| load <interface> [<dev[:part]> [<addr> [<filename> [bytes [pos]]]]] |
| |
| Description |
| ----------- |
| |
| The load command is used to read a file from a filesystem into memory. |
| |
| The number of transferred bytes is saved in the environment variable filesize. |
| The load address is saved in the environment variable fileaddr. |
| |
| interface |
| interface for accessing the block device (mmc, sata, scsi, usb, ....) |
| |
| dev |
| device number |
| |
| part |
| partition number, defaults to 0 (whole device) |
| |
| addr |
| load address, defaults to environment variable loadaddr or if loadaddr is |
| not set to configuration variable CONFIG_SYS_LOAD_ADDR |
| |
| filename |
| path to file, defaults to environment variable bootfile |
| |
| bytes |
| maximum number of bytes to load |
| |
| pos |
| number of bytes to skip |
| |
| addr, bytes, pos are hexadecimal numbers. |
| |
| Example |
| ------- |
| |
| :: |
| |
| => load mmc 0:1 ${kernel_addr_r} snp.efi |
| 149280 bytes read in 11 ms (12.9 MiB/s) |
| => |
| => load mmc 0:1 ${kernel_addr_r} snp.efi 1000000 |
| 149280 bytes read in 9 ms (15.8 MiB/s) |
| => |
| => load mmc 0:1 ${kernel_addr_r} snp.efi 1000000 100 |
| 149024 bytes read in 10 ms (14.2 MiB/s) |
| => |
| => load mmc 0:1 ${kernel_addr_r} snp.efi 10 |
| 16 bytes read in 1 ms (15.6 KiB/s) |

| Configuration |
| ------------- |
| |
| The load command is only available if CONFIG_CMD_FS_GENERIC=y. |
| |
| Return value |
| ------------ |
| |

| even if the number of bytes is less then the specified length. |
| |
| If an error occurs, the return value $? is set to 1 (false). |
