8Summary:
9========
10
11This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
12Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
13processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
14initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
15code.
16
17The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
18the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
19header files in common, and special provision has been made to
20support booting of Linux images.
21
22Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
23configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
24implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
25add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
26code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
27load and run it dynamically.
28
29
30Status:
31=======
32
33In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
34Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
35"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.
36
37In case of problems see the CHANGELOG file to find out who contributed
38the specific port. In addition, there are various MAINTAINERS files
39scattered throughout the U-Boot source identifying the people or
40companies responsible for various boards and subsystems.
41
42Note: As of August, 2010, there is no longer a CHANGELOG file in the
43actual U-Boot source tree; however, it can be created dynamically
44from the Git log using:
45
46	make CHANGELOG

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

2605
2606- legacy image format:
2607		CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY
2608		enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot.
2609
2610		Default:
2611		enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined.
2612
2613		CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY
2614		disable the legacy image format
2615
2616		This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is
2617		enabled per default for backward compatibility.
2618
2619- Standalone program support:
2620		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
2621
2622		This option defines a board specific value for the
2623		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
2624		overwriting the architecture dependent default
2625		settings.
2626
2627- Frame Buffer Address:
2628		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
2629
2630		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
2631		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
2632		when using a graphics controller has separate video
2633		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
2634		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
2635		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
2636		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
2637		configured panel size.
2638
2639		Please see board_init_f function.
2640
2641- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
2642		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
2643		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
2644		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
2645
2646		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
2647		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
2648
2649- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
2650		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
2651
2652		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
2653		Needed for mtdparts command support.
2654
2655		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
2656
2657		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
2658		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
2659
2660- UBI support
2661		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
2662		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
2663		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
2664		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
2665		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
2666		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
2667
2668		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
2669		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
2670		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
2671		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
2672		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
2673
2674		default: 4096
2675
2676		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
2677		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
2678		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
2679		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
2680		flash), this value is ignored.
2681
2682		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
2683		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
2684		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
2685		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
2686		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
2687		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
2688
2689		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
2690		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
2691		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
2692		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
2693		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
2694		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
2695		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
2696		partition.
2697
2698		default: 20
2699
2700		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
2701		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
2702		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
2703		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
2704		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
2705		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
2706		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
2707		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
2708		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
2709		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
2710		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
2711		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
2712
2713		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
2714		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
2715		without a fastmap.
2716		default: 0
2717
2718		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FM_DEBUG
2719		Enable UBI fastmap debug
2720		default: 0
2721
2722- UBIFS support
2723		CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
2724
2725		Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing.  This leaves
2726		warnings and errors enabled.
2727
2728- SPL framework
2729		CONFIG_SPL
2730		Enable building of SPL globally.
2731
2732		CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT
2733		LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
2734
2735		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
2736		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
2737		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
2738		used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
2739		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2740		must not be both defined at the same time.
2741
2742		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
2743		Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and
2744		linker lists sections), BSS excluded.
2745		When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does
2746		not exceed it.
2747
2748		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
2749		TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary.
2750
2751		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE
2752		Address to relocate to.  If unspecified, this is equal to
2753		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done).
2754
2755		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR
2756		Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary.
2757
2758		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2759		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS.
2760		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used
2761		by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
2762		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2763		must not be both defined at the same time.
2764
2765		CONFIG_SPL_STACK
2766		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use
2767
2768		CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE
2769		When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has
2770		loaded does not have a signature.
2771		Defining this is useful when code which loads images
2772		in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors
2773		will be caught.
2774		An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will
2775		consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad,
2776		and thus should be skipped silently.
2777
2778		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
2779		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
2780		relocation.  If unspecified, this is equal to
2781		CONFIG_SPL_STACK.
2782
2783		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START
2784		Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL.
2785		When this option is set the full malloc is used in SPL and
2786		it is set up by spl_init() and before that, the simple malloc()
2787		can be used if CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F is defined.
2788
2789		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE
2790		The size of the malloc pool used in SPL.
2791
2792		CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK
2793		Enable the SPL framework under common/.  This framework
2794		supports MMC, NAND and YMODEM loading of U-Boot and NAND
2795		NAND loading of the Linux Kernel.
2796
2797		CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT
2798		Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL.
2799		See also: doc/README.falcon
2800
2801		CONFIG_SPL_DISPLAY_PRINT
2802		For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information
2803		about the running system.
2804
2805		CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL
2806		Arch init code should be built for a very small image
2807
2808		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION
2809		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being
2810		used in raw mode
2811
2812		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR
2813		Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being
2814		used in raw mode (for Falcon mode)
2815
2816		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR,
2817		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS
2818		Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument
2819		parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode
2820		(for falcon mode)
2821
2822		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION
2823		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being
2824		used in fs mode
2825
2826		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_PAYLOAD_NAME
2827		Filename to read to load U-Boot when reading from filesystem
2828
2829		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_KERNEL_NAME
2830		Filename to read to load kernel uImage when reading
2831		from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
2832
2833		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_ARGS_NAME
2834		Filename to read to load kernel argument parameters
2835		when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
2836
2837		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
2838		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
2839		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
2840		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
2841		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
2842
2843		CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE
2844		Avoid SPL relocation
2845
2846		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE
2847		Include nand_base.c in the SPL.  Requires
2848		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS.
2849
2850		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS
2851		SPL uses normal NAND drivers, not minimal drivers.
2852
2853		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_IDENT
2854		SPL uses the chip ID list to identify the NAND flash.
2855		Requires CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE.
2856
2857		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC
2858		Include standard software ECC in the SPL
2859
2860		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE
2861		Support for NAND boot using simple NAND drivers that
2862		expose the cmd_ctrl() interface.
2863
2864		CONFIG_SPL_UBI
2865		Support for a lightweight UBI (fastmap) scanner and
2866		loader
2867
2868		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY
2869		Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only
2870		if you need to save space.
2871
2872		CONFIG_SPL_COMMON_INIT_DDR
2873		Set for common ddr init with serial presence detect in
2874		SPL binary.
2875
2876		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT,
2877		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE,
2878		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,
2879		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
2880		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
2881		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
2882		to read U-Boot
2883
2884		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT
2885		Add support NAND boot
2886
2887		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
2888		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from
2889
2890		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST
2891		Location in memory to load U-Boot to
2892
2893		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE
2894		Size of image to load
2895
2896		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
2897		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
2898
2899		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
2900		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
2901		data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms.
2902
2903		CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE
2904		Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary
2905
2906		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
2907		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
2908		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
2909		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
2910		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
2911		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
2912
2913		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
2914		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
2915		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
2916		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
2917
2918		CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT
2919		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
2920		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
2921		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
2922		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
2923
2924- TPL framework
2925		CONFIG_TPL
2926		Enable building of TPL globally.
2927
2928		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
2929		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
2930		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
2931		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
2932		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
2933		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
2934
2935- Interrupt support (PPC):
2936
2937		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
2938		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
2939		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
2940		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
2941		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
2942		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
2943		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
2944		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
2945		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
2946		general timer_interrupt().
2947
2948
2949Board initialization settings:
2950------------------------------
2951
2952During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
2953to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
2954before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
2955following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
2956architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
2957typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
2958
2959- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
2960- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
2961- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
2962- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
2963
2964Configuration Settings:
2965-----------------------
2966
2967- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
2968		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
2969
2970- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
2971		undefine this when you're short of memory.
2972
2973- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
2974		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
2975
2976- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
2977		prompt for user input.
2978
2979- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
2980
2981- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
2982
2983- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
2984
2985- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
2986		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
2987		booted
2988
2989- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
2990		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
2991
2992- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
2993		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
2994		simple memory test.
2995
2996- CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
2997		Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
2998
2999- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
3000		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
3001		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
3002
3003- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE
3004		Only implemented for ARMv8 for now.
3005		If defined, the size of CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE memory
3006		is substracted from total RAM and won't be reported to OS.
3007		This memory can be used as secure memory. A variable
3008		gd->arch.secure_ram is used to track the location. In systems
3009		the RAM base is not zero, or RAM is divided into banks,
3010		this variable needs to be recalcuated to get the address.
3011
3012- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE:
3013		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
3014		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
3015		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
3016		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3017		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3018		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
3019		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
3020		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
3021		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
3022
3023		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3024		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3025		be touched.
3026
3027		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3028		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3029		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3030		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3031		problems.
3032
3033- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
3034		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
3035
3036- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
3037		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3038
3039- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
3040		Physical start address of Flash memory.
3041
3042- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
3043		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3044		make config files to be same as the text base address
3045		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
3046		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
3047
3048- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
3049		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3050		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3051		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3052		flash sector.
3053
3054- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
3055		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3056
3057- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3058		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3059		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3060		will become available before relocation. The address is just
3061		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3062		space.
3063
3064		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3065		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3066		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3067		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when
3068		U-Boot relocates itself.
3069
3070- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE
3071		Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those
3072		boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is
3073		enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START).
3074
3075- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY:
3076		Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be
3077		typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped
3078		uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would
3079		otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For
3080		some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the
3081		cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed
3082		are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding
3083		cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e.
3084		if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the
3085		size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of
3086		one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has
3087		written to another region in the same cache-line. This can
3088		happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for
3089		buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g.
3090		16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes).
3091
3092		Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present.
3093
3094- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
3095		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3096		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
3097		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
3098		to adjust this setting to your needs.
3099
3100- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
3101		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
3102		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
3103		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
3104		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
3105		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
3106		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
3107		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
3108		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
3109		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
3110		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
3111
3112- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
3113		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
3114		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
3115		is enabled.
3116
3117- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
3118		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
3119		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3120
3121- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
3122		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
3123		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
3124
3125- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
3126		Max number of Flash memory banks
3127
3128- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
3129		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
3130
3131- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
3132		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
3133
3134- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
3135		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
3136
3137- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
3138		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
3139
3140- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
3141		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
3142
3143- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
3144		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
3145		instead of U-Boot software protection.
3146
3147- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
3148
3149		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3150		without this option such a download has to be
3151		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3152		copy from RAM to flash.
3153
3154		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3155		you can check if the download worked before you erase
3156		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3157		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
3158		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
3159
3160- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
3161		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
3162		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
3163
3164- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
3165		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
3166		in the drivers directory
3167
3168- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
3169		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
3170		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
3171		to the MTD layer.
3172
3173- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
3174		Use buffered writes to flash.
3175
3176- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
3177		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
3178		write commands.
3179
3180- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
3181		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
3182		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3183		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3184		optionally available.
3185
3186- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
3187		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
3188		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
3189		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
3190
3191- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
3192		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
3193		against the source after the write operation. An error message
3194		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
3195		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
3196		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
3197		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
3198		this option if you really know what you are doing.
3199
3200- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
3201		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3202		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
3203		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3204		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
3205		on high Ethernet traffic.
3206		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
3207
3208- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
3209
3210	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3211	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3212	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3213	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3214	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3215
3216- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3217- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3218	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3219	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3220	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3221	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3222
3223	The format of the list is:
3224		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3225		access_attribute = [a|r|o|c]
3226		attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute]
3227		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3228		list = entry[,list]
3229
3230	The type attributes are:
3231		s - String (default)
3232		d - Decimal
3233		x - Hexadecimal
3234		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3235		i - IP address
3236		m - MAC address
3237
3238	The access attributes are:
3239		a - Any (default)
3240		r - Read-only
3241		o - Write-once
3242		c - Change-default
3243
3244	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3245		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3246		environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3247
3248	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3249		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3250		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3251		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
3252		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3253		".flags" variable.
3254
3255	If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
3256	regular expression. This allows multiple variables to define the same
3257	flags without explicitly listing them for each variable.
3258
3259- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3260	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3261	access flags.
3262
3263- CONFIG_USE_STDINT
3264	If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this
3265	option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when
3266	building U-Boot to enable this.
3267
3268The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3269of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3270following configurations:
3271
3272- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3273
3274	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3275	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3276
3277BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3278in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the
3279console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
3280U-Boot will hang.
3281
3282Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3283environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3284keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3285to save the current settings.
3286
3287BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3288"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
3289environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3290but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
3291
3292- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
3293
3294	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
3295	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
3296	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3297
3298Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
3299has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
3300created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use env_get_f()
3301until then to read environment variables.
3302
3303The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
3304is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
3305with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
3306necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
3307"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
3308have any device yet where we could complain.]
3309
3310Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
3311the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
3312use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
3313
3314- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
3315		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
3316
3317		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
3318		      also needs to be defined.
3319
3320- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
3321		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
3322
3323- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
3324		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
3325		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
3326		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
3327		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
3328		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
3329
3330- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
3331		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
3332		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
3333		to do this.
3334
3335- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
3336		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
3337		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
3338		present.
3339
3340- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
3341		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
3342		build system checks that the actual size does not
3343		exceed it.
3344
3345Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
3346---------------------------------------------------
3347
3348- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
3349		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
3350
3351- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
3352		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
3353		PowerPC SOCs.
3354
3355- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
3356		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
3357		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
3358
3359- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
3360		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
3361		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
3362		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
3363		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
3364		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
3365		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
3366
3367		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
3368			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
3369
3370- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
3371		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
3372		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
3373		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3374		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3375
3376- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3377		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
3378		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3379		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3380
3381- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
3382		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
3383		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
3384
3385- Floppy Disk Support:
3386		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
3387
3388		the default drive number (default value 0)
3389
3390		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
3391
3392		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
3393		(default value 1)
3394
3395		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
3396
3397		defines the offset of register from address. It
3398		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
3399		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
3400
3401		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
3402		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
3403		default value.
3404
3405		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
3406		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
3407		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
3408		source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent
3409		initializations.
3410
3411- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
3412		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
3413		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
3414		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
3415		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
3416		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
3417		is required.
3418
3419- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
3420		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
3421		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx systems only]
3422
3423- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
3424
3425		Start address of memory area that can be used for
3426		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
3427		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
3428		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
3429		will become available only after programming the
3430		memory controller and running certain initialization
3431		sequences.
3432
3433		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
3434		- MPC8xx: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
3435
3436- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
3437
3438		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
3439		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
3440		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
3441		data is located at the end of the available space
3442		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
3443		GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
3444		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
3445		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
3446
3447	Note:
3448		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
3449		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
3450		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
3451		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
3452		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.
3453
3454- CONFIG_SYS_SCCR:	System Clock and reset Control Register (15-27)
3455
3456- CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM:
3457		SDRAM timing
3458
3459- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA:
3460		periodic timer for refresh
3461

3474		Only scan through and get the devices on the buses.
3475		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
3476		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
3477		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
3478		by coreboot or similar.
3479
3480- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
3481		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
3482
3483- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
3484		Chip has SRIO or not
3485
3486- CONFIG_SRIO1:

3490		Board has SRIO 2 port available
3491
3492- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER
3493		Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE
3494
3495- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT:

3499		Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
3500
3501- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE:
3502		Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region
3503
3504- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
3505		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
3506		a 16 bit bus.
3507		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
3508		Example of drivers that use it:
3509		- drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c
3510		- drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c
3511
3512- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG
3513		Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined
3514		a default value will be used.
3515
3516- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM
3517		Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common
3518		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
3519
3520  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
3521		I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
3522
3523- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
3524		If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
3525		one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
3526		to something your driver can deal with.
3527
3528- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
3529		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
3530		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
3531		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
3532		header files or board specific files.
3533
3534- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
3535		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.

3540- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_BIST
3541		Enable built-in memory test for Freescale DDR controllers.
3542
3543- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
3544		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
3545		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
3546
3547- CONFIG_RMII
3548		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
3549		Note that this is a global option, we can't
3550		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
3551
3552- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
3553		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
3554		The syntax is:
3555
3556		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
3557
3558		Where address/count indicate a memory area
3559		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
3560		area should have.
3561
3562- CONFIG_LOOPW
3563		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
3564		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY).
3565
3566- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
3567		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
3568		"md/mw" commands.
3569		Examples:
3570
3571		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
3572		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
3573
3574		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
3575		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
3576
3577		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
3578		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY).
3579
3580- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
3581		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
3582		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
3583		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
3584		relocate itself into RAM.
3585
3586		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
3587		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
3588		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
3589		these initializations itself.
3590
3591- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT_ONLY
3592		[ARM926EJ-S only] This allows just the call to lowlevel_init()
3593		to be skipped. The normal CP15 init (such as enabling the
3594		instruction cache) is still performed.
3595
3596- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
3597		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
3598		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
3599		compiling a NAND SPL.
3600
3601- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
3602		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
3603		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
3604		It is loaded by the SPL.
3605
3606- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
3607		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
3608		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
3609		previous 4k of the .text section.
3610
3611- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
3612		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
3613		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
3614		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
3615		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
3616		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
3617		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
3618		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
3619
3620- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
3621		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
3622		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
3623
3624- CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC:
3625		Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms
3626
3627- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
3628		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
3629		driver that uses this:
3630		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
3631
3632Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
3633-----------------------------------
3634
3635The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
3636loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
3637This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
3638are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
3639within that device.
3640
3641- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
3642	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
3643	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
3644	is also specified.
3645
3646- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
3647	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
3648	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
3649	is also specified.
3650
3651- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
3652	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
3653	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
3654	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
3655	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
3656
3657- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
3658	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
3659	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
3660	virtual address in NOR flash.
3661
3662- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
3663	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
3664	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
3665
3666- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
3667	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
3668	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
3669
3670- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
3671	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
3672	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
3673	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
3674	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
3675	master's memory space.
3676
3677Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
3678---------------------------------------------------------
3679The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
3680"firmware".
3681This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
3682are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
3683within that device.
3684
3685- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
3686	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
3687
3688Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support:
3689-------------------------------------------
3690The Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support supports the loading of
3691"Debug Server firmware" and triggering SP boot-rom.
3692This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting.
3693
3694- CONFIG_SYS_MC_RSV_MEM_ALIGN
3695	Define alignment of reserved memory MC requires
3696
3697Reproducible builds
3698-------------------
3699
3700In order to achieve reproducible builds, timestamps used in the U-Boot build
3701process have to be set to a fixed value.
3702
3703This is done using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable.
3704SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is to be set on the build host's shell, not as a configuration
3705option for U-Boot or an environment variable in U-Boot.
3706
3707SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH should be set to a number of seconds since the epoch, in UTC.
3708
3709Building the Software:
3710======================
3711
3712Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
3713and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
3714all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
3715(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
3716recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
3717which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
3718
3719If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
3720have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
3721you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
3722Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
3723necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
3724
3725	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
3726	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
3727
3728Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
3729      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
3730      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
3731      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
3732
3733       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
3734
3735      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
3736      be executed on computers running Windows.
3737
3738U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
3739sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
3740is done by typing:
3741
3742	make NAME_defconfig
3743
3744where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
3745rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
3746
3747Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
3748      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
3749      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
3750      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
3751      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
3752
3753      make TQM823L_defconfig
3754	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
3755
3756      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
3757	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
3758
3759      etc.
3760
3761
3762Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
3763images ready for download to / installation on your system:
3764
3765- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
3766- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
3767- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
3768
3769By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
3770in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
3771this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
3772
37731. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
3774
3775	make O=/tmp/build distclean
3776	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
3777	make O=/tmp/build all
3778
37792. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location:
3780
3781	export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build
3782	make distclean
3783	make NAME_defconfig
3784	make all
3785
3786Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment
3787variable.
3788
3789
3790Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
3791for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
3792native "make".
3793
3794
3795If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
3796to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
3797steps:
3798
37991.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
3800    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
3801    the "Makefile" and a "<board>.c".
38022.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
3803    your board.
38043.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
3805    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
38064.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
38075.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
3808    to be installed on your target system.
38096.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
3810    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
3811
3812
3813Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
3814==============================================================
3815
3816If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
3817or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
3818provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
3819the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
3820official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
3821
3822But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
3823cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
3824the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
3825just run the buildman script (tools/buildman/buildman), which will
3826configure and build U-Boot for ALL supported system. Be warned, this
3827will take a while. Please see the buildman README, or run 'buildman -H'
3828for documentation.

3883Monitor Commands - Detailed Description:
3884========================================
3885
3886TODO.
3887
3888For now: just type "help <command>".
3889
3890
3891Environment Variables:
3892======================
3893
3894U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
3895can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
3896
3897Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
3898"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
3899without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
3900environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
3901working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
3902environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
3903
3904Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
3905
3906List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
3907
3908  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
3909
3910  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
3911
3912  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
3913
3914  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
3915
3916  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
3917
3918  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
3919		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
3920		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
3921		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
3922		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
3923		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
3924		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
3925		  bootm_mapsize.
3926
3927  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
3928		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
3929		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
3930		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
3931		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
3932		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
3933		  used otherwise.
3934
3935  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
3936		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
3937		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
3938		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
3939		  environment variable.
3940
3941  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
3942		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
3943		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
3944
3945  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
3946		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
3947		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
3948		  load any image using TFTP
3949
3950  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
3951		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
3952		  be automatically started (by internally calling
3953		  "bootm")
3954
3955		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
3956		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
3957		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
3958		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
3959		  data.
3960
3961  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
3962		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
3963		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
3964		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
3965		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
3966		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
3967		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
3968		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
3969		  access it during the boot procedure.
3970
3971		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
3972		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
3973		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
3974		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
3975		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
3976		  must be accessible by the kernel.
3977
3978  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
3979		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
3980		  defined.
3981
3982  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
3983		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
3984		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
3985		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
3986		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
3987
3988  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
3989		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
3990		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
3991		  is usually what you want since it allows for
3992		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
3993		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
3994		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
3995		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
3996		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
3997		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
3998		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
3999
4000		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
4001		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4002		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4003		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
4004		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4005		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
4006
4007		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
4008
4009		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
4010		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
4011		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
4012		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
4013		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
4014		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
4015		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
4016
4017  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4018
4019  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
4020		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
4021
4022  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
4023
4024  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
4025
4026  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
4027
4028  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
4029
4030  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
4031
4032  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
4033
4034  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
4035		  For example you can do the following
4036
4037		  => setenv ethact FEC
4038		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
4039		  => setenv ethact SCC
4040		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
4041
4042  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4043		  available network interfaces.
4044		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4045
4046  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
4047		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
4048		  When set to "once" the network operation will
4049		  fail when all the available network interfaces
4050		  are tried once without success.
4051		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4052		  themselves.
4053
4054  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
4055
4056  silent_linux  - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by
4057		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
4058		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
4059		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
4060		  is silent.
4061
4062  tftpsrcp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
4063		  UDP source port.
4064
4065  tftpdstp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
4066		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
4067
4068  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4069		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
4070
4071  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4072		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4073		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4074		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4075		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4076		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4077		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
4078
4079  tftptimeoutcountmax	- maximum count of TFTP timeouts (no
4080		  unit, minimum value = 0). Defines how many timeouts
4081		  can happen during a single file transfer before that
4082		  transfer is aborted. The default is 10, and 0 means
4083		  'no timeouts allowed'. Increasing this value may help
4084		  downloads succeed with high packet loss rates, or with
4085		  unreliable TFTP servers or client hardware.
4086
4087  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
4088		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
4089		  VLAN tagged frames.
4090
4091  bootpretryperiod	- Period during which BOOTP/DHCP sends retries.
4092		  Unsigned value, in milliseconds. If not set, the period will
4093		  be either the default (28000), or a value based on
4094		  CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT, if defined. This value has
4095		  precedence over the valu based on CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT.
4096
4097The following image location variables contain the location of images
4098used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4099not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4100variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4101server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4102loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4103flash or offset in NAND flash.
4104
4105*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4106boards currently use other variables for these purposes, and some
4107boards use these variables for other purposes.
4108
4109Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
4110-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
4111u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
4112Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
4113device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
4114ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
4115
4116The following environment variables may be used and automatically
4117updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
4118depending the information provided by your boot server:
4119
4120  bootfile	- see above
4121  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
4122  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
4123  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
4124  hostname	- Target hostname
4125  ipaddr	- see above
4126  netmask	- Subnet Mask
4127  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
4128  serverip	- see above
4129
4130
4131There are two special Environment Variables:
4132
4133  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
4134		  as type string and/or serial number
4135  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
4136
4137These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4138the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4139once they have been set once.
4140
4141
4142Further special Environment Variables:
4143
4144  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4145		  with the "version" command. This variable is
4146		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
4147
4148
4149Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
4150only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
4151
4152
4153Callback functions for environment variables:
4154---------------------------------------------
4155
4156For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
4157when their values are changed.  This functionality allows functions to
4158be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
4159deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
4160effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
4161
4162The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
4163U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
4164
4165These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
4166static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
4167in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
4168associations.  The list must be in the following format:
4169
4170	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
4171	list = entry[,list]
4172
4173If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
4174Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
4175
4176Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
4177with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
4178override any association in the static list. You can define
4179CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
4180".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4181
4182If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
4183regular expression. This allows multiple variables to be connected to
4184the same callback without explicitly listing them all out.
4185
4186
4187Command Line Parsing:
4188=====================
4189
4190There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
4191the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
4192
4193Old, simple command line parser:
4194--------------------------------
4195
4196- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
4197- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
4198- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
4199- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
4200  for example:
4201	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
4202- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
4203	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
4204
4205Hush shell:
4206-----------
4207
4208- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4209  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4210  until...do...done, ...
4211- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4212  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4213  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4214  command
4215
4216General rules:
4217--------------
4218
4219(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4220    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4221    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4222    executed anyway.
4223
4224(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
4225    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
4226    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4227    variables are not executed.
4228
4229Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4230=======================================
4231
4232Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
4233such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
4234"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
4235
4236Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4237MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4238"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
4239
4240If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4241in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4242ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4243variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
4244
4245o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4246  environment, the SROM's address is used.
4247
4248o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4249  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4250  used.
4251
4252o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4253  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
4254
4255o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4256  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4257  warning is printed.
4258
4259o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4260  is raised. If CONFIG_NET_RANDOM_ETHADDR is defined, then in this case
4261  a random, locally-assigned MAC is used.
4262
4263If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
4264will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
4265may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4266The naming convention is as follows:
4267"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
4268
4269Image Formats:
4270==============
4271
4272U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
4273images in two formats:
4274
4275New uImage format (FIT)
4276-----------------------
4277
4278Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
4279to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
4280components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
4281SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
4282
4283
4284Old uImage format
4285-----------------
4286
4287Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
4288preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
4289details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
4290
4291* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
4292  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
4293  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
4294  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
4295  INTEGRITY).
4296* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, Intel x86,
4297  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
4298  Currently supported: ARM, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
4299* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
4300* Load Address
4301* Entry Point
4302* Image Name
4303* Image Timestamp
4304
4305The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
4306and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
4307CRC32 checksums.
4308
4309
4310Linux Support:
4311==============
4312
4313Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
4314easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4315U-Boot.
4316
4317U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4318special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4319"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4320instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
4321serves several purposes:
4322
4323- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4324  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4325  Flash memory footprint)
4326
4327- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
4328  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
4329
4330- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4331  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4332  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4333  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4334  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4335  software is easier now.
4336
4337
4338Linux HOWTO:
4339============
4340
4341Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4342---------------------------------------
4343
4344U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4345configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4346(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4347Linux :-).
4348
4349But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
4350
4351Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
4352include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
4353Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
4354and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
4355as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
4356
4357Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
4358If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
4359is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
4360doc/driver-model.
4361
4362
4363Configuring the Linux kernel:
4364-----------------------------
4365
4366No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
4367device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
4368
4369
4370Building a Linux Image:
4371-----------------------
4372
4373With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
4374not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
4375"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
4376U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
4377which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
4378100% compatible format.
4379
4380Example:
4381
4382	make TQM850L_defconfig
4383	make oldconfig
4384	make dep
4385	make uImage
4386
4387The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
4388encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
4389CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
4390
4391* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
4392
4393* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
4394
4395	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
4396				 -R .note -R .comment \
4397				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
4398
4399* compress the binary image:
4400
4401	gzip -9 linux.bin
4402
4403* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
4404
4405	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
4406		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
4407		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
4408
4409
4410The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
4411with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
4412combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
4413byte header containing information about target architecture,
4414operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
4415stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
4416
4417"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
4418print the header information, or to build new images.
4419
4420In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
4421contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
4422checksum verification:
4423
4424	tools/mkimage -l image
4425	  -l ==> list image header information
4426
4427The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
4428from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
4429
4430	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
4431		      -n name -d data_file image
4432	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
4433	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
4434	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4435	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
4436	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
4437	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
4438	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
4439	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
4440
4441Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
4442address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
4443kernel version:
4444
4445- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
4446- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
4447
4448So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
4449
4450	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
4451	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
4452	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
4453	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
4454	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4455	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4456	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
4457	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
4458	Load Address: 0x00000000
4459	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4460
4461To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
4462
4463	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
4464	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4465	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4466	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
4467	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
4468	Load Address: 0x00000000
4469	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4470
4471NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
4472speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
4473needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
4474need to be uncompressed:
4475
4476	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
4477	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
4478	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
4479	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
4480	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
4481	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4482	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4483	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
4484	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
4485	Load Address: 0x00000000
4486	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4487
4488
4489Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
4490when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
4491
4492	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
4493	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
4494	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
4495	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
4496	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
4497	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
4498	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
4499	Load Address: 0x00000000
4500	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4501
4502The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
4503option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
4504option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
4505from the image:
4506
4507	tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file
4508	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file'
4509	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4510	  -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image'
4511
4512
4513Installing a Linux Image:
4514-------------------------
4515
4516To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
4517you must convert the image to S-Record format:
4518
4519	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
4520
4521The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
4522image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
4523address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
4524specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
4525command.
4526
4527Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
4528TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
4529
4530	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
4531
4532	.......... done
4533	Erased 8 sectors
4534
4535	=> loads 40100000
4536	## Ready for S-Record download ...
4537	~>examples/image.srec
4538	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
4539	...
4540	15989 15990 15991 15992
4541	[file transfer complete]
4542	[connected]
4543	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
4544
4545
4546You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
4547this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
4548corruption happened:
4549
4550	=> imi 40100000
4551
4552	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
4553	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L

4557	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
4558	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
4559
4560
4561Boot Linux:
4562-----------
4563
4564The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
4565memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
4566of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
4567parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
4568"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
4569
4570
4571	=> printenv bootargs
4572	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
4573
4574	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
4575
4576	=> printenv bootargs
4577	bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

4595If you want to boot a Linux kernel with initial RAM disk, you pass
4596the memory addresses of both the kernel and the initrd image (PPBCOOT

4644Boot Linux and pass a flat device tree:
4645-----------
4646
4647First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section
4648titled "Linux Kernel Interface" above for a more in depth explanation. The
4649following is an example of how to start a kernel and pass an updated
4650flat device tree:

4693More About U-Boot Image Types:
4694------------------------------
4695
4696U-Boot supports the following image types:
4697
4698   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
4699	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
4700	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
4701	the Standalone Program.
4702   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
4703	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
4704	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
4705	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
4706	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
4707   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
4708	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
4709	being started.
4710   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
4711	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
4712	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
4713	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
4714	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
4715	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
4716
4717	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
4718	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
4719	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
4720	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
4721	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
4722	a multiple of 4 bytes).
4723
4724   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
4725	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
4726	flash memory.
4727
4728   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
4729	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
4730	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
4731	as command interpreter.
4732
4733Booting the Linux zImage:
4734-------------------------
4735
4736On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
4737using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
4738as the syntax of "bootm" command.
4739
4740Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
4741kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
4742address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
4743format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
4744
4745
4746Standalone HOWTO:
4747=================
4748
4749One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
4750run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
4751U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
4752
4753Two simple examples are included with the sources:
4754
4755"Hello World" Demo:
4756-------------------
4757
4758'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
4759application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
4760It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
4761like that:
4762
4763	=> loads
4764	## Ready for S-Record download ...
4765	~>examples/hello_world.srec
4766	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
4767	[file transfer complete]
4768	[connected]
4769	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
4770
4771	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
4772	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
4773	Hello World
4774	argc = 7
4775	argv[0] = "40004"
4776	argv[1] = "Hello"
4777	argv[2] = "World!"
4778	argv[3] = "This"
4779	argv[4] = "is"
4780	argv[5] = "a"
4781	argv[6] = "test."
4782	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
4783	Hit any key to exit ...
4784
4785	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
4786
4787Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
4788handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
4789Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
4790The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
4791character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
4792controlled by the following keys:
4793
4794	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
4795	b - enable interrupts and start timer
4796	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
4797	q - quit application
4798
4799	=> loads

4834Minicom warning:
4835================
4836
4837Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
4838"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
4839consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
4840Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
4841especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
4842use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
4843http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
4844for help with kermit.
4845
4846
4847Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
4848configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
4849
4850	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
4851	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N

4855NetBSD Notes:
4856=============
4857
4858Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
4859(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
4860
4861Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
4862NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
4863need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
4864Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
4865attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
4866missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
4867
4868	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include

4877Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
4878stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
4879proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
4880tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
4881meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz

4884Implementation Internals:
4885=========================
4886
4887The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
4888implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
4889inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
4890hardware.
4891
4892
4893Initial Stack, Global Data:
4894---------------------------
4895
4896The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
4897starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
4898system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
4899This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
4900is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
4901at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
4902options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
4903models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
4904MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
4905locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
4906
4907	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
4908	U-Boot mailing list:
4909
4910	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
4911	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>

4913	...
4914
4915	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
4916	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
4917	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
4918	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
4919	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
4920	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
4921	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
4922	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
4923
4924	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
4925	is another option for the system designer to use as an
4926	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
4927	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
4928	board designers haven't used it for something that would
4929	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
4930	used.
4931
4932	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
4933	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
4934	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
4935	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
4936	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
4937	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
4938	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
4939	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
4940	you get the config right.

4944
4945It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
4946code for the initialization procedures:
4947
4948* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
4949  to write it.
4950
4951* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized
4952  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
4953  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
4954
4955* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
4956  that.
4957
4958Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
4959normal global data to share information between the code. But it
4960turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
4961simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
4962functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
4963functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
4964the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
4965place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
4966reserve for this purpose.
4967
4968When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
4969relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
4970GCC's implementation.
4971
4972For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
4973	R1:	stack pointer
4974	R2:	reserved for system use
4975	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
4976	R5-R10: parameter passing
4977	R13:	small data area pointer
4978	R30:	GOT pointer
4979	R31:	frame pointer
4980
4981	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
4982	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
4983	going back and forth between asm and C)
4984
4985    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
4986
4987    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
4988    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
4989    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
4990    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
4991    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
4992    624 text + 127 data).
4993
4994On ARM, the following registers are used:
4995
4996	R0:	function argument word/integer result
4997	R1-R3:	function argument word
4998	R9:	platform specific
4999	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
5000	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
5001	R12:	temporary workspace
5002	R13:	stack pointer
5003	R14:	link register
5004	R15:	program counter
5005
5006    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
5007
5008    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
5009
5010On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
5011	http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
5012
5013    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
5014
5015    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
5016    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
5017
5018On NDS32, the following registers are used:
5019
5020	R0-R1:	argument/return
5021	R2-R5:	argument
5022	R15:	temporary register for assembler
5023	R16:	trampoline register
5024	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
5025	R29:	global pointer (GP)
5026	R30:	link register (LP)
5027	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
5028	PC:	program counter (PC)
5029
5030    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
5031
5032NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
5033or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
5034
5035Memory Management:
5036------------------
5037
5038U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5039MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
5040
5041The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5042controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5043memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5044physical memory banks.
5045
5046U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5047TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5048booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5049to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
5050memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
5051configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5052Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
5053
5054Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5055of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
5056
5057So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5058this:
5059
5060	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
5061	      :
5062	0x0000 1FFF
5063	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
5064	      :
5065	      :
5066
5067	      :
5068	      :
5069	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5070	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
5071	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
5072	      :
5073	0x00FD FFFF
5074	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5075	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5076	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5077	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
5078
5079
5080System Initialization:
5081----------------------
5082
5083In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
5084(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
5085configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory.
5086To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5087To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5088initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5089which provide such a feature like), or in a locked part of the data
5090cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, the caches and
5091the SIU.
5092
5093Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5094preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5095(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5096on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5097programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5098simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5099banks.
5100
5101When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
5102different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5103bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
51040x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5105contiguous memory starting from 0.
5106
5107Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5108and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5109Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5110pages, and the final stack is set up.
5111
5112Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5113until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5114running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5115new address in RAM.

5191
5192Coding Standards:
5193-----------------
5194
5195All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
5196coding style; see the kernel coding style guide at
5197https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/coding-style.html, and the
5198script "scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
5199
5200Source files originating from a different project (for example the
5201MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
5202reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
5203sources.
5204
5205Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
5206Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
5207in your code.
5208
5209Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
5210- remove any trailing white space
5211- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
5212- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
5213- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
5214- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
5215
5216Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
5217with a request to reformat the changes.
5218
5219
5220Submitting Patches:
5221-------------------
5222
5223Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
5224establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
5225may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
5226
5227Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
5228
5229Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
5230see https://lists.denx.de/listinfo/u-boot
5231
5232When you send a patch, please include the following information with
5233it:
5234
5235* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
5236  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
5237  patch actually fixes something.
5238
5239* For new features: a description of the feature and your
5240  implementation.
5241
5242* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
5243
5244* For major contributions, add a MAINTAINERS file with your
5245  information and associated file and directory references.
5246
5247* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
5248  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
5249
5250* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5251  document these in the README file.
5252
5253* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5254  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
5255  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
5256  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5257  with some other mail clients.
5258
5259  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5260  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5261  GNU diff.
5262
5263  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5264  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5265  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
5266  affected files).
5267
5268  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5269  and compressed attachments must not be used.
5270
5271* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
5272  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
5273
5274* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
5275  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
5276
5277
5278Notes:
5279
5280* Before sending the patch, run the buildman script on your patched
5281  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5282  for any of the boards.
5283
5284* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5285  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5286  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
5287
5288* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5289  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5290  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5291  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5292  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5293  modification.
5294
5295* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
5296  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
5297  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
5298  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
