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

| Software Configuration: |
| ======================= |
| |
| Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the |
| rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible. |
| |
| There are two classes of configuration variables: |
| |
| * Configuration _OPTIONS_: |
| These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with |
| "CONFIG_". |
| |
| * Configuration _SETTINGS_: |
| These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if |
| you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with |
| "CONFIG_SYS_". |
| |
| Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even |
| identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to |
| do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic |
| links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards |
| as an example here. |
| |
| |
| Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: |
| --------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default |
| configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config". |
| |
| Example: For a TQM823L module type: |
| |
| cd u-boot |
| make TQM823L_config |
| |
| For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well; |
| e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent |
| directory according to the instructions in cogent/README. |
| |
| |
| Configuration Options: |
| ---------------------- |
| |
| Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all |
| such information is kept in a configuration file |
| "include/configs/<board_name>.h". |
| |
| Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in |
| "include/configs/TQM823L.h". |
| |
| |
| Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux |
| kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to |
| build a config tool - later. |
| |
| |
| The following options need to be configured: |
| |
| - CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX. |
| |
| - Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS. |
| |
| - CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined) |
| Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002 |
| |
| - CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) |
| Define exactly one of |
| CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD |
| --- FIXME --- not tested yet: |
| CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P, |
| CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50 |
| |
| - Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) |
| Define exactly one of |
| CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102 |
| |
| - Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined) |
| Define one or more of |
| CONFIG_CMA302 |
| |
| - Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined) |
| Define one or more of |
| CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on |
| the LCD display every second with |
| a "rotator" |\-/|\-/ |
| |
| - Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined) |
| CONFIG_ADSTYPE |
| Possible values are: |
| CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS - original MPC8260ADS |
| CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS - MPC8266ADS |
| CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS - PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR |
| CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS - MPC8272ADS |
| |
| - Marvell Family Member |
| CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable |
| multiple fs option at one time |
| for marvell soc family |
| |
| - MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined) |
| Define exactly one of |
| CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245 |
| |
| - 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU) |
| CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if |
| get_gclk_freq() cannot work |
| e.g. if there is no 32KHz |
| reference PIT/RTC clock |
| CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK |
| or XTAL/EXTAL) |
| |
| - 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU): |
| CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN |
| CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX |
| CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT |
| See doc/README.MPC866 |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK |
| |
| Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead |
| of relying on the correctness of the configured |
| values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure |
| the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note |
| that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz |
| RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN) |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE |
| |
| Define this option if you want to enable the |
| ICache only when Code runs from RAM. |
| |
| - 85xx CPU Options: |
| CONFIG_SYS_PPC64 |
| |
| Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements |
| the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR |
| compliance, among other possible reasons. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV |
| |
| Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the |
| system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ |
| devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT |
| |
| Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device |
| tree nodes for the given platform. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB |
| |
| Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work |
| around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger |
| support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where |
| breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this |
| symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this |
| purpose. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 |
| |
| Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set, |
| then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional) |
| |
| Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR) |
| for which the A004510 workaround should be applied. |
| |
| The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision |
| of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus |
| p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls |
| whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set. |
| |
| See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about |
| this erratum. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY |
| |
| This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600 |
| according to the A004510 workaround. |
| |
| - Generic CPU options: |
| CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN |
| |
| Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those |
| values is arch specific. |
| |
| - Intel Monahans options: |
| CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO |
| |
| Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator |
| ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core |
| frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO |
| |
| Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator |
| ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and |
| 2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied |
| by this value. |
| |
| - MIPS CPU options: |
| CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET |
| |
| Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack |
| pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before |
| relocation. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE |
| |
| Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU. |
| See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h. |
| Possible values are: |
| CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA |
| CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA |
| CONF_CM_UNCACHED |
| CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT |
| CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE |
| CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW |
| CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW |
| CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG |
| |
| Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. |
| See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S. |
| |
| CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES |
| |
| Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq |
| XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to |
| be swapped if a flash programmer is used. |
| |
| - ARM options: |
| CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH |
| |
| Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not |
| clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD |
| |
| Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction |
| set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides |
| better code density. For ARM architectures that support |
| Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by |
| GCC. |
| |
| - Linux Kernel Interface: |
| CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ |
| |
| U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz |
| internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux |
| kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the |
| bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable |
| "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot |
| converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the |
| Linux kernel. |
| When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of |
| "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the |
| default environment. |
| |
| CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only] |
| |
| When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions |
| expect it to be in bytes, others in MB. |
| Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes. |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT |
| |
| New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be |
| passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware |
| concepts). |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT |
| * New libfdt-based support |
| * Adds the "fdt" command |
| * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt |
| |
| OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for |
| MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). |
| OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for |
| MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards). |
| OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency. |
| OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device |
| |
| boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC |
| addresses |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP |
| |
| Board code has addition modification that it wants to make |
| to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU |
| |
| This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot |
| param header, the default value is zero if undefined. |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP |
| |
| U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. |
| If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot |
| removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, |
| so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and |
| crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where |
| no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. |
| |
| CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory] |
| |
| This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one |
| machine type and must be used to specify the machine type |
| number as it appears in the ARM machine registry |
| (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/). |
| Only boards that have multiple machine types supported |
| in a single configuration file and the machine type is |
| runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting. |
| |
| - vxWorks boot parameters: |
| |
| bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following |
| environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname. |
| It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name |
| CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address |
| CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server |
| CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS |
| |
| Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret" |
| |
| Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride |
| the defaults discussed just above. |
| |
| - Cache Configuration: |
| CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot |
| CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot |
| CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot |
| |
| - Cache Configuration for ARM: |
| CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache |
| controller |
| CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310 |
| controller register space |
| |
| - Serial Ports: |
| CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL |
| |
| Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs. |
| |
| CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL |
| |
| Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs. |
| |
| CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK |
| |
| If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to |
| the clock speed of the UARTs. |
| |
| CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS |
| |
| If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board, |
| define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported) |
| port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h |
| |
| CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR |
| |
| Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500) |
| have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set |
| this variable to initialize the extra register. |
| |
| CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT |
| |
| On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage |
| boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this |
| variable to flush the UART at init time. |
| |
| |
| - Console Interface: |
| Depending on board, define exactly one serial port |
| (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2, |
| CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial |
| console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE |
| |
| Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial |
| port routines must be defined elsewhere |
| (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...) |
| |
| CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE |
| Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following |
| defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042) |
| VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation |
| (default big endian) |
| VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports |
| rectangle fill |
| (cf. smiLynxEM) |
| VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports |
| bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM) |
| VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns |
| (cols=pitch) |
| VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows |
| VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel |
| VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format |
| (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c) |
| VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address |
| VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct |
| (i.e. i8042_kbd_init()) |
| VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct |
| (i.e. i8042_tstc) |
| VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct |
| (i.e. i8042_getc) |
| CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR cursor drawing on/off |
| (requires blink timer |
| cf. i8042.c) |
| CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c) |
| CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME display time/date info in |
| upper right corner |
| (requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE) |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in |
| upper left corner |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of |
| linux_logo.h for logo. |
| Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO |
| CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO |
| additional board info beside |
| the logo |
| |
| When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support |
| a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control, |
| erase functions and limited graphics rendition control). |
| |
| When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is |
| default i/o. Serial console can be forced with |
| environment 'console=serial'. |
| |
| When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console |
| messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with |
| the "silent" environment variable. See |
| doc/README.silent for more information. |
| |
| - Console Baudrate: |
| CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps |
| Select one of the baudrates listed in |
| CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. |
| CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale |
| |
| - Console Rx buffer length |
| With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define |
| the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC. |
| This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible. |
| If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE |
| must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for |
| the SMC. |
| |
| - Pre-Console Buffer: |
| Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART |
| initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. |
| Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to |
| buffer any console messages prior to the console being |
| initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ |
| bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is |
| a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ |
| bytes are output before the console is initialised, the |
| earlier bytes are discarded. |
| |
| 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if |
| CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2 |
| |
| - Safe printf() functions |
| Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of |
| the printf() functions. These are defined in |
| include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and |
| so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes. |
| If this option is not given then these functions will |
| silently discard their buffer size argument - this means |
| you are not getting any overflow checking in this case. |
| |
| - Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds |
| Delay before automatically booting the default image; |
| set to -1 to disable autoboot. |
| set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort |
| (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined). |
| |
| See doc/README.autoboot for these options that |
| work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required. |
| CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME |
| CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN |
| CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED |
| CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT |
| CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR |
| CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR |
| CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2 |
| CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2 |
| CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK |
| CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY |
| |
| - Autoboot Command: |
| CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND |
| Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled; |
| define a command string that is automatically executed |
| when no character is read on the console interface |
| within "Boot Delay" after reset. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTARGS |
| This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm |
| command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the |
| environment value "bootargs". |
| |
| CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT |
| The value of these goes into the environment as |
| "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used |
| as a convenience, when switching between booting from |
| RAM and NFS. |
| |
| - Pre-Boot Commands: |
| CONFIG_PREBOOT |
| |
| When this option is #defined, the existence of the |
| environment variable "preboot" will be checked |
| immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY |
| countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp. |
| entering interactive mode. |
| |
| This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is |
| automatically generated or modified. For an example |
| see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is |
| modified when the user holds down a certain |
| combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when |
| booting the systems |
| |
| - Serial Download Echo Mode: |
| CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO |
| If defined to 1, all characters received during a |
| serial download (using the "loads" command) are |
| echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal |
| emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take |
| time on others. This setting #define's the initial |
| value of the "loads_echo" environment variable. |
| |
| - Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined) |
| CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE |
| Select one of the baudrates listed in |
| CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below. |
| |
| - Monitor Functions: |
| Monitor commands can be included or excluded |
| from the build by using the #include files |
| <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted |
| commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h> |
| and augmenting with additional #define's |
| for wanted commands. |
| |

| EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network |
| support you can write: |
| |
| #include "config_cmd_all.h" |
| #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET |
| |
| Other Commands: |
| fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT |
| |
| Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands |
| (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know |
| what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data |
| cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or |
| 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be |
| uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other |
| systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an |
| initial stack and some data. |
| |
| |
| XXX - this list needs to get updated! |
| |
| - Device tree: |
| CONFIG_OF_CONTROL |
| If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree |
| to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically |
| compiled #defines in the board file. This option is |
| experimental and only available on a few boards. The device |
| tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. |
| |
| U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can |
| be done using one of the two options below: |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_EMBED |
| If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree |
| binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the |
| board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file |
| is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through |
| the global data structure as gd->blob. |
| |
| CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE |
| If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree |
| binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific |
| code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: |
| |
| cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin |
| |
| and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called |
| u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can |
| still use the individual files if you need something more |
| exotic. |
| |
| - Watchdog: |
| CONFIG_WATCHDOG |
| If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog |
| support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC |
| specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 |
| CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR |
| register. When supported for a specific SoC is |
| available, then no further board specific code should |
| be needed to use it. |
| |
| CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG |
| When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used |
| SoC, then define this variable and provide board |
| specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. |
| |
| - U-Boot Version: |
| CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE |
| If this variable is defined, an environment variable |
| named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot |
| version as printed by the "version" command. |
| Any change to this variable will be reverted at the |
| next reset. |
| |
| - Real-Time Clock: |
| |
| When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC |
| has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the |
| following options: |
| |
| CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx |
| CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC |
| CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC |
| CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337 |
| CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on |
| RV3029 RTC. |
| |
| Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface |
| must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. |
| |
| - GPIO Support: |
| CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO |
| CONFIG_PCA953X_INFO - enable pca953x info command |
| |
| The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of |
| chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of |
| pins supported by a particular chip. |
| |
| Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface |
| must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. |
| |
| - Timestamp Support: |
| |
| When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp |
| (date and time) of an image is printed by image |
| commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is |
| automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE . |
| |
| - Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported: |
| Zero or more of the following: |
| CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table. |
| CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the |
| Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc. |
| CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc. |
| CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the |
| bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see |
| disk/part_efi.c |
| CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table. |
| |
| If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or |
| CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at |
| least one non-MTD partition type as well. |
| |
| - IDE Reset method: |
| CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several |
| board configurations files but used nowhere! |
| |
| CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will |
| be performed by calling the function |
| ide_set_reset(int reset) |
| which has to be defined in a board specific file |
| |
| - ATAPI Support: |
| CONFIG_ATAPI |
| |
| Set this to enable ATAPI support. |
| |
| - LBA48 Support |
| CONFIG_LBA48 |
| |
| Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB |
| Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA. |
| Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only' |
| support disks up to 2.1TB. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA: |
| When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses. |
| Default is 32bit. |
| |
| - SCSI Support: |
| At the moment only there is only support for the |
| SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define |
| CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and |
| CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID * |
| CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the |
| maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target |
| devices. |
| CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz) |
| |
| The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of |
| SCSI devices found during the last scan. |
| |
| - NETWORK Support (PCI): |
| CONFIG_E1000 |
| Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips. |
| |
| CONFIG_E1000_SPI |
| Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x. |
| This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one |
| of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC. |
| |
| CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC |
| Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for |
| example with the "sspi" command. |
| |
| CONFIG_CMD_E1000 |
| Management command for E1000 devices. When used on devices |
| with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot. |
| |
| CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC |
| default MAC for empty EEPROM after production. |
| |
| CONFIG_EEPRO100 |
| Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips. |

| |
| CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC |
| Support for AT91RM9200 EMAC. |
| |
| CONFIG_RMII |
| Define this to use reduced MII inteface |

| |
| CONFIG_CALXEDA_XGMAC |
| Support for the Calxeda XGMAC device |
| |
| CONFIG_LAN91C96 |
| Support for SMSC's LAN91C96 chips. |

| Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY. |
| Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY. |
| If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur |
| wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or |
| useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit |
| control registers. This behavior won't affect the |
| correctnessof 10/100 link speed update. |
| |
| CONFIG_SMC911X |
| Support for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x chips |
| |
| CONFIG_SMC911X_BASE |

| Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device |
| per system is supported at this time. |
| |
| CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS |
| Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped |
| to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at |
| 0xfed40000. |
| |
| - USB Support: |
| At the moment only the UHCI host controller is |
| supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define |
| CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it. |
| define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard |
| and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB |
| storage devices. |
| Note: |
| Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives |
| (TEAC FD-05PUB). |
| MPC5200 USB requires additional defines: |
| CONFIG_USB_CLOCK |

| May be defined to allow interrupt polling |
| instead of using asynchronous interrupts |
| |
| CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the |
| txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset. |
| |
| - USB Device: |
| Define the below if you wish to use the USB console. |
| Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the |
| command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and |
| attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print |
| it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty |
| can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to |
| appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a |
| Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device. |
| If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate |
| a Linux host by |
| # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID |
| else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment |
| variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following |
| might be defined in YourBoardName.h |
| |
| CONFIG_USB_DEVICE |
| Define this to build a UDC device |
| |
| CONFIG_USB_TTY |
| Define this to have a tty type of device available to |
| talk to the UDC device |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_HS |
| Define this to enable the high speed support for usb |
| device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine |
| int is_usbd_high_speed(void) |
| also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll |
| whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full |
| speed. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV |
| Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to |
| be set to usbtty. |
| |
| mpc8xx: |
| CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH |
| Derive USB clock from external clock "blah" |
| - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02 |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH |
| Derive USB clock from brgclk |
| - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04 |
| |
| If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to |
| define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h |
| or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define |
| CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME, |
| CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot |
| should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host. |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER |
| Define this string as the name of your company for |
| - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company" |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME |
| Define this string as the name of your product |
| - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device" |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID |
| Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB |
| Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID |
| to avoid polluting the USB namespace. |
| - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF |
| |
| CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID |
| Define this as the unique Product ID |
| for your device |
| - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF |
| |
| - ULPI Layer Support: |
| The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via |
| the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY |
| via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and |
| the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based |
| viewport is supported. |
| To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and |
| CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. |
| If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the |
| standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to |
| the appropriate value in Hz. |
| |
| - MMC Support: |
| The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To |
| enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be |
| accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device |
| to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is |
| enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with |
| the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT. |
| |
| CONFIG_SH_MMCIF |
| Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller |
| |
| CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR |
| Define the base address of MMCIF registers |
| |
| CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK |
| Define the clock frequency for MMCIF |
| |
| - Journaling Flash filesystem support: |
| CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE, |
| CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV |
| Define these for a default partition on a NAND device |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR, |
| CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS |
| Define these for a default partition on a NOR device |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART |
| Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a |
| function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num) |
| |
| If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1 |
| to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you |
| have not defined a custom partition |
| |
| - FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support: |
| CONFIG_FAT_WRITE |
| |
| Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a |
| file in FAT formatted partition. |
| |
| This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the |
| user to write files to FAT. |
| |
| CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support |
| CONFIG_CMD_CBFS |
| |
| Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot |
| filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls |
| and cbfsload. |
| |
| - Keyboard Support: |
| CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD |
| |
| Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard |
| support |
| |
| CONFIG_I8042_KBD |
| Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and |
| GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support. |
| Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc |
| for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking. |
| |
| - Video support: |
| CONFIG_VIDEO |
| |
| Define this to enable video support (for output to |
| video). |
| |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000 |
| |
| Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip |
| |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM |
| Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The |
| video output is selected via environment 'videoout' |
| (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is |
| assumed. |
| |
| For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is |
| selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways |
| are possible: |
| - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers. |
| Following standard modes are supported (* is default): |
| |
| Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024 |
| -------------+--------------------------------------------- |
| 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307 |
| 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319 |
| 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A |
| 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B |
| -------------+--------------------------------------------- |
| (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;) |
| |
| - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed |
| from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c) |
| |
| |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806 |
| Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp |
| and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP |
| or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP |
| |
| CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB |
| Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for |
| SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU |
| support, and should also define these other macros: |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR |
| CONFIG_VIDEO |
| CONFIG_CMD_BMP |
| CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR |
| CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO |
| |
| The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment |
| variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during |
| boot. See the documentation file README.video for a |
| description of this variable. |
| |
| CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA |
| |
| Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you |
| are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer |
| driver. |
| |
| |
| - Keyboard Support: |
| CONFIG_KEYBOARD |
| |
| Define this to enable a custom keyboard support. |
| This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be |
| defined in your board-specific files. |
| The only board using this so far is RBC823. |
| |
| - LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD |
| |
| Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD |
| display); also select one of the supported displays |
| by defining one of these: |
| |
| CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD: |
| |
| HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320. |
| |
| CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33: |
| |
| NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20 |
| |
| NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480. |
| Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54 |
| |
| NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480. |
| Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_SHARP_16x9 |
| |
| Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan. |
| It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is. |
| |
| CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341 |
| |
| Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480. |
| Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_HLD1045 |
| |
| HLD1045 display, 640x480. |
| Active, color, single scan. |
| |
| CONFIG_OPTREX_BW |
| |
| Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5 |
| or |
| Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T |
| or |
| Hitachi SP14Q002 |
| |
| 320x240. Black & white. |
| |
| Normally display is black on white background; define |
| CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted. |
| |
| CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8 |
| |
| Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD. |
| |
| |
| - Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN |
| |
| If this option is set, the environment is checked for |
| a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display |
| of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD |
| is suppressed and the BMP image at the address |
| specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The |
| console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This |
| allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is |
| loaded very quickly after power-on. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN |
| |
| If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned |
| on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the |
| position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as |
| number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it |
| is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also |
| specify 'm' for centering the image. |
| |
| Example: |
| setenv splashpos m,m |
| => image at center of screen |
| |
| setenv splashpos 30,20 |
| => image at x = 30 and y = 20 |
| |
| setenv splashpos -10,m |
| => vertically centered image |
| at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 |
| |
| - Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP |
| |
| If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP |
| images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the |
| splashscreen support or the bmp command. |
| |
| - Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8 |
| |
| If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images |
| can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the |
| bmp command. |
| |
| - Do compresssing for memory range: |
| CONFIG_CMD_ZIP |
| |
| If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method |
| to compress the specified memory at its best effort. |
| |
| - Compression support: |
| CONFIG_BZIP2 |
| |
| If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed |
| images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip |
| compressed images are supported. |
| |
| NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so |
| the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should |
| be at least 4MB. |
| |
| CONFIG_LZMA |
| |
| If this option is set, support for lzma compressed |
| images is included. |
| |
| Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it |
| requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the |
| formula: |
| |
| (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) |
| |
| Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits |
| and Literal pos bits. |
| |
| This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, |
| for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a |
| total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is |
| a very small buffer. |
| |
| Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and |
| then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring |
| the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value). |
| |
| - MII/PHY support: |
| CONFIG_PHY_ADDR |
| |
| The address of PHY on MII bus. |
| |
| CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx) |
| |
| The clock frequency of the MII bus |
| |
| CONFIG_PHY_GIGE |
| |
| If this option is set, support for speed/duplex |
| detection of gigabit PHY is included. |
| |
| CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY |
| |
| Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after |
| reset before any MII register access is possible. |
| For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay |
| required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A) |
| |
| CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx) |
| |
| Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after |
| command issued before MII status register can be read |
| |
| - Ethernet address: |
| CONFIG_ETHADDR |
| CONFIG_ETH1ADDR |
| CONFIG_ETH2ADDR |
| CONFIG_ETH3ADDR |
| CONFIG_ETH4ADDR |
| CONFIG_ETH5ADDR |
| |
| Define a default value for Ethernet address to use |
| for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this |
| is not determined automatically. |
| |
| - IP address: |
| CONFIG_IPADDR |
| |
| Define a default value for the IP address to use for |
| the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not |
| determined through e.g. bootp. |
| (Environment variable "ipaddr") |
| |
| - Server IP address: |
| CONFIG_SERVERIP |
| |
| Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP |
| server to contact when using the "tftboot" command. |
| (Environment variable "serverip") |
| |
| CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR |
| |
| Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr' |
| for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option) |
| |
| - Gateway IP address: |
| CONFIG_GATEWAYIP |
| |
| Defines a default value for the IP address of the |
| default router where packets to other networks are |
| sent to. |
| (Environment variable "gatewayip") |
| |
| - Subnet mask: |
| CONFIG_NETMASK |
| |
| Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or |
| routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP |
| address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be |
| forwarded through a router. |
| (Environment variable "netmask") |
| |
| - Multicast TFTP Mode: |
| CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP |
| |
| Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per |
| rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets |
| tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet |
| driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a |
| multicast group. |
| |
| - BOOTP Recovery Mode: |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY |
| |
| If you have many targets in a network that try to |
| boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all |
| systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same |
| moment (which would happen for instance at recovery |
| from a power failure, when all systems will try to |
| boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be |
| inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The |
| following delays are inserted then: |
| |
| 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec |
| 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec |
| 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec |
| 4th and following |
| BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec |
| |
| - DHCP Advanced Options: |
| You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols: |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip |
| environment variable, not the BOOTP server. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found |
| after the configured retry count, the call will fail |
| instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over |
| to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server |
| is not available. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS |
| serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more |
| than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. |
| If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS |
| serverip will be stored in the additional environment |
| variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always |
| stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS |
| is defined. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable |
| to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they |
| need the hostname of the DHCP requester. |
| If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content |
| of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as |
| option 12 to the DHCP server. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY |
| |
| A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between |
| receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request". |
| This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't |
| respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an |
| AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed |
| to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003 |
| DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at |
| least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope |
| that one of the retries will be successful but note that |
| the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than |
| this delay. |
| |
| - Link-local IP address negotiation: |
| Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network |
| for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. |
| This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed |
| to exist in all environments that the device must operate. |
| |
| See doc/README.link-local for more information. |
| |
| - CDP Options: |
| CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID |
| |
| The device id used in CDP trigger frames. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX |
| |
| A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address |
| of the device. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID |
| |
| A printf format string which contains the ascii name of |
| the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets |
| eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES |
| |
| A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities; |
| 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_VERSION |
| |
| An ascii string containing the version of the software. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM |
| |
| An ascii string containing the name of the platform. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER |
| |
| A 32bit integer sent on the trigger. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION |
| |
| A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the |
| device in .1 of milliwatts. |
| |
| CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE |
| |
| A byte containing the id of the VLAN. |
| |
| - Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED |
| |
| Several configurations allow to display the current |
| status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink |
| fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as |
| soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and |
| start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running |
| (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux |
| kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this |
| feature in U-Boot. |
| |
| - CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER |
| |
| Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support |
| on those systems that support this (optional) |
| feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. |
| |
| - I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C |
| |
| These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of |
| (but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will |
| include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected CPU. |
| |
| This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot |
| command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in |
| CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime |
| clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the |
| command line interface. |
| |
| CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. |
| |
| CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka |
| bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware |
| support for I2C. |
| |
| There are several other quantities that must also be |
| defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C. |
| |
| In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED |
| to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus |
| to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie |
| the CPU's i2c node address). |
| |
| Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx |
| (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node |
| and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See, |
| eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX |
| |
| When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer |
| chips might think that the current transfer is still |
| in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start |
| commands until the slave device responds. |
| |
| That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. |
| |
| If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C) |
| then the following macros need to be defined (examples are |
| from include/configs/lwmon.h): |
| |
| I2C_INIT |
| |
| (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C |
| controller or configure ports. |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL) |
| |
| I2C_PORT |
| |
| (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code |
| assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values |
| are 0..3 for ports A..D. |
| |
| I2C_ACTIVE |
| |
| The code necessary to make the I2C data line active |
| (driven). If the data line is open collector, this |
| define can be null. |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA) |
| |
| I2C_TRISTATE |
| |
| The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated |
| (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this |
| define can be null. |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA) |
| |
| I2C_READ |
| |
| Code that returns TRUE if the I2C data line is high, |
| FALSE if it is low. |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0) |
| |
| I2C_SDA(bit) |
| |
| If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C data line high. If it |
| is FALSE, it clears it (low). |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \ |
| if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \ |
| else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA |
| |
| I2C_SCL(bit) |
| |
| If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C clock line high. If it |
| is FALSE, it clears it (low). |
| |
| eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \ |
| if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \ |
| else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL |
| |
| I2C_DELAY |
| |
| This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this |
| controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus |
| is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something |
| like: |
| |
| #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2) |
| |
| CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA |
| |
| If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h), |
| then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be |
| used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will |
| have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate. |
| |
| You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to |
| the generic GPIO functions. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD |
| |
| When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer |
| chips might think that the current transfer is still |
| in progress. On some boards it is possible to access |
| the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the |
| processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin |
| connected to the bus. If this option is defined a |
| custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c |
| is run early in the boot sequence. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT |
| |
| An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is |
| defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in |
| boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() |
| is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus |
| using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c |
| controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of |
| i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus |
| controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). |
| |
| CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) |
| |
| This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags |
| in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment |
| variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast) |
| |
| CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
| |
| This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which |
| must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is |
| active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command. |
| Note that bus numbering is zero-based. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES |
| |
| This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped |
| when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
| is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify |
| a 1D array of device addresses |
| |
| e.g. |
| #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68} |
| |
| will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus |
| |
| #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}} |
| |
| will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1 |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM |
| |
| If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD. |
| If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM |
| |
| If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC. |
| If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM |
| |
| If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT. |
| If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR: |
| |
| If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device. |
| If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for |
| specified DTT device. |
| |
| CONFIG_FSL_I2C |
| |
| Define this option if you want to use Freescale's I2C driver in |
| drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c. |
| |
| CONFIG_I2C_MUX |
| |
| Define this option if you have I2C devices reached over 1 .. n |
| I2C Muxes like the pca9544a. This option addes a new I2C |
| Command "i2c bus [muxtype:muxaddr:muxchannel]" which adds a |
| new I2C Bus to the existing I2C Busses. If you select the |
| new Bus with "i2c dev", u-bbot sends first the commandos for |
| the muxes to activate this new "bus". |
| |
| CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS must be also defined, to use this |
| feature! |
| |
| Example: |
| Adding a new I2C Bus reached over 2 pca9544a muxes |
| The First mux with address 70 and channel 6 |
| The Second mux with address 71 and channel 4 |
| |
| => i2c bus pca9544a:70:6:pca9544a:71:4 |
| |
| Use the "i2c bus" command without parameter, to get a list |
| of I2C Busses with muxes: |
| |
| => i2c bus |
| Busses reached over muxes: |
| Bus ID: 2 |
| reached over Mux(es): |
| pca9544a@70 ch: 4 |
| Bus ID: 3 |
| reached over Mux(es): |
| pca9544a@70 ch: 6 |
| pca9544a@71 ch: 4 |
| => |
| |
| If you now switch to the new I2C Bus 3 with "i2c dev 3" |
| u-boot first sends the command to the mux@70 to enable |
| channel 6, and then the command to the mux@71 to enable |
| the channel 4. |
| |
| After that, you can use the "normal" i2c commands as |
| usual to communicate with your I2C devices behind |
| the 2 muxes. |
| |
| This option is actually implemented for the bitbanging |
| algorithm in common/soft_i2c.c and for the Hardware I2C |
| Bus on the MPC8260. But it should be not so difficult |
| to add this option to other architectures. |
| |
| CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START |
| |
| defining this will force the i2c_read() function in |
| the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start |
| between writing the address pointer and reading the |
| data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour |
| of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C |
| devices can use either method, but some require one or |
| the other. |
| |
| - SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI |
| |
| Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with |
| SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and |
| D/As on the SACSng board) |
| |
| CONFIG_SH_SPI |
| |
| Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently |
| only SH7757 is supported. |
| |
| CONFIG_SPI_X |
| |
| Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing. |
| (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X) |
| |
| CONFIG_SOFT_SPI |
| |
| Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than |
| using hardware support. This is a general purpose |
| driver that only requires three general I/O port pins |
| (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is |
| defined, the board configuration must define several |
| SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For |
| an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h. |
| |
| CONFIG_HARD_SPI |
| |
| Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads |
| and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration |
| must define a list of chip-select function pointers. |
| Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an |
| example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h. |
| |
| CONFIG_MXC_SPI |
| |
| Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC |
| SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported. |
| |
| - FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA |
| |
| Enables FPGA subsystem. |
| |
| CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor> |
| |
| Enables support for specific chip vendors. |
| (ALTERA, XILINX) |
| |
| CONFIG_FPGA_<family> |
| |
| Enables support for FPGA family. |
| (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX) |
| |
| CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT |
| |
| Specify the number of FPGA devices to support. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK |
| |
| Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY |
| |
| Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy |
| status by the configuration function. This option |
| will require a board or device specific function to |
| be written. |
| |
| CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY |
| |
| If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA |
| configuration driver. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC |
| Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR |
| |
| Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile |
| loading. For example, abort during Virtex II |
| configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which |
| indicated a CRC error). |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT |
| |
| Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert |
| after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II |
| FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500 |
| ms. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY |
| |
| Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during |
| Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG |
| |
| Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is |
| 200 ms. |
| |
| - Configuration Management: |
| CONFIG_IDENT_STRING |
| |
| If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot |
| version information (U_BOOT_VERSION) |
| |
| - Vendor Parameter Protection: |
| |
| U-Boot considers the values of the environment |
| variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and |
| "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that |
| are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and |
| protects these variables from casual modification by |
| the user. Once set, these variables are read-only, |
| and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can |
| change this behaviour: |
| |
| If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config |
| file, the write protection for vendor parameters is |
| completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete |
| these parameters. |
| |
| Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR |
| _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default |
| Ethernet address is installed in the environment, |
| which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The |
| serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains |
| read-only.] |
| |
| - Protected RAM: |
| CONFIG_PRAM |
| |
| Define this variable to enable the reservation of |
| "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten |
| by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of |
| kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite |
| this default value by defining an environment |
| variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to |
| reserve. Note that the board info structure will |
| still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is |
| reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will |
| automatically be defined to hold the amount of |
| remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot |
| argument to Linux, for instance like that: |
| |
| setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem} |
| saveenv |
| |
| This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory, |
| either, which results in a memory region that will |
| not be affected by reboots. |
| |
| *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic |
| detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that |
| this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the |
| following board configurations are known to be |
| "pRAM-clean": |
| |
| IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL, |
| HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, |
| FLAGADM, TQM8260 |
| |
| - Access to physical memory region (> 4GB) |
| Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not |
| normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures |
| support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit |
| machines using physical address extension or similar. |
| Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which |
| currently only supports clearing the memory. |
| |
| - Error Recovery: |
| CONFIG_PANIC_HANG |
| |
| Define this variable to stop the system in case of a |
| fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually. |
| This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded |
| system where you want the system to reboot |
| automatically as fast as possible, but it may be |
| useful during development since you can try to debug |
| the conditions that lead to the situation. |
| |
| CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT |
| |
| This variable defines the number of retries for |
| network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP |
| before giving up the operation. If not defined, a |
| default value of 5 is used. |
| |
| CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT |
| |
| Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds. |
| |
| CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT |
| |
| Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol. |
| If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command, |
| try longer timeout such as |
| #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL |
| |
| - Command Interpreter: |
| CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE |
| |
| Enable auto completion of commands using TAB. |
| |
| Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet |
| for the "hush" shell. |
| |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER |
| |
| Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from |
| Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling |
| powerful command line syntax like |
| if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||' |
| constructs ("shell scripts"). |
| |
| If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour |
| with a somewhat smaller memory footprint. |
| |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 |
| |
| This defines the secondary prompt string, which is |
| printed when the command interpreter needs more input |
| to complete a command. Usually "> ". |
| |
| Note: |
| |
| In the current implementation, the local variables |
| space and global environment variables space are |
| separated. Local variables are those you define by |
| simply typing `name=value'. To access a local |
| variable later on, you have write `$name' or |
| `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable |
| directly type `$name' at the command prompt. |
| |
| Global environment variables are those you use |
| setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored |
| in such a variable, you need to use the run command, |
| and you must not use the '$' sign to access them. |
| |
| To store commands and special characters in a |
| variable, please use double quotation marks |
| surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead |
| of the backslashes before semicolons and special |
| symbols. |
| |
| - Commandline Editing and History: |
| CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING |
| |
| Enable editing and History functions for interactive |
| commandline input operations |
| |
| - Default Environment: |
| CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS |
| |
| Define this to contain any number of null terminated |
| strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of |
| the default environment compiled into the boot image. |
| |
| For example, place something like this in your |
| board's config file: |
| |
| #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \ |
| "myvar1=value1\0" \ |
| "myvar2=value2\0" |
| |
| Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the |
| internal format how the environment is stored by the |
| U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported |
| interface! Although it is unlikely that this format |
| will change soon, there is no guarantee either. |
| You better know what you are doing here. |
| |
| Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is |
| discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset |
| the environment like the "source" command or the |
| boot command first. |
| |
| CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG |
| |
| Define this in order to add variables describing the |
| U-Boot build configuration to the default environment. |
| These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc. |
| |
| Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined: |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CPU |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD |
| - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SOC |
| |
| CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG |
| |
| Define this in order to add variables describing certain |
| run-time determined information about the hardware to the |
| environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev. |
| |
| - DataFlash Support: |
| CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH |
| |
| Defining this option enables DataFlash features and |
| allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard |
| commands cp, md... |
| |
| - Serial Flash support |
| CONFIG_CMD_SF |
| |
| Defining this option enables SPI flash commands |
| 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'. |
| |
| Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial |
| flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update |
| commands. |
| |
| The following defaults may be provided by the platform |
| to handle the common case when only a single serial |
| flash is present on the system. |
| |
| CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier |
| CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select |
| CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h) |
| CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz |
| |
| - SystemACE Support: |
| CONFIG_SYSTEMACE |
| |
| Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE |
| chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address |
| of the chip must also be defined in the |
| CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example: |
| |
| #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000 |
| |
| When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type |
| becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls. |
| |
| - TFTP Fixed UDP Port: |
| CONFIG_TFTP_PORT |
| |
| If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp |
| is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value. |
| If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port |
| number generator is used. |
| |
| Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply |
| the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't |
| defined, the normal port 69 is used. |
| |
| The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to |
| blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured |
| target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of |
| "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing |
| the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally. |
| A better solution is to properly configure the firewall, |
| but sometimes that is not allowed. |
| |
| - Show boot progress: |
| CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS |
| |
| Defining this option allows to add some board- |
| specific code (calling a user-provided function |
| "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show |
| the system's boot progress on some display (for |
| example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment, |
| the following checkpoints are implemented: |
| |
| - Detailed boot stage timing |
| CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE |
| Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage |
| of the boot process. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT |
| This is the number of available user bootstage records. |
| Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...) |
| a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed |
| the limit, recording will stop. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT |
| Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this: |
| |
| Timer summary in microseconds: |
| Mark Elapsed Stage |
| 0 0 reset |
| 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start |
| 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9 |
| 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done |
| 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start |
| 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop |
| 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start |
| 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel |
| |
| CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE |
| Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report |
| and un/stashing of bootstage data. |
| |
| CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT |
| Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage' |
| node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child |
| has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the |
| mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the |
| accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds. |
| For example: |
| |
| bootstage { |
| 154 { |
| name = "board_init_f"; |
| mark = <3575678>; |
| }; |
| 170 { |
| name = "lcd"; |
| accum = <33482>; |
| }; |
| }; |
| |
| Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree. |

| grabs the memory for frame buffer by panel's size). |
| |
| Please see board_init_f function. |

| |
| Modem Support: |
| -------------- |
| |
| [so far only for SMDK2400 boards] |
| |
| - Modem support enable: |
| CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT |
| |
| - RTS/CTS Flow control enable: |
| CONFIG_HWFLOW |
| |
| - Modem debug support: |
| CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG |
| |
| Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg()) |
| for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000. |
| |
| - Interrupt support (PPC): |
| |
| There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt() |
| for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu() |
| for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu() |
| should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If |
| CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt |
| (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero. |
| timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU |
| specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led |
| / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from |
| general timer_interrupt(). |
| |
| - General: |
| |
| In the target system modem support is enabled when a |
| specific key (key combination) is pressed during |
| power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally |
| (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from |
| board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy |
| function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem |
| initialization. |
| |
| If there are no modem init strings in the |
| environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the |
| previous output (banner, info printfs) will be |
| suppressed, though. |
| |
| See also: doc/README.Modem |
| |
| Board initialization settings: |
| ------------------------------ |
| |
| During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions |
| to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup |
| before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the |
| following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is |
| architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c |
| typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). |
| |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() |
| - CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() |
| |
| Configuration Settings: |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included; |
| undefine this when you're short of memory. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default |
| width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to |
| prompt for user input. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to |
| the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is |
| booted |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE: |
| List of legal baudrate settings for this board. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET |
| Suppress display of console information at boot. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV |
| If the board specific function |
| extern int overwrite_console (void); |
| returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the |
| serial port, else the settings in the environment are used. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE |
| Enable the call to overwrite_console(). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE |
| Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END: |
| Begin and End addresses of the area used by the |
| simple memory test. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST: |
| Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH: |
| Scratch address used by the alternate memory test |
| You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only): |
| If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, |
| this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top |
| (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By |
| fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed |
| the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either. |
| This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux |
| board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that |
| recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup |
| will have to get fixed in Linux additionally. |
| |
| This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx |
| CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't |
| be touched. |
| |
| WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of |
| the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case, |
| then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a |
| non page size aligned address and this could cause major |
| problems. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_TFTP_LOADADDR: |
| Default load address for network file downloads |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE: |
| Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE: |
| Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE: |
| Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a |
| Cogent motherboard) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE: |
| Physical start address of Flash memory. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE: |
| Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by |
| make config files to be same as the text base address |
| (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as |
| CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN: |
| Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to |
| determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is |
| embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate |
| flash sector. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN: |
| Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN: |
| Normally compressed uImages are limited to an |
| uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough, |
| you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file |
| to adjust this setting to your needs. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ: |
| Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of |
| the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by |
| the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if |
| used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low" |
| enviroment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case |
| all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low" |
| and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment |
| variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of |
| CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined, |
| then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH: |
| Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the |
| initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand |
| is enabled. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE: |
| Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between |
| "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD: |
| Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in |
| space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS: |
| Max number of Flash memory banks |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT: |
| Max number of sectors on a Flash chip |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT: |
| Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT: |
| Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT |
| Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT |
| Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION |
| If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used |
| instead of U-Boot software protection. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP: |
| |
| Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory; |
| without this option such a download has to be |
| performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2) |
| copy from RAM to flash. |
| |
| The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since |
| you can check if the download worked before you erase |
| the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is |
| too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the |
| downloaded image) this option may be very useful. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI: |
| Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the |
| common flash structure for storing flash geometry. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER |
| This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver |
| in the drivers directory |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD |
| This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver |
| in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash |
| to the MTD layer. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE |
| Use buffered writes to flash. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N |
| s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered |
| write commands. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST |
| If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't |
| print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This |
| is useful, if some of the configured banks are only |
| optionally available. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS |
| If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown |
| digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80 |
| column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER: |
| Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some |
| Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value |
| to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all |
| buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface |
| on high Ethernet traffic. |
| Defaults to 4 if not defined. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES |
| |
| Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used |
| internally to store the environment settings. The default |
| setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most |
| cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see |
| lib/hashtable.c for details. |
| |
| The following definitions that deal with the placement and management |
| of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the |
| following configurations: |
| |
| - CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC: |
| |
| Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils |
| may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH: |
| |
| Define this if the environment is in flash memory. |
| |
| a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is |
| "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This |
| happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot |
| sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller |
| sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a |
| layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In |
| such a case you would place the environment in one of the |
| 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With |
| "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the |
| environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap |
| between U-Boot and the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| |
| Offset of environment data (variable area) to the |
| beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot |
| type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset |
| for this sector is given here. |
| |
| CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
| |
| This is just another way to specify the start address of |
| the flash sector containing the environment (instead of |
| CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET). |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: |
| |
| Size of the sector containing the environment. |
| |
| |
| b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. |
| In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for |
| the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH |
| and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part |
| of this flash sector for the environment. This saves |
| memory for the RAM copy of the environment. |
| |
| It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this |
| when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, |
| since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used |
| for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is |
| STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view: |
| updating the environment in flash makes it always |
| necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes |
| wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in |
| RAM, your target system will be dead. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND |
| CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND |
| |
| These settings describe a second storage area used to hold |
| a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is |
| a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during |
| a "saveenv" operation. |
| |
| BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the |
| source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds* |
| accordingly! |
| |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM: |
| |
| Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device |
| (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the |
| environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you |
| want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory |
| can just be read and written to, without any special |
| provision. |
| |
| BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early |
| in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the |
| console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or |
| U-Boot will hang. |
| |
| Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the |
| environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to |
| keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv" |
| to save the current settings. |
| |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM: |
| |
| Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access |
| device and a driver for it. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines specify the offset and size of the |
| environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR: |
| If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device. |
| The default address is zero. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS: |
| If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a |
| single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example |
| would require six bits. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS: |
| If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between |
| page writes. The default is zero milliseconds. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN: |
| The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note |
| that this is NOT the chip address length! |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW: |
| EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones |
| like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of |
| address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit |
| slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256 |
| byte chips. |
| |
| Note that we consider the length of the address field to |
| still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden |
| in the chip address. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE: |
| The size in bytes of the EEPROM device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C |
| define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your |
| EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus. |
| |
| - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS |
| if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over |
| I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this |
| EEPROM. For example: |
| |
| #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS "pca9547:70:d\0" |
| |
| EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over |
| a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH: |
| |
| Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you |
| want to use for the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These three #defines specify the offset and size of the |
| environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed |
| at the specified address. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE: |
| |
| Define this if you have a remote memory space which you |
| want to use for the local device's environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines specify the address and size of the |
| environment area within the remote memory space. The |
| local device can get the environment from remote memory |
| space by SRIO or PCIE links. |
| |
| BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use |
| "saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the |
| environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link, |
| but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND: |
| |
| Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use |
| for the environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
| - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
| |
| These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment |
| area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be |
| aligned to an erase block boundary. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): |
| |
| This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE |
| size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so |
| that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure |
| during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be |
| aligned to an erase block boundary. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional): |
| |
| Specifies the length of the region in which the environment |
| can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's |
| block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than |
| are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within |
| the range to be avoided. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional): |
| |
| Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the |
| environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The |
| "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset. |
| Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when |
| using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB. |
| |
| - CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST |
| |
| Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the |
| environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to |
| CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET |
| |
| Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The |
| area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment |
| is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte |
| scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization |
| calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems |
| to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the |
| start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer. |
| |
| Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor |
| has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been |
| created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f() |
| until then to read environment variables. |
| |
| The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor |
| is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working |
| with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is |
| necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the |
| "baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't |
| have any device yet where we could complain.] |
| |
| Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if |
| the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you |
| use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN: |
| Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED. |
| |
| Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR |
| also needs to be defined. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR: |
| MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state. |
| |
| - CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS: |
| Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init |
| and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at |
| drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving |
| space for already greatly restricted images, including but not |
| limited to NAND_SPL configurations. |
| |
| Low Level (hardware related) configuration options: |
| --------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE: |
| Cache Line Size of the CPU. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR: |
| Default address of the IMMR after system reset. |
| |
| Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU, |
| and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of |
| the IMMR register after a reset. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT: |
| Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale |
| PowerPC SOCs. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR: |
| Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically |
| the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value, |
| for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS: |
| Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new |
| physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should |
| be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the |
| same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR |
| is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended |
| that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros: |
| |
| #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH |
| * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW) |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH: |
| Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically |
| either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is |
| used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or |
| integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW: |
| Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is |
| used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or |
| integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE: |
| If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be |
| forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated. |
| |
| - Floppy Disk Support: |
| CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER |
| |
| the default drive number (default value 0) |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE |
| |
| defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers |
| (default value 1) |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET |
| |
| defines the offset of register from address. It |
| depends on which part of the data bus is connected to |
| the FDC chipset. (default value 0) |
| |
| If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and |
| CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their |
| default value. |
| |
| if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function |
| fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC |
| setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board |
| source code. It is used to make hardware dependant |
| initializations. |
| |
| - CONFIG_IDE_AHB: |
| Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI |
| interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface. |
| When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to |
| IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional |
| registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller |
| is requierd. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory. |
| DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're |
| doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only] |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR: |
| |
| Start address of memory area that can be used for |
| initial data and stack; please note that this must be |
| writable memory that is working WITHOUT special |
| initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which |
| will become available only after programming the |
| memory controller and running certain initialization |
| sequences. |
| |
| U-Boot uses the following memory types: |
| - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU) |
| - MPC824X: data cache |
| - PPC4xx: data cache |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET: |
| |
| Offset of the initial data structure in the memory |
| area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually |
| CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial |
| data is located at the end of the available space |
| (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - |
| CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just |
| below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + |
| CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward. |
| |
| Note: |
| On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data |
| cache for initial memory) the address chosen for |
| CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must |
| point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between |
| the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space. |

| doc/README.MBX before setting this variable! |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_CPM_POST_WORD_ADDR: (MPC8xx, MPC8260 only) |
| Offset of the bootmode word in DPRAM used by post |
| (Power On Self Tests). This definition overrides |
| #define'd default value in commproc.h resp. |
| cpm_8260.h. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_SLV_MEM_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_PICMR0_MASK_ATTRIB, |
| CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR0_LOCAL, CONFIG_SYS_PCIMSK0_MASK, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR1_LOCAL, |

| Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not |
| required. |
| |
| - CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY |
| Only scan through and get the devices on the busses. |
| Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or |
| something has already done it, and we don't need to do it |
| a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted |
| by coreboot or similar. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SRIO: |
| Chip has SRIO or not |
| |
| - CONFIG_SRIO1: |
| Board has SRIO 1 port available |

| Defined to tell the NDFC that the NAND chip is using a |
| 16 bit bus. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG |
| Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined |
| a default value will be used. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM |
| Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common |
| with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs |
| |
| SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS |
| I2C address of the SPD EEPROM |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM |
| If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first |
| one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve |
| to something your driver can deal with. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING |
| Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with |
| soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing |
| parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into |
| header files or board specific files. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE |
| Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0 |
| Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should |
| be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3. |
| |
| - CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12] |
| Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY |
| Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds |
| to the given FEC; i. e. |
| #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4 |
| means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1 |
| |
| When set to -1, means to probe for first available. |
| |
| - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR |
| The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only). |
| (so program the FEC to ignore it). |
| |
| - CONFIG_RMII |
| Enable RMII mode for all FECs. |
| Note that this is a global option, we can't |
| have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode. |
| |
| - CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY |
| Add a verify option to the crc32 command. |
| The syntax is: |
| |
| => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32> |
| |
| Where address/count indicate a memory area |
| and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the |
| area should have. |
| |
| - CONFIG_LOOPW |
| Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if |
| the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). |
| |
| - CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC |
| Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic |
| "md/mw" commands. |
| Examples: |
| |
| => mdc.b 10 4 500 |
| This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms. |
| |
| => mwc.l 100 12345678 10 |
| This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms. |
| |
| This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated |
| globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM). |
| |
| - CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT |
| [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain |
| low level initializations (like setting up the memory |
| controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not |
| relocate itself into RAM. |
| |
| Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only |
| exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some |
| other boot loader or by a debugger which performs |
| these initializations itself. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SPL_BUILD |
| Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader |
| that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when |
| compiling a NAND SPL. |
| |
| - CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY |
| CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET |
| If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will |
| be used if available. These functions may be faster under some |
| conditions but may increase the binary size. |
| |
| - CONFIG_X86_NO_RESET_VECTOR |
| If defined, the x86 reset vector code is excluded. You will need |
| to do this when U-Boot is running from Coreboot. |
| |
| - CONFIG_X86_NO_REAL_MODE |
| If defined, x86 real mode code is omitted. This assumes a |
| 32-bit environment where such code is not needed. You will |
| need to do this when U-Boot is running from Coreboot. |
| |
| |
| Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: |
| ----------------------------------- |
| |
| The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the |
| loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. |
| This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros |
| are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address |
| within that device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR |
| The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The |
| meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro |
| is also specified. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH |
| The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format |
| has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it |
| might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some |
| local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as |
| normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the |
| virtual address in NOR flash. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. |
| CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC |
| device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI |
| device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. |
| |
| - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE |
| Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master) |
| memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which |
| can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound |
| window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in |
| master's memory space. |
| |
| Building the Software: |
| ====================== |
| |
| Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments |
| and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support |
| all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all |
| (potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we |
| recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK) |
| which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot. |
| |
| If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you |
| have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, |
| you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. |
| Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are |
| necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter: |
| |
| $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- |
| $ export CROSS_COMPILE |
| |
| Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in |
| the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain |
| (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW |
| toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: |
| |
| $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools |
| |
| Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can |
| be executed on computers running Windows. |
| |
| U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the |
| sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This |
| is done by typing: |
| |
| make NAME_config |
| |
| where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu- |
| rations; see boards.cfg for supported names. |
| |
| Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if |
| additional information is available from the board vendor; for |
| instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard) |
| or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features" |
| when choosing the configuration, i. e. |
| |
| make TQM823L_config |
| - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support |
| |
| make TQM823L_LCD_config |
| - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD |
| |
| etc. |
| |
| |
| Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot |
| images ready for download to / installation on your system: |
| |
| - "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image |
| - "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format |
| - "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format |
| |
| By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved |
| in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change |
| this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory: |
| |
| 1. Add O= to the make command line invocations: |
| |
| make O=/tmp/build distclean |
| make O=/tmp/build NAME_config |
| make O=/tmp/build all |
| |
| 2. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location: |
| |
| export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build |
| make distclean |
| make NAME_config |
| make all |
| |
| Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment |
| variable. |
| |
| |
| Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so |
| for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of |
| native "make". |
| |
| |
| If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need |
| to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these |
| steps: |
| |
| 1. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel |
| "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples. |
| Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order. |
| 2. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any |
| files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least |
| the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds". |
| 3. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for |
| your board |
| 3. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new |
| directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. |
| 4. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name. |
| 5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file |
| to be installed on your target system. |
| 6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. |
| [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] |
| |
| |
| Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: |
| ============================================================== |
| |
| If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board |
| or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to |
| provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes |
| the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest |
| official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources. |
| |
| But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- |
| cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of |
| the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, |
| just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot |
| for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can |
| select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE' |
| environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools |
| you can type |
| |
| CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL |
| |
| or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type |
| |
| CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL |
| |
| When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build |
| U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by |
| setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target |
| built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and |
| <target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default |
| location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment |
| variable. For example: |
| |
| export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build |
| export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log |
| CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL |
| |
| With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build, |
| log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean |
| during the whole build process. |

| |
| |
| Environment Variables: |
| ====================== |
| |
| U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which |
| can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. |
| |
| Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using |
| "printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv" |
| without a value can be used to delete a variable from the |
| environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are |
| working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the |
| environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided. |
| |
| Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables. |
| |
| List of environment variables (most likely not complete): |
| |
| baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE |
| |
| bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY |
| |
| bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND |
| |
| bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image |
| |
| bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP |
| |
| bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm |
| command can be restricted. This variable is given as |
| a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed |
| for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size" |
| environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is |
| also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux |
| kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and |
| bootm_mapsize. |
| |
| bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel. |
| This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it |
| defines the size of the memory region starting at base |
| address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel |
| during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used |
| as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is |
| used otherwise. |
| |
| bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm |
| command can be restricted. This variable is given as |
| a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region |
| allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low" |
| environment variable. |
| |
| updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used |
| by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to |
| documentation in doc/README.update for more details. |
| |
| autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'), |
| "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the |
| configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to |
| load any image using TFTP |
| |
| autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp", |
| "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will |
| be automatically started (by internally calling |
| "bootm") |
| |
| If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the |
| "bootm" command will be copied to the load address |
| (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started. |
| This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary |
| data. |
| |
| fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the |
| flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot. |
| For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory |
| at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel |
| only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you |
| may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the |
| device tree blob be copied to the maximum address |
| of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can |
| access it during the boot procedure. |
| |
| If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then |
| the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this |
| to work it must reside in writable memory, have |
| sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to |
| add the information it needs into it, and the memory |
| must be accessible by the kernel. |
| |
| fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened |
| device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is |
| defined. |
| |
| i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) |
| if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast |
| mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in |
| initialization code. So, for changes to be effective |
| it must be saved and board must be reset. |
| |
| initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images: |
| If this variable is not set, initrd images will be |
| copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this |
| is usually what you want since it allows for |
| maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to |
| make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the |
| CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment |
| variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0". |
| Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper |
| address to use (U-Boot will still check that it |
| does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data). |
| |
| For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB |
| RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux, |
| you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of |
| the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make |
| sure that the initrd image is placed in the first |
| 12 MB as well - this can be done with |
| |
| setenv initrd_high 00c00000 |
| |
| If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an |
| indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal |
| for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash |
| memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the |
| ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the |
| boot time on your system, but requires that this |
| feature is supported by your Linux kernel. |
| |
| ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command |
| |
| loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp", |
| "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot" |
| |
| loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO |
| |
| serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command |
| |
| bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME |
| |
| bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR |
| |
| bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR |
| |
| ethprime - controls which interface is used first. |
| |
| ethact - controls which interface is currently active. |
| For example you can do the following |
| |
| => setenv ethact FEC |
| => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC |
| => setenv ethact SCC |
| => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC |
| |
| ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all |
| available network interfaces. |
| It just stays at the currently selected interface. |
| |
| netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will |
| either succeed or fail without retrying. |
| When set to "once" the network operation will |
| fail when all the available network interfaces |
| are tried once without success. |
| Useful on scripts which control the retry operation |
| themselves. |
| |
| npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode |
| |
| tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's |
| UDP source port. |
| |
| tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP |
| destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69. |
| |
| tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set, |
| we use the TFTP server's default block size |
| |
| tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli- |
| seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines |
| when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to |
| be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds. |
| Lowering this value may make downloads succeed |
| faster in networks with high packet loss rates or |
| with unreliable TFTP servers. |
| |
| vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over |
| Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q |
| VLAN tagged frames. |
| |
| The following image location variables contain the location of images |
| used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is |
| not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment |
| variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP |
| server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be |
| loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR |
| flash or offset in NAND flash. |
| |
| *Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some |
| boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some |
| boards use these variables for other purposes. |
| |
| Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location |
| ----- --------- ----------- -------------- |
| u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr |
| Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr |
| device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr |
| ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr |
| |
| The following environment variables may be used and automatically |
| updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"), |
| depending the information provided by your boot server: |
| |
| bootfile - see above |
| dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server |
| dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server |
| gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use |
| hostname - Target hostname |
| ipaddr - see above |
| netmask - Subnet Mask |
| rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server |
| serverip - see above |
| |
| |
| There are two special Environment Variables: |
| |
| serial# - contains hardware identification information such |
| as type string and/or serial number |
| ethaddr - Ethernet address |
| |
| These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of |
| the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables |
| once they have been set once. |
| |
| |
| Further special Environment Variables: |
| |
| ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed |
| with the "version" command. This variable is |
| readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE). |
| |
| |
| Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take |
| only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-). |
| |
| |
| Command Line Parsing: |
| ===================== |
| |
| There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot: |
| the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell: |
| |
| Old, simple command line parser: |
| -------------------------------- |
| |
| - supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands) |
| - several commands on one line, separated by ';' |
| - variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax |
| - special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\', |
| for example: |
| setenv bootcmd bootm \${address} |
| - You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example: |
| setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off' |
| |
| Hush shell: |
| ----------- |
| |
| - similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like |
| if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done, |
| until...do...done, ... |
| - supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv |
| commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax |
| "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run" |
| command |
| |
| General rules: |
| -------------- |
| |
| (1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run" |
| command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and |
| one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be |
| executed anyway. |
| |
| (2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e. |
| calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing |
| command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining |
| variables are not executed. |
| |
| Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces: |
| ======================================= |
| |
| Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports |
| such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a |
| "working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows: |
| |
| Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding |
| MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0), |
| "eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ... |
| |
| If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance |
| in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon- |
| ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment |
| variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means: |
| |
| o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the |
| environment, the SROM's address is used. |
| |
| o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the |
| environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is |
| used. |
| |
| o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and |
| both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used. |
| |
| o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the |
| addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a |
| warning is printed. |
| |
| o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error |
| is raised. |
| |
| If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses |
| will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This |
| may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable. |
| The naming convention is as follows: |
| "ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc. |
| |
| Image Formats: |
| ============== |
| |
| U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) |
| images in two formats: |
| |
| New uImage format (FIT) |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar |
| to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple |
| components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by |
| SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory. |
| |
| |
| Old uImage format |
| ----------------- |
| |
| Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything, |
| preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for |
| details; basically, the header defines the following image properties: |
| |
| * Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, |
| 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks, |
| LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY; |
| Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS, |
| INTEGRITY). |
| * Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, |
| IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; |
| Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC). |
| * Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2) |
| * Load Address |
| * Entry Point |
| * Image Name |
| * Image Timestamp |
| |
| The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header |
| and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by |
| CRC32 checksums. |
| |
| |
| Linux Support: |
| ============== |
| |
| Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application |
| easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of |
| U-Boot. |
| |
| U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some |
|
