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

the 226rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible. 227 228There are two classes of configuration variables: 229 230* Configuration _OPTIONS_: 231 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with 232 "CONFIG_". 233 234* Configuration _SETTINGS_: 235 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if 236 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with 237 "CONFIG_SYS_". 238 239Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even 240identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to 241do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic 242links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards 243as an example here. 244 245 246Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: 247--------------------------------------------------- 248 249For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default 250configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config". 251 252Example: For a TQM823L module type: 253 254 cd u-boot 255 make TQM823L_config 256 257For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well; 258e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent 259directory according to the instructions in cogent/README. 260 261 262Configuration Options: 263---------------------- 264 265Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all 266such information is kept in a configuration file 267"include/configs/<board_name>.h". 268 269Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in 270"include/configs/TQM823L.h". 271 272 273Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux 274kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to 275build a config tool - later. 276 277 278The following options need to be configured: 279 280- CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX. 281 282- Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS. 283 284- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined) 285 Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002 286 287- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 288 Define exactly one of 289 CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD 290--- FIXME --- not tested yet: 291 CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P, 292 CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50 293 294- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 295 Define exactly one of 296 CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102 297 298- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 299 Define one or more of 300 CONFIG_CMA302 301 302- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined) 303 Define one or more of 304 CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on 305 the LCD display every second with 306 a "rotator" |\-/|\-/ 307 308- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined) 309 CONFIG_ADSTYPE 310 Possible values are: 311 CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS - original MPC8260ADS 312 CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS - MPC8266ADS 313 CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS - PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR 314 CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS - MPC8272ADS 315 316- Marvell Family Member 317 CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable 318 multiple fs option at one time 319 for marvell soc family 320 321- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined) 322 Define exactly one of 323 CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245 324 325- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU) 326 CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if 327 get_gclk_freq() cannot work 328 e.g. if there is no 32KHz 329 reference PIT/RTC clock 330 CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK 331 or XTAL/EXTAL) 332 333- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU): 334 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN 335 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX 336 CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT 337 See doc/README.MPC866 338 339 CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK 340 341 Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead 342 of relying on the correctness of the configured 343 values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure 344 the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note 345 that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz 346 RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN) 347 348 CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE 349 350 Define this option if you want to enable the 351 ICache only when Code runs from RAM. 352 353- 85xx CPU Options: 354 CONFIG_SYS_PPC64 355 356 Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements 357 the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR 358 compliance, among other possible reasons. 359 360 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV 361 362 Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the 363 system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ 364 devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc. 365 366 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT 367 368 Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device 369 tree nodes for the given platform. 370 371 CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB 372 373 Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work 374 around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger 375 support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where 376 breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this 377 symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this 378 purpose. 379 380 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 381 382 Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set, 383 then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and 384 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set. 385 386 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV 387 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional) 388 389 Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR) 390 for which the A004510 workaround should be applied. 391 392 The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision 393 of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus 394 p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls 395 whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set. 396 397 See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about 398 this erratum. 399 400 CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND 401 Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only 402 requred during NOR boot. 403 404 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY 405 406 This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600 407 according to the A004510 workaround. 408 409 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR 410 This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is 411 connected exclusively to the DSP cores. 412 413 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR 414 This value denotes start offset of M2 memory 415 which is directly connected to the DSP core. 416 417 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR 418 This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly 419 connected to the DSP core. 420 421 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT 422 This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space. 423 424 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_EMU 425 Specify emulator support for DDR. Some DDR features such as 426 deskew training are not available. 427 428- Generic CPU options: 429 CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN 430 431 Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those 432 values is arch specific. 433 434- Intel Monahans options: 435 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO 436 437 Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator 438 ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core 439 frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz. 440 441 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO 442 443 Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator 444 ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and 445 2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied 446 by this value. 447 448- MIPS CPU options: 449 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET 450 451 Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack 452 pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before 453 relocation. 454 455 CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE 456 457 Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU. 458 See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h. 459 Possible values are: 460 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA 461 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA 462 CONF_CM_UNCACHED 463 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT 464 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE 465 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW 466 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW 467 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED 468 469 CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG 470 471 Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. 472 See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S. 473 474 CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES 475 476 Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq 477 XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to 478 be swapped if a flash programmer is used. 479 480- ARM options: 481 CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH 482 483 Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not 484 clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15. 485 486 CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD 487 488 Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction 489 set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides 490 better code density. For ARM architectures that support 491 Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by 492 GCC. 493 494 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044 495 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230 496 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622 497 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472 498 499 If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early 500 during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the 501 workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection 502 exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not 503 set these options unless they apply! 504 505- CPU timer options: 506 CONFIG_SYS_HZ 507 508 The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer(). 509 get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG 510 option must be set to 1000. 511 512- Linux Kernel Interface: 513 CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ 514 515 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz 516 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux 517 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the 518 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable 519 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot 520 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the 521 Linux kernel. 522 When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of 523 "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the 524 default environment. 525 526 CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only] 527 528 When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions 529 expect it to be in bytes, others in MB. 530 Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes. 531 532 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 533 534 New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be 535 passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware 536 concepts). 537 538 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 539 * New libfdt-based support 540 * Adds the "fdt" command 541 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt 542 543 OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for 544 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 545 OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for 546 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 547 OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency. 548 OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device 549 550 boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC 551 addresses 552 553 CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP 554 555 Board code has addition modification that it wants to make 556 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel 557 558 CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU 559 560 This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot 561 param header, the default value is zero if undefined. 562 563 CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP 564 565 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. 566 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot 567 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, 568 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and 569 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where 570 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. 571 572 CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory] 573 574 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one 575 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type 576 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry 577 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/). 578 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported 579 in a single configuration file and the machine type is 580 runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting. 581 582- vxWorks boot parameters: 583 584 bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following 585 environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname. 586 It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile. 587 588 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name 589 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address 590 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server 591 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters 592 593 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS 594 595 Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret" 596 597 Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride 598 the defaults discussed just above. 599 600- Cache Configuration: 601 CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot 602 CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot 603 CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot 604 605- Cache Configuration for ARM: 606 CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache 607 controller 608 CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310 609 controller register space 610 611- Serial Ports: 612 CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL 613 614 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs. 615 616 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL 617 618 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs. 619 620 CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK 621 622 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to 623 the clock speed of the UARTs. 624 625 CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS 626 627 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board, 628 define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported) 629 port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h 630 631 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR 632 633 Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500) 634 have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set 635 this variable to initialize the extra register. 636 637 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT 638 639 On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage 640 boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this 641 variable to flush the UART at init time. 642 643 644- Console Interface: 645 Depending on board, define exactly one serial port 646 (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2, 647 CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial 648 console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE 649 650 Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial 651 port routines must be defined elsewhere 652 (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...) 653 654 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 655 Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following 656 defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042) 657 VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation 658 (default big endian) 659 VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports 660 rectangle fill 661 (cf. smiLynxEM) 662 VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports 663 bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM) 664 VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns 665 (cols=pitch) 666 VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows 667 VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel 668 VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format 669 (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c) 670 VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address 671 VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct 672 (i.e. i8042_kbd_init()) 673 VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct 674 (i.e. i8042_tstc) 675 VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct 676 (i.e. i8042_getc) 677 CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR cursor drawing on/off 678 (requires blink timer 679 cf. i8042.c) 680 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c) 681 CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME display time/date info in 682 upper right corner 683 (requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE) 684 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in 685 upper left corner 686 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of 687 linux_logo.h for logo. 688 Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 689 CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO 690 additional board info beside 691 the logo 692 693 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support 694 a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control, 695 erase functions and limited graphics rendition control). 696 697 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is 698 default i/o. Serial console can be forced with 699 environment 'console=serial'. 700 701 When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console 702 messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with 703 the "silent" environment variable. See 704 doc/README.silent for more information. 705 706- Console Baudrate: 707 CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps 708 Select one of the baudrates listed in 709 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 710 CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale 711 712- Console Rx buffer length 713 With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define 714 the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC. 715 This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible. 716 If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE 717 must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for 718 the SMC. 719 720- Pre-Console Buffer: 721 Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART 722 initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. 723 Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to 724 buffer any console messages prior to the console being 725 initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 726 bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is 727 a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 728 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the 729 earlier bytes are discarded. 730 731 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if 732 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2 733 734- Safe printf() functions 735 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of 736 the printf() functions. These are defined in 737 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and 738 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes. 739 If this option is not given then these functions will 740 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means 741 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case. 742 743- Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds 744 Delay before automatically booting the default image; 745 set to -1 to disable autoboot. 746 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort 747 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined). 748 749 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that 750 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required. 751 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 752 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN 753 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED 754 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT 755 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 756 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 757 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2 758 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2 759 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK 760 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY 761 762- Autoboot Command: 763 CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 764 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled; 765 define a command string that is automatically executed 766 when no character is read on the console interface 767 within "Boot Delay" after reset. 768 769 CONFIG_BOOTARGS 770 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm 771 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the 772 environment value "bootargs". 773 774 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT 775 The value of these goes into the environment as 776 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used 777 as a convenience, when switching between booting from 778 RAM and NFS. 779 780- Pre-Boot Commands: 781 CONFIG_PREBOOT 782 783 When this option is #defined, the existence of the 784 environment variable "preboot" will be checked 785 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 786 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp. 787 entering interactive mode. 788 789 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is 790 automatically generated or modified. For an example 791 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is 792 modified when the user holds down a certain 793 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when 794 booting the systems 795 796- Serial Download Echo Mode: 797 CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 798 If defined to 1, all characters received during a 799 serial download (using the "loads" command) are 800 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal 801 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take 802 time on others. This setting #define's the initial 803 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable. 804 805- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined) 806 CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE 807 Select one of the baudrates listed in 808 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 809 810- Monitor Functions: 811 Monitor commands can be included or excluded 812 from the build by using the #include files 813 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted 814 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h> 815 and augmenting with additional #define's 816 for wanted commands. 817 818 The default command configuration

write: 924 925 #include "config_cmd_all.h" 926 #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET 927 928 Other Commands: 929 fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 930 931 Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands 932 (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know 933 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data 934 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or 935 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be 936 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other 937 systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an 938 initial stack and some data. 939 940 941 XXX - this list needs to get updated! 942 943- Regular expression support: 944 CONFIG_REGEX 945 If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against 946 the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library, 947 which adds regex support to some commands, as for 948 example "env grep" and "setexpr". 949 950- Device tree: 951 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 952 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree 953 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically 954 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is 955 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device 956 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. 957 958 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can 959 be done using one of the two options below: 960 961 CONFIG_OF_EMBED 962 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree 963 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the 964 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file 965 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through 966 the global data structure as gd->blob. 967 968 CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE 969 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree 970 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific 971 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: 972 973 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin 974 975 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called 976 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can 977 still use the individual files if you need something more 978 exotic. 979 980- Watchdog: 981 CONFIG_WATCHDOG 982 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog 983 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC 984 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 985 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR 986 register. When supported for a specific SoC is 987 available, then no further board specific code should 988 be needed to use it. 989 990 CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG 991 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used 992 SoC, then define this variable and provide board 993 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. 994 995- U-Boot Version: 996 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE 997 If this variable is defined, an environment variable 998 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot 999 version as printed by the "version" command. 1000 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the 1001 next reset. 1002 1003- Real-Time Clock: 1004 1005 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC 1006 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the 1007 following options: 1008 1009 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx 1010 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC 1011 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC 1012 CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC 1013 CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC 1014 CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC 1015 CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC 1016 CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC 1017 CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC 1018 CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC 1019 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337 1020 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on 1021 RV3029 RTC. 1022 1023 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1024 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1025 1026- GPIO Support: 1027 CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO 1028 CONFIG_PCA953X_INFO - enable pca953x info command 1029 1030 The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of 1031 chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of 1032 pins supported by a particular chip. 1033 1034 Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1035 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1036 1037- Timestamp Support: 1038 1039 When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp 1040 (date and time) of an image is printed by image 1041 commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is 1042 automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE . 1043 1044- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported: 1045 Zero or more of the following: 1046 CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table. 1047 CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the 1048 Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc. 1049 CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc. 1050 CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the 1051 bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see 1052 disk/part_efi.c 1053 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table. 1054 1055 If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or 1056 CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at 1057 least one non-MTD partition type as well. 1058 1059- IDE Reset method: 1060 CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several 1061 board configurations files but used nowhere! 1062 1063 CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will 1064 be performed by calling the function 1065 ide_set_reset(int reset) 1066 which has to be defined in a board specific file 1067 1068- ATAPI Support: 1069 CONFIG_ATAPI 1070 1071 Set this to enable ATAPI support. 1072 1073- LBA48 Support 1074 CONFIG_LBA48 1075 1076 Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB 1077 Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA. 1078 Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only' 1079 support disks up to 2.1TB. 1080 1081 CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA: 1082 When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses. 1083 Default is 32bit. 1084 1085- SCSI Support: 1086 At the moment only there is only support for the 1087 SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define 1088 CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it. 1089 1090 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and 1091 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID * 1092 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the 1093 maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target 1094 devices. 1095 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz) 1096 1097 The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of 1098 SCSI devices found during the last scan. 1099 1100- NETWORK Support (PCI): 1101 CONFIG_E1000 1102 Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips. 1103 1104 CONFIG_E1000_SPI 1105 Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x. 1106 This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one 1107 of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC. 1108 1109 CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC 1110 Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for 1111 example with the "sspi" command. 1112 1113 CONFIG_CMD_E1000 1114 Management command for E1000 devices. When used on devices 1115 with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot. 1116 1117 CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC 1118 default MAC for empty EEPROM after production. 1119 1120 CONFIG_EEPRO100 1121 Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips. 1122 Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM 1123 write routine for first time initialisation. 1124 1125 CONFIG_TULIP 1126 Support for Digital 2114x chips. 1127 Optional CONFIG_TULIP_SELECT_MEDIA for board specific 1128 modem chip initialisation (KS8761/QS6611). 1129 1130 CONFIG_NATSEMI 1131 Support for National dp83815 chips. 1132 1133 CONFIG_NS8382X 1134 Support for National dp8382[01] gigabit chips. 1135 1136- NETWORK Support (other): 1137 1138 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC 1139 Support for AT91RM9200 EMAC. 1140 1141 CONFIG_RMII 1142 Define this to use reduced MII inteface 1143 1144 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC_QUIET 1145 If this defined, the driver is quiet. 1146 The driver doen't show link status messages. 1147 1148 CONFIG_CALXEDA_XGMAC 1149 Support for the Calxeda XGMAC device 1150 1151 CONFIG_LAN91C96 1152 Support for SMSC's LAN91C96 chips. 1153 1154 CONFIG_LAN91C96_BASE 1155 Define this to hold the physical address 1156 of the LAN91C96's I/O space 1157 1158 CONFIG_LAN91C96_USE_32_BIT 1159 Define this to enable 32 bit addressing 1160 1161 CONFIG_SMC91111 1162 Support for SMSC's LAN91C111 chip 1163 1164 CONFIG_SMC91111_BASE 1165 Define this to hold the physical address 1166 of the device (I/O space) 1167 1168 CONFIG_SMC_USE_32_BIT 1169 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1170 1171 CONFIG_SMC_USE_IOFUNCS 1172 Define this to use i/o functions instead of macros 1173 (some hardware wont work with macros) 1174 1175 CONFIG_DRIVER_TI_EMAC 1176 Support for davinci emac 1177 1178 CONFIG_SYS_DAVINCI_EMAC_PHY_COUNT 1179 Define this if you have more then 3 PHYs. 1180 1181 CONFIG_FTGMAC100 1182 Support for Faraday's FTGMAC100 Gigabit SoC Ethernet 1183 1184 CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA 1185 Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY. 1186 Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY. 1187 If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur 1188 wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or 1189 useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit 1190 control registers. This behavior won't affect the 1191 correctnessof 10/100 link speed update. 1192 1193 CONFIG_SMC911X 1194 Support for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x chips 1195 1196 CONFIG_SMC911X_BASE 1197 Define this to hold the physical address 1198 of the device (I/O space) 1199 1200 CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT 1201 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1202 1203 CONFIG_SMC911X_16_BIT 1204 Define this if data bus is 16 bits. If your processor 1205 automatically converts one 32 bit word to two 16 bit 1206 words you may also try CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT. 1207 1208 CONFIG_SH_ETHER 1209 Support for Renesas on-chip Ethernet controller 1210 1211 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_USE_PORT 1212 Define the number of ports to be used 1213 1214 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_PHY_ADDR 1215 Define the ETH PHY's address 1216 1217 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_CACHE_WRITEBACK 1218 If this option is set, the driver enables cache flush. 1219 1220- TPM Support: 1221 CONFIG_TPM 1222 Support TPM devices. 1223 1224 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C 1225 Support for i2c bus TPM devices. Only one device 1226 per system is supported at this time. 1227 1228 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BUS_NUMBER 1229 Define the the i2c bus number for the TPM device 1230 1231 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_SLAVE_ADDRESS 1232 Define the TPM's address on the i2c bus 1233 1234 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BURST_LIMITATION 1235 Define the burst count bytes upper limit 1236 1237 CONFIG_TPM_ATMEL_TWI 1238 Support for Atmel TWI TPM device. Requires I2C support. 1239 1240 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_LPC 1241 Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device 1242 per system is supported at this time. 1243 1244 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS 1245 Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped 1246 to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at 1247 0xfed40000. 1248 1249 CONFIG_CMD_TPM 1250 Add tpm monitor functions. 1251 Requires CONFIG_TPM. If CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS is set, also 1252 provides monitor access to authorized functions. 1253 1254 CONFIG_TPM 1255 Define this to enable the TPM support library which provides 1256 functional interfaces to some TPM commands. 1257 Requires support for a TPM device. 1258 1259 CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS 1260 Define this to enable authorized functions in the TPM library. 1261 Requires CONFIG_TPM and CONFIG_SHA1. 1262 1263- USB Support: 1264 At the moment only the UHCI host controller is 1265 supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define 1266 CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it. 1267 define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard 1268 and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB 1269 storage devices. 1270 Note: 1271 Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives 1272 (TEAC FD-05PUB). 1273 MPC5200 USB requires additional defines: 1274 CONFIG_USB_CLOCK 1275 for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb 1276 CONFIG_PSC3_USB 1277 for USB on PSC3 1278 CONFIG_USB_CONFIG 1279 for differential drivers: 0x00001000 1280 for single ended drivers: 0x00005000 1281 for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100 1282 for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100 1283 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL 1284 May be defined to allow interrupt polling 1285 instead of using asynchronous interrupts 1286 1287 CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the 1288 txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset. 1289 1290 CONFIG_USB_HUB_MIN_POWER_ON_DELAY defines the minimum 1291 interval for usb hub power-on delay.(minimum 100msec) 1292 1293- USB Device: 1294 Define the below if you wish to use the USB console. 1295 Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the 1296 command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and 1297 attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print 1298 it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty 1299 can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to 1300 appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a 1301 Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device. 1302 If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate 1303 a Linux host by 1304 # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID 1305 else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment 1306 variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following 1307 might be defined in YourBoardName.h 1308 1309 CONFIG_USB_DEVICE 1310 Define this to build a UDC device 1311 1312 CONFIG_USB_TTY 1313 Define this to have a tty type of device available to 1314 talk to the UDC device 1315 1316 CONFIG_USBD_HS 1317 Define this to enable the high speed support for usb 1318 device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine 1319 int is_usbd_high_speed(void) 1320 also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll 1321 whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full 1322 speed. 1323 1324 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 1325 Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to 1326 be set to usbtty. 1327 1328 mpc8xx: 1329 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH 1330 Derive USB clock from external clock "blah" 1331 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02 1332 1333 CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH 1334 Derive USB clock from brgclk 1335 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04 1336 1337 If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to 1338 define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h 1339 or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define 1340 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME, 1341 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot 1342 should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host. 1343 1344 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER 1345 Define this string as the name of your company for 1346 - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company" 1347 1348 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME 1349 Define this string as the name of your product 1350 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device" 1351 1352 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 1353 Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB 1354 Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID 1355 to avoid polluting the USB namespace. 1356 - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF 1357 1358 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 1359 Define this as the unique Product ID 1360 for your device 1361 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF 1362 1363- ULPI Layer Support: 1364 The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via 1365 the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY 1366 via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and 1367 the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based 1368 viewport is supported. 1369 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and 1370 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. 1371 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the 1372 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to 1373 the appropriate value in Hz. 1374 1375- MMC Support: 1376 The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To 1377 enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be 1378 accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device 1379 to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is 1380 enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with 1381 the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT. 1382 1383 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF 1384 Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller 1385 1386 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR 1387 Define the base address of MMCIF registers 1388 1389 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK 1390 Define the clock frequency for MMCIF 1391 1392- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support: 1393 CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION 1394 This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class 1395 1396 CONFIG_CMD_DFU 1397 This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have 1398 U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB. This command 1399 requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be 1400 set and define the alt settings to expose to the host. 1401 1402 CONFIG_DFU_MMC 1403 This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU. 1404 1405 CONFIG_DFU_NAND 1406 This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU. 1407 1408 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE 1409 Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the 1410 raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer 1411 configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable 1412 through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable. 1413 1414 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE 1415 When updating files rather than the raw storage device, 1416 we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write 1417 the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define 1418 this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer. 1419 Default is 4 MiB if undefined. 1420 1421- Journaling Flash filesystem support: 1422 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE, 1423 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV 1424 Define these for a default partition on a NAND device 1425 1426 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR, 1427 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS 1428 Define these for a default partition on a NOR device 1429 1430 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART 1431 Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a 1432 function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num) 1433 1434 If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to 1435 #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1 1436 to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you 1437 have not defined a custom partition 1438 1439- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support: 1440 CONFIG_FAT_WRITE 1441 1442 Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a 1443 file in FAT formatted partition. 1444 1445 This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the 1446 user to write files to FAT. 1447 1448CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support 1449 CONFIG_CMD_CBFS 1450 1451 Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot 1452 filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls 1453 and cbfsload. 1454 1455- Keyboard Support: 1456 CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD 1457 1458 Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard 1459 support 1460 1461 CONFIG_I8042_KBD 1462 Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and 1463 GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support. 1464 Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc 1465 for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking. 1466 1467 CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB 1468 Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface. 1469 This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller 1470 which provides key scans on request. 1471 1472- Video support: 1473 CONFIG_VIDEO 1474 1475 Define this to enable video support (for output to 1476 video). 1477 1478 CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000 1479 1480 Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip 1481 1482 CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM 1483 Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The 1484 video output is selected via environment 'videoout' 1485 (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is 1486 assumed. 1487 1488 For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is 1489 selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways 1490 are possible: 1491 - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers. 1492 Following standard modes are supported (* is default): 1493 1494 Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024 1495 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1496 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307 1497 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319 1498 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A 1499 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B 1500 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1501 (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;) 1502 1503 - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed 1504 from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c) 1505 1506 1507 CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806 1508 Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp 1509 and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP 1510 or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP 1511 1512 CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB 1513 Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for 1514 SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU 1515 support, and should also define these other macros: 1516 1517 CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR 1518 CONFIG_VIDEO 1519 CONFIG_CMD_BMP 1520 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 1521 CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR 1522 CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE 1523 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 1524 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO 1525 1526 The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment 1527 variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during 1528 boot. See the documentation file README.video for a 1529 description of this variable. 1530 1531 CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA 1532 1533 Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you 1534 are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer 1535 driver. 1536 1537 1538- Keyboard Support: 1539 CONFIG_KEYBOARD 1540 1541 Define this to enable a custom keyboard support. 1542 This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be 1543 defined in your board-specific files. 1544 The only board using this so far is RBC823. 1545 1546- LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD 1547 1548 Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD 1549 display); also select one of the supported displays 1550 by defining one of these: 1551 1552 CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD: 1553 1554 HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320. 1555 1556 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33: 1557 1558 NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan. 1559 1560 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20 1561 1562 NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480. 1563 Active, color, single scan. 1564 1565 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54 1566 1567 NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480. 1568 Active, color, single scan. 1569 1570 CONFIG_SHARP_16x9 1571 1572 Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan. 1573 It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is. 1574 1575 CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341 1576 1577 Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480. 1578 Active, color, single scan. 1579 1580 CONFIG_HLD1045 1581 1582 HLD1045 display, 640x480. 1583 Active, color, single scan. 1584 1585 CONFIG_OPTREX_BW 1586 1587 Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5 1588 or 1589 Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T 1590 or 1591 Hitachi SP14Q002 1592 1593 320x240. Black & white. 1594 1595 Normally display is black on white background; define 1596 CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted. 1597 1598 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT 1599 1600 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is 1601 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead. 1602 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE 1603 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on 1604 a per-section basis. 1605 1606 CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES 1607 1608 When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of 1609 lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes 1610 the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling 1611 is slow. 1612 1613 CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8 1614 1615 Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD. 1616 1617 CONFIG_I2C_EDID 1618 1619 Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID 1620 information over I2C from an attached LCD display. 1621 1622- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN 1623 1624 If this option is set, the environment is checked for 1625 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display 1626 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD 1627 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address 1628 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The 1629 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This 1630 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is 1631 loaded very quickly after power-on. 1632 1633 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD 1634 1635 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment 1636 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address 1637 (see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses). 1638 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment 1639 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data 1640 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned 1641 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them) 1642 there is no need to set this option. 1643 1644 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN 1645 1646 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned 1647 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the 1648 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as 1649 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it 1650 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also 1651 specify 'm' for centering the image. 1652 1653 Example: 1654 setenv splashpos m,m 1655 => image at center of screen 1656 1657 setenv splashpos 30,20 1658 => image at x = 30 and y = 20 1659 1660 setenv splashpos -10,m 1661 => vertically centered image 1662 at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 1663 1664- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP 1665 1666 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP 1667 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the 1668 splashscreen support or the bmp command. 1669 1670- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8 1671 1672 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images 1673 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the 1674 bmp command. 1675 1676- Do compresssing for memory range: 1677 CONFIG_CMD_ZIP 1678 1679 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method 1680 to compress the specified memory at its best effort. 1681 1682- Compression support: 1683 CONFIG_BZIP2 1684 1685 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed 1686 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip 1687 compressed images are supported. 1688 1689 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so 1690 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should 1691 be at least 4MB. 1692 1693 CONFIG_LZMA 1694 1695 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed 1696 images is included. 1697 1698 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it 1699 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the 1700 formula: 1701 1702 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) 1703 1704 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits 1705 and Literal pos bits. 1706 1707 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, 1708 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a 1709 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is 1710 a very small buffer. 1711 1712 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and 1713 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring 1714 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value). 1715 1716- MII/PHY support: 1717 CONFIG_PHY_ADDR 1718 1719 The address of PHY on MII bus. 1720 1721 CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx) 1722 1723 The clock frequency of the MII bus 1724 1725 CONFIG_PHY_GIGE 1726 1727 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex 1728 detection of gigabit PHY is included. 1729 1730 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY 1731 1732 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 1733 reset before any MII register access is possible. 1734 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay 1735 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A) 1736 1737 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx) 1738 1739 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 1740 command issued before MII status register can be read 1741 1742- Ethernet address: 1743 CONFIG_ETHADDR 1744 CONFIG_ETH1ADDR 1745 CONFIG_ETH2ADDR 1746 CONFIG_ETH3ADDR 1747 CONFIG_ETH4ADDR 1748 CONFIG_ETH5ADDR 1749 1750 Define a default value for Ethernet address to use 1751 for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this 1752 is not determined automatically. 1753 1754- IP address: 1755 CONFIG_IPADDR 1756 1757 Define a default value for the IP address to use for 1758 the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not 1759 determined through e.g. bootp. 1760 (Environment variable "ipaddr") 1761 1762- Server IP address: 1763 CONFIG_SERVERIP 1764 1765 Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP 1766 server to contact when using the "tftboot" command. 1767 (Environment variable "serverip") 1768 1769 CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR 1770 1771 Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr' 1772 for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option) 1773 1774- Gateway IP address: 1775 CONFIG_GATEWAYIP 1776 1777 Defines a default value for the IP address of the 1778 default router where packets to other networks are 1779 sent to. 1780 (Environment variable "gatewayip") 1781 1782- Subnet mask: 1783 CONFIG_NETMASK 1784 1785 Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or 1786 routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP 1787 address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be 1788 forwarded through a router. 1789 (Environment variable "netmask") 1790 1791- Multicast TFTP Mode: 1792 CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP 1793 1794 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per 1795 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets 1796 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet 1797 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a 1798 multicast group. 1799 1800- BOOTP Recovery Mode: 1801 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY 1802 1803 If you have many targets in a network that try to 1804 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all 1805 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same 1806 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery 1807 from a power failure, when all systems will try to 1808 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining 1809 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be 1810 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The 1811 following delays are inserted then: 1812 1813 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec 1814 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec 1815 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec 1816 4th and following 1817 BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec 1818 1819- DHCP Advanced Options: 1820 You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining 1821 CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols: 1822 1823 CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK 1824 CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY 1825 CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME 1826 CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN 1827 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH 1828 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE 1829 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 1830 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 1831 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME 1832 CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER 1833 CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET 1834 CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX 1835 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL 1836 1837 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip 1838 environment variable, not the BOOTP server. 1839 1840 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found 1841 after the configured retry count, the call will fail 1842 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over 1843 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server 1844 is not available. 1845 1846 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS 1847 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more 1848 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. 1849 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS 1850 serverip will be stored in the additional environment 1851 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always 1852 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 1853 is defined. 1854 1855 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable 1856 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they 1857 need the hostname of the DHCP requester. 1858 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content 1859 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as 1860 option 12 to the DHCP server. 1861 1862 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY 1863 1864 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between 1865 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request". 1866 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't 1867 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an 1868 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed 1869 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003 1870 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at 1871 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope 1872 that one of the retries will be successful but note that 1873 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than 1874 this delay. 1875 1876 - Link-local IP address negotiation: 1877 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network 1878 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. 1879 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed 1880 to exist in all environments that the device must operate. 1881 1882 See doc/README.link-local for more information. 1883 1884 - CDP Options: 1885 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID 1886 1887 The device id used in CDP trigger frames. 1888 1889 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX 1890 1891 A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address 1892 of the device. 1893 1894 CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID 1895 1896 A printf format string which contains the ascii name of 1897 the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets 1898 eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc. 1899 1900 CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES 1901 1902 A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities; 1903 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards. 1904 1905 CONFIG_CDP_VERSION 1906 1907 An ascii string containing the version of the software. 1908 1909 CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM 1910 1911 An ascii string containing the name of the platform. 1912 1913 CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER 1914 1915 A 32bit integer sent on the trigger. 1916 1917 CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION 1918 1919 A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the 1920 device in .1 of milliwatts. 1921 1922 CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE 1923 1924 A byte containing the id of the VLAN. 1925 1926- Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED 1927 1928 Several configurations allow to display the current 1929 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink 1930 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as 1931 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and 1932 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running 1933 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux 1934 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this 1935 feature in U-Boot. 1936 1937- CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER 1938 1939 Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support 1940 on those systems that support this (optional) 1941 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. 1942 1943- I2C Support: CONFIG_SYS_I2C 1944 1945 This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use 1946 i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set 1947 CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c 1948 based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See 1949 common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line 1950 interface. 1951 1952 ported i2c driver to the new framework: 1953 - drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c: 1954 - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define 1955 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE 1956 for defining speed and slave address 1957 - activate second bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS2 define 1958 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_2 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_2 1959 for defining speed and slave address 1960 - activate third bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS3 define 1961 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_3 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_3 1962 for defining speed and slave address 1963 - activate fourth bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS4 define 1964 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_4 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_4 1965 for defining speed and slave address 1966 1967 - drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c: 1968 - activate i2c driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_FSL 1969 define CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_OFFSET for setting the register 1970 offset CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SPEED for the i2c speed and 1971 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SLAVE for the slave addr of the first 1972 bus. 1973 - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define 1974 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset 1975 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SPEED for the speed and 1976 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SLAVE for the slave address of the 1977 second bus. 1978 1979 - drivers/i2c/tegra_i2c.c: 1980 - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_TEGRA 1981 - This driver adds 4 i2c buses with a fix speed from 1982 100000 and the slave addr 0! 1983 1984 - drivers/i2c/ppc4xx_i2c.c 1985 - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX 1986 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX_CH0 activate hardware channel 0 1987 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PPC4XX_CH1 activate hardware channel 1 1988 1989 additional defines: 1990 1991 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES 1992 Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you 1993 don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this 1994 is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can 1995 omit this define. 1996 1997 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS 1998 define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware. 1999 if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can 2000 omit this define. 2001 2002 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS 2003 define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected 2004 on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this 2005 define. 2006 2007 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES 2008 hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if 2009 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example 2010 a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and 2011 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9: 2012 2013 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES {{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2014 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \ 2015 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \ 2016 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \ 2017 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \ 2018 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \ 2019 {1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2020 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \ 2021 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \ 2022 } 2023 2024 which defines 2025 bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux 2026 bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1 2027 bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2 2028 bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3 2029 bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4 2030 bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5 2031 bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux 2032 bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1 2033 bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2 2034 2035 If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define. 2036 2037- Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C 2038 2039 NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which 2040 provides the following compelling advantages: 2041 2042 - more than one i2c adapter is usable 2043 - approved multibus support 2044 - better i2c mux support 2045 2046 ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. ** 2047 2048 These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining 2049 CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver 2050 for the selected CPU. 2051 2052 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot 2053 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in 2054 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime 2055 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the 2056 command line interface. 2057 2058 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. 2059 2060 There are several other quantities that must also be 2061 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2062 2063 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED 2064 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus 2065 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie 2066 the CPU's i2c node address). 2067 2068 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx 2069 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node 2070 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See, 2071 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set 2072 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0. 2073 2074 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX 2075 2076 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2077 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2078 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start 2079 commands until the slave device responds. 2080 2081 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2082 2083 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT) 2084 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are 2085 from include/configs/lwmon.h): 2086 2087 I2C_INIT 2088 2089 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C 2090 controller or configure ports. 2091 2092 eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL) 2093 2094 I2C_PORT 2095 2096 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code 2097 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values 2098 are 0..3 for ports A..D. 2099 2100 I2C_ACTIVE 2101 2102 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active 2103 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this 2104 define can be null. 2105 2106 eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA) 2107 2108 I2C_TRISTATE 2109 2110 The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated 2111 (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this 2112 define can be null. 2113 2114 eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA) 2115 2116 I2C_READ 2117 2118 Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high, 2119 false if it is low. 2120 2121 eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0) 2122 2123 I2C_SDA(bit) 2124 2125 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it 2126 is false, it clears it (low). 2127 2128 eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \ 2129 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \ 2130 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA 2131 2132 I2C_SCL(bit) 2133 2134 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it 2135 is false, it clears it (low). 2136 2137 eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \ 2138 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \ 2139 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL 2140 2141 I2C_DELAY 2142 2143 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this 2144 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus 2145 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something 2146 like: 2147 2148 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2) 2149 2150 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA 2151 2152 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h), 2153 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be 2154 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will 2155 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate. 2156 2157 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to 2158 the generic GPIO functions. 2159 2160 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD 2161 2162 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2163 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2164 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access 2165 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the 2166 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin 2167 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a 2168 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c 2169 is run early in the boot sequence. 2170 2171 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT 2172 2173 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is 2174 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in 2175 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() 2176 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus 2177 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c 2178 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of 2179 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus 2180 controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). 2181 2182 CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 2183 2184 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags 2185 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment 2186 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast) 2187 2188 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2189 2190 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which 2191 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is 2192 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command. 2193 Note that bus numbering is zero-based. 2194 2195 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES 2196 2197 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped 2198 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2199 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify 2200 a 1D array of device addresses 2201 2202 e.g. 2203 #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2204 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68} 2205 2206 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus 2207 2208 #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2209 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}} 2210 2211 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1 2212 2213 CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 2214 2215 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD. 2216 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0. 2217 2218 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM 2219 2220 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC. 2221 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0. 2222 2223 CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM 2224 2225 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT. 2226 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0. 2227 2228 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR: 2229 2230 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device. 2231 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for 2232 specified DTT device. 2233 2234 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START 2235 2236 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in 2237 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start 2238 between writing the address pointer and reading the 2239 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour 2240 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C 2241 devices can use either method, but some require one or 2242 the other. 2243 2244- SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI 2245 2246 Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with 2247 SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and 2248 D/As on the SACSng board) 2249 2250 CONFIG_SH_SPI 2251 2252 Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently 2253 only SH7757 is supported. 2254 2255 CONFIG_SPI_X 2256 2257 Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing. 2258 (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X) 2259 2260 CONFIG_SOFT_SPI 2261 2262 Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than 2263 using hardware support. This is a general purpose 2264 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins 2265 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is 2266 defined, the board configuration must define several 2267 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For 2268 an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h. 2269 2270 CONFIG_HARD_SPI 2271 2272 Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads 2273 and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration 2274 must define a list of chip-select function pointers. 2275 Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an 2276 example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h. 2277 2278 CONFIG_MXC_SPI 2279 2280 Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC 2281 SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported. 2282 2283- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA 2284 2285 Enables FPGA subsystem. 2286 2287 CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor> 2288 2289 Enables support for specific chip vendors. 2290 (ALTERA, XILINX) 2291 2292 CONFIG_FPGA_<family> 2293 2294 Enables support for FPGA family. 2295 (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX) 2296 2297 CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT 2298 2299 Specify the number of FPGA devices to support. 2300 2301 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK 2302 2303 Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration. 2304 2305 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY 2306 2307 Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy 2308 status by the configuration function. This option 2309 will require a board or device specific function to 2310 be written. 2311 2312 CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY 2313 2314 If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA 2315 configuration driver. 2316 2317 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC 2318 Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration 2319 2320 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR 2321 2322 Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile 2323 loading. For example, abort during Virtex II 2324 configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which 2325 indicated a CRC error). 2326 2327 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT 2328 2329 Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert 2330 after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II 2331 FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500 2332 ms. 2333 2334 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY 2335 2336 Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during 2337 Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms. 2338 2339 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG 2340 2341 Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is 2342 200 ms. 2343 2344- Configuration Management: 2345 CONFIG_IDENT_STRING 2346 2347 If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot 2348 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION) 2349 2350- Vendor Parameter Protection: 2351 2352 U-Boot considers the values of the environment 2353 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and 2354 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that 2355 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and 2356 protects these variables from casual modification by 2357 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only, 2358 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can 2359 change this behaviour: 2360 2361 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config 2362 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is 2363 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete 2364 these parameters. 2365 2366 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR 2367 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default 2368 Ethernet address is installed in the environment, 2369 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The 2370 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains 2371 read-only.] 2372 2373 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way 2374 for any variable by configuring the type of access 2375 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable 2376 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC. 2377 2378- Protected RAM: 2379 CONFIG_PRAM 2380 2381 Define this variable to enable the reservation of 2382 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten 2383 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of 2384 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite 2385 this default value by defining an environment 2386 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to 2387 reserve. Note that the board info structure will 2388 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is 2389 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will 2390 automatically be defined to hold the amount of 2391 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot 2392 argument to Linux, for instance like that: 2393 2394 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem} 2395 saveenv 2396 2397 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory, 2398 either, which results in a memory region that will 2399 not be affected by reboots. 2400 2401 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic 2402 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that 2403 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the 2404 following board configurations are known to be 2405 "pRAM-clean": 2406 2407 IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL, 2408 HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, 2409 FLAGADM, TQM8260 2410 2411- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB) 2412 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not 2413 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures 2414 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit 2415 machines using physical address extension or similar. 2416 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which 2417 currently only supports clearing the memory. 2418 2419- Error Recovery: 2420 CONFIG_PANIC_HANG 2421 2422 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a 2423 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually. 2424 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded 2425 system where you want the system to reboot 2426 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be 2427 useful during development since you can try to debug 2428 the conditions that lead to the situation. 2429 2430 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT 2431 2432 This variable defines the number of retries for 2433 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP 2434 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a 2435 default value of 5 is used. 2436 2437 CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT 2438 2439 Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds. 2440 2441 CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 2442 2443 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol. 2444 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command, 2445 try longer timeout such as 2446 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL 2447 2448- Command Interpreter: 2449 CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE 2450 2451 Enable auto completion of commands using TAB. 2452 2453 Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet 2454 for the "hush" shell. 2455 2456 2457 CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER 2458 2459 Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from 2460 Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling 2461 powerful command line syntax like 2462 if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||' 2463 constructs ("shell scripts"). 2464 2465 If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour 2466 with a somewhat smaller memory footprint. 2467 2468 2469 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 2470 2471 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is 2472 printed when the command interpreter needs more input 2473 to complete a command. Usually "> ". 2474 2475 Note: 2476 2477 In the current implementation, the local variables 2478 space and global environment variables space are 2479 separated. Local variables are those you define by 2480 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local 2481 variable later on, you have write `$name' or 2482 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable 2483 directly type `$name' at the command prompt. 2484 2485 Global environment variables are those you use 2486 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored 2487 in such a variable, you need to use the run command, 2488 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them. 2489 2490 To store commands and special characters in a 2491 variable, please use double quotation marks 2492 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead 2493 of the backslashes before semicolons and special 2494 symbols. 2495 2496- Commandline Editing and History: 2497 CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING 2498 2499 Enable editing and History functions for interactive 2500 commandline input operations 2501 2502- Default Environment: 2503 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS 2504 2505 Define this to contain any number of null terminated 2506 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of 2507 the default environment compiled into the boot image. 2508 2509 For example, place something like this in your 2510 board's config file: 2511 2512 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \ 2513 "myvar1=value1\0" \ 2514 "myvar2=value2\0" 2515 2516 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the 2517 internal format how the environment is stored by the 2518 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported 2519 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format 2520 will change soon, there is no guarantee either. 2521 You better know what you are doing here. 2522 2523 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is 2524 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset 2525 the environment like the "source" command or the 2526 boot command first. 2527 2528 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG 2529 2530 Define this in order to add variables describing the 2531 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment. 2532 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc. 2533 2534 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined: 2535 2536 - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH 2537 - CONFIG_SYS_CPU 2538 - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD 2539 - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR 2540 - CONFIG_SYS_SOC 2541 2542 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG 2543 2544 Define this in order to add variables describing certain 2545 run-time determined information about the hardware to the 2546 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev. 2547 2548 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT 2549 2550 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is 2551 intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits 2552 that so that the environment is not available until 2553 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 2554 this is instead controlled by the value of 2555 /config/load-environment. 2556 2557- DataFlash Support: 2558 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH 2559 2560 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and 2561 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard 2562 commands cp, md... 2563 2564- Serial Flash support 2565 CONFIG_CMD_SF 2566 2567 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands 2568 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'. 2569 2570 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial 2571 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update 2572 commands. 2573 2574 The following defaults may be provided by the platform 2575 to handle the common case when only a single serial 2576 flash is present on the system. 2577 2578 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier 2579 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select 2580 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h) 2581 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz 2582 2583 CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST 2584 2585 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash 2586 test ('sf test'). 2587 2588 CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg 2589 2590 Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr 2591 support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes. 2592 2593- SystemACE Support: 2594 CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 2595 2596 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE 2597 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address 2598 of the chip must also be defined in the 2599 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example: 2600 2601 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 2602 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000 2603 2604 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type 2605 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls. 2606 2607- TFTP Fixed UDP Port: 2608 CONFIG_TFTP_PORT 2609 2610 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp 2611 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value. 2612 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port 2613 number generator is used. 2614 2615 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply 2616 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't 2617 defined, the normal port 69 is used. 2618 2619 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to 2620 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured 2621 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of 2622 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing 2623 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally. 2624 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall, 2625 but sometimes that is not allowed. 2626 2627- Hashing support: 2628 CONFIG_CMD_HASH 2629 2630 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce 2631 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256). 2632 2633 CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY 2634 2635 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code 2636 size a little. 2637 2638 CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing 2639 CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing 2640 2641 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps 2642 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'. 2643 2644- Signing support: 2645 CONFIG_RSA 2646 2647 This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification 2648 in U-Boot. See doc/uImage/signature for more information. 2649 2650 The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this 2651 option. 2652 2653 2654- Show boot progress: 2655 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS 2656 2657 Defining this option allows to add some board- 2658 specific code (calling a user-provided function 2659 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show 2660 the system's boot progress on some display (for 2661 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment, 2662 the following checkpoints are implemented: 2663 2664- Detailed boot stage timing 2665 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE 2666 Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage 2667 of the boot process. 2668 2669 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT 2670 This is the number of available user bootstage records. 2671 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...) 2672 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed 2673 the limit, recording will stop. 2674 2675 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT 2676 Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this: 2677 2678 Timer summary in microseconds: 2679 Mark Elapsed Stage 2680 0 0 reset 2681 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start 2682 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9 2683 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done 2684 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start 2685 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop 2686 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start 2687 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel 2688 2689 CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE 2690 Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report 2691 and un/stashing of bootstage data. 2692 2693 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT 2694 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage' 2695 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child 2696 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the 2697 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the 2698 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds. 2699 For example: 2700 2701 bootstage { 2702 154 { 2703 name = "board_init_f"; 2704 mark = <3575678>; 2705 }; 2706 170 { 2707 name = "lcd"; 2708 accum = <33482>; 2709 }; 2710 }; 2711 2712 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree. 2713 2714Legacy uImage format: 2715 2716 Arg Where When 2717 1 common/cmd_bootm.c before attempting to boot an image 2718 -1 common/cmd_bootm.c Image header

best matches that of 2874 U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the 2875 most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node. 2876 The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored. 2877 2878 CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE 2879 This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages, 2880 using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See 2881 doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details. 2882 2883- Standalone program support: 2884 CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR 2885 2886 This option defines a board specific value for the 2887 address where standalone program gets loaded, thus 2888 overwriting the architecture dependent default 2889 settings. 2890 2891- Frame Buffer Address: 2892 CONFIG_FB_ADDR 2893 2894 Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific 2895 address for frame buffer. This is typically the case 2896 when using a graphics controller has separate video 2897 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at 2898 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it 2899 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs 2900 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the 2901 configured panel size. 2902 2903 Please see board_init_f function. 2904 2905- Automatic software updates via TFTP server 2906 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP 2907 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX 2908 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX 2909 2910 These options enable and control the auto-update feature; 2911 for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update. 2912 2913- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support) 2914 CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE 2915 2916 Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel. 2917 Needed for mtdparts command support. 2918 2919 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS 2920 2921 Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux 2922 kernel. Needed for UBI support. 2923 2924- UBI support 2925 CONFIG_CMD_UBI 2926 2927 Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted 2928 with the UBI flash translation layer 2929 2930 Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE 2931 2932 CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG 2933 2934 Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing. This leaves 2935 warnings and errors enabled. 2936 2937- UBIFS support 2938 CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS 2939 2940 Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as 2941 UBIFS. UBIFS is read-only in u-boot. 2942 2943 Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO 2944 2945 CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG 2946 2947 Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing. This leaves 2948 warnings and errors enabled. 2949 2950- SPL framework 2951 CONFIG_SPL 2952 Enable building of SPL globally. 2953 2954 CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT 2955 LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary. 2956 2957 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT 2958 Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included. 2959 When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory 2960 used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it. 2961 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 2962 must not be both defined at the same time. 2963 2964 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE 2965 Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and 2966 linker lists sections), BSS excluded. 2967 When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does 2968 not exceed it. 2969 2970 CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE 2971 TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary. 2972 2973 CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE 2974 Address to relocate to. If unspecified, this is equal to 2975 CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done). 2976 2977 CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR 2978 Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary. 2979 2980 CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 2981 Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS. 2982 When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used 2983 by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it. 2984 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE 2985 must not be both defined at the same time. 2986 2987 CONFIG_SPL_STACK 2988 Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use 2989 2990 CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK 2991 Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after 2992 relocation. If unspecified, this is equal to 2993 CONFIG_SPL_STACK. 2994 2995 CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START 2996 Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL. 2997 2998 CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE 2999 The size of the malloc pool used in SPL. 3000 3001 CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK 3002 Enable the SPL framework under common/. This framework 3003 supports MMC, NAND and YMODEM loading of U-Boot and NAND 3004 NAND loading of the Linux Kernel. 3005 3006 CONFIG_SPL_DISPLAY_PRINT 3007 For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information 3008 about the running system. 3009 3010 CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL 3011 Arch init code should be built for a very small image 3012 3013 CONFIG_SPL_LIBCOMMON_SUPPORT 3014 Support for common/libcommon.o in SPL binary 3015 3016 CONFIG_SPL_LIBDISK_SUPPORT 3017 Support for disk/libdisk.o in SPL binary 3018 3019 CONFIG_SPL_I2C_SUPPORT 3020 Support for drivers/i2c/libi2c.o in SPL binary 3021 3022 CONFIG_SPL_GPIO_SUPPORT 3023 Support for drivers/gpio/libgpio.o in SPL binary 3024 3025 CONFIG_SPL_MMC_SUPPORT 3026 Support for drivers/mmc/libmmc.o in SPL binary 3027 3028 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_SECTOR, 3029 CONFIG_SYS_U_BOOT_MAX_SIZE_SECTORS, 3030 CONFIG_SYS_MMC_SD_FAT_BOOT_PARTITION 3031 Address, size and partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from 3032 when the MMC is being used in raw mode. 3033 3034 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR 3035 Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being 3036 used in raw mode (for Falcon mode) 3037 3038 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR, 3039 CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS 3040 Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument 3041 parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode 3042 (for falcon mode) 3043 3044 CONFIG_SPL_FAT_SUPPORT 3045 Support for fs/fat/libfat.o in SPL binary 3046 3047 CONFIG_SPL_FAT_LOAD_PAYLOAD_NAME 3048 Filename to read to load U-Boot when reading from FAT 3049 3050 CONFIG_SPL_FAT_LOAD_KERNEL_NAME 3051 Filename to read to load kernel uImage when reading 3052 from FAT (for Falcon mode) 3053 3054 CONFIG_SPL_FAT_LOAD_ARGS_NAME 3055 Filename to read to load kernel argument parameters 3056 when reading from FAT (for Falcon mode) 3057 3058 CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND 3059 Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that 3060 start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before 3061 continuing (the hardware starts execution after just 3062 loading the first page rather than the full 4K). 3063 3064 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE 3065 Include nand_base.c in the SPL. Requires 3066 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS. 3067 3068 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS 3069 SPL uses normal NAND drivers, not minimal drivers. 3070 3071 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC 3072 Include standard software ECC in the SPL 3073 3074 CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE 3075 Support for NAND boot using simple NAND drivers that 3076 expose the cmd_ctrl() interface. 3077 3078 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT, 3079 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE, 3080 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS, 3081 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE, 3082 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES 3083 Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses 3084 to read U-Boot 3085 3086 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS 3087 Location in NAND to read U-Boot from 3088 3089 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST 3090 Location in memory to load U-Boot to 3091 3092 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE 3093 Size of image to load 3094 3095 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START 3096 Entry point in loaded image to jump to 3097 3098 CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST 3099 Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the 3100 data. This is used for example on davinci plattforms. 3101 3102 CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND 3103 Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the 3104 ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present. 3105 3106 CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT 3107 Support for drivers/serial/libserial.o in SPL binary 3108 3109 CONFIG_SPL_SPI_FLASH_SUPPORT 3110 Support for drivers/mtd/spi/libspi_flash.o in SPL binary 3111 3112 CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUPPORT 3113 Support for drivers/spi/libspi.o in SPL binary 3114 3115 CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE 3116 Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary 3117 3118 CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT 3119 Support for lib/libgeneric.o in SPL binary 3120 3121 CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT 3122 Support for the environment operating in SPL binary 3123 3124 CONFIG_SPL_NET_SUPPORT 3125 Support for the net/libnet.o in SPL binary. 3126 It conflicts with SPL env from storage medium specified by 3127 CONFIG_ENV_IS_xxx but CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE 3128 3129 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO 3130 Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending 3131 the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as 3132 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3133 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3134 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3135 3136 CONFIG_SPL_TARGET 3137 Final target image containing SPL and payload. Some SPLs 3138 use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for 3139 example if more than one image needs to be produced. 3140 3141 CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT 3142 Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of 3143 code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this 3144 option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the 3145 bootm command when booting a FIT image. 3146 3147Modem Support: 3148-------------- 3149 3150[so far only for SMDK2400 boards] 3151 3152- Modem support enable: 3153 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT 3154 3155- RTS/CTS Flow control enable: 3156 CONFIG_HWFLOW 3157 3158- Modem debug support: 3159 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG 3160 3161 Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg()) 3162 for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000. 3163 3164- Interrupt support (PPC): 3165 3166 There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt() 3167 for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu() 3168 for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu() 3169 should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If 3170 CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt 3171 (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero. 3172 timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU 3173 specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led 3174 / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from 3175 general timer_interrupt(). 3176 3177- General: 3178 3179 In the target system modem support is enabled when a 3180 specific key (key combination) is pressed during 3181 power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally 3182 (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from 3183 board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy 3184 function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem 3185 initialization. 3186 3187 If there are no modem init strings in the 3188 environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the 3189 previous output (banner, info printfs) will be 3190 suppressed, though. 3191 3192 See also: doc/README.Modem 3193 3194Board initialization settings: 3195------------------------------ 3196 3197During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions 3198to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup 3199before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the 3200following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is 3201architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c 3202typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). 3203 3204- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() 3205- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() 3206- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() 3207- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() 3208 3209Configuration Settings: 3210----------------------- 3211 3212- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included; 3213 undefine this when you're short of memory. 3214 3215- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default 3216 width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output. 3217 3218- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to 3219 prompt for user input. 3220 3221- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console 3222 3223- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output 3224 3225- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands 3226 3227- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to 3228 the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is 3229 booted 3230 3231- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE: 3232 List of legal baudrate settings for this board. 3233 3234- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET 3235 Suppress display of console information at boot. 3236 3237- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 3238 If the board specific function 3239 extern int overwrite_console (void); 3240 returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the 3241 serial port, else the settings in the environment are used. 3242 3243- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE 3244 Enable the call to overwrite_console(). 3245 3246- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE 3247 Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings. 3248 3249- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END: 3250 Begin and End addresses of the area used by the 3251 simple memory test. 3252 3253- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST: 3254 Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test. 3255 3256- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH: 3257 Scratch address used by the alternate memory test 3258 You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable 3259 3260- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only): 3261 If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, 3262 this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top 3263 (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By 3264 fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed 3265 the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either. 3266 This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux 3267 board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that 3268 recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup 3269 will have to get fixed in Linux additionally. 3270 3271 This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx 3272 CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't 3273 be touched. 3274 3275 WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of 3276 the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case, 3277 then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a 3278 non page size aligned address and this could cause major 3279 problems. 3280 3281- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE: 3282 Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download 3283 3284- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE: 3285 Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here. 3286 3287- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE: 3288 Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a 3289 Cogent motherboard) 3290 3291- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE: 3292 Physical start address of Flash memory. 3293 3294- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE: 3295 Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by 3296 make config files to be same as the text base address 3297 (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as 3298 CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash. 3299 3300- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN: 3301 Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to 3302 determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is 3303 embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate 3304 flash sector. 3305 3306- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN: 3307 Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use. 3308 3309- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN: 3310 Normally compressed uImages are limited to an 3311 uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough, 3312 you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file 3313 to adjust this setting to your needs. 3314 3315- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ: 3316 Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of 3317 the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by 3318 the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if 3319 used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low" 3320 enviroment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case 3321 all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low" 3322 and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment 3323 variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of 3324 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined, 3325 then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead. 3326 3327- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH: 3328 Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the 3329 initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand 3330 is enabled. 3331 3332- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE: 3333 Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between 3334 "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 3335 3336- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD: 3337 Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in 3338 space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 3339 3340- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS: 3341 Max number of Flash memory banks 3342 3343- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT: 3344 Max number of sectors on a Flash chip 3345 3346- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT: 3347 Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms) 3348 3349- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT: 3350 Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms) 3351 3352- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT 3353 Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms) 3354 3355- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT 3356 Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms) 3357 3358- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION 3359 If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used 3360 instead of U-Boot software protection. 3361 3362- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP: 3363 3364 Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory; 3365 without this option such a download has to be 3366 performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2) 3367 copy from RAM to flash. 3368 3369 The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since 3370 you can check if the download worked before you erase 3371 the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is 3372 too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the 3373 downloaded image) this option may be very useful. 3374 3375- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI: 3376 Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the 3377 common flash structure for storing flash geometry. 3378 3379- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER 3380 This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver 3381 in the drivers directory 3382 3383- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD 3384 This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver 3385 in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash 3386 to the MTD layer. 3387 3388- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE 3389 Use buffered writes to flash. 3390 3391- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N 3392 s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered 3393 write commands. 3394 3395- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST 3396 If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't 3397 print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This 3398 is useful, if some of the configured banks are only 3399 optionally available. 3400 3401- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS 3402 If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown 3403 digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80 3404 column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays. 3405 3406- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY 3407 If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared 3408 against the source after the write operation. An error message 3409 will be printed when the contents are not identical. 3410 Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases, 3411 since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier 3412 while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable 3413 this option if you really know what you are doing. 3414 3415- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER: 3416 Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some 3417 Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value 3418 to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all 3419 buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface 3420 on high Ethernet traffic. 3421 Defaults to 4 if not defined. 3422 3423- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES 3424 3425 Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used 3426 internally to store the environment settings. The default 3427 setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most 3428 cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see 3429 lib/hashtable.c for details. 3430 3431- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 3432- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 3433 Enable validation of the values given to enviroment variables when 3434 calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal, 3435 hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined, 3436 the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address. 3437 3438 The format of the list is: 3439 type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m] 3440 access_atribute = [a|r|o|c] 3441 attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute] 3442 entry = variable_name[:attributes] 3443 list = entry[,list] 3444 3445 The type attributes are: 3446 s - String (default) 3447 d - Decimal 3448 x - Hexadecimal 3449 b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF]) 3450 i - IP address 3451 m - MAC address 3452 3453 The access attributes are: 3454 a - Any (default) 3455 r - Read-only 3456 o - Write-once 3457 c - Change-default 3458 3459 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 3460 Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags" 3461 envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. 3462 3463 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 3464 Define this to a list (string) to define validation that 3465 should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags" 3466 environment variable. To override a setting in the static 3467 list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the 3468 ".flags" variable. 3469 3470- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE 3471 If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable 3472 access flags. 3473 3474- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD 3475 This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the 3476 architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards 3477 to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the 3478 arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and 3479 common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture 3480 must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in 3481 its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on 3482 your board please report the problem and send patches! 3483 3484- CONFIG_SYS_SYM_OFFSETS 3485 This is set by architectures that use offsets for link symbols 3486 instead of absolute values. So bss_start is obtained using an 3487 offset _bss_start_ofs from CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, rather than 3488 directly. You should not need to touch this setting. 3489 3490- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only) 3491 This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should 3492 be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how 3493 the value can be calulated on a given board. 3494 3495The following definitions that deal with the placement and management 3496of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the 3497following configurations: 3498 3499- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC: 3500 3501 Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils 3502 may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images. 3503 3504- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH: 3505 3506 Define this if the environment is in flash memory. 3507 3508 a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is 3509 "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This 3510 happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot 3511 sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller 3512 sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a 3513 layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In 3514 such a case you would place the environment in one of the 3515 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With 3516 "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the 3517 environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap 3518 between U-Boot and the environment. 3519 3520 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3521 3522 Offset of environment data (variable area) to the 3523 beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot 3524 type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset 3525 for this sector is given here. 3526 3527 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE. 3528 3529 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3530 3531 This is just another way to specify the start address of 3532 the flash sector containing the environment (instead of 3533 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET). 3534 3535 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: 3536 3537 Size of the sector containing the environment. 3538 3539 3540 b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. 3541 In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for 3542 the environment. 3543 3544 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3545 3546 If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 3547 and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part 3548 of this flash sector for the environment. This saves 3549 memory for the RAM copy of the environment. 3550 3551 It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this 3552 when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, 3553 since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used 3554 for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is 3555 STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view: 3556 updating the environment in flash makes it always 3557 necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes 3558 wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in 3559 RAM, your target system will be dead. 3560 3561 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND 3562 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND 3563 3564 These settings describe a second storage area used to hold 3565 a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is 3566 a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during 3567 a "saveenv" operation. 3568 3569BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the 3570source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds* 3571accordingly! 3572 3573 3574- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM: 3575 3576 Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device 3577 (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the 3578 environment. 3579 3580 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3581 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3582 3583 These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you 3584 want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory 3585 can just be read and written to, without any special 3586 provision. 3587 3588BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early 3589in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the 3590console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or 3591U-Boot will hang. 3592 3593Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the 3594environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to 3595keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv" 3596to save the current settings. 3597 3598 3599- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM: 3600 3601 Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access 3602 device and a driver for it. 3603 3604 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3605 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3606 3607 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the 3608 environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM. 3609 3610 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR: 3611 If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device. 3612 The default address is zero. 3613 3614 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS: 3615 If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a 3616 single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example 3617 would require six bits. 3618 3619 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS: 3620 If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between 3621 page writes. The default is zero milliseconds. 3622 3623 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN: 3624 The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note 3625 that this is NOT the chip address length! 3626 3627 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW: 3628 EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones 3629 like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of 3630 address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit 3631 slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256 3632 byte chips. 3633 3634 Note that we consider the length of the address field to 3635 still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden 3636 in the chip address. 3637 3638 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE: 3639 The size in bytes of the EEPROM device. 3640 3641 - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C 3642 define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your 3643 EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus. 3644 3645 - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 3646 if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over 3647 I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this 3648 EEPROM. For example: 3649 3650 #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 1 3651 3652 EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over 3653 a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3. 3654 3655- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH: 3656 3657 Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you 3658 want to use for the environment. 3659 3660 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3661 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3662 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3663 3664 These three #defines specify the offset and size of the 3665 environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed 3666 at the specified address. 3667 3668- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE: 3669 3670 Define this if you have a remote memory space which you 3671 want to use for the local device's environment. 3672 3673 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3674 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3675 3676 These two #defines specify the address and size of the 3677 environment area within the remote memory space. The 3678 local device can get the environment from remote memory 3679 space by SRIO or PCIE links. 3680 3681BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use 3682"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the 3683environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link, 3684but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface. 3685 3686- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND: 3687 3688 Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use 3689 for the environment. 3690 3691 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3692 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3693 3694 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 3695 area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be 3696 aligned to an erase block boundary. 3697 3698 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 3699 3700 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE 3701 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so 3702 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure 3703 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be 3704 aligned to an erase block boundary. 3705 3706 - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional): 3707 3708 Specifies the length of the region in which the environment 3709 can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's 3710 block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than 3711 are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within 3712 the range to be avoided. 3713 3714 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional): 3715 3716 Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the 3717 environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The 3718 "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset. 3719 Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when 3720 using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB. 3721 3722- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST 3723 3724 Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the 3725 environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to 3726 CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 3727 3728- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI: 3729 3730 Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the 3731 environment. This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment 3732 accesses, which is important on NAND. 3733 3734 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART: 3735 3736 Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI. 3737 3738 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME: 3739 3740 Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the 3741 environment in. 3742 3743 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND: 3744 3745 Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of 3746 the environment in. This will enable redundant environments in UBI. 3747 It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition. 3748 3749 - CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG 3750 - CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG 3751 3752 You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system 3753 when storing the env in UBI. 3754 3755- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC: 3756 3757 Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the 3758 environment. 3759 3760 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV: 3761 3762 Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in. 3763 3764 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional): 3765 3766 Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not 3767 set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be 3768 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition). 3769 3770 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3771 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3772 3773 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 3774 area within the specified MMC device. 3775 3776 If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to 3777 the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated 3778 as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if 3779 your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have 3780 different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the 3781 environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the 3782 maximum possible space before it, to store other data. 3783 3784 These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an 3785 MMC sector boundary. 3786 3787 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 3788 3789 Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to 3790 hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a 3791 valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due 3792 to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation. 3793 3794 This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the 3795 same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET. 3796 3797 This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to 3798 an MMC sector boundary. 3799 3800 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional): 3801 3802 This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is 3803 set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as 3804 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 3805 3806- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET 3807 3808 Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The 3809 area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment 3810 is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte 3811 scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization 3812 calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems 3813 to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the 3814 start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer. 3815 3816Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor 3817has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been 3818created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f() 3819until then to read environment variables. 3820 3821The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor 3822is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working 3823with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is 3824necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the 3825"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't 3826have any device yet where we could complain.] 3827 3828Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if 3829the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you 3830use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment. 3831 3832- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN: 3833 Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED. 3834 3835 Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR 3836 also needs to be defined. 3837 3838- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR: 3839 MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state. 3840 3841- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS: 3842 Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init 3843 and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at 3844 drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving 3845 space for already greatly restricted images, including but not 3846 limited to NAND_SPL configurations. 3847 3848- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO 3849 Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on 3850 when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called 3851 to do this. 3852 3853- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE 3854 Similar to the previous option, but display this information 3855 later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if 3856 present. 3857 3858Low Level (hardware related) configuration options: 3859--------------------------------------------------- 3860 3861- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE: 3862 Cache Line Size of the CPU. 3863 3864- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR: 3865 Default address of the IMMR after system reset. 3866 3867 Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU, 3868 and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of 3869 the IMMR register after a reset. 3870 3871- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT: 3872 Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale 3873 PowerPC SOCs. 3874 3875- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR: 3876 Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically 3877 the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. 3878 3879 CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value, 3880 for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead. 3881 3882- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS: 3883 Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new 3884 physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should 3885 be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the 3886 same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR 3887 is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended 3888 that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros: 3889 3890 #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH 3891 * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW) 3892 3893- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH: 3894 Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically 3895 either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is 3896 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 3897 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 3898 3899- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW: 3900 Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is 3901 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 3902 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 3903 3904- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE: 3905 If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be 3906 forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated. 3907 3908- Floppy Disk Support: 3909 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER 3910 3911 the default drive number (default value 0) 3912 3913 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE 3914 3915 defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers 3916 (default value 1) 3917 3918 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET 3919 3920 defines the offset of register from address. It 3921 depends on which part of the data bus is connected to 3922 the FDC chipset. (default value 0) 3923 3924 If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and 3925 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their 3926 default value. 3927 3928 if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function 3929 fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC 3930 setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board 3931 source code. It is used to make hardware dependant 3932 initializations. 3933 3934- CONFIG_IDE_AHB: 3935 Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI 3936 interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface. 3937 When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to 3938 IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional 3939 registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller 3940 is requierd. 3941 3942- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory. 3943 DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're 3944 doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only] 3945 3946- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR: 3947 3948 Start address of memory area that can be used for 3949 initial data and stack; please note that this must be 3950 writable memory that is working WITHOUT special 3951 initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which 3952 will become available only after programming the 3953 memory controller and running certain initialization 3954 sequences. 3955 3956 U-Boot uses the following memory types: 3957 - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU) 3958 - MPC824X: data cache 3959 - PPC4xx: data cache 3960 3961- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET: 3962 3963 Offset of the initial data structure in the memory 3964 area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually 3965 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial 3966 data is located at the end of the available space 3967 (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - 3968 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just 3969 below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + 3970 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward. 3971 3972 Note: 3973 On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data 3974 cache for initial memory) the address chosen for 3975 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must 3976 point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between 3977 the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space. 3978 3979- CONFIG_SYS_SIUMCR: SIU Module Configuration (11-6) 3980 3981- CONFIG_SYS_SYPCR: System Protection Control (11-9) 3982 3983- CONFIG_SYS_TBSCR: Time Base Status and Control (11-26) 3984 3985- CONFIG_SYS_PISCR: Periodic Interrupt Status and Control (11-31) 3986 3987- CONFIG_SYS_PLPRCR: PLL, Low-Power, and Reset Control Register (15-30) 3988 3989- CONFIG_SYS_SCCR: System Clock and reset Control Register (15-27) 3990 3991- CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM: 3992 SDRAM timing 3993 3994- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA: 3995 periodic timer for refresh 3996 3997- CONFIG_SYS_DER: Debug Event Register (37-47) 3998 3999- FLASH_BASE0_PRELIM, FLASH_BASE1_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_REMAP_OR_AM, 4000 CONFIG_SYS_PRELIM_OR_AM, CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_FLASH, CONFIG_SYS_OR0_REMAP, 4001 CONFIG_SYS_OR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_REMAP, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_PRELIM, 4002 CONFIG_SYS_BR1_PRELIM: 4003 Memory Controller Definitions: BR0/1 and OR0/1 (FLASH) 4004 4005- SDRAM_BASE2_PRELIM, SDRAM_BASE3_PRELIM, SDRAM_MAX_SIZE, 4006 CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM, CONFIG_SYS_OR2_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR2_PRELIM, 4007 CONFIG_SYS_OR3_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR3_PRELIM: 4008 Memory Controller Definitions: BR2/3 and OR2/3 (SDRAM) 4009 4010- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_8K, 4011 CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_8K, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_8COL, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_9COL: 4012 Machine Mode Register and Memory Periodic Timer 4013 Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing) 4014 4015- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4016 enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4017 define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2] 4018 4019- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4020 enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4021 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1] 4022 4023- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4024 enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4025 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4] 4026 4027- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK: 4028 Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful, 4029 wrong setting might damage your board. Read 4030 doc/README.MBX before setting this variable! 4031 4032- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only) 4033 Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post 4034 (Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides 4035 #define'd default value in commproc.h resp. 4036 cpm_8260.h. 4037 4038- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, 4039 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL, 4040 CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK1_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_BUS, 4041 CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_MEM_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, 4042 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_BUS, CPU_PCI_MEMIO_START, 4043 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR1_MASK_ATTRIB, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_LOCAL, 4044 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_IO_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_SIZE, 4045 CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only) 4046 Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set. 4047 4048- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE: 4049 Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not 4050 required. 4051 4052- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY 4053 Only scan through and get the devices on the busses. 4054 Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or 4055 something has already done it, and we don't need to do it 4056 a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted 4057 by coreboot or similar. 4058 4059- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE: 4060 Enable support for indirect PCI bridges. 4061 4062- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO: 4063 Chip has SRIO or not 4064 4065- CONFIG_SRIO1: 4066 Board has SRIO 1 port available 4067 4068- CONFIG_SRIO2: 4069 Board has SRIO 2 port available 4070 4071- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER 4072 Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE 4073 4074- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT: 4075 Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4076 4077- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS: 4078 Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4079 4080- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE: 4081 Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4082 4083- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT 4084 Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using 4085 a 16 bit bus. 4086 Not all NAND drivers use this symbol. 4087 Example of drivers that use it: 4088 - drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c 4089 - drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c 4090 4091- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG 4092 Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined 4093 a default value will be used. 4094 4095- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM 4096 Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common 4097 with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs 4098 4099 SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS 4100 I2C address of the SPD EEPROM 4101 4102- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 4103 If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first 4104 one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve 4105 to something your driver can deal with. 4106 4107- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING 4108 Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with 4109 soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing 4110 parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into 4111 header files or board specific files. 4112 4113- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE 4114 Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr. 4115 4116- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0 4117 Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should 4118 be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3. 4119 4120- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12] 4121 Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor. 4122 4123- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY 4124 Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds 4125 to the given FEC; i. e. 4126 #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4 4127 means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1 4128 4129 When set to -1, means to probe for first available. 4130 4131- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR 4132 The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only). 4133 (so program the FEC to ignore it). 4134 4135- CONFIG_RMII 4136 Enable RMII mode for all FECs. 4137 Note that this is a global option, we can't 4138 have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode. 4139 4140- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY 4141 Add a verify option to the crc32 command. 4142 The syntax is: 4143 4144 => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32> 4145 4146 Where address/count indicate a memory area 4147 and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the 4148 area should have. 4149 4150- CONFIG_LOOPW 4151 Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if 4152 the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4153 4154- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC 4155 Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic 4156 "md/mw" commands. 4157 Examples: 4158 4159 => mdc.b 10 4 500 4160 This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms. 4161 4162 => mwc.l 100 12345678 10 4163 This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms. 4164 4165 This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated 4166 globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4167 4168- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT 4169 [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain 4170 low level initializations (like setting up the memory 4171 controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not 4172 relocate itself into RAM. 4173 4174 Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only 4175 exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some 4176 other boot loader or by a debugger which performs 4177 these initializations itself. 4178 4179- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD 4180 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4181 that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when 4182 compiling a NAND SPL. 4183 4184- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC 4185 Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section 4186 .resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the 4187 previous 4k of the .text section. 4188 4189- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM 4190 Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses 4191 effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard 4192 U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated 4193 to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since 4194 it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all 4195 addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses 4196 to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem(). 4197 4198- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY 4199 CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET 4200 If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will 4201 be used if available. These functions may be faster under some 4202 conditions but may increase the binary size. 4203 4204- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR 4205 If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not 4206 needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot. 4207 4208- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK 4209 Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz). 4210 4211 NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms. 4212 4213Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: 4214----------------------------------- 4215 4216The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the 4217loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. 4218This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros 4219are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address 4220within that device. 4221 4222- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR 4223 The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The 4224 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro 4225 is also specified. 4226 4227- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH 4228 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format 4229 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it 4230 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some 4231 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. 4232 4233- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR 4234 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as 4235 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the 4236 virtual address in NOR flash. 4237 4238- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND 4239 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. 4240 CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. 4241 4242- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC 4243 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC 4244 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 4245 4246- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH 4247 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI 4248 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 4249 4250- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE 4251 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master) 4252 memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which 4253 can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound 4254 window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in 4255 master's memory space. 4256 4257Building the Software: 4258====================== 4259 4260Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments 4261and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support 4262all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all 4263(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we 4264recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK) 4265which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot. 4266 4267If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you 4268have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, 4269you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. 4270Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are 4271necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter: 4272 4273 $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- 4274 $ export CROSS_COMPILE 4275 4276Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in 4277 the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain 4278 (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW 4279 toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: 4280 4281 $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools 4282 4283 Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can 4284 be executed on computers running Windows. 4285 4286U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the 4287sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This 4288is done by typing: 4289 4290 make NAME_config 4291 4292where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu- 4293rations; see boards.cfg for supported names. 4294 4295Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if 4296 additional information is available from the board vendor; for 4297 instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard) 4298 or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features" 4299 when choosing the configuration, i. e. 4300 4301 make TQM823L_config 4302 - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support 4303 4304 make TQM823L_LCD_config 4305 - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD 4306 4307 etc. 4308 4309 4310Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot 4311images ready for download to / installation on your system: 4312 4313- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image 4314- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format 4315- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format 4316 4317By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved 4318in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change 4319this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory: 4320 43211. Add O= to the make command line invocations: 4322 4323 make O=/tmp/build distclean 4324 make O=/tmp/build NAME_config 4325 make O=/tmp/build all 4326 43272. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location: 4328 4329 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 4330 make distclean 4331 make NAME_config 4332 make all 4333 4334Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment 4335variable. 4336 4337 4338Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so 4339for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of 4340native "make". 4341 4342 4343If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need 4344to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these 4345steps: 4346 43471. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel 4348 "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples. 4349 Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order. 43502. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any 4351 files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least 4352 the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds". 43533. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for 4354 your board 43553. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new 4356 directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. 43574. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name. 43585. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file 4359 to be installed on your target system. 43606. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. 4361 [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] 4362 4363 4364Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: 4365============================================================== 4366 4367If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board 4368or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to 4369provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes 4370the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest 4371official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources. 4372 4373But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- 4374cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of 4375the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, 4376just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot 4377for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can 4378select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE' 4379environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools 4380you can type 4381 4382 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 4383 4384or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type 4385 4386 CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL 4387 4388When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build 4389U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by 4390setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target 4391built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and 4392<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default 4393location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment 4394variable. For example: 4395 4396 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 4397 export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log 4398 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 4399 4400With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build, 4401log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean 4402during the whole build process. 4403 4404 4405See also "U-Boot Porting Guide" below. 4406 4407 4408Monitor Commands - Overview: 4409============================ 4410 4411go - start application at address 'addr' 4412run - run commands in an environment variable 4413bootm - boot application image from memory 4414bootp - boot image via network using BootP/TFTP protocol 4415bootz - boot zImage from memory 4416tftpboot- boot image via network using TFTP protocol 4417 and env variables "ipaddr" and "serverip" 4418 (and eventually "gatewayip") 4419tftpput - upload a file via network using TFTP protocol 4420rarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol 4421diskboot- boot from IDE devicebootd - boot default, i.e., run 'bootcmd' 4422loads - load S-Record file over serial line 4423loadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode) 4424md - memory display 4425mm - memory modify (auto-incrementing) 4426nm - memory modify (constant address) 4427mw - memory write (fill) 4428cp - memory copy 4429cmp - memory compare 4430crc32 - checksum calculation 4431i2c - I2C sub-system 4432sspi - SPI utility commands 4433base - print or set address offset 4434printenv- print environment variables 4435setenv - set environment variables 4436saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage 4437protect - enable or disable FLASH write protection 4438erase - erase FLASH memory 4439flinfo - print FLASH memory information 4440nand - NAND memory operations (see doc/README.nand) 4441bdinfo - print Board Info structure 4442iminfo - print header information for application image 4443coninfo - print console devices and informations 4444ide - IDE sub-system 4445loop - infinite loop on address range 4446loopw - infinite write loop on address range 4447mtest - simple RAM test 4448icache - enable or disable instruction cache 4449dcache - enable or disable data cache 4450reset - Perform RESET of the CPU 4451echo - echo args to console 4452version - print monitor version 4453help - print online help 4454? - alias for 'help' 4455 4456 4457Monitor Commands - Detailed Description: 4458======================================== 4459 4460TODO. 4461 4462For now: just type "help <command>". 4463 4464 4465Environment Variables: 4466====================== 4467 4468U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which 4469can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. 4470 4471Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using 4472"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv" 4473without a value can be used to delete a variable from the 4474environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are 4475working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the 4476environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided. 4477 4478Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables. 4479 4480List of environment variables (most likely not complete): 4481 4482 baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE 4483 4484 bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 4485 4486 bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 4487 4488 bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image 4489 4490 bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP 4491 4492 bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 4493 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 4494 a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed 4495 for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size" 4496 environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is 4497 also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux 4498 kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and 4499 bootm_mapsize. 4500 4501 bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel. 4502 This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it 4503 defines the size of the memory region starting at base 4504 address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel 4505 during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used 4506 as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is 4507 used otherwise. 4508 4509 bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 4510 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 4511 a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region 4512 allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low" 4513 environment variable. 4514 4515 updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used 4516 by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to 4517 documentation in doc/README.update for more details. 4518 4519 autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'), 4520 "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the 4521 configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to 4522 load any image using TFTP 4523 4524 autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp", 4525 "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will 4526 be automatically started (by internally calling 4527 "bootm") 4528 4529 If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the 4530 "bootm" command will be copied to the load address 4531 (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started. 4532 This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary 4533 data. 4534 4535 fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the 4536 flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot. 4537 For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory 4538 at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel 4539 only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you 4540 may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the 4541 device tree blob be copied to the maximum address 4542 of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can 4543 access it during the boot procedure. 4544 4545 If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then 4546 the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this 4547 to work it must reside in writable memory, have 4548 sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to 4549 add the information it needs into it, and the memory 4550 must be accessible by the kernel. 4551 4552 fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened 4553 device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is 4554 defined. 4555 4556 i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 4557 if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast 4558 mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in 4559 initialization code. So, for changes to be effective 4560 it must be saved and board must be reset. 4561 4562 initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images: 4563 If this variable is not set, initrd images will be 4564 copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this 4565 is usually what you want since it allows for 4566 maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to 4567 make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the 4568 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment 4569 variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0". 4570 Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper 4571 address to use (U-Boot will still check that it 4572 does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data). 4573 4574 For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB 4575 RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux, 4576 you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of 4577 the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make 4578 sure that the initrd image is placed in the first 4579 12 MB as well - this can be done with 4580 4581 setenv initrd_high 00c00000 4582 4583 If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an 4584 indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal 4585 for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash 4586 memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the 4587 ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the 4588 boot time on your system, but requires that this 4589 feature is supported by your Linux kernel. 4590 4591 ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command 4592 4593 loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp", 4594 "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot" 4595 4596 loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 4597 4598 serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command 4599 4600 bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 4601 4602 bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 4603 4604 bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 4605 4606 ethprime - controls which interface is used first. 4607 4608 ethact - controls which interface is currently active. 4609 For example you can do the following 4610 4611 => setenv ethact FEC 4612 => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC 4613 => setenv ethact SCC 4614 => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC 4615 4616 ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all 4617 available network interfaces. 4618 It just stays at the currently selected interface. 4619 4620 netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will 4621 either succeed or fail without retrying. 4622 When set to "once" the network operation will 4623 fail when all the available network interfaces 4624 are tried once without success. 4625 Useful on scripts which control the retry operation 4626 themselves. 4627 4628 npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode 4629 4630 silent_linux - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by 4631 changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be 4632 made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If 4633 unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console 4634 is silent. 4635 4636 tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's 4637 UDP source port. 4638 4639 tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP 4640 destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69. 4641 4642 tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set, 4643 we use the TFTP server's default block size 4644 4645 tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli- 4646 seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines 4647 when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to 4648 be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds. 4649 Lowering this value may make downloads succeed 4650 faster in networks with high packet loss rates or 4651 with unreliable TFTP servers. 4652 4653 vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over 4654 Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q 4655 VLAN tagged frames. 4656 4657The following image location variables contain the location of images 4658used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is 4659not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment 4660variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP 4661server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be 4662loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR 4663flash or offset in NAND flash. 4664 4665*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some 4666boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some 4667boards use these variables for other purposes. 4668 4669Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location 4670----- --------- ----------- -------------- 4671u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr 4672Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr 4673device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr 4674ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr 4675 4676The following environment variables may be used and automatically 4677updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"), 4678depending the information provided by your boot server: 4679 4680 bootfile - see above 4681 dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server 4682 dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server 4683 gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use 4684 hostname - Target hostname 4685 ipaddr - see above 4686 netmask - Subnet Mask 4687 rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server 4688 serverip - see above 4689 4690 4691There are two special Environment Variables: 4692 4693 serial# - contains hardware identification information such 4694 as type string and/or serial number 4695 ethaddr - Ethernet address 4696 4697These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of 4698the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables 4699once they have been set once. 4700 4701 4702Further special Environment Variables: 4703 4704 ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed 4705 with the "version" command. This variable is 4706 readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE). 4707 4708 4709Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take 4710only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-). 4711 4712 4713Callback functions for environment variables: 4714--------------------------------------------- 4715 4716For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change 4717when their values are changed. This functionailty allows functions to 4718be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or 4719deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side 4720effect to happen or for the change to be rejected. 4721 4722The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the 4723U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code. 4724 4725These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The 4726static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC 4727in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of 4728associations. The list must be in the following format: 4729 4730 entry = variable_name[:callback_name] 4731 list = entry[,list] 4732 4733If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted. 4734Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list. 4735 4736Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable 4737with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will 4738override any association in the static list. You can define 4739CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the 4740".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. 4741 4742 4743Command Line Parsing: 4744===================== 4745 4746There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot: 4747the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell: 4748 4749Old, simple command line parser: 4750-------------------------------- 4751 4752- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands) 4753- several commands on one line, separated by ';' 4754- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax 4755- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\', 4756 for example: 4757 setenv bootcmd bootm \${address} 4758- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example: 4759 setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off' 4760 4761Hush shell: 4762----------- 4763 4764- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like 4765 if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done, 4766 until...do...done, ... 4767- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv 4768 commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax 4769 "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run" 4770 command 4771 4772General rules: 4773-------------- 4774 4775(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run" 4776 command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and 4777 one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be 4778 executed anyway. 4779 4780(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e. 4781 calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing 4782 command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining 4783 variables are not executed. 4784 4785Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces: 4786======================================= 4787 4788Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports 4789such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a 4790"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows: 4791 4792Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding 4793MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0), 4794"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ... 4795 4796If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance 4797in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon- 4798ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment 4799variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means: 4800 4801o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the 4802 environment, the SROM's address is used. 4803 4804o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the 4805 environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is 4806 used. 4807 4808o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and 4809 both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used. 4810 4811o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the 4812 addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a 4813 warning is printed. 4814 4815o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error 4816 is raised. 4817 4818If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses 4819will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This 4820may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable. 4821The naming convention is as follows: 4822"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc. 4823 4824Image Formats: 4825============== 4826 4827U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) 4828images in two formats: 4829 4830New uImage format (FIT) 4831----------------------- 4832 4833Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar 4834to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple 4835components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by 4836SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory. 4837 4838 4839Old uImage format 4840----------------- 4841 4842Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything, 4843preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for 4844details; basically, the header defines the following image properties: 4845 4846* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, 4847 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks, 4848 LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY; 4849 Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS, 4850 INTEGRITY). 4851* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, 4852 IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; 4853 Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC). 4854* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2) 4855* Load Address 4856* Entry Point 4857* Image Name 4858* Image Timestamp 4859 4860The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header 4861and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by 4862CRC32 checksums. 4863 4864 4865Linux Support: 4866============== 4867 4868Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application 4869easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of 4870U-Boot. 4871 4872U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some 4873special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any 4874"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image; 4875instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation 4876serves several purposes: 4877 4878- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone 4879 applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the 4880 Flash memory footprint) 4881 4882- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because 4883 lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot 4884 4885- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd" 4886 images; of course this also means that different kernel images can 4887 be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't 4888 have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just 4889 change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the 4890 software is easier now. 4891 4892 4893Linux HOWTO: 4894============ 4895 4896Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems: 4897--------------------------------------- 4898 4899U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to 4900configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware 4901(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to 4902Linux :-). 4903 4904But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot). 4905 4906Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance 4907include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board 4908Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h, 4909and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value 4910as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR. 4911 4912 4913Configuring the Linux kernel: 4914----------------------------- 4915 4916No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root 4917device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system. 4918 4919 4920Building a Linux Image: 4921----------------------- 4922 4923With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are 4924not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target 4925"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by 4926U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target, 4927which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a 4928100% compatible format. 4929 4930Example: 4931 4932 make TQM850L_config 4933 make oldconfig 4934 make dep 4935 make uImage 4936 4937The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to 4938encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information, 4939CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing: 4940 4941* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format): 4942 4943* convert the kernel into a raw binary image: 4944 4945 ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \ 4946 -R .note -R .comment \ 4947 -S vmlinux linux.bin 4948 4949* compress the binary image: 4950 4951 gzip -9 linux.bin 4952 4953* package compressed binary image for U-Boot: 4954 4955 mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \ 4956 -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \ 4957 -d linux.bin.gz uImage 4958 4959 4960The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use 4961with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or 4962combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64 4963byte header containing information about target architecture, 4964operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time 4965stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc. 4966 4967"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and 4968print the header information, or to build new images. 4969 4970In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information 4971contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes 4972checksum verification: 4973 4974 tools/mkimage -l image 4975 -l ==> list image header information 4976 4977The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image 4978from a "data file" which is used as image payload: 4979 4980 tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \ 4981 -n name -d data_file image 4982 -A ==> set architecture to 'arch' 4983 -O ==> set operating system to 'os' 4984 -T ==> set image type to 'type' 4985 -C ==> set compression type 'comp' 4986 -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex) 4987 -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex) 4988 -n ==> set image name to 'name' 4989 -d ==> use image data from 'datafile' 4990 4991Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load 4992address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the 4993kernel version: 4994 4995- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C, 4996- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000. 4997 4998So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read: 4999 5000 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5001 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \ 5002 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \ 5003 > examples/uImage.TQM850L 5004 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5005 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5006 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5007 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5008 Load Address: 0x00000000 5009 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5010 5011To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption): 5012 5013 -> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L 5014 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5015 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5016 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5017 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5018 Load Address: 0x00000000 5019 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5020 5021NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade 5022speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this 5023needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not 5024need to be uncompressed: 5025 5026 -> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz 5027 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5028 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \ 5029 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \ 5030 > examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed 5031 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5032 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5033 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) 5034 Data Size: 792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB 5035 Load Address: 0x00000000 5036 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5037 5038 5039Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file 5040when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk: 5041 5042 -> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \ 5043 > -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \ 5044 > -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd 5045 Image Name: Simple Ramdisk Image 5046 Created: Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000 5047 Image Type: PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed) 5048 Data Size: 566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB 5049 Load Address: 0x00000000 5050 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5051 5052 5053Installing a Linux Image: 5054------------------------- 5055 5056To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface, 5057you must convert the image to S-Record format: 5058 5059 objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec 5060 5061The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot 5062image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to 5063address 0x00000000.

Usually these programs 5244 will install their own set of exception handlers, device 5245 drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot 5246 expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU. 5247 "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their 5248 parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is 5249 being started. 5250 "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS 5251 (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like 5252 RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want 5253 to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot 5254 server provides just a single image file, but you want to get 5255 for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image. 5256 5257 "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each 5258 image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network 5259 byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0". 5260 Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by 5261 one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to 5262 a multiple of 4 bytes). 5263 5264 "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like 5265 U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to 5266 flash memory. 5267 5268 "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by 5269 U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially 5270 useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush) 5271 as command interpreter. 5272 5273Booting the Linux zImage: 5274------------------------- 5275 5276On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done 5277using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same 5278as the syntax of "bootm" command. 5279 5280Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply 5281kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the 5282address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following 5283format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>". 5284 5285 5286Standalone HOWTO: 5287================= 5288 5289One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and 5290run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of 5291U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services. 5292 5293Two simple examples are included with the sources: 5294 5295"Hello World" Demo: 5296------------------- 5297 5298'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo 5299application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot. 5300It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it 5301like that: 5302 5303 => loads 5304 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5305 ~>examples/hello_world.srec 5306 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 5307 [file transfer complete] 5308 [connected] 5309 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 5310 5311 => go 40004 Hello World!

The application can be 5332controlled by the following keys: 5333 5334 ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers 5335 b - enable interrupts and start timer 5336 e - stop timer and disable interrupts 5337 q - quit application 5338 5339 => loads 5340 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5341 ~>examples/timer.srec 5342 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 5343 [file transfer complete] 5344 [connected] 5345 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 5346 5347 => go 40004 5348 ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ... 5349 TIMERS=0xfff00980 5350 Using timer 1 5351 tgcr @ 0xfff00980, tmr @ 0xfff00990, trr @ 0xfff00994, tcr @ 0xfff00998, tcn @ 0xfff0099c, ter @ 0xfff009b0 5352 5353Hit 'b': 5354 [q, b, e, ?] Set interval 1000000 us 5355 Enabling timer 5356Hit '?': 5357 [q, b, e, ?] ........ 5358 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0xef6, ter=0x0 5359Hit '?': 5360 [q, b, e, ?] . 5361 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x2ad4, ter=0x0 5362Hit '?': 5363 [q, b, e, ?] . 5364 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x1efc, ter=0x0 5365Hit '?': 5366 [q, b, e, ?] . 5367 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x169d, ter=0x0 5368Hit 'e': 5369 [q, b, e, ?] ...Stopping timer 5370Hit 'q': 5371 [q, b, e, ?] ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0 5372 5373 5374Minicom warning: 5375================ 5376 5377Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the 5378"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd) 5379consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under 5380Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and 5381especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and 5382use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See 5383http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3. 5384for help with kermit. 5385 5386 5387Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this 5388configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section: 5389 5390 Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red.

This file has to be installed and patched manually: 5407 5408 # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include 5409 # mkdir powerpc 5410 # ln -s powerpc machine 5411 # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h 5412 # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST 5413 5414Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native 5415and U-Boot include files. 5416 5417Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a 5418stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel 5419proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source 5420tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the 5421meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz 5422 5423 5424Implementation Internals: 5425========================= 5426 5427The following is not intended to be a complete description of every 5428implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the 5429inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom 5430hardware. 5431 5432 5433Initial Stack, Global Data: 5434--------------------------- 5435 5436The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot 5437starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to 5438system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet). 5439This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS 5440is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working 5441at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation 5442options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU 5443models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and 5444MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be 5445locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc. 5446 5447 Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the 5448 U-Boot mailing list: 5449 5450 Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)? 5451 From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com> 5452 Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET) 5453 ... 5454 5455 Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it 5456 is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not 5457 require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness 5458 is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of 5459 necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's 5460 beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you 5461 can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and 5462 operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals. 5463 5464 OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It 5465 is another option for the system designer to use as an 5466 initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either 5467 option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your 5468 board designers haven't used it for something that would 5469 cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not 5470 used. 5471 5472 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere 5473 with your processor/board/system design. The default value 5474 you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in 5475 walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger 5476 than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set 5477 it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources 5478 that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in 5479 start.S has been around a while and should work as is when 5480 you get the config right. 5481 5482 -Chris Hallinan 5483 DS4.COM, Inc. 5484 5485It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C 5486code for the initialization procedures: 5487 5488* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt 5489 to write it. 5490 5491* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized 5492 as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali- 5493 zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM). 5494 5495* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like 5496 that. 5497 5498Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use 5499normal global data to share information beween the code. But it 5500turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly 5501simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all 5502functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_ 5503functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of 5504the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we 5505place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we 5506reserve for this purpose. 5507 5508When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the 5509relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by 5510GCC's implementation. 5511 5512For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use: 5513 R1: stack pointer 5514 R2: reserved for system use 5515 R3-R4: parameter passing and return values 5516 R5-R10: parameter passing 5517 R13: small data area pointer 5518 R30: GOT pointer 5519 R31: frame pointer 5520 5521 (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12 5522 is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when 5523 going back and forth between asm and C) 5524 5525 ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data 5526 5527 Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the 5528 address of the global data structure is known at compile time), 5529 but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat 5530 smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on 5531 average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image, 5532 624 text + 127 data). 5533 5534On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here: 5535 http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface 5536 5537 ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data 5538 5539On ARM, the following registers are used: 5540 5541 R0: function argument word/integer result 5542 R1-R3: function argument word 5543 R9: GOT pointer 5544 R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking if enabled) 5545 R11: argument (frame) pointer 5546 R12: temporary workspace 5547 R13: stack pointer 5548 R14: link register 5549 R15: program counter 5550 5551 ==> U-Boot will use R8 to hold a pointer to the global data 5552 5553On Nios II, the ABI is documented here: 5554 http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf 5555 5556 ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data 5557 5558 Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp 5559 to access small data sections, so gp is free. 5560 5561On NDS32, the following registers are used: 5562 5563 R0-R1: argument/return 5564 R2-R5: argument 5565 R15: temporary register for assembler 5566 R16: trampoline register 5567 R28: frame pointer (FP) 5568 R29: global pointer (GP) 5569 R30: link register (LP) 5570 R31: stack pointer (SP) 5571 PC: program counter (PC) 5572 5573 ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data 5574 5575NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope, 5576or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much. 5577 5578Memory Management: 5579------------------ 5580 5581U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the 5582MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection. 5583 5584The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory 5585controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each 5586memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several 5587physical memory banks. 5588 5589U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on 5590TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After 5591booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself 5592to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some 5593memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN 5594configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board 5595Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward). 5596 5597Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB 5598of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF). 5599 5600So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like 5601this: 5602 5603 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code 5604 : 5605 0x0000 1FFF 5606 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use 5607 : 5608 : 5609 5610 : 5611 : 5612 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward) 5613 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data 5614 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena 5615 : 5616 0x00FD FFFF 5617 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code 5618 ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer 5619 ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset) 5620 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM] 5621 5622 5623System Initialization: 5624---------------------- 5625 5626In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point 5627(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset 5628configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory. 5629To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address. 5630To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!) 5631initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs 5632which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked 5633part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, 5634the caches and the SIU. 5635 5636Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a 5637preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries 5638(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash 5639on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is 5640programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a 5641simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM 5642banks. 5643 5644When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of 5645different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first 5646bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address 56470x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create 5648contiguous memory starting from 0. 5649 5650Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area 5651and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board 5652Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM 5653pages, and the final stack is set up. 5654 5655Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment; 5656until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are 5657running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a 5658new address in RAM. 5659 5660 5661U-Boot Porting Guide: 5662---------------------- 5663 5664[Based on messages by Jerry Van Baren in the U-Boot-Users mailing 5665list, October 2002] 5666 5667 5668int main(int argc, char *argv[]) 5669{ 5670 sighandler_t no_more_time; 5671 5672 signal(SIGALRM, no_more_time); 5673 alarm(PROJECT_DEADLINE - toSec (3 * WEEK)); 5674 5675 if (available_money > available_manpower) { 5676 Pay consultant to port U-Boot; 5677 return 0; 5678 } 5679 5680 Download latest U-Boot source; 5681 5682 Subscribe to u-boot mailing list; 5683 5684 if (clueless) 5685 email("Hi, I am new to U-Boot, how do I get started?"); 5686 5687 while (learning) { 5688 Read the README file in the top level directory; 5689 Read http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/Manual; 5690 Read applicable doc/*.README; 5691 Read the source, Luke; 5692 /* find . -name "*.[chS]" | xargs grep -i <keyword> */ 5693 } 5694 5695 if (available_money > toLocalCurrency ($2500)) 5696 Buy a BDI3000; 5697 else 5698 Add a lot of aggravation and time; 5699 5700 if (a similar board exists) { /* hopefully... */ 5701 cp -a board/<similar> board/<myboard> 5702 cp include/configs/<similar>.h include/configs/<myboard>.h 5703 } else { 5704 Create your own board support subdirectory; 5705 Create your own board include/configs/<myboard>.h file; 5706 } 5707 Edit new board/<myboard> files 5708 Edit new include/configs/<myboard>.h 5709 5710 while (!accepted) { 5711 while (!running) { 5712 do { 5713 Add / modify source code; 5714 } until (compiles); 5715 Debug; 5716 if (clueless) 5717 email("Hi, I am having problems..."); 5718 } 5719 Send patch file to the U-Boot email list; 5720 if (reasonable critiques) 5721 Incorporate improvements from email list code review; 5722 else 5723 Defend code as written; 5724 } 5725 5726 return 0; 5727} 5728 5729void no_more_time (int sig) 5730{ 5731 hire_a_guru(); 5732} 5733 5734 5735Coding Standards: 5736----------------- 5737 5738All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel 5739coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script 5740"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory. 5741 5742Source files originating from a different project (for example the 5743MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not 5744reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those 5745sources. 5746 5747Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in 5748Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//) 5749in your code. 5750 5751Please also stick to the following formatting rules: 5752- remove any trailing white space 5753- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces 5754- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds 5755- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files 5756- do not add trailing empty lines to source files 5757 5758Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned 5759with a request to reformat the changes. 5760 5761 5762Submitting Patches: 5763------------------- 5764 5765Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to 5766establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules 5767may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff. 5768 5769Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details. 5770 5771Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>; 5772see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot 5773 5774When you send a patch, please include the following information with 5775it: 5776 5777* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes 5778 this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the 5779 patch actually fixes something. 5780 5781* For new features: a description of the feature and your 5782 implementation. 5783 5784* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch) 5785 5786* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file 5787 5788* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add this 5789 board to the MAINTAINERS file, too. 5790 5791* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to 5792 document these in the README file. 5793 5794* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly* 5795 recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the 5796 "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to 5797 the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems 5798 with some other mail clients. 5799 5800 If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of 5801 diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of 5802 GNU diff. 5803 5804 The current directory when running this command shall be the parent 5805 directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that 5806 your patch includes sufficient directory information for the 5807 affected files). 5808 5809 We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged, 5810 and compressed attachments must not be used. 5811 5812* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several 5813 files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file. 5814 5815* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be 5816 submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset. 5817 5818 5819Notes: 5820 5821* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched 5822 source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported 5823 for any of the boards. 5824 5825* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch 5826 containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be 5827 returned with a request to re-formatting / split it. 5828 5829* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not 5830 add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful! 5831 When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only 5832 (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature 5833 disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your 5834 modification. 5835 5836* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the 5837 u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are 5838 reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches 5839 bigger than the size limit should be avoided. 5840
