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

Regular releases are identified by 121names consisting of the calendar year and month of the release date. 122Additional fields (if present) indicate release candidates or bug fix 123releases in "stable" maintenance trees. 124 125Examples: 126 U-Boot v2009.11 - Release November 2009 127 U-Boot v2009.11.1 - Release 1 in version November 2009 stable tree 128 U-Boot v2010.09-rc1 - Release candiate 1 for September 2010 release 129 130 131Directory Hierarchy: 132==================== 133 134/arch Architecture specific files 135 /arm Files generic to ARM architecture 136 /cpu CPU specific files 137 /arm720t Files specific to ARM 720 CPUs 138 /arm920t Files specific to ARM 920 CPUs 139 /at91 Files specific to Atmel AT91RM9200 CPU 140 /imx Files specific to Freescale MC9328 i.MX CPUs 141 /s3c24x0 Files specific to Samsung S3C24X0 CPUs 142 /arm926ejs Files specific to ARM 926 CPUs 143 /arm1136 Files specific to ARM 1136 CPUs 144 /ixp Files specific to Intel XScale IXP CPUs 145 /pxa Files specific to Intel XScale PXA CPUs 146 /sa1100 Files specific to Intel StrongARM SA1100 CPUs 147 /lib Architecture specific library files 148 /avr32 Files generic to AVR32 architecture 149 /cpu CPU specific files 150 /lib Architecture specific library files 151 /blackfin Files generic to Analog Devices Blackfin architecture 152 /cpu CPU specific files 153 /lib Architecture specific library files 154 /m68k Files generic to m68k architecture 155 /cpu CPU specific files 156 /mcf52x2 Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF52x2 CPUs 157 /mcf5227x Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF5227x CPUs 158 /mcf532x Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF5329 CPUs 159 /mcf5445x Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF5445x CPUs 160 /mcf547x_8x Files specific to Freescale ColdFire MCF547x_8x CPUs 161 /lib Architecture specific library files 162 /microblaze Files generic to microblaze architecture 163 /cpu CPU specific files 164 /lib Architecture specific library files 165 /mips Files generic to MIPS architecture 166 /cpu CPU specific files 167 /mips32 Files specific to MIPS32 CPUs 168 /xburst Files specific to Ingenic XBurst CPUs 169 /lib Architecture specific library files 170 /nds32 Files generic to NDS32 architecture 171 /cpu CPU specific files 172 /n1213 Files specific to Andes Technology N1213 CPUs 173 /lib Architecture specific library files 174 /nios2 Files generic to Altera NIOS2 architecture 175 /cpu CPU specific files 176 /lib Architecture specific library files 177 /openrisc Files generic to OpenRISC architecture 178 /cpu CPU specific files 179 /lib Architecture specific library files 180 /powerpc Files generic to PowerPC architecture 181 /cpu CPU specific files 182 /74xx_7xx Files specific to Freescale MPC74xx and 7xx CPUs 183 /mpc5xx Files specific to Freescale MPC5xx CPUs 184 /mpc5xxx Files specific to Freescale MPC5xxx CPUs 185 /mpc8xx Files specific to Freescale MPC8xx CPUs 186 /mpc824x Files specific to Freescale MPC824x CPUs 187 /mpc8260 Files specific to Freescale MPC8260 CPUs 188 /mpc85xx Files specific to Freescale MPC85xx CPUs 189 /ppc4xx Files specific to AMCC PowerPC 4xx CPUs 190 /lib Architecture specific library files 191 /sh Files generic to SH architecture 192 /cpu CPU specific files 193 /sh2 Files specific to sh2 CPUs 194 /sh3 Files specific to sh3 CPUs 195 /sh4 Files specific to sh4 CPUs 196 /lib Architecture specific library files 197 /sparc Files generic to SPARC architecture 198 /cpu CPU specific files 199 /leon2 Files specific to Gaisler LEON2 SPARC CPU 200 /leon3 Files specific to Gaisler LEON3 SPARC CPU 201 /lib Architecture specific library files 202 /x86 Files generic to x86 architecture 203 /cpu CPU specific files 204 /lib Architecture specific library files 205/api Machine/arch independent API for external apps 206/board Board dependent files 207/common Misc architecture independent functions 208/disk Code for disk drive partition handling 209/doc Documentation (don't expect too much) 210/drivers Commonly used device drivers 211/dts Contains Makefile for building internal U-Boot fdt. 212/examples Example code for standalone applications, etc. 213/fs Filesystem code (cramfs, ext2, jffs2, etc.) 214/include Header Files 215/lib Files generic to all architectures 216 /libfdt Library files to support flattened device trees 217 /lzma Library files to support LZMA decompression 218 /lzo Library files to support LZO decompression 219/net Networking code 220/post Power On Self Test 221/spl Secondary Program Loader framework 222/tools Tools to build S-Record or U-Boot images, etc. 223 224Software Configuration: 225======================= 226 227Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the 228rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible. 229 230There are two classes of configuration variables: 231 232* Configuration _OPTIONS_: 233 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with 234 "CONFIG_". 235 236* Configuration _SETTINGS_: 237 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if 238 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with 239 "CONFIG_SYS_". 240 241Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even 242identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to 243do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic 244links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards 245as an example here. 246 247 248Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: 249--------------------------------------------------- 250 251For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default 252configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config". 253 254Example: For a TQM823L module type: 255 256 cd u-boot 257 make TQM823L_config 258 259For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well; 260e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent 261directory according to the instructions in cogent/README. 262 263 264Configuration Options: 265---------------------- 266 267Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all 268such information is kept in a configuration file 269"include/configs/<board_name>.h". 270 271Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in 272"include/configs/TQM823L.h". 273 274 275Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux 276kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to 277build a config tool - later. 278 279 280The following options need to be configured: 281 282- CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX. 283 284- Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS. 285 286- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined) 287 Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002 288 289- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 290 Define exactly one of 291 CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD 292--- FIXME --- not tested yet: 293 CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P, 294 CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50 295 296- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 297 Define exactly one of 298 CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102 299 300- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) 301 Define one or more of 302 CONFIG_CMA302 303 304- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined) 305 Define one or more of 306 CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on 307 the LCD display every second with 308 a "rotator" |\-/|\-/ 309 310- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined) 311 CONFIG_ADSTYPE 312 Possible values are: 313 CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS - original MPC8260ADS 314 CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS - MPC8266ADS 315 CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS - PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR 316 CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS - MPC8272ADS 317 318- Marvell Family Member 319 CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable 320 multiple fs option at one time 321 for marvell soc family 322 323- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined) 324 Define exactly one of 325 CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245 326 327- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU) 328 CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if 329 get_gclk_freq() cannot work 330 e.g. if there is no 32KHz 331 reference PIT/RTC clock 332 CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK 333 or XTAL/EXTAL) 334 335- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU): 336 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN 337 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX 338 CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT 339 See doc/README.MPC866 340 341 CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK 342 343 Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead 344 of relying on the correctness of the configured 345 values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure 346 the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note 347 that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz 348 RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN) 349 350 CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE 351 352 Define this option if you want to enable the 353 ICache only when Code runs from RAM. 354 355- 85xx CPU Options: 356 CONFIG_SYS_PPC64 357 358 Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements 359 the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR 360 compliance, among other possible reasons. 361 362 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV 363 364 Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the 365 system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ 366 devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc. 367 368 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT 369 370 Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device 371 tree nodes for the given platform. 372 373 CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB 374 375 Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work 376 around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger 377 support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where 378 breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this 379 symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this 380 purpose. 381 382 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 383 384 Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set, 385 then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and 386 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set. 387 388 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV 389 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional) 390 391 Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR) 392 for which the A004510 workaround should be applied. 393 394 The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision 395 of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus 396 p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls 397 whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set. 398 399 See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about 400 this erratum. 401 402 CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND 403 Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only 404 requred during NOR boot. 405 406 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY 407 408 This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600 409 according to the A004510 workaround. 410 411 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR 412 This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is 413 connected exclusively to the DSP cores. 414 415 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR 416 This value denotes start offset of M2 memory 417 which is directly connected to the DSP core. 418 419 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR 420 This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly 421 connected to the DSP core. 422 423 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT 424 This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space. 425 426- Generic CPU options: 427 CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN 428 429 Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those 430 values is arch specific. 431 432 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR 433 Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is 434 found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core 435 SoCs. 436 437 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_ADDR 438 Freescale DDR memory-mapped register base. 439 440 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_EMU 441 Specify emulator support for DDR. Some DDR features such as 442 deskew training are not available. 443 444 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN1 445 Freescale DDR1 controller. 446 447 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN2 448 Freescale DDR2 controller. 449 450 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_GEN3 451 Freescale DDR3 controller. 452 453 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_ARM_GEN3 454 Freescale DDR3 controller for ARM-based SoCs. 455 456 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR1 457 Board config to use DDR1. It can be enabled for SoCs with 458 Freescale DDR1 or DDR2 controllers, depending on the board 459 implemetation. 460 461 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR2 462 Board config to use DDR2. It can be eanbeld for SoCs with 463 Freescale DDR2 or DDR3 controllers, depending on the board 464 implementation. 465 466 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR3 467 Board config to use DDR3. It can be enabled for SoCs with 468 Freescale DDR3 controllers. 469 470- Intel Monahans options: 471 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO 472 473 Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator 474 ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core 475 frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz. 476 477 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO 478 479 Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator 480 ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and 481 2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied 482 by this value. 483 484- MIPS CPU options: 485 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET 486 487 Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack 488 pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before 489 relocation. 490 491 CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE 492 493 Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU. 494 See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h. 495 Possible values are: 496 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA 497 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA 498 CONF_CM_UNCACHED 499 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT 500 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE 501 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW 502 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW 503 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED 504 505 CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG 506 507 Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. 508 See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S. 509 510 CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES 511 512 Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq 513 XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to 514 be swapped if a flash programmer is used. 515 516- ARM options: 517 CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH 518 519 Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not 520 clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15. 521 522 CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD 523 524 Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction 525 set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides 526 better code density. For ARM architectures that support 527 Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by 528 GCC. 529 530 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044 531 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230 532 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622 533 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472 534 535 If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early 536 during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the 537 workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection 538 exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not 539 set these options unless they apply! 540 541- CPU timer options: 542 CONFIG_SYS_HZ 543 544 The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer(). 545 get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG 546 option must be set to 1000. 547 548- Linux Kernel Interface: 549 CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ 550 551 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz 552 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux 553 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the 554 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable 555 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot 556 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the 557 Linux kernel. 558 When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of 559 "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the 560 default environment. 561 562 CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only] 563 564 When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions 565 expect it to be in bytes, others in MB. 566 Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes. 567 568 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 569 570 New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be 571 passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware 572 concepts). 573 574 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 575 * New libfdt-based support 576 * Adds the "fdt" command 577 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt 578 579 OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for 580 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 581 OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for 582 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). 583 OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency. 584 OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device 585 586 boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC 587 addresses 588 589 CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP 590 591 Board code has addition modification that it wants to make 592 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel 593 594 CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU 595 596 This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot 597 param header, the default value is zero if undefined. 598 599 CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP 600 601 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. 602 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot 603 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, 604 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and 605 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where 606 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. 607 608 CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory] 609 610 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one 611 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type 612 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry 613 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/). 614 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported 615 in a single configuration file and the machine type is 616 runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting. 617 618- vxWorks boot parameters: 619 620 bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following 621 environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname. 622 It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile. 623 624 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name 625 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address 626 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server 627 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters 628 629 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS 630 631 Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret" 632 633 Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride 634 the defaults discussed just above. 635 636- Cache Configuration: 637 CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot 638 CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot 639 CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot 640 641- Cache Configuration for ARM: 642 CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache 643 controller 644 CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310 645 controller register space 646 647- Serial Ports: 648 CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL 649 650 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs. 651 652 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL 653 654 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs. 655 656 CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK 657 658 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to 659 the clock speed of the UARTs. 660 661 CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS 662 663 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board, 664 define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported) 665 port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h 666 667 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR 668 669 Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500) 670 have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set 671 this variable to initialize the extra register. 672 673 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT 674 675 On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage 676 boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this 677 variable to flush the UART at init time. 678 679 680- Console Interface: 681 Depending on board, define exactly one serial port 682 (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2, 683 CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial 684 console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE 685 686 Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial 687 port routines must be defined elsewhere 688 (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...) 689 690 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 691 Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following 692 defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042) 693 VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation 694 (default big endian) 695 VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports 696 rectangle fill 697 (cf. smiLynxEM) 698 VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports 699 bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM) 700 VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns 701 (cols=pitch) 702 VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows 703 VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel 704 VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format 705 (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c) 706 VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address 707 VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct 708 (i.e. i8042_kbd_init()) 709 VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct 710 (i.e. i8042_tstc) 711 VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct 712 (i.e. i8042_getc) 713 CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR cursor drawing on/off 714 (requires blink timer 715 cf. i8042.c) 716 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c) 717 CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME display time/date info in 718 upper right corner 719 (requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE) 720 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in 721 upper left corner 722 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of 723 linux_logo.h for logo. 724 Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 725 CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO 726 additional board info beside 727 the logo 728 729 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support 730 a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control, 731 erase functions and limited graphics rendition control). 732 733 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is 734 default i/o. Serial console can be forced with 735 environment 'console=serial'. 736 737 When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console 738 messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with 739 the "silent" environment variable. See 740 doc/README.silent for more information. 741 742 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default 743 is 0x00. 744 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default 745 is 0xa0. 746 747- Console Baudrate: 748 CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps 749 Select one of the baudrates listed in 750 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 751 CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale 752 753- Console Rx buffer length 754 With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define 755 the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC. 756 This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible. 757 If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE 758 must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for 759 the SMC. 760 761- Pre-Console Buffer: 762 Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART 763 initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. 764 Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to 765 buffer any console messages prior to the console being 766 initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 767 bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is 768 a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ 769 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the 770 earlier bytes are discarded. 771 772 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if 773 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2 774 775- Safe printf() functions 776 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of 777 the printf() functions. These are defined in 778 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and 779 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes. 780 If this option is not given then these functions will 781 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means 782 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case. 783 784- Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds 785 Delay before automatically booting the default image; 786 set to -1 to disable autoboot. 787 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort 788 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined). 789 790 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that 791 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required. 792 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 793 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN 794 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED 795 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT 796 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 797 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 798 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2 799 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2 800 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK 801 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY 802 803- Autoboot Command: 804 CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 805 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled; 806 define a command string that is automatically executed 807 when no character is read on the console interface 808 within "Boot Delay" after reset. 809 810 CONFIG_BOOTARGS 811 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm 812 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the 813 environment value "bootargs". 814 815 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT 816 The value of these goes into the environment as 817 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used 818 as a convenience, when switching between booting from 819 RAM and NFS. 820 821- Pre-Boot Commands: 822 CONFIG_PREBOOT 823 824 When this option is #defined, the existence of the 825 environment variable "preboot" will be checked 826 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 827 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp. 828 entering interactive mode. 829 830 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is 831 automatically generated or modified. For an example 832 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is 833 modified when the user holds down a certain 834 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when 835 booting the systems 836 837- Serial Download Echo Mode: 838 CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 839 If defined to 1, all characters received during a 840 serial download (using the "loads" command) are 841 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal 842 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take 843 time on others. This setting #define's the initial 844 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable. 845 846- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined) 847 CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE 848 Select one of the baudrates listed in 849 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. 850 851- Monitor Functions: 852 Monitor commands can be included or excluded 853 from the build by using the #include files 854 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted 855 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h> 856 and augmenting with additional #define's 857 for wanted commands. 858 859 The default command configuration

(flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT 972 973 Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands 974 (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know 975 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data 976 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or 977 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be 978 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other 979 systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an 980 initial stack and some data. 981 982 983 XXX - this list needs to get updated! 984 985- Regular expression support: 986 CONFIG_REGEX 987 If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against 988 the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library, 989 which adds regex support to some commands, as for 990 example "env grep" and "setexpr". 991 992- Device tree: 993 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 994 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree 995 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically 996 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is 997 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device 998 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. 999 1000 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can 1001 be done using one of the two options below: 1002 1003 CONFIG_OF_EMBED 1004 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree 1005 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the 1006 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file 1007 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through 1008 the global data structure as gd->blob. 1009 1010 CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE 1011 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree 1012 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific 1013 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: 1014 1015 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin 1016 1017 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called 1018 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can 1019 still use the individual files if you need something more 1020 exotic. 1021 1022- Watchdog: 1023 CONFIG_WATCHDOG 1024 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog 1025 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC 1026 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 1027 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR 1028 register. When supported for a specific SoC is 1029 available, then no further board specific code should 1030 be needed to use it. 1031 1032 CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG 1033 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used 1034 SoC, then define this variable and provide board 1035 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. 1036 1037- U-Boot Version: 1038 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE 1039 If this variable is defined, an environment variable 1040 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot 1041 version as printed by the "version" command. 1042 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the 1043 next reset. 1044 1045- Real-Time Clock: 1046 1047 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC 1048 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the 1049 following options: 1050 1051 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx 1052 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC 1053 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC 1054 CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC 1055 CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC 1056 CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC 1057 CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC 1058 CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC 1059 CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC 1060 CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC 1061 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337 1062 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on 1063 RV3029 RTC. 1064 1065 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1066 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1067 1068- GPIO Support: 1069 CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO 1070 1071 The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of 1072 chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of 1073 pins supported by a particular chip. 1074 1075 Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface 1076 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. 1077 1078- Timestamp Support: 1079 1080 When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp 1081 (date and time) of an image is printed by image 1082 commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is 1083 automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE . 1084 1085- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported: 1086 Zero or more of the following: 1087 CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table. 1088 CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the 1089 Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc. 1090 CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc. 1091 CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the 1092 bootloader.

When used on devices 1156 with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot. 1157 1158 CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC 1159 default MAC for empty EEPROM after production. 1160 1161 CONFIG_EEPRO100 1162 Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips. 1163 Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM 1164 write routine for first time initialisation. 1165 1166 CONFIG_TULIP 1167 Support for Digital 2114x chips. 1168 Optional CONFIG_TULIP_SELECT_MEDIA for board specific 1169 modem chip initialisation (KS8761/QS6611). 1170 1171 CONFIG_NATSEMI 1172 Support for National dp83815 chips. 1173 1174 CONFIG_NS8382X 1175 Support for National dp8382[01] gigabit chips. 1176 1177- NETWORK Support (other): 1178 1179 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC 1180 Support for AT91RM9200 EMAC. 1181 1182 CONFIG_RMII 1183 Define this to use reduced MII inteface 1184 1185 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC_QUIET 1186 If this defined, the driver is quiet. 1187 The driver doen't show link status messages. 1188 1189 CONFIG_CALXEDA_XGMAC 1190 Support for the Calxeda XGMAC device 1191 1192 CONFIG_LAN91C96 1193 Support for SMSC's LAN91C96 chips. 1194 1195 CONFIG_LAN91C96_BASE 1196 Define this to hold the physical address 1197 of the LAN91C96's I/O space 1198 1199 CONFIG_LAN91C96_USE_32_BIT 1200 Define this to enable 32 bit addressing 1201 1202 CONFIG_SMC91111 1203 Support for SMSC's LAN91C111 chip 1204 1205 CONFIG_SMC91111_BASE 1206 Define this to hold the physical address 1207 of the device (I/O space) 1208 1209 CONFIG_SMC_USE_32_BIT 1210 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1211 1212 CONFIG_SMC_USE_IOFUNCS 1213 Define this to use i/o functions instead of macros 1214 (some hardware wont work with macros) 1215 1216 CONFIG_DRIVER_TI_EMAC 1217 Support for davinci emac 1218 1219 CONFIG_SYS_DAVINCI_EMAC_PHY_COUNT 1220 Define this if you have more then 3 PHYs. 1221 1222 CONFIG_FTGMAC100 1223 Support for Faraday's FTGMAC100 Gigabit SoC Ethernet 1224 1225 CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA 1226 Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY. 1227 Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY. 1228 If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur 1229 wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or 1230 useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit 1231 control registers. This behavior won't affect the 1232 correctnessof 10/100 link speed update. 1233 1234 CONFIG_SMC911X 1235 Support for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x chips 1236 1237 CONFIG_SMC911X_BASE 1238 Define this to hold the physical address 1239 of the device (I/O space) 1240 1241 CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT 1242 Define this if data bus is 32 bits 1243 1244 CONFIG_SMC911X_16_BIT 1245 Define this if data bus is 16 bits. If your processor 1246 automatically converts one 32 bit word to two 16 bit 1247 words you may also try CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT. 1248 1249 CONFIG_SH_ETHER 1250 Support for Renesas on-chip Ethernet controller 1251 1252 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_USE_PORT 1253 Define the number of ports to be used 1254 1255 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_PHY_ADDR 1256 Define the ETH PHY's address 1257 1258 CONFIG_SH_ETHER_CACHE_WRITEBACK 1259 If this option is set, the driver enables cache flush. 1260 1261- TPM Support: 1262 CONFIG_TPM 1263 Support TPM devices. 1264 1265 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C 1266 Support for i2c bus TPM devices. Only one device 1267 per system is supported at this time. 1268 1269 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BUS_NUMBER 1270 Define the the i2c bus number for the TPM device 1271 1272 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_SLAVE_ADDRESS 1273 Define the TPM's address on the i2c bus 1274 1275 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BURST_LIMITATION 1276 Define the burst count bytes upper limit 1277 1278 CONFIG_TPM_ATMEL_TWI 1279 Support for Atmel TWI TPM device. Requires I2C support. 1280 1281 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_LPC 1282 Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device 1283 per system is supported at this time. 1284 1285 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS 1286 Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped 1287 to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at 1288 0xfed40000. 1289 1290 CONFIG_CMD_TPM 1291 Add tpm monitor functions. 1292 Requires CONFIG_TPM. If CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS is set, also 1293 provides monitor access to authorized functions. 1294 1295 CONFIG_TPM 1296 Define this to enable the TPM support library which provides 1297 functional interfaces to some TPM commands. 1298 Requires support for a TPM device. 1299 1300 CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS 1301 Define this to enable authorized functions in the TPM library. 1302 Requires CONFIG_TPM and CONFIG_SHA1. 1303 1304- USB Support: 1305 At the moment only the UHCI host controller is 1306 supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define 1307 CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it. 1308 define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard 1309 and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB 1310 storage devices. 1311 Note: 1312 Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives 1313 (TEAC FD-05PUB). 1314 MPC5200 USB requires additional defines: 1315 CONFIG_USB_CLOCK 1316 for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb 1317 CONFIG_PSC3_USB 1318 for USB on PSC3 1319 CONFIG_USB_CONFIG 1320 for differential drivers: 0x00001000 1321 for single ended drivers: 0x00005000 1322 for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100 1323 for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100 1324 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL 1325 May be defined to allow interrupt polling 1326 instead of using asynchronous interrupts 1327 1328 CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the 1329 txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset. 1330 1331 CONFIG_USB_HUB_MIN_POWER_ON_DELAY defines the minimum 1332 interval for usb hub power-on delay.(minimum 100msec) 1333 1334- USB Device: 1335 Define the below if you wish to use the USB console. 1336 Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the 1337 command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and 1338 attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print 1339 it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty 1340 can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to 1341 appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a 1342 Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device. 1343 If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate 1344 a Linux host by 1345 # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID 1346 else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment 1347 variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following 1348 might be defined in YourBoardName.h 1349 1350 CONFIG_USB_DEVICE 1351 Define this to build a UDC device 1352 1353 CONFIG_USB_TTY 1354 Define this to have a tty type of device available to 1355 talk to the UDC device 1356 1357 CONFIG_USBD_HS 1358 Define this to enable the high speed support for usb 1359 device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine 1360 int is_usbd_high_speed(void) 1361 also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll 1362 whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full 1363 speed. 1364 1365 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 1366 Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to 1367 be set to usbtty. 1368 1369 mpc8xx: 1370 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH 1371 Derive USB clock from external clock "blah" 1372 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02 1373 1374 CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH 1375 Derive USB clock from brgclk 1376 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04 1377 1378 If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to 1379 define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h 1380 or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define 1381 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME, 1382 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot 1383 should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host. 1384 1385 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER 1386 Define this string as the name of your company for 1387 - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company" 1388 1389 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME 1390 Define this string as the name of your product 1391 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device" 1392 1393 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 1394 Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB 1395 Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID 1396 to avoid polluting the USB namespace. 1397 - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF 1398 1399 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 1400 Define this as the unique Product ID 1401 for your device 1402 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF 1403 1404 Some USB device drivers may need to check USB cable attachment. 1405 In this case you can enable following config in BoardName.h: 1406 CONFIG_USB_CABLE_CHECK 1407 This enables function definition: 1408 - usb_cable_connected() in include/usb.h 1409 Implementation of this function is board-specific. 1410 1411- ULPI Layer Support: 1412 The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via 1413 the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY 1414 via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and 1415 the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based 1416 viewport is supported. 1417 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and 1418 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. 1419 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the 1420 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to 1421 the appropriate value in Hz. 1422 1423- MMC Support: 1424 The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To 1425 enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be 1426 accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device 1427 to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is 1428 enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with 1429 the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT. 1430 1431 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF 1432 Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller 1433 1434 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR 1435 Define the base address of MMCIF registers 1436 1437 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK 1438 Define the clock frequency for MMCIF 1439 1440- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support: 1441 CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION 1442 This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class 1443 1444 CONFIG_CMD_DFU 1445 This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have 1446 U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB. This command 1447 requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be 1448 set and define the alt settings to expose to the host. 1449 1450 CONFIG_DFU_MMC 1451 This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU. 1452 1453 CONFIG_DFU_NAND 1454 This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU. 1455 1456 CONFIG_DFU_RAM 1457 This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU. 1458 Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but 1459 allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage, 1460 one that would help mostly the developer. 1461 1462 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE 1463 Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the 1464 raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer 1465 configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable 1466 through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable. 1467 1468 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE 1469 When updating files rather than the raw storage device, 1470 we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write 1471 the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define 1472 this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer. 1473 Default is 4 MiB if undefined. 1474 1475- Journaling Flash filesystem support: 1476 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE, 1477 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV 1478 Define these for a default partition on a NAND device 1479 1480 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR, 1481 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS 1482 Define these for a default partition on a NOR device 1483 1484 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART 1485 Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a 1486 function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num) 1487 1488 If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to 1489 #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1 1490 to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you 1491 have not defined a custom partition 1492 1493- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support: 1494 CONFIG_FAT_WRITE 1495 1496 Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a 1497 file in FAT formatted partition. 1498 1499 This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the 1500 user to write files to FAT. 1501 1502CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support 1503 CONFIG_CMD_CBFS 1504 1505 Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot 1506 filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls 1507 and cbfsload. 1508 1509- Keyboard Support: 1510 CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD 1511 1512 Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard 1513 support 1514 1515 CONFIG_I8042_KBD 1516 Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and 1517 GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support. 1518 Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc 1519 for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking. 1520 1521 CONFIG_CROS_EC_KEYB 1522 Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface. 1523 This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller 1524 which provides key scans on request. 1525 1526- Video support: 1527 CONFIG_VIDEO 1528 1529 Define this to enable video support (for output to 1530 video). 1531 1532 CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000 1533 1534 Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip 1535 1536 CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM 1537 Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The 1538 video output is selected via environment 'videoout' 1539 (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is 1540 assumed. 1541 1542 For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is 1543 selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways 1544 are possible: 1545 - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers. 1546 Following standard modes are supported (* is default): 1547 1548 Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024 1549 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1550 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307 1551 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319 1552 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A 1553 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B 1554 -------------+--------------------------------------------- 1555 (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;) 1556 1557 - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed 1558 from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c) 1559 1560 1561 CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806 1562 Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp 1563 and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP 1564 or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP 1565 1566 CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB 1567 Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for 1568 SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU 1569 support, and should also define these other macros: 1570 1571 CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR 1572 CONFIG_VIDEO 1573 CONFIG_CMD_BMP 1574 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 1575 CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR 1576 CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE 1577 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO 1578 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO 1579 1580 The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment 1581 variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during 1582 boot. See the documentation file README.video for a 1583 description of this variable. 1584 1585 CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA 1586 1587 Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you 1588 are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer 1589 driver. 1590 1591 1592- Keyboard Support: 1593 CONFIG_KEYBOARD 1594 1595 Define this to enable a custom keyboard support. 1596 This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be 1597 defined in your board-specific files. 1598 The only board using this so far is RBC823. 1599 1600- LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD 1601 1602 Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD 1603 display); also select one of the supported displays 1604 by defining one of these: 1605 1606 CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD: 1607 1608 HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320. 1609 1610 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33: 1611 1612 NEC NL6448AC33-18.

Active, color, single scan. 1627 It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is. 1628 1629 CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341 1630 1631 Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480. 1632 Active, color, single scan. 1633 1634 CONFIG_HLD1045 1635 1636 HLD1045 display, 640x480. 1637 Active, color, single scan. 1638 1639 CONFIG_OPTREX_BW 1640 1641 Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5 1642 or 1643 Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T 1644 or 1645 Hitachi SP14Q002 1646 1647 320x240. Black & white. 1648 1649 Normally display is black on white background; define 1650 CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted. 1651 1652 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT 1653 1654 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is 1655 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead. 1656 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE 1657 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on 1658 a per-section basis. 1659 1660 CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES 1661 1662 When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of 1663 lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes 1664 the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling 1665 is slow. 1666 1667 CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8 1668 1669 Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD. 1670 1671 CONFIG_I2C_EDID 1672 1673 Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID 1674 information over I2C from an attached LCD display. 1675 1676- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN 1677 1678 If this option is set, the environment is checked for 1679 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display 1680 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD 1681 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address 1682 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The 1683 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This 1684 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is 1685 loaded very quickly after power-on. 1686 1687 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD 1688 1689 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment 1690 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address 1691 (see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses). 1692 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment 1693 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data 1694 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned 1695 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them) 1696 there is no need to set this option. 1697 1698 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN 1699 1700 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned 1701 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the 1702 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as 1703 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it 1704 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also 1705 specify 'm' for centering the image. 1706 1707 Example: 1708 setenv splashpos m,m 1709 => image at center of screen 1710 1711 setenv splashpos 30,20 1712 => image at x = 30 and y = 20 1713 1714 setenv splashpos -10,m 1715 => vertically centered image 1716 at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 1717 1718- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP 1719 1720 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP 1721 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the 1722 splashscreen support or the bmp command. 1723 1724- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8 1725 1726 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images 1727 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the 1728 bmp command. 1729 1730- Do compresssing for memory range: 1731 CONFIG_CMD_ZIP 1732 1733 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method 1734 to compress the specified memory at its best effort. 1735 1736- Compression support: 1737 CONFIG_GZIP 1738 1739 Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images. 1740 1741 CONFIG_BZIP2 1742 1743 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed 1744 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip 1745 compressed images are supported. 1746 1747 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so 1748 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should 1749 be at least 4MB. 1750 1751 CONFIG_LZMA 1752 1753 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed 1754 images is included. 1755 1756 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it 1757 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the 1758 formula: 1759 1760 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) 1761 1762 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits 1763 and Literal pos bits. 1764 1765 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, 1766 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a 1767 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is 1768 a very small buffer. 1769 1770 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and 1771 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring 1772 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value). 1773 1774 CONFIG_LZO 1775 1776 If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images 1777 is included. 1778 1779- MII/PHY support: 1780 CONFIG_PHY_ADDR 1781 1782 The address of PHY on MII bus. 1783 1784 CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx) 1785 1786 The clock frequency of the MII bus 1787 1788 CONFIG_PHY_GIGE 1789 1790 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex 1791 detection of gigabit PHY is included. 1792 1793 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY 1794 1795 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 1796 reset before any MII register access is possible. 1797 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay 1798 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A) 1799 1800 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx) 1801 1802 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after 1803 command issued before MII status register can be read 1804 1805- Ethernet address: 1806 CONFIG_ETHADDR 1807 CONFIG_ETH1ADDR 1808 CONFIG_ETH2ADDR 1809 CONFIG_ETH3ADDR 1810 CONFIG_ETH4ADDR 1811 CONFIG_ETH5ADDR 1812 1813 Define a default value for Ethernet address to use 1814 for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this 1815 is not determined automatically. 1816 1817- IP address: 1818 CONFIG_IPADDR 1819 1820 Define a default value for the IP address to use for 1821 the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not 1822 determined through e.g. bootp. 1823 (Environment variable "ipaddr") 1824 1825- Server IP address: 1826 CONFIG_SERVERIP 1827 1828 Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP 1829 server to contact when using the "tftboot" command. 1830 (Environment variable "serverip") 1831 1832 CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR 1833 1834 Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr' 1835 for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option) 1836 1837- Gateway IP address: 1838 CONFIG_GATEWAYIP 1839 1840 Defines a default value for the IP address of the 1841 default router where packets to other networks are 1842 sent to. 1843 (Environment variable "gatewayip") 1844 1845- Subnet mask: 1846 CONFIG_NETMASK 1847 1848 Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or 1849 routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP 1850 address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be 1851 forwarded through a router. 1852 (Environment variable "netmask") 1853 1854- Multicast TFTP Mode: 1855 CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP 1856 1857 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per 1858 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets 1859 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet 1860 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a 1861 multicast group. 1862 1863- BOOTP Recovery Mode: 1864 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY 1865 1866 If you have many targets in a network that try to 1867 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all 1868 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same 1869 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery 1870 from a power failure, when all systems will try to 1871 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining 1872 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be 1873 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The 1874 following delays are inserted then: 1875 1876 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec 1877 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec 1878 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec 1879 4th and following 1880 BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec 1881 1882- DHCP Advanced Options: 1883 You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining 1884 CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols: 1885 1886 CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK 1887 CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY 1888 CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME 1889 CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN 1890 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH 1891 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE 1892 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 1893 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 1894 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME 1895 CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER 1896 CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET 1897 CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX 1898 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL 1899 1900 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip 1901 environment variable, not the BOOTP server. 1902 1903 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found 1904 after the configured retry count, the call will fail 1905 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over 1906 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server 1907 is not available. 1908 1909 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS 1910 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more 1911 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. 1912 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS 1913 serverip will be stored in the additional environment 1914 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always 1915 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 1916 is defined. 1917 1918 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable 1919 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they 1920 need the hostname of the DHCP requester. 1921 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content 1922 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as 1923 option 12 to the DHCP server. 1924 1925 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY 1926 1927 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between 1928 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request". 1929 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't 1930 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an 1931 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed 1932 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003 1933 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at 1934 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope 1935 that one of the retries will be successful but note that 1936 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than 1937 this delay. 1938 1939 - Link-local IP address negotiation: 1940 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network 1941 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. 1942 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed 1943 to exist in all environments that the device must operate. 1944 1945 See doc/README.link-local for more information. 1946 1947 - CDP Options: 1948 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID 1949 1950 The device id used in CDP trigger frames. 1951 1952 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX 1953 1954 A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address 1955 of the device. 1956 1957 CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID 1958 1959 A printf format string which contains the ascii name of 1960 the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets 1961 eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc. 1962 1963 CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES 1964 1965 A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities; 1966 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards. 1967 1968 CONFIG_CDP_VERSION 1969 1970 An ascii string containing the version of the software. 1971 1972 CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM 1973 1974 An ascii string containing the name of the platform. 1975 1976 CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER 1977 1978 A 32bit integer sent on the trigger. 1979 1980 CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION 1981 1982 A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the 1983 device in .1 of milliwatts. 1984 1985 CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE 1986 1987 A byte containing the id of the VLAN. 1988 1989- Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED 1990 1991 Several configurations allow to display the current 1992 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink 1993 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as 1994 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and 1995 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running 1996 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux 1997 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this 1998 feature in U-Boot. 1999 2000 Additional options: 2001 2002 CONFIG_GPIO_LED 2003 The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin. 2004 In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a 2005 status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED 2006 to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary. 2007 2008 CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE 2009 Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which 2010 case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and 2011 GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state. 2012 In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined 2013 with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity. 2014 2015- CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER 2016 2017 Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support 2018 on those systems that support this (optional) 2019 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. 2020 2021- I2C Support: CONFIG_SYS_I2C 2022 2023 This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use 2024 i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set 2025 CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c 2026 based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See 2027 common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line 2028 interface. 2029 2030 ported i2c driver to the new framework: 2031 - drivers/i2c/soft_i2c.c: 2032 - activate first bus with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT define 2033 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE 2034 for defining speed and slave address 2035 - activate second bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS2 define 2036 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_2 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_2 2037 for defining speed and slave address 2038 - activate third bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS3 define 2039 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_3 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_3 2040 for defining speed and slave address 2041 - activate fourth bus with I2C_SOFT_DECLARATIONS4 define 2042 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SPEED_4 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT_SLAVE_4 2043 for defining speed and slave address 2044 2045 - drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c: 2046 - activate i2c driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_FSL 2047 define CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_OFFSET for setting the register 2048 offset CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SPEED for the i2c speed and 2049 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C_SLAVE for the slave addr of the first 2050 bus. 2051 - If your board supports a second fsl i2c bus, define 2052 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_OFFSET for the register offset 2053 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SPEED for the speed and 2054 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_I2C2_SLAVE for the slave address of the 2055 second bus. 2056 2057 - drivers/i2c/tegra_i2c.c: 2058 - activate this driver with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_TEGRA 2059 - This driver adds 4 i2c buses with a fix speed from 2060 100000 and the slave addr 0!

2133 2134 additional defines: 2135 2136 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES 2137 Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you 2138 don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this 2139 is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can 2140 omit this define. 2141 2142 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS 2143 define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware. 2144 if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can 2145 omit this define. 2146 2147 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS 2148 define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected 2149 on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this 2150 define. 2151 2152 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES 2153 hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if 2154 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example 2155 a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and 2156 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9: 2157 2158 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES {{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2159 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \ 2160 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \ 2161 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \ 2162 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \ 2163 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \ 2164 {1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ 2165 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \ 2166 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \ 2167 } 2168 2169 which defines 2170 bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux 2171 bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1 2172 bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2 2173 bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3 2174 bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4 2175 bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5 2176 bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux 2177 bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1 2178 bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2 2179 2180 If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define. 2181 2182- Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C 2183 2184 NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which 2185 provides the following compelling advantages: 2186 2187 - more than one i2c adapter is usable 2188 - approved multibus support 2189 - better i2c mux support 2190 2191 ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. ** 2192 2193 These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining 2194 CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver 2195 for the selected CPU. 2196 2197 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot 2198 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in 2199 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime 2200 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the 2201 command line interface. 2202 2203 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. 2204 2205 There are several other quantities that must also be 2206 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2207 2208 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED 2209 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus 2210 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie 2211 the CPU's i2c node address). 2212 2213 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx 2214 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node 2215 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See, 2216 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set 2217 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0. 2218 2219 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX 2220 2221 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2222 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2223 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start 2224 commands until the slave device responds. 2225 2226 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 2227 2228 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT) 2229 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are 2230 from include/configs/lwmon.h): 2231 2232 I2C_INIT 2233 2234 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C 2235 controller or configure ports. 2236 2237 eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL) 2238 2239 I2C_PORT 2240 2241 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code 2242 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values 2243 are 0..3 for ports A..D. 2244 2245 I2C_ACTIVE 2246 2247 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active 2248 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this 2249 define can be null. 2250 2251 eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA) 2252 2253 I2C_TRISTATE 2254 2255 The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated 2256 (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this 2257 define can be null. 2258 2259 eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA) 2260 2261 I2C_READ 2262 2263 Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high, 2264 false if it is low. 2265 2266 eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0) 2267 2268 I2C_SDA(bit) 2269 2270 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it 2271 is false, it clears it (low). 2272 2273 eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \ 2274 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \ 2275 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA 2276 2277 I2C_SCL(bit) 2278 2279 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it 2280 is false, it clears it (low). 2281 2282 eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \ 2283 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \ 2284 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL 2285 2286 I2C_DELAY 2287 2288 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this 2289 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus 2290 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something 2291 like: 2292 2293 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2) 2294 2295 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA 2296 2297 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h), 2298 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be 2299 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will 2300 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate. 2301 2302 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to 2303 the generic GPIO functions. 2304 2305 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD 2306 2307 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer 2308 chips might think that the current transfer is still 2309 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access 2310 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the 2311 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin 2312 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a 2313 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c 2314 is run early in the boot sequence. 2315 2316 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT 2317 2318 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is 2319 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in 2320 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() 2321 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus 2322 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c 2323 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of 2324 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus 2325 controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). 2326 2327 CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 2328 2329 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags 2330 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment 2331 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast) 2332 2333 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2334 2335 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which 2336 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is 2337 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command. 2338 Note that bus numbering is zero-based. 2339 2340 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES 2341 2342 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped 2343 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2344 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify 2345 a 1D array of device addresses 2346 2347 e.g. 2348 #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2349 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68} 2350 2351 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus 2352 2353 #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS 2354 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}} 2355 2356 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1 2357 2358 CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 2359 2360 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD. 2361 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0. 2362 2363 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM 2364 2365 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC. 2366 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0. 2367 2368 CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM 2369 2370 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT. 2371 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0. 2372 2373 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR: 2374 2375 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device. 2376 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for 2377 specified DTT device. 2378 2379 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START 2380 2381 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in 2382 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start 2383 between writing the address pointer and reading the 2384 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour 2385 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C 2386 devices can use either method, but some require one or 2387 the other. 2388 2389- SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI 2390 2391 Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with 2392 SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and 2393 D/As on the SACSng board) 2394 2395 CONFIG_SH_SPI 2396 2397 Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently 2398 only SH7757 is supported. 2399 2400 CONFIG_SPI_X 2401 2402 Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing. 2403 (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X) 2404 2405 CONFIG_SOFT_SPI 2406 2407 Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than 2408 using hardware support. This is a general purpose 2409 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins 2410 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is 2411 defined, the board configuration must define several 2412 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For 2413 an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h. 2414 2415 CONFIG_HARD_SPI 2416 2417 Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads 2418 and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration 2419 must define a list of chip-select function pointers. 2420 Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an 2421 example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h. 2422 2423 CONFIG_MXC_SPI 2424 2425 Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC 2426 SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported. 2427 2428- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA 2429 2430 Enables FPGA subsystem. 2431 2432 CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor> 2433 2434 Enables support for specific chip vendors. 2435 (ALTERA, XILINX) 2436 2437 CONFIG_FPGA_<family> 2438 2439 Enables support for FPGA family. 2440 (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX) 2441 2442 CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT 2443 2444 Specify the number of FPGA devices to support. 2445 2446 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK 2447 2448 Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration. 2449 2450 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY 2451 2452 Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy 2453 status by the configuration function. This option 2454 will require a board or device specific function to 2455 be written. 2456 2457 CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY 2458 2459 If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA 2460 configuration driver. 2461 2462 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC 2463 Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration 2464 2465 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR 2466 2467 Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile 2468 loading. For example, abort during Virtex II 2469 configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which 2470 indicated a CRC error). 2471 2472 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT 2473 2474 Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert 2475 after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II 2476 FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500 2477 ms. 2478 2479 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY 2480 2481 Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during 2482 Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms. 2483 2484 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG 2485 2486 Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is 2487 200 ms. 2488 2489- Configuration Management: 2490 CONFIG_IDENT_STRING 2491 2492 If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot 2493 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION) 2494 2495- Vendor Parameter Protection: 2496 2497 U-Boot considers the values of the environment 2498 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and 2499 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that 2500 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and 2501 protects these variables from casual modification by 2502 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only, 2503 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can 2504 change this behaviour: 2505 2506 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config 2507 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is 2508 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete 2509 these parameters. 2510 2511 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR 2512 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default 2513 Ethernet address is installed in the environment, 2514 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The 2515 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains 2516 read-only.] 2517 2518 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way 2519 for any variable by configuring the type of access 2520 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable 2521 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC. 2522 2523- Protected RAM: 2524 CONFIG_PRAM 2525 2526 Define this variable to enable the reservation of 2527 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten 2528 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of 2529 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite 2530 this default value by defining an environment 2531 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to 2532 reserve. Note that the board info structure will 2533 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is 2534 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will 2535 automatically be defined to hold the amount of 2536 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot 2537 argument to Linux, for instance like that: 2538 2539 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem} 2540 saveenv 2541 2542 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory, 2543 either, which results in a memory region that will 2544 not be affected by reboots. 2545 2546 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic 2547 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that 2548 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the 2549 following board configurations are known to be 2550 "pRAM-clean": 2551 2552 IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL, 2553 HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, 2554 FLAGADM, TQM8260 2555 2556- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB) 2557 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not 2558 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures 2559 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit 2560 machines using physical address extension or similar. 2561 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which 2562 currently only supports clearing the memory. 2563 2564- Error Recovery: 2565 CONFIG_PANIC_HANG 2566 2567 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a 2568 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually. 2569 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded 2570 system where you want the system to reboot 2571 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be 2572 useful during development since you can try to debug 2573 the conditions that lead to the situation. 2574 2575 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT 2576 2577 This variable defines the number of retries for 2578 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP 2579 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a 2580 default value of 5 is used. 2581 2582 CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT 2583 2584 Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds. 2585 2586 CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 2587 2588 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol. 2589 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command, 2590 try longer timeout such as 2591 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL 2592 2593- Command Interpreter: 2594 CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE 2595 2596 Enable auto completion of commands using TAB. 2597 2598 Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet 2599 for the "hush" shell. 2600 2601 2602 CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER 2603 2604 Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from 2605 Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling 2606 powerful command line syntax like 2607 if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||' 2608 constructs ("shell scripts"). 2609 2610 If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour 2611 with a somewhat smaller memory footprint. 2612 2613 2614 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 2615 2616 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is 2617 printed when the command interpreter needs more input 2618 to complete a command. Usually "> ". 2619 2620 Note: 2621 2622 In the current implementation, the local variables 2623 space and global environment variables space are 2624 separated. Local variables are those you define by 2625 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local 2626 variable later on, you have write `$name' or 2627 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable 2628 directly type `$name' at the command prompt. 2629 2630 Global environment variables are those you use 2631 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored 2632 in such a variable, you need to use the run command, 2633 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them. 2634 2635 To store commands and special characters in a 2636 variable, please use double quotation marks 2637 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead 2638 of the backslashes before semicolons and special 2639 symbols. 2640 2641- Commandline Editing and History: 2642 CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING 2643 2644 Enable editing and History functions for interactive 2645 commandline input operations 2646 2647- Default Environment: 2648 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS 2649 2650 Define this to contain any number of null terminated 2651 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of 2652 the default environment compiled into the boot image. 2653 2654 For example, place something like this in your 2655 board's config file: 2656 2657 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \ 2658 "myvar1=value1\0" \ 2659 "myvar2=value2\0" 2660 2661 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the 2662 internal format how the environment is stored by the 2663 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported 2664 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format 2665 will change soon, there is no guarantee either. 2666 You better know what you are doing here. 2667 2668 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is 2669 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset 2670 the environment like the "source" command or the 2671 boot command first. 2672 2673 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG 2674 2675 Define this in order to add variables describing the 2676 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment. 2677 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc. 2678 2679 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined: 2680 2681 - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH 2682 - CONFIG_SYS_CPU 2683 - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD 2684 - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR 2685 - CONFIG_SYS_SOC 2686 2687 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG 2688 2689 Define this in order to add variables describing certain 2690 run-time determined information about the hardware to the 2691 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev. 2692 2693 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT 2694 2695 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is 2696 intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits 2697 that so that the environment is not available until 2698 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL 2699 this is instead controlled by the value of 2700 /config/load-environment. 2701 2702- DataFlash Support: 2703 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH 2704 2705 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and 2706 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard 2707 commands cp, md... 2708 2709- Serial Flash support 2710 CONFIG_CMD_SF 2711 2712 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands 2713 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'. 2714 2715 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial 2716 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update 2717 commands. 2718 2719 The following defaults may be provided by the platform 2720 to handle the common case when only a single serial 2721 flash is present on the system. 2722 2723 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier 2724 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select 2725 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h) 2726 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz 2727 2728 CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST 2729 2730 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash 2731 test ('sf test'). 2732 2733 CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg 2734 2735 Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr 2736 support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes. 2737 2738- SystemACE Support: 2739 CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 2740 2741 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE 2742 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address 2743 of the chip must also be defined in the 2744 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example: 2745 2746 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE 2747 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000 2748 2749 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type 2750 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls. 2751 2752- TFTP Fixed UDP Port: 2753 CONFIG_TFTP_PORT 2754 2755 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp 2756 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value. 2757 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port 2758 number generator is used. 2759 2760 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply 2761 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't 2762 defined, the normal port 69 is used. 2763 2764 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to 2765 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured 2766 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of 2767 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing 2768 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally. 2769 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall, 2770 but sometimes that is not allowed. 2771 2772- Hashing support: 2773 CONFIG_CMD_HASH 2774 2775 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce 2776 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256). 2777 2778 CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY 2779 2780 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code 2781 size a little. 2782 2783 CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing 2784 CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing 2785 2786 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps 2787 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'. 2788 2789- Freescale i.MX specific commands: 2790 CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT 2791 This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an 2792 HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific. 2793 2794 CONFIG_CMD_BMODE 2795 This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing 2796 a boot from specific media. 2797 2798 This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to 2799 activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating 2800 on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal 2801 will set it back to normal. This command currently 2802 supports i.MX53 and i.MX6. 2803 2804- Signing support: 2805 CONFIG_RSA 2806 2807 This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification 2808 in U-Boot. See doc/uImage/signature for more information. 2809 2810 The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this 2811 option. 2812 2813 2814- Show boot progress: 2815 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS 2816 2817 Defining this option allows to add some board- 2818 specific code (calling a user-provided function 2819 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show 2820 the system's boot progress on some display (for 2821 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment, 2822 the following checkpoints are implemented: 2823 2824- Detailed boot stage timing 2825 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE 2826 Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage 2827 of the boot process. 2828 2829 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT 2830 This is the number of available user bootstage records. 2831 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...) 2832 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed 2833 the limit, recording will stop. 2834 2835 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT 2836 Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this: 2837 2838 Timer summary in microseconds: 2839 Mark Elapsed Stage 2840 0 0 reset 2841 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start 2842 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9 2843 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done 2844 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start 2845 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop 2846 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start 2847 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel 2848 2849 CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE 2850 Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report 2851 and un/stashing of bootstage data. 2852 2853 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT 2854 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage' 2855 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child 2856 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the 2857 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the 2858 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds. 2859 For example: 2860 2861 bootstage { 2862 154 { 2863 name = "board_init_f"; 2864 mark = <3575678>; 2865 }; 2866 170 { 2867 name = "lcd"; 2868 accum = <33482>; 2869 }; 2870 }; 2871 2872 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree. 2873 2874Legacy uImage format: 2875 2876 Arg Where When 2877 1 common/cmd_bootm.c before attempting to boot an image 2878 -1 common/cmd_bootm.c Image header

CONFIG_FIT 3029 Enable support for the FIT uImage format. 3030 3031 CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH 3032 When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the 3033 one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of 3034 U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the 3035 most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node. 3036 The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored. 3037 3038 CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE 3039 This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages, 3040 using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See 3041 doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details. 3042 3043- Standalone program support: 3044 CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR 3045 3046 This option defines a board specific value for the 3047 address where standalone program gets loaded, thus 3048 overwriting the architecture dependent default 3049 settings. 3050 3051- Frame Buffer Address: 3052 CONFIG_FB_ADDR 3053 3054 Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific 3055 address for frame buffer. This is typically the case 3056 when using a graphics controller has separate video 3057 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at 3058 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it 3059 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs 3060 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the 3061 configured panel size. 3062 3063 Please see board_init_f function. 3064 3065- Automatic software updates via TFTP server 3066 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP 3067 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX 3068 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX 3069 3070 These options enable and control the auto-update feature; 3071 for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update. 3072 3073- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support) 3074 CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE 3075 3076 Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel. 3077 Needed for mtdparts command support. 3078 3079 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS 3080 3081 Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux 3082 kernel.

By default, this is defined as 3300 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3301 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3302 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3303 3304 CONFIG_SPL_TARGET 3305 Final target image containing SPL and payload. Some SPLs 3306 use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for 3307 example if more than one image needs to be produced. 3308 3309 CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT 3310 Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of 3311 code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this 3312 option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the 3313 bootm command when booting a FIT image. 3314 3315- TPL framework 3316 CONFIG_TPL 3317 Enable building of TPL globally. 3318 3319 CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO 3320 Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending 3321 the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as 3322 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. 3323 CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL 3324 payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. 3325 3326Modem Support: 3327-------------- 3328 3329[so far only for SMDK2400 boards] 3330 3331- Modem support enable: 3332 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT 3333 3334- RTS/CTS Flow control enable: 3335 CONFIG_HWFLOW 3336 3337- Modem debug support: 3338 CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG 3339 3340 Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg()) 3341 for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000. 3342 3343- Interrupt support (PPC): 3344 3345 There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt() 3346 for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu() 3347 for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu() 3348 should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If 3349 CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt 3350 (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero. 3351 timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU 3352 specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led 3353 / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from 3354 general timer_interrupt(). 3355 3356- General: 3357 3358 In the target system modem support is enabled when a 3359 specific key (key combination) is pressed during 3360 power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally 3361 (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from 3362 board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy 3363 function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem 3364 initialization. 3365 3366 If there are no modem init strings in the 3367 environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the 3368 previous output (banner, info printfs) will be 3369 suppressed, though. 3370 3371 See also: doc/README.Modem 3372 3373Board initialization settings: 3374------------------------------ 3375 3376During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions 3377to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup 3378before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the 3379following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is 3380architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c 3381typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). 3382 3383- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() 3384- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() 3385- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() 3386- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() 3387 3388Configuration Settings: 3389----------------------- 3390 3391- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included; 3392 undefine this when you're short of memory. 3393 3394- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default 3395 width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output. 3396 3397- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to 3398 prompt for user input. 3399 3400- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console 3401 3402- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output 3403 3404- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands 3405 3406- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to 3407 the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is 3408 booted 3409 3410- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE: 3411 List of legal baudrate settings for this board. 3412 3413- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET 3414 Suppress display of console information at boot. 3415 3416- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV 3417 If the board specific function 3418 extern int overwrite_console (void); 3419 returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the 3420 serial port, else the settings in the environment are used. 3421 3422- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE 3423 Enable the call to overwrite_console(). 3424 3425- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE 3426 Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings. 3427 3428- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END: 3429 Begin and End addresses of the area used by the 3430 simple memory test. 3431 3432- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST: 3433 Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test. 3434 3435- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH: 3436 Scratch address used by the alternate memory test 3437 You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable 3438 3439- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only): 3440 If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, 3441 this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top 3442 (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By 3443 fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed 3444 the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either. 3445 This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux 3446 board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that 3447 recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup 3448 will have to get fixed in Linux additionally. 3449 3450 This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx 3451 CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't 3452 be touched. 3453 3454 WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of 3455 the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case, 3456 then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a 3457 non page size aligned address and this could cause major 3458 problems. 3459 3460- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE: 3461 Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download 3462 3463- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE: 3464 Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here. 3465 3466- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE: 3467 Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a 3468 Cogent motherboard) 3469 3470- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE: 3471 Physical start address of Flash memory. 3472 3473- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE: 3474 Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by 3475 make config files to be same as the text base address 3476 (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as 3477 CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash. 3478 3479- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN: 3480 Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to 3481 determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is 3482 embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate 3483 flash sector. 3484 3485- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN: 3486 Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use. 3487 3488- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN: 3489 Normally compressed uImages are limited to an 3490 uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough, 3491 you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file 3492 to adjust this setting to your needs. 3493 3494- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ: 3495 Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of 3496 the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by 3497 the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if 3498 used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low" 3499 environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case 3500 all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low" 3501 and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment 3502 variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of 3503 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined, 3504 then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead. 3505 3506- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH: 3507 Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the 3508 initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand 3509 is enabled. 3510 3511- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE: 3512 Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between 3513 "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 3514 3515- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD: 3516 Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in 3517 space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. 3518 3519- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS: 3520 Max number of Flash memory banks 3521 3522- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT: 3523 Max number of sectors on a Flash chip 3524 3525- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT: 3526 Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms) 3527 3528- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT: 3529 Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms) 3530 3531- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT 3532 Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms) 3533 3534- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT 3535 Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms) 3536 3537- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION 3538 If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used 3539 instead of U-Boot software protection. 3540 3541- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP: 3542 3543 Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory; 3544 without this option such a download has to be 3545 performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2) 3546 copy from RAM to flash. 3547 3548 The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since 3549 you can check if the download worked before you erase 3550 the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is 3551 too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the 3552 downloaded image) this option may be very useful. 3553 3554- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI: 3555 Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the 3556 common flash structure for storing flash geometry. 3557 3558- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER 3559 This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver 3560 in the drivers directory 3561 3562- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD 3563 This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver 3564 in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash 3565 to the MTD layer. 3566 3567- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE 3568 Use buffered writes to flash. 3569 3570- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N 3571 s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered 3572 write commands. 3573 3574- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST 3575 If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't 3576 print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This 3577 is useful, if some of the configured banks are only 3578 optionally available. 3579 3580- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS 3581 If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown 3582 digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80 3583 column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays. 3584 3585- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY 3586 If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared 3587 against the source after the write operation. An error message 3588 will be printed when the contents are not identical. 3589 Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases, 3590 since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier 3591 while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable 3592 this option if you really know what you are doing. 3593 3594- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER: 3595 Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some 3596 Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value 3597 to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all 3598 buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface 3599 on high Ethernet traffic. 3600 Defaults to 4 if not defined. 3601 3602- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES 3603 3604 Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used 3605 internally to store the environment settings. The default 3606 setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most 3607 cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see 3608 lib/hashtable.c for details. 3609 3610- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 3611- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 3612 Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when 3613 calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal, 3614 hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined, 3615 the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address. 3616 3617 The format of the list is: 3618 type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m] 3619 access_atribute = [a|r|o|c] 3620 attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute] 3621 entry = variable_name[:attributes] 3622 list = entry[,list] 3623 3624 The type attributes are: 3625 s - String (default) 3626 d - Decimal 3627 x - Hexadecimal 3628 b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF]) 3629 i - IP address 3630 m - MAC address 3631 3632 The access attributes are: 3633 a - Any (default) 3634 r - Read-only 3635 o - Write-once 3636 c - Change-default 3637 3638 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT 3639 Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags" 3640 envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. 3641 3642 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC 3643 Define this to a list (string) to define validation that 3644 should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags" 3645 environment variable. To override a setting in the static 3646 list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the 3647 ".flags" variable. 3648 3649- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE 3650 If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable 3651 access flags. 3652 3653- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD 3654 This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the 3655 architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards 3656 to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the 3657 arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and 3658 common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture 3659 must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in 3660 its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on 3661 your board please report the problem and send patches! 3662 3663- CONFIG_SYS_SYM_OFFSETS 3664 This is set by architectures that use offsets for link symbols 3665 instead of absolute values. So bss_start is obtained using an 3666 offset _bss_start_ofs from CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, rather than 3667 directly. You should not need to touch this setting. 3668 3669- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only) 3670 This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should 3671 be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how 3672 the value can be calulated on a given board. 3673 3674The following definitions that deal with the placement and management 3675of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the 3676following configurations: 3677 3678- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC: 3679 3680 Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils 3681 may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images. 3682 3683- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH: 3684 3685 Define this if the environment is in flash memory. 3686 3687 a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is 3688 "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This 3689 happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot 3690 sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller 3691 sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a 3692 layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In 3693 such a case you would place the environment in one of the 3694 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With 3695 "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the 3696 environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap 3697 between U-Boot and the environment. 3698 3699 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3700 3701 Offset of environment data (variable area) to the 3702 beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot 3703 type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset 3704 for this sector is given here. 3705 3706 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE. 3707 3708 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3709 3710 This is just another way to specify the start address of 3711 the flash sector containing the environment (instead of 3712 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET). 3713 3714 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: 3715 3716 Size of the sector containing the environment. 3717 3718 3719 b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. 3720 In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for 3721 the environment. 3722 3723 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3724 3725 If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 3726 and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part 3727 of this flash sector for the environment. This saves 3728 memory for the RAM copy of the environment. 3729 3730 It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this 3731 when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, 3732 since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used 3733 for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is 3734 STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view: 3735 updating the environment in flash makes it always 3736 necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes 3737 wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in 3738 RAM, your target system will be dead. 3739 3740 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND 3741 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND 3742 3743 These settings describe a second storage area used to hold 3744 a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is 3745 a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during 3746 a "saveenv" operation. 3747 3748BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the 3749source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds* 3750accordingly! 3751 3752 3753- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM: 3754 3755 Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device 3756 (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the 3757 environment. 3758 3759 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3760 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3761 3762 These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you 3763 want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory 3764 can just be read and written to, without any special 3765 provision. 3766 3767BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early 3768in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the 3769console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or 3770U-Boot will hang. 3771 3772Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the 3773environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to 3774keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv" 3775to save the current settings. 3776 3777 3778- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM: 3779 3780 Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access 3781 device and a driver for it. 3782 3783 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3784 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3785 3786 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the 3787 environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM. 3788 3789 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR: 3790 If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device. 3791 The default address is zero. 3792 3793 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS: 3794 If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a 3795 single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example 3796 would require six bits. 3797 3798 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS: 3799 If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between 3800 page writes. The default is zero milliseconds. 3801 3802 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN: 3803 The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note 3804 that this is NOT the chip address length! 3805 3806 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW: 3807 EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones 3808 like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of 3809 address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit 3810 slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256 3811 byte chips. 3812 3813 Note that we consider the length of the address field to 3814 still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden 3815 in the chip address. 3816 3817 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE: 3818 The size in bytes of the EEPROM device. 3819 3820 - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C 3821 define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your 3822 EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus. 3823 3824 - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 3825 if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over 3826 I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this 3827 EEPROM. For example: 3828 3829 #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 1 3830 3831 EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over 3832 a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3. 3833 3834- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH: 3835 3836 Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you 3837 want to use for the environment. 3838 3839 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3840 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3841 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3842 3843 These three #defines specify the offset and size of the 3844 environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed 3845 at the specified address. 3846 3847- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE: 3848 3849 Define this if you have a remote memory space which you 3850 want to use for the local device's environment. 3851 3852 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: 3853 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3854 3855 These two #defines specify the address and size of the 3856 environment area within the remote memory space. The 3857 local device can get the environment from remote memory 3858 space by SRIO or PCIE links. 3859 3860BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use 3861"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the 3862environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link, 3863but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface. 3864 3865- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND: 3866 3867 Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use 3868 for the environment. 3869 3870 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3871 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3872 3873 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 3874 area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be 3875 aligned to an erase block boundary. 3876 3877 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 3878 3879 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE 3880 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so 3881 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure 3882 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be 3883 aligned to an erase block boundary. 3884 3885 - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional): 3886 3887 Specifies the length of the region in which the environment 3888 can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's 3889 block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than 3890 are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within 3891 the range to be avoided. 3892 3893 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional): 3894 3895 Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the 3896 environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The 3897 "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset. 3898 Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when 3899 using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB. 3900 3901- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST 3902 3903 Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the 3904 environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to 3905 CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 3906 3907- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI: 3908 3909 Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the 3910 environment. This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment 3911 accesses, which is important on NAND. 3912 3913 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART: 3914 3915 Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI. 3916 3917 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME: 3918 3919 Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the 3920 environment in. 3921 3922 - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND: 3923 3924 Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of 3925 the environment in. This will enable redundant environments in UBI. 3926 It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition. 3927 3928 - CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG 3929 - CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG 3930 3931 You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system 3932 when storing the env in UBI. 3933 3934- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC: 3935 3936 Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the 3937 environment. 3938 3939 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV: 3940 3941 Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in. 3942 3943 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional): 3944 3945 Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not 3946 set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be 3947 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition). 3948 3949 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: 3950 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: 3951 3952 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment 3953 area within the specified MMC device. 3954 3955 If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to 3956 the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated 3957 as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if 3958 your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have 3959 different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the 3960 environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the 3961 maximum possible space before it, to store other data. 3962 3963 These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an 3964 MMC sector boundary. 3965 3966 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): 3967 3968 Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to 3969 hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a 3970 valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due 3971 to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation. 3972 3973 This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the 3974 same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET. 3975 3976 This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to 3977 an MMC sector boundary. 3978 3979 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional): 3980 3981 This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is 3982 set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as 3983 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. 3984 3985- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET 3986 3987 Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The 3988 area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment 3989 is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte 3990 scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization 3991 calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems 3992 to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the 3993 start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer. 3994 3995Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor 3996has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been 3997created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f() 3998until then to read environment variables. 3999 4000The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor 4001is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working 4002with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is 4003necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the 4004"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't 4005have any device yet where we could complain.] 4006 4007Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if 4008the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you 4009use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment. 4010 4011- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN: 4012 Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED. 4013 4014 Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR 4015 also needs to be defined. 4016 4017- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR: 4018 MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state. 4019 4020- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS: 4021 Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init 4022 and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at 4023 drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving 4024 space for already greatly restricted images, including but not 4025 limited to NAND_SPL configurations. 4026 4027- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO 4028 Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on 4029 when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called 4030 to do this. 4031 4032- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE 4033 Similar to the previous option, but display this information 4034 later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if 4035 present. 4036 4037Low Level (hardware related) configuration options: 4038--------------------------------------------------- 4039 4040- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE: 4041 Cache Line Size of the CPU. 4042 4043- CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR: 4044 Default address of the IMMR after system reset. 4045 4046 Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU, 4047 and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of 4048 the IMMR register after a reset. 4049 4050- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT: 4051 Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale 4052 PowerPC SOCs. 4053 4054- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR: 4055 Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically 4056 the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. 4057 4058 CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value, 4059 for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead. 4060 4061- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS: 4062 Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new 4063 physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should 4064 be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the 4065 same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR 4066 is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended 4067 that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros: 4068 4069 #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH 4070 * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW) 4071 4072- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH: 4073 Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically 4074 either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is 4075 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 4076 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 4077 4078- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW: 4079 Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is 4080 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or 4081 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). 4082 4083- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE: 4084 If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be 4085 forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated. 4086 4087- Floppy Disk Support: 4088 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER 4089 4090 the default drive number (default value 0) 4091 4092 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE 4093 4094 defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers 4095 (default value 1) 4096 4097 CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET 4098 4099 defines the offset of register from address. It 4100 depends on which part of the data bus is connected to 4101 the FDC chipset. (default value 0) 4102 4103 If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and 4104 CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their 4105 default value. 4106 4107 if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function 4108 fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC 4109 setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board 4110 source code. It is used to make hardware dependant 4111 initializations. 4112 4113- CONFIG_IDE_AHB: 4114 Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI 4115 interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface. 4116 When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to 4117 IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional 4118 registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller 4119 is requierd. 4120 4121- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory. 4122 DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're 4123 doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only] 4124 4125- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR: 4126 4127 Start address of memory area that can be used for 4128 initial data and stack; please note that this must be 4129 writable memory that is working WITHOUT special 4130 initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which 4131 will become available only after programming the 4132 memory controller and running certain initialization 4133 sequences. 4134 4135 U-Boot uses the following memory types: 4136 - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU) 4137 - MPC824X: data cache 4138 - PPC4xx: data cache 4139 4140- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET: 4141 4142 Offset of the initial data structure in the memory 4143 area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually 4144 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial 4145 data is located at the end of the available space 4146 (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - 4147 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just 4148 below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + 4149 CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward. 4150 4151 Note: 4152 On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data 4153 cache for initial memory) the address chosen for 4154 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must 4155 point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between 4156 the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space. 4157 4158- CONFIG_SYS_SIUMCR: SIU Module Configuration (11-6) 4159 4160- CONFIG_SYS_SYPCR: System Protection Control (11-9) 4161 4162- CONFIG_SYS_TBSCR: Time Base Status and Control (11-26) 4163 4164- CONFIG_SYS_PISCR: Periodic Interrupt Status and Control (11-31) 4165 4166- CONFIG_SYS_PLPRCR: PLL, Low-Power, and Reset Control Register (15-30) 4167 4168- CONFIG_SYS_SCCR: System Clock and reset Control Register (15-27) 4169 4170- CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM: 4171 SDRAM timing 4172 4173- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA: 4174 periodic timer for refresh 4175 4176- CONFIG_SYS_DER: Debug Event Register (37-47) 4177 4178- FLASH_BASE0_PRELIM, FLASH_BASE1_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_REMAP_OR_AM, 4179 CONFIG_SYS_PRELIM_OR_AM, CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_FLASH, CONFIG_SYS_OR0_REMAP, 4180 CONFIG_SYS_OR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_REMAP, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_PRELIM, 4181 CONFIG_SYS_BR1_PRELIM: 4182 Memory Controller Definitions: BR0/1 and OR0/1 (FLASH) 4183 4184- SDRAM_BASE2_PRELIM, SDRAM_BASE3_PRELIM, SDRAM_MAX_SIZE, 4185 CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM, CONFIG_SYS_OR2_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR2_PRELIM, 4186 CONFIG_SYS_OR3_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR3_PRELIM: 4187 Memory Controller Definitions: BR2/3 and OR2/3 (SDRAM) 4188 4189- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_4K, CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_2BK_8K, 4190 CONFIG_SYS_MPTPR_1BK_8K, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_8COL, CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_9COL: 4191 Machine Mode Register and Memory Periodic Timer 4192 Prescaler definitions (SDRAM timing) 4193 4194- CONFIG_SYS_I2C_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4195 enable I2C microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4196 define relocation offset in DPRAM [DSP2] 4197 4198- CONFIG_SYS_SMC_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SMC_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4199 enable SMC microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4200 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SMC1] 4201 4202- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_UCODE_PATCH, CONFIG_SYS_SPI_DPMEM_OFFSET [0x1FC0]: 4203 enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); 4204 define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4] 4205 4206- CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK: 4207 Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful, 4208 wrong setting might damage your board. Read 4209 doc/README.MBX before setting this variable! 4210 4211- CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only) 4212 Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post 4213 (Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides 4214 #define'd default value in commproc.h resp. 4215 cpm_8260.h. 4216 4217- CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, 4218 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL, 4219 CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK1_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_BUS, 4220 CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_MEM_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEM_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, 4221 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_BUS, CPU_PCI_MEMIO_START, 4222 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR1_MASK_ATTRIB, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_LOCAL, 4223 CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_IO_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_SIZE, 4224 CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only) 4225 Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set. 4226 4227- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE: 4228 Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not 4229 required. 4230 4231- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY 4232 Only scan through and get the devices on the busses. 4233 Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or 4234 something has already done it, and we don't need to do it 4235 a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted 4236 by coreboot or similar. 4237 4238- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE: 4239 Enable support for indirect PCI bridges. 4240 4241- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO: 4242 Chip has SRIO or not 4243 4244- CONFIG_SRIO1: 4245 Board has SRIO 1 port available 4246 4247- CONFIG_SRIO2: 4248 Board has SRIO 2 port available 4249 4250- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER 4251 Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE 4252 4253- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT: 4254 Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4255 4256- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS: 4257 Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4258 4259- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE: 4260 Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region 4261 4262- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT 4263 Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using 4264 a 16 bit bus. 4265 Not all NAND drivers use this symbol. 4266 Example of drivers that use it: 4267 - drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c 4268 - drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c 4269 4270- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG 4271 Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined 4272 a default value will be used. 4273 4274- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM 4275 Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common 4276 with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs 4277 4278 SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS 4279 I2C address of the SPD EEPROM 4280 4281- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM 4282 If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first 4283 one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve 4284 to something your driver can deal with. 4285 4286- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING 4287 Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with 4288 soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing 4289 parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into 4290 header files or board specific files. 4291 4292- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE 4293 Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr. 4294 4295- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0 4296 Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should 4297 be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3. 4298 4299- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12] 4300 Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor. 4301 4302- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY 4303 Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds 4304 to the given FEC; i. e. 4305 #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4 4306 means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1 4307 4308 When set to -1, means to probe for first available. 4309 4310- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR 4311 The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only). 4312 (so program the FEC to ignore it). 4313 4314- CONFIG_RMII 4315 Enable RMII mode for all FECs. 4316 Note that this is a global option, we can't 4317 have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode. 4318 4319- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY 4320 Add a verify option to the crc32 command. 4321 The syntax is: 4322 4323 => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32> 4324 4325 Where address/count indicate a memory area 4326 and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the 4327 area should have. 4328 4329- CONFIG_LOOPW 4330 Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if 4331 the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4332 4333- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC 4334 Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic 4335 "md/mw" commands. 4336 Examples: 4337 4338 => mdc.b 10 4 500 4339 This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms. 4340 4341 => mwc.l 100 12345678 10 4342 This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms. 4343 4344 This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated 4345 globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). 4346 4347- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT 4348 [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain 4349 low level initializations (like setting up the memory 4350 controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not 4351 relocate itself into RAM. 4352 4353 Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only 4354 exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some 4355 other boot loader or by a debugger which performs 4356 these initializations itself. 4357 4358- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD 4359 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4360 that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when 4361 compiling a NAND SPL. 4362 4363- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD 4364 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader 4365 that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot. 4366 It is loaded by the SPL. 4367 4368- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC 4369 Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section 4370 .resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the 4371 previous 4k of the .text section. 4372 4373- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM 4374 Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses 4375 effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard 4376 U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated 4377 to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since 4378 it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all 4379 addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses 4380 to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem(). 4381 4382- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY 4383 CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET 4384 If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will 4385 be used if available. These functions may be faster under some 4386 conditions but may increase the binary size. 4387 4388- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR 4389 If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not 4390 needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot. 4391 4392- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK 4393 Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz). 4394 4395 NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms. 4396 4397Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: 4398----------------------------------- 4399 4400The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the 4401loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. 4402This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros 4403are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address 4404within that device. 4405 4406- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR 4407 The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The 4408 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro 4409 is also specified. 4410 4411- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH 4412 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format 4413 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it 4414 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some 4415 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. 4416 4417- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR 4418 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as 4419 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the 4420 virtual address in NOR flash. 4421 4422- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND 4423 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. 4424 CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. 4425 4426- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC 4427 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC 4428 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 4429 4430- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH 4431 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI 4432 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. 4433 4434- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE 4435 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master) 4436 memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which 4437 can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound 4438 window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in 4439 master's memory space. 4440 4441Building the Software: 4442====================== 4443 4444Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments 4445and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support 4446all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all 4447(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we 4448recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK) 4449which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot. 4450 4451If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you 4452have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, 4453you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. 4454Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are 4455necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter: 4456 4457 $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- 4458 $ export CROSS_COMPILE 4459 4460Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in 4461 the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain 4462 (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW 4463 toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: 4464 4465 $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools 4466 4467 Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can 4468 be executed on computers running Windows. 4469 4470U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the 4471sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This 4472is done by typing: 4473 4474 make NAME_config 4475 4476where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu- 4477rations; see boards.cfg for supported names. 4478 4479Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if 4480 additional information is available from the board vendor; for 4481 instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard) 4482 or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features" 4483 when choosing the configuration, i. e. 4484 4485 make TQM823L_config 4486 - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support 4487 4488 make TQM823L_LCD_config 4489 - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD 4490 4491 etc. 4492 4493 4494Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot 4495images ready for download to / installation on your system: 4496 4497- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image 4498- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format 4499- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format 4500 4501By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved 4502in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change 4503this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory: 4504 45051. Add O= to the make command line invocations: 4506 4507 make O=/tmp/build distclean 4508 make O=/tmp/build NAME_config 4509 make O=/tmp/build all 4510 45112. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location: 4512 4513 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 4514 make distclean 4515 make NAME_config 4516 make all 4517 4518Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment 4519variable. 4520 4521 4522Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so 4523for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of 4524native "make". 4525 4526 4527If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need 4528to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these 4529steps: 4530 45311. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel 4532 "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples. 4533 Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order. 45342. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any 4535 files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least 4536 the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds". 45373. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for 4538 your board 45393. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new 4540 directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. 45414. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name. 45425. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file 4543 to be installed on your target system. 45446. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. 4545 [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] 4546 4547 4548Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: 4549============================================================== 4550 4551If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board 4552or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to 4553provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes 4554the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest 4555official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources. 4556 4557But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- 4558cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of 4559the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, 4560just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot 4561for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can 4562select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE' 4563environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools 4564you can type 4565 4566 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 4567 4568or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type 4569 4570 CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL 4571 4572When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build 4573U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by 4574setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target 4575built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and 4576<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default 4577location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment 4578variable. For example: 4579 4580 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 4581 export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log 4582 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 4583 4584With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build, 4585log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean 4586during the whole build process. 4587 4588 4589See also "U-Boot Porting Guide" below. 4590 4591 4592Monitor Commands - Overview: 4593============================ 4594 4595go - start application at address 'addr' 4596run - run commands in an environment variable 4597bootm - boot application image from memory 4598bootp - boot image via network using BootP/TFTP protocol 4599bootz - boot zImage from memory 4600tftpboot- boot image via network using TFTP protocol 4601 and env variables "ipaddr" and "serverip" 4602 (and eventually "gatewayip") 4603tftpput - upload a file via network using TFTP protocol 4604rarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol 4605diskboot- boot from IDE devicebootd - boot default, i.e., run 'bootcmd' 4606loads - load S-Record file over serial line 4607loadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode) 4608md - memory display 4609mm - memory modify (auto-incrementing) 4610nm - memory modify (constant address) 4611mw - memory write (fill) 4612cp - memory copy 4613cmp - memory compare 4614crc32 - checksum calculation 4615i2c - I2C sub-system 4616sspi - SPI utility commands 4617base - print or set address offset 4618printenv- print environment variables 4619setenv - set environment variables 4620saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage 4621protect - enable or disable FLASH write protection 4622erase - erase FLASH memory 4623flinfo - print FLASH memory information 4624nand - NAND memory operations (see doc/README.nand) 4625bdinfo - print Board Info structure 4626iminfo - print header information for application image 4627coninfo - print console devices and informations 4628ide - IDE sub-system 4629loop - infinite loop on address range 4630loopw - infinite write loop on address range 4631mtest - simple RAM test 4632icache - enable or disable instruction cache 4633dcache - enable or disable data cache 4634reset - Perform RESET of the CPU 4635echo - echo args to console 4636version - print monitor version 4637help - print online help 4638? - alias for 'help' 4639 4640 4641Monitor Commands - Detailed Description: 4642======================================== 4643 4644TODO. 4645 4646For now: just type "help <command>". 4647 4648 4649Environment Variables: 4650====================== 4651 4652U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which 4653can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. 4654 4655Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using 4656"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv" 4657without a value can be used to delete a variable from the 4658environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are 4659working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the 4660environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided. 4661 4662Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables. 4663 4664List of environment variables (most likely not complete): 4665 4666 baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE 4667 4668 bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 4669 4670 bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND 4671 4672 bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image 4673 4674 bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP 4675 4676 bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 4677 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 4678 a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed 4679 for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size" 4680 environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is 4681 also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux 4682 kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and 4683 bootm_mapsize. 4684 4685 bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel. 4686 This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it 4687 defines the size of the memory region starting at base 4688 address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel 4689 during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used 4690 as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is 4691 used otherwise. 4692 4693 bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm 4694 command can be restricted. This variable is given as 4695 a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region 4696 allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low" 4697 environment variable. 4698 4699 updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used 4700 by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to 4701 documentation in doc/README.update for more details. 4702 4703 autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'), 4704 "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the 4705 configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to 4706 load any image using TFTP 4707 4708 autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp", 4709 "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will 4710 be automatically started (by internally calling 4711 "bootm") 4712 4713 If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the 4714 "bootm" command will be copied to the load address 4715 (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started. 4716 This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary 4717 data. 4718 4719 fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the 4720 flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot. 4721 For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory 4722 at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel 4723 only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you 4724 may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the 4725 device tree blob be copied to the maximum address 4726 of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can 4727 access it during the boot procedure. 4728 4729 If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then 4730 the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this 4731 to work it must reside in writable memory, have 4732 sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to 4733 add the information it needs into it, and the memory 4734 must be accessible by the kernel. 4735 4736 fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened 4737 device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is 4738 defined. 4739 4740 i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) 4741 if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast 4742 mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in 4743 initialization code. So, for changes to be effective 4744 it must be saved and board must be reset. 4745 4746 initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images: 4747 If this variable is not set, initrd images will be 4748 copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this 4749 is usually what you want since it allows for 4750 maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to 4751 make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the 4752 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment 4753 variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0". 4754 Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper 4755 address to use (U-Boot will still check that it 4756 does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data). 4757 4758 For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB 4759 RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux, 4760 you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of 4761 the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make 4762 sure that the initrd image is placed in the first 4763 12 MB as well - this can be done with 4764 4765 setenv initrd_high 00c00000 4766 4767 If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an 4768 indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal 4769 for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash 4770 memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the 4771 ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the 4772 boot time on your system, but requires that this 4773 feature is supported by your Linux kernel. 4774 4775 ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command 4776 4777 loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp", 4778 "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot" 4779 4780 loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO 4781 4782 serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command 4783 4784 bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 4785 4786 bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 4787 4788 bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 4789 4790 ethprime - controls which interface is used first. 4791 4792 ethact - controls which interface is currently active. 4793 For example you can do the following 4794 4795 => setenv ethact FEC 4796 => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC 4797 => setenv ethact SCC 4798 => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC 4799 4800 ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all 4801 available network interfaces. 4802 It just stays at the currently selected interface. 4803 4804 netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will 4805 either succeed or fail without retrying. 4806 When set to "once" the network operation will 4807 fail when all the available network interfaces 4808 are tried once without success. 4809 Useful on scripts which control the retry operation 4810 themselves. 4811 4812 npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode 4813 4814 silent_linux - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by 4815 changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be 4816 made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If 4817 unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console 4818 is silent. 4819 4820 tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's 4821 UDP source port. 4822 4823 tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP 4824 destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69. 4825 4826 tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set, 4827 we use the TFTP server's default block size 4828 4829 tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli- 4830 seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines 4831 when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to 4832 be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds. 4833 Lowering this value may make downloads succeed 4834 faster in networks with high packet loss rates or 4835 with unreliable TFTP servers. 4836 4837 vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over 4838 Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q 4839 VLAN tagged frames. 4840 4841The following image location variables contain the location of images 4842used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is 4843not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment 4844variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP 4845server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be 4846loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR 4847flash or offset in NAND flash. 4848 4849*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some 4850boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some 4851boards use these variables for other purposes. 4852 4853Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location 4854----- --------- ----------- -------------- 4855u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr 4856Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr 4857device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr 4858ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr 4859 4860The following environment variables may be used and automatically 4861updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"), 4862depending the information provided by your boot server: 4863 4864 bootfile - see above 4865 dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server 4866 dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server 4867 gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use 4868 hostname - Target hostname 4869 ipaddr - see above 4870 netmask - Subnet Mask 4871 rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server 4872 serverip - see above 4873 4874 4875There are two special Environment Variables: 4876 4877 serial# - contains hardware identification information such 4878 as type string and/or serial number 4879 ethaddr - Ethernet address 4880 4881These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of 4882the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables 4883once they have been set once. 4884 4885 4886Further special Environment Variables: 4887 4888 ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed 4889 with the "version" command. This variable is 4890 readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE). 4891 4892 4893Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take 4894only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-). 4895 4896 4897Callback functions for environment variables: 4898--------------------------------------------- 4899 4900For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change 4901when their values are changed. This functionailty allows functions to 4902be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or 4903deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side 4904effect to happen or for the change to be rejected. 4905 4906The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the 4907U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code. 4908 4909These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The 4910static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC 4911in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of 4912associations. The list must be in the following format: 4913 4914 entry = variable_name[:callback_name] 4915 list = entry[,list] 4916 4917If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted. 4918Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list. 4919 4920Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable 4921with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will 4922override any association in the static list. You can define 4923CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the 4924".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. 4925 4926 4927Command Line Parsing: 4928===================== 4929 4930There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot: 4931the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell: 4932 4933Old, simple command line parser: 4934-------------------------------- 4935 4936- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands) 4937- several commands on one line, separated by ';' 4938- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax 4939- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\', 4940 for example: 4941 setenv bootcmd bootm \${address} 4942- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example: 4943 setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off' 4944 4945Hush shell: 4946----------- 4947 4948- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like 4949 if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done, 4950 until...do...done, ... 4951- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv 4952 commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax 4953 "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run" 4954 command 4955 4956General rules: 4957-------------- 4958 4959(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run" 4960 command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and 4961 one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be 4962 executed anyway. 4963 4964(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e. 4965 calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing 4966 command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining 4967 variables are not executed. 4968 4969Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces: 4970======================================= 4971 4972Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports 4973such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a 4974"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows: 4975 4976Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding 4977MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0), 4978"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ... 4979 4980If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance 4981in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon- 4982ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment 4983variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means: 4984 4985o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the 4986 environment, the SROM's address is used. 4987 4988o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the 4989 environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is 4990 used. 4991 4992o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and 4993 both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used. 4994 4995o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the 4996 addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a 4997 warning is printed. 4998 4999o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error 5000 is raised. 5001 5002If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses 5003will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This 5004may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable. 5005The naming convention is as follows: 5006"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc. 5007 5008Image Formats: 5009============== 5010 5011U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) 5012images in two formats: 5013 5014New uImage format (FIT) 5015----------------------- 5016 5017Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar 5018to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple 5019components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by 5020SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory. 5021 5022 5023Old uImage format 5024----------------- 5025 5026Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything, 5027preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for 5028details; basically, the header defines the following image properties: 5029 5030* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, 5031 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks, 5032 LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY; 5033 Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS, 5034 INTEGRITY). 5035* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, 5036 IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; 5037 Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC). 5038* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2) 5039* Load Address 5040* Entry Point 5041* Image Name 5042* Image Timestamp 5043 5044The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header 5045and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by 5046CRC32 checksums. 5047 5048 5049Linux Support: 5050============== 5051 5052Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application 5053easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of 5054U-Boot. 5055 5056U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some 5057special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any 5058"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image; 5059instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation 5060serves several purposes: 5061 5062- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone 5063 applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the 5064 Flash memory footprint) 5065 5066- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because 5067 lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot 5068 5069- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd" 5070 images; of course this also means that different kernel images can 5071 be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't 5072 have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just 5073 change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the 5074 software is easier now. 5075 5076 5077Linux HOWTO: 5078============ 5079 5080Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems: 5081--------------------------------------- 5082 5083U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to 5084configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware 5085(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to 5086Linux :-). 5087 5088But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot). 5089 5090Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance 5091include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board 5092Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h, 5093and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value 5094as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR. 5095 5096 5097Configuring the Linux kernel: 5098----------------------------- 5099 5100No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root 5101device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system. 5102 5103 5104Building a Linux Image: 5105----------------------- 5106 5107With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are 5108not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target 5109"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by 5110U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target, 5111which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a 5112100% compatible format. 5113 5114Example: 5115 5116 make TQM850L_config 5117 make oldconfig 5118 make dep 5119 make uImage 5120 5121The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to 5122encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information, 5123CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing: 5124 5125* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format): 5126 5127* convert the kernel into a raw binary image: 5128 5129 ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \ 5130 -R .note -R .comment \ 5131 -S vmlinux linux.bin 5132 5133* compress the binary image: 5134 5135 gzip -9 linux.bin 5136 5137* package compressed binary image for U-Boot: 5138 5139 mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \ 5140 -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \ 5141 -d linux.bin.gz uImage 5142 5143 5144The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use 5145with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or 5146combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64 5147byte header containing information about target architecture, 5148operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time 5149stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc. 5150 5151"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and 5152print the header information, or to build new images. 5153 5154In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information 5155contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes 5156checksum verification: 5157 5158 tools/mkimage -l image 5159 -l ==> list image header information 5160 5161The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image 5162from a "data file" which is used as image payload: 5163 5164 tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \ 5165 -n name -d data_file image 5166 -A ==> set architecture to 'arch' 5167 -O ==> set operating system to 'os' 5168 -T ==> set image type to 'type' 5169 -C ==> set compression type 'comp' 5170 -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex) 5171 -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex) 5172 -n ==> set image name to 'name' 5173 -d ==> use image data from 'datafile' 5174 5175Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load 5176address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the 5177kernel version: 5178 5179- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C, 5180- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000. 5181 5182So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read: 5183 5184 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5185 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \ 5186 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \ 5187 > examples/uImage.TQM850L 5188 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5189 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5190 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5191 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5192 Load Address: 0x00000000 5193 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5194 5195To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption): 5196 5197 -> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L 5198 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5199 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5200 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) 5201 Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB 5202 Load Address: 0x00000000 5203 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5204 5205NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade 5206speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this 5207needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not 5208need to be uncompressed: 5209 5210 -> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz 5211 -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ 5212 > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \ 5213 > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \ 5214 > examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed 5215 Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L 5216 Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000 5217 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) 5218 Data Size: 792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB 5219 Load Address: 0x00000000 5220 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5221 5222 5223Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file 5224when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk: 5225 5226 -> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \ 5227 > -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \ 5228 > -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd 5229 Image Name: Simple Ramdisk Image 5230 Created: Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000 5231 Image Type: PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed) 5232 Data Size: 566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB 5233 Load Address: 0x00000000 5234 Entry Point: 0x00000000 5235 5236 5237Installing a Linux Image: 5238------------------------- 5239 5240To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface, 5241you must convert the image to S-Record format: 5242 5243 objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec 5244 5245The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot 5246image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to 5247address 0x00000000.

Usually these programs 5428 will install their own set of exception handlers, device 5429 drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot 5430 expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU. 5431 "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their 5432 parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is 5433 being started. 5434 "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS 5435 (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like 5436 RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want 5437 to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot 5438 server provides just a single image file, but you want to get 5439 for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image. 5440 5441 "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each 5442 image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network 5443 byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0". 5444 Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by 5445 one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to 5446 a multiple of 4 bytes). 5447 5448 "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like 5449 U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to 5450 flash memory. 5451 5452 "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by 5453 U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially 5454 useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush) 5455 as command interpreter. 5456 5457Booting the Linux zImage: 5458------------------------- 5459 5460On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done 5461using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same 5462as the syntax of "bootm" command. 5463 5464Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply 5465kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the 5466address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following 5467format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>". 5468 5469 5470Standalone HOWTO: 5471================= 5472 5473One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and 5474run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of 5475U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services. 5476 5477Two simple examples are included with the sources: 5478 5479"Hello World" Demo: 5480------------------- 5481 5482'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo 5483application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot. 5484It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it 5485like that: 5486 5487 => loads 5488 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5489 ~>examples/hello_world.srec 5490 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 5491 [file transfer complete] 5492 [connected] 5493 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 5494 5495 => go 40004 Hello World!

The application can be 5516controlled by the following keys: 5517 5518 ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers 5519 b - enable interrupts and start timer 5520 e - stop timer and disable interrupts 5521 q - quit application 5522 5523 => loads 5524 ## Ready for S-Record download ... 5525 ~>examples/timer.srec 5526 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 5527 [file transfer complete] 5528 [connected] 5529 ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 5530 5531 => go 40004 5532 ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ... 5533 TIMERS=0xfff00980 5534 Using timer 1 5535 tgcr @ 0xfff00980, tmr @ 0xfff00990, trr @ 0xfff00994, tcr @ 0xfff00998, tcn @ 0xfff0099c, ter @ 0xfff009b0 5536 5537Hit 'b': 5538 [q, b, e, ?] Set interval 1000000 us 5539 Enabling timer 5540Hit '?': 5541 [q, b, e, ?] ........ 5542 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0xef6, ter=0x0 5543Hit '?': 5544 [q, b, e, ?] . 5545 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x2ad4, ter=0x0 5546Hit '?': 5547 [q, b, e, ?] . 5548 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x1efc, ter=0x0 5549Hit '?': 5550 [q, b, e, ?] . 5551 tgcr=0x1, tmr=0xff1c, trr=0x3d09, tcr=0x0, tcn=0x169d, ter=0x0 5552Hit 'e': 5553 [q, b, e, ?] ...Stopping timer 5554Hit 'q': 5555 [q, b, e, ?] ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0 5556 5557 5558Minicom warning: 5559================ 5560 5561Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the 5562"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd) 5563consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under 5564Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and 5565especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and 5566use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See 5567http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3. 5568for help with kermit. 5569 5570 5571Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this 5572configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section: 5573 5574 Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red.

This file has to be installed and patched manually: 5591 5592 # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include 5593 # mkdir powerpc 5594 # ln -s powerpc machine 5595 # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h 5596 # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST 5597 5598Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native 5599and U-Boot include files. 5600 5601Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a 5602stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel 5603proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source 5604tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the 5605meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz 5606 5607 5608Implementation Internals: 5609========================= 5610 5611The following is not intended to be a complete description of every 5612implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the 5613inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom 5614hardware. 5615 5616 5617Initial Stack, Global Data: 5618--------------------------- 5619 5620The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot 5621starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to 5622system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet). 5623This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS 5624is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working 5625at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation 5626options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU 5627models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and 5628MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be 5629locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc. 5630 5631 Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the 5632 U-Boot mailing list: 5633 5634 Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)? 5635 From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com> 5636 Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET) 5637 ... 5638 5639 Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it 5640 is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not 5641 require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness 5642 is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of 5643 necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's 5644 beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you 5645 can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and 5646 operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals. 5647 5648 OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It 5649 is another option for the system designer to use as an 5650 initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either 5651 option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your 5652 board designers haven't used it for something that would 5653 cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not 5654 used. 5655 5656 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere 5657 with your processor/board/system design. The default value 5658 you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in 5659 walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger 5660 than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set 5661 it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources 5662 that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in 5663 start.S has been around a while and should work as is when 5664 you get the config right. 5665 5666 -Chris Hallinan 5667 DS4.COM, Inc. 5668 5669It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C 5670code for the initialization procedures: 5671 5672* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt 5673 to write it. 5674 5675* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized 5676 as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali- 5677 zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM). 5678 5679* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like 5680 that. 5681 5682Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use 5683normal global data to share information beween the code. But it 5684turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly 5685simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all 5686functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_ 5687functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of 5688the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we 5689place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we 5690reserve for this purpose. 5691 5692When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the 5693relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by 5694GCC's implementation. 5695 5696For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use: 5697 R1: stack pointer 5698 R2: reserved for system use 5699 R3-R4: parameter passing and return values 5700 R5-R10: parameter passing 5701 R13: small data area pointer 5702 R30: GOT pointer 5703 R31: frame pointer 5704 5705 (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12 5706 is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when 5707 going back and forth between asm and C) 5708 5709 ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data 5710 5711 Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the 5712 address of the global data structure is known at compile time), 5713 but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat 5714 smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on 5715 average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image, 5716 624 text + 127 data). 5717 5718On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here: 5719 http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface 5720 5721 ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data 5722 5723On ARM, the following registers are used: 5724 5725 R0: function argument word/integer result 5726 R1-R3: function argument word 5727 R9: platform specific 5728 R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled) 5729 R11: argument (frame) pointer 5730 R12: temporary workspace 5731 R13: stack pointer 5732 R14: link register 5733 R15: program counter 5734 5735 ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data 5736 5737 Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported. 5738 5739On Nios II, the ABI is documented here: 5740 http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf 5741 5742 ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data 5743 5744 Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp 5745 to access small data sections, so gp is free. 5746 5747On NDS32, the following registers are used: 5748 5749 R0-R1: argument/return 5750 R2-R5: argument 5751 R15: temporary register for assembler 5752 R16: trampoline register 5753 R28: frame pointer (FP) 5754 R29: global pointer (GP) 5755 R30: link register (LP) 5756 R31: stack pointer (SP) 5757 PC: program counter (PC) 5758 5759 ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data 5760 5761NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope, 5762or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much. 5763 5764Memory Management: 5765------------------ 5766 5767U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the 5768MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection. 5769 5770The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory 5771controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each 5772memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several 5773physical memory banks. 5774 5775U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on 5776TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After 5777booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself 5778to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some 5779memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN 5780configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board 5781Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward). 5782 5783Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB 5784of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF). 5785 5786So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like 5787this: 5788 5789 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code 5790 : 5791 0x0000 1FFF 5792 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use 5793 : 5794 : 5795 5796 : 5797 : 5798 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward) 5799 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data 5800 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena 5801 : 5802 0x00FD FFFF 5803 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code 5804 ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer 5805 ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset) 5806 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM] 5807 5808 5809System Initialization: 5810---------------------- 5811 5812In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point 5813(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset 5814configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory. 5815To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address. 5816To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!) 5817initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs 5818which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked 5819part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, 5820the caches and the SIU. 5821 5822Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a 5823preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries 5824(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash 5825on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is 5826programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a 5827simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM 5828banks. 5829 5830When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of 5831different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first 5832bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address 58330x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create 5834contiguous memory starting from 0. 5835 5836Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area 5837and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board 5838Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM 5839pages, and the final stack is set up. 5840 5841Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment; 5842until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are 5843running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a 5844new address in RAM. 5845 5846 5847U-Boot Porting Guide: 5848---------------------- 5849 5850[Based on messages by Jerry Van Baren in the U-Boot-Users mailing 5851list, October 2002] 5852 5853 5854int main(int argc, char *argv[]) 5855{ 5856 sighandler_t no_more_time; 5857 5858 signal(SIGALRM, no_more_time); 5859 alarm(PROJECT_DEADLINE - toSec (3 * WEEK)); 5860 5861 if (available_money > available_manpower) { 5862 Pay consultant to port U-Boot; 5863 return 0; 5864 } 5865 5866 Download latest U-Boot source; 5867 5868 Subscribe to u-boot mailing list; 5869 5870 if (clueless) 5871 email("Hi, I am new to U-Boot, how do I get started?"); 5872 5873 while (learning) { 5874 Read the README file in the top level directory; 5875 Read http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/Manual; 5876 Read applicable doc/*.README; 5877 Read the source, Luke; 5878 /* find . -name "*.[chS]" | xargs grep -i <keyword> */ 5879 } 5880 5881 if (available_money > toLocalCurrency ($2500)) 5882 Buy a BDI3000; 5883 else 5884 Add a lot of aggravation and time; 5885 5886 if (a similar board exists) { /* hopefully... */ 5887 cp -a board/<similar> board/<myboard> 5888 cp include/configs/<similar>.h include/configs/<myboard>.h 5889 } else { 5890 Create your own board support subdirectory; 5891 Create your own board include/configs/<myboard>.h file; 5892 } 5893 Edit new board/<myboard> files 5894 Edit new include/configs/<myboard>.h 5895 5896 while (!accepted) { 5897 while (!running) { 5898 do { 5899 Add / modify source code; 5900 } until (compiles); 5901 Debug; 5902 if (clueless) 5903 email("Hi, I am having problems..."); 5904 } 5905 Send patch file to the U-Boot email list; 5906 if (reasonable critiques) 5907 Incorporate improvements from email list code review; 5908 else 5909 Defend code as written; 5910 } 5911 5912 return 0; 5913} 5914 5915void no_more_time (int sig) 5916{ 5917 hire_a_guru(); 5918} 5919 5920 5921Coding Standards: 5922----------------- 5923 5924All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel 5925coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script 5926"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory. 5927 5928Source files originating from a different project (for example the 5929MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not 5930reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those 5931sources. 5932 5933Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in 5934Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//) 5935in your code. 5936 5937Please also stick to the following formatting rules: 5938- remove any trailing white space 5939- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces 5940- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds 5941- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files 5942- do not add trailing empty lines to source files 5943 5944Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned 5945with a request to reformat the changes. 5946 5947 5948Submitting Patches: 5949------------------- 5950 5951Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to 5952establish some rules.

If you are using git (which is *strongly* 5981 recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the 5982 "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to 5983 the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems 5984 with some other mail clients. 5985 5986 If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of 5987 diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of 5988 GNU diff. 5989 5990 The current directory when running this command shall be the parent 5991 directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that 5992 your patch includes sufficient directory information for the 5993 affected files). 5994 5995 We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged, 5996 and compressed attachments must not be used. 5997 5998* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several 5999 files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file. 6000 6001* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be 6002 submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset. 6003 6004 6005Notes: 6006 6007* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched 6008 source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported 6009 for any of the boards. 6010 6011* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch 6012 containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be 6013 returned with a request to re-formatting / split it. 6014 6015* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not 6016 add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful! 6017 When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only 6018 (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature 6019 disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your 6020 modification. 6021 6022* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the 6023 u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are 6024 reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches 6025 bigger than the size limit should be avoided. 6026
