  23. Summary:
  24. ========
  25. This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
  26. Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
  27. processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
  28. initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
  29. code.
  30. The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
  31. the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
  32. header files in common, and special provision has been made to
  33. support booting of Linux images.
  34. Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
  35. configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
  36. implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
  37. add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
  38. code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
  39. load and run it dynamically.
  40. Status:
  41. =======
  42. In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
  43. Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
  44. "working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.
  45. In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out
  46. who contributed the specific port. The MAINTAINERS file lists board
  47. maintainers.
  48. Where to get help:
  49. ==================
  50. In case you have questions about, problems with or contributions for
  51. U-Boot you should send a message to the U-Boot mailing list at
  52. <u-boot@lists.denx.de>. There is also an archive of previous traffic
  53. on the mailing list - please search the archive before asking FAQ's.
  54. Please see http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot and
  55. http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot
  56. Where to get source code:
  57. =========================
  58. The U-Boot source code is maintained in the git repository at
  59. git://www.denx.de/git/u-boot.git ; you can browse it online at
  60. http://www.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=summary
  61. The "snapshot" links on this page allow you to download tarballs of
  62. any version you might be interested in. Official releases are also
  63. available for FTP download from the ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/
  64. directory.
  65. Pre-built (and tested) images are available from
  66. ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/images/
  67. Where we come from:
  68. ===================
  69. - start from 8xxrom sources
  70. - create PPCBoot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/ppcboot)
  71. - clean up code
  72. - make it easier to add custom boards
  73. - make it possible to add other [PowerPC] CPUs
  74. - extend functions, especially:
  75. * Provide extended interface to Linux boot loader
  76. * S-Record download
  77. * network boot
  78. * PCMCIA / CompactFlash / ATA disk / SCSI ... boot
  79. - create ARMBoot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/armboot)
  80. - add other CPU families (starting with ARM)
  81. - create U-Boot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/u-boot)
  82. - current project page: see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot
  83. Names and Spelling:
  84. ===================
  85. The "official" name of this project is "Das U-Boot". The spelling
  86. "U-Boot" shall be used in all written text (documentation, comments
  87. in source files etc.). Example:
  88. This is the README file for the U-Boot project.
  89. File names etc. shall be based on the string "u-boot". Examples:
  90. include/asm-ppc/u-boot.h
  91. #include <asm/u-boot.h>
  92. Variable names, preprocessor constants etc. shall be either based on
  93. the string "u_boot" or on "U_BOOT". Example:
  94. U_BOOT_VERSION u_boot_logo
  95. IH_OS_U_BOOT u_boot_hush_start
  96. Versioning:
  97. ===========
  98. Starting with the release in October 2008, the names of the releases
  99. were changed from numerical release numbers without deeper meaning
  100. into a time stamp based numbering. Regular releases are identified by
  101. names consisting of the calendar year and month of the release date.
  102. Additional fields (if present) indicate release candidates or bug fix
  103. releases in "stable" maintenance trees.
  104. Examples:
  105. U-Boot v2009.11 - Release November 2009
  106. U-Boot v2009.11.1 - Release 1 in version November 2009 stable tree
  107. U-Boot v2010.09-rc1 - Release candiate 1 for September 2010 release

  198. Software Configuration:
  199. =======================
  200. Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
  201. rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
  202. There are two classes of configuration variables:
  203. * Configuration _OPTIONS_:
  204. These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
  205. "CONFIG_".
  206. * Configuration _SETTINGS_:
  207. These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
  208. you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
  209. "CONFIG_SYS_".
  210. Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
  211. identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
  212. do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
  213. links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
  214. as an example here.
  215. Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
  216. ---------------------------------------------------
  217. For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
  218. configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
  219. Example: For a TQM823L module type:
  220. cd u-boot
  221. make TQM823L_config
  222. For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
  223. e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
  224. directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
  225. Configuration Options:
  226. ----------------------
  227. Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
  228. such information is kept in a configuration file
  229. "include/configs/<board_name>.h".
  230. Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
  231. "include/configs/TQM823L.h".
  232. Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
  233. kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
  234. build a config tool - later.
  235. The following options need to be configured:
  236. - CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
  237. - Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
  238. - CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
  239. Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
  240. - CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
  241. Define exactly one of
  242. CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
  243. --- FIXME --- not tested yet:
  244. CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
  245. CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
  246. - Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
  247. Define exactly one of
  248. CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
  249. - Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
  250. Define one or more of
  251. CONFIG_CMA302
  252. - Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
  253. Define one or more of
  254. CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on
  255. the LCD display every second with
  256. a "rotator" |\-/|\-/
  257. - Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined)
  258. CONFIG_ADSTYPE
  259. Possible values are:
  260. CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS - original MPC8260ADS
  261. CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS - MPC8266ADS
  262. CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS - PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR
  263. CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS - MPC8272ADS
  264. - Marvell Family Member
  265. CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable
  266. multiple fs option at one time
  267. for marvell soc family
  268. - MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
  269. Define exactly one of
  270. CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
  271. - 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
  272. CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if
  273. get_gclk_freq() cannot work
  274. e.g. if there is no 32KHz
  275. reference PIT/RTC clock
  276. CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
  277. or XTAL/EXTAL)
  278. - 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
  279. CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
  280. CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
  281. CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
  282. See doc/README.MPC866
  283. CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
  284. Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
  285. of relying on the correctness of the configured
  286. values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
  287. the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
  288. that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
  289. RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
  290. CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
  291. Define this option if you want to enable the
  292. ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
  293. - 85xx CPU Options:
  294. CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
  295. Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
  296. the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
  297. compliance, among other possible reasons.
  298. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
  299. Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
  300. system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
  301. devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
  302. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
  303. Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
  304. tree nodes for the given platform.
  305. CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
  306. Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
  307. around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
  308. support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
  309. breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this
  310. symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
  311. purpose.
  312. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
  313. Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set,
  314. then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
  315. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
  316. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
  317. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
  318. Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
  319. for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
  320. The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
  321. of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
  322. p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
  323. whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
  324. See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
  325. this erratum.
  326. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
  327. This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
  328. according to the A004510 workaround.
  329. - Generic CPU options:
  330. CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
  331. Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
  332. values is arch specific.
  333. - Intel Monahans options:
  334. CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO
  335. Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator
  336. ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core
  337. frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz.
  338. CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO
  339. Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator
  340. ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and
  341. 2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied
  342. by this value.
  343. - MIPS CPU options:
  344. CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET
  345. Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack
  346. pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before
  347. relocation.
  348. CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE
  349. Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU.
  350. See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h.
  351. Possible values are:
  352. CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA
  353. CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA
  354. CONF_CM_UNCACHED
  355. CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT
  356. CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE
  357. CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW
  358. CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW
  359. CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
  360. CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
  361. Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
  362. See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
  363. CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
  364. Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
  365. XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
  366. be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
  367. - ARM options:
  368. CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
  369. Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
  370. clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
  371. CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
  372. Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
  373. set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
  374. better code density. For ARM architectures that support
  375. Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
  376. GCC.
  377. - Linux Kernel Interface:
  378. CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
  379. U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
  380. internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
  381. kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
  382. bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
  383. "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
  384. converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
  385. Linux kernel.
  386. When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
  387. "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
  388. default environment.
  389. CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only]
  390. When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions
  391. expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
  392. Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
  393. CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
  394. New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
  395. passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
  396. concepts).
  397. CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
  398. * New libfdt-based support
  399. * Adds the "fdt" command
  400. * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
  401. OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
  402. MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
  403. OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
  404. MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
  405. OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
  406. OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
  407. boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
  408. addresses
  409. CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
  410. Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
  411. to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
  412. CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU
  413. This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
  414. param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
  415. CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
  416. U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
  417. If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
  418. removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
  419. so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
  420. crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
  421. no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
  422. CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
  423. This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
  424. machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
  425. number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
  426. (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
  427. Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
  428. in a single configuration file and the machine type is
  429. runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
  430. - vxWorks boot parameters:
  431. bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
  432. environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
  433. It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
  434. CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
  435. CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
  436. CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
  437. CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
  438. CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
  439. Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
  440. Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
  441. the defaults discussed just above.
  442. - Cache Configuration:
  443. CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
  444. CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
  445. CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
  446. - Cache Configuration for ARM:
  447. CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
  448. controller
  449. CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
  450. controller register space
  451. - Serial Ports:
  452. CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
  453. Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
  454. CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
  455. Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
  456. CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
  457. If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
  458. the clock speed of the UARTs.
  459. CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
  460. If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
  461. define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
  462. port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
  463. CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
  464. Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
  465. have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set
  466. this variable to initialize the extra register.
  467. CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
  468. On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
  469. boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this
  470. variable to flush the UART at init time.
  471. - Console Interface:
  472. Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
  473. (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
  474. CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
  475. console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
  476. Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
  477. port routines must be defined elsewhere
  478. (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
  479. CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
  480. Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
  481. defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
  482. VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation
  483. (default big endian)
  484. VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL graphic chip supports
  485. rectangle fill
  486. (cf. smiLynxEM)
  487. VIDEO_HW_BITBLT graphic chip supports
  488. bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
  489. VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns
  490. (cols=pitch)
  491. VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows
  492. VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE bytes per pixel
  493. VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT graphic data format
  494. (0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
  495. VIDEO_FB_ADRS framebuffer address
  496. VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct
  497. (i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
  498. VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct
  499. (i.e. i8042_tstc)
  500. VIDEO_GETC_FCT get char fct
  501. (i.e. i8042_getc)
  502. CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR cursor drawing on/off
  503. (requires blink timer
  504. cf. i8042.c)
  505. CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)
  506. CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME display time/date info in
  507. upper right corner
  508. (requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)
  509. CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in
  510. upper left corner
  511. CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of
  512. linux_logo.h for logo.
  513. Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
  514. CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
  515. additional board info beside
  516. the logo
  517. When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
  518. a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
  519. erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
  520. When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
  521. default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
  522. environment 'console=serial'.
  523. When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
  524. messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
  525. the "silent" environment variable. See
  526. doc/README.silent for more information.
  527. - Console Baudrate:
  528. CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
  529. Select one of the baudrates listed in
  530. CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
  531. CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
  532. - Console Rx buffer length
  533. With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
  534. the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
  535. This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
  536. If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
  537. must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
  538. the SMC.
  539. - Pre-Console Buffer:
  540. Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
  541. initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
  542. Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
  543. buffer any console messages prior to the console being
  544. initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
  545. bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
  546. a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
  547. bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
  548. earlier bytes are discarded.
  549. 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
  550. CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
  551. - Safe printf() functions
  552. Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
  553. the printf() functions. These are defined in
  554. include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
  555. so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
  556. If this option is not given then these functions will
  557. silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
  558. you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
  559. - Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
  560. Delay before automatically booting the default image;
  561. set to -1 to disable autoboot.
  562. set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
  563. (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
  564. See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
  565. work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
  566. CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
  567. CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
  568. CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
  569. CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
  570. CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
  571. CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
  572. CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
  573. CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
  574. CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
  575. CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
  576. - Autoboot Command:
  577. CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
  578. Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
  579. define a command string that is automatically executed
  580. when no character is read on the console interface
  581. within "Boot Delay" after reset.
  582. CONFIG_BOOTARGS
  583. This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
  584. command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
  585. environment value "bootargs".
  586. CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
  587. The value of these goes into the environment as
  588. "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
  589. as a convenience, when switching between booting from
  590. RAM and NFS.
  591. - Pre-Boot Commands:
  592. CONFIG_PREBOOT
  593. When this option is #defined, the existence of the
  594. environment variable "preboot" will be checked
  595. immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
  596. countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
  597. entering interactive mode.
  598. This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
  599. automatically generated or modified. For an example
  600. see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
  601. modified when the user holds down a certain
  602. combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
  603. booting the systems
  604. - Serial Download Echo Mode:
  605. CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
  606. If defined to 1, all characters received during a
  607. serial download (using the "loads" command) are
  608. echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
  609. emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
  610. time on others. This setting #define's the initial
  611. value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
  612. - Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
  613. CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
  614. Select one of the baudrates listed in
  615. CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.

  717. Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
  718. (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
  719. what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
  720. cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
  721. 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
  722. uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
  723. systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
  724. initial stack and some data.
  725. XXX - this list needs to get updated!
  726. - Device tree:
  727. CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
  728. If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
  729. to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
  730. compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
  731. experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
  732. tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
  733. U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
  734. be done using one of the two options below:
  735. CONFIG_OF_EMBED
  736. If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
  737. binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
  738. board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
  739. is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
  740. the global data structure as gd->blob.
  741. CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
  742. If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
  743. binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
  744. code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
  745. cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
  746. and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
  747. u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
  748. still use the individual files if you need something more
  749. exotic.
  750. - Watchdog:
  751. CONFIG_WATCHDOG
  752. If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
  753. support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
  754. specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
  755. CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
  756. register. When supported for a specific SoC is
  757. available, then no further board specific code should
  758. be needed to use it.
  759. CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
  760. When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
  761. SoC, then define this variable and provide board
  762. specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
  763. - U-Boot Version:
  764. CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
  765. If this variable is defined, an environment variable
  766. named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
  767. version as printed by the "version" command.
  768. Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
  769. next reset.
  770. - Real-Time Clock:
  771. When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
  772. has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
  773. following options:
  774. CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx
  775. CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC
  776. CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
  777. CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC
  778. CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
  779. CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
  780. CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
  781. CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC
  782. CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
  783. CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
  784. CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
  785. CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on
  786. RV3029 RTC.
  787. Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
  788. must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
  789. - GPIO Support:
  790. CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
  791. CONFIG_PCA953X_INFO - enable pca953x info command
  792. The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
  793. chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
  794. pins supported by a particular chip.
  795. Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
  796. must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
  797. - Timestamp Support:
  798. When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
  799. (date and time) of an image is printed by image
  800. commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
  801. automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
  802. - Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
  803. Zero or more of the following:
  804. CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table.
  805. CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
  806. Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
  807. CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
  808. CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
  809. bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see
  810. disk/part_efi.c
  811. CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table.
  812. If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
  813. CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
  814. least one non-MTD partition type as well.
  815. - IDE Reset method:
  816. CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
  817. board configurations files but used nowhere!
  818. CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
  819. be performed by calling the function
  820. ide_set_reset(int reset)
  821. which has to be defined in a board specific file
  822. - ATAPI Support:
  823. CONFIG_ATAPI
  824. Set this to enable ATAPI support.
  825. - LBA48 Support
  826. CONFIG_LBA48
  827. Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
  828. Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
  829. Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
  830. support disks up to 2.1TB.
  831. CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
  832. When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
  833. Default is 32bit.
  834. - SCSI Support:
  835. At the moment only there is only support for the
  836. SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
  837. CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
  838. CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
  839. CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
  840. CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
  841. maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
  842. devices.
  843. CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
  844. The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
  845. SCSI devices found during the last scan.
  846. - NETWORK Support (PCI):
  847. CONFIG_E1000
  848. Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips.
  849. CONFIG_E1000_SPI
  850. Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x.
  851. This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one
  852. of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC.
  853. CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC
  854. Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for
  855. example with the "sspi" command.
  856. CONFIG_CMD_E1000
  857. Management command for E1000 devices. When used on devices
  858. with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot.
  859. CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC
  860. default MAC for empty EEPROM after production.
  861. CONFIG_EEPRO100
  862. Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips.
  863. Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM
  864. write routine for first time initialisation.
  865. CONFIG_TULIP
  866. Support for Digital 2114x chips.
  867. Optional CONFIG_TULIP_SELECT_MEDIA for board specific
  868. modem chip initialisation (KS8761/QS6611).
  869. CONFIG_NATSEMI
  870. Support for National dp83815 chips.
  871. CONFIG_NS8382X

  907. Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY.
  908. Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY.
  909. If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur
  910. wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or
  911. useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit
  912. control registers. This behavior won't affect the
  913. correctnessof 10/100 link speed update.
  914. CONFIG_SMC911X

  935. Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device
  936. per system is supported at this time.
  937. CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS
  938. Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped
  939. to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at
  940. 0xfed40000.
  941. - USB Support:
  942. At the moment only the UHCI host controller is
  943. supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define
  944. CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it.
  945. define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard
  946. and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB
  947. storage devices.
  948. Note:
  949. Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
  950. (TEAC FD-05PUB).
  951. MPC5200 USB requires additional defines:

  963. instead of using asynchronous interrupts
  964. CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
  965. txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
  966. - USB Device:
  967. Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
  968. Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
  969. command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
  970. attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
  971. it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
  972. can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
  973. appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
  974. Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
  975. If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
  976. a Linux host by
  977. # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
  978. else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
  979. variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
  980. might be defined in YourBoardName.h
  981. CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
  982. Define this to build a UDC device
  983. CONFIG_USB_TTY
  984. Define this to have a tty type of device available to
  985. talk to the UDC device
  986. CONFIG_USBD_HS
  987. Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
  988. device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
  989. int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
  990. also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
  991. whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
  992. speed.
  993. CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
  994. Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
  995. be set to usbtty.
  996. mpc8xx:
  997. CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH
  998. Derive USB clock from external clock "blah"
  999. - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02
  1000. CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH
  1001. Derive USB clock from brgclk
  1002. - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
  1003. If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
  1004. define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
  1005. or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
  1006. CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
  1007. CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
  1008. should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
  1009. CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
  1010. Define this string as the name of your company for
  1011. - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
  1012. CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
  1013. Define this string as the name of your product
  1014. - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
  1015. CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
  1016. Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
  1017. Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
  1018. to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
  1019. - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
  1020. CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
  1021. Define this as the unique Product ID
  1022. for your device
  1023. - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
  1024. - ULPI Layer Support:
  1025. The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
  1026. the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
  1027. via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
  1028. the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
  1029. viewport is supported.
  1030. To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
  1031. CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
  1032. If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
  1033. standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
  1034. the appropriate value in Hz.
  1035. - MMC Support:
  1036. The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
  1037. enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
  1038. accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
  1039. to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
  1040. enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
  1041. the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.

  1049. CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
  1050. CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
  1051. Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
  1052. CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
  1053. CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
  1054. Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
  1055. CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
  1056. Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
  1057. function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
  1058. If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
  1059. #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1
  1060. to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
  1061. have not defined a custom partition
  1062. - FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
  1063. CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
  1064. Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
  1065. file in FAT formatted partition.
  1066. This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
  1067. user to write files to FAT.
  1068. CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
  1069. CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
  1070. Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
  1071. filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
  1072. and cbfsload.
  1073. - Keyboard Support:
  1074. CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
  1075. Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
  1076. support
  1077. CONFIG_I8042_KBD
  1078. Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
  1079. GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
  1080. Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
  1081. for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
  1082. - Video support:
  1083. CONFIG_VIDEO
  1084. Define this to enable video support (for output to
  1085. video).
  1086. CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
  1087. Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
  1088. CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
  1089. Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
  1090. video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
  1091. (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
  1092. assumed.
  1093. For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
  1094. selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
  1095. are possible:
  1096. - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
  1097. Following standard modes are supported (* is default):
  1098. Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
  1099. -------------+---------------------------------------------
  1100. 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307
  1101. 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319
  1102. 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A
  1103. 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B
  1104. -------------+---------------------------------------------
  1105. (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
  1106. - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
  1107. from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
  1108. CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
  1109. Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
  1110. and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
  1111. or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
  1112. CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
  1113. Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for
  1114. SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
  1115. support, and should also define these other macros:
  1116. CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
  1117. CONFIG_VIDEO
  1118. CONFIG_CMD_BMP
  1119. CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
  1120. CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
  1121. CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
  1122. CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
  1123. CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
  1124. The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
  1125. variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
  1126. boot. See the documentation file README.video for a
  1127. description of this variable.
  1128. - Keyboard Support:
  1129. CONFIG_KEYBOARD
  1130. Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
  1131. This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
  1132. defined in your board-specific files.
  1133. The only board using this so far is RBC823.
  1134. - LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD
  1135. Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
  1136. display); also select one of the supported displays
  1137. by defining one of these:
  1138. CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
  1139. HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
  1140. CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
  1141. NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
  1142. CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
  1143. NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
  1144. Active, color, single scan.
  1145. CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
  1146. NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
  1147. Active, color, single scan.
  1148. CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
  1149. Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
  1150. It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
  1151. CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
  1152. Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
  1153. Active, color, single scan.
  1154. CONFIG_HLD1045
  1155. HLD1045 display, 640x480.
  1156. Active, color, single scan.
  1157. CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
  1158. Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
  1159. or
  1160. Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T
  1161. or
  1162. Hitachi SP14Q002
  1163. 320x240. Black & white.
  1164. Normally display is black on white background; define
  1165. CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
  1166. CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
  1167. Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
  1168. - Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
  1169. If this option is set, the environment is checked for
  1170. a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
  1171. of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
  1172. is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
  1173. specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
  1174. console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
  1175. allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
  1176. loaded very quickly after power-on.
  1177. CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
  1178. If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
  1179. on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
  1180. position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
  1181. number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
  1182. is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
  1183. specify 'm' for centering the image.
  1184. Example:
  1185. setenv splashpos m,m
  1186. => image at center of screen
  1187. setenv splashpos 30,20
  1188. => image at x = 30 and y = 20
  1189. setenv splashpos -10,m
  1190. => vertically centered image
  1191. at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
  1192. - Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
  1193. If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
  1194. images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
  1195. splashscreen support or the bmp command.
  1196. - Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
  1197. If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
  1198. can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
  1199. bmp command.
  1200. - Do compresssing for memory range:
  1201. CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
  1202. If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
  1203. to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
  1204. - Compression support:
  1205. CONFIG_BZIP2
  1206. If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
  1207. images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
  1208. compressed images are supported.
  1209. NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
  1210. the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
  1211. be at least 4MB.
  1212. CONFIG_LZMA
  1213. If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
  1214. images is included.
  1215. Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
  1216. requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
  1217. formula:
  1218. (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
  1219. Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
  1220. and Literal pos bits.
  1221. This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
  1222. for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
  1223. total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
  1224. a very small buffer.
  1225. Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
  1226. then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
  1227. the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
  1228. - MII/PHY support:
  1229. CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
  1230. The address of PHY on MII bus.
  1231. CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
  1232. The clock frequency of the MII bus
  1233. CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
  1234. If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
  1235. detection of gigabit PHY is included.
  1236. CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
  1237. Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
  1238. reset before any MII register access is possible.
  1239. For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
  1240. required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
  1241. CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
  1242. Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
  1243. command issued before MII status register can be read
  1244. - Ethernet address:
  1245. CONFIG_ETHADDR
  1246. CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
  1247. CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
  1248. CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
  1249. CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
  1250. CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
  1251. Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
  1252. for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
  1253. is not determined automatically.
  1254. - IP address:
  1255. CONFIG_IPADDR
  1256. Define a default value for the IP address to use for
  1257. the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
  1258. determined through e.g. bootp.
  1259. (Environment variable "ipaddr")
  1260. - Server IP address:
  1261. CONFIG_SERVERIP
  1262. Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
  1263. server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
  1264. (Environment variable "serverip")
  1265. CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
  1266. Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
  1267. for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
  1268. - Gateway IP address:
  1269. CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
  1270. Defines a default value for the IP address of the
  1271. default router where packets to other networks are
  1272. sent to.
  1273. (Environment variable "gatewayip")
  1274. - Subnet mask:
  1275. CONFIG_NETMASK
  1276. Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
  1277. routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
  1278. address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
  1279. forwarded through a router.
  1280. (Environment variable "netmask")
  1281. - Multicast TFTP Mode:
  1282. CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
  1283. Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
  1284. rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets
  1285. tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet
  1286. driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
  1287. multicast group.
  1288. - BOOTP Recovery Mode:
  1289. CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
  1290. If you have many targets in a network that try to
  1291. boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
  1292. systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
  1293. moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
  1294. from a power failure, when all systems will try to
  1295. boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
  1296. CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
  1297. inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
  1298. following delays are inserted then:
  1299. 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec
  1300. 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec
  1301. 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec
  1302. 4th and following
  1303. BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec
  1304. - DHCP Advanced Options:
  1305. You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
  1306. CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
  1307. CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
  1308. CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
  1309. CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
  1310. CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
  1311. CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
  1312. CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
  1313. CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
  1314. CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
  1315. CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
  1316. CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
  1317. CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
  1318. CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
  1319. CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
  1320. CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
  1321. environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
  1322. CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
  1323. after the configured retry count, the call will fail
  1324. instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over
  1325. to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
  1326. is not available.
  1327. CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
  1328. serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
  1329. than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
  1330. If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
  1331. serverip will be stored in the additional environment
  1332. variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
  1333. stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
  1334. is defined.
  1335. CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
  1336. to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
  1337. need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
  1338. If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
  1339. of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
  1340. option 12 to the DHCP server.
  1341. CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
  1342. A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
  1343. receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
  1344. This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
  1345. respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
  1346. AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
  1347. to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
  1348. DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
  1349. least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
  1350. that one of the retries will be successful but note that
  1351. the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
  1352. this delay.
  1353. - Link-local IP address negotiation:
  1354. Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
  1355. for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
  1356. This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
  1357. to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
  1358. See doc/README.link-local for more information.
  1359. - CDP Options:
  1360. CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
  1361. The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
  1362. CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
  1363. A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
  1364. of the device.
  1365. CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
  1366. A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
  1367. the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
  1368. eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
  1369. CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
  1370. A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
  1371. 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
  1372. CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
  1373. An ascii string containing the version of the software.
  1374. CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
  1375. An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
  1376. CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
  1377. A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
  1378. CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
  1379. A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
  1380. device in .1 of milliwatts.
  1381. CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
  1382. A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
  1383. - Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED
  1384. Several configurations allow to display the current
  1385. status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
  1386. fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
  1387. soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
  1388. start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
  1389. (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
  1390. kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
  1391. feature in U-Boot.
  1392. - CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
  1393. Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
  1394. on those systems that support this (optional)
  1395. feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
  1396. - I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C
  1397. These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of
  1398. (but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will
  1399. include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected CPU.
  1400. This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
  1401. command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
  1402. CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
  1403. clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
  1404. command line interface.
  1405. CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
  1406. CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka
  1407. bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware
  1408. support for I2C.
  1409. There are several other quantities that must also be
  1410. defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C.
  1411. In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
  1412. to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
  1413. to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
  1414. the CPU's i2c node address).
  1415. Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
  1416. (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
  1417. and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
  1418. eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
  1419. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
  1420. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
  1421. When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
  1422. chips might think that the current transfer is still
  1423. in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start
  1424. commands until the slave device responds.
  1425. That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
  1426. If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C)
  1427. then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
  1428. from include/configs/lwmon.h):
  1429. I2C_INIT
  1430. (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
  1431. controller or configure ports.
  1432. eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL)
  1433. I2C_PORT
  1434. (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
  1435. assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
  1436. are 0..3 for ports A..D.
  1437. I2C_ACTIVE
  1438. The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
  1439. (driven). If the data line is open collector, this
  1440. define can be null.
  1441. eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA)
  1442. I2C_TRISTATE
  1443. The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
  1444. (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this
  1445. define can be null.
  1446. eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
  1447. I2C_READ
  1448. Code that returns TRUE if the I2C data line is high,
  1449. FALSE if it is low.
  1450. eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
  1451. I2C_SDA(bit)
  1452. If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C data line high. If it
  1453. is FALSE, it clears it (low).
  1454. eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
  1455. if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \
  1456. else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
  1457. I2C_SCL(bit)
  1458. If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
  1459. is FALSE, it clears it (low).
  1460. eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
  1461. if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \
  1462. else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
  1463. I2C_DELAY
  1464. This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
  1465. controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus
  1466. is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
  1467. like:
  1468. #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2)
  1469. CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
  1470. If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
  1471. then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
  1472. used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
  1473. have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
  1474. You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
  1475. the generic GPIO functions.
  1476. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
  1477. When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
  1478. chips might think that the current transfer is still
  1479. in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
  1480. the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
  1481. processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
  1482. connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
  1483. custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
  1484. is run early in the boot sequence.
  1485. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
  1486. An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
  1487. defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
  1488. boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
  1489. is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
  1490. using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
  1491. controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
  1492. i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
  1493. controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
  1494. CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
  1495. This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
  1496. in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
  1497. variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
  1498. CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
  1499. This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
  1500. must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is
  1501. active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
  1502. Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
  1503. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
  1504. This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
  1505. when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
  1506. is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify
  1507. a 1D array of device addresses
  1508. e.g.
  1509. #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
  1510. #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
  1511. will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
  1512. #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
  1513. #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
  1514. will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
  1515. CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
  1516. If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
  1517. If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
  1518. CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
  1519. If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
  1520. If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
  1521. CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
  1522. If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
  1523. If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
  1524. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
  1525. If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
  1526. If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
  1527. specified DTT device.
  1528. CONFIG_FSL_I2C
  1529. Define this option if you want to use Freescale's I2C driver in
  1530. drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c.
  1531. CONFIG_I2C_MUX
  1532. Define this option if you have I2C devices reached over 1 .. n
  1533. I2C Muxes like the pca9544a. This option addes a new I2C
  1534. Command "i2c bus [muxtype:muxaddr:muxchannel]" which adds a
  1535. new I2C Bus to the existing I2C Busses. If you select the
  1536. new Bus with "i2c dev", u-bbot sends first the commandos for
  1537. the muxes to activate this new "bus".
  1538. CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS must be also defined, to use this
  1539. feature!
  1540. Example:
  1541. Adding a new I2C Bus reached over 2 pca9544a muxes
  1542. The First mux with address 70 and channel 6
  1543. The Second mux with address 71 and channel 4
  1544. => i2c bus pca9544a:70:6:pca9544a:71:4
  1545. Use the "i2c bus" command without parameter, to get a list
  1546. of I2C Busses with muxes:
  1547. => i2c bus
  1548. Busses reached over muxes:
  1549. Bus ID: 2
  1550. reached over Mux(es):
  1551. pca9544a@70 ch: 4
  1552. Bus ID: 3
  1553. reached over Mux(es):
  1554. pca9544a@70 ch: 6
  1555. pca9544a@71 ch: 4
  1556. =>
  1557. If you now switch to the new I2C Bus 3 with "i2c dev 3"
  1558. u-boot first sends the command to the mux@70 to enable
  1559. channel 6, and then the command to the mux@71 to enable
  1560. the channel 4.
  1561. After that, you can use the "normal" i2c commands as
  1562. usual to communicate with your I2C devices behind
  1563. the 2 muxes.
  1564. This option is actually implemented for the bitbanging
  1565. algorithm in common/soft_i2c.c and for the Hardware I2C
  1566. Bus on the MPC8260. But it should be not so difficult
  1567. to add this option to other architectures.
  1568. CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
  1569. defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
  1570. the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
  1571. between writing the address pointer and reading the
  1572. data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour
  1573. of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C
  1574. devices can use either method, but some require one or
  1575. the other.
  1576. - SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI
  1577. Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
  1578. SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
  1579. D/As on the SACSng board)
  1580. CONFIG_SH_SPI
  1581. Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
  1582. only SH7757 is supported.
  1583. CONFIG_SPI_X
  1584. Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
  1585. (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
  1586. CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
  1587. Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
  1588. using hardware support. This is a general purpose
  1589. driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
  1590. (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
  1591. defined, the board configuration must define several
  1592. SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
  1593. an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
  1594. CONFIG_HARD_SPI
  1595. Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
  1596. and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
  1597. must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
  1598. Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an
  1599. example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
  1600. CONFIG_MXC_SPI
  1601. Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
  1602. SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
  1603. - FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
  1604. Enables FPGA subsystem.
  1605. CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
  1606. Enables support for specific chip vendors.
  1607. (ALTERA, XILINX)
  1608. CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
  1609. Enables support for FPGA family.
  1610. (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
  1611. CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
  1612. Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
  1613. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
  1614. Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
  1615. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
  1616. Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
  1617. status by the configuration function. This option
  1618. will require a board or device specific function to
  1619. be written.
  1620. CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
  1621. If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
  1622. configuration driver.
  1623. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
  1624. Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
  1625. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
  1626. Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
  1627. loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
  1628. configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
  1629. indicated a CRC error).
  1630. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
  1631. Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
  1632. after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
  1633. FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
  1634. ms.
  1635. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
  1636. Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
  1637. Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
  1638. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
  1639. Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
  1640. 200 ms.
  1641. - Configuration Management:
  1642. CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
  1643. If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
  1644. version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
  1645. - Vendor Parameter Protection:
  1646. U-Boot considers the values of the environment
  1647. variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
  1648. "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
  1649. are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
  1650. protects these variables from casual modification by
  1651. the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
  1652. and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
  1653. change this behaviour:
  1654. If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
  1655. file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
  1656. completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
  1657. these parameters.
  1658. Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
  1659. _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
  1660. Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
  1661. which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
  1662. serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
  1663. read-only.]
  1664. - Protected RAM:
  1665. CONFIG_PRAM
  1666. Define this variable to enable the reservation of
  1667. "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
  1668. by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
  1669. kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
  1670. this default value by defining an environment
  1671. variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
  1672. reserve. Note that the board info structure will
  1673. still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
  1674. reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
  1675. automatically be defined to hold the amount of
  1676. remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
  1677. argument to Linux, for instance like that:
  1678. setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
  1679. saveenv
  1680. This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
  1681. either, which results in a memory region that will
  1682. not be affected by reboots.
  1683. *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
  1684. detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
  1685. this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
  1686. following board configurations are known to be
  1687. "pRAM-clean":
  1688. IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
  1689. HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
  1690. FLAGADM, TQM8260
  1691. - Error Recovery:
  1692. CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
  1693. Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
  1694. fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
  1695. This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
  1696. system where you want the system to reboot
  1697. automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
  1698. useful during development since you can try to debug
  1699. the conditions that lead to the situation.
  1700. CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
  1701. This variable defines the number of retries for
  1702. network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
  1703. before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
  1704. default value of 5 is used.
  1705. CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
  1706. Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
  1707. CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
  1708. Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
  1709. If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
  1710. try longer timeout such as
  1711. #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
  1712. - Command Interpreter:
  1713. CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
  1714. Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
  1715. Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
  1716. for the "hush" shell.
  1717. CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
  1718. Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
  1719. Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
  1720. powerful command line syntax like
  1721. if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
  1722. constructs ("shell scripts").
  1723. If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
  1724. with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
  1725. CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
  1726. This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
  1727. printed when the command interpreter needs more input
  1728. to complete a command. Usually "> ".
  1729. Note:
  1730. In the current implementation, the local variables
  1731. space and global environment variables space are
  1732. separated. Local variables are those you define by
  1733. simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
  1734. variable later on, you have write `$name' or
  1735. `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
  1736. directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
  1737. Global environment variables are those you use
  1738. setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
  1739. in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
  1740. and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
  1741. To store commands and special characters in a
  1742. variable, please use double quotation marks
  1743. surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
  1744. of the backslashes before semicolons and special
  1745. symbols.
  1746. - Commandline Editing and History:
  1747. CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
  1748. Enable editing and History functions for interactive
  1749. commandline input operations
  1750. - Default Environment:
  1751. CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
  1752. Define this to contain any number of null terminated
  1753. strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
  1754. the default environment compiled into the boot image.
  1755. For example, place something like this in your
  1756. board's config file:
  1757. #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
  1758. "myvar1=value1\0" \
  1759. "myvar2=value2\0"
  1760. Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
  1761. internal format how the environment is stored by the
  1762. U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
  1763. interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
  1764. will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
  1765. You better know what you are doing here.
  1766. Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
  1767. discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
  1768. the environment like the "source" command or the
  1769. boot command first.
  1770. CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
  1771. Define this in order to add variables describing the
  1772. U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
  1773. These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
  1774. Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
  1775. - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
  1776. - CONFIG_SYS_CPU
  1777. - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
  1778. - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
  1779. - CONFIG_SYS_SOC
  1780. CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
  1781. Define this in order to add variables describing certain
  1782. run-time determined information about the hardware to the
  1783. environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev.
  1784. - DataFlash Support:
  1785. CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
  1786. Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
  1787. allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
  1788. commands cp, md...
  1789. - Serial Flash support
  1790. CONFIG_CMD_SF
  1791. Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
  1792. 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
  1793. Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
  1794. flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
  1795. commands.
  1796. The following defaults may be provided by the platform
  1797. to handle the common case when only a single serial
  1798. flash is present on the system.
  1799. CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier
  1800. CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select
  1801. CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h)
  1802. CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz
  1803. - SystemACE Support:
  1804. CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
  1805. Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
  1806. chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
  1807. of the chip must also be defined in the
  1808. CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
  1809. #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
  1810. #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
  1811. When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
  1812. becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
  1813. - TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
  1814. CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
  1815. If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
  1816. is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
  1817. If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
  1818. number generator is used.
  1819. Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
  1820. the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't
  1821. defined, the normal port 69 is used.
  1822. The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
  1823. blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
  1824. target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
  1825. "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
  1826. the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
  1827. A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
  1828. but sometimes that is not allowed.
  1829. - Show boot progress:
  1830. CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
  1831. Defining this option allows to add some board-
  1832. specific code (calling a user-provided function
  1833. "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
  1834. the system's boot progress on some display (for
  1835. example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
  1836. the following checkpoints are implemented:
  1837. - Detailed boot stage timing
  1838. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
  1839. Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
  1840. of the boot process.
  1841. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
  1842. This is the number of available user bootstage records.
  1843. Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
  1844. a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
  1845. the limit, recording will stop.
  1846. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
  1847. Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
  1848. Timer summary in microseconds:
  1849. Mark Elapsed Stage
  1850. 0 0 reset
  1851. 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start
  1852. 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9
  1853. 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done
  1854. 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start

  1858. CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
  1859. Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
  1860. and un/stashing of bootstage data.
  1861. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
  1862. Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
  1863. node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
  1864. has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
  1865. mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
  1866. accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
  1867. For example:
  1868. bootstage {
  1869. 154 {
  1870. name = "board_init_f";
  1871. mark = <3575678>;
  1872. };
  1873. 170 {
  1874. name = "lcd";
  1875. accum = <33482>;
  1876. };
  1877. };
  1878. Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

  2120. Modem Support:
  2121. --------------
  2122. [so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
  2123. - Modem support enable:
  2124. CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
  2125. - RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
  2126. CONFIG_HWFLOW
  2127. - Modem debug support:
  2128. CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
  2129. Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
  2130. for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
  2131. - Interrupt support (PPC):
  2132. There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
  2133. for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
  2134. for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
  2135. should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
  2136. CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
  2137. (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
  2138. timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
  2139. specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
  2140. / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
  2141. general timer_interrupt().
  2142. - General:
  2143. In the target system modem support is enabled when a
  2144. specific key (key combination) is pressed during
  2145. power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
  2146. (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
  2147. board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
  2148. function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
  2149. initialization.
  2150. If there are no modem init strings in the
  2151. environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
  2152. previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
  2153. suppressed, though.
  2154. See also: doc/README.Modem
  2155. Board initialization settings:
  2156. ------------------------------
  2157. During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
  2158. to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
  2159. before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
  2160. following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
  2161. architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
  2162. typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
  2163. - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
  2164. - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
  2165. - CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
  2166. - CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
  2167. Configuration Settings:
  2168. -----------------------
  2169. - CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
  2170. undefine this when you're short of memory.
  2171. - CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
  2172. width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
  2173. - CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
  2174. prompt for user input.
  2175. - CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console
  2176. - CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output
  2177. - CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
  2178. - CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
  2179. the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
  2180. booted
  2181. - CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
  2182. List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
  2183. - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
  2184. Suppress display of console information at boot.
  2185. - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
  2186. If the board specific function
  2187. extern int overwrite_console (void);
  2188. returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
  2189. serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
  2190. - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
  2191. Enable the call to overwrite_console().
  2192. - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
  2193. Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
  2194. - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
  2195. Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
  2196. simple memory test.
  2197. - CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
  2198. Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
  2199. - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
  2200. Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
  2201. You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
  2202. - CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
  2203. If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
  2204. this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
  2205. (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
  2206. fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
  2207. the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
  2208. This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
  2209. board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
  2210. recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
  2211. will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
  2212. This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
  2213. CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
  2214. be touched.
  2215. WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
  2216. the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
  2217. then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
  2218. non page size aligned address and this could cause major
  2219. problems.
  2220. - CONFIG_SYS_TFTP_LOADADDR:
  2221. Default load address for network file downloads
  2222. - CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
  2223. Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
  2224. - CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:

  2226. - CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
  2227. Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
  2228. Cogent motherboard)
  2229. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
  2230. Physical start address of Flash memory.
  2231. - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
  2232. Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
  2233. make config files to be same as the text base address
  2234. (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
  2235. CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
  2236. - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
  2237. Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
  2238. determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
  2239. embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
  2240. flash sector.
  2241. - CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
  2242. Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
  2243. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
  2244. Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
  2245. uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
  2246. you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
  2247. to adjust this setting to your needs.
  2248. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
  2249. Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
  2250. the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
  2251. the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
  2252. used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
  2253. enviroment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
  2254. all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
  2255. and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment
  2256. variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
  2257. CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
  2258. then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
  2259. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
  2260. Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the
  2261. initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
  2262. is enabled.
  2263. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
  2264. Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
  2265. "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
  2266. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
  2267. Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
  2268. space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
  2269. - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
  2270. Max number of Flash memory banks
  2271. - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
  2272. Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
  2273. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
  2274. Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
  2275. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
  2276. Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
  2277. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
  2278. Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
  2279. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
  2280. Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
  2281. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
  2282. If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
  2283. instead of U-Boot software protection.
  2284. - CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
  2285. Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
  2286. without this option such a download has to be
  2287. performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
  2288. copy from RAM to flash.
  2289. The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
  2290. you can check if the download worked before you erase
  2291. the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
  2292. too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
  2293. downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
  2294. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
  2295. Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
  2296. common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
  2297. - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
  2298. This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
  2299. in the drivers directory
  2300. - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
  2301. This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
  2302. in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
  2303. to the MTD layer.
  2304. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
  2305. Use buffered writes to flash.
  2306. - CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
  2307. s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
  2308. write commands.
  2309. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
  2310. If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
  2311. print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
  2312. is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
  2313. optionally available.
  2314. - CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
  2315. If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
  2316. digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
  2317. column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
  2318. - CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
  2319. Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
  2320. Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
  2321. to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
  2322. buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
  2323. on high Ethernet traffic.
  2324. Defaults to 4 if not defined.
  2325. - CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
  2326. Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
  2327. internally to store the environment settings. The default
  2328. setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
  2329. cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
  2330. lib/hashtable.c for details.
  2331. The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
  2332. of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
  2333. following configurations:
  2334. - CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
  2335. Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
  2336. may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
  2337. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
  2338. Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
  2339. a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
  2340. "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
  2341. happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
  2342. sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
  2343. sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
  2344. layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
  2345. such a case you would place the environment in one of the
  2346. 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
  2347. "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
  2348. environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
  2349. between U-Boot and the environment.
  2350. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
  2351. Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
  2352. beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
  2353. type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
  2354. for this sector is given here.
  2355. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
  2356. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
  2357. This is just another way to specify the start address of
  2358. the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
  2359. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
  2360. - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
  2361. Size of the sector containing the environment.
  2362. b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
  2363. In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
  2364. the environment.
  2365. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2366. If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
  2367. and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
  2368. of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
  2369. memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
  2370. It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
  2371. when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
  2372. since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
  2373. for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
  2374. STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
  2375. updating the environment in flash makes it always
  2376. necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
  2377. wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
  2378. RAM, your target system will be dead.
  2379. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
  2380. CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
  2381. These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
  2382. a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
  2383. a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
  2384. a "saveenv" operation.
  2385. BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
  2386. source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
  2387. accordingly!
  2388. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
  2389. Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
  2390. (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
  2391. environment.
  2392. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
  2393. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2394. These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
  2395. want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
  2396. can just be read and written to, without any special
  2397. provision.
  2398. BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
  2399. in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
  2400. console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
  2401. U-Boot will hang.
  2402. Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
  2403. environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
  2404. keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
  2405. to save the current settings.
  2406. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
  2407. Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
  2408. device and a driver for it.
  2409. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
  2410. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2411. These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
  2412. environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
  2413. - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
  2414. If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
  2415. The default address is zero.
  2416. - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
  2417. If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
  2418. single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example
  2419. would require six bits.
  2420. - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
  2421. If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
  2422. page writes. The default is zero milliseconds.
  2423. - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
  2424. The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note
  2425. that this is NOT the chip address length!
  2426. - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
  2427. EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
  2428. like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
  2429. address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
  2430. slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
  2431. byte chips.
  2432. Note that we consider the length of the address field to
  2433. still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
  2434. in the chip address.
  2435. - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
  2436. The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
  2437. - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
  2438. define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
  2439. EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
  2440. - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
  2441. if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
  2442. I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
  2443. EEPROM. For example:
  2444. #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS "pca9547:70:d\0"
  2445. EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
  2446. a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
  2447. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
  2448. Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
  2449. want to use for the environment.
  2450. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
  2451. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
  2452. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2453. These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
  2454. environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
  2455. at the specified address.
  2456. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
  2457. Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
  2458. want to use for the local device's environment.
  2459. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
  2460. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2461. These two #defines specify the address and size of the
  2462. environment area within the remote memory space. The
  2463. local device can get the environment from remote memory
  2464. space by SRIO or PCIE links.
  2465. BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
  2466. "saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
  2467. environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
  2468. but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
  2469. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
  2470. Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
  2471. for the environment.
  2472. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
  2473. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2474. These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
  2475. area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
  2476. aligned to an erase block boundary.
  2477. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
  2478. This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
  2479. size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
  2480. that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
  2481. during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
  2482. aligned to an erase block boundary.
  2483. - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
  2484. Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
  2485. can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
  2486. block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
  2487. are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
  2488. the range to be avoided.
  2489. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
  2490. Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
  2491. environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The
  2492. "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
  2493. Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
  2494. using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
  2495. - CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
  2496. Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
  2497. environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
  2498. CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
  2499. - CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
  2500. Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
  2501. area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
  2502. is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
  2503. scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
  2504. calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
  2505. to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
  2506. start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
  2507. Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
  2508. has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
  2509. created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
  2510. until then to read environment variables.
  2511. The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
  2512. is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
  2513. with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
  2514. necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
  2515. "baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
  2516. have any device yet where we could complain.]
  2517. Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
  2518. the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
  2519. use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
  2520. - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
  2521. Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
  2522. Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
  2523. also needs to be defined.
  2524. - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
  2525. MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
  2526. - CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
  2527. Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
  2528. and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
  2529. drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving
  2530. space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
  2531. limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
  2532. Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
  2533. ---------------------------------------------------
  2534. - CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
  2535. Cache Line Size of the CPU.
  2536. - CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
  2537. Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
  2538. Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
  2539. and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
  2540. the IMMR register after a reset.
  2541. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
  2542. Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
  2543. PowerPC SOCs.
  2544. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
  2545. Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically
  2546. the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
  2547. CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
  2548. for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
  2549. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
  2550. Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new
  2551. physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should
  2552. be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the
  2553. same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR
  2554. is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended
  2555. that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
  2556. #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
  2557. * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
  2558. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
  2559. Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically
  2560. either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is
  2561. used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
  2562. integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
  2563. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
  2564. Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is
  2565. used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
  2566. integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
  2567. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
  2568. If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
  2569. forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
  2570. - Floppy Disk Support:
  2571. CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
  2572. the default drive number (default value 0)
  2573. CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
  2574. defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
  2575. (default value 1)
  2576. CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
  2577. defines the offset of register from address. It
  2578. depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
  2579. the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
  2580. If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
  2581. CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
  2582. default value.
  2583. if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
  2584. fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
  2585. setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
  2586. source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
  2587. initializations.
  2588. - CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
  2589. Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
  2590. interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
  2591. When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
  2592. IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
  2593. registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
  2594. is requierd.
  2595. - CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory.
  2596. DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
  2597. doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
  2598. - CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
  2599. Start address of memory area that can be used for
  2600. initial data and stack; please note that this must be
  2601. writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
  2602. initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
  2603. will become available only after programming the
  2604. memory controller and running certain initialization
  2605. sequences.
  2606. U-Boot uses the following memory types:
  2607. - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
  2608. - MPC824X: data cache
  2609. - PPC4xx: data cache
  2610. - CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
  2611. Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
  2612. area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
  2613. CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
  2614. data is located at the end of the available space
  2615. (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
  2616. CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
  2617. below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
  2618. CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
  2619. Note:
  2620. On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
  2621. cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
  2622. CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
  2623. point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
  2624. the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.
  2625. - CONFIG_SYS_SIUMCR: SIU Module Configuration (11-6)
  2626. - CONFIG_SYS_SYPCR: System Protection Control (11-9)
  2627. - CONFIG_SYS_TBSCR: Time Base Status and Control (11-26)

  2708. - CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
  2709. If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
  2710. one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
  2711. to something your driver can deal with.
  2712. - CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
  2713. Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with

  2722. - CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
  2723. Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
  2724. - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
  2725. Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
  2726. to the given FEC; i. e.
  2727. #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
  2728. means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
  2729. When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
  2730. - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
  2731. The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
  2732. (so program the FEC to ignore it).
  2733. - CONFIG_RMII
  2734. Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
  2735. Note that this is a global option, we can't
  2736. have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
  2737. - CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
  2738. Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
  2739. The syntax is:
  2740. => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
  2741. Where address/count indicate a memory area
  2742. and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
  2743. area should have.
  2744. - CONFIG_LOOPW
  2745. Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
  2746. the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
  2747. - CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
  2748. Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
  2749. "md/mw" commands.
  2750. Examples:
  2751. => mdc.b 10 4 500
  2752. This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
  2753. => mwc.l 100 12345678 10
  2754. This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
  2755. This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
  2756. globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
  2757. - CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
  2758. [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
  2759. low level initializations (like setting up the memory
  2760. controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
  2761. relocate itself into RAM.
  2762. Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
  2763. exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
  2764. other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
  2765. these initializations itself.
  2766. - CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
  2767. Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
  2768. that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
  2769. compiling a NAND SPL.
  2770. - CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
  2771. CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
  2772. If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
  2773. be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
  2774. conditions but may increase the binary size.
  2775. Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
  2776. -----------------------------------
  2777. The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
  2778. loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
  2779. This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
  2780. are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
  2781. within that device.
  2782. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
  2783. The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The
  2784. meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
  2785. is also specified.
  2786. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
  2787. The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format
  2788. has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
  2789. might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
  2790. local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
  2791. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
  2792. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
  2793. normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
  2794. virtual address in NOR flash.
  2795. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
  2796. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
  2797. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
  2798. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
  2799. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
  2800. device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
  2801. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
  2802. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
  2803. device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
  2804. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
  2805. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
  2806. memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
  2807. can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
  2808. window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
  2809. master's memory space.
  2810. Building the Software:
  2811. ======================
  2812. Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
  2813. and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
  2814. all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
  2815. (potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
  2816. recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
  2817. which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
  2818. If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
  2819. have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
  2820. you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
  2821. Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
  2822. necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
  2823. $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
  2824. $ export CROSS_COMPILE
  2825. Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
  2826. the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
  2827. (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
  2828. toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example:
  2829. $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
  2830. Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
  2831. be executed on computers running Windows.
  2832. U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
  2833. sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
  2834. is done by typing:
  2835. make NAME_config
  2836. where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
  2837. rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
  2838. Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
  2839. additional information is available from the board vendor; for
  2840. instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
  2841. or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
  2842. when choosing the configuration, i. e.
  2843. make TQM823L_config
  2844. - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
  2845. make TQM823L_LCD_config
  2846. - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
  2847. etc.
  2848. Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
  2849. images ready for download to / installation on your system:
  2850. - "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
  2851. - "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
  2852. - "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
  2853. By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
  2854. in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
  2855. this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
  2856. 1. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
  2857. make O=/tmp/build distclean
  2858. make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
  2859. make O=/tmp/build all
  2860. 2. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
  2861. export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
  2862. make distclean
  2863. make NAME_config
  2864. make all
  2865. Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
  2866. variable.
  2867. Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
  2868. for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
  2869. native "make".
  2870. If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
  2871. to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
  2872. steps:
  2873. 1. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
  2874. "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
  2875. Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
  2876. 2. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
  2877. files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
  2878. the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
  2879. 3. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
  2880. your board
  2881. 3. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
  2882. directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
  2883. 4. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
  2884. 5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
  2885. to be installed on your target system.
  2886. 6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
  2887. [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
  2888. Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
  2889. ==============================================================
  2890. If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
  2891. or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
  2892. provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
  2893. the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
  2894. official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
  2895. But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
  2896. cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
  2897. the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
  2898. just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
  2899. for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
  2900. select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
  2901. environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
  2902. you can type
  2903. CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
  2904. or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
  2905. CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
  2906. When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
  2907. U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
  2908. setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
  2909. built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
  2910. <target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
  2911. location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
  2912. variable. For example:
  2913. export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
  2914. export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
  2915. CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
  2916. With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
  2917. log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
  2918. during the whole build process.
  2919. See also "U-Boot Porting Guide" below.

  2969. Environment Variables:
  2970. ======================
  2971. U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
  2972. can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
  2973. Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
  2974. "printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
  2975. without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
  2976. environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
  2977. working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
  2978. environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
  2979. Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
  2980. List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
  2981. baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
  2982. bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
  2983. bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
  2984. bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
  2985. bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP
  2986. bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
  2987. command can be restricted. This variable is given as
  2988. a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
  2989. for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
  2990. environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
  2991. also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
  2992. kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
  2993. bootm_mapsize.
  2994. bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
  2995. This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
  2996. defines the size of the memory region starting at base
  2997. address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
  2998. during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
  2999. as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
  3000. used otherwise.
  3001. bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
  3002. command can be restricted. This variable is given as
  3003. a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
  3004. allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
  3005. environment variable.
  3006. updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
  3007. by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
  3008. documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
  3009. autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
  3010. "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
  3011. configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
  3012. load any image using TFTP
  3013. autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
  3014. "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
  3015. be automatically started (by internally calling
  3016. "bootm")
  3017. If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
  3018. "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
  3019. (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
  3020. This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
  3021. data.
  3022. fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the
  3023. flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
  3024. For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
  3025. at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
  3026. only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
  3027. may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
  3028. device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
  3029. of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
  3030. access it during the boot procedure.
  3031. If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
  3032. the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this
  3033. to work it must reside in writable memory, have
  3034. sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
  3035. add the information it needs into it, and the memory
  3036. must be accessible by the kernel.
  3037. fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
  3038. device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
  3039. defined.
  3040. i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
  3041. if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
  3042. mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
  3043. initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
  3044. it must be saved and board must be reset.
  3045. initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images:
  3046. If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
  3047. copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
  3048. is usually what you want since it allows for
  3049. maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
  3050. make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
  3051. CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
  3052. variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
  3053. Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
  3054. address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
  3055. does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
  3056. For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
  3057. RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
  3058. you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
  3059. the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
  3060. sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
  3061. 12 MB as well - this can be done with
  3062. setenv initrd_high 00c00000
  3063. If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
  3064. indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
  3065. for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
  3066. memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
  3067. ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
  3068. boot time on your system, but requires that this
  3069. feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
  3070. ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command
  3071. loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp",
  3072. "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
  3073. loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
  3074. serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
  3075. bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
  3076. bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
  3077. bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
  3078. ethprime - controls which interface is used first.
  3079. ethact - controls which interface is currently active.
  3080. For example you can do the following
  3081. => setenv ethact FEC
  3082. => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
  3083. => setenv ethact SCC
  3084. => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
  3085. ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
  3086. available network interfaces.
  3087. It just stays at the currently selected interface.
  3088. netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will
  3089. either succeed or fail without retrying.
  3090. When set to "once" the network operation will
  3091. fail when all the available network interfaces
  3092. are tried once without success.
  3093. Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
  3094. themselves.
  3095. npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode
  3096. tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
  3097. UDP source port.
  3098. tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
  3099. destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
  3100. tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
  3101. we use the TFTP server's default block size
  3102. tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
  3103. seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
  3104. when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
  3105. be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
  3106. Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
  3107. faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
  3108. with unreliable TFTP servers.
  3109. vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
  3110. Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
  3111. VLAN tagged frames.
  3112. The following image location variables contain the location of images
  3113. used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
  3114. not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
  3115. variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
  3116. server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
  3117. loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
  3118. flash or offset in NAND flash.
  3119. *Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
  3120. boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
  3121. boards use these variables for other purposes.
  3122. Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location
  3123. ----- --------- ----------- --------------
  3124. u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr
  3125. Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr
  3126. device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr
  3127. ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr
  3128. The following environment variables may be used and automatically
  3129. updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
  3130. depending the information provided by your boot server:
  3131. bootfile - see above
  3132. dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server
  3133. dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
  3134. gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
  3135. hostname - Target hostname
  3136. ipaddr - see above
  3137. netmask - Subnet Mask
  3138. rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
  3139. serverip - see above
  3140. There are two special Environment Variables:
  3141. serial# - contains hardware identification information such
  3142. as type string and/or serial number
  3143. ethaddr - Ethernet address
  3144. These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
  3145. the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
  3146. once they have been set once.
  3147. Further special Environment Variables:
  3148. ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
  3149. with the "version" command. This variable is
  3150. readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
  3151. Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
  3152. only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
  3153. Command Line Parsing:
  3154. =====================
  3155. There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
  3156. the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
  3157. Old, simple command line parser:
  3158. --------------------------------
  3159. - supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
  3160. - several commands on one line, separated by ';'
  3161. - variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
  3162. - special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
  3163. for example:
  3164. setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
  3165. - You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
  3166. setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
  3167. Hush shell:
  3168. -----------
  3169. - similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
  3170. if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
  3171. until...do...done, ...
  3172. - supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
  3173. commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
  3174. "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
  3175. command
  3176. General rules:
  3177. --------------
  3178. (1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
  3179. command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
  3180. one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
  3181. executed anyway.
  3182. (2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
  3183. calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
  3184. command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
  3185. variables are not executed.
  3186. Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
  3187. =======================================
  3188. Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
  3189. such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
  3190. "working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
  3191. Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
  3192. MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
  3193. "eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
  3194. If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
  3195. in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
  3196. ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
  3197. variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
  3198. o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
  3199. environment, the SROM's address is used.
  3200. o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
  3201. environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
  3202. used.
  3203. o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
  3204. both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
  3205. o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
  3206. addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
  3207. warning is printed.
  3208. o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
  3209. is raised.
  3210. If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
  3211. will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This
  3212. may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
  3213. The naming convention is as follows:
  3214. "ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
  3215. Image Formats:
  3216. ==============
  3217. U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
  3218. images in two formats:
  3219. New uImage format (FIT)
  3220. -----------------------
  3221. Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
  3222. to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
  3223. components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
  3224. SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
  3225. Old uImage format
  3226. -----------------
  3227. Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
  3228. preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
  3229. details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
  3230. * Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
  3231. 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
  3232. LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
  3233. Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
  3234. INTEGRITY).
  3235. * Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
  3236. IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
  3237. Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
  3238. * Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
  3239. * Load Address
  3240. * Entry Point
  3241. * Image Name
  3242. * Image Timestamp
  3243. The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
  3244. and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
  3245. CRC32 checksums.
  3246. Linux Support:
  3247. ==============
  3248. Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
  3249. easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
  3250. U-Boot.
  3251. U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
  3252. special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
  3253. "initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
  3254. instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
  3255. serves several purposes:
  3256. - the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
  3257. applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
  3258. Flash memory footprint)
  3259. - it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
  3260. lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
  3261. - the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
  3262. images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
  3263. be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
  3264. have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
  3265. change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
  3266. software is easier now.
  3267. Linux HOWTO:
  3268. ============
  3269. Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
  3270. ---------------------------------------
  3271. U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
  3272. configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
  3273. (no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
  3274. Linux :-).
  3275. But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
  3276. Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
  3277. include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
  3278. Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
  3279. and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
  3280. as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
  3281. Configuring the Linux kernel:
  3282. -----------------------------
  3283. No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
  3284. device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
  3285. Building a Linux Image:
  3286. -----------------------
  3287. With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
  3288. not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
  3289. "uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
  3290. U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
  3291. which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
  3292. 100% compatible format.
  3293. Example:
  3294. make TQM850L_config
  3295. make oldconfig
  3296. make dep
  3297. make uImage
  3298. The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
  3299. encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information,
  3300. CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
  3301. * build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
  3302. * convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
  3303. ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
  3304. -R .note -R .comment \
  3305. -S vmlinux linux.bin
  3306. * compress the binary image:
  3307. gzip -9 linux.bin
  3308. * package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
  3309. mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
  3310. -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
  3311. -d linux.bin.gz uImage
  3312. The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
  3313. with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
  3314. combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
  3315. byte header containing information about target architecture,
  3316. operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
  3317. stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
  3318. "mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
  3319. print the header information, or to build new images.
  3320. In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
  3321. contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
  3322. checksum verification:
  3323. tools/mkimage -l image
  3324. -l ==> list image header information
  3325. The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
  3326. from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
  3327. tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
  3328. -n name -d data_file image
  3329. -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
  3330. -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
  3331. -T ==> set image type to 'type'
  3332. -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
  3333. -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
  3334. -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
  3335. -n ==> set image name to 'name'
  3336. -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
  3337. Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
  3338. address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
  3339. kernel version:
  3340. - 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
  3341. - 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
  3342. So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
  3343. -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
  3344. > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
  3345. > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
  3346. > examples/uImage.TQM850L
  3347. Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
  3348. Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
  3349. Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
  3350. Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
  3351. Load Address: 0x00000000
  3352. Entry Point: 0x00000000
  3353. To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
  3354. -> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
  3355. Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
  3356. Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
  3357. Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
  3358. Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
  3359. Load Address: 0x00000000
  3360. Entry Point: 0x00000000
  3361. NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
  3362. speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
  3363. needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
  3364. need to be uncompressed:
  3365. -> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
  3366. -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
  3367. > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
  3368. > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
  3369. > examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
  3370. Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
  3371. Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
  3372. Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)

  3374. Load Address: 0x00000000
  3375. Entry Point: 0x00000000
  3376. Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
  3377. when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
  3378. -> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
  3379. > -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
  3380. > -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd

  3384. Data Size: 566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
  3385. Load Address: 0x00000000
  3386. Entry Point: 0x00000000
  3387. Installing a Linux Image:
  3388. -------------------------
  3389. To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
  3390. you must convert the image to S-Record format:
  3391. objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
  3392. The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
  3393. image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
  3394. address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
  3395. specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
  3396. command.
  3397. Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
  3398. TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
  3399. => erase 40100000 401FFFFF

  3426. of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
  3427. parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
  3428. "printenv" and "setenv" commands:
  3429. => printenv bootargs
  3430. bootargs=root=/dev/ram
  3431. => setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

  3537. More About U-Boot Image Types:
  3538. ------------------------------
  3539. U-Boot supports the following image types:
  3540. "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
  3541. provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
  3542. well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
  3543. the Standalone Program.
  3544. "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
  3545. will take over control completely. Usually these programs
  3546. will install their own set of exception handlers, device
  3547. drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
  3548. expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
  3549. "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
  3550. parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
  3551. being started.
  3552. "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
  3553. (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
  3554. RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
  3555. to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
  3556. server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
  3557. for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
  3558. "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
  3559. image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
  3560. byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
  3561. Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
  3562. one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
  3563. a multiple of 4 bytes).
  3564. "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
  3565. U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
  3566. flash memory.
  3567. "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
  3568. U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
  3569. useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
  3570. as command interpreter.
  3571. Booting the Linux zImage:
  3572. -------------------------
  3573. On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
  3574. using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
  3575. as the syntax of "bootm" command.
  3576. Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_INITRD_RAW allows user to supply
  3577. kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
  3578. address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
  3579. format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
  3580. Standalone HOWTO:
  3581. =================
  3582. One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
  3583. run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
  3584. U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
  3585. Two simple examples are included with the sources:
  3586. "Hello World" Demo:
  3587. -------------------
  3588. 'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
  3589. application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
  3590. It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
  3591. like that:
  3592. => loads
  3593. ## Ready for S-Record download ...
  3594. ~>examples/hello_world.srec
  3595. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
  3596. [file transfer complete]
  3597. [connected]
  3598. ## Start Addr = 0x00040004
  3599. => go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
  3600. ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
  3601. Hello World
  3602. argc = 7
  3603. argv[0] = "40004"
  3604. argv[1] = "Hello"
  3605. argv[2] = "World!"
  3606. argv[3] = "This"
  3607. argv[4] = "is"
  3608. argv[5] = "a"
  3609. argv[6] = "test."
  3610. argv[7] = "<NULL>"
  3611. Hit any key to exit ...
  3612. ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
  3613. Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
  3614. handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
  3615. Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
  3616. The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
  3617. character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
  3618. controlled by the following keys:
  3619. ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
  3620. b - enable interrupts and start timer
  3621. e - stop timer and disable interrupts
  3622. q - quit application
  3623. => loads

  3654. Minicom warning:
  3655. ================
  3656. Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
  3657. "minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
  3658. consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
  3659. Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
  3660. especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
  3661. use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See
  3662. http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
  3663. for help with kermit.
  3664. Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
  3665. configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
  3666. Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
  3667. X kermit /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s Y U Y N N
  3668. Y kermit /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r N D Y N N
  3669. NetBSD Notes:
  3670. =============
  3671. Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
  3672. (build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
  3673. Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
  3674. NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
  3675. need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
  3676. Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
  3677. attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
  3678. missing. This file has to be installed and patched manually:
  3679. # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
  3680. # mkdir powerpc
  3681. # ln -s powerpc machine
  3682. # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
  3683. # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
  3684. Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
  3685. and U-Boot include files.
  3686. Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
  3687. stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
  3688. proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
  3689. tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
  3690. meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
  3691. Implementation Internals:
  3692. =========================
  3693. The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
  3694. implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
  3695. inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
  3696. hardware.
  3697. Initial Stack, Global Data:
  3698. ---------------------------
  3699. The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
  3700. starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
  3701. system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
  3702. This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
  3703. is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
  3704. at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
  3705. options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
  3706. models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
  3707. MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
  3708. locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
  3709. Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
  3710. U-Boot mailing list:
  3711. Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
  3712. From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
  3713. Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
  3714. ...
  3715. Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
  3716. is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
  3717. require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
  3718. is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
  3719. necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
  3720. beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
  3721. can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
  3722. operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
  3723. OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
  3724. is another option for the system designer to use as an
  3725. initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
  3726. option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
  3727. board designers haven't used it for something that would
  3728. cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
  3729. used.
  3730. CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
  3731. with your processor/board/system design. The default value
  3732. you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
  3733. walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
  3734. than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
  3735. it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
  3736. that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
  3737. start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
  3738. you get the config right.

  3741. It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
  3742. code for the initialization procedures:
  3743. * Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
  3744. to write it.
  3745. * Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
  3746. as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
  3747. zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
  3748. * Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
  3749. that.
  3750. Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
  3751. normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
  3752. turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
  3753. simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
  3754. functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
  3755. functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
  3756. the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
  3757. place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
  3758. reserve for this purpose.
  3759. When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
  3760. relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by
  3761. GCC's implementation.
  3762. For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
  3763. R1: stack pointer
  3764. R2: reserved for system use
  3765. R3-R4: parameter passing and return values
  3766. R5-R10: parameter passing
  3767. R13: small data area pointer
  3768. R30: GOT pointer
  3769. R31: frame pointer
  3770. (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
  3771. is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
  3772. going back and forth between asm and C)
  3773. ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
  3774. Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
  3775. address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
  3776. but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
  3777. smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
  3778. average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
  3779. 624 text + 127 data).
  3780. On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
  3781. http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
  3782. ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
  3783. On ARM, the following registers are used:
  3784. R0: function argument word/integer result
  3785. R1-R3: function argument word
  3786. R9: GOT pointer
  3787. R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking if enabled)
  3788. R11: argument (frame) pointer
  3789. R12: temporary workspace
  3790. R13: stack pointer
  3791. R14: link register
  3792. R15: program counter
  3793. ==> U-Boot will use R8 to hold a pointer to the global data
  3794. On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
  3795. http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
  3796. ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
  3797. Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
  3798. to access small data sections, so gp is free.
  3799. On NDS32, the following registers are used:
  3800. R0-R1: argument/return
  3801. R2-R5: argument
  3802. R15: temporary register for assembler
  3803. R16: trampoline register
  3804. R28: frame pointer (FP)
  3805. R29: global pointer (GP)
  3806. R30: link register (LP)
  3807. R31: stack pointer (SP)
  3808. PC: program counter (PC)
  3809. ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
  3810. NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
  3811. or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
  3812. Memory Management:
  3813. ------------------
  3814. U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
  3815. MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
  3816. The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
  3817. controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
  3818. memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
  3819. physical memory banks.
  3820. U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
  3821. TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
  3822. booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
  3823. to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
  3824. memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
  3825. configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
  3826. Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
  3827. Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
  3828. of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
  3829. So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
  3830. this:
  3831. 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code
  3832. :
  3833. 0x0000 1FFF
  3834. 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use
  3835. :
  3836. :
  3837. :
  3838. :
  3839. 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
  3840. 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
  3841. 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena
  3842. :
  3843. 0x00FD FFFF
  3844. 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code
  3845. ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
  3846. ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
  3847. 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM]
  3848. System Initialization:
  3849. ----------------------
  3850. In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
  3851. (on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
  3852. configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
  3853. To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
  3854. To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
  3855. initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
  3856. which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
  3857. part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
  3858. the caches and the SIU.
  3859. Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
  3860. preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
  3861. (multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
  3862. on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
  3863. programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
  3864. simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
  3865. banks.
  3866. When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
  3867. different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
  3868. bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
  3869. 0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
  3870. contiguous memory starting from 0.
  3871. Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
  3872. and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
  3873. Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
  3874. pages, and the final stack is set up.
  3875. Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
  3876. until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
  3877. running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
  3878. new address in RAM.

  3937. Coding Standards:
  3938. -----------------
  3939. All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
  3940. coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
  3941. "scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
  3942. Source files originating from a different project (for example the
  3943. MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
  3944. reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
  3945. sources.
  3946. Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
  3947. Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
  3948. in your code.
  3949. Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
  3950. - remove any trailing white space
  3951. - use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
  3952. - make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
  3953. - do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
  3954. - do not add trailing empty lines to source files
  3955. Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
  3956. with a request to reformat the changes.
  3957. Submitting Patches:
  3958. -------------------
  3959. Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
  3960. establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
  3961. may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
  3962. Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
  3963. Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
  3964. see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
  3965. When you send a patch, please include the following information with
  3966. it:
  3967. * For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
  3968. this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
  3969. patch actually fixes something.
  3970. * For new features: a description of the feature and your
  3971. implementation.
  3972. * A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
  3973. * For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
  3974. * When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add this
  3975. board to the MAINTAINERS file, too.
  3976. * If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
  3977. document these in the README file.
  3978. * The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
  3979. recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
  3980. "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
  3981. the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
  3982. with some other mail clients.
  3983. If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
  3984. diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
  3985. GNU diff.
  3986. The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
  3987. directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
  3988. your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
  3989. affected files).
  3990. We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
  3991. and compressed attachments must not be used.
  3992. * If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
  3993. files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
  3994. * Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
  3995. submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
  3996. Notes:
  3997. * Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
  3998. source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
  3999. for any of the boards.
  4000. * Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
  4001. containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
  4002. returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
  4003. * If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
  4004. add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
  4005. When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
  4006. (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
  4007. disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
  4008. modification.
  4009. * Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
  4010. u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
  4011. reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
  4012. bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
