wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +000011This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
wdenke86e5a02004-10-17 21:12:06 +000012Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
13processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
14initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
15code.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +000016
17The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +000018the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
19header files in common, and special provision has been made to
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +000020support booting of Linux images.
21
22Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
23configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
24implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
25add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
26code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
27load and run it dynamically.

30Status:
31=======
32
33In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +000034Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +000035"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000227Software Configuration:
228=======================
229
230Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
231rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
232
233There are two classes of configuration variables:
234
235* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
236 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
237 "CONFIG_".
238
239* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
240 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
241 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +0200242 "CONFIG_SYS_".
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000243
244Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
245identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
246do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
247links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
248as an example here.
249
250
251Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
252---------------------------------------------------
253
254For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +0200255configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig".
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000256
257Example: For a TQM823L module type:
258
259 cd u-boot
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +0200260 make TQM823L_defconfig
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000261
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +0200262For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +0200263e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_defconfig". And also configure the cogent
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000264directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
265
266
Simon Glass75b3c3a2014-03-22 17:12:59 -0600267Sandbox Environment:
268--------------------
269
270U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox'
271board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture-
272specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to
273run some of U-Boot's tests.
274
Jagannadha Sutradharudu Teki6b1978f2014-08-31 21:19:43 +0530275See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details.
Simon Glass75b3c3a2014-03-22 17:12:59 -0600276
277
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000278Configuration Options:
279----------------------
280
281Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
282such information is kept in a configuration file
283"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
284
285Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
286"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
287
288
wdenk7f6c2cb2002-11-10 22:06:23 +0000289Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
290kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
291build a config tool - later.
292
293
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000294The following options need to be configured:
295

Simon Glass38687ae2014-11-10 17:16:54 -0700626- Driver Model
627 Driver model is a new framework for devices in U-Boot
628 introduced in early 2014. U-Boot is being progressively
629 moved over to this. It offers a consistent device structure,
630 supports grouping devices into classes and has built-in
631 handling of platform data and device tree.
632
633 To enable transition to driver model in a relatively
634 painful fashion, each subsystem can be independently
635 switched between the legacy/ad-hoc approach and the new
636 driver model using the options below. Also, many uclass
637 interfaces include compatibility features which may be
638 removed once the conversion of that subsystem is complete.
639 As a result, the API provided by the subsystem may in fact
640 not change with driver model.
641
642 See doc/driver-model/README.txt for more information.
643
644 CONFIG_DM
645
646 Enable driver model. This brings in the core support,
647 including scanning of platform data on start-up. If
648 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is enabled, the device tree will be
649 scanned also when available.
650
651 CONFIG_CMD_DM
652
653 Enable driver model test commands. These allow you to print
654 out the driver model tree and the uclasses.
655
656 CONFIG_DM_DEMO
657
658 Enable some demo devices and the 'demo' command. These are
659 really only useful for playing around while trying to
660 understand driver model in sandbox.
661
662 CONFIG_SPL_DM
663
664 Enable driver model in SPL. You will need to provide a
665 suitable malloc() implementation. If you are not using the
666 full malloc() enabled by CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START,
667 consider using CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE. In that case you
668 must provide CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN to set the size.
669 In most cases driver model will only allocate a few uclasses
670 and devices in SPL, so 1KB should be enable. See
671 CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN for more details on how to enable
672 it.
673
674 CONFIG_DM_SERIAL
675
676 Enable driver model for serial. This replaces
677 drivers/serial/serial.c with the serial uclass, which
678 implements serial_putc() etc. The uclass interface is
679 defined in include/serial.h.
680
681 CONFIG_DM_GPIO
682
683 Enable driver model for GPIO access. The standard GPIO
684 interface (gpio_get_value(), etc.) is then implemented by
685 the GPIO uclass. Drivers provide methods to query the
686 particular GPIOs that they provide. The uclass interface
687 is defined in include/asm-generic/gpio.h.
688
689 CONFIG_DM_SPI
690
691 Enable driver model for SPI. The SPI slave interface
692 (spi_setup_slave(), spi_xfer(), etc.) is then implemented by
693 the SPI uclass. Drivers provide methods to access the SPI
694 buses that they control. The uclass interface is defined in
695 include/spi.h. The existing spi_slave structure is attached
696 as 'parent data' to every slave on each bus. Slaves
697 typically use driver-private data instead of extending the
698 spi_slave structure.
699
700 CONFIG_DM_SPI_FLASH
701
702 Enable driver model for SPI flash. This SPI flash interface
703 (spi_flash_probe(), spi_flash_write(), etc.) is then
704 implemented by the SPI flash uclass. There is one standard
705 SPI flash driver which knows how to probe most chips
706 supported by U-Boot. The uclass interface is defined in
707 include/spi_flash.h, but is currently fully compatible
708 with the old interface to avoid confusion and duplication
709 during the transition parent. SPI and SPI flash must be
710 enabled together (it is not possible to use driver model
711 for one and not the other).
712
713 CONFIG_DM_CROS_EC
714
715 Enable driver model for the Chrome OS EC interface. This
716 allows the cros_ec SPI driver to operate with CONFIG_DM_SPI
717 but otherwise makes few changes. Since cros_ec also supports
718 I2C and LPC (which don't support driver model yet), a full
719 conversion is not yet possible.
720
721
722 ** Code size options: The following options are enabled by
723 default except in SPL. Enable them explicitly to get these
724 features in SPL.
725
726 CONFIG_DM_WARN
727
728 Enable the dm_warn() function. This can use up quite a bit
729 of space for its strings.
730
731 CONFIG_DM_STDIO
732
733 Enable registering a serial device with the stdio library.
734
735 CONFIG_DM_DEVICE_REMOVE
736
737 Enable removing of devices.

742
743 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
744 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
745 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
746 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
747 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
748 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the

wdenk5da627a2003-10-09 20:09:04 +0000757 expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
758 Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.

762 New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
Gerald Van Baren213bf8c2007-03-31 12:23:51 -0400763 passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
764 concepts).
765
766 CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
767 * New libfdt-based support
768 * Adds the "fdt" command
Kim Phillips3bb342f2007-08-10 14:34:14 -0500769 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
Gerald Van Baren213bf8c2007-03-31 12:23:51 -0400770

Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +0200778 boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
779 addresses
Kim Phillips3bb342f2007-08-10 14:34:14 -0500780
Kumar Gala4e253132006-01-11 13:54:17 -0600781 CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
782
783 Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
784 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
wdenk6705d812004-08-02 23:22:59 +0000785
Simon Glassc654b512014-10-23 18:58:54 -0600786 CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP
787
788 Other code has addition modification that it wants to make
789 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel.
790 This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting
791 the kernel.
792
Matthew McClintock02677682006-06-28 10:41:37 -0500793 CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
794
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +0200795 This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
Matthew McClintock02677682006-06-28 10:41:37 -0500796 param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
797
Heiko Schocher3887c3f2009-09-23 07:56:08 +0200798 CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
799
800 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
801 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
802 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
803 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
804 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
805 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
806
Igor Grinberg7eb29392011-07-14 05:45:07 +0000807 CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
808
809 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
810 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
811 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
812 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
813 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
814 in a single configuration file and the machine type is
815 runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
816
Niklaus Giger0b2f4ec2008-11-03 22:13:47 +0100817- vxWorks boot parameters:
818
819 bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
820 environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
821 It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
822
823 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
824 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
825 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
826 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
827
828 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
829
830 Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
831
832 Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
833 the defaults discussed just above.
834
Aneesh V2c451f72011-06-16 23:30:47 +0000835- Cache Configuration:
836 CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
837 CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
838 CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
839
Aneesh V93bc2192011-06-16 23:30:51 +0000840- Cache Configuration for ARM:
841 CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
842 controller
843 CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
844 controller register space

wdenk6705d812004-08-02 23:22:59 +0000846- Serial Ports:
Andreas Engel48d01922008-09-08 14:30:53 +0200847 CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
wdenk6705d812004-08-02 23:22:59 +0000848
849 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
850
Andreas Engel48d01922008-09-08 14:30:53 +0200851 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
wdenk6705d812004-08-02 23:22:59 +0000852
853 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
854
855 CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
856
857 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
858 the clock speed of the UARTs.
859
860 CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
861
862 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
863 define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
864 port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
865
John Rigby910f1ae2011-04-19 10:42:39 +0000866 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
867
868 Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
869 have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set
870 this variable to initialize the extra register.
871
872 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
873
874 On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
875 boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this
876 variable to flush the UART at init time.
877
Karicheri, Muralidharand57dee52014-04-09 15:38:46 -0400878 CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
879
880 Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
881 Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
wdenk6705d812004-08-02 23:22:59 +0000882
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000883- Console Interface:
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +0000884 Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
885 (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
886 CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
887 console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000888
889 Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
890 port routines must be defined elsewhere
891 (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
892
893 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
894 Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following

Pali Rohár33a35bb2012-10-19 13:30:09 +0000932 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
933 a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
934 erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
935
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +0000936 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
937 default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
938 environment 'console=serial'.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000939
wdenkd4ca31c2004-01-02 14:00:00 +0000940 When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
941 messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
942 the "silent" environment variable. See
943 doc/README.silent for more information.
wdenka3ad8e22003-10-19 23:22:11 +0000944
Heiko Schocher45ae2542013-10-22 11:06:06 +0200945 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
946 is 0x00.
947 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
948 is 0xa0.
949
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000950- Console Baudrate:
951 CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
952 Select one of the baudrates listed in
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +0200953 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
954 CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale

Heiko Schocherc92fac92009-01-30 12:55:38 +0100956- Console Rx buffer length
957 With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
958 the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
Heiko Schocher2b3f12c2009-02-10 09:31:47 +0100959 This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
Heiko Schocherc92fac92009-01-30 12:55:38 +0100960 If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
961 must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
962 the SMC.
963
Graeme Russ9558b482011-09-01 00:48:27 +0000964- Pre-Console Buffer:
Wolfgang Denk4cf26092011-10-07 09:58:21 +0200965 Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
966 initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
967 Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
968 buffer any console messages prior to the console being
969 initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
970 bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
971 a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
Wolfgang Denk6feff892011-10-09 21:06:34 +0200972 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
Wolfgang Denk4cf26092011-10-07 09:58:21 +0200973 earlier bytes are discarded.
Graeme Russ9558b482011-09-01 00:48:27 +0000974
Wolfgang Denk4cf26092011-10-07 09:58:21 +0200975 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
976 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
Graeme Russ9558b482011-09-01 00:48:27 +0000977
Sonny Rao046a37b2011-11-02 09:52:08 +0000978- Safe printf() functions
979 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
980 the printf() functions. These are defined in
981 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
982 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
983 If this option is not given then these functions will
984 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
985 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
986
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000987- Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
988 Delay before automatically booting the default image;
989 set to -1 to disable autoboot.
Joe Hershberger93d72122012-08-17 10:53:12 +0000990 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
991 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +0000992
993 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
994 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
995 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
996 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
997 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
998 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
999 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
1000 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
1001 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
1002 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
1003 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
1004 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
1005
1006- Autoboot Command:
1007 CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
1008 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
1009 define a command string that is automatically executed
1010 when no character is read on the console interface
1011 within "Boot Delay" after reset.
1012
1013 CONFIG_BOOTARGS
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00001014 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
1015 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
1016 environment value "bootargs".
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001017
1018 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00001019 The value of these goes into the environment as
1020 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
1021 as a convenience, when switching between booting from
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02001022 RAM and NFS.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001023
Heiko Schochereda0ba32013-11-04 14:04:59 +01001024- Bootcount:
1025 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
1026 Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
1027 cycle, see:
1028 http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
1029
1030 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
1031 If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
1032 "bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
1033 saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
1034 "upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
1035 0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
1036 1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
1037 So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
1038 and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
1039
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001040- Pre-Boot Commands:
1041 CONFIG_PREBOOT
1042
1043 When this option is #defined, the existence of the
1044 environment variable "preboot" will be checked
1045 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
1046 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
1047 entering interactive mode.
1048
1049 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
1050 automatically generated or modified. For an example
1051 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
1052 modified when the user holds down a certain
1053 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
1054 booting the systems
1055
1056- Serial Download Echo Mode:
1057 CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
1058 If defined to 1, all characters received during a
1059 serial download (using the "loads" command) are
1060 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
1061 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
1062 time on others. This setting #define's the initial
1063 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
1064
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05001065- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001066 CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
1067 Select one of the baudrates listed in
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02001068 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001069
1070- Monitor Functions:
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05001071 Monitor commands can be included or excluded
1072 from the build by using the #include files
Stephen Warrenc6c621b2012-08-05 16:07:19 +00001073 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
1074 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05001075 and augmenting with additional #define's
1076 for wanted commands.

wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00001200 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1201 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1202 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1203 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other

1208 XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1209
Wolfgang Denka5ecbe62013-03-23 23:50:31 +00001210- Regular expression support:
1211 CONFIG_REGEX
Wolfgang Denk93e14592013-10-04 17:43:24 +02001212 If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1213 the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1214 which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1215 example "env grep" and "setexpr".
Wolfgang Denka5ecbe62013-03-23 23:50:31 +00001216
Simon Glass45ba8072011-10-15 05:48:20 +00001217- Device tree:
1218 CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
1219 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1220 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1221 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1222 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1223 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1224
Simon Glass2c0f79e2011-10-24 19:15:31 +00001225 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1226 be done using one of the two options below:
Simon Glassbbb0b122011-10-15 05:48:21 +00001227
1228 CONFIG_OF_EMBED
1229 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1230 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1231 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1232 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1233 the global data structure as gd->blob.
Simon Glass45ba8072011-10-15 05:48:20 +00001234
Simon Glass2c0f79e2011-10-24 19:15:31 +00001235 CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
1236 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1237 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1238 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1239
1240 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1241
1242 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1243 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1244 still use the individual files if you need something more
1245 exotic.
1246
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001247- Watchdog:
1248 CONFIG_WATCHDOG
1249 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
Detlev Zundel6abe6fb2011-04-27 05:25:59 +00001250 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1251 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1252 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1253 register. When supported for a specific SoC is
1254 available, then no further board specific code should
1255 be needed to use it.
1256
1257 CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
1258 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1259 SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1260 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001261
stroesec1551ea2003-04-04 15:53:41 +00001262- U-Boot Version:
1263 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1264 If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1265 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1266 version as printed by the "version" command.
Benoît Thébaudeaua1ea8e52012-08-13 15:01:14 +02001267 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1268 next reset.
stroesec1551ea2003-04-04 15:53:41 +00001269
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001270- Real-Time Clock:
1271
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05001272 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001273 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1274 following options:
1275
1276 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1277 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC
Fabio Estevam4e8b7542011-10-24 06:44:15 +00001278 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001281 CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
wdenk7f70e852003-05-20 14:25:27 +00001282 CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
Markus Niebel412921d2014-07-21 11:06:16 +02001283 CONFIG_RTC_DS1339 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
wdenk3bac3512003-03-12 10:41:04 +00001284 CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC

Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02001287 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
Heiko Schocher71d19f32011-03-28 09:24:22 +02001288 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on
1289 RV3029 RTC.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001290
wdenkb37c7e52003-06-30 16:24:52 +00001291 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1292 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1293
Peter Tysere92739d2008-12-17 16:36:21 -06001294- GPIO Support:
1295 CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
Peter Tysere92739d2008-12-17 16:36:21 -06001296
Chris Packham5dec49c2010-12-19 10:12:13 +00001297 The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1298 chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1299 pins supported by a particular chip.
1300
Peter Tysere92739d2008-12-17 16:36:21 -06001301 Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1302 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1303
Simon Glassaa532332014-06-11 23:29:41 -06001304- I/O tracing:
1305 When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
1306 accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
1307 to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
1308 useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
1309 the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
1310 change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
1311 add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
1312 to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
1313
1314 Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
1315 Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
1316 still continue to operate.
1317
1318 iotrace is enabled
1319 Start: 10000000 (buffer start address)
1320 Size: 00010000 (buffer size)
1321 Offset: 00000120 (current buffer offset)
1322 Output: 10000120 (start + offset)
1323 Count: 00000018 (number of trace records)
1324 CRC32: 9526fb66 (CRC32 of all trace records)
1325
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001326- Timestamp Support:
1327
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00001328 When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1329 (date and time) of an image is printed by image
1330 commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05001331 automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001332
Karl O. Pinc923c46f2012-08-16 06:20:15 +00001333- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1334 Zero or more of the following:
1335 CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table.
1336 CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1337 Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1338 CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1339 CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1340 bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see

1658 the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1659 via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1660 the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1661 viewport is supported.
1662 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1663 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
Lucas Stach6d365ea2012-10-01 00:44:35 +02001664 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1665 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1666 the appropriate value in Hz.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00001667
1668- MMC Support:
1669 The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1670 enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1671 accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1672 to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05001673 enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1674 the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.

Heiko Schochere7e75c72013-06-12 06:05:51 +02001717 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1718 Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1719 raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1720 configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1721 through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1722
Pantelis Antoniouea2453d2013-03-14 05:32:48 +00001723 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1724 When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1725 we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1726 the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define
1727 this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1728 Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1729
Heiko Schocher001a8312014-03-18 08:09:56 +01001730 DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1731 Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1732 host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1733 a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1734
1735 DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1736 Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1737 entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1738 sending again an USB request to the device.

1759 downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a
1760 platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot.
1761
Steve Raed1b5ed02014-08-26 11:47:28 -07001762 CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH
1763 The fastboot protocol includes a "flash" command for writing
1764 the downloaded image to a non-volatile storage device. Define
1765 this to enable the "fastboot flash" command.
1766
1767 CONFIG_FASTBOOT_FLASH_MMC_DEV
1768 The fastboot "flash" command requires additional information
1769 regarding the non-volatile storage device. Define this to

Simon Glass676d3192012-10-17 13:24:54 +00001955 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1956
1957 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1958 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1959 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1960 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1961 a per-section basis.

wdenkd791b1d2003-04-20 14:04:18 +00001980
wdenk8bde7f72003-06-27 21:31:46 +00001981 If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1982 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1983 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
wdenke94d2cd2004-06-30 22:59:18 +00001984 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
wdenk8bde7f72003-06-27 21:31:46 +00001985 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1986 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1987 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1988 loaded very quickly after power-on.
wdenkd791b1d2003-04-20 14:04:18 +00001989
Nikita Kiryanovc0880482013-02-24 21:28:43 +00001990 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1991
1992 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1993 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
Tom Rini1551df32014-02-25 10:27:01 -05001994 (see README.displaying-bmps).
Nikita Kiryanovc0880482013-02-24 21:28:43 +00001995 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1996 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1997 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1998 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1999 there is no need to set this option.
2000
Matthias Weisser1ca298c2009-07-09 16:07:30 +02002001 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
2002
2003 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
2004 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
2005 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
2006 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
2007 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
2008 specify 'm' for centering the image.
2009

Stefan Roese98f4a3d2005-09-22 09:04:17 +02002021- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
2022
2023 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
2024 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
2025 splashscreen support or the bmp command.
2026
Anatolij Gustschind5011762010-03-15 14:50:25 +01002027- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
2028
2029 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
2030 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
2031 bmp command.
2032
Lei Wenf2b96df2012-09-28 04:26:47 +00002033- Do compresssing for memory range:
2034 CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
2035
2036 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
2037 to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
2038
wdenkc29fdfc2003-08-29 20:57:53 +00002039- Compression support:
Kees Cook8ef70472013-08-16 07:59:12 -07002040 CONFIG_GZIP
2041
2042 Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
2043
wdenkc29fdfc2003-08-29 20:57:53 +00002044 CONFIG_BZIP2
2045
2046 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
2047 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
2048 compressed images are supported.
2049
wdenk42d1f032003-10-15 23:53:47 +00002050 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002051 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
wdenk42d1f032003-10-15 23:53:47 +00002052 be at least 4MB.
wdenkd791b1d2003-04-20 14:04:18 +00002053
Luigi 'Comio' Mantellinifc9c1722008-09-08 02:46:13 +02002054 CONFIG_LZMA
2055
2056 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
2057 images is included.
2058
2059 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
2060 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
2061 formula:
2062
2063 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
2064
2065 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
2066 and Literal pos bits.
2067
2068 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
2069 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
2070 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
2071 a very small buffer.
2072
2073 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
2074 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002075 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
Luigi 'Comio' Mantellinifc9c1722008-09-08 02:46:13 +02002076
Kees Cook8ef70472013-08-16 07:59:12 -07002077 CONFIG_LZO
2078
2079 If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
2080 is included.
2081
wdenk17ea1172004-06-06 21:51:03 +00002082- MII/PHY support:

2088
2089 The clock frequency of the MII bus
2090
2091 CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
2092
2093 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002094 detection of gigabit PHY is included.
wdenk17ea1172004-06-06 21:51:03 +00002095
2096 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
2097
2098 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
2099 reset before any MII register access is possible.
2100 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
2101 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
2102
2103 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
2104
2105 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
2106 command issued before MII status register can be read

Robin Getz97cfe862009-07-21 12:15:28 -04002135 CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
2136
2137 Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
2138 for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
2139
Wolfgang Denk1ebcd652011-10-26 10:21:22 +00002140- Gateway IP address:

2144 default router where packets to other networks are
2145 sent to.
2146 (Environment variable "gatewayip")
2147
2148- Subnet mask:
2149 CONFIG_NETMASK
2150
2151 Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
2152 routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
2153 address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
2154 forwarded through a router.
2155 (Environment variable "netmask")
2156
David Updegraff53a5c422007-06-11 10:41:07 -05002157- Multicast TFTP Mode:
2158 CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
2159
2160 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
2161 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002162 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet
David Updegraff53a5c422007-06-11 10:41:07 -05002163 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
2164 multicast group.
2165
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002166- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
2167 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
2168
2169 If you have many targets in a network that try to
2170 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
2171 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
2172 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
2173 from a power failure, when all systems will try to
2174 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
2175 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
2176 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
Wolfgang Denk6c33c782007-08-06 23:21:05 +02002177 following delays are inserted then:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002178
2179 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec
2180 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec
2181 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec
2182 4th and following
2183 BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec
2184
Thierry Reding92ac8ac2014-08-19 10:21:24 +02002185 CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE
2186
2187 BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The
2188 server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and
2189 U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of
2190 an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses
2191 aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP
2192 ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to
2193 respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it
2194 takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that
2195 time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order
2196 to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these
2197 retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of
2198 IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this
2199 cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding
2200 requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers
2201 from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency.
2202

stroesefe389a82003-08-28 14:17:32 +00002220
Wilson Callan5d110f02007-07-28 10:56:13 -04002221 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
2222 environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
stroesefe389a82003-08-28 14:17:32 +00002223
Joe Hershberger2c00e092012-05-23 07:59:19 +00002224 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
2225 after the configured retry count, the call will fail
2226 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over
2227 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
2228 is not available.
2229
stroesefe389a82003-08-28 14:17:32 +00002230 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
2231 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
2232 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
2233 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
2234 serverip will be stored in the additional environment
2235 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
2236 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
Jon Loeliger1fe80d72007-07-09 22:08:34 -05002237 is defined.
stroesefe389a82003-08-28 14:17:32 +00002238
2239 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
2240 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
2241 need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
Wilson Callan5d110f02007-07-28 10:56:13 -04002242 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
Jon Loeliger1fe80d72007-07-09 22:08:34 -05002243 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
2244 option 12 to the DHCP server.
stroesefe389a82003-08-28 14:17:32 +00002245
Aras Vaichasd9a2f412008-03-26 09:43:57 +11002246 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
2247
2248 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
2249 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
2250 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
2251 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
2252 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
2253 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
2254 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
2255 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
2256 that one of the retries will be successful but note that
2257 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
2258 this delay.
2259
Joe Hershbergerd22c3382012-05-23 08:00:12 +00002260 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
2261 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
2262 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
2263 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
2264 to exist in all environments that the device must operate.

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002310- Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2311
2312 Several configurations allow to display the current
2313 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2314 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2315 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2316 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2317 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2318 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2319 feature in U-Boot.
2320
Igor Grinberg1df7bbb2013-11-08 01:03:50 +02002321 Additional options:
2322
2323 CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2324 The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2325 In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2326 status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2327 to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2328
Igor Grinberg9dfdcdf2013-11-08 01:03:52 +02002329 CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2330 Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2331 case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2332 GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2333 In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2334 with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2335
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002336- CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2337

2339 on those systems that support this (optional)
2340 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2341

2481 omit this define.
2482
2483 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS

2486 define.
2487
2488 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2489 hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2490 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2491 a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and

Heiko Schocherea818db2013-01-29 08:53:15 +01002518- Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C
Heiko Schocher3f4978c2012-01-16 21:12:24 +00002519
2520 NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2521 provides the following compelling advantages:
2522
2523 - more than one i2c adapter is usable
2524 - approved multibus support
2525 - better i2c mux support
2526
2527 ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2528
Heiko Schocherea818db2013-01-29 08:53:15 +01002529 These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2530 CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2531 for the selected CPU.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002532
wdenk945af8d2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00002533 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05002534 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
wdenkb37c7e52003-06-30 16:24:52 +00002535 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2536 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002537 command line interface.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002538
Ben Warrenbb99ad62006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002539 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002540
wdenk945af8d2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00002541 There are several other quantities that must also be
Heiko Schocherea818db2013-01-29 08:53:15 +01002542 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002543
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002544 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
wdenk945af8d2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00002545 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002546 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002547 the CPU's i2c node address).
wdenk945af8d2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00002548
Peter Tyser8d321b82010-04-12 22:28:21 -05002549 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
Stefan Roesea47a12b2010-04-15 16:07:28 +02002550 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
Peter Tyser8d321b82010-04-12 22:28:21 -05002551 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2552 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2553 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002554
Eric Millbrandt5da71ef2009-09-03 08:09:44 -05002555 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2556
2557 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2558 chips might think that the current transfer is still
2559 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start
2560 commands until the slave device responds.
2561
wdenk945af8d2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00002562 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
wdenkb37c7e52003-06-30 16:24:52 +00002563
Heiko Schocherea818db2013-01-29 08:53:15 +01002564 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
wdenkb37c7e52003-06-30 16:24:52 +00002565 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2566 from include/configs/lwmon.h):
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002567
2568 I2C_INIT
2569
wdenkb37c7e52003-06-30 16:24:52 +00002570 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002571 controller or configure ports.

2576
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002577 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2578 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2579 are 0..3 for ports A..D.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002580
2581 I2C_ACTIVE
2582
2583 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2584 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002622 I2C_DELAY
2623
2624 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2625 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus
wdenkb37c7e52003-06-30 16:24:52 +00002626 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
wdenk945af8d2003-07-16 21:53:01 +00002627 like:
2628
wdenkb37c7e52003-06-30 16:24:52 +00002629 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2)

Mike Frysinger793b5722010-07-21 13:38:02 -04002631 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2632
2633 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2634 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2635 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2636 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2637
2638 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2639 the generic GPIO functions.

wdenk8bde7f72003-06-27 21:31:46 +00002643 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2644 chips might think that the current transfer is still
2645 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2646 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2647 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2648 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2649 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2650 is run early in the boot sequence.
wdenk47cd00f2003-03-06 13:39:27 +00002651
Richard Retanubun26a33502010-04-12 15:08:17 -04002652 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2653
2654 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2655 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2656 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2657 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2658 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2659 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2660 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus

2664
2665 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2666 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2667 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2668
Ben Warrenbb99ad62006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002669 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2670
2671 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
Wolfgang Denkc0f40852011-10-26 10:21:21 +00002672 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is
2673 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
Ben Warrenbb99ad62006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002674 Note that bus numbering is zero-based.

Ben Warrenbb99ad62006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002677
2678 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
Wolfgang Denkc0f40852011-10-26 10:21:21 +00002679 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
Peter Tyser0f89c542009-04-18 22:34:03 -05002680 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify
2681 a 1D array of device addresses
Ben Warrenbb99ad62006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002682
2683 e.g.

Wolfgang Denkc0f40852011-10-26 10:21:21 +00002685 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
Ben Warrenbb99ad62006-09-07 16:50:54 -04002686
2687 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2688
Wolfgang Denkc0f40852011-10-26 10:21:21 +00002689 #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS

2711 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2712 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2713 specified DTT device.
2714
Andrew Dyer2ac69852008-12-29 17:36:01 -06002715 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2716
2717 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2718 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2719 between writing the address pointer and reading the
2720 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2721 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C
2722 devices can use either method, but some require one or
2723 the other.

2744 using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2745 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2746 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2747 defined, the board configuration must define several
2748 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2749 an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.

2844
2845 Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary
2846 with a special header) as build targets. By defining
2847 CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this
2848 special image will be automatically built upon calling
2849 make / MAKEALL.

2854 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002855
2856- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2857
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002858 U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2859 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
wdenk7152b1d2003-09-05 23:19:14 +00002860 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002861 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2862 protects these variables from casual modification by
2863 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2864 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002865 change this behaviour:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002866
2867 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2868 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
wdenk47cd00f2003-03-06 13:39:27 +00002869 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002870 these parameters.
2871
2872 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2873 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002874 Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002875 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2876 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2877 read-only.]
2878
Joe Hershberger25980902012-12-11 22:16:31 -06002879 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2880 for any variable by configuring the type of access
2881 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2882 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2883
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002884- Protected RAM:
2885 CONFIG_PRAM
2886
2887 Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2888 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2889 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2890 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2891 this default value by defining an environment
2892 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2893 reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2894 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2895 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2896 automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2897 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2898 argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2899
Wolfgang Denkfe126d82005-11-20 21:40:11 +01002900 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002901 saveenv
2902
2903 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2904 either, which results in a memory region that will
2905 not be affected by reboots.
2906
2907 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2908 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2909 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2910 following board configurations are known to be
2911 "pRAM-clean":
2912
Wolfgang Denk1b0757e2012-10-24 02:36:15 +00002913 IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,

Gabe Black40fef042012-12-02 04:55:18 +00002917- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2918 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2919 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2920 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2921 machines using physical address extension or similar.
2922 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2923 currently only supports clearing the memory.
2924
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002925- Error Recovery:
2926 CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
2927
2928 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2929 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2930 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02002931 system where you want the system to reboot
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002932 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2933 useful during development since you can try to debug
2934 the conditions that lead to the situation.
2935
2936 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2937
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002938 This variable defines the number of retries for
2939 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2940 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2941 default value of 5 is used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002942
Guennadi Liakhovetski40cb90e2008-04-03 17:04:19 +02002943 CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT

2946
Tetsuyuki Kobayashi48a3e992012-07-03 22:25:21 +00002947 CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2948
2949 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2950 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2951 try longer timeout such as
2952 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL

2958
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02002959 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002960
2961 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2962 printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2963 to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2964
2965 Note:
2966
wdenk8bde7f72003-06-27 21:31:46 +00002967 In the current implementation, the local variables
2968 space and global environment variables space are
2969 separated. Local variables are those you define by
2970 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2971 variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2972 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2973 directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002974
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002975 Global environment variables are those you use
2976 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2977 in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2978 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002979
2980 To store commands and special characters in a
2981 variable, please use double quotation marks
2982 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2983 of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2984 symbols.

wdenka8c7c702003-12-06 19:49:23 +00002992- Default Environment:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00002993 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2994
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002995 Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2996 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
wdenk7152b1d2003-09-05 23:19:14 +00002997 the default environment compiled into the boot image.
wdenk2262cfe2002-11-18 00:14:45 +00002998
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00002999 For example, place something like this in your
3000 board's config file:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003001
3002 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
3003 "myvar1=value1\0" \
3004 "myvar2=value2\0"
3005
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003006 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
3007 internal format how the environment is stored by the
3008 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
3009 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
wdenk7152b1d2003-09-05 23:19:14 +00003010 will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003011 You better know what you are doing here.
3012
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003013 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
3014 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
Wolfgang Denk74de7ae2009-04-01 23:34:12 +02003015 the environment like the "source" command or the
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003016 boot command first.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003017
Stephen Warren5e724ca2012-05-22 09:21:54 +00003018 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
3019
3020 Define this in order to add variables describing the
3021 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
3022 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
3023
3024 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
3025
3026 - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
3027 - CONFIG_SYS_CPU
3028 - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
3029 - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
3030 - CONFIG_SYS_SOC
3031
Tom Rini7e27f892012-10-24 07:28:16 +00003032 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
3033
3034 Define this in order to add variables describing certain
3035 run-time determined information about the hardware to the
3036 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev.
3037
Simon Glass06fd8532012-11-30 13:01:17 +00003038 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
3039
3040 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
3041 intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
3042 that so that the environment is not available until
3043 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
3044 this is instead controlled by the value of
3045 /config/load-environment.
3046
wdenka8c7c702003-12-06 19:49:23 +00003047- DataFlash Support:
wdenk2abbe072003-06-16 23:50:08 +00003048 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
3049
wdenk8bde7f72003-06-27 21:31:46 +00003050 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
3051 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
3052 commands cp, md...
wdenk2abbe072003-06-16 23:50:08 +00003053
Eric Nelsonf61ec452012-01-31 10:52:08 -07003054- Serial Flash support
3055 CONFIG_CMD_SF
3056
3057 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
3058 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
3059
3060 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
3061 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
3062 commands.
3063
3064 The following defaults may be provided by the platform
3065 to handle the common case when only a single serial
3066 flash is present on the system.
3067
3068 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier
3069 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select
3070 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h)
3071 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz
3072
Simon Glass24007272012-10-08 13:16:02 +00003073 CONFIG_CMD_SF_TEST
3074
3075 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
3076 test ('sf test').
3077
Jagannadha Sutradharudu Teki1dcd6d02013-06-19 15:33:58 +05303078 CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg
3079
3080 Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
3081 support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
3082
Jagannadha Sutradharudu Tekib902e072014-01-11 15:25:04 +05303083 CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH Dual flash memories
3084
3085 Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
3086 memories can be connected with a given cs line.
3087 currently Xilinx Zynq qspi support these type of connections.
3088
Heiko Schocher562f8df2014-07-18 06:07:21 +02003089 CONFIG_SYS_SPI_ST_ENABLE_WP_PIN
3090 enable the W#/Vpp signal to disable writing to the status
3091 register on ST MICRON flashes like the N25Q128.
3092 The status register write enable/disable bit, combined with
3093 the W#/VPP signal provides hardware data protection for the
3094 device as follows: When the enable/disable bit is set to 1,
3095 and the W#/VPP signal is driven LOW, the status register
3096 nonvolatile bits become read-only and the WRITE STATUS REGISTER
3097 operation will not execute. The only way to exit this
3098 hardware-protected mode is to drive W#/VPP HIGH.
3099
wdenk3f85ce22004-02-23 16:11:30 +00003100- SystemACE Support:
3101 CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
3102
3103 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
3104 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003105 of the chip must also be defined in the
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003106 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
wdenk3f85ce22004-02-23 16:11:30 +00003107
3108 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003109 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
wdenk3f85ce22004-02-23 16:11:30 +00003110
3111 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
3112 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
3113
Wolfgang Denkecb0ccd2005-09-24 22:37:32 +02003114- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
3115 CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
3116
Wolfgang Denk28cb9372005-09-24 23:25:46 +02003117 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
Wolfgang Denkecb0ccd2005-09-24 22:37:32 +02003118 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
Wolfgang Denk28cb9372005-09-24 23:25:46 +02003119 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
Wolfgang Denkecb0ccd2005-09-24 22:37:32 +02003120 number generator is used.
3121
Wolfgang Denk28cb9372005-09-24 23:25:46 +02003122 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
3123 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't
3124 defined, the normal port 69 is used.
3125
3126 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
Wolfgang Denkecb0ccd2005-09-24 22:37:32 +02003127 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
3128 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
3129 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
3130 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
3131 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
3132 but sometimes that is not allowed.
3133
Simon Glassbf36c5d2012-12-05 14:46:38 +00003134- Hashing support:
3135 CONFIG_CMD_HASH
3136
3137 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
3138 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
3139
3140 CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY
3141
3142 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
3143 size a little.
3144
3145 CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
3146 CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
3147
3148 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
3149 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
3150
Robert Winklera11f1872013-07-24 17:57:06 -07003151- Freescale i.MX specific commands:
3152 CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
3153 This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
3154 HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific.
3155
3156 CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
3157 This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
3158 a boot from specific media.
3159
3160 This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
3161 activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
3162 on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal
3163 will set it back to normal. This command currently
3164 supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
3165
Simon Glass19c402a2013-06-13 15:10:02 -07003166- Signing support:
3167 CONFIG_RSA
3168
3169 This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
Detlev Zundel8bf2aad2014-01-20 16:21:46 +01003170 in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
Simon Glass19c402a2013-06-13 15:10:02 -07003171
3172 The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
3173 option.
3174
Heiko Schocher9e50c402014-01-25 07:27:13 +01003175- bootcount support:
3176 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
3177
3178 This enables the bootcounter support, see:
3179 http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
3180
3181 CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
3182 enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
3183 CONFIG_BLACKFIN
3184 enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
3185 CONFIG_SOC_DA8XX
3186 enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
3187 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
3188 enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
3189 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
3190 enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
3191 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
3192 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
3193 the bootcounter.
3194 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
Simon Glass19c402a2013-06-13 15:10:02 -07003195
wdenka8c7c702003-12-06 19:49:23 +00003196- Show boot progress:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003197 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
3198
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003199 Defining this option allows to add some board-
3200 specific code (calling a user-provided function
3201 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
3202 the system's boot progress on some display (for
3203 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
3204 the following checkpoints are implemented:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003205
Simon Glass3a608ca2012-02-13 13:51:19 +00003206- Detailed boot stage timing
3207 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
3208 Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
3209 of the boot process.
3210
3211 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
3212 This is the number of available user bootstage records.
3213 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
3214 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
3215 the limit, recording will stop.
3216
3217 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
3218 Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
3219
3220 Timer summary in microseconds:
3221 Mark Elapsed Stage
3222 0 0 reset
3223 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start
3224 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9
3225 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done

3228 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start
3229 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel
3230
Simon Glass2eba38c2012-09-28 08:56:39 +00003231 CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
3232 Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
3233 and un/stashing of bootstage data.
3234
Simon Glass94fd1312012-09-28 08:56:37 +00003235 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
3236 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
3237 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
3238 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
3239 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
3240 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
3241 For example:
3242
3243 bootstage {
3244 154 {
3245 name = "board_init_f";
3246 mark = <3575678>;
3247 };
3248 170 {
3249 name = "lcd";
3250 accum = <33482>;
3251 };
3252 };
3253
3254 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

Wolfgang Denk6feff892011-10-09 21:06:34 +02003451 This option defines a board specific value for the
3452 address where standalone program gets loaded, thus

3461 when using a graphics controller has separate video
3462 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3463 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3464 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3465 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3466 configured panel size.

3495 Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3496 with the UBI flash translation layer
3497
3498 Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3499
Joe Hershberger147162d2013-04-08 10:32:49 +00003500 CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3501
3502 Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing. This leaves
3503 warnings and errors enabled.
3504
Heiko Schocherff94bc42014-06-24 10:10:04 +02003505
3506 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
3507 This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
3508 erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
3509 of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
3510 wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
3511 counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
3512
3513 The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
3514 other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
3515 However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
3516 life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
3517 to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
3518
3519 default: 4096
Simon Glassc654b512014-10-23 18:58:54 -06003520
Heiko Schocherff94bc42014-06-24 10:10:04 +02003521 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
3522 This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
3523 expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
3524 underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
3525 flash), this value is ignored.
3526
3527 NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
3528 (Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
3529 The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
3530 then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
3531 which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
3532 count of eraseblocks on the chip).
3533
3534 To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
3535 reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
3536 handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
3537 NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
3538 that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
3539 eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
3540 size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
3541 partition.
3542
3543 default: 20
3544
3545 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
3546 Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
3547 in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
3548 only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
3549 The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
3550 the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
3551 attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
3552 a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
3553 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
3554 that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
3555 without fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
3556 fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
3557
3558 CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
3559 Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
3560 without a fastmap.
3561 default: 0
3562
Joe Hershberger70c219c2013-04-08 10:32:48 +00003563- UBIFS support
3564 CONFIG_CMD_UBIFS
3565
3566 Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3567 UBIFS. UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3568
3569 Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3570
Joe Hershberger147162d2013-04-08 10:32:49 +00003571 CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG

wdenka8c7c702003-12-06 19:49:23 +00003830- Interrupt support (PPC):
3831
wdenkd4ca31c2004-01-02 14:00:00 +00003832 There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
3833 for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003834 for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
wdenkd4ca31c2004-01-02 14:00:00 +00003835 should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003836 CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
wdenkd4ca31c2004-01-02 14:00:00 +00003837 (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003838 timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
wdenkd4ca31c2004-01-02 14:00:00 +00003839 specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
3840 / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
3841 general timer_interrupt().

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003843- General:
3844
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003845 In the target system modem support is enabled when a
3846 specific key (key combination) is pressed during
3847 power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003848 (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003849 board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
3850 function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
3851 initialization.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003852
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00003853 If there are no modem init strings in the
3854 environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
3855 previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003856 suppressed, though.

3861------------------------------
3862
3863During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
3864to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
3865before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
3866following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
3867architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
3868typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().

Stefan Roese14f73ca2008-03-26 10:14:11 +01003931 this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02003932 (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
Stefan Roese14f73ca2008-03-26 10:14:11 +01003933 fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
3934 the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
3935 This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
Stefan Roese5e12e752008-03-28 11:02:53 +01003936 board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that

Stefan Roese5e12e752008-03-28 11:02:53 +01003938 will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
Stefan Roese14f73ca2008-03-26 10:14:11 +01003939
3940 This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
3941 CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
3942 be touched.
3943
3944 WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
3945 the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
3946 then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
3947 non page size aligned address and this could cause major
3948 problems.

3952
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003953- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003954 Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
3955
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003956- CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003957 Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
3958 Cogent motherboard)
3959
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003960- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003961 Physical start address of Flash memory.
3962
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003963- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003964 Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
3965 make config files to be same as the text base address
Wolfgang Denk14d0a022010-10-07 21:51:12 +02003966 (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003967 CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003968
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003969- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
wdenk8bde7f72003-06-27 21:31:46 +00003970 Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
3971 determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
3972 embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
3973 flash sector.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003974
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003975- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00003976 Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
3977
Simon Glassd59476b2014-07-10 22:23:28 -06003978- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
3979 Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
3980 this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
3981 will become available before relocation. The address is just
3982 below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
3983 space.
3984
3985 This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
3986 within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
3987 is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
3988 The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotton) when
3989 U-Boot relocates itself.
3990
Simon Glasse7b14e92014-09-15 06:33:18 -06003991 Pre-relocation malloc() is only supported on ARM and sandbox
Simon Glass29afe9e2014-07-10 22:23:31 -06003992 at present but is fairly easy to enable for other archs.
3993
Simon Glass38687ae2014-11-10 17:16:54 -07003994- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE
3995 Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those
3996 boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is
3997 enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START).
3998
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02003999- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
Stefan Roese15940c92006-03-13 11:16:36 +01004000 Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
4001 uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004002 you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
Stefan Roese15940c92006-03-13 11:16:36 +01004003 to adjust this setting to your needs.
4004
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004005- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004006 Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
4007 the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
Bartlomiej Sieka7d721e32008-04-14 15:44:16 +02004008 the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
4009 used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
Robert P. J. Day1bce2ae2013-09-16 07:15:45 -04004010 environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
Bartlomiej Sieka7d721e32008-04-14 15:44:16 +02004011 all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
Wolfgang Denkc0f40852011-10-26 10:21:21 +00004012 and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment
Grant Likelyc3624e62011-03-28 09:58:43 +00004013 variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
4014 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
4015 then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004016
John Rigbyfca43cc2010-10-13 13:57:35 -06004017- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
4018 Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the
4019 initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
4020 is enabled.
4021
4022- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
4023 Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
4024 "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
4025
4026- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
4027 Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
4028 space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
4029
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004030- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004031 Max number of Flash memory banks
4032
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004033- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004034 Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
4035
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004036- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004037 Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
4038
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004039- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004040 Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
4041
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004042- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
wdenk8564acf2003-07-14 22:13:32 +00004043 Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
4044
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004045- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
wdenk8564acf2003-07-14 22:13:32 +00004046 Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
4047
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004048- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
wdenk8564acf2003-07-14 22:13:32 +00004049 If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
4050 instead of U-Boot software protection.
4051
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004052- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004053
4054 Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
4055 without this option such a download has to be
4056 performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
4057 copy from RAM to flash.
4058
4059 The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
4060 you can check if the download worked before you erase
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02004061 the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
4062 too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004063 downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
4064
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004065- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00004066 Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
wdenk5653fc32004-02-08 22:55:38 +00004067 common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
4068
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD00b18832008-08-13 01:40:42 +02004069- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
wdenk5653fc32004-02-08 22:55:38 +00004070 This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
4071 in the drivers directory
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004072
Piotr Ziecik91809ed2008-11-17 15:57:58 +01004073- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
4074 This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
4075 in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
4076 to the MTD layer.
4077
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004078- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
Guennadi Liakhovetski96ef8312008-04-03 13:36:02 +02004079 Use buffered writes to flash.
4080
4081- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
4082 s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
4083 write commands.
4084
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004085- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
Stefan Roese5568e612005-11-22 13:20:42 +01004086 If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
4087 print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
4088 is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
4089 optionally available.
4090
Jerry Van Baren9a042e92008-03-08 13:48:01 -05004091- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
4092 If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
4093 digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
4094 column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
4095
Stefan Roese352ef3f2013-04-04 15:53:14 +02004096- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
4097 If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
4098 against the source after the write operation. An error message
4099 will be printed when the contents are not identical.
4100 Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
4101 since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
4102 while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
4103 this option if you really know what you are doing.
4104
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004105- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02004106 Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
4107 Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
stroese53cf9432003-06-05 15:39:44 +00004108 to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
4109 buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02004110 on high Ethernet traffic.
stroese53cf9432003-06-05 15:39:44 +00004111 Defaults to 4 if not defined.
4112
Wolfgang Denkea882ba2010-06-20 23:33:59 +02004113- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
4114
Wolfgang Denk071bc922010-10-27 22:48:30 +02004115 Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
4116 internally to store the environment settings. The default
4117 setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
4118 cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
4119 lib/hashtable.c for details.
Wolfgang Denkea882ba2010-06-20 23:33:59 +02004120
Joe Hershberger25980902012-12-11 22:16:31 -06004121- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4122- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
Robert P. J. Day1bce2ae2013-09-16 07:15:45 -04004123 Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
Joe Hershberger25980902012-12-11 22:16:31 -06004124 calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
4125 hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
4126 the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
4127
4128 The format of the list is:
4129 type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
Joe Hershberger267541f2012-12-11 22:16:34 -06004130 access_atribute = [a|r|o|c]
4131 attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute]
Joe Hershberger25980902012-12-11 22:16:31 -06004132 entry = variable_name[:attributes]
4133 list = entry[,list]
4134
4135 The type attributes are:
4136 s - String (default)
4137 d - Decimal
4138 x - Hexadecimal
4139 b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
4140 i - IP address
4141 m - MAC address
4142
Joe Hershberger267541f2012-12-11 22:16:34 -06004143 The access attributes are:
4144 a - Any (default)
4145 r - Read-only
4146 o - Write-once
4147 c - Change-default
4148
Joe Hershberger25980902012-12-11 22:16:31 -06004149 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
4150 Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
4151 envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
4152
4153 - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
4154 Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
4155 should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
4156 environment variable. To override a setting in the static
4157 list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
4158 ".flags" variable.
4159
Joe Hershberger267541f2012-12-11 22:16:34 -06004160- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
4161 If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
4162 access flags.
4163
Simon Glass5c1a7ea2013-03-08 13:45:27 +00004164- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
4165 This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
4166 architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
4167 to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
4168 arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
4169 common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture
4170 must support it (i.e. must define __HAVE_ARCH_GENERIC_BOARD in
4171 its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
4172 your board please report the problem and send patches!
4173
Lokesh Vutla0b1b60c2013-04-17 20:49:40 +00004174- CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC (OMAP only)
4175 This is set by OMAP boards for the max time that reset should
4176 be asserted. See doc/README.omap-reset-time for details on how
4177 the value can be calulated on a given board.
Simon Glass632efa72013-03-11 07:06:48 +00004178
Gabe Black0d296cc2014-10-15 04:38:30 -06004179- CONFIG_USE_STDINT
4180 If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this
4181 option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when
4182 building U-Boot to enable this.
4183
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004184The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
4185of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
4186following configurations:
4187
Mike Frysingerc3eb3fe2011-07-08 10:44:25 +00004188- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
4189
4190 Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
4191 may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
4192
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD5a1aceb2008-09-10 22:48:04 +02004193- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004194
4195 Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
4196
4197 a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
4198 "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
4199 happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
4200 sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
4201 sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
4202 layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
4203 such a case you would place the environment in one of the
4204 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
4205 "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
4206 environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
4207 between U-Boot and the environment.
4208
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD0e8d1582008-09-10 22:48:06 +02004209 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004210
4211 Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
4212 beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
4213 type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
4214 for this sector is given here.
4215
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004216 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004217
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD0e8d1582008-09-10 22:48:06 +02004218 - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004219
4220 This is just another way to specify the start address of
4221 the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD0e8d1582008-09-10 22:48:06 +02004222 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004223
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD0e8d1582008-09-10 22:48:06 +02004224 - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004225
4226 Size of the sector containing the environment.
4227
4228
4229 b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
4230 In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
4231 the environment.
4232
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD0e8d1582008-09-10 22:48:06 +02004233 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004234
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD5a1aceb2008-09-10 22:48:04 +02004235 If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD0e8d1582008-09-10 22:48:06 +02004236 and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004237 of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
4238 memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
4239
4240 It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
4241 when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
4242 since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
4243 for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
4244 STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
4245 updating the environment in flash makes it always
4246 necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
4247 wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
4248 RAM, your target system will be dead.

4433
4434 Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
4435 can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
4436 block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than

4486 Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.
4487
4488 - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
4489
4490 Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
4491 be as following:
4492
4493 "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1)
4494 - "D:P": device D partition P. Error occurs if device D has no
4495 partition table.
4496 - "D:0": device D.
4497 - "D" or "D:": device D partition 1 if device D has partition
4498 table, or the whole device D if has no partition
4499 table.
4500 - "D:auto": first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
4501 If none, first valid paratition in device D. If no
4502 partition table then means device D.
4503
4504 - FAT_ENV_FILE:
4505
4506 It's a string of the FAT file name. This file use to store the
4507 envrionment.
4508

4515 environment.
4516
4517 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
4518
4519 Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
4520
4521 - CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
4522
4523 Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
4524 set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
4525 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
4526
4527 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
4528 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
4529
4530 These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
4531 area within the specified MMC device.
4532
Stephen Warren5c088ee2013-06-11 15:14:02 -06004533 If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
4534 the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
4535 as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
4536 your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
4537 different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
4538 environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
4539 maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
4540
Stephen Warren06e4ae52013-06-11 15:14:00 -06004541 These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
4542 MMC sector boundary.
4543
4544 - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
4545
4546 Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
4547 hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
4548 valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
4549 to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
4550
Stephen Warren5c088ee2013-06-11 15:14:02 -06004551 This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
4552 same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
4553
Stephen Warren06e4ae52013-06-11 15:14:00 -06004554 This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
4555 an MMC sector boundary.
4556
4557 - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
4558
4559 This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
4560 set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
4561 CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
4562
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004563- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004564
4565 Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
4566 area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
4567 is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
4568 scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
4569 calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
4570 to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
4571 start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
4572
Bruce Adlere881cb52007-11-02 13:15:42 -07004573Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004574has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
Wolfgang Denkcdb74972010-07-24 21:55:43 +02004575created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004576until then to read environment variables.
4577
wdenk85ec0bc2003-03-31 16:34:49 +00004578The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
4579is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
4580with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
4581necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
4582"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
4583have any device yet where we could complain.]
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00004584
4585Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
4586the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
wdenk85ec0bc2003-03-31 16:34:49 +00004587use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.

wdenk2535d602003-07-17 23:16:40 +00004628
wdenk42d1f032003-10-15 23:53:47 +00004629 Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
4630 and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of

Timur Tabie46fedf2011-08-04 18:03:41 -05004633- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
4634 Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
4635 PowerPC SOCs.
4636
4637- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
4638 Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically
4639 the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
4640
4641 CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
4642 for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
4643
4644- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
4645 Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new
4646 physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should
Wolfgang Denkc0f40852011-10-26 10:21:21 +00004647 be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the
Timur Tabie46fedf2011-08-04 18:03:41 -05004648 same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR
4649 is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended
4650 that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
4651
4652 #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
4653 * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
4654
4655- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
Wolfgang Denk4cf26092011-10-07 09:58:21 +02004656 Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically
4657 either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is
Timur Tabie46fedf2011-08-04 18:03:41 -05004658 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4659 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4660
4661- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
4662 Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is
4663 used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
4664 integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
4665
4666- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
4667 If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
4668 forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.

Wolfgang Denk553f0982010-10-26 13:32:32 +02004729 (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004730 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just

Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004864- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01004865 If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
4866 one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
4867 to something your driver can deal with.
Ben Warrenbb99ad62006-09-07 16:50:54 -04004868
York Sun1b3e3c42011-06-07 09:42:16 +08004869- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
4870 Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
4871 soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
4872 parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
4873 header files or board specific files.
4874
York Sun6f5e1dc2011-09-16 13:21:35 -07004875- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE

Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02004878- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01004879 Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
4880 be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.

wdenkc26e4542004-04-18 10:13:26 +00004882- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
4883 Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
4884
4885- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
4886 Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
wdenk6e592382004-04-18 17:39:38 +00004887 to the given FEC; i. e.
4888 #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
wdenkc26e4542004-04-18 10:13:26 +00004889 means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
4890
4891 When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
4892
4893- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
4894 The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
4895 (so program the FEC to ignore it).
4896
4897- CONFIG_RMII
4898 Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
4899 Note that this is a global option, we can't
4900 have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
4901
wdenk5cf91d62004-04-23 20:32:05 +00004902- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
4903 Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
4904 The syntax is:
4905
4906 => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
4907
4908 Where address/count indicate a memory area
4909 and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
4910 area should have.
4911
wdenk56523f12004-07-11 17:40:54 +00004912- CONFIG_LOOPW
4913 Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05004914 the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
wdenk56523f12004-07-11 17:40:54 +00004915
stroese7b466642004-12-16 18:46:55 +00004916- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
4917 Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
4918 "md/mw" commands.
4919 Examples:
4920
wdenkefe2a4d2004-12-16 21:44:03 +00004921 => mdc.b 10 4 500
stroese7b466642004-12-16 18:46:55 +00004922 This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
4923
wdenkefe2a4d2004-12-16 21:44:03 +00004924 => mwc.l 100 12345678 10
stroese7b466642004-12-16 18:46:55 +00004925 This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
4926
wdenkefe2a4d2004-12-16 21:44:03 +00004927 This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
Jon Loeliger602ad3b2007-06-11 19:03:39 -05004928 globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).

wdenk8aa1a2d2005-04-04 12:44:11 +00004930- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
Macpaul Linafc1ce82011-10-19 20:41:11 +00004931 [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
Wolfgang Denk844f07d2010-11-27 23:30:56 +01004932 low level initializations (like setting up the memory
4933 controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
4934 relocate itself into RAM.
wdenk8aa1a2d2005-04-04 12:44:11 +00004935
Wolfgang Denk844f07d2010-11-27 23:30:56 +01004936 Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
4937 exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
4938 other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
4939 these initializations itself.
wdenk8aa1a2d2005-04-04 12:44:11 +00004940
Aneesh V401bb302011-07-13 05:11:07 +00004941- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
Magnus Liljadf812382009-06-13 20:50:00 +02004942 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4943 that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
4944 compiling a NAND SPL.
wdenk400558b2005-04-02 23:52:25 +00004945
Ying Zhang3aa29de2013-08-16 15:16:15 +08004946- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
4947 Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
4948 that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
4949 It is loaded by the SPL.
4950
Ying Zhang5df572f2013-05-20 14:07:23 +08004951- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
4952 Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
4953 .resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
4954 previous 4k of the .text section.
4955
Simon Glass4213fc22013-02-24 17:33:14 +00004956- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
4957 Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
4958 effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
4959 U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
4960 to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
4961 it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
4962 addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
4963 to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
4964
Matthias Weisserd8834a12011-03-10 21:36:32 +00004965- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
4966 CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
4967 If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
4968 be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
4969 conditions but may increase the binary size.
4970
Simon Glass588a13f2013-02-14 04:18:54 +00004971- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
4972 If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
4973 needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
Gabe Blackb16f5212012-11-27 21:08:06 +00004974
Mark Jacksonfc337052013-03-04 01:27:20 +00004975- CONFIG_SYS_MPUCLK
4976 Defines the MPU clock speed (in MHz).

Timur Tabif2717b42011-11-22 09:21:25 -06004988Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
4989-----------------------------------
4990
4991The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
4992loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
4993This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
4994are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
4995within that device.
4996
Zhao Qiangdcf1d772014-03-21 16:21:44 +08004997- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
4998 The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located. The
4999 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
5000 is also specified.
5001
5002- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
5003 The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located. The
Timur Tabif2717b42011-11-22 09:21:25 -06005004 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
5005 is also specified.
5006
5007- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
5008 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format
5009 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
5010 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
5011 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
5012
5013- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
5014 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
5015 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
5016 virtual address in NOR flash.
5017
5018- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
5019 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
5020 CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
5021
5022- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
5023 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
5024 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
5025
5026- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
5027 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
5028 device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
5029
Liu Gang292dc6c2012-03-08 00:33:18 +00005030- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
5031 Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
5032 memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
Liu Gangfc54c7f2012-08-09 05:10:01 +00005033 can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
5034 window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
5035 master's memory space.

J. German Riverab940ca62014-06-23 15:15:55 -07005037Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
5038---------------------------------------------------------
5039The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
5040"firmware".
5041This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
5042are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
5043within that device.
5044
5045- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
5046 Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
5047
5048- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR
5049 The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The
5050 meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_xxx macro
5051 is also specified.
5052
5053- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_LENGTH
5054 The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format
5055 has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
5056 might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
5057 local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
5058
5059- CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_IN_NOR
5060 Specifies that MC firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
5061 normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
5062 virtual address in NOR flash.

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005064Building the Software:
5065======================
5066
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005067Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
5068and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
5069all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
5070(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
5071recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
5072which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005073
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005074If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
5075have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
5076you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
5077Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
5078necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005079
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005080 $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
5081 $ export CROSS_COMPILE
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005082
Peter Tyser2f8d3962009-03-13 18:54:51 -05005083Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
5084 the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
5085 (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
5086 toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example:
5087
5088 $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
5089
5090 Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
5091 be executed on computers running Windows.
5092
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005093U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
5094sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005095is done by typing:
5096
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +02005097 make NAME_defconfig
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005098

Michael Jones4d675ae2012-03-15 22:48:10 +00005100rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
wdenk54387ac2003-10-08 22:45:44 +00005101
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005102Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
5103 additional information is available from the board vendor; for
5104 instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
5105 or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02005106 when choosing the configuration, i. e.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005107
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +02005108 make TQM823L_defconfig
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005109 - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005110
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +02005111 make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005112 - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005116
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005117Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
5118images ready for download to / installation on your system:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005119
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005120- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
5121- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
5122- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005123
Marian Balakowiczbaf31242006-09-07 17:25:40 +02005124By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
5125in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
5126this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
5127
51281. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
5129
5130 make O=/tmp/build distclean
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +02005131 make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
Marian Balakowiczbaf31242006-09-07 17:25:40 +02005132 make O=/tmp/build all
5133
Timo Ketolaadbba992014-11-06 14:39:05 +020051342. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location:
Marian Balakowiczbaf31242006-09-07 17:25:40 +02005135
Timo Ketolaadbba992014-11-06 14:39:05 +02005136 export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build

Marian Balakowiczbaf31242006-09-07 17:25:40 +02005139 make all
5140
Timo Ketolaadbba992014-11-06 14:39:05 +02005141Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment
Marian Balakowiczbaf31242006-09-07 17:25:40 +02005142variable.
5143
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005144
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005145Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
5146for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005150If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
5151to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
5152steps:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005153
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +000051541. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
Michael Jones4d675ae2012-03-15 22:48:10 +00005155 "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
5156 Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +000051572. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
5158 files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
5159 the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
51603. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
5161 your board
51623. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
5163 directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +020051644. Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +000051655. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
5166 to be installed on your target system.
51676. Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
5168 [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005171Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
5172==============================================================
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005173
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005174If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
5175or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005176provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
5177the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005178official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005179
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005180But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
5181cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005182the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
5183just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005184for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
5185select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
5186environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
5187you can type
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005188
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005189 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005190
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005191or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005192
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005193 CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005194
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005195When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
5196U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
5197setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
5198built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
5199<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
5200location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
5201variable. For example:
Marian Balakowiczbaf31242006-09-07 17:25:40 +02005202
5203 export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
5204 export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
5205 CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
5206
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01005207With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
5208log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
5209during the whole build process.

5271
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005272Environment Variables:
5273======================
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005274
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005275U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
5276can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005277
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005278Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
5279"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
5280without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
5281environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
5282working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
5283environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.

Wolfgang Denkc96f86e2010-01-17 23:55:53 +01005285Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
5286
5287List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005288
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005289 baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005290
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005291 bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005292
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005293 bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005294
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005295 bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005296
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005297 bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005298
Bartlomiej Sieka7d721e32008-04-14 15:44:16 +02005299 bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5300 command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5301 a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
5302 for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
5303 environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
5304 also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
Grant Likelyc3624e62011-03-28 09:58:43 +00005305 kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
5306 bootm_mapsize.
5307
Wolfgang Denkc0f40852011-10-26 10:21:21 +00005308 bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
Grant Likelyc3624e62011-03-28 09:58:43 +00005309 This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
5310 defines the size of the memory region starting at base
5311 address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
5312 during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
5313 as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
5314 used otherwise.
Bartlomiej Sieka7d721e32008-04-14 15:44:16 +02005315
5316 bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
5317 command can be restricted. This variable is given as
5318 a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
5319 allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
5320 environment variable.
5321
Bartlomiej Sieka4bae9092008-10-01 15:26:31 +02005322 updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
5323 by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
5324 documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
5325
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005326 autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
5327 "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
5328 configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
5329 load any image using TFTP
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005330
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005331 autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
5332 "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
5333 be automatically started (by internally calling
5334 "bootm")
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005335
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005336 If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
5337 "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
5338 (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
5339 This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
5340 data.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005341
David A. Longa28afca2011-07-09 16:40:19 -04005342 fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the
5343 flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
Shawn Guofa34f6b2012-01-09 21:54:08 +00005344 For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
5345 at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
5346 only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
5347 may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
5348 device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
5349 of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
5350 access it during the boot procedure.
5351
David A. Longa28afca2011-07-09 16:40:19 -04005352 If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
5353 the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this
5354 to work it must reside in writable memory, have
5355 sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
5356 add the information it needs into it, and the memory
5357 must be accessible by the kernel.
5358
Simon Glasseea63e02011-10-24 19:15:34 +00005359 fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
5360 device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
5361 defined.
5362
wdenk17ea1172004-06-06 21:51:03 +00005363 i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
5364 if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
5365 mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
5366 initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
5367 it must be saved and board must be reset.
5368
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005369 initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images:
5370 If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
5371 copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
5372 is usually what you want since it allows for
5373 maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
5374 make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02005375 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005376 variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
5377 Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
5378 address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
5379 does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005380
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005381 For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
5382 RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
5383 you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
5384 the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
5385 sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
5386 12 MB as well - this can be done with
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005387
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005388 setenv initrd_high 00c00000
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005389
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005390 If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
5391 indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
5392 for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
5393 memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
5394 ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
5395 boot time on your system, but requires that this
5396 feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
wdenk4a6fd342003-04-12 23:38:12 +00005397

Matthias Fuchse1692572008-01-17 07:45:05 +01005423 ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
5424 available network interfaces.
5425 It just stays at the currently selected interface.
5426
Wolfgang Denkc96f86e2010-01-17 23:55:53 +01005427 netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005428 either succeed or fail without retrying.
5429 When set to "once" the network operation will
5430 fail when all the available network interfaces
5431 are tried once without success.
5432 Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
5433 themselves.

Simon Glass8d51aac2013-07-16 20:10:00 -07005437 silent_linux - If set then linux will be told to boot silently, by
5438 changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
5439 made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
5440 unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
5441 is silent.
5442
Wolfgang Denk28cb9372005-09-24 23:25:46 +02005443 tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's

5445
Wolfgang Denk28cb9372005-09-24 23:25:46 +02005446 tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
5447 destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
5448
Wolfgang Denkc96f86e2010-01-17 23:55:53 +01005449 tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
5450 we use the TFTP server's default block size
5451
5452 tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
5453 seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
5454 when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
5455 be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
5456 Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
5457 faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
5458 with unreliable TFTP servers.

Jason Hobbsdc0b7b02011-08-31 05:37:28 +00005464The following image location variables contain the location of images
5465used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
5466not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
5467variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
5468server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
5469loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
5470flash or offset in NAND flash.
5471
5472*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
5473boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
5474boards use these variables for other purposes.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005483The following environment variables may be used and automatically
5484updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
5485depending the information provided by your boot server:
wdenka3d991b2004-04-15 21:48:45 +00005486
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005487 bootfile - see above
5488 dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server
5489 dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
5490 gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
5491 hostname - Target hostname
5492 ipaddr - see above
5493 netmask - Subnet Mask
5494 rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
5495 serverip - see above

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005498There are two special Environment Variables:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005499
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005500 serial# - contains hardware identification information such
5501 as type string and/or serial number
5502 ethaddr - Ethernet address
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005503
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005504These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
5505the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
5506once they have been set once.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005507
5508
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005509Further special Environment Variables:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005510
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005511 ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
5512 with the "version" command. This variable is
5513 readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).

Joe Hershberger170ab112012-12-11 22:16:24 -06005520Callback functions for environment variables:
5521---------------------------------------------
5522
5523For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
5524when their values are changed. This functionailty allows functions to
5525be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or
5526deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
5527effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
5528
5529The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
5530U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
5531
5532These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The
5533static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
5534in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
5535associations. The list must be in the following format:
5536
5537 entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
5538 list = entry[,list]
5539
5540If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
5541Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
5542
5543Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
5544with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will
5545override any association in the static list. You can define
5546CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
5547".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment.
5548

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005550Command Line Parsing:
5551=====================
stroesec1551ea2003-04-04 15:53:41 +00005552
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005553There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
5554the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
stroesec1551ea2003-04-04 15:53:41 +00005555
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005556Old, simple command line parser:
5557--------------------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005558
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005559- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
5560- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
Wolfgang Denkfe126d82005-11-20 21:40:11 +01005561- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005562- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
5563 for example:
Wolfgang Denkfe126d82005-11-20 21:40:11 +01005564 setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005565- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
5566 setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005567
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005568Hush shell:
5569-----------
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005570
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005571- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
5572 if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
5573 until...do...done, ...
5574- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
5575 commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
5576 "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
5577 command
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005578
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005579General rules:
5580--------------
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005581
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005582(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
5583 command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
5584 one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
5585 executed anyway.
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005586
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005587(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02005588 calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005589 command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
5590 variables are not executed.
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005591
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005592Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
5593=======================================
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005594
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02005595Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005596such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
5597"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005598
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005599Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
5600MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
5601"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005602
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005603If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
5604in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
5605ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
5606variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
wdenkf07771c2003-05-28 08:06:31 +00005607
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005608o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
5609 environment, the SROM's address is used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005610
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005611o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
5612 environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
5613 used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005614
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005615o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
5616 both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005617
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005618o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
5619 addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
5620 warning is printed.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005621
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005622o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
5623 is raised.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005624
Ben Warrenecee9322010-04-26 11:11:46 -07005625If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
Wolfgang Denkc0f40852011-10-26 10:21:21 +00005626will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This
Ben Warrenecee9322010-04-26 11:11:46 -07005627may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
5628The naming convention is as follows:
5629"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005630

5632==============
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005633
Marian Balakowicz3310c542008-03-12 12:13:13 +01005634U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
5635images in two formats:
5636
5637New uImage format (FIT)
5638-----------------------
5639
5640Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
5641to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
5642components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
5643SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
5644
5645
5646Old uImage format
5647-----------------
5648
5649Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
5650preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
5651details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005672Linux Support:
5673==============
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005674
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005675Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
5676easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
5677U-Boot.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005678
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005679U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
5680special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
5681"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
5682instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
5683serves several purposes:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005684
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005685- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
5686 applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
5687 Flash memory footprint)
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005688
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005689- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
5690 lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005691
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005692- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
5693 images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
5694 be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
5695 have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
5696 change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
5697 software is easier now.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005706U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
5707configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
5708(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005713Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
5714include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
Markus Heidelberg1dc30692008-09-07 20:18:27 +02005715Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
5716and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02005717as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.

Simon Glass2eb31b12014-06-11 23:29:46 -06005719Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
5720If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
5721is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
5722doc/driver-model.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005725Configuring the Linux kernel:
5726-----------------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005727
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005728No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
5729device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005730
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005731
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005732Building a Linux Image:
5733-----------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005734
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005735With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
5736not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
5737"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
5738U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
5739which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
5740100% compatible format.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005741
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005742Example:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005743
Holger Freytherab584d62014-08-04 09:26:05 +02005744 make TQM850L_defconfig
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005745 make oldconfig
5746 make dep
5747 make uImage
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005748
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005749The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
5750encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information,
5751CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005752
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005753* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005754
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005755* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005756
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005757 ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
5758 -R .note -R .comment \
5759 -S vmlinux linux.bin
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005760
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005761* compress the binary image:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005762
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005763 gzip -9 linux.bin
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005764
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005765* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005766
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005767 mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
5768 -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
5769 -d linux.bin.gz uImage
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005770
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005771
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005772The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
5773with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
5774combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
5775byte header containing information about target architecture,
5776operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
5777stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005778
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005779"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
5780print the header information, or to build new images.
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005781
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005782In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
5783contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
5784checksum verification:
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005785
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005786 tools/mkimage -l image
5787 -l ==> list image header information
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005788
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005789The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
5790from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005791
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005792 tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
5793 -n name -d data_file image
5794 -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
5795 -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
5796 -T ==> set image type to 'type'
5797 -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
5798 -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
5799 -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
5800 -n ==> set image name to 'name'
5801 -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
wdenk24ee89b2002-11-03 17:56:27 +00005802
wdenk69459792004-05-29 16:53:29 +00005803Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
5804address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
5805kernel version:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005806
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005807- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
5808- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005809
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005810So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005811

5865option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
5866option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
5867from the image:

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005874Installing a Linux Image:
5875-------------------------
wdenkdb01a2e2004-04-15 23:14:49 +00005876
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005877To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
5878you must convert the image to S-Record format:
wdenkdb01a2e2004-04-15 23:14:49 +00005879
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005880 objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
wdenkdb01a2e2004-04-15 23:14:49 +00005881
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00005882The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
5883image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
5884address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
5885specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
5886command.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00005887

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006054More About U-Boot Image Types:
6055------------------------------
wdenk6069ff22003-02-28 00:49:47 +00006056
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006057U-Boot supports the following image types:
wdenk6069ff22003-02-28 00:49:47 +00006058
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006059 "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
6060 provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
6061 well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
6062 the Standalone Program.
6063 "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
6064 will take over control completely. Usually these programs
6065 will install their own set of exception handlers, device
6066 drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
6067 expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
6068 "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
6069 parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
6070 being started.
6071 "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
6072 (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
6073 RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
6074 to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
6075 server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
6076 for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
stroesec1551ea2003-04-04 15:53:41 +00006077
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006078 "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
6079 image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
6080 byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
6081 Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
6082 one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
6083 a multiple of 4 bytes).
stroesec1551ea2003-04-04 15:53:41 +00006084
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006085 "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
6086 U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
6087 flash memory.
stroesec1551ea2003-04-04 15:53:41 +00006088
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006089 "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
6090 U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
6091 useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
6092 as command interpreter.

Marek Vasut44f074c2012-03-14 21:52:45 +00006094Booting the Linux zImage:
6095-------------------------
6096
6097On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
6098using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
6099as the syntax of "bootm" command.
6100
Tom Rini8ac28562013-05-16 11:40:11 -04006101Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
Marek Vasut017e1f32012-03-18 11:47:58 +00006102kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
6103address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
6104format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".

6108=================
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006109
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006110One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
6111run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
6112U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006113
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006114Two simple examples are included with the sources:

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006119'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
6120application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
6121It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
6122like that:

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006148Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
6149handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
6150Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
6151The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
6152character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
6153controlled by the following keys:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006154
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006155 ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers

6217=============
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006218
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006219Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
6220(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006221
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006222Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
6223NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
6224need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
6225Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
6226attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
6227missing. This file has to be installed and patched manually:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006228
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006229 # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
6230 # mkdir powerpc
6231 # ln -s powerpc machine
6232 # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
6233 # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006234
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006235Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
6236and U-Boot include files.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006237
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006238Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
6239stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
6240proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
6241tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006248The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
6249implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
6250inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
6251hardware.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006254Initial Stack, Global Data:
6255---------------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006256
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006257The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
6258starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
6259system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
6260This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
6261is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
6262at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
6263options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
6264models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
6265MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
6266locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006276 Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
6277 is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
6278 require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
6279 is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
6280 necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02006281 beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006282 can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
6283 operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006285 OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
6286 is another option for the system designer to use as an
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02006287 initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006288 option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
6289 board designers haven't used it for something that would
6290 cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
6291 used.
wdenk43d96162003-03-06 00:02:04 +00006292
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02006293 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006294 with your processor/board/system design. The default value
6295 you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
Stefan Roese8a316c92005-08-01 16:49:12 +02006296 walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006297 than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
6298 it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
6299 that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
6300 start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
6301 you get the config right.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006306It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
6307code for the initialization procedures:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006308
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006309* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
6310 to write it.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006311
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02006312* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006313 as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
6314 zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006315
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006316* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
6317 that.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006318
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006319Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
6320normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
6321turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
6322simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
6323functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
6324functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
6325the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
6326place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
6327reserve for this purpose.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006328
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006329When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
6330relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by
6331GCC's implementation.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006332
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006333For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
6334 R1: stack pointer
Wolfgang Denke7670f62008-02-14 22:43:22 +01006335 R2: reserved for system use
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006336 R3-R4: parameter passing and return values
6337 R5-R10: parameter passing
6338 R13: small data area pointer
6339 R30: GOT pointer
6340 R31: frame pointer
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006341
Joakim Tjernlunde6bee802010-01-19 14:41:58 +01006342 (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
6343 is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
6344 going back and forth between asm and C)

wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006347
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006348 Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
6349 address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
6350 but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
6351 smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
6352 average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
6353 624 text + 127 data).

6381 Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp

Wolfgang Denkd87080b2006-03-31 18:32:53 +02006398NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
6399or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006401Memory Management:
6402------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006403
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006404U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
6405MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006406
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006407The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
6408controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
6409memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
6410physical memory banks.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006411
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006412U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
6413TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
6414booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
6415to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD6d0f6bc2008-10-16 15:01:15 +02006416memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006417configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
6418Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006419
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006420Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
6421of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006422
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006423So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
6424this:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006425
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006426 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code
6427 :
6428 0x0000 1FFF
6429 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use
6430 :
6431 :
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006432

6435 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
6436 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
6437 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena
6438 :
6439 0x00FD FFFF
6440 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code
6441 ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
6442 ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
6443 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM]

6445
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006446System Initialization:
6447----------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006448
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006449In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
Marcel Ziswiler11ccc332008-07-09 08:17:15 +02006450(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006451configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
6452To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
6453To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
6454initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
6455which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
6456part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
6457the caches and the SIU.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006458
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006459Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
6460preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
6461(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
6462on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
6463programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
6464simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
6465banks.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006466
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006467When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
6468different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
6469bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
64700x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
6471contiguous memory starting from 0.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006472
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006473Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
6474and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
6475Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
6476pages, and the final stack is set up.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006477
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006478Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
6479until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
6480running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
6481new address in RAM.

wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006558Coding Standards:
6559-----------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006560
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006561All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
Detlev Zundel2c051652006-09-01 15:39:02 +02006562coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
Wolfgang Denk7ca92962011-07-27 10:59:55 +00006563"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006564
Detlev Zundel2c051652006-09-01 15:39:02 +02006565Source files originating from a different project (for example the
6566MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
6567reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
6568sources.
6569
6570Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
6571Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
6572in your code.
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006573
6574Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
6575- remove any trailing white space
Wolfgang Denk7ca92962011-07-27 10:59:55 +00006576- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006577- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
Wolfgang Denk7ca92962011-07-27 10:59:55 +00006578- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006579- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
6580
6581Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
6582with a request to reformat the changes.

6586-------------------
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006587
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006588Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
6589establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
6590may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006591
Magnus Lilja0d28f342008-08-06 19:32:33 +02006592Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01006593
Wolfgang Denk06682362008-12-30 22:56:11 +01006594Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
6595see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
6596
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006597When you send a patch, please include the following information with
6598it:
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006599
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006600* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
6601 this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
6602 patch actually fixes something.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006603
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006604* For new features: a description of the feature and your
6605 implementation.
wdenkc6097192002-11-03 00:24:07 +00006606
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006607* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
6608
6609* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
6610
Albert ARIBAUD27af9302013-09-11 15:52:51 +02006611* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
6612 maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006613
6614* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
6615 document these in the README file.
6616
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01006617* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
6618 recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
Wolfgang Denk7ca92962011-07-27 10:59:55 +00006619 "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01006620 the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
6621 with some other mail clients.
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006622
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01006623 If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
6624 diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
6625 GNU diff.
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006626
Wolfgang Denk218ca722008-03-26 10:40:12 +01006627 The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
6628 directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
6629 your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
6630 affected files).
6631
6632 We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
6633 and compressed attachments must not be used.
wdenk2729af92004-05-03 20:45:30 +00006634
6635* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
6636 files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
6637
6638* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
6639 submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
6640
6641
6642Notes:
6643
6644* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
6645 source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
6646 for any of the boards.
6647
6648* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
6649 containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
6650 returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
6651
6652* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
6653 add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
6654 When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
6655 (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
6656 disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
6657 modification.
wdenk90dc6702005-05-03 14:12:25 +00006658
Wolfgang Denk06682362008-12-30 22:56:11 +01006659* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
6660 u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
6661 reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
6662 bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
