  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4806  warning is printed.
4807
4808o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4809  is raised.
4810
4811If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
4812will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
4813may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4814The naming convention is as follows:
4815"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
4816
4817Image Formats:
4818==============
4819
4820U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
4821images in two formats:
4822
4823New uImage format (FIT)
4824-----------------------
4825
4826Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
4827to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
4828components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
4829SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
4830
4831
4832Old uImage format
4833-----------------
4834
4835Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
4836preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
4837details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
4838
4839* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
4840  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
4841  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
4842  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
4843  INTEGRITY).
4844* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
4845  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
4846  Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
4847* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
4848* Load Address
4849* Entry Point
4850* Image Name
4851* Image Timestamp
4852
4853The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
4854and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
4855CRC32 checksums.
4856
4857
4858Linux Support:
4859==============
4860
4861Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
4862easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4863U-Boot.
4864
4865U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4866special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4867"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4868instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
4869serves several purposes:
4870
4871- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4872  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4873  Flash memory footprint)
4874
4875- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
4876  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
4877
4878- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4879  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4880  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4881  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4882  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4883  software is easier now.
4884
4885
4886Linux HOWTO:
4887============
4888
4889Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4890---------------------------------------
4891
4892U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4893configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4894(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4895Linux :-).
4896
4897But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
4898
4899Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
4900include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
4901Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
4902and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
4903as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
4904
4905
4906Configuring the Linux kernel:
4907-----------------------------
4908
4909No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
4910device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
4911
4912
4913Building a Linux Image:
4914-----------------------
4915
4916With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
4917not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
4918"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
4919U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
4920which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
4921100% compatible format.
4922
4923Example:
4924
4925	make TQM850L_config
4926	make oldconfig
4927	make dep
4928	make uImage
4929
4930The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
4931encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
4932CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
4933
4934* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
4935
4936* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
4937
4938	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
4939				 -R .note -R .comment \
4940				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
4941
4942* compress the binary image:
4943
4944	gzip -9 linux.bin
4945
4946* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
4947
4948	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
4949		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
4950		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
4951
4952
4953The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
4954with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
4955combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
4956byte header containing information about target architecture,
4957operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
4958stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
4959
4960"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
4961print the header information, or to build new images.
4962
4963In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
4964contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
4965checksum verification:
4966
4967	tools/mkimage -l image
4968	  -l ==> list image header information
4969
4970The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
4971from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
4972
4973	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
4974		      -n name -d data_file image
4975	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
4976	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
4977	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4978	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
4979	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
4980	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
4981	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
4982	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
4983
4984Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
4985address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
4986kernel version:
4987
4988- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
4989- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
4990
4991So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
4992
4993	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
4994	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
4995	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
4996	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
4997	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4998	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4999	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5000	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5001	Load Address: 0x00000000
5002	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5003
5004To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
5005
5006	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
5007	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5008	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5009	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
5010	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
5011	Load Address: 0x00000000
5012	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5013
5014NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
5015speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
5016needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
5017need to be uncompressed:
5018
5019	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
5020	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
5021	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
5022	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
5023	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
5024	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
5025	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
5026	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
5027	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
5028	Load Address: 0x00000000
5029	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5030
5031
5032Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
5033when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
5034
5035	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
5036	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
5037	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
5038	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
5039	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
5040	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
5041	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
5042	Load Address: 0x00000000
5043	Entry Point:  0x00000000
5044
5045
5046Installing a Linux Image:
5047-------------------------
5048
5049To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5050you must convert the image to S-Record format:
5051
5052	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
5053
5054The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5055image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5056address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5057specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5058command.
5059
5060Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
5061TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
5062
5063	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
5064
5065	.......... done
5066	Erased 8 sectors
5067
5068	=> loads 40100000
5069	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5070	~>examples/image.srec
5071	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
5072	...
5073	15989 15990 15991 15992
5074	[file transfer complete]
5075	[connected]
5076	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
5077
5078
5079You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
5080this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
5081corruption happened:
5082
5083	=> imi 40100000
5084
5085	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...

5091	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
5092
5093
5094Boot Linux:
5095-----------
5096
5097The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
5098memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
5099of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
5100parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
5101"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
5102
5103
5104	=> printenv bootargs
5105	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
5106
5107	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
5108
5109	=> printenv bootargs
5110	bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

5129the memory addresses of both the kernel and the initrd image (PPBCOOT

5180First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section
5181titled "Linux Kernel Interface" above for a more in depth explanation. The
5182following is an example of how to start a kernel and pass an updated
5183flat device tree:

5226More About U-Boot Image Types:
5227------------------------------
5228
5229U-Boot supports the following image types:
5230
5231   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
5232	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
5233	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
5234	the Standalone Program.
5235   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
5236	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
5237	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
5238	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
5239	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
5240   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
5241	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
5242	being started.
5243   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
5244	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
5245	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
5246	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
5247	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
5248	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
5249
5250	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
5251	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
5252	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
5253	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
5254	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
5255	a multiple of 4 bytes).
5256
5257   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
5258	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
5259	flash memory.
5260
5261   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
5262	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
5263	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
5264	as command interpreter.
5265
5266Booting the Linux zImage:
5267-------------------------
5268
5269On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
5270using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
5271as the syntax of "bootm" command.
5272
5273Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
5274kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
5275address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
5276format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
5277
5278
5279Standalone HOWTO:
5280=================
5281
5282One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
5283run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
5284U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
5285
5286Two simple examples are included with the sources:
5287
5288"Hello World" Demo:
5289-------------------
5290
5291'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
5292application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
5293It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
5294like that:
5295
5296	=> loads
5297	## Ready for S-Record download ...
5298	~>examples/hello_world.srec
5299	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
5300	[file transfer complete]
5301	[connected]
5302	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
5303
5304	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
5305	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
5306	Hello World
5307	argc = 7
5308	argv[0] = "40004"
5309	argv[1] = "Hello"
5310	argv[2] = "World!"
5311	argv[3] = "This"
5312	argv[4] = "is"
5313	argv[5] = "a"
5314	argv[6] = "test."
5315	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
5316	Hit any key to exit ...
5317
5318	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
5319
5320Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
5321handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
5322Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
5323The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
5324character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
5325controlled by the following keys:
5326
5327	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
5328	b - enable interrupts and start timer
5329	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
5330	q - quit application

5367Minicom warning:
5368================

5370Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
5371"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
5372consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
5373Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
5374especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
5375use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
5376http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
5377for help with kermit.
5378
5379
5380Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
5381configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
5382
5383	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
5384	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N
5385	Y  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r	 N    D	   Y	   N	  N

5388NetBSD Notes:
5389=============
5390
5391Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
5392(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
5393
5394Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
5395NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
5396need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
5397Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
5398attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
5399missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
5400
5401	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
5402	# mkdir powerpc
5403	# ln -s powerpc machine
5404	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
5405	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
5406
5407Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
5408and U-Boot include files.
5409
5410Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
5411stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
5412proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
5413tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
5414meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz

5417Implementation Internals:
5418=========================
5419
5420The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
5421implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
5422inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
5423hardware.
5424
5425
5426Initial Stack, Global Data:
5427---------------------------
5428
5429The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
5430starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
5431system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
5432This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
5433is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
5434at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
5435options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
5436models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
5437MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
5438locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
5439
5440	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
5441	U-Boot mailing list:
5442
5443	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
5444	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
5445	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
5446	...
5447
5448	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
5449	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
5450	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
5451	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
5452	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
5453	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
5454	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
5455	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
5456
5457	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
5458	is another option for the system designer to use as an
5459	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
5460	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
5461	board designers haven't used it for something that would
5462	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
5463	used.
5464
5465	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
5466	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
5467	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
5468	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
5469	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
5470	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
5471	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
5472	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
5473	you get the config right.

5477
5478It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
5479code for the initialization procedures:
5480
5481* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
5482  to write it.
5483
5484* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
5485  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
5486  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
5487
5488* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
5489  that.
5490
5491Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
5492normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
5493turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
5494simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
5495functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
5496functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
5497the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
5498place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
5499reserve for this purpose.
5500
5501When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
5502relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
5503GCC's implementation.
5504
5505For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
5506	R1:	stack pointer
5507	R2:	reserved for system use
5508	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
5509	R5-R10: parameter passing
5510	R13:	small data area pointer
5511	R30:	GOT pointer
5512	R31:	frame pointer
5513
5514	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
5515	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
5516	going back and forth between asm and C)
5517
5518    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
5519
5520    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
5521    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
5522    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
5523    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
5524    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
5525    624 text + 127 data).
5526
5527On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
5528	http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
5529
5530    ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
5531
5532On ARM, the following registers are used:
5533
5534	R0:	function argument word/integer result
5535	R1-R3:	function argument word
5536	R9:	GOT pointer
5537	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking if enabled)
5538	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
5539	R12:	temporary workspace
5540	R13:	stack pointer
5541	R14:	link register
5542	R15:	program counter
5543
5544    ==> U-Boot will use R8 to hold a pointer to the global data
5545
5546On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
5547	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
5548
5549    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
5550
5551    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
5552    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
5553
5554On NDS32, the following registers are used:
5555
5556	R0-R1:	argument/return
5557	R2-R5:	argument
5558	R15:	temporary register for assembler
5559	R16:	trampoline register
5560	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
5561	R29:	global pointer (GP)
5562	R30:	link register (LP)
5563	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
5564	PC:	program counter (PC)
5565
5566    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
5567
5568NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
5569or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
5570
5571Memory Management:
5572------------------
5573
5574U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5575MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5576
5577The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5578controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5579memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5580physical memory banks.
5581
5582U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5583TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5584booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5585to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
5586memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5587configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5588Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5589
5590Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5591of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5592
5593So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5594this:
5595
5596	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5597	      :
5598	0x0000 1FFF
5599	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5600	      :
5601	      :
5602
5603	      :
5604	      :
5605	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5606	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5607	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5608	      :
5609	0x00FD FFFF
5610	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5611	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5612	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5613	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5614
5615
5616System Initialization:
5617----------------------
5618
5619In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
5620(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5621configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
5622To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5623To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5624initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5625which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
5626part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
5627the caches and the SIU.
5628
5629Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5630preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5631(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5632on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5633programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5634simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5635banks.
5636
5637When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
5638different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5639bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
56400x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5641contiguous memory starting from 0.
5642
5643Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5644and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5645Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5646pages, and the final stack is set up.
5647
5648Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5649until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5650running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5651new address in RAM.

5728Coding Standards:
5729-----------------
5730
5731All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
5732coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
5733"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
5734
5735Source files originating from a different project (for example the
5736MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
5737reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
5738sources.
5739
5740Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
5741Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
5742in your code.
5743
5744Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
5745- remove any trailing white space
5746- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
5747- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
5748- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
5749- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
5750
5751Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
5752with a request to reformat the changes.
5753
5754
5755Submitting Patches:
5756-------------------
5757
5758Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
5759establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
5760may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
5761
5762Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
5763
5764Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
5765see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
5766
5767When you send a patch, please include the following information with
5768it:
5769
5770* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
5771  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
5772  patch actually fixes something.
5773
5774* For new features: a description of the feature and your
5775  implementation.
5776
5777* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
5778
5779* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
5780
5781* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add this
5782  board to the MAINTAINERS file, too.
5783
5784* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5785  document these in the README file.
5786
5787* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5788  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
5789  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
5790  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5791  with some other mail clients.
5792
5793  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5794  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5795  GNU diff.
5796
5797  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5798  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5799  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
5800  affected files).
5801
5802  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5803  and compressed attachments must not be used.
5804
5805* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
5806  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
5807
5808* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
5809  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
5810
5811
5812Notes:
5813
5814* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
5815  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5816  for any of the boards.
5817
5818* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5819  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5820  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
5821
5822* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5823  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5824  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5825  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5826  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5827  modification.
5828
5829* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
5830  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
5831  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
5832  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
5833
