24Summary:
25========

wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +000027This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
wdenkce4832c2004-10-17 21:12:06 +000028Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
29processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
30initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
31code.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +000032
33The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +000034the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
35header files in common, and special provision has been made to
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +000036support booting of Linux images.
37
38Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
39configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
40implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
41add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
42code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
43load and run it dynamically.
44
45
46Status:
47=======
48
49In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +000050Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +000051"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000239Software Configuration:
240=======================
241
242Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
243rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
244
245There are two classes of configuration variables:
246
247* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
248 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
249 "CONFIG_".
250
251* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
252 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
253 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +0200254 "CONFIG_SYS_".
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000255
256Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
257identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
258do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
259links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
260as an example here.
261
262
263Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
264---------------------------------------------------
265
266For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
267configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
268
269Example: For a TQM823L module type:
270
271 cd u-boot
272 make TQM823L_config
273
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +0200274For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000275e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
276directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
277
278
279Configuration Options:
280----------------------
281
282Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
283such information is kept in a configuration file
284"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
285
286Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
287"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
288
289
wdenk1272e232002-11-10 22:06:23 +0000290Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
291kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
292build a config tool - later.
293
294
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000295The following options need to be configured:
296

York Sun2394a0f2012-10-08 07:44:30 +0000371 CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
372
373 Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
374 the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
375 compliance, among other possible reasons.
376
Kumar Galaf4fb90f2011-02-18 05:40:54 -0600377 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
378
379 Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
380 system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
381 devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
382
Kumar Gala179b1b22011-05-20 00:39:21 -0500383 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT

Prabhakar Kushwahaa6a30622012-04-29 23:56:13 +0000388 CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
389
390 Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
391 around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
392 support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
393 breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this
394 symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
395 purpose.
396
Scott Wood80806962012-08-14 10:14:53 +0000397 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
398
399 Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set,
400 then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
401 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
402
403 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
404 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
405
406 Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
407 for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
408
409 The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
410 of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
411 p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
412 whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
413
414 See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
415 this erratum.

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000500 CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
501
502 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
503 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
504 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
505 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
506 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
507 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
508 Linux kernel.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000509 When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +0100510 "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the

Heiko Schocherffb293a2009-09-23 07:56:08 +0200550 CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
551
552 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
553 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
554 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
555 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
556 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
557 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
558

561 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
562 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
563 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
564 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
565 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
566 in a single configuration file and the machine type is

Wolfgang Denk23f78482011-10-09 21:06:34 +0200715 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
Wolfgang Denkd590fb12011-10-07 09:58:21 +0200716 earlier bytes are discarded.

Wolfgang Denkd590fb12011-10-07 09:58:21 +0200718 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
719 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2

Sonny Raocd55bde2011-11-02 09:52:08 +0000721- Safe printf() functions
722 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
723 the printf() functions. These are defined in
724 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
725 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
726 If this option is not given then these functions will
727 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
728 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
729
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000730- Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
731 Delay before automatically booting the default image;
732 set to -1 to disable autoboot.
Joe Hershberger96ccaf32012-08-17 10:53:12 +0000733 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
734 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000735
736 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
737 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
738 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
739 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
740 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
741 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
742 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
743 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
744 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
745 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
746 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
747 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
748
749- Autoboot Command:
750 CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
751 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
752 define a command string that is automatically executed
753 when no character is read on the console interface
754 within "Boot Delay" after reset.
755
756 CONFIG_BOOTARGS
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +0000757 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
758 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
759 environment value "bootargs".
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000760
761 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +0000762 The value of these goes into the environment as
763 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
764 as a convenience, when switching between booting from
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +0200765 RAM and NFS.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000766
767- Pre-Boot Commands:
768 CONFIG_PREBOOT
769
770 When this option is #defined, the existence of the
771 environment variable "preboot" will be checked
772 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
773 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
774 entering interactive mode.
775
776 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
777 automatically generated or modified. For an example
778 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
779 modified when the user holds down a certain
780 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
781 booting the systems
782
783- Serial Download Echo Mode:
784 CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
785 If defined to 1, all characters received during a
786 serial download (using the "loads" command) are
787 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
788 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
789 time on others. This setting #define's the initial
790 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
791
Jon Loeligerc1da5c92007-06-11 19:03:39 -0500792- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000793 CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
794 Select one of the baudrates listed in
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +0200795 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000796
797- Monitor Functions:
Jon Loeligerc1da5c92007-06-11 19:03:39 -0500798 Monitor commands can be included or excluded
799 from the build by using the #include files
Stephen Warren963a7cf2012-08-05 16:07:19 +0000800 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
801 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
Jon Loeligerc1da5c92007-06-11 19:03:39 -0500802 and augmenting with additional #define's
803 for wanted commands.

909 #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET

Gerald Van Barend6abef42007-03-31 12:23:51 -0400911 Other Commands:
912 fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000913
914 Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
Jon Loeligerc1da5c92007-06-11 19:03:39 -0500915 (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +0000916 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
917 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
918 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
919 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
920 systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
921 initial stack and some data.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000922
923
924 XXX - this list needs to get updated!
925
Simon Glass3d686442011-10-15 05:48:20 +0000926- Device tree:
927 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
928 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
929 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
930 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
931 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
932 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
933
Simon Glass5cb34db2011-10-24 19:15:31 +0000934 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
935 be done using one of the two options below:
Simon Glass38d6b8d2011-10-15 05:48:21 +0000936
937 CONFIG_OF_EMBED
938 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
939 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
940 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
941 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
942 the global data structure as gd->blob.
Simon Glass3d686442011-10-15 05:48:20 +0000943
Simon Glass5cb34db2011-10-24 19:15:31 +0000944 CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
945 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
946 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
947 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
948
949 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
950
951 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
952 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
953 still use the individual files if you need something more
954 exotic.
955
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000956- Watchdog:
957 CONFIG_WATCHDOG
958 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
Detlev Zundel6aa4d7b2011-04-27 05:25:59 +0000959 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
960 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
961 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
962 register. When supported for a specific SoC is
963 available, then no further board specific code should
964 be needed to use it.
965
966 CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
967 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
968 SoC, then define this variable and provide board
969 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000970
stroeseb9c17c52003-04-04 15:53:41 +0000971- U-Boot Version:
972 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
973 If this variable is defined, an environment variable
974 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
975 version as printed by the "version" command.
Benoît Thébaudeauce9a1552012-08-13 15:01:14 +0200976 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
977 next reset.
stroeseb9c17c52003-04-04 15:53:41 +0000978
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000979- Real-Time Clock:
980
Jon Loeligerc1da5c92007-06-11 19:03:39 -0500981 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000982 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
983 following options:
984
985 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx
986 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC
Fabio Estevam3f8d1782011-10-24 06:44:15 +0000987 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC

wdenkaeba06f2004-06-09 17:34:58 +0000994 CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +0200995 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
Heiko Schocher1f1b7012011-03-28 09:24:22 +0200996 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on
997 RV3029 RTC.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000998
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +0000999 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface

Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02001237 attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
Wolfgang Denk3f0137b2006-06-14 17:45:53 +02001238 it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1239 can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
Wolfgang Denke2601822006-06-14 18:14:56 +02001240 appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
Wolfgang Denk3f0137b2006-06-14 17:45:53 +02001241 Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.

1308 viewport is supported.
1309 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1310 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
Lucas Stachf31e4112012-10-01 00:44:35 +02001311 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1312 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1313 the appropriate value in Hz.

wdenkda04a8b2004-08-02 23:22:59 +00001342 Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1343 function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1344
1345 If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02001346 #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1
wdenkda04a8b2004-08-02 23:22:59 +00001347 to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you

Timur Tabi020edd22011-02-15 17:09:19 -06001418 CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
Wolfgang Denk825223d2011-09-11 21:24:09 +02001419 Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for
Timur Tabi020edd22011-02-15 17:09:19 -06001420 SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1421 support, and should also define these other macros:

Timur Tabi32f709e2011-04-11 14:18:22 -05001432 The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1433 variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1434 boot. See the documentation file README.video for a
1435 description of this variable.
Timur Tabi020edd22011-02-15 17:09:19 -06001436
Simon Glass54df8ce2012-12-03 13:59:47 +00001437 CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA

wdenk4e112c12003-06-03 23:54:09 +00001446
wdenk57b2d802003-06-27 21:31:46 +00001447 Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1448 This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1449 defined in your board-specific files.
1450 The only board using this so far is RBC823.

Simon Glass599a4df2012-10-17 13:24:54 +00001504 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1505
1506 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1507 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1508 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1509 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1510 a per-section basis.
1511
Simon Glassaf3e2802012-10-17 13:24:59 +00001512 CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1513
1514 When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1515 lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1516 the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1517 is slow.

1526 information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1527
wdenkeb20ad32003-09-05 23:19:14 +00001528- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
wdenk92bbe3f2003-04-20 14:04:18 +00001529
wdenk57b2d802003-06-27 21:31:46 +00001530 If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1531 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1532 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
wdenk01686632004-06-30 22:59:18 +00001533 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
wdenk57b2d802003-06-27 21:31:46 +00001534 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1535 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1536 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1537 loaded very quickly after power-on.
wdenk92bbe3f2003-04-20 14:04:18 +00001538
Nikita Kiryanov2f3e2ca2013-02-24 21:28:43 +00001539 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1540
1541 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1542 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1543 (see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses).
1544 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1545 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1546 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1547 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1548 there is no need to set this option.
1549
Matthias Weisser53884182009-07-09 16:07:30 +02001550 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1551
1552 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1553 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1554 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1555 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1556 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1557 specify 'm' for centering the image.
1558
1559 Example:
1560 setenv splashpos m,m
1561 => image at center of screen
1562
1563 setenv splashpos 30,20
1564 => image at x = 30 and y = 20
1565
1566 setenv splashpos -10,m
1567 => vertically centered image
1568 at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1569
Nikita Kiryanove0eba1f2013-01-30 21:39:57 +00001570 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_PREPARE
1571
1572 If this option is set then the board_splash_screen_prepare()
1573 function, which must be defined in your code, is called as part
1574 of the splash screen display sequence. It gives the board an
1575 opportunity to prepare the splash image data before it is
1576 processed and sent to the frame buffer by U-Boot.
1577
Stefan Roesed9d97742005-09-22 09:04:17 +02001578- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1579
1580 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1581 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1582 splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1583
Anatolij Gustschin6b4e4fc2010-03-15 14:50:25 +01001584- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1585
1586 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1587 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1588 bmp command.
1589
Lei Wene4e248d2012-09-28 04:26:47 +00001590- Do compresssing for memory range:
1591 CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
1592
1593 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1594 to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1595
wdenk710e3502003-08-29 20:57:53 +00001596- Compression support:
1597 CONFIG_BZIP2
1598
1599 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1600 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1601 compressed images are supported.
1602
wdenk9c53f402003-10-15 23:53:47 +00001603 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02001604 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
wdenk9c53f402003-10-15 23:53:47 +00001605 be at least 4MB.
wdenk92bbe3f2003-04-20 14:04:18 +00001606
Luigi 'Comio' Mantellini35afc062008-09-08 02:46:13 +02001607 CONFIG_LZMA
1608
1609 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1610 images is included.
1611
1612 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1613 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1614 formula:
1615
1616 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1617
1618 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1619 and Literal pos bits.
1620
1621 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1622 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1623 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1624 a very small buffer.
1625
1626 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1627 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02001628 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
Luigi 'Comio' Mantellini35afc062008-09-08 02:46:13 +02001629
wdenk0e2bd9c2004-06-06 21:51:03 +00001630- MII/PHY support:

1636
1637 The clock frequency of the MII bus
1638
1639 CONFIG_PHY_GIGE

1641 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02001642 detection of gigabit PHY is included.
wdenk0e2bd9c2004-06-06 21:51:03 +00001643
1644 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1645
1646 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1647 reset before any MII register access is possible.
1648 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1649 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1650
1651 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1652

1708 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1709 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02001710 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet
David Updegraff7280da72007-06-11 10:41:07 -05001711 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1712 multicast group.
1713
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001714- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1715 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1716
1717 If you have many targets in a network that try to
1718 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1719 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1720 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1721 from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1722 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1723 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1724 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
Wolfgang Denkb65aaf92007-08-06 23:21:05 +02001725 following delays are inserted then:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001726
1727 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec
1728 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec

Jon Loeliger5336a762007-07-09 22:08:34 -05001734 You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1735 CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
stroesee0aadfb2003-08-28 14:17:32 +00001736

stroesee0aadfb2003-08-28 14:17:32 +00001750
Wilson Callan22bcd6e2007-07-28 10:56:13 -04001751 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1752 environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
stroesee0aadfb2003-08-28 14:17:32 +00001753
Joe Hershberger8ca7fa02012-05-23 07:59:19 +00001754 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1755 after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1756 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over
1757 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1758 is not available.
1759
stroesee0aadfb2003-08-28 14:17:32 +00001760 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1761 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1762 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1763 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1764 serverip will be stored in the additional environment
1765 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
1766 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
Jon Loeliger5336a762007-07-09 22:08:34 -05001767 is defined.
stroesee0aadfb2003-08-28 14:17:32 +00001768
1769 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1770 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1771 need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
Wilson Callan22bcd6e2007-07-28 10:56:13 -04001772 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
Jon Loeliger5336a762007-07-09 22:08:34 -05001773 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
1774 option 12 to the DHCP server.
stroesee0aadfb2003-08-28 14:17:32 +00001775
Aras Vaichas72aa3f32008-03-26 09:43:57 +11001776 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1777
1778 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1779 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1780 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1781 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1782 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1783 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1784 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1785 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1786 that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1787 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1788 this delay.
1789
Joe Hershbergerb35a3a62012-05-23 08:00:12 +00001790 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1791 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1792 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1793 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1794 to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1795
1796 See doc/README.link-local for more information.
1797
wdenk145d2c12004-04-15 21:48:45 +00001798 - CDP Options:
wdenk05939202004-04-18 17:39:38 +00001799 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
wdenk145d2c12004-04-15 21:48:45 +00001800
1801 The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
1802
1803 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
1804
1805 A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
1806 of the device.
1807
1808 CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1809
1810 A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1811 the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02001812 eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
wdenk145d2c12004-04-15 21:48:45 +00001813
1814 CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
1815
1816 A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
1817 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
1818
1819 CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
1820
1821 An ascii string containing the version of the software.
1822
1823 CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
1824
1825 An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
1826
1827 CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
1828
1829 A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
1830
1831 CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
1832
1833 A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
1834 device in .1 of milliwatts.
1835
1836 CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
1837
1838 A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
1839
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001840- Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED
1841
1842 Several configurations allow to display the current
1843 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
1844 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
1845 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
1846 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
1847 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
1848 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
1849 feature in U-Boot.
1850
1851- CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
1852
1853 Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
1854 on those systems that support this (optional)
1855 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
1856
1857- I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C
1858
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001859 These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of
wdenk21136db2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00001860 (but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02001861 include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected CPU.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001862
wdenk21136db2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00001863 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
Jon Loeligerc1da5c92007-06-11 19:03:39 -05001864 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001865 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
1866 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00001867 command line interface.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001868
Ben Warren45657152006-09-07 16:50:54 -04001869 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001870
wdenk21136db2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00001871 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001872 bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware
1873 support for I2C.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001874
wdenk21136db2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00001875 There are several other quantities that must also be
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001876 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001877
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02001878 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
wdenk21136db2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00001879 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02001880 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02001881 the CPU's i2c node address).
wdenk21136db2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00001882
Peter Tysere4d1abc2010-04-12 22:28:21 -05001883 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
Stefan Roese88fbf932010-04-15 16:07:28 +02001884 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
Peter Tysere4d1abc2010-04-12 22:28:21 -05001885 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
1886 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
1887 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001888
Eric Millbrandt12990a42009-09-03 08:09:44 -05001889 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
1890
1891 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
1892 chips might think that the current transfer is still
1893 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start
1894 commands until the slave device responds.
1895
wdenk21136db2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00001896 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001897
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001898 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C)
1899 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
1900 from include/configs/lwmon.h):
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001901
1902 I2C_INIT
1903
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001904 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00001905 controller or configure ports.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001906
wdenk544e9732004-02-06 23:19:44 +00001907 eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL)
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001908
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001909 I2C_PORT
1910
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00001911 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
1912 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
1913 are 0..3 for ports A..D.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001914
1915 I2C_ACTIVE
1916
1917 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
1918 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this
1919 define can be null.
1920
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001921 eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA)
1922
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001923 I2C_TRISTATE
1924
1925 The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
1926 (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this
1927 define can be null.
1928
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001929 eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
1930
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001931 I2C_READ
1932
1933 Code that returns TRUE if the I2C data line is high,
1934 FALSE if it is low.
1935
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001936 eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
1937
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001938 I2C_SDA(bit)
1939
1940 If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C data line high. If it
1941 is FALSE, it clears it (low).
1942
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001943 eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
wdenk2bb11052003-07-17 23:16:40 +00001944 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001947 I2C_SCL(bit)
1948
1949 If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
1950 is FALSE, it clears it (low).
1951
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001952 eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001956 I2C_DELAY
1957
1958 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
1959 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001960 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
wdenk21136db2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00001961 like:
1962
wdenkb9bbd242003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001963 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2)
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001964
Mike Frysingeree12d542010-07-21 13:38:02 -04001965 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
1966
1967 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
1968 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
1969 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
1970 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
1971
1972 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to

wdenkcc1e2562003-03-06 13:39:27 +00001976
wdenk57b2d802003-06-27 21:31:46 +00001977 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
1978 chips might think that the current transfer is still
1979 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
1980 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
1981 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
1982 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
1983 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
1984 is run early in the boot sequence.

Richard Retanubundf0149c2010-04-12 15:08:17 -04001986 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
1987
1988 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
1989 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
1990 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
1991 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
1992 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
1993 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
1994 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
1995 controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).

wdenk0e2bd9c2004-06-06 21:51:03 +00001997 CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
1998
1999 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2000 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2001 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2002
Ben Warren45657152006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002003 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2004
2005 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
Wolfgang Denk092ae952011-10-26 10:21:21 +00002006 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is
2007 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
Ben Warren45657152006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002008 Note that bus numbering is zero-based.

Ben Warren45657152006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002011
2012 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
Wolfgang Denk092ae952011-10-26 10:21:21 +00002013 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
Peter Tyser469cde42009-04-18 22:34:03 -05002014 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify
2015 a 1D array of device addresses
Ben Warren45657152006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002016
2017 e.g.

Wolfgang Denk092ae952011-10-26 10:21:21 +00002019 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
Ben Warren45657152006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002020
2021 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus

2030 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2031 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2032
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002033 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
Stefan Roese096cc9b2007-02-20 10:51:26 +01002034
2035 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2036 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2037
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002038 CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
Stefan Roese096cc9b2007-02-20 10:51:26 +01002039
2040 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2041 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2042
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002043 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
Victor Gallardo31856dd2008-09-09 15:13:29 -07002044
2045 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2046 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2047 specified DTT device.
2048
Timur Tabiab347542006-11-03 19:15:00 -06002049 CONFIG_FSL_I2C
2050
2051 Define this option if you want to use Freescale's I2C driver in
Marcel Ziswileraea68562007-12-30 03:30:46 +01002052 drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c.
Timur Tabiab347542006-11-03 19:15:00 -06002053
Heiko Schocher6ee861b2008-10-15 09:39:47 +02002054 CONFIG_I2C_MUX
2055
2056 Define this option if you have I2C devices reached over 1 .. n
2057 I2C Muxes like the pca9544a. This option addes a new I2C
2058 Command "i2c bus [muxtype:muxaddr:muxchannel]" which adds a
2059 new I2C Bus to the existing I2C Busses. If you select the
2060 new Bus with "i2c dev", u-bbot sends first the commandos for
2061 the muxes to activate this new "bus".
2062
2063 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS must be also defined, to use this
2064 feature!
2065
2066 Example:
2067 Adding a new I2C Bus reached over 2 pca9544a muxes
2068 The First mux with address 70 and channel 6
2069 The Second mux with address 71 and channel 4
2070
2071 => i2c bus pca9544a:70:6:pca9544a:71:4
2072
2073 Use the "i2c bus" command without parameter, to get a list
2074 of I2C Busses with muxes:
2075
2076 => i2c bus
2077 Busses reached over muxes:
2078 Bus ID: 2
2079 reached over Mux(es):
2080 pca9544a@70 ch: 4
2081 Bus ID: 3
2082 reached over Mux(es):
2083 pca9544a@70 ch: 6
2084 pca9544a@71 ch: 4
2085 =>
2086
2087 If you now switch to the new I2C Bus 3 with "i2c dev 3"
Michael Jones9c5ef8d2011-07-14 22:09:28 +00002088 u-boot first sends the command to the mux@70 to enable
2089 channel 6, and then the command to the mux@71 to enable
Heiko Schocher6ee861b2008-10-15 09:39:47 +02002090 the channel 4.
2091
2092 After that, you can use the "normal" i2c commands as
Michael Jones9c5ef8d2011-07-14 22:09:28 +00002093 usual to communicate with your I2C devices behind
Heiko Schocher6ee861b2008-10-15 09:39:47 +02002094 the 2 muxes.
2095
2096 This option is actually implemented for the bitbanging
2097 algorithm in common/soft_i2c.c and for the Hardware I2C
2098 Bus on the MPC8260. But it should be not so difficult
2099 to add this option to other architectures.
2100
Andrew Dyer58c41f92008-12-29 17:36:01 -06002101 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2102
2103 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2104 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2105 between writing the address pointer and reading the
2106 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2107 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C
2108 devices can use either method, but some require one or
2109 the other.

2131 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2132 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2133 defined, the board configuration must define several
2134 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For

2215 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002216
2217- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2218
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002219 U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2220 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
wdenkeb20ad32003-09-05 23:19:14 +00002221 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002222 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2223 protects these variables from casual modification by
2224 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2225 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002226 change this behaviour:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002227
2228 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2229 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
wdenkcc1e2562003-03-06 13:39:27 +00002230 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002231 these parameters.
2232
2233 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2234 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002235 Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002236 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2237 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2238 read-only.]
2239
Joe Hershberger71497d02012-12-11 22:16:31 -06002240 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2241 for any variable by configuring the type of access
2242 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2243 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2244
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002245- Protected RAM:
2246 CONFIG_PRAM
2247
2248 Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2249 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2250 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2251 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2252 this default value by defining an environment
2253 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2254 reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2255 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2256 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2257 automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2258 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2259 argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2260
Wolfgang Denk86eb3b72005-11-20 21:40:11 +01002261 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002262 saveenv
2263
2264 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2265 either, which results in a memory region that will
2266 not be affected by reboots.
2267
2268 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2269 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2270 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2271 following board configurations are known to be
2272 "pRAM-clean":

Gabe Blacka2f3a932012-12-02 04:55:18 +00002278- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2279 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2280 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2281 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2282 machines using physical address extension or similar.
2283 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2284 currently only supports clearing the memory.
2285
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002286- Error Recovery:
2287 CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2288
2289 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2290 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2291 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002292 system where you want the system to reboot
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002293 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2294 useful during development since you can try to debug
2295 the conditions that lead to the situation.
2296
2297 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2298
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002299 This variable defines the number of retries for
2300 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2301 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2302 default value of 5 is used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002303
Guennadi Liakhovetskib38c2b32008-04-03 17:04:19 +02002304 CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2305
2306 Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2307
Tetsuyuki Kobayashi147e3902012-07-03 22:25:21 +00002308 CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2309
2310 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2311 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2312 try longer timeout such as
2313 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2314
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002315- Command Interpreter:
Wolfgang Denk81352ed2006-10-28 02:28:02 +02002316 CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
wdenk3902d702004-04-15 18:22:41 +00002317
2318 Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2319
Wolfgang Denk018147d2006-11-27 15:32:42 +01002320 Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2321 for the "hush" shell.
Wolfgang Denk81352ed2006-10-28 02:28:02 +02002322
2323
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002324 CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002325
2326 Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2327 Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2328 powerful command line syntax like
2329 if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2330 constructs ("shell scripts").
2331
2332 If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2333 with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2334
2335
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002336 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002337
2338 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2339 printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2340 to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2341
2342 Note:
2343
wdenk57b2d802003-06-27 21:31:46 +00002344 In the current implementation, the local variables
2345 space and global environment variables space are
2346 separated. Local variables are those you define by
2347 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2348 variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2349 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2350 directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002351
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002352 Global environment variables are those you use
2353 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2354 in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2355 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002356
2357 To store commands and special characters in a
2358 variable, please use double quotation marks
2359 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2360 of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2361 symbols.
2362
Wolfgang Denk2039a072006-07-21 11:35:21 +02002363- Commandline Editing and History:
2364 CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2365
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002366 Enable editing and History functions for interactive
Wolfgang Denkc80857e2006-07-21 11:56:05 +02002367 commandline input operations
Wolfgang Denk2039a072006-07-21 11:35:21 +02002368
wdenkc0aa5c52003-12-06 19:49:23 +00002369- Default Environment:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002370 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2371
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002372 Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2373 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
wdenkeb20ad32003-09-05 23:19:14 +00002374 the default environment compiled into the boot image.
wdenk591dda52002-11-18 00:14:45 +00002375
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002376 For example, place something like this in your
2377 board's config file:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002378
2379 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2380 "myvar1=value1\0" \
2381 "myvar2=value2\0"
2382
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002383 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2384 internal format how the environment is stored by the
2385 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2386 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
wdenkeb20ad32003-09-05 23:19:14 +00002387 will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002388 You better know what you are doing here.
2389
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002390 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2391 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
Wolfgang Denk85c25df2009-04-01 23:34:12 +02002392 the environment like the "source" command or the
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002393 boot command first.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002394
Stephen Warren1465d5f2012-05-22 09:21:54 +00002395 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2396
2397 Define this in order to add variables describing the
2398 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2399 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2400
2401 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2402
2403 - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
2404 - CONFIG_SYS_CPU
2405 - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
2406 - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
2407 - CONFIG_SYS_SOC
2408
Tom Rini4c8cc9b2012-10-24 07:28:16 +00002409 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2410
2411 Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2412 run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2413 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2414
Simon Glass6b8d5fd2012-11-30 13:01:17 +00002415 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2416
2417 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2418 intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2419 that so that the environment is not available until
2420 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2421 this is instead controlled by the value of
2422 /config/load-environment.
2423
wdenkc0aa5c52003-12-06 19:49:23 +00002424- DataFlash Support:
wdenk381669a2003-06-16 23:50:08 +00002425 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2426
wdenk57b2d802003-06-27 21:31:46 +00002427 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2428 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2429 commands cp, md...
wdenk381669a2003-06-16 23:50:08 +00002430
Eric Nelson97f5f8f2012-01-31 10:52:08 -07002431- Serial Flash support
2432 CONFIG_CMD_SF
2433
2434 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2435 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2436
2437 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2438 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2439 commands.
2440
2441 The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2442 to handle the common case when only a single serial
2443 flash is present on the system.
2444
2445 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier
2446 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select
2447 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h)
2448 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz
2449
Simon Glass4b5545e2012-10-08 13:16:02 +00002450 CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
2451
2452 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2453 test ('sf test').
2454
wdenkef893942004-02-23 16:11:30 +00002455- SystemACE Support:
2456 CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2457
2458 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2459 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002460 of the chip must also be defined in the
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002461 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
wdenkef893942004-02-23 16:11:30 +00002462
2463 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002464 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
wdenkef893942004-02-23 16:11:30 +00002465
2466 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2467 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2468
Wolfgang Denke3cfce52005-09-24 22:37:32 +02002469- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2470 CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2471
Wolfgang Denk227b5192005-09-24 23:25:46 +02002472 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
Wolfgang Denke3cfce52005-09-24 22:37:32 +02002473 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
Wolfgang Denk227b5192005-09-24 23:25:46 +02002474 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
Wolfgang Denke3cfce52005-09-24 22:37:32 +02002475 number generator is used.
2476
Wolfgang Denk227b5192005-09-24 23:25:46 +02002477 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2478 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't
2479 defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2480
2481 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
Wolfgang Denke3cfce52005-09-24 22:37:32 +02002482 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2483 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2484 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2485 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2486 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2487 but sometimes that is not allowed.
2488
Simon Glass058bb8d2012-12-05 14:46:38 +00002489- Hashing support:
2490 CONFIG_CMD_HASH
2491
2492 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2493 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2494
2495 CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
2496
2497 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2498 size a little.
2499
2500 CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2501 CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2502
2503 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2504 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2505
wdenkc0aa5c52003-12-06 19:49:23 +00002506- Show boot progress:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002507 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2508
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002509 Defining this option allows to add some board-
2510 specific code (calling a user-provided function
2511 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2512 the system's boot progress on some display (for
2513 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2514 the following checkpoints are implemented:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002515
Simon Glass31a870e2012-02-13 13:51:19 +00002516- Detailed boot stage timing
2517 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
2518 Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
2519 of the boot process.
2520
2521 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
2522 This is the number of available user bootstage records.
2523 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
2524 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
2525 the limit, recording will stop.
2526
2527 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
2528 Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
2529
2530 Timer summary in microseconds:
2531 Mark Elapsed Stage
2532 0 0 reset
2533 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start
2534 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9
2535 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done
2536 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start
2537 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop
2538 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start
2539 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel
2540
Simon Glass4afd88e2012-09-28 08:56:39 +00002541 CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
2542 Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
2543 and un/stashing of bootstage data.
2544
Simon Glass0fa36a42012-09-28 08:56:37 +00002545 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
2546 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
2547 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
2548 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
2549 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
2550 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
2551 For example:
2552
2553 bootstage {
2554 154 {
2555 name = "board_init_f";
2556 mark = <3575678>;
2557 };
2558 170 {
2559 name = "lcd";
2560 accum = <33482>;
2561 };
2562 };
2563
2564 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

2744 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
2745 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
2746 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
2747 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
2748 configured panel size.

wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002951 In the target system modem support is enabled when a
2952 specific key (key combination) is pressed during
2953 power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002954 (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002955 board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
2956 function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
2957 initialization.

2967------------------------------
2968
2969During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
2970to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
2971before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
2972following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
2973architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
2974typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().

Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003009- CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
wdenk57b2d802003-06-27 21:31:46 +00003010 If the board specific function
3011 extern int overwrite_console (void);

3037 the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3038 This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
Stefan Roese37f31bf2008-03-28 11:02:53 +01003039 board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that

Stefan Roese37f31bf2008-03-28 11:02:53 +01003041 will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
Stefan Roesea13709f2008-03-26 10:14:11 +01003042
3043 This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3044 CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3045 be touched.
3046
3047 WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3048 the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3049 then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3050 non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3051 problems.

Stefan Roese5d5ce292006-03-13 11:16:36 +01003082 Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
3083 uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003084 you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
Stefan Roese5d5ce292006-03-13 11:16:36 +01003085 to adjust this setting to your needs.
3086

3133
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003134- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003135
3136 Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
3137 without this option such a download has to be
3138 performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
3139 copy from RAM to flash.
3140
3141 The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
3142 you can check if the download worked before you erase
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003143 the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
3144 too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003145 downloaded image) this option may be very useful.

3169 print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
3170 is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
3171 optionally available.
3172
Jerry Van Barenaae73572008-03-08 13:48:01 -05003173- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS

Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003179 Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
3180 Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
stroese94ef1cf2003-06-05 15:39:44 +00003181 to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
3182 buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003183 on high Ethernet traffic.
stroese94ef1cf2003-06-05 15:39:44 +00003184 Defaults to 4 if not defined.

3195- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3196 Enable validation of the values given to enviroment variables when
3197 calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3198 hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3199 the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3200
3201 The format of the list is:
3202 type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
Joe Hershberger6fe26c92012-12-11 22:16:34 -06003203 access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
3204 attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
Joe Hershberger71497d02012-12-11 22:16:31 -06003205 entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3206 list = entry[,list]
3207
3208 The type attributes are:
3209 s - String (default)
3210 d - Decimal
3211 x - Hexadecimal
3212 b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3213 i - IP address
3214 m - MAC address
3215
Joe Hershberger6fe26c92012-12-11 22:16:34 -06003216 The access attributes are:
3217 a - Any (default)
3218 r - Read-only
3219 o - Write-once
3220 c - Change-default
3221
Joe Hershberger71497d02012-12-11 22:16:31 -06003222 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3223 Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3224 envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3225
3226 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3227 Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3228 should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3229 environment variable. To override a setting in the static
3230 list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3231 ".flags" variable.
3232
Joe Hershberger6fe26c92012-12-11 22:16:34 -06003233- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3234 If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3235 access flags.
3236
Simon Glass66828322013-03-08 13:45:27 +00003237- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
3238 This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
3239 architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
3240 to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
3241 arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
3242 common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
3243 must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
3244 its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
3245 your board please report the problem and send patches!
3246
Simon Glass9c9f44a2013-03-11 07:06:48 +00003247- CONFIG_SYS_SYM_OFFSETS
3248 This is set by architectures that use offsets for link symbols
3249 instead of absolute values. So bss_start is obtained using an
3250 offset _bss_start_ofs from CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, rather than
3251 directly. You should not need to touch this setting.
3252
3253
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003254The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3255of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3256following configurations:
3257
Mike Frysinger63b8f122011-07-08 10:44:25 +00003258- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3259
3260 Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3261 may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3262
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD53db4cd2008-09-10 22:48:04 +02003263- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003264
3265 Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
3266
3267 a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
3268 "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
3269 happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
3270 sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
3271 sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
3272 layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
3273 such a case you would place the environment in one of the
3274 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
3275 "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
3276 environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
3277 between U-Boot and the environment.
3278
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003279 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003280
3281 Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
3282 beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
3283 type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
3284 for this sector is given here.
3285
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003286 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003287
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003288 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003289
3290 This is just another way to specify the start address of
3291 the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003292 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003293
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003294 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003295
3296 Size of the sector containing the environment.
3297
3298
3299 b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
3300 In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
3301 the environment.
3302
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003303 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003304
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD53db4cd2008-09-10 22:48:04 +02003305 If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003306 and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003307 of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
3308 memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
3309
3310 It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
3311 when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
3312 since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
3313 for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
3314 STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
3315 updating the environment in flash makes it always
3316 necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
3317 wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
3318 RAM, your target system will be dead.
3319
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003320 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
3321 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003322
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003323 These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003324 a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
wdenkb02744a2003-04-05 00:53:31 +00003325 a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003326 a "saveenv" operation.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003327
3328BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
3329source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
3330accordingly!
3331
3332
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARDfdb79c32008-09-10 22:47:59 +02003333- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003334
3335 Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
3336 (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
3337 environment.
3338
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003339 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3340 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003341
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003342 These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003343 want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
3344 can just be read and written to, without any special
3345 provision.
3346
3347BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3348in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003349console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003350U-Boot will hang.
3351
3352Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3353environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3354keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3355to save the current settings.
3356
3357
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARDe46af642008-09-05 09:19:30 +02003358- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003359
3360 Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
3361 device and a driver for it.
3362
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003363 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3364 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003365
3366 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
3367 environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
3368
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003369 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003370 If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
3371 The default address is zero.
3372
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003373 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003374 If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
3375 single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example
3376 would require six bits.
3377
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003378 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003379 If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
wdenk544e9732004-02-06 23:19:44 +00003380 page writes. The default is zero milliseconds.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003381
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003382 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003383 The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note
3384 that this is NOT the chip address length!
3385
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003386 - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
wdenk20c98a62004-04-23 20:32:05 +00003387 EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
3388 like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
3389 address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
3390 slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
3391 byte chips.
3392
3393 Note that we consider the length of the address field to
3394 still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
3395 in the chip address.
3396
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003397 - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003398 The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
3399
Heiko Schocher9bb0dd52010-01-07 08:55:40 +01003400 - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
3401 define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
3402 EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
3403
3404 - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
3405 if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
3406 I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
3407 EEPROM. For example:
3408
Wolfgang Denk16fa98a2010-06-13 17:48:15 +02003409 #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS "pca9547:70:d\0"
Heiko Schocher9bb0dd52010-01-07 08:55:40 +01003410
3411 EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
3412 a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003413
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD2b14d2b2008-09-10 22:47:58 +02003414- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
wdenk86765902003-12-06 23:55:10 +00003415
wdenk1ebf41e2004-01-02 14:00:00 +00003416 Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
wdenk86765902003-12-06 23:55:10 +00003417 want to use for the environment.
3418
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003419 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3420 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3421 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
wdenk86765902003-12-06 23:55:10 +00003422
3423 These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
3424 environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
3425 at the specified address.
3426
Liu Gang85bcd732012-03-08 00:33:20 +00003427- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
3428
3429 Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
3430 want to use for the local device's environment.
3431
3432 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
3433 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
3434
3435 These two #defines specify the address and size of the
3436 environment area within the remote memory space. The
3437 local device can get the environment from remote memory
Liu Gang357bf5a2012-08-09 05:10:01 +00003438 space by SRIO or PCIE links.
Liu Gang85bcd732012-03-08 00:33:20 +00003439
3440BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3441"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
Liu Gang357bf5a2012-08-09 05:10:01 +00003442environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3443but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
Liu Gang85bcd732012-03-08 00:33:20 +00003444
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARDdda84dd2008-09-10 22:47:58 +02003445- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
wdenk79b59372004-06-09 14:58:14 +00003446
3447 Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
3448 for the environment.
3449
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003450 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
3451 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
wdenk79b59372004-06-09 14:58:14 +00003452
3453 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
Scott Wood08239322010-09-17 14:38:37 -05003454 area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
3455 aligned to an erase block boundary.
wdenk86765902003-12-06 23:55:10 +00003456
Scott Wood08239322010-09-17 14:38:37 -05003457 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
Markus Klotzbuecher5d113e02006-03-20 18:02:44 +01003458
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD7e1cda62008-09-10 22:48:06 +02003459 This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
Scott Wood08239322010-09-17 14:38:37 -05003460 size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
3461 that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
Wolfgang Denk092ae952011-10-26 10:21:21 +00003462 during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
Scott Wood08239322010-09-17 14:38:37 -05003463 aligned to an erase block boundary.
3464
3465 - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
3466
3467 Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
3468 can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
3469 block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
3470 are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
3471 the range to be avoided.
3472
3473 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
Markus Klotzbuecher5d113e02006-03-20 18:02:44 +01003474
Scott Wood08239322010-09-17 14:38:37 -05003475 Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
3476 environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The
3477 "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
3478 Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
3479 using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
Markus Klotzbuecher5d113e02006-03-20 18:02:44 +01003480
Guennadi Liakhovetskifad24442009-05-18 16:07:22 +02003481- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
3482
3483 Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
3484 environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
3485 CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3486
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003487- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003488
3489 Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
3490 area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
3491 is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
3492 scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
3493 calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
3494 to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
3495 start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
3496
Bruce Adleredecc942007-11-02 13:15:42 -07003497Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003498has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
Wolfgang Denk76af2782010-07-24 21:55:43 +02003499created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003500until then to read environment variables.
3501
wdenk8dba0502003-03-31 16:34:49 +00003502The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
3503is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working

Timur Tabid8f341c2011-08-04 18:03:41 -05003552- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
3553 Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
3554 PowerPC SOCs.
3555
3556- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
3557 Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically
3558 the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
3559
3560 CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
3561 for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
3562
3563- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
3564 Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new
3565 physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should
Wolfgang Denk092ae952011-10-26 10:21:21 +00003566 be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the
Timur Tabid8f341c2011-08-04 18:03:41 -05003567 same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR
3568 is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended
3569 that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
3570
3571 #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
3572 * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)

Wolfgang Denkd590fb12011-10-07 09:58:21 +02003575 Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically
3576 either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is
Timur Tabid8f341c2011-08-04 18:03:41 -05003577 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3578 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3579
3580- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3581 Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is
3582 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3583 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3584
3585- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
3586 If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
3587 forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.

Alex Watermancd6aae32011-05-19 15:08:36 -04003758- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_16
3759 Defined to tell the NDFC that the NAND chip is using a
3760 16 bit bus.
3761
3762- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG
3763 Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined
3764 a default value will be used.

3772
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003773- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01003774 If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
3775 one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
3776 to something your driver can deal with.
Ben Warren45657152006-09-07 16:50:54 -04003777
York Sune73cc042011-06-07 09:42:16 +08003778- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
3779 Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
3780 soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
3781 parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
3782 header files or board specific files.
3783
York Sunbd495cf2011-09-16 13:21:35 -07003784- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
3785 Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
3786
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003787- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01003788 Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
3789 be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.

wdenk6203e402004-04-18 10:13:26 +00003791- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
3792 Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
3793
3794- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
3795 Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
wdenk05939202004-04-18 17:39:38 +00003796 to the given FEC; i. e.
3797 #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
wdenk6203e402004-04-18 10:13:26 +00003798 means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
3799
3800 When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
3801
3802- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
3803 The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
3804 (so program the FEC to ignore it).
3805
3806- CONFIG_RMII
3807 Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
3808 Note that this is a global option, we can't
3809 have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
3810
wdenk20c98a62004-04-23 20:32:05 +00003811- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
3812 Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
3813 The syntax is:
3814
3815 => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
3816
3817 Where address/count indicate a memory area
3818 and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
3819 area should have.
3820
wdenk64519362004-07-11 17:40:54 +00003821- CONFIG_LOOPW
3822 Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
Jon Loeligerc1da5c92007-06-11 19:03:39 -05003823 the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
wdenk64519362004-07-11 17:40:54 +00003824
stroesecc3af832004-12-16 18:46:55 +00003825- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
3826 Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
3827 "md/mw" commands.
3828 Examples:
3829
wdenk07d7e6b2004-12-16 21:44:03 +00003830 => mdc.b 10 4 500
stroesecc3af832004-12-16 18:46:55 +00003831 This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
3832
wdenk07d7e6b2004-12-16 21:44:03 +00003833 => mwc.l 100 12345678 10
stroesecc3af832004-12-16 18:46:55 +00003834 This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
3835
wdenk07d7e6b2004-12-16 21:44:03 +00003836 This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
Jon Loeligerc1da5c92007-06-11 19:03:39 -05003837 globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
stroesecc3af832004-12-16 18:46:55 +00003838
wdenk3d3d99f2005-04-04 12:44:11 +00003839- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
Macpaul Lin1cac36e2011-10-19 20:41:11 +00003840 [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
Wolfgang Denk302141d2010-11-27 23:30:56 +01003841 low level initializations (like setting up the memory
3842 controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
3843 relocate itself into RAM.
wdenk3d3d99f2005-04-04 12:44:11 +00003844
Wolfgang Denk302141d2010-11-27 23:30:56 +01003845 Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
3846 exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
3847 other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
3848 these initializations itself.
wdenk3d3d99f2005-04-04 12:44:11 +00003849
Aneesh V552a3192011-07-13 05:11:07 +00003850- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
Magnus Lilja1ec96d82009-06-13 20:50:00 +02003851 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
3852 that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
3853 compiling a NAND SPL.
wdenk336b2bc2005-04-02 23:52:25 +00003854
Simon Glass17dabf02013-02-24 17:33:14 +00003855- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
3856 Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
3857 effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
3858 U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
3859 to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
3860 it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
3861 addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
3862 to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
3863
Matthias Weisser93416c12011-03-10 21:36:32 +00003864- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
3865 CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
3866 If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
3867 be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
3868 conditions but may increase the binary size.
3869
Simon Glassbfb59802013-02-14 04:18:54 +00003870- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
3871 If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
3872 needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
Gabe Black14f82462012-11-27 21:08:06 +00003873
Mark Jackson52b003c2013-03-04 01:27:20 +00003874- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
3875 Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).
3876
3877 NOTE : currently only supported on AM335x platforms.

Timur Tabi275f4bb2011-11-22 09:21:25 -06003879Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
3880-----------------------------------
3881
3882The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
3883loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
3884This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
3885are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
3886within that device.
3887
3888- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
3889 The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The
3890 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
3891 is also specified.
3892
3893- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
3894 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format
3895 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
3896 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
3897 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
3898
3899- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
3900 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
3901 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
3902 virtual address in NOR flash.
3903
3904- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
3905 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
3906 CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
3907
3908- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
3909 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
3910 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
3911
3912- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
3913 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
3914 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
3915
Liu Gang1e084582012-03-08 00:33:18 +00003916- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
3917 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
3918 memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
Liu Gang357bf5a2012-08-09 05:10:01 +00003919 can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
3920 window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
3921 master's memory space.

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003923Building the Software:
3924======================
3925
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01003926Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
3927and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
3928all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
3929(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
3930recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
3931which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003932
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01003933If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
3934have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
3935you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
3936Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
3937necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003938
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01003939 $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
3940 $ export CROSS_COMPILE
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003941
Peter Tyserb06976d2009-03-13 18:54:51 -05003942Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
3943 the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
3944 (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
3945 toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example:
3946
3947 $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
3948
3949 Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
3950 be executed on computers running Windows.
3951
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01003952U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
3953sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003954is done by typing:
3955
3956 make NAME_config
3957
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01003958where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
Michael Jones5a7fb6f2012-03-15 22:48:10 +00003959rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
wdenk2f0812d2003-10-08 22:45:44 +00003960
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00003961Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
3962 additional information is available from the board vendor; for
3963 instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
3964 or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003965 when choosing the configuration, i. e.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003966
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00003967 make TQM823L_config
3968 - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003969
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00003970 make TQM823L_LCD_config
3971 - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003972
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00003973 etc.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003974
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003975
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00003976Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
3977images ready for download to / installation on your system:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003978
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00003979- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
3980- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
3981- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003982
Marian Balakowiczefe063f2006-09-07 17:25:40 +02003983By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
3984in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
3985this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
3986
39871. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
3988
3989 make O=/tmp/build distclean
3990 make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
3991 make O=/tmp/build all
3992
39932. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
3994
3995 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
3996 make distclean
3997 make NAME_config
3998 make all
3999
4000Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
4001variable.
4002
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004003
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004004Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
4005for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
4006native "make".
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004007
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004008
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004009If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
4010to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
4011steps:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004012
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +000040131. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
Michael Jones5a7fb6f2012-03-15 22:48:10 +00004014 "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
4015 Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +000040162. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
4017 files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
4018 the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
40193. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
4020 your board
40213. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
4022 directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
40234. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
40245. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
4025 to be installed on your target system.
40266. Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
4027 [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004028

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004030Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
4031==============================================================
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004032
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01004033If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
4034or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004035provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
4036the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01004037official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004038
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01004039But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
4040cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004041the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
4042just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01004043for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
4044select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
4045environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
4046you can type
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004047
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004048 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004049
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004050or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004051
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004052 CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004053
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01004054When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
4055U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
4056setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
4057built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
4058<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
4059location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
4060variable. For example:
Marian Balakowiczefe063f2006-09-07 17:25:40 +02004061
4062 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
4063 export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
4064 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
4065
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01004066With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
4067log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
4068during the whole build process.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004131Environment Variables:
4132======================
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004133
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004134U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
4135can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004136
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004137Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
4138"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
4139without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
4140environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
4141working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
4142environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004143
Wolfgang Denkb233bd72010-01-17 23:55:53 +01004144Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
4145
4146List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004147
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004148 baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004149
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004150 bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004151
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004152 bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004153
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004154 bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004155
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004156 bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004157
Bartlomiej Siekac5648c82008-04-14 15:44:16 +02004158 bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4159 command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4160 a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
4161 for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
4162 environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
4163 also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
Grant Likely26396382011-03-28 09:58:43 +00004164 kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
4165 bootm_mapsize.
4166
Wolfgang Denk092ae952011-10-26 10:21:21 +00004167 bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
Grant Likely26396382011-03-28 09:58:43 +00004168 This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
4169 defines the size of the memory region starting at base
4170 address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
4171 during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
4172 as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
4173 used otherwise.
Bartlomiej Siekac5648c82008-04-14 15:44:16 +02004174
4175 bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
4176 command can be restricted. This variable is given as
4177 a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
4178 allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
4179 environment variable.
4180
Bartlomiej Siekae273e9f2008-10-01 15:26:31 +02004181 updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
4182 by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
4183 documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
4184
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004185 autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
4186 "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
4187 configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
4188 load any image using TFTP
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004189
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004190 autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
4191 "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
4192 be automatically started (by internally calling
4193 "bootm")
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004194
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004195 If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
4196 "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
4197 (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
4198 This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
4199 data.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004200
David A. Longd558a4e2011-07-09 16:40:19 -04004201 fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the
4202 flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
Shawn Guo0ca9e982012-01-09 21:54:08 +00004203 For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
4204 at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
4205 only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
4206 may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
4207 device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
4208 of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
4209 access it during the boot procedure.
4210
David A. Longd558a4e2011-07-09 16:40:19 -04004211 If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
4212 the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this
4213 to work it must reside in writable memory, have
4214 sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
4215 add the information it needs into it, and the memory
4216 must be accessible by the kernel.
4217
Simon Glassdc6fa642011-10-24 19:15:34 +00004218 fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
4219 device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
4220 defined.
4221
wdenk0e2bd9c2004-06-06 21:51:03 +00004222 i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
4223 if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
4224 mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
4225 initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
4226 it must be saved and board must be reset.
4227
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004228 initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images:
4229 If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
4230 copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
4231 is usually what you want since it allows for
4232 maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
4233 make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004234 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004235 variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
4236 Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
4237 address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
4238 does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004239
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004240 For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
4241 RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
4242 you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
4243 the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
4244 sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
4245 12 MB as well - this can be done with
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004246
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004247 setenv initrd_high 00c00000
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004248
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004249 If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
4250 indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
4251 for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
4252 memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
4253 ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
4254 boot time on your system, but requires that this
4255 feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
wdenk3f9ab982003-04-12 23:38:12 +00004256
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004257 ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004271
Mike Frysingera23230c2011-10-02 10:01:27 +00004272 ethprime - controls which interface is used first.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004273
Mike Frysingera23230c2011-10-02 10:01:27 +00004274 ethact - controls which interface is currently active.
4275 For example you can do the following
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004276
Heiko Schocherc5e84052010-07-20 17:45:02 +02004277 => setenv ethact FEC
4278 => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
4279 => setenv ethact SCC
4280 => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004281
Matthias Fuchs204f0ec2008-01-17 07:45:05 +01004282 ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
4283 available network interfaces.
4284 It just stays at the currently selected interface.
4285
Wolfgang Denkb233bd72010-01-17 23:55:53 +01004286 netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004287 either succeed or fail without retrying.
4288 When set to "once" the network operation will
4289 fail when all the available network interfaces
4290 are tried once without success.
4291 Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
4292 themselves.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004293
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD1948d6c2009-01-31 09:53:39 +01004294 npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARDd2164ef2008-01-07 08:41:34 +01004295
Wolfgang Denk227b5192005-09-24 23:25:46 +02004296 tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
Wolfgang Denke3cfce52005-09-24 22:37:32 +02004297 UDP source port.
4298
Wolfgang Denk227b5192005-09-24 23:25:46 +02004299 tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
4300 destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
4301
Wolfgang Denkb233bd72010-01-17 23:55:53 +01004302 tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
4303 we use the TFTP server's default block size
4304
4305 tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
4306 seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
4307 when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
4308 be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
4309 Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
4310 faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
4311 with unreliable TFTP servers.
4312
4313 vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02004314 Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004315 VLAN tagged frames.

Jason Hobbse3fe08e2011-08-31 05:37:28 +00004317The following image location variables contain the location of images
4318used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
4319not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
4320variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
4321server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
4322loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
4323flash or offset in NAND flash.
4324
4325*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
4326boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
4327boards use these variables for other purposes.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004357These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
4358the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
4359once they have been set once.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004364 ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
4365 with the "version" command. This variable is

Joe Hershberger60fd3ad2012-12-11 22:16:24 -06004373Callback functions for environment variables:
4374---------------------------------------------
4375
4376For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
4377when their values are changed. This functionailty allows functions to
4378be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or
4379deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
4380effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
4381
4382The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
4383U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
4384
4385These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The
4386static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
4387in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
4388associations. The list must be in the following format:
4389
4390 entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
4391 list = entry[,list]
4392
4393If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
4394Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
4395
4396Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
4397with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will
4398override any association in the static list. You can define
4399CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
4400".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004403Command Line Parsing:
4404=====================
stroeseb9c17c52003-04-04 15:53:41 +00004405
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004406There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
4407the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004408
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004409Old, simple command line parser:
4410--------------------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004411
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004412- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
4413- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
Wolfgang Denk86eb3b72005-11-20 21:40:11 +01004414- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004415- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
4416 for example:
Wolfgang Denk86eb3b72005-11-20 21:40:11 +01004417 setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004418- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
4419 setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004420
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004421Hush shell:
4422-----------
wdenkf4688a22003-05-28 08:06:31 +00004423
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004424- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4425 if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4426 until...do...done, ...
4427- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4428 commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4429 "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4430 command
wdenkf4688a22003-05-28 08:06:31 +00004431
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004432General rules:
4433--------------
wdenkf4688a22003-05-28 08:06:31 +00004434
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004435(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4436 command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4437 one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4438 executed anyway.
wdenkf4688a22003-05-28 08:06:31 +00004439
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004440(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02004441 calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004442 command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4443 variables are not executed.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004445Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4446=======================================
wdenkf4688a22003-05-28 08:06:31 +00004447
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02004448Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004449such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
4450"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
wdenkf4688a22003-05-28 08:06:31 +00004451
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004452Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4453MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4454"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
wdenkf4688a22003-05-28 08:06:31 +00004455
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004456If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4457in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4458ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4459variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
wdenkf4688a22003-05-28 08:06:31 +00004460
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004461o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4462 environment, the SROM's address is used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004463
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004464o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4465 environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4466 used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004467
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004468o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4469 both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004470
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004471o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4472 addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4473 warning is printed.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004474
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004475o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4476 is raised.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004477
Ben Warren6db991a2010-04-26 11:11:46 -07004478If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
Wolfgang Denk092ae952011-10-26 10:21:21 +00004479will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This
Ben Warren6db991a2010-04-26 11:11:46 -07004480may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4481The naming convention is as follows:
4482"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004483
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004484Image Formats:
4485==============
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004486
Marian Balakowicz18710b82008-03-12 12:13:13 +01004487U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
4488images in two formats:
4489
4490New uImage format (FIT)
4491-----------------------
4492
4493Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
4494to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
4495components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
4496SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
4497
4498
4499Old uImage format
4500-----------------
4501
4502Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
4503preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
4504details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004505

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004520The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
4521and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
4522CRC32 checksums.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004523
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004524
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004525Linux Support:
4526==============
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004527
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004528Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
4529easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4530U-Boot.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004531
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004532U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4533special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4534"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4535instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
4536serves several purposes:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004537
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004538- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4539 applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4540 Flash memory footprint)
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004541
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004542- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
4543 lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004544
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004545- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4546 images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4547 be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4548 have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4549 change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4550 software is easier now.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004553Linux HOWTO:
4554============
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004555
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004556Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4557---------------------------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004558
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004559U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4560configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4561(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4562Linux :-).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004563
Stefan Roese88fbf932010-04-15 16:07:28 +02004564But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004565
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004566Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
4567include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
Markus Heidelberg47167572008-09-07 20:18:27 +02004568Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
4569and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004570as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004571
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004572
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004573Configuring the Linux kernel:
4574-----------------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004575
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004576No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
4577device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004578

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004580Building a Linux Image:
4581-----------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004582
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004583With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
4584not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
4585"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
4586U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
4587which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
4588100% compatible format.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004589
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004590Example:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004591
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004592 make TQM850L_config
4593 make oldconfig
4594 make dep
4595 make uImage
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004596
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004597The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
4598encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information,
4599CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004600
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004601* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004602
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004603* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004604
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004605 ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
4606 -R .note -R .comment \
4607 -S vmlinux linux.bin
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004608
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004609* compress the binary image:
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004610
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004611 gzip -9 linux.bin
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004612
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004613* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004614
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004615 mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
4616 -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
4617 -d linux.bin.gz uImage
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004618
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004619
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004620The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
4621with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
4622combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
4623byte header containing information about target architecture,
4624operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
4625stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004626
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004627"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
4628print the header information, or to build new images.
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004629
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004630In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
4631contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
4632checksum verification:
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004633
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004634 tools/mkimage -l image
4635 -l ==> list image header information
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004636
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004637The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
4638from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004639
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004640 tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
4641 -n name -d data_file image
4642 -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
4643 -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
4644 -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4645 -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
4646 -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
4647 -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
4648 -n ==> set image name to 'name'
4649 -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00004650
wdenkcd914452004-05-29 16:53:29 +00004651Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
4652address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
4653kernel version:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004654
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004655- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
4656- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004657
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004658So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004659

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004713Installing a Linux Image:
4714-------------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004715
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004716To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
4717you must convert the image to S-Record format:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004718
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004719 objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004720
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004721The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
4722image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
4723address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
4724specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
4725command.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004726
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004727Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004897
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004898 "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
4899 provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
4900 well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
4901 the Standalone Program.
4902 "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
4903 will take over control completely. Usually these programs
4904 will install their own set of exception handlers, device
4905 drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
4906 expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
4907 "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
4908 parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
4909 being started.
4910 "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
4911 (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
4912 RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
4913 to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
4914 server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
4915 for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004916
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004917 "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
4918 image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
4919 byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
4920 Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
4921 one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
4922 a multiple of 4 bytes).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004923
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004924 "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
4925 U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
4926 flash memory.
wdenk4fc95692003-02-28 00:49:47 +00004927
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004928 "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
4929 U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
4930 useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
4931 as command interpreter.

Marek Vasutcf41a9b2012-03-14 21:52:45 +00004933Booting the Linux zImage:
4934-------------------------
4935
4936On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
4937using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
4938as the syntax of "bootm" command.
4939
Marek Vasut28850d02012-03-18 11:47:58 +00004940Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_INITRD_RAW allows user to supply
4941kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
4942address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
4943format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004949One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
4950run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
4951U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
stroeseb9c17c52003-04-04 15:53:41 +00004952
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004953Two simple examples are included with the sources:

4959application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004987Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
4988handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
4989Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
4990The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
4991character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
4992controlled by the following keys:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004993
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00004994 ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
4995 b - enable interrupts and start timer

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005058Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
5059(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
wdenk88e72a32003-06-19 23:04:19 +00005060
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005061Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
5062NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
5063need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
5064Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
5065attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
5066missing. This file has to be installed and patched manually:
wdenk88e72a32003-06-19 23:04:19 +00005067
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005068 # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
5069 # mkdir powerpc
5070 # ln -s powerpc machine
5071 # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
5072 # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
wdenk88e72a32003-06-19 23:04:19 +00005073
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005074Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
5075and U-Boot include files.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005076
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005077Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
5078stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
5079proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
5080tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005087The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
5088implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
5089inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
5090hardware.

5094---------------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005095
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005096The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
5097starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
5098system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
5099This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
5100is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
5101at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
5102options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
5103models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
5104MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
5105locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005106
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005107 Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005115 Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
5116 is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
5117 require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
5118 is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
5119 necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02005120 beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005121 can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
5122 operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005123
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005124 OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
5125 is another option for the system designer to use as an
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02005126 initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005127 option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
5128 board designers haven't used it for something that would
5129 cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
5130 used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005131
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02005132 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005133 with your processor/board/system design. The default value
5134 you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
Stefan Roese3e1f1b32005-08-01 16:49:12 +02005135 walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005136 than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
5137 it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
5138 that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
5139 start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
5140 you get the config right.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005145It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
5146code for the initialization procedures:
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00005147
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005148* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
5149 to write it.
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00005150
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02005151* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005152 as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
5153 zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00005154
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005155* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
5156 that.
wdenk4a5c8a72003-03-06 00:02:04 +00005157
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005158Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
5159normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
5160turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
5161simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
5162functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
5163functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
5164the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
5165place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
5166reserve for this purpose.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005167
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005168When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
5169relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by
5170GCC's implementation.

Joakim Tjernlund693c0c12010-01-19 14:41:58 +01005181 (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
5182 is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
5183 going back and forth between asm and C)

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005186
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005187 Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
5188 address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
5189 but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
5190 smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
5191 average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
5192 624 text + 127 data).

Wolfgang Denk6405a152006-03-31 18:32:53 +02005235NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
5236or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005238Memory Management:
5239------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005240
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005241U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
5242MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005243
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005244The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
5245controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
5246memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
5247physical memory banks.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005248
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005249U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
5250TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
5251booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
5252to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD03836942008-10-16 15:01:15 +02005253memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005254configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
5255Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005256
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005257Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
5258of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005259
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005260So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
5261this:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005262
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005263 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code

5272 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
5273 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data

5276 0x00FD FFFF
5277 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code
5278 ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
5279 ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
5280 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM]
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005281
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005282
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005283System Initialization:
5284----------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005285
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005286In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
Marcel Ziswilerabd8dcb2008-07-09 08:17:15 +02005287(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005288configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
5289To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
5290To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
5291initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
5292which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
5293part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
5294the caches and the SIU.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005295
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005296Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
5297preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
5298(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
5299on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
5300programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
5301simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
5302banks.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005303
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005304When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
5305different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
5306bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
53070x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
5308contiguous memory starting from 0.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005309
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005310Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
5311and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
5312Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
5313pages, and the final stack is set up.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005314
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005315Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
5316until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
5317running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
5318new address in RAM.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005444* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005445
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005446* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005447
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005448* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add this
Wolfgang Denk20bd2a62011-07-27 10:59:55 +00005449 board to the MAINTAINERS file, too.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005450
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005451* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5452 document these in the README file.

Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005454* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5455 recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
Wolfgang Denk20bd2a62011-07-27 10:59:55 +00005456 "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005457 the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5458 with some other mail clients.

Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005460 If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5461 diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5462 GNU diff.

Wolfgang Denkb240aef2008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005464 The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5465 directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5466 your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
5467 affected files).
5468
5469 We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5470 and compressed attachments must not be used.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005472* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
5473 files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
wdenk57b2d802003-06-27 21:31:46 +00005474
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005475* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
5476 submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.

wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005479Notes:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005480
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005481* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
5482 source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5483 for any of the boards.
5484
5485* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5486 containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5487 returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005488
wdenk6c59edc2004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005489* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5490 add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5491 When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5492 (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5493 disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5494 modification.

Wolfgang Denk290ae6b2008-12-30 22:56:11 +01005496* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
5497 u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
5498 reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
5499 bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
