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

| |
| Software Configuration: |
| ======================= |
| |
| Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the |
| rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible. |
| |
| There are two classes of configuration variables: |
| |
| * Configuration _OPTIONS_: |
| These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with |
| "CONFIG_". |
| |
| * Configuration _SETTINGS_: |
| These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if |
| you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with |
| "CONFIG_SYS_". |
| |
| Previously, all configuration was done by hand, which involved creating |
| symbolic links and editing configuration files manually. More recently, |
| U-Boot has added the Kbuild infrastructure used by the Linux kernel, |
| allowing you to use the "make menuconfig" command to configure your |
| build. |
| |
| |
| Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: |
| --------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default |
| configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig". |
| |
| Example: For a TQM823L module type: |
| |
| cd u-boot |
| make TQM823L_defconfig |
| |
| Note: If you're looking for the default configuration file for a board |
| you're sure used to be there but is now missing, check the file |
| doc/README.scrapyard for a list of no longer supported boards. |
| |
| Sandbox Environment: |
| -------------------- |
| |
| U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox' |
| board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture- |
| specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to |
| run some of U-Boot's tests. |
| |
| See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details. |
| |
| |
| Board Initialisation Flow: |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| This is the intended start-up flow for boards. This should apply for both |
| SPL and U-Boot proper (i.e. they both follow the same rules). |
| |
| Note: "SPL" stands for "Secondary Program Loader," which is explained in |
| more detail later in this file. |
| |
| At present, SPL mostly uses a separate code path, but the function names |
| and roles of each function are the same. Some boards or architectures |
| may not conform to this. At least most ARM boards which use |
| CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK conform to this. |
| |
| Execution typically starts with an architecture-specific (and possibly |
| CPU-specific) start.S file, such as: |
| |
| - arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S |
| - arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc83xx/start.S |
| - arch/mips/cpu/start.S |
| |
| and so on. From there, three functions are called; the purpose and |
| limitations of each of these functions are described below. |
| |
| lowlevel_init(): |
| - purpose: essential init to permit execution to reach board_init_f() |
| - no global_data or BSS |
| - there is no stack (ARMv7 may have one but it will soon be removed) |
| - must not set up SDRAM or use console |
| - must only do the bare minimum to allow execution to continue to |
| board_init_f() |
| - this is almost never needed |
| - return normally from this function |
| |
| board_init_f(): |
| - purpose: set up the machine ready for running board_init_r(): |
| i.e. SDRAM and serial UART |
| - global_data is available |
| - stack is in SRAM |
| - BSS is not available, so you cannot use global/static variables, |
| only stack variables and global_data |
| |
| Non-SPL-specific notes: |
| - dram_init() is called to set up DRAM. If already done in SPL this |
| can do nothing |
| |
| SPL-specific notes: |
| - you can override the entire board_init_f() function with your own |
| version as needed. |
| - preloader_console_init() can be called here in extremis |
| - should set up SDRAM, and anything needed to make the UART work |
| - these is no need to clear BSS, it will be done by crt0.S |
| - must return normally from this function (don't call board_init_r() |
| directly) |
| |
| Here the BSS is cleared. For SPL, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined, then at |
| this point the stack and global_data are relocated to below |
| CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR. For non-SPL, U-Boot is relocated to run at the top of |
| memory. |
| |
| board_init_r(): |
| - purpose: main execution, common code |
| - global_data is available |
| - SDRAM is available |
| - BSS is available, all static/global variables can be used |
| - execution eventually continues to main_loop() |
| |
| Non-SPL-specific notes: |
| - U-Boot is relocated to the top of memory and is now running from |
| there. |
| |
| SPL-specific notes: |
| - stack is optionally in SDRAM, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined and |
| CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR points into SDRAM |
| - preloader_console_init() can be called here - typically this is |
| done by defining CONFIG_SPL_BOARD_INIT and then supplying a |
| spl_board_init() function containing this call |
| - loads U-Boot or (in falcon mode) Linux |
| |
| |
| |
| Configuration Options: |
| ---------------------- |
| |
| Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all |
| such information is kept in a configuration file |
| "include/configs/<board_name>.h". |
| |
| Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in |
| "include/configs/TQM823L.h". |
| |
| |
| Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux |
| kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to |
| build a config tool - later. |
| |
| |
| The following options need to be configured: |
| |
| - CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX. |
| |
| - Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS. |
| |
| - CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined) |
| Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002 |
| |
| - CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) |
| Define exactly one of |
| CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD |
| --- FIXME --- not tested yet: |
| CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P, |
| CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50 |
| |
| - Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) |
| Define exactly one of |
| CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102 |
| |
| - Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) |
| Define one or more of |
| CONFIG_CMA302 |
| |
| - Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined) |
| Define one or more of |
| CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on |
| the LCD display every second with |
| a "rotator" |\-/|\-/ |
| |
| - Marvell Family Member |
| CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable |
| multiple fs option at one time |
| for marvell soc family |
| |
| - 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU) |
| CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if |
| get_gclk_freq() cannot work |
| e.g. if there is no 32KHz |
| reference PIT/RTC clock |
| CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK |
| or XTAL/EXTAL) |
| |
| - 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU): |
| CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN |
| CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX |
| CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT |
| See doc/README.MPC866 |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK |
| |
| Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead |
| of relying on the correctness of the configured |
| values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure |
| the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note |
| that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz |
| RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN) |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE |
| |
| Define this option if you want to enable the |
| ICache only when Code runs from RAM. |
| |
| - 85xx CPU Options: |
| CONFIG_SYS_PPC64 |
| |
| Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements |
| the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR |
| compliance, among other possible reasons. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV |
| |
| Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the |
| system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ |
| devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT |
| |
| Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device |
| tree nodes for the given platform. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB |
| |
| Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work |
| around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger |
| support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where |
| breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this |
| symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this |
| purpose. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 |
| |
| Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set, |
| then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional) |
| |
| Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR) |
| for which the A004510 workaround should be applied. |
| |
| The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision |
| of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus |
| p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls |
| whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set. |
| |
| See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about |
| this erratum. |
| |
| CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND |
| Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only |
| required during NOR boot. |
| |
| CONFIG_A008044_WORKAROUND |
| Enables a workaround for T1040/T1042 erratum A008044. It is only |
| required during NAND boot and valid for Rev 1.0 SoC revision |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY |
| |
| This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600 |
| according to the A004510 workaround. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR |
| This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is |
| connected exclusively to the DSP cores. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR |
| This value denotes start offset of M2 memory |
| which is directly connected to the DSP core. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR |
| This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly |
| connected to the DSP core. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT |
| This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK |
| Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's. |
| In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply |
| clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F |
| This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the |
| time of U-Boot entry and is required to be re-initialized. |
| |
| CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP |
| Indicates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is |
| supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up. |
| |
| - Generic CPU options: |
| CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA |
| Defines global data is initialized in generic board board_init_f(). |
| If this macro is defined, global data is created and cleared in |
| generic board board_init_f(). Without this macro, architecture/board |
| should initialize global data before calling board_init_f(). |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN |
| |
| Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those |
| values is arch specific. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR |

| pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before |
| relocation. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE |
| |
| Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU. |
| See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h. |

| clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD |
| |
| Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction |
| set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides |

| NOTE: The following can be machine specific errata. These |
| do have ability to provide rudimentary version and machine |
| specific checks, but expect no product checks. |
| CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_430973 |
| CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_454179 |
| CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_621766 |
| CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_798870 |
| CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_801819 |
| |
| - Tegra SoC options: |
| CONFIG_TEGRA_SUPPORT_NON_SECURE |
| |
| Support executing U-Boot in non-secure (NS) mode. Certain |
| impossible actions will be skipped if the CPU is in NS mode, |
| such as ARM architectural timer initialization. |
| |
| - Linux Kernel Interface: |
| CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ |
| |
| U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz |
| internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux |
| kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the |
| bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable |
| "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot |
| converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the |
| Linux kernel. |
| When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of |
| "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the |
| default environment. |
| |
| CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only] |
| |
| When transferring memsize parameter to Linux, some versions |
| expect it to be in bytes, others in MB. |
| Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes. |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT |
| |
| New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be |
| passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware |
| concepts). |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT |
| * New libfdt-based support |
| * Adds the "fdt" command |
| * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt |
| |
| OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for |
| MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). |
| OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for |
| MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). |
| OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency. |
| OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device |
| |
| boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC |
| addresses |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP |
| |
| Board code has addition modification that it wants to make |
| to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP |
| |
| Other code has addition modification that it wants to make |
| to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel. |
| This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting |
| the kernel. |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU |
| |
| This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot |
| param header, the default value is zero if undefined. |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP |
| |
| U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. |
| If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot |
| removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, |
| so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and |
| crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where |
| no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. |
| |
| CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory] |
| |
| This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one |
| machine type and must be used to specify the machine type |
| number as it appears in the ARM machine registry |
| (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/). |
| Only boards that have multiple machine types supported |
| in a single configuration file and the machine type is |
| runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting. |
| |
| - vxWorks boot parameters: |
| |
| bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following |
| environments variables: bootdev, bootfile, ipaddr, netmask, |
| serverip, gatewayip, hostname, othbootargs. |
| It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile. |
| |
| Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride |
| the defaults discussed just above. |
| |
| - Cache Configuration: |
| CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot |
| CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot |
| CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot |
| |
| - Cache Configuration for ARM: |
| CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache |
| controller |
| CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310 |
| controller register space |
| |
| - Serial Ports: |
| CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL |
| |
| Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs. |
| |
| CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL |
| |
| Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs. |
| |
| CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK |
| |
| If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to |
| the clock speed of the UARTs. |
| |
| CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS |
| |
| If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board, |
| define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported) |
| port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h |
| |
| CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL |
| |
| Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver. |
| Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver |
| |
| - Console Interface: |
| Depending on board, define exactly one serial port |
| (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2, |
| CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial |
| console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE |
| |
| Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial |
| port routines must be defined elsewhere |
| (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...) |
| |
| CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE |
| Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following |
| defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042) |
| VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation |
| (default big endian) |
| VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports |
| rectangle fill |
| (cf. smiLynxEM) |
| VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports |
| bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM) |
| VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns |
| (cols=pitch) |
| VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows |
| VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel |
| VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format |
| (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c) |
| VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address |
| VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct |
| (i.e. rx51_kp_init()) |
| VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct |
| (i.e. rx51_kp_tstc) |
| VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct |
| (i.e. rx51_kp_getc) |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in |
| upper left corner |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of |
| linux_logo.h for logo. |
| Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO |
| CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO |
| additional board info beside |
| the logo |
| CONFIG_HIDE_LOGO_VERSION |
| do not display bootloader |
| version string |
| |
| When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support |
| a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control, |
| erase functions and limited graphics rendition control). |
| |
| When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is |
| default i/o. Serial console can be forced with |
| environment 'console=serial'. |
| |
| When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console |
| messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with |
| the "silent" environment variable. See |
| doc/README.silent for more information. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default |
| is 0x00. |
| CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default |
| is 0xa0. |
| |
| - Console Baudrate: |
| CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps |
| Select one of the baudrates listed in |
| CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. |
| CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale |
| |
| - Console Rx buffer length |
| With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define |
| the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC. |
| This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible. |
| If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE |
| must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for |
| the SMC. |
| |
| - Pre-Console Buffer: |
| Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART |
| initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. |
| Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to |
| buffer any console messages prior to the console being |
| initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ |
| bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is |
| a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ |
| bytes are output before the console is initialised, the |
| earlier bytes are discarded. |
| |
| Note that when printing the buffer a copy is made on the |
| stack so CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ must fit on the stack. |
| |
| 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if |
| CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2 |
| |
| - Autoboot Command: |
| CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND |
| Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled; |
| define a command string that is automatically executed |
| when no character is read on the console interface |
| within "Boot Delay" after reset. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTARGS |
| This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm |
| command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the |
| environment value "bootargs". |
| |
| CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT |
| The value of these goes into the environment as |
| "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used |
| as a convenience, when switching between booting from |
| RAM and NFS. |
| |
| - Bootcount: |
| CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT |
| Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot |
| cycle, see: |
| http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV |
| If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware |
| "bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a |
| saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable |
| "upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is |
| 0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is |
| 1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment. |
| So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available" |
| and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully. |
| |
| - Pre-Boot Commands: |
| CONFIG_PREBOOT |
| |
| When this option is #defined, the existence of the |
| environment variable "preboot" will be checked |
| immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY |
| countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp. |
| entering interactive mode. |
| |
| This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is |
| automatically generated or modified. For an example |
| see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is |
| modified when the user holds down a certain |
| combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when |
| booting the systems |
| |
| - Serial Download Echo Mode: |
| CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO |
| If defined to 1, all characters received during a |
| serial download (using the "loads" command) are |
| echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal |
| emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take |
| time on others. This setting #define's the initial |
| value of the "loads_echo" environment variable. |
| |
| - Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined) |
| CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE |
| Select one of the baudrates listed in |
| CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. |
| |
| - Monitor Functions: |
| Monitor commands can be included or excluded |
| from the build by using the #include files |
| <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted |
| commands, or adding #define's for wanted commands. |
| |
| The default command configuration includes all commands |
| except those marked below with a "*". |

| EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network |
| support you can write: |
| |
| #include "config_cmd_all.h" |
| #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET |
| |
| Other Commands: |
| fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT |
| |
| Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands |
| (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know |
| what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data |
| cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or |
| 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be |
| uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other |
| systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an |
| initial stack and some data. |
| |
| |
| XXX - this list needs to get updated! |
| |
| - Removal of commands |
| If no commands are needed to boot, you can disable |
| CONFIG_CMDLINE to remove them. In this case, the command line |
| will not be available, and when U-Boot wants to execute the |
| boot command (on start-up) it will call board_run_command() |
| instead. This can reduce image size significantly for very |
| simple boot procedures. |
| |
| - Regular expression support: |
| CONFIG_REGEX |
| If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against |
| the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library, |
| which adds regex support to some commands, as for |
| example "env grep" and "setexpr". |
| |
| - Device tree: |
| CONFIG_OF_CONTROL |
| If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree |
| to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically |
| compiled #defines in the board file. This option is |
| experimental and only available on a few boards. The device |
| tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. |
| |
| U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can |
| be done using one of the two options below: |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_EMBED |
| If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree |
| binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the |
| board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file |
| is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through |
| the global data structure as gd->blob. |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE |
| If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree |
| binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific |
| code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: |
| |
| cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin |
| |
| and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called |
| u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can |
| still use the individual files if you need something more |
| exotic. |
| |
| - Watchdog: |
| CONFIG_WATCHDOG |
| If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog |
| support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC |
| specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 |
| CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR |
| register. When supported for a specific SoC is |
| available, then no further board specific code should |
| be needed to use it. |
| |
| CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG |
| When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used |
| SoC, then define this variable and provide board |
| specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. |
| |
| CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT |
| specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds. |
| |
| - U-Boot Version: |
| CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE |
| If this variable is defined, an environment variable |
| named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot |
| version as printed by the "version" command. |
| Any change to this variable will be reverted at the |
| next reset. |
| |
| - Real-Time Clock: |
| |
| When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC |
| has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the |
| following options: |
| |
| CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx |
| CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS1339 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC |
| CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337 |
| CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on |
| RV3029 RTC. |
| |
| Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface |
| must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. |
| |
| - GPIO Support: |
| CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO |
| |
| The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of |
| chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of |
| pins supported by a particular chip. |
| |
| Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface |
| must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. |
| |
| - I/O tracing: |
| When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O |
| accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out |
| to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is |
| useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that |
| the driver behaves the same way before and after a code |
| change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To |
| add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>' |
| to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test. |
| |
| Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below. |
| Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will |
| still continue to operate. |
| |
| iotrace is enabled |
| Start: 10000000 (buffer start address) |
| Size: 00010000 (buffer size) |
| Offset: 00000120 (current buffer offset) |
| Output: 10000120 (start + offset) |
| Count: 00000018 (number of trace records) |
| CRC32: 9526fb66 (CRC32 of all trace records) |
| |
| - Timestamp Support: |
| |
| When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp |
| (date and time) of an image is printed by image |
| commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is |
| automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE . |
| |
| - Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported: |
| Zero or more of the following: |
| CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table. |
| CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the |
| Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc. |
| CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc. |
| CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the |
| bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see |
| disk/part_efi.c |
| CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table. |
| |
| If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or |
| CONFIG_SCSI) you must configure support for at |
| least one non-MTD partition type as well. |
| |
| - IDE Reset method: |
| CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several |
| board configurations files but used nowhere! |
| |
| CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will |
| be performed by calling the function |
| ide_set_reset(int reset) |
| which has to be defined in a board specific file |
| |
| - ATAPI Support: |
| CONFIG_ATAPI |
| |
| Set this to enable ATAPI support. |
| |
| - LBA48 Support |
| CONFIG_LBA48 |
| |
| Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB |
| Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA. |
| Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only' |
| support disks up to 2.1TB. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA: |
| When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses. |
| Default is 32bit. |
| |
| - SCSI Support: |
| At the moment only there is only support for the |
| SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define |
| CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it. |

| Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the |
| command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and |
| attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print |
| it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty |
| can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to |
| appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a |
| Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device. |
| If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate |
| a Linux host by |
| # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID |
| else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment |
| variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following |
| might be defined in YourBoardName.h |
| |
| CONFIG_USB_DEVICE |
| Define this to build a UDC device |
| |
| CONFIG_USB_TTY |
| Define this to have a tty type of device available to |
| talk to the UDC device |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_HS |
| Define this to enable the high speed support for usb |
| device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine |
| int is_usbd_high_speed(void) |
| also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll |
| whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full |
| speed. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV |
| Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to |
| be set to usbtty. |
| |
| mpc8xx: |

| |
| CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH |
| Derive USB clock from brgclk |
| - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04 |
| |
| If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to |
| define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h |
| or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define |
| CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME, |
| CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot |
| should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host. |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER |
| Define this string as the name of your company for |
| - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company" |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME |
| Define this string as the name of your product |
| - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device" |
| |

| to avoid polluting the USB namespace. |
| - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID |
| Define this as the unique Product ID |
| for your device |
| - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF |
| |
| - ULPI Layer Support: |
| The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via |
| the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY |
| via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and |
| the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based |
| viewport is supported. |
| To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and |
| CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. |
| If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the |
| standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to |
| the appropriate value in Hz. |
| |
| - MMC Support: |
| The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To |
| enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be |
| accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device |
| to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is |
| enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with |
| the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT. |
| |
| CONFIG_SH_MMCIF |
| Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller |
| |
| CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR |
| Define the base address of MMCIF registers |

| |
| CONFIG_CMD_DFU |
| This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have |
| U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB. This command |
| requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be |
| set and define the alt settings to expose to the host. |
| |
| CONFIG_DFU_MMC |
| This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU. |
| |
| CONFIG_DFU_NAND |
| This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU. |
| |
| CONFIG_DFU_RAM |
| This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU. |
| Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but |
| allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage, |
| one that would help mostly the developer. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE |
| Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the |
| raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer |
| configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable |
| through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE |
| When updating files rather than the raw storage device, |
| we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write |
| the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define |
| this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer. |
| Default is 4 MiB if undefined. |
| |
| DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT |
| Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the |
| host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending |
| a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device. |
| |
| DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT |
| Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when |
| entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before |
| sending again an USB request to the device. |
| |
| - USB Device Android Fastboot support: |
| CONFIG_USB_FUNCTION_FASTBOOT |
| This enables the USB part of the fastboot gadget |
| |
| CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT |
| This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android |
| fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB |
| protocol for downloading images, flashing and device control |
| used on Android devices. |
| See doc/README.android-fastboot for more information. |
| |
| CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE |
| This enables support for booting images which use the Android |
| image format header. |
| |
| CONFIG_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR |
| The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for |
| downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for |
| downloaded images. |
| |
| CONFIG_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE |
| The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for |
| downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a |
| platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot. |
| |
| CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH |
| The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing |
| the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define |
| this to enable the "fastboot flash" command. |
| |
| CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV |
| The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information |
| regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to |
| the eMMC device that fastboot should use to store the image. |
| |
| CONFIG_FASTBOOT_GPT_NAME |
| The fastboot "flash" command supports writing the downloaded |
| image to the Protective MBR and the Primary GUID Partition |
| Table. (Additionally, this downloaded image is post-processed |
| to generate and write the Backup GUID Partition Table.) |
| This occurs when the specified "partition name" on the |
| "fastboot flash" command line matches this value. |
| Default is GPT_ENTRY_NAME (currently "gpt") if undefined. |
| |
| CONFIG_FASTBOOT_MBR_NAME |
| The fastboot "flash" command supports writing the downloaded |
| image to DOS MBR. |
| This occurs when the "partition name" specified on the |
| "fastboot flash" command line matches this value. |
| If not defined the default value "mbr" is used. |
| |
| - Journaling Flash filesystem support: |
| CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE, |
| CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV |
| Define these for a default partition on a NAND device |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR, |
| CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS |
| Define these for a default partition on a NOR device |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART |
| Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a |
| function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num) |
| |
| If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1 |
| to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you |
| have not defined a custom partition |
| |
| - FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support: |
| CONFIG_FAT_WRITE |
| |
| Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a |
| file in FAT formatted partition. |
| |
| This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the |
| user to write files to FAT. |
| |
| CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support |
| CONFIG_CMD_CBFS |
| |
| Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot |
| filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls |
| and cbfsload. |
| |
| - FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size: |
| CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE |
| |
| Define the max cluster size for fat operations else |
| a default value of 65536 will be defined. |
| |
| - Keyboard Support: |
| See Kconfig help for available keyboard drivers. |
| |
| CONFIG_KEYBOARD |
| |
| Define this to enable a custom keyboard support. |
| This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be |
| defined in your board-specific files. This option is deprecated |
| and is only used by novena. For new boards, use driver model |
| instead. |
| |
| - Video support: |
| CONFIG_VIDEO |
| |
| Define this to enable video support (for output to |
| video). |
| |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000 |
| |
| Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip |
| |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM |
| Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The |
| video output is selected via environment 'videoout' |
| (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is |
| assumed. |
| |
| For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is |
| selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways |
| are possible: |
| - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers. |
| Following standard modes are supported (* is default): |
| |
| Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024 |
| -------------+--------------------------------------------- |
| 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307 |

| 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B |
| -------------+--------------------------------------------- |
| (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;) |
| |
| - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed |
| from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c) |
| |
| |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806 |
| Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp |
| and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP |
| or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP |
| |
| CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB |
| Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for |
| SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU |
| support, and should also define these other macros: |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR |
| CONFIG_VIDEO |
| CONFIG_CMD_BMP |
| CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR |
| CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO |
| |
| The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment |
| variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during |
| boot. See the documentation file doc/README.video for a |
| description of this variable. |
| |
| - LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD |
| |
| Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD |
| display); also select one of the supported displays |
| by defining one of these: |
| |
| CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD: |
| |
| HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320. |
| |
| CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33: |
| |
| NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20 |
| |
| NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480. |
| Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54 |
| |
| NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480. |
| Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_SHARP_16x9 |
| |
| Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan. |
| It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is. |
| |
| CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341 |
| |
| Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480. |
| Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_HLD1045 |
| |
| HLD1045 display, 640x480. |
| Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_OPTREX_BW |
| |
| Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5 |
| or |
| Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T |
| or |
| Hitachi SP14Q002 |
| |
| 320x240. Black & white. |
| |
| Normally display is black on white background; define |
| CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted. |
| |
| CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT |
| |
| Normally the LCD is page-aligned (typically 4KB). If this is |
| defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead. |
| For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE |
| here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on |
| a per-section basis. |
| |
| CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES |
| |
| When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of |
| lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes |
| the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling |
| is slow. |
| |
| CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION |
| |
| Sometimes, for example if the display is mounted in portrait |
| mode or even if it's mounted landscape but rotated by 180degree, |
| we need to rotate our content of the display relative to the |
| framebuffer, so that user can read the messages which are |
| printed out. |
| Once CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is defined, the lcd_console will be |
| initialized with a given rotation from "vl_rot" out of |
| "vidinfo_t" which is provided by the board specific code. |
| The value for vl_rot is coded as following (matching to |
| fbcon=rotate:<n> linux-kernel commandline): |
| 0 = no rotation respectively 0 degree |
| 1 = 90 degree rotation |
| 2 = 180 degree rotation |
| 3 = 270 degree rotation |
| |
| If CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is not defined, the console will be |
| initialized with 0degree rotation. |
| |
| CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8 |
| |
| Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD. |
| |
| CONFIG_I2C_EDID |
| |
| Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID |
| information over I2C from an attached LCD display. |
| |
| - Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN |
| |
| If this option is set, the environment is checked for |
| a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display |
| of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD |
| is suppressed and the BMP image at the address |
| specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The |
| console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This |
| allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is |
| loaded very quickly after power-on. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD |
| |
| If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment |
| variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address |
| (see doc/README.displaying-bmps). |
| This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment |
| restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data |
| abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned |
| accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them) |
| there is no need to set this option. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN |
| |
| If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned |
| on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the |
| position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as |
| number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it |
| is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also |
| specify 'm' for centering the image. |
| |
| Example: |
| setenv splashpos m,m |
| => image at center of screen |
| |
| setenv splashpos 30,20 |
| => image at x = 30 and y = 20 |
| |
| setenv splashpos -10,m |
| => vertically centered image |
| at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 |
| |
| - Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP |
| |
| If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP |
| images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the |
| splashscreen support or the bmp command. |
| |
| - Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8 |
| |
| If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images |
| can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the |
| bmp command. |
| |
| - Do compressing for memory range: |
| CONFIG_CMD_ZIP |
| |
| If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method |
| to compress the specified memory at its best effort. |
| |
| - Compression support: |
| CONFIG_GZIP |
| |
| Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images. |
| |
| CONFIG_BZIP2 |
| |
| If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed |
| images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip |
| compressed images are supported. |
| |
| NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so |
| the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should |
| be at least 4MB. |
| |
| CONFIG_LZMA |
| |
| If this option is set, support for lzma compressed |
| images is included. |
| |
| Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it |
| requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the |
| formula: |
| |
| (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) |
| |
| Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits |
| and Literal pos bits. |
| |
| This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, |
| for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a |
| total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is |
| a very small buffer. |
| |
| Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and |
| then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring |
| the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value). |
| |
| CONFIG_LZO |
| |
| If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images |
| is included. |
| |
| - MII/PHY support: |
| CONFIG_PHY_ADDR |
| |
| The address of PHY on MII bus. |
| |
| CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx) |
| |
| The clock frequency of the MII bus |
| |
| CONFIG_PHY_GIGE |
| |
| If this option is set, support for speed/duplex |
| detection of gigabit PHY is included. |
| |
| CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY |
| |
| Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after |
| reset before any MII register access is possible. |
| For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay |
| required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A) |
| |
| CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx) |
| |
| Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after |
| command issued before MII status register can be read |
| |
| - IP address: |
| CONFIG_IPADDR |
| |
| Define a default value for the IP address to use for |
| the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not |
| determined through e.g. bootp. |
| (Environment variable "ipaddr") |
| |
| - Server IP address: |
| CONFIG_SERVERIP |
| |
| Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP |
| server to contact when using the "tftboot" command. |
| (Environment variable "serverip") |
| |
| CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR |
| |
| Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr' |
| for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option) |
| |
| - Gateway IP address: |
| CONFIG_GATEWAYIP |
| |
| Defines a default value for the IP address of the |
| default router where packets to other networks are |
| sent to. |
| (Environment variable "gatewayip") |
| |
| - Subnet mask: |
| CONFIG_NETMASK |
| |
| Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or |
| routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP |
| address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be |
| forwarded through a router. |
| (Environment variable "netmask") |
| |
| - Multicast TFTP Mode: |
| CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP |
| |
| Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per |
| rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets |
| tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet |
| driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a |
| multicast group. |
| |
| - BOOTP Recovery Mode: |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY |
| |
| If you have many targets in a network that try to |
| boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all |
| systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same |
| moment (which would happen for instance at recovery |
| from a power failure, when all systems will try to |
| boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be |
| inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The |
| following delays are inserted then: |
| |
| 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec |
| 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec |
| 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec |
| 4th and following |
| BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE |
| |
| BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The |
| server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and |
| U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of |
| an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses |
| aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP |
| ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to |
| respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it |
| takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that |
| time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order |
| to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these |
| retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of |
| IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this |
| cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding |
| requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers |
| from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency. |
| |
| - DHCP Advanced Options: |
| You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols: |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip |
| environment variable, not the BOOTP server. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found |
| after the configured retry count, the call will fail |
| instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over |
| to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server |
| is not available. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS |
| serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more |
| than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. |
| If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS |
| serverip will be stored in the additional environment |
| variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always |
| stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS |
| is defined. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable |
| to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they |
| need the hostname of the DHCP requester. |
| If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content |
| of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as |
| option 12 to the DHCP server. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY |
| |
| A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between |
| receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request". |
| This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't |
| respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an |
| AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed |
| to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003 |
| DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at |
| least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope |
| that one of the retries will be successful but note that |
| the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than |
| this delay. |
| |
| - Link-local IP address negotiation: |
| Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network |
| for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. |
| This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed |
| to exist in all environments that the device must operate. |
| |
| See doc/README.link-local for more information. |
| |
| - CDP Options: |
| CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID |
| |
| The device id used in CDP trigger frames. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX |
| |
| A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address |
| of the device. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID |
| |
| A printf format string which contains the ascii name of |
| the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets |
| eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES |
| |
| A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities; |
| 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_VERSION |
| |
| An ascii string containing the version of the software. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM |
| |
| An ascii string containing the name of the platform. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER |
| |
| A 32bit integer sent on the trigger. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION |
| |
| A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the |
| device in .1 of milliwatts. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE |
| |
| A byte containing the id of the VLAN. |
| |
| - Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED |
| |
| Several configurations allow to display the current |
| status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink |
| fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as |
| soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and |
| start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running |
| (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux |
| kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this |
| feature in U-Boot. |
| |
| Additional options: |
| |
| CONFIG_GPIO_LED |
| The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin. |
| In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a |
| status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED |
| to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary. |
| |
| CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE |
| Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which |
| case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and |
| GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state. |
| In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined |
| with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity. |
| |
| - CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER |
| |
| Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support |
| on those systems that support this (optional) |
| feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. |
| |
| - I2C Support: CONFIG_SYS_I2C |
| |
| This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use |
| i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set |
| CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c |
| based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See |
| common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line |
| interface. |

| |
| additional defines: |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES |
| Hold the number of i2c buses you want to use. If you |
| don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this |
| is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can |
| omit this define. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS |
| define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware. |
| if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can |
| omit this define. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS |
| define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected |
| on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this |
| define. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES |
| hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example |
| a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and |
| CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9: |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES {{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ |
| {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \ |
| {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \ |
| {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \ |
| {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \ |
| {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \ |
| {1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \ |
| {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \ |
| {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \ |
| } |
| |
| which defines |
| bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux |
| bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1 |
| bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2 |
| bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3 |
| bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4 |
| bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5 |
| bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux |
| bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1 |
| bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2 |
| |
| If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define. |
| |
| - Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C |
| |
| NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which |
| provides the following compelling advantages: |
| |
| - more than one i2c adapter is usable |
| - approved multibus support |
| - better i2c mux support |
| |
| ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. ** |
| |
| These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining |
| CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver |
| for the selected CPU. |
| |
| This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot |
| command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in |
| CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime |
| clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the |
| command line interface. |
| |
| CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. |
| |
| There are several other quantities that must also be |
| defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C. |
| |
| In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED |
| to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus |
| to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie |
| the CPU's i2c node address). |
| |
| Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx |
| (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node |
| and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See, |
| eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX |
| |
| When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer |
| chips might think that the current transfer is still |
| in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start |
| commands until the slave device responds. |
| |
| That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. |
| |
| If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT) |
| then the following macros need to be defined (examples are |
| from include/configs/lwmon.h): |
| |
| I2C_INIT |
| |
| (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C |
| controller or configure ports. |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL) |
| |
| I2C_PORT |
| |
| (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code |
| assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values |
| are 0..3 for ports A..D. |
| |
| I2C_ACTIVE |
| |
| The code necessary to make the I2C data line active |
| (driven). If the data line is open collector, this |
| define can be null. |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA) |
| |
| I2C_TRISTATE |
| |
| The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated |
| (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this |
| define can be null. |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA) |
| |
| I2C_READ |
| |
| Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high, |
| false if it is low. |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0) |
| |
| I2C_SDA(bit) |
| |
| If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it |
| is false, it clears it (low). |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \ |
| if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \ |
| else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA |
| |
| I2C_SCL(bit) |
| |
| If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it |
| is false, it clears it (low). |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \ |
| if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \ |
| else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL |
| |
| I2C_DELAY |
| |
| This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this |
| controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus |
| is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something |
| like: |
| |
| #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2) |
| |
| CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA |
| |
| If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h), |
| then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be |
| used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will |
| have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate. |
| |
| You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to |
| the generic GPIO functions. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD |
| |
| When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer |
| chips might think that the current transfer is still |
| in progress. On some boards it is possible to access |
| the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the |
| processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin |
| connected to the bus. If this option is defined a |
| custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c |
| is run early in the boot sequence. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT |
| |
| An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is |
| defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in |
| boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() |
| is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus |
| using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c |
| controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of |
| i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus |
| controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). |
| |
| CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) |
| |
| This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags |
| in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment |
| variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast) |
| |
| CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
| |
| This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which |
| must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is |
| active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command. |
| Note that bus numbering is zero-based. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES |
| |
| This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped |
| when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
| is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify |
| a 1D array of device addresses |
| |
| e.g. |
| #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68} |
| |
| will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus |
| |
| #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}} |
| |
| will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1 |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM |
| |
| If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD. |
| If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM |
| |
| If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC. |
| If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM |
| |
| If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT. |
| If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR: |
| |
| If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device. |
| If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for |
| specified DTT device. |
| |
| CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START |
| |
| defining this will force the i2c_read() function in |
| the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start |
| between writing the address pointer and reading the |
| data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour |
| of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C |
| devices can use either method, but some require one or |
| the other. |
| |
| - SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI |
| |
| Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with |
| SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and |
| D/As on the SACSng board) |
| |
| CONFIG_SH_SPI |
| |
| Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently |
| only SH7757 is supported. |
| |
| CONFIG_SOFT_SPI |
| |
| Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than |
| using hardware support. This is a general purpose |
| driver that only requires three general I/O port pins |
| (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is |
| defined, the board configuration must define several |
| SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For |
| an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h. |
| |
| CONFIG_HARD_SPI |
| |
| Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads |
| and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration |
| must define a list of chip-select function pointers. |
| Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an |
| example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h. |
| |
| CONFIG_MXC_SPI |
| |
| Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC |
| SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT |
| Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed. |
| default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100) /* 10 ms */ |
| |
| - FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA |
| |
| Enables FPGA subsystem. |
| |
| CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor> |
| |
| Enables support for specific chip vendors. |
| (ALTERA, XILINX) |
| |
| CONFIG_FPGA_<family> |
| |
| Enables support for FPGA family. |
| (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX) |
| |
| CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT |
| |
| Specify the number of FPGA devices to support. |
| |
| CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADMK |
| |
| Enable support for fpga loadmk command |
| |
| CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADP |
| |
| Enable support for fpga loadp command - load partial bitstream |
| |
| CONFIG_CMD_FPGA_LOADBP |
| |
| Enable support for fpga loadbp command - load partial bitstream |
| (Xilinx only) |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK |
| |
| Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY |
| |
| Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy |
| status by the configuration function. This option |
| will require a board or device specific function to |
| be written. |
| |
| CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY |
| |
| If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA |
| configuration driver. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC |
| Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR |
| |
| Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile |
| loading. For example, abort during Virtex II |
| configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which |
| indicated a CRC error). |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT |
| |
| Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to de-assert |
| after PROB_B has been de-asserted during a Virtex II |
| FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500 |
| ms. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY |
| |
| Maximum time to wait for BUSY to de-assert during |
| Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG |
| |
| Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is |
| 200 ms. |
| |
| - Configuration Management: |
| CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET |
| |
| Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary |
| with a special header) as build targets. By defining |
| CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this |
| special image will be automatically built upon calling |
| make / buildman. |
| |
| CONFIG_IDENT_STRING |
| |
| If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot |
| version information (U_BOOT_VERSION) |
| |
| - Vendor Parameter Protection: |
| |
| U-Boot considers the values of the environment |
| variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and |
| "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that |
| are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and |
| protects these variables from casual modification by |
| the user. Once set, these variables are read-only, |
| and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can |
| change this behaviour: |
| |
| If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config |
| file, the write protection for vendor parameters is |
| completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete |
| these parameters. |
| |
| Alternatively, if you define _both_ an ethaddr in the |
| default env _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default |
| Ethernet address is installed in the environment, |
| which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The |
| serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains |
| read-only.] |
| |
| The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way |
| for any variable by configuring the type of access |
| to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable |
| or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC. |
| |
| - Protected RAM: |
| CONFIG_PRAM |
| |
| Define this variable to enable the reservation of |
| "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten |
| by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of |
| kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite |
| this default value by defining an environment |
| variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to |
| reserve. Note that the board info structure will |
| still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is |
| reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will |
| automatically be defined to hold the amount of |
| remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot |
| argument to Linux, for instance like that: |
| |
| setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem} |
| saveenv |
| |
| This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory, |
| either, which results in a memory region that will |
| not be affected by reboots. |
| |
| *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic |
| detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that |
| this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the |
| following board configurations are known to be |
| "pRAM-clean": |
| |
| IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL, |
| HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, |
| FLAGADM, TQM8260 |
| |
| - Access to physical memory region (> 4GB) |
| Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not |
| normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures |
| support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit |
| machines using physical address extension or similar. |
| Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which |
| currently only supports clearing the memory. |
| |
| - Error Recovery: |
| CONFIG_PANIC_HANG |
| |
| Define this variable to stop the system in case of a |
| fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually. |
| This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded |
| system where you want the system to reboot |
| automatically as fast as possible, but it may be |
| useful during development since you can try to debug |
| the conditions that lead to the situation. |
| |
| CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT |
| |
| This variable defines the number of retries for |
| network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP |
| before giving up the operation. If not defined, a |
| default value of 5 is used. |
| |
| CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT |
| |
| Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds. |
| |
| CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT |
| |
| Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol. |
| If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command, |
| try longer timeout such as |
| #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL |
| |
| - Command Interpreter: |
| CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE |
| |
| Enable auto completion of commands using TAB. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 |
| |
| This defines the secondary prompt string, which is |
| printed when the command interpreter needs more input |
| to complete a command. Usually "> ". |
| |
| Note: |
| |
| In the current implementation, the local variables |
| space and global environment variables space are |
| separated. Local variables are those you define by |
| simply typing `name=value'. To access a local |
| variable later on, you have write `$name' or |
| `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable |
| directly type `$name' at the command prompt. |
| |
| Global environment variables are those you use |
| setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored |
| in such a variable, you need to use the run command, |
| and you must not use the '$' sign to access them. |
| |
| To store commands and special characters in a |
| variable, please use double quotation marks |
| surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead |
| of the backslashes before semicolons and special |
| symbols. |
| |
| - Command Line Editing and History: |
| CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING |
| |
| Enable editing and History functions for interactive |
| command line input operations |
| |
| - Command Line PS1/PS2 support: |
| CONFIG_CMDLINE_PS_SUPPORT |
| |
| Enable support for changing the command prompt string |
| at run-time. Only static string is supported so far. |
| The string is obtained from environment variables PS1 |
| and PS2. |
| |
| - Default Environment: |
| CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS |
| |
| Define this to contain any number of null terminated |
| strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of |
| the default environment compiled into the boot image. |
| |
| For example, place something like this in your |
| board's config file: |
| |
| #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \ |
| "myvar1=value1\0" \ |
| "myvar2=value2\0" |
| |
| Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the |
| internal format how the environment is stored by the |
| U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported |
| interface! Although it is unlikely that this format |
| will change soon, there is no guarantee either. |
| You better know what you are doing here. |
| |
| Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is |
| discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset |
| the environment like the "source" command or the |
| boot command first. |
| |
| CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG |
| |
| Define this in order to add variables describing the |
| U-Boot build configuration to the default environment. |
| These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc. |
| |
| Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined: |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CPU |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD |
| - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SOC |
| |
| CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG |
| |
| Define this in order to add variables describing certain |
| run-time determined information about the hardware to the |
| environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev. |
| |
| CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT |
| |
| Normally the environment is loaded when the board is |
| initialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits |
| that so that the environment is not available until |
| explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL |
| this is instead controlled by the value of |
| /config/load-environment. |
| |
| - Parallel Flash support: |
| CONFIG_SYS_NO_FLASH |
| |
| Traditionally U-Boot was run on systems with parallel NOR |
| flash. This option is used to disable support for parallel NOR |
| flash. This option should be defined if the board does not have |
| parallel flash. |
| |
| If this option is not defined one of the generic flash drivers |
| (e.g. CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER or CONFIG_ST_SMI) must be |
| selected or the board must provide an implementation of the |
| flash API (see include/flash.h). |
| |
| - DataFlash Support: |
| CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH |
| |
| Defining this option enables DataFlash features and |
| allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard |
| commands cp, md... |
| |
| - Serial Flash support |
| CONFIG_CMD_SF |
| |
| Defining this option enables SPI flash commands |
| 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'. |
| |
| Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial |
| flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update |
| commands. |
| |
| The following defaults may be provided by the platform |
| to handle the common case when only a single serial |
| flash is present on the system. |
| |
| CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier |
| CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select |
| CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h) |
| CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz |
| |
| CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST |
| |
| Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash |
| test ('sf test'). |
| |
| CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH Dual flash memories |
| |
| Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash |
| memories can be connected with a given cs line. |
| Currently Xilinx Zynq qspi supports these type of connections. |
| |
| - SystemACE Support: |
| CONFIG_SYSTEMACE |
| |
| Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE |
| chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address |
| of the chip must also be defined in the |
| CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example: |
| |
| #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000 |
| |
| When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type |
| becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls. |
| |
| - TFTP Fixed UDP Port: |
| CONFIG_TFTP_PORT |
| |
| If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp |
| is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value. |
| If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port |
| number generator is used. |
| |
| Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply |
| the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't |
| defined, the normal port 69 is used. |
| |
| The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to |
| blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured |
| target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of |
| "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing |
| the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally. |
| A better solution is to properly configure the firewall, |
| but sometimes that is not allowed. |
| |
| - Hashing support: |
| CONFIG_CMD_HASH |
| |
| This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce |
| hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256). |
| |
| CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY |
| |
| Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code |
| size a little. |
| |
| CONFIG_SHA1 - This option enables support of hashing using SHA1 |
| algorithm. The hash is calculated in software. |
| CONFIG_SHA256 - This option enables support of hashing using |
| SHA256 algorithm. The hash is calculated in software. |
| CONFIG_SHA_HW_ACCEL - This option enables hardware acceleration |
| for SHA1/SHA256 hashing. |
| This affects the 'hash' command and also the |
| hash_lookup_algo() function. |
| CONFIG_SHA_PROG_HW_ACCEL - This option enables |
| hardware-acceleration for SHA1/SHA256 progressive hashing. |
| Data can be streamed in a block at a time and the hashing |
| is performed in hardware. |
| |
| Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps |
| be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'. |
| |
| - Freescale i.MX specific commands: |
| CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT |
| This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an |
| HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific. |
| |
| CONFIG_CMD_BMODE |
| This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing |
| a boot from specific media. |
| |
| This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to |
| activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating |
| on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal |
| will set it back to normal. This command currently |
| supports i.MX53 and i.MX6. |
| |
| - bootcount support: |
| CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT |
| |
| This enables the bootcounter support, see: |
| http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit |
| |
| CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE |
| enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards. |
| CONFIG_BLACKFIN |
| enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards. |
| CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX |
| enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards. |
| CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM |
| enable support for the bootcounter in RAM |
| CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C |
| enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device. |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address |
| CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for |
| the bootcounter. |
| CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len |
| |
| - Show boot progress: |
| CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS |
| |
| Defining this option allows to add some board- |
| specific code (calling a user-provided function |
| "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show |
| the system's boot progress on some display (for |
| example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment, |
| the following checkpoints are implemented: |
| |
| |
| Legacy uImage format: |
| |
| Arg Where When |
| 1 common/cmd_bootm.c before attempting to boot an image |
| -1 common/cmd_bootm.c Image header has bad magic number |

| - legacy image format: |
| CONFIG_IMAGE_FORMAT_LEGACY |
| enables the legacy image format support in U-Boot. |
| |
| Default: |
| enabled if CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not defined. |
| |
| CONFIG_DISABLE_IMAGE_LEGACY |
| disable the legacy image format |
| |
| This define is introduced, as the legacy image format is |
| enabled per default for backward compatibility. |
| |
| - FIT image support: |
| CONFIG_FIT_DISABLE_SHA256 |
| Supporting SHA256 hashes has quite an impact on binary size. |
| For constrained systems sha256 hash support can be disabled |
| with this option. |
| |
| TODO(sjg@chromium.org): Adjust this option to be positive, |
| and move it to Kconfig |
| |
| - Standalone program support: |
| CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR |
| |
| This option defines a board specific value for the |
| address where standalone program gets loaded, thus |
| overwriting the architecture dependent default |
| settings. |
| |
| - Frame Buffer Address: |
| CONFIG_FB_ADDR |
| |
| Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific |
| address for frame buffer. This is typically the case |
| when using a graphics controller has separate video |
| memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at |
| the given address instead of dynamically reserving it |
| in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs |
| the memory for the frame buffer depending on the |
| configured panel size. |
| |
| Please see board_init_f function. |
| |
| - Automatic software updates via TFTP server |
| CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP |
| CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX |
| CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX |
| |
| These options enable and control the auto-update feature; |
| for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update. |
| |
| - MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support) |
| CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE |
| |
| Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel. |
| Needed for mtdparts command support. |
| |
| CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS |
| |
| Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux |
| kernel. Needed for UBI support. |
| |
| - UBI support |
| CONFIG_CMD_UBI |
| |
| Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted |
| with the UBI flash translation layer |
| |
| Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE |
| |
| CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG |
| |
| Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing. This leaves |
| warnings and errors enabled. |
| |
| |
| CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD |
| This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest |
| erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks |
| of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing |
| wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase |
| counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter. |
| |
| The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and |
| other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more. |
| However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock |
| life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g., |
| to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2). |
| |
| default: 4096 |
| |
| CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT |
| This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI |
| expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the |
| underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR |
| flash), this value is ignored. |
| |
| NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM |
| (Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime. |
| The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks |
| then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)", |
| which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total |
| count of eraseblocks on the chip). |
| |
| To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to |
| reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks |
| handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire |
| NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means |
| that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad |
| eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same |
| size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a |
| partition. |
| |
| default: 20 |
| |
| CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP |
| Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device |
| in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it |
| only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device. |
| The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach |
| the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where |
| attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install |
| a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter |
| CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note |
| that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations |
| without fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap |
| fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps. |
| |
| CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT |
| Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images |
| without a fastmap. |
| default: 0 |
| |
| CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FM_DEBUG |
| Enable UBI fastmap debug |
| default: 0 |
| |
| - UBIFS support |
| CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS |
| |
| Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as |
| UBIFS. UBIFS is read-only in u-boot. |
| |
| Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO |
| |
| CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG |
| |
| Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing. This leaves |
| warnings and errors enabled. |
| |
| - SPL framework |
| CONFIG_SPL |
| Enable building of SPL globally. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT |
| LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT |
| Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included. |
| When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory |
| used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it. |
| CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE |
| must not be both defined at the same time. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE |
| Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and |
| linker lists sections), BSS excluded. |
| When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does |
| not exceed it. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE |
| TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE |
| Address to relocate to. If unspecified, this is equal to |
| CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done). |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR |
| Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE |
| Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS. |
| When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used |
| by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it. |
| CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE |
| must not be both defined at the same time. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_STACK |
| Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE |
| When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has |
| loaded does not have a signature. |
| Defining this is useful when code which loads images |
| in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors |
| will be caught. |
| An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will |
| consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad, |
| and thus should be skipped silently. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_ABORT_ON_RAW_IMAGE |
| When defined, SPL will proceed to another boot method |
| if the image it has loaded does not have a signature. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK |
| Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after |
| relocation. If unspecified, this is equal to |
| CONFIG_SPL_STACK. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START |
| Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL. |
| When this option is set the full malloc is used in SPL and |
| it is set up by spl_init() and before that, the simple malloc() |
| can be used if CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F is defined. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE |
| The size of the malloc pool used in SPL. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK |
| Enable the SPL framework under common/. This framework |
| supports MMC, NAND and YMODEM loading of U-Boot and NAND |
| NAND loading of the Linux Kernel. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT |
| Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL. |
| See also: doc/README.falcon |

| Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument |
| parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode |
| (for falcon mode) |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION |
| Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being |
| used in fs mode |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_PAYLOAD_NAME |
| Filename to read to load U-Boot when reading from filesystem |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_KERNEL_NAME |
| Filename to read to load kernel uImage when reading |
| from filesystem (for Falcon mode) |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_ARGS_NAME |
| Filename to read to load kernel argument parameters |
| when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode) |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND |
| Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that |
| start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before |
| continuing (the hardware starts execution after just |
| loading the first page rather than the full 4K). |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE |
| Avoid SPL relocation |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE |
| Include nand_base.c in the SPL. Requires |
| CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS. |
| |

| CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE |
| Support for NAND boot using simple NAND drivers that |
| expose the cmd_ctrl() interface. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_UBI |
| Support for a lightweight UBI (fastmap) scanner and |
| loader |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY |

| if you need to save space. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_COMMON_INIT_DDR |
| Set for common ddr init with serial presence detect in |
| SPL binary. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT, |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE, |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS, |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE, |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES |
| Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses |
| to read U-Boot |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT |
| Add support NAND boot |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS |
| Location in NAND to read U-Boot from |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST |
| Location in memory to load U-Boot to |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE |
| Size of image to load |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START |
| Entry point in loaded image to jump to |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST |
| Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the |
| data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND |
| Support for an OMAP3-specific set of functions to return the |
| ID and MFR of the first attached NAND chip, if present. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE |
| Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO |
| Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending |
| the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as |
| CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. |
| CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL |
| payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPL_TARGET |
| Final target image containing SPL and payload. Some SPLs |
| use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for |
| example if more than one image needs to be produced. |
| |
| CONFIG_FIT_SPL_PRINT |
| Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of |
| code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this |
| option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the |
| bootm command when booting a FIT image. |
| |
| - TPL framework |
| CONFIG_TPL |
| Enable building of TPL globally. |
| |
| CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO |
| Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending |
| the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as |
| CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined. |
| CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL |
| payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE. |
| |
| - Interrupt support (PPC): |
| |
| There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt() |
| for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu() |
| for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu() |
| should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If |
| CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt |
| (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero. |
| timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU |
| specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led |
| / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from |
| general timer_interrupt(). |
| |
| |
| Board initialization settings: |
| ------------------------------ |
| |
| During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions |
| to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup |
| before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the |
| following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is |
| architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c |
| typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). |
| |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() |
| |
| Configuration Settings: |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit. |
| Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included; |
| undefine this when you're short of memory. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default |
| width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to |
| prompt for user input. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to |
| the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is |
| booted |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE: |
| List of legal baudrate settings for this board. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET |
| Suppress display of console information at boot. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV |
| If the board specific function |
| extern int overwrite_console (void); |
| returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the |
| serial port, else the settings in the environment are used. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE |
| Enable the call to overwrite_console(). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE |
| Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END: |
| Begin and End addresses of the area used by the |
| simple memory test. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST: |
| Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH: |
| Scratch address used by the alternate memory test |
| You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE |
| Only implemented for ARMv8 for now. |
| If defined, the size of CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE memory |
| is substracted from total RAM and won't be reported to OS. |
| This memory can be used as secure memory. A variable |
| gd->arch.secure_ram is used to track the location. In systems |
| the RAM base is not zero, or RAM is divided into banks, |
| this variable needs to be recalcuated to get the address. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE: |
| If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, |
| this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top |
| (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By |
| fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed |
| the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either. |
| This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux |
| board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that |
| recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup |
| will have to get fixed in Linux additionally. |
| |
| This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx |
| CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't |
| be touched. |
| |
| WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of |
| the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case, |
| then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a |
| non page size aligned address and this could cause major |
| problems. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE: |
| Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE: |
| Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE: |
| Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a |
| Cogent motherboard) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE: |
| Physical start address of Flash memory. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE: |
| Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by |
| make config files to be same as the text base address |
| (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as |
| CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN: |
| Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to |
| determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is |
| embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate |
| flash sector. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN: |
| Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN |
| Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If |
| this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation |
| will become available before relocation. The address is just |
| below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make |
| space. |
| |
| This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses |
| within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc() |
| is not available. free() is supported but does nothing. |
| The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when |
| U-Boot relocates itself. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE |
| Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those |
| boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is |
| enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY: |
| Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be |
| typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped |
| uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would |
| otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For |
| some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the |
| cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed |
| are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding |
| cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e. |
| if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the |
| size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of |
| one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has |
| written to another region in the same cache-line. This can |
| happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for |
| buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g. |
| 16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes). |
| |
| Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN: |
| Normally compressed uImages are limited to an |
| uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough, |
| you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file |
| to adjust this setting to your needs. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ: |
| Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of |
| the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by |
| the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if |
| used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low" |
| environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case |
| all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low" |
| and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment |
| variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of |
| CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined, |
| then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH: |
| Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the |
| initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand |
| is enabled. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE: |
| Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between |
| "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD: |
| Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in |
| space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS: |
| Max number of Flash memory banks |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT: |
| Max number of sectors on a Flash chip |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT: |
| Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT: |
| Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT |
| Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT |
| Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION |
| If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used |
| instead of U-Boot software protection. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP: |
| |
| Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory; |
| without this option such a download has to be |
| performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2) |
| copy from RAM to flash. |
| |
| The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since |
| you can check if the download worked before you erase |
| the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is |
| too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the |
| downloaded image) this option may be very useful. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI: |
| Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the |
| common flash structure for storing flash geometry. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER |
| This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver |
| in the drivers directory |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD |
| This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver |
| in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash |
| to the MTD layer. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE |
| Use buffered writes to flash. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N |
| s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered |
| write commands. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST |
| If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't |
| print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This |
| is useful, if some of the configured banks are only |
| optionally available. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS |
| If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown |
| digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80 |
| column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY |
| If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared |
| against the source after the write operation. An error message |
| will be printed when the contents are not identical. |
| Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases, |
| since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier |
| while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable |
| this option if you really know what you are doing. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER: |
| Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some |
| Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value |
| to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all |
| buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface |
| on high Ethernet traffic. |
| Defaults to 4 if not defined. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES |
| |
| Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used |
| internally to store the environment settings. The default |
| setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most |
| cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see |
| lib/hashtable.c for details. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT |
| - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC |
| Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when |
| calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal, |
| hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined, |
| the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address. |
| |
| The format of the list is: |
| type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m] |
| access_attribute = [a|r|o|c] |
| attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute] |
| entry = variable_name[:attributes] |
| list = entry[,list] |
| |
| The type attributes are: |
| s - String (default) |
| d - Decimal |
| x - Hexadecimal |
| b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF]) |
| i - IP address |
| m - MAC address |
| |
| The access attributes are: |
| a - Any (default) |
| r - Read-only |
| o - Write-once |
| c - Change-default |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT |
| Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags" |
| environment variable in the default or embedded environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC |
| Define this to a list (string) to define validation that |
| should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags" |
| environment variable. To override a setting in the static |
| list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the |
| ".flags" variable. |
| |
| If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a |
| regular expression. This allows multiple variables to define the same |
| flags without explicitly listing them for each variable. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE |
| If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable |
| access flags. |
| |
| - CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only) |
| This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should |
| be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how |
| the value can be calculated on a given board. |
| |
| - CONFIG_USE_STDINT |
| If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this |
| option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when |
| building U-Boot to enable this. |
| |
| The following definitions that deal with the placement and management |
| of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the |
| following configurations: |
| |
| - CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC: |
| |
| Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils |
| may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH: |
| |
| Define this if the environment is in flash memory. |
| |
| a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is |
| "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This |
| happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot |
| sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller |
| sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a |
| layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In |
| such a case you would place the environment in one of the |
| 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With |
| "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the |
| environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap |
| between U-Boot and the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| |
| Offset of environment data (variable area) to the |
| beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot |
| type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset |
| for this sector is given here. |
| |
| CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
| |
| This is just another way to specify the start address of |
| the flash sector containing the environment (instead of |
| CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET). |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: |
| |
| Size of the sector containing the environment. |
| |
| |
| b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. |
| In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for |
| the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH |
| and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part |
| of this flash sector for the environment. This saves |
| memory for the RAM copy of the environment. |
| |
| It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this |
| when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, |
| since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used |
| for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is |
| STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view: |
| updating the environment in flash makes it always |
| necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes |
| wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in |
| RAM, your target system will be dead. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND |
| CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND |
| |
| These settings describe a second storage area used to hold |
| a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is |
| a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during |
| a "saveenv" operation. |
| |
| BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the |
| source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds* |
| accordingly! |
| |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM: |
| |
| Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device |
| (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the |
| environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you |
| want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory |
| can just be read and written to, without any special |
| provision. |
| |
| BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early |
| in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the |
| console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or |
| U-Boot will hang. |
| |
| Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the |
| environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to |
| keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv" |
| to save the current settings. |
| |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM: |
| |
| Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access |
| device and a driver for it. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines specify the offset and size of the |
| environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR: |
| If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device. |
| The default address is zero. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_BUS: |
| If defined, specified the i2c bus of the EEPROM device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS: |
| If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a |
| single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example |
| would require six bits. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS: |
| If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between |
| page writes. The default is zero milliseconds. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN: |
| The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note |
| that this is NOT the chip address length! |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW: |
| EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones |
| like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of |
| address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit |
| slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256 |
| byte chips. |
| |
| Note that we consider the length of the address field to |
| still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden |
| in the chip address. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE: |
| The size in bytes of the EEPROM device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C |
| define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your |
| EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus. |
| |
| - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS |
| if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over |
| I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this |
| EEPROM. For example: |
| |
| #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS 1 |
| |
| EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over |
| a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH: |
| |
| Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you |
| want to use for the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These three #defines specify the offset and size of the |
| environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed |
| at the specified address. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH: |
| |
| Define this if you have a SPI Flash memory device which you |
| want to use for the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines specify the offset and size of the |
| environment area within the SPI Flash. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be |
| aligned to an erase sector boundary. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: |
| |
| Define the SPI flash's sector size. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): |
| |
| This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE |
| size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so |
| that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure |
| during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be |
| aligned to an erase sector boundary. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_BUS (optional): |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_CS (optional): |
| |
| Define the SPI bus and chip select. If not defined they will be 0. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MAX_HZ (optional): |
| |
| Define the SPI max work clock. If not defined then use 1MHz. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SPI_MODE (optional): |
| |
| Define the SPI work mode. If not defined then use SPI_MODE_3. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE: |
| |
| Define this if you have a remote memory space which you |
| want to use for the local device's environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines specify the address and size of the |
| environment area within the remote memory space. The |
| local device can get the environment from remote memory |
| space by SRIO or PCIE links. |
| |
| BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use |
| "saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the |
| environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link, |
| but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND: |
| |
| Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use |
| for the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment |
| area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be |
| aligned to an erase block boundary. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): |
| |
| This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE |
| size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so |
| that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure |
| during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be |
| aligned to an erase block boundary. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional): |
| |
| Specifies the length of the region in which the environment |
| can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's |
| block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than |
| are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within |
| the range to be avoided. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional): |
| |
| Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the |
| environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The |
| "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset. |
| Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when |
| using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB. |
| |
| - CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST |
| |
| Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the |
| environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to |
| CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI: |
| |
| Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the |
| environment. This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment |
| accesses, which is important on NAND. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART: |
| |
| Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME: |
| |
| Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the |
| environment in. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND: |
| |
| Define this to the name of another volume to store a second copy of |
| the environment in. This will enable redundant environments in UBI. |
| It is assumed that both volumes are in the same MTD partition. |
| |
| - CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG |
| - CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG |
| |
| You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system |
| when storing the env in UBI. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT: |
| Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment. |
| |
| - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE: |
| |
| Define this to a string that is the name of the block device. |
| |
| - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART: |
| |
| Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can |
| be as following: |
| |
| "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1) |
| - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no |
| partition table. |
| - "D:0": device D. |
| - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition |
| table, or the whole device D if has no partition |
| table. |
| - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set. |
| If none, first valid partition in device D. If no |
| partition table then means device D. |
| |
| - FAT_ENV_FILE: |
| |
| It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the |
| environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FAT_WRITE: |
| This should be defined. Otherwise it cannot save the environment file. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC: |
| |
| Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the |
| environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV: |
| |
| Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional): |
| |
| Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not |
| set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be |
| 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition). |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment |
| area within the specified MMC device. |
| |
| If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to |
| the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated |
| as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if |
| your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have |
| different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the |
| environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the |
| maximum possible space before it, to store other data. |
| |
| These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an |
| MMC sector boundary. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): |
| |
| Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to |
| hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a |
| valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due |
| to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation. |
| |
| This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the |
| same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET. |
| |
| This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to |
| an MMC sector boundary. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional): |
| |
| This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is |
| set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as |
| CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET |
| |
| Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The |
| area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment |
| is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte |
| scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization |
| calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems |
| to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the |
| start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer. |
| |
| Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor |
| has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been |
| created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f() |
| until then to read environment variables. |
| |
| The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor |
| is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working |
| with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is |
| necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the |
| "baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't |
| have any device yet where we could complain.] |
| |
| Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if |
| the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you |
| use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN: |
| Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED. |
| |
| Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR |
| also needs to be defined. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR: |
| MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state. |
| |
| - CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS: |
| Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init |
| and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at |
| drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving |
| space for already greatly restricted images, including but not |
| limited to NAND_SPL configurations. |
| |
| - CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO |
| Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on |
| when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called |
| to do this. |
| |
| - CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE |
| Similar to the previous option, but display this information |
| later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if |
| present. |
| |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT: |
| Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the |
| build system checks that the actual size does not |
| exceed it. |
| |
| Low Level (hardware related) configuration options: |
| --------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE: |
| Cache Line Size of the CPU. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR: |
| Default address of the IMMR after system reset. |
| |
| Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU, |
| and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of |
| the IMMR register after a reset. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT: |
| Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale |
| PowerPC SOCs. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR: |
| Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically |
| the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value, |
| for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS: |
| Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new |
| physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should |
| be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the |
| same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR |
| is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended |
| that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros: |
| |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH |
| * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH: |
| Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically |
| either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is |
| used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or |
| integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW: |
| Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is |
| used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or |
| integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE: |
| If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be |
| forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated. |
| |
| - Floppy Disk Support: |
| CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER |
| |
| the default drive number (default value 0) |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE |
| |
| defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers |
| (default value 1) |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET |
| |
| defines the offset of register from address. It |
| depends on which part of the data bus is connected to |
| the FDC chipset. (default value 0) |
| |
| If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and |
| CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their |
| default value. |
| |
| if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function |
| fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC |
| setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board |
| source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent |
| initializations. |
| |
| - CONFIG_IDE_AHB: |
| Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI |
| interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface. |
| When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to |
| IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional |
| registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller |
| is required. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory. |
| DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're |
| doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only] |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR: |
| |
| Start address of memory area that can be used for |
| initial data and stack; please note that this must be |
| writable memory that is working WITHOUT special |
| initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which |
| will become available only after programming the |
| memory controller and running certain initialization |
| sequences. |
| |
| U-Boot uses the following memory types: |
| - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU) |
| - MPC824X: data cache |
| - PPC4xx: data cache |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET: |
| |
| Offset of the initial data structure in the memory |
| area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually |
| CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial |
| data is located at the end of the available space |
| (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - |
| CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just |
| below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + |
| CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward. |
| |
| Note: |
| On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data |
| cache for initial memory) the address chosen for |
| CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must |
| point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between |
| the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space. |

| enable SPI microcode relocation patch (MPC8xx); |
| define relocation offset in DPRAM [SCC4] |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_USE_OSCCLK: |
| Use OSCM clock mode on MBX8xx board. Be careful, |
| wrong setting might damage your board. Read |
| doc/README.MBX before setting this variable! |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only) |
| Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post |

| CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_BUS, CPU_PCI_MEMIO_START, |
| CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR1_MASK_ATTRIB, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_LOCAL, |
| CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_IO_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_SIZE, |
| CONFIG_SYS_POCMR2_MASK_ATTRIB: (MPC826x only) |
| Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set. |
| |
| - CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE: |
| Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not |
| required. |
| |
| - CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY |
| Only scan through and get the devices on the buses. |
| Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or |
| something has already done it, and we don't need to do it |
| a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted |
| by coreboot or similar. |
| |
| - CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE: |
| Enable support for indirect PCI bridges. |
| |

| Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using |
| a 16 bit bus. |
| Not all NAND drivers use this symbol. |
| Example of drivers that use it: |
| - drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c |
| - drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG |
| Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined |
| a default value will be used. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM |
| Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common |
| with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs |
| |
| SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS |
| I2C address of the SPD EEPROM |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM |
| If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first |
| one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve |
| to something your driver can deal with. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING |

| be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12] |
| Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY |
| Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds |
| to the given FEC; i. e. |
| #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4 |
| means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1 |
| |
| When set to -1, means to probe for first available. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR |
| The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only). |
| (so program the FEC to ignore it). |
| |
| - CONFIG_RMII |
| Enable RMII mode for all FECs. |
| Note that this is a global option, we can't |
| have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode. |
| |
| - CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY |
| Add a verify option to the crc32 command. |
| The syntax is: |
| |
| => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32> |
| |
| Where address/count indicate a memory area |
| and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the |
| area should have. |
| |
| - CONFIG_LOOPW |
| Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if |
| the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). |
| |
| - CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC |
| Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic |
| "md/mw" commands. |
| Examples: |
| |
| => mdc.b 10 4 500 |
| This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms. |
| |
| => mwc.l 100 12345678 10 |
| This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms. |
| |
| This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated |
| globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT |
| [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain |
| low level initializations (like setting up the memory |
| controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not |
| relocate itself into RAM. |
| |
| Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only |
| exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some |
| other boot loader or by a debugger which performs |
| these initializations itself. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT_ONLY |
| [ARM926EJ-S only] This allows just the call to lowlevel_init() |
| to be skipped. The normal CP15 init (such as enabling the |
| instruction cache) is still performed. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SPL_BUILD |
| Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader |
| that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when |
| compiling a NAND SPL. |
| |
| - CONFIG_TPL_BUILD |
| Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader |
| that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot. |
| It is loaded by the SPL. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC |
| Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section |
| .resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the |
| previous 4k of the .text section. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM |
| Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses |
| effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard |
| U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated |
| to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since |
| it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all |
| addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses |
| to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem(). |
| |
| - CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY |
| CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET |
| If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will |
| be used if available. These functions may be faster under some |
| conditions but may increase the binary size. |
| |
| - CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR |
| If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not |
| needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK |
| Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz). |
| |
| NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SPL_AM33XX_ENABLE_RTC32K_OSC: |
| Enables the RTC32K OSC on AM33xx based plattforms |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE |
| Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver |
| driver that uses this: |
| drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c |
| |
| Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: |
| ----------------------------------- |
| |
| The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the |
| loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. |
| This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros |
| are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address |
| within that device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR |
| The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located. The |
| meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro |
| is also specified. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR |
| The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located. The |
| meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro |
| is also specified. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH |
| The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format |
| has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it |
| might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some |
| local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as |
| normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the |
| virtual address in NOR flash. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. |
| CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC |
| device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI |
| device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master) |
| memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which |
| can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound |
| window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in |
| master's memory space. |
| |
| Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support: |
| --------------------------------------------------------- |
| The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of |
| "firmware". |
| This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros |
| are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address |
| within that device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET |
| Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR |
| The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The |
| meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro |
| is also specified. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH |
| The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format |
| has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it |
| might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some |
| local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR |
| Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as |
| normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the |
| virtual address in NOR flash. |
| |
| Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support: |
| ------------------------------------------- |
| The Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support supports the loading of |
| "Debug Server firmware" and triggering SP boot-rom. |
| This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MC_RSV_MEM_ALIGN |
| Define alignment of reserved memory MC requires |
| |
| Reproducible builds |
| ------------------- |
| |
| In order to achieve reproducible builds, timestamps used in the U-Boot build |
| process have to be set to a fixed value. |
| |
| This is done using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable. |
| SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is to be set on the build host's shell, not as a configuration |
| option for U-Boot or an environment variable in U-Boot. |
| |
| SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH should be set to a number of seconds since the epoch, in UTC. |
| |
| Building the Software: |
| ====================== |
| |
| Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments |
| and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support |
| all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all |
| (potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we |
| recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK) |
| which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot. |
| |
| If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you |
| have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, |
| you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. |
| Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are |
| necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter: |
| |
| $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- |
| $ export CROSS_COMPILE |
| |
| Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in |
| the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain |
| (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW |
| toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: |
| |
| $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools |
| |
| Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can |
| be executed on computers running Windows. |
| |
| U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the |
| sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This |
| is done by typing: |
| |
| make NAME_defconfig |
| |
| where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu- |
| rations; see boards.cfg for supported names. |
| |
| Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if |
| additional information is available from the board vendor; for |
| instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard) |
| or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features" |
| when choosing the configuration, i. e. |
| |
| make TQM823L_defconfig |
| - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support |
| |
| make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig |
| - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD |
| |
| etc. |
| |
| |
| Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot |
| images ready for download to / installation on your system: |
| |
| - "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image |
| - "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format |
| - "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format |
| |
| By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved |
| in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change |
| this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory: |
| |
| 1. Add O= to the make command line invocations: |
| |
| make O=/tmp/build distclean |
| make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig |
| make O=/tmp/build all |
| |
| 2. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location: |
| |
| export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build |
| make distclean |
| make NAME_defconfig |
| make all |
| |
| Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment |
| variable. |
| |
| |
| Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so |
| for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of |
| native "make". |
| |
| |
| If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need |
| to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these |
| steps: |
| |
| 1. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any |
| files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least |
| the "Makefile" and a "<board>.c". |
| 2. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for |
| your board. |
| 3. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new |
| directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. |
| 4. Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name. |
| 5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file |
| to be installed on your target system. |
| 6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. |
| [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] |
| |
| |
| Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: |
| ============================================================== |
| |
| If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board |
| or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to |
| provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes |
| the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest |
| official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources. |
| |
| But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- |
| cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of |
| the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, |
| just run the buildman script (tools/buildman/buildman), which will |
| configure and build U-Boot for ALL supported system. Be warned, this |
| will take a while. Please see the buildman README, or run 'buildman -H' |
| for documentation. |

| |
| Environment Variables: |
| ====================== |
| |
| U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which |
| can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. |
| |
| Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using |
| "printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv" |
| without a value can be used to delete a variable from the |
| environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are |
| working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the |
| environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided. |
| |
| Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables. |
| |
| List of environment variables (most likely not complete): |
| |
| baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE |
| |
| bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY |
| |
| bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND |
| |
| bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image |
| |
| bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP |
| |
| bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm |
| command can be restricted. This variable is given as |
| a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed |
| for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size" |
| environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is |
| also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux |
| kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and |
| bootm_mapsize. |
| |
| bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel. |
| This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it |
| defines the size of the memory region starting at base |
| address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel |
| during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used |
| as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is |
| used otherwise. |
| |
| bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm |
| command can be restricted. This variable is given as |
| a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region |
| allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low" |
| environment variable. |
| |
| updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used |
| by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to |
| documentation in doc/README.update for more details. |
| |
| autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'), |
| "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the |
| configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to |
| load any image using TFTP |
| |
| autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp", |
| "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will |
| be automatically started (by internally calling |
| "bootm") |
| |
| If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the |
| "bootm" command will be copied to the load address |
| (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started. |
| This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary |
| data. |
| |
| fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the |
| flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot. |
| For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory |
| at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel |
| only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you |
| may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the |
| device tree blob be copied to the maximum address |
| of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can |
| access it during the boot procedure. |
| |
| If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then |
| the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this |
| to work it must reside in writable memory, have |
| sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to |
| add the information it needs into it, and the memory |
| must be accessible by the kernel. |
| |
| fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened |
| device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is |
| defined. |
| |
| i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) |
| if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast |
| mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in |
| initialization code. So, for changes to be effective |
| it must be saved and board must be reset. |
| |
| initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images: |
| If this variable is not set, initrd images will be |
| copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this |
| is usually what you want since it allows for |
| maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to |
| make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the |
| CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment |
| variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0". |
| Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper |
| address to use (U-Boot will still check that it |
| does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data). |
| |
| For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB |
| RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux, |
| you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of |
| the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make |
| sure that the initrd image is placed in the first |
| 12 MB as well - this can be done with |
| |
| setenv initrd_high 00c00000 |
| |
| If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an |
| indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal |
| for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash |
| memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the |
| ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the |
| boot time on your system, but requires that this |
| feature is supported by your Linux kernel. |
| |
| ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command |
| |
| loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp", |
| "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot" |
| |
| loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO |
| |
| serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command |
| |
| bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME |
| |
| bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR |
| |
| bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR |
| |
| ethprime - controls which interface is used first. |
| |
| ethact - controls which interface is currently active. |
| For example you can do the following |
| |
| => setenv ethact FEC |
| => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC |
| => setenv ethact SCC |
| => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC |
| |
| ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all |
| available network interfaces. |
| It just stays at the currently selected interface. |
| |
| netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will |
| either succeed or fail without retrying. |
| When set to "once" the network operation will |
| fail when all the available network interfaces |
| are tried once without success. |
| Useful on scripts which control the retry operation |
| themselves. |
| |
| npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode |
| |
| silent_linux - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by |
| changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be |
| made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If |
| unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console |
| is silent. |
| |
| tftpsrcp - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's |
| UDP source port. |
| |
| tftpdstp - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP |
| destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69. |
| |
| tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set, |
| we use the TFTP server's default block size |
| |
| tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli- |
| seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines |
| when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to |
| be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds. |
| Lowering this value may make downloads succeed |
| faster in networks with high packet loss rates or |
| with unreliable TFTP servers. |
| |
| tftptimeoutcountmax - maximum count of TFTP timeouts (no |
| unit, minimum value = 0). Defines how many timeouts |
| can happen during a single file transfer before that |
| transfer is aborted. The default is 10, and 0 means |
| 'no timeouts allowed'. Increasing this value may help |
| downloads succeed with high packet loss rates, or with |
| unreliable TFTP servers or client hardware. |
| |
| vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over |
| Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q |
| VLAN tagged frames. |
| |
| bootpretryperiod - Period during which BOOTP/DHCP sends retries. |
| Unsigned value, in milliseconds. If not set, the period will |
| be either the default (28000), or a value based on |
| CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT, if defined. This value has |
| precedence over the valu based on CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT. |
| |
| The following image location variables contain the location of images |
| used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is |
| not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment |
| variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP |
| server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be |
| loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR |
| flash or offset in NAND flash. |
| |
| *Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some |
| boards currently use other variables for these purposes, and some |
| boards use these variables for other purposes. |
| |
| Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location |
| ----- --------- ----------- -------------- |
| u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr |
| Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr |
| device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr |
| ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr |
| |
| The following environment variables may be used and automatically |
| updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"), |
| depending the information provided by your boot server: |
| |
| bootfile - see above |
| dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server |
| dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server |
| gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use |
| hostname - Target hostname |
| ipaddr - see above |
| netmask - Subnet Mask |
| rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server |
| serverip - see above |
| |
| |
| There are two special Environment Variables: |
| |
| serial# - contains hardware identification information such |
| as type string and/or serial number |
| ethaddr - Ethernet address |
| |
| These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of |
| the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables |
| once they have been set once. |
| |
| |
| Further special Environment Variables: |
| |
| ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed |
| with the "version" command. This variable is |
| readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE). |
| |
| |
| Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take |
| only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-). |
| |
| |
| Callback functions for environment variables: |
| --------------------------------------------- |
| |
| For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change |
| when their values are changed. This functionality allows functions to |
| be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or |
| deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side |
| effect to happen or for the change to be rejected. |
| |
| The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the |
| U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code. |
| |
| These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The |
| static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC |
| in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of |
| associations. The list must be in the following format: |
| |
| entry = variable_name[:callback_name] |
| list = entry[,list] |
| |
| If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted. |
| Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list. |
| |
| Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable |
| with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will |
| override any association in the static list. You can define |
| CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the |
| ".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment. |
| |
| If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a |
| regular expression. This allows multiple variables to be connected to |
| the same callback without explicitly listing them all out. |
| |
| |
| Command Line Parsing: |
| ===================== |
| |
| There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot: |
| the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell: |
| |
| Old, simple command line parser: |
| -------------------------------- |
| |
| - supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands) |
| - several commands on one line, separated by ';' |
| - variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax |
| - special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\', |
| for example: |
| setenv bootcmd bootm \${address} |
| - You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example: |
| setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off' |
| |
| Hush shell: |
| ----------- |
| |
| - similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like |
| if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done, |
| until...do...done, ... |
| - supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv |
| commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax |
| "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run" |
| command |
| |
| General rules: |
| -------------- |
| |
| (1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run" |
| command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and |
| one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be |
| executed anyway. |
| |
| (2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e. |
| calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing |
| command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining |
| variables are not executed. |
| |
| Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces: |
| ======================================= |
| |
| Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports |
| such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a |
| "working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows: |
| |
| Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding |
| MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0), |
| "eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ... |
| |
| If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance |
| in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon- |
| ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment |
| variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means: |
| |
| o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the |
| environment, the SROM's address is used. |
| |
| o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the |
| environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is |
| used. |
| |
| o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and |
| both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used. |
| |
| o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the |
| addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a |
| warning is printed. |
| |
| o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error |
| is raised. If CONFIG_NET_RANDOM_ETHADDR is defined, then in this case |
| a random, locally-assigned MAC is used. |
| |
| If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses |
| will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This |
| may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable. |
| The naming convention is as follows: |
| "ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc. |
| |
| Image Formats: |
| ============== |
| |
| U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) |
| images in two formats: |
| |
| New uImage format (FIT) |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar |
| to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple |
| components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by |
| SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory. |
| |
| |
| Old uImage format |
| ----------------- |
| |
| Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything, |
| preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for |
| details; basically, the header defines the following image properties: |
| |
| * Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, |
| 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks, |
| LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY; |
| Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS, |
| INTEGRITY). |
| * Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, |
| IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; |
| Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC). |
| * Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2) |
| * Load Address |
| * Entry Point |
| * Image Name |
| * Image Timestamp |
| |
| The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header |
| and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by |
| CRC32 checksums. |
| |
| |
| Linux Support: |
| ============== |
| |
| Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application |
| easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of |
| U-Boot. |
| |
| U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some |
| special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any |
| "initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image; |
| instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation |
| serves several purposes: |
| |
| - the same features can be used for other OS or standalone |
| applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the |
| Flash memory footprint) |
| |
| - it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because |
| lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot |
| |
| - the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd" |
| images; of course this also means that different kernel images can |
| be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't |
| have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just |
| change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the |
| software is easier now. |
| |
| |
| Linux HOWTO: |
| ============ |
| |
| Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems: |
| --------------------------------------- |
| |
| U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to |
| configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware |
| (no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to |
| Linux :-). |
| |
| But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot). |
| |
| Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance |
| include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board |
| Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h, |
| and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value |
| as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR. |
| |
| Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers. |
| If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there |
| is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See |
| doc/driver-model. |
| |
| |
| Configuring the Linux kernel: |
| ----------------------------- |
| |
| No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root |
| device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system. |
| |
| |
| Building a Linux Image: |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are |
| not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target |
| "uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by |
| U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target, |
| which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a |
| 100% compatible format. |
| |
| Example: |
| |
| make TQM850L_defconfig |
| make oldconfig |
| make dep |
| make uImage |
| |
| The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to |
| encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information, |
| CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing: |
| |
| * build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format): |
| |
| * convert the kernel into a raw binary image: |
| |
| ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \ |
| -R .note -R .comment \ |
| -S vmlinux linux.bin |
| |
| * compress the binary image: |
| |
| gzip -9 linux.bin |
| |
| * package compressed binary image for U-Boot: |
| |
| mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \ |
| -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \ |
| -d linux.bin.gz uImage |
| |
| |
| The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use |
| with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or |
| combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64 |
| byte header containing information about target architecture, |
| operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time |
| stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc. |
| |
| "mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and |
| print the header information, or to build new images. |
| |
| In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information |
| contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes |
| checksum verification: |
| |
| tools/mkimage -l image |
| -l ==> list image header information |
| |
| The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image |
| from a "data file" which is used as image payload: |
| |
| tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \ |
| -n name -d data_file image |
| -A ==> set architecture to 'arch' |
| -O ==> set operating system to 'os' |
| -T ==> set image type to 'type' |
| -C ==> set compression type 'comp' |
| -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex) |
| -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex) |
| -n ==> set image name to 'name' |
| -d ==> use image data from 'datafile' |
| |
| Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load |
| address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the |
| kernel version: |
| |
| - 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C, |
| - 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000. |
| |
| So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read: |
| |
| -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ |
| > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \ |
| > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \ |
| > examples/uImage.TQM850L |
| Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L |

| The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i" |
| option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d" |
| option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file" |
| from the image: |
| |
| tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file |
| -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file' |
| -T ==> set image type to 'type' |
| -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image' |
| |
| |
| Installing a Linux Image: |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface, |
| you must convert the image to S-Record format: |
| |
| objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec |
| |
| The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot |
| image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to |
| address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to |
| specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads' |
| command. |
| |
| Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the |
| TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank): |
| |
| => erase 40100000 401FFFFF |
| |
| .......... done |
| Erased 8 sectors |
| |
| => loads 40100000 |

| |
| |
| You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command; |
| this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data |
| corruption happened: |

| of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as |
| parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the |
| "printenv" and "setenv" commands: |
| |
| |
| => printenv bootargs |

| More About U-Boot Image Types: |
| ------------------------------ |
| |
| U-Boot supports the following image types: |
| |
| "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment |
| provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave |
| well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from |
| the Standalone Program. |
| "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which |
| will take over control completely. Usually these programs |
| will install their own set of exception handlers, device |
| drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot |
| expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU. |
| "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their |
| parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is |
| being started. |
| "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS |
| (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like |
| RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want |
| to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot |
| server provides just a single image file, but you want to get |
| for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image. |
| |
| "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each |
| image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network |
| byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0". |
| Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by |
| one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to |
| a multiple of 4 bytes). |
| |
| "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like |
| U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to |
| flash memory. |
| |
| "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by |
| U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially |
| useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush) |
| as command interpreter. |
| |
| Booting the Linux zImage: |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done |
| using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same |
| as the syntax of "bootm" command. |
| |
| Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply |
| kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the |
| address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following |
| format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>". |
| |
| |
| Standalone HOWTO: |
| ================= |
| |
| One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and |
| run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of |
| U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services. |
| |
| Two simple examples are included with the sources: |
| |
| "Hello World" Demo: |
| ------------------- |
| |
| 'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo |
| application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot. |
| It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it |
| like that: |
| |
| => loads |
| ## Ready for S-Record download ... |
| ~>examples/hello_world.srec |
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... |
| [file transfer complete] |
| [connected] |
| ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 |
| |
| => go 40004 Hello World! This is a test. |
| ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ... |
| Hello World |
| argc = 7 |
| argv[0] = "40004" |
| argv[1] = "Hello" |
| argv[2] = "World!" |
| argv[3] = "This" |
| argv[4] = "is" |
| argv[5] = "a" |
| argv[6] = "test." |
| argv[7] = "<NULL>" |
| Hit any key to exit ... |
| |
| ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0 |
| |
| Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt |
| handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'. |
| Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second. |
| The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.' |
| character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be |
| controlled by the following keys: |
| |
| ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers |
| b - enable interrupts and start timer |
| e - stop timer and disable interrupts |
| q - quit application |
| |

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

| |
| NetBSD Notes: |
| ============= |
| |
| Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host |
| (build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx). |
| |
| Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on |
| NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also |
| need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make). |
| Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files; |
| attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is |
| missing. This file has to be installed and patched manually: |
| |
| # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include |
| # mkdir powerpc |
| # ln -s powerpc machine |
| # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h |
| # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST |
| |
| Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native |
| and U-Boot include files. |
| |
| Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a |
| stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel |
| proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source |
| tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the |
| meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz |
| |
| |
| Implementation Internals: |
| ========================= |
| |
| The following is not intended to be a complete description of every |
| implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the |
| inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom |
| hardware. |
| |
| |
| Initial Stack, Global Data: |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot |
| starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to |
| system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet). |
| This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS |
| is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working |
| at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation |
| options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU |
| models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and |
| MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be |
| locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc. |
| |
| Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the |
| U-Boot mailing list: |
| |
| Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)? |
| From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com> |
| Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET) |
| ... |
| |
| Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it |
| is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not |
| require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness |
| is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of |
| necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's |
| beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you |
| can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and |
| operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals. |
| |
| OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It |
| is another option for the system designer to use as an |
| initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either |
| option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your |
| board designers haven't used it for something that would |
| cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not |
| used. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere |
| with your processor/board/system design. The default value |
| you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in |
| walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger |
| than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set |
| it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources |
| that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in |
| start.S has been around a while and should work as is when |
| you get the config right. |

| |
| It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C |
| code for the initialization procedures: |
| |
| * Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt |
| to write it. |
| |
| * Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized |
| as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali- |
| zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM). |
| |
| * Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like |
| that. |
| |
| Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use |
| normal global data to share information between the code. But it |
| turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly |
| simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all |
| functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_ |
| functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of |
| the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we |
| place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we |
| reserve for this purpose. |
| |
| When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the |
| relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by |
| GCC's implementation. |
| |
| For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use: |
| R1: stack pointer |
| R2: reserved for system use |
| R3-R4: parameter passing and return values |
| R5-R10: parameter passing |
| R13: small data area pointer |
| R30: GOT pointer |
| R31: frame pointer |
| |
| (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12 |
| is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when |
| going back and forth between asm and C) |
| |
| ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data |
| |
| Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the |
| address of the global data structure is known at compile time), |
| but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat |
| smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on |
| average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image, |
| 624 text + 127 data). |
| |
| On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here: |
| http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface |
| |
| ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data |
| |
| On ARM, the following registers are used: |
| |
| R0: function argument word/integer result |
| R1-R3: function argument word |
| R9: platform specific |
| R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled) |
| R11: argument (frame) pointer |
| R12: temporary workspace |
| R13: stack pointer |
| R14: link register |
| R15: program counter |

| ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data |
| |
| Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported. |
| |
| On Nios II, the ABI is documented here: |
| http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf |
| |
| ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data |
| |
| Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp |
| to access small data sections, so gp is free. |
| |
| On NDS32, the following registers are used: |
| |
| R0-R1: argument/return |
| R2-R5: argument |
| R15: temporary register for assembler |
| R16: trampoline register |
| R28: frame pointer (FP) |
| R29: global pointer (GP) |
| R30: link register (LP) |
| R31: stack pointer (SP) |
| PC: program counter (PC) |
| |
| ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data |
| |
| NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope, |
| or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much. |
| |
| Memory Management: |
| ------------------ |
| |
| U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the |
| MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection. |
| |
| The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory |
| controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each |
| memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several |
| physical memory banks. |
| |
| U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on |
| TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After |
| booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself |
| to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some |
| memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN |
| configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board |
| Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward). |
| |
| Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB |
| of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF). |
| |
| So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like |
| this: |
| |
| 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code |
| : |
| 0x0000 1FFF |
| 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use |
| : |
| : |
| |
| : |
| : |
| 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward) |
| 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data |
| 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena |
| : |
| 0x00FD FFFF |
| 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code |
| ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer |
| ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset) |
| 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM] |
| |
| |
| System Initialization: |
| ---------------------- |
| |
| In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point |
| (on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset |
| configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory. |
| To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address. |
| To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!) |
| initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs |
| which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked |
| part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, |
| the caches and the SIU. |
| |
| Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a |
| preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries |
| (multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash |
| on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is |
| programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a |
| simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM |
| banks. |
| |
| When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of |
| different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first |
| bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address |
| 0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create |
| contiguous memory starting from 0. |
| |
| Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area |
| and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board |
| Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM |
| pages, and the final stack is set up. |
| |
| Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment; |
| until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are |
| running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a |
| new address in RAM. |

| Coding Standards: |
| ----------------- |
| |
| All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel |
| coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script |
| "scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory. |
| |
| Source files originating from a different project (for example the |
| MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not |
| reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those |
| sources. |
| |
| Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in |
| Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//) |
| in your code. |
| |
| Please also stick to the following formatting rules: |
| - remove any trailing white space |
| - use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces |
| - make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds |
| - do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files |
| - do not add trailing empty lines to source files |
| |
| Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned |
| with a request to reformat the changes. |
| |
| |
| Submitting Patches: |
| ------------------- |
| |
| Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to |
| establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules |
| may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff. |
| |
| Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details. |
| |
| Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>; |
| see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot |
| |
| When you send a patch, please include the following information with |
| it: |
| |
| * For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes |
| this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the |
| patch actually fixes something. |
| |
| * For new features: a description of the feature and your |
| implementation. |
| |
| * A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch) |
| |
| * For major contributions, add a MAINTAINERS file with your |
| information and associated file and directory references. |
| |
| * When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a |
| maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too. |
| |
| * If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to |
| document these in the README file. |
| |
| * The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly* |
| recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the |
| "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to |
| the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems |
| with some other mail clients. |
| |
| If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of |
| diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of |
| GNU diff. |
| |
| The current directory when running this command shall be the parent |
| directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that |
| your patch includes sufficient directory information for the |
| affected files). |
| |
| We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged, |
| and compressed attachments must not be used. |
| |
| * If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several |
| files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file. |
| |
| * Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be |
| submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset. |
| |
| |
| Notes: |
| |
| * Before sending the patch, run the buildman script on your patched |
| source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported |
| for any of the boards. |
| |
| * Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch |
| containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be |
| returned with a request to re-formatting / split it. |
| |
| * If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not |
| add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful! |
| When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only |
| (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature |
| disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your |
| modification. |
| |
| * Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the |
| u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are |
| reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches |
| bigger than the size limit should be avoided. |
