  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. Note: There is no CHANGELOG file in the actual U-Boot source tree;
  49. it can be created dynamically from the Git log using:
  50. make CHANGELOG
  51. Where to get help:
  52. ==================
  53. In case you have questions about, problems with or contributions for
  54. U-Boot you should send a message to the U-Boot mailing list at
  55. <u-boot@lists.denx.de>. There is also an archive of previous traffic
  56. on the mailing list - please search the archive before asking FAQ's.
  57. Please see http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot and
  58. http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot
  59. Where to get source code:
  60. =========================
  61. The U-Boot source code is maintained in the git repository at
  62. git://www.denx.de/git/u-boot.git ; you can browse it online at
  63. http://www.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=summary
  64. The "snapshot" links on this page allow you to download tarballs of
  65. any version you might be interested in. Official releases are also
  66. available for FTP download from the ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/
  67. directory.
  68. Pre-built (and tested) images are available from
  69. ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/images/
  70. Where we come from:
  71. ===================
  72. - start from 8xxrom sources
  73. - create PPCBoot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/ppcboot)
  74. - clean up code
  75. - make it easier to add custom boards
  76. - make it possible to add other [PowerPC] CPUs
  77. - extend functions, especially:
  78. * Provide extended interface to Linux boot loader
  79. * S-Record download
  80. * network boot
  81. * PCMCIA / CompactFlash / ATA disk / SCSI ... boot
  82. - create ARMBoot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/armboot)
  83. - add other CPU families (starting with ARM)
  84. - create U-Boot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/u-boot)
  85. - current project page: see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot
  86. Names and Spelling:
  87. ===================
  88. The "official" name of this project is "Das U-Boot". The spelling
  89. "U-Boot" shall be used in all written text (documentation, comments
  90. in source files etc.). Example:
  91. This is the README file for the U-Boot project.
  92. File names etc. shall be based on the string "u-boot". Examples:
  93. include/asm-ppc/u-boot.h
  94. #include <asm/u-boot.h>
  95. Variable names, preprocessor constants etc. shall be either based on
  96. the string "u_boot" or on "U_BOOT". Example:
  97. U_BOOT_VERSION u_boot_logo
  98. IH_OS_U_BOOT u_boot_hush_start
  99. Versioning:
  100. ===========
  101. Starting with the release in October 2008, the names of the releases
  102. were changed from numerical release numbers without deeper meaning
  103. into a time stamp based numbering. Regular releases are identified by
  104. names consisting of the calendar year and month of the release date.
  105. Additional fields (if present) indicate release candidates or bug fix
  106. releases in "stable" maintenance trees.
  107. Examples:
  108. U-Boot v2009.11 - Release November 2009
  109. U-Boot v2009.11.1 - Release 1 in version November 2009 stable tree
  110. U-Boot v2010.09-rc1 - Release candiate 1 for September 2010 release

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

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

  863. default MAC for empty EEPROM after production.
  864. CONFIG_EEPRO100
  865. Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips.
  866. Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM
  867. write routine for first time initialisation.
  868. CONFIG_TULIP
  869. Support for Digital 2114x chips.
  870. Optional CONFIG_TULIP_SELECT_MEDIA for board specific
  871. modem chip initialisation (KS8761/QS6611).
  872. CONFIG_NATSEMI
  873. Support for National dp83815 chips.
  874. CONFIG_NS8382X

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

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

  966. instead of using asynchronous interrupts
  967. CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
  968. txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
  969. - USB Device:
  970. Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
  971. Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
  972. command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
  973. attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
  974. it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
  975. can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
  976. appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
  977. Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
  978. If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
  979. a Linux host by
  980. # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
  981. else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
  982. variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
  983. might be defined in YourBoardName.h
  984. CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
  985. Define this to build a UDC device
  986. CONFIG_USB_TTY
  987. Define this to have a tty type of device available to
  988. talk to the UDC device
  989. CONFIG_USBD_HS
  990. Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
  991. device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
  992. int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
  993. also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
  994. whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
  995. speed.
  996. CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
  997. Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
  998. be set to usbtty.
  999. mpc8xx:
  1000. CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH
  1001. Derive USB clock from external clock "blah"
  1002. - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02
  1003. CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH
  1004. Derive USB clock from brgclk
  1005. - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
  1006. If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
  1007. define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
  1008. or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
  1009. CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
  1010. CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
  1011. should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
  1012. CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
  1013. Define this string as the name of your company for
  1014. - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
  1015. CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
  1016. Define this string as the name of your product
  1017. - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
  1018. CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
  1019. Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
  1020. Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
  1021. to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
  1022. - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
  1023. CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
  1024. Define this as the unique Product ID
  1025. for your device
  1026. - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
  1027. - ULPI Layer Support:
  1028. The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
  1029. the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
  1030. via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
  1031. the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
  1032. viewport is supported.
  1033. To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
  1034. CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
  1035. If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
  1036. standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
  1037. the appropriate value in Hz.
  1038. - MMC Support:
  1039. The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
  1040. enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
  1041. accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
  1042. to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
  1043. enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
  1044. the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
  1045. CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
  1046. Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
  1047. CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
  1048. Define the base address of MMCIF registers
  1049. CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK
  1050. Define the clock frequency for MMCIF
  1051. - Journaling Flash filesystem support:
  1052. CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
  1053. CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
  1054. Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
  1055. CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
  1056. CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
  1057. Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
  1058. CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
  1059. Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
  1060. function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
  1061. If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
  1062. #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1
  1063. to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
  1064. have not defined a custom partition
  1065. - FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
  1066. CONFIG_FAT_WRITE
  1067. Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
  1068. file in FAT formatted partition.
  1069. This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
  1070. user to write files to FAT.
  1071. CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
  1072. CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
  1073. Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
  1074. filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
  1075. and cbfsload.
  1076. - Keyboard Support:
  1077. CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
  1078. Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
  1079. support
  1080. CONFIG_I8042_KBD
  1081. Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
  1082. GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
  1083. Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
  1084. for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
  1085. - Video support:
  1086. CONFIG_VIDEO
  1087. Define this to enable video support (for output to
  1088. video).
  1089. CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
  1090. Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
  1091. CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
  1092. Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
  1093. video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
  1094. (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
  1095. assumed.
  1096. For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
  1097. selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
  1098. are possible:
  1099. - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
  1100. Following standard modes are supported (* is default):
  1101. Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
  1102. -------------+---------------------------------------------
  1103. 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307
  1104. 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319
  1105. 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A
  1106. 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B
  1107. -------------+---------------------------------------------
  1108. (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
  1109. - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
  1110. from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
  1111. CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
  1112. Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
  1113. and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
  1114. or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
  1115. CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
  1116. Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for
  1117. SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
  1118. support, and should also define these other macros:
  1119. CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
  1120. CONFIG_VIDEO
  1121. CONFIG_CMD_BMP
  1122. CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
  1123. CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
  1124. CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
  1125. CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
  1126. CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
  1127. The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
  1128. variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
  1129. boot. See the documentation file README.video for a
  1130. description of this variable.
  1131. CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
  1132. Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
  1133. are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
  1134. driver.
  1135. - Keyboard Support:
  1136. CONFIG_KEYBOARD
  1137. Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
  1138. This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
  1139. defined in your board-specific files.
  1140. The only board using this so far is RBC823.
  1141. - LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD
  1142. Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
  1143. display); also select one of the supported displays
  1144. by defining one of these:
  1145. CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
  1146. HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
  1147. CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
  1148. NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
  1149. CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
  1150. NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
  1151. Active, color, single scan.
  1152. CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
  1153. NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
  1154. Active, color, single scan.
  1155. CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
  1156. Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
  1157. It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
  1158. CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
  1159. Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
  1160. Active, color, single scan.
  1161. CONFIG_HLD1045
  1162. HLD1045 display, 640x480.
  1163. Active, color, single scan.
  1164. CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
  1165. Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
  1166. or
  1167. Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T
  1168. or
  1169. Hitachi SP14Q002
  1170. 320x240. Black & white.
  1171. Normally display is black on white background; define
  1172. CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
  1173. CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
  1174. Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
  1175. - Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
  1176. If this option is set, the environment is checked for
  1177. a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
  1178. of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
  1179. is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
  1180. specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
  1181. console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
  1182. allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
  1183. loaded very quickly after power-on.
  1184. CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
  1185. If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
  1186. on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
  1187. position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
  1188. number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
  1189. is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
  1190. specify 'm' for centering the image.
  1191. Example:
  1192. setenv splashpos m,m
  1193. => image at center of screen
  1194. setenv splashpos 30,20
  1195. => image at x = 30 and y = 20
  1196. setenv splashpos -10,m
  1197. => vertically centered image
  1198. at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
  1199. - Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
  1200. If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
  1201. images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
  1202. splashscreen support or the bmp command.
  1203. - Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
  1204. If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
  1205. can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
  1206. bmp command.
  1207. - Do compresssing for memory range:
  1208. CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
  1209. If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
  1210. to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
  1211. - Compression support:
  1212. CONFIG_BZIP2
  1213. If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
  1214. images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
  1215. compressed images are supported.
  1216. NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
  1217. the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
  1218. be at least 4MB.
  1219. CONFIG_LZMA
  1220. If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
  1221. images is included.
  1222. Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
  1223. requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
  1224. formula:
  1225. (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
  1226. Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
  1227. and Literal pos bits.
  1228. This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
  1229. for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
  1230. total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
  1231. a very small buffer.
  1232. Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
  1233. then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
  1234. the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
  1235. - MII/PHY support:
  1236. CONFIG_PHY_ADDR
  1237. The address of PHY on MII bus.
  1238. CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
  1239. The clock frequency of the MII bus
  1240. CONFIG_PHY_GIGE
  1241. If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
  1242. detection of gigabit PHY is included.
  1243. CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
  1244. Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
  1245. reset before any MII register access is possible.
  1246. For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
  1247. required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
  1248. CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
  1249. Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
  1250. command issued before MII status register can be read
  1251. - Ethernet address:
  1252. CONFIG_ETHADDR
  1253. CONFIG_ETH1ADDR
  1254. CONFIG_ETH2ADDR
  1255. CONFIG_ETH3ADDR
  1256. CONFIG_ETH4ADDR
  1257. CONFIG_ETH5ADDR
  1258. Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
  1259. for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
  1260. is not determined automatically.
  1261. - IP address:
  1262. CONFIG_IPADDR
  1263. Define a default value for the IP address to use for
  1264. the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
  1265. determined through e.g. bootp.
  1266. (Environment variable "ipaddr")
  1267. - Server IP address:
  1268. CONFIG_SERVERIP
  1269. Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
  1270. server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
  1271. (Environment variable "serverip")
  1272. CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
  1273. Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
  1274. for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
  1275. - Gateway IP address:
  1276. CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
  1277. Defines a default value for the IP address of the
  1278. default router where packets to other networks are
  1279. sent to.
  1280. (Environment variable "gatewayip")
  1281. - Subnet mask:
  1282. CONFIG_NETMASK
  1283. Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
  1284. routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
  1285. address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
  1286. forwarded through a router.
  1287. (Environment variable "netmask")
  1288. - Multicast TFTP Mode:
  1289. CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
  1290. Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
  1291. rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets
  1292. tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet
  1293. driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
  1294. multicast group.
  1295. - BOOTP Recovery Mode:
  1296. CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
  1297. If you have many targets in a network that try to
  1298. boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
  1299. systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
  1300. moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
  1301. from a power failure, when all systems will try to
  1302. boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
  1303. CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
  1304. inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
  1305. following delays are inserted then:
  1306. 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec
  1307. 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec
  1308. 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec
  1309. 4th and following
  1310. BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec
  1311. - DHCP Advanced Options:
  1312. You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
  1313. CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
  1314. CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
  1315. CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
  1316. CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
  1317. CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
  1318. CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
  1319. CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
  1320. CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
  1321. CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2
  1322. CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
  1323. CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
  1324. CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
  1325. CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
  1326. CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
  1327. CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
  1328. environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
  1329. CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
  1330. after the configured retry count, the call will fail
  1331. instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over
  1332. to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
  1333. is not available.
  1334. CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
  1335. serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
  1336. than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
  1337. If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
  1338. serverip will be stored in the additional environment
  1339. variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
  1340. stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
  1341. is defined.
  1342. CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
  1343. to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
  1344. need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
  1345. If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
  1346. of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
  1347. option 12 to the DHCP server.
  1348. CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
  1349. A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
  1350. receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
  1351. This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
  1352. respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
  1353. AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
  1354. to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
  1355. DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
  1356. least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
  1357. that one of the retries will be successful but note that
  1358. the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
  1359. this delay.
  1360. - Link-local IP address negotiation:
  1361. Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
  1362. for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
  1363. This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
  1364. to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
  1365. See doc/README.link-local for more information.
  1366. - CDP Options:
  1367. CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
  1368. The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
  1369. CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
  1370. A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
  1371. of the device.
  1372. CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
  1373. A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
  1374. the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
  1375. eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
  1376. CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
  1377. A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
  1378. 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
  1379. CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
  1380. An ascii string containing the version of the software.
  1381. CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
  1382. An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
  1383. CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
  1384. A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
  1385. CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
  1386. A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
  1387. device in .1 of milliwatts.
  1388. CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
  1389. A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
  1390. - Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED
  1391. Several configurations allow to display the current
  1392. status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
  1393. fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
  1394. soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
  1395. start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
  1396. (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
  1397. kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
  1398. feature in U-Boot.
  1399. - CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
  1400. Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
  1401. on those systems that support this (optional)
  1402. feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
  1403. - I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C
  1404. These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of
  1405. (but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will
  1406. include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected CPU.
  1407. This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
  1408. command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
  1409. CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
  1410. clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
  1411. command line interface.
  1412. CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
  1413. CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka
  1414. bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware
  1415. support for I2C.
  1416. There are several other quantities that must also be
  1417. defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C.
  1418. In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
  1419. to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
  1420. to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
  1421. the CPU's i2c node address).
  1422. Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
  1423. (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
  1424. and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
  1425. eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
  1426. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
  1427. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
  1428. When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
  1429. chips might think that the current transfer is still
  1430. in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start
  1431. commands until the slave device responds.
  1432. That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
  1433. If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C)
  1434. then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
  1435. from include/configs/lwmon.h):
  1436. I2C_INIT
  1437. (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
  1438. controller or configure ports.
  1439. eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL)
  1440. I2C_PORT
  1441. (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
  1442. assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
  1443. are 0..3 for ports A..D.
  1444. I2C_ACTIVE
  1445. The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
  1446. (driven). If the data line is open collector, this
  1447. define can be null.
  1448. eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA)
  1449. I2C_TRISTATE
  1450. The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
  1451. (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this
  1452. define can be null.
  1453. eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
  1454. I2C_READ
  1455. Code that returns TRUE if the I2C data line is high,
  1456. FALSE if it is low.
  1457. eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
  1458. I2C_SDA(bit)
  1459. If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C data line high. If it
  1460. is FALSE, it clears it (low).
  1461. eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
  1462. if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \
  1463. else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
  1464. I2C_SCL(bit)
  1465. If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
  1466. is FALSE, it clears it (low).
  1467. eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
  1468. if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \
  1469. else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
  1470. I2C_DELAY
  1471. This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
  1472. controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus
  1473. is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
  1474. like:
  1475. #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2)
  1476. CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
  1477. If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
  1478. then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
  1479. used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
  1480. have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
  1481. You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
  1482. the generic GPIO functions.
  1483. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
  1484. When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
  1485. chips might think that the current transfer is still
  1486. in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
  1487. the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
  1488. processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
  1489. connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
  1490. custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
  1491. is run early in the boot sequence.
  1492. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
  1493. An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
  1494. defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
  1495. boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
  1496. is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
  1497. using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
  1498. controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
  1499. i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
  1500. controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
  1501. CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
  1502. This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
  1503. in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
  1504. variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
  1505. CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
  1506. This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
  1507. must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is
  1508. active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
  1509. Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
  1510. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
  1511. This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
  1512. when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
  1513. is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify
  1514. a 1D array of device addresses
  1515. e.g.
  1516. #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
  1517. #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
  1518. will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
  1519. #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
  1520. #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
  1521. will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
  1522. CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
  1523. If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
  1524. If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
  1525. CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
  1526. If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
  1527. If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
  1528. CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
  1529. If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
  1530. If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
  1531. CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
  1532. If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
  1533. If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
  1534. specified DTT device.
  1535. CONFIG_FSL_I2C
  1536. Define this option if you want to use Freescale's I2C driver in
  1537. drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c.
  1538. CONFIG_I2C_MUX
  1539. Define this option if you have I2C devices reached over 1 .. n
  1540. I2C Muxes like the pca9544a. This option addes a new I2C
  1541. Command "i2c bus [muxtype:muxaddr:muxchannel]" which adds a
  1542. new I2C Bus to the existing I2C Busses. If you select the
  1543. new Bus with "i2c dev", u-bbot sends first the commandos for
  1544. the muxes to activate this new "bus".
  1545. CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS must be also defined, to use this
  1546. feature!
  1547. Example:
  1548. Adding a new I2C Bus reached over 2 pca9544a muxes
  1549. The First mux with address 70 and channel 6
  1550. The Second mux with address 71 and channel 4
  1551. => i2c bus pca9544a:70:6:pca9544a:71:4
  1552. Use the "i2c bus" command without parameter, to get a list
  1553. of I2C Busses with muxes:
  1554. => i2c bus
  1555. Busses reached over muxes:
  1556. Bus ID: 2
  1557. reached over Mux(es):
  1558. pca9544a@70 ch: 4
  1559. Bus ID: 3
  1560. reached over Mux(es):
  1561. pca9544a@70 ch: 6
  1562. pca9544a@71 ch: 4
  1563. =>
  1564. If you now switch to the new I2C Bus 3 with "i2c dev 3"
  1565. u-boot first sends the command to the mux@70 to enable
  1566. channel 6, and then the command to the mux@71 to enable
  1567. the channel 4.
  1568. After that, you can use the "normal" i2c commands as
  1569. usual to communicate with your I2C devices behind
  1570. the 2 muxes.
  1571. This option is actually implemented for the bitbanging
  1572. algorithm in common/soft_i2c.c and for the Hardware I2C
  1573. Bus on the MPC8260. But it should be not so difficult
  1574. to add this option to other architectures.
  1575. CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
  1576. defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
  1577. the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
  1578. between writing the address pointer and reading the
  1579. data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour
  1580. of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C
  1581. devices can use either method, but some require one or
  1582. the other.
  1583. - SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI
  1584. Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
  1585. SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
  1586. D/As on the SACSng board)
  1587. CONFIG_SH_SPI
  1588. Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
  1589. only SH7757 is supported.
  1590. CONFIG_SPI_X
  1591. Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
  1592. (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
  1593. CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
  1594. Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
  1595. using hardware support. This is a general purpose
  1596. driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
  1597. (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
  1598. defined, the board configuration must define several
  1599. SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
  1600. an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
  1601. CONFIG_HARD_SPI
  1602. Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
  1603. and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
  1604. must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
  1605. Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an
  1606. example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
  1607. CONFIG_MXC_SPI
  1608. Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
  1609. SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
  1610. - FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
  1611. Enables FPGA subsystem.
  1612. CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
  1613. Enables support for specific chip vendors.
  1614. (ALTERA, XILINX)
  1615. CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
  1616. Enables support for FPGA family.
  1617. (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
  1618. CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
  1619. Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
  1620. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
  1621. Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
  1622. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
  1623. Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
  1624. status by the configuration function. This option
  1625. will require a board or device specific function to
  1626. be written.
  1627. CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
  1628. If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
  1629. configuration driver.
  1630. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
  1631. Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
  1632. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
  1633. Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
  1634. loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
  1635. configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
  1636. indicated a CRC error).
  1637. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
  1638. Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
  1639. after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
  1640. FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
  1641. ms.
  1642. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
  1643. Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
  1644. Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
  1645. CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
  1646. Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
  1647. 200 ms.
  1648. - Configuration Management:
  1649. CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
  1650. If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
  1651. version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
  1652. - Vendor Parameter Protection:
  1653. U-Boot considers the values of the environment
  1654. variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
  1655. "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
  1656. are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
  1657. protects these variables from casual modification by
  1658. the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
  1659. and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
  1660. change this behaviour:
  1661. If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
  1662. file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
  1663. completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
  1664. these parameters.
  1665. Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
  1666. _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
  1667. Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
  1668. which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
  1669. serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
  1670. read-only.]
  1671. - Protected RAM:
  1672. CONFIG_PRAM
  1673. Define this variable to enable the reservation of
  1674. "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
  1675. by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
  1676. kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
  1677. this default value by defining an environment
  1678. variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
  1679. reserve. Note that the board info structure will
  1680. still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
  1681. reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
  1682. automatically be defined to hold the amount of
  1683. remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
  1684. argument to Linux, for instance like that:
  1685. setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
  1686. saveenv
  1687. This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
  1688. either, which results in a memory region that will
  1689. not be affected by reboots.
  1690. *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
  1691. detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
  1692. this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
  1693. following board configurations are known to be
  1694. "pRAM-clean":
  1695. IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
  1696. HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
  1697. FLAGADM, TQM8260
  1698. - Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
  1699. Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
  1700. normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
  1701. support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
  1702. machines using physical address extension or similar.
  1703. Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
  1704. currently only supports clearing the memory.
  1705. - Error Recovery:
  1706. CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
  1707. Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
  1708. fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
  1709. This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
  1710. system where you want the system to reboot
  1711. automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
  1712. useful during development since you can try to debug
  1713. the conditions that lead to the situation.
  1714. CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
  1715. This variable defines the number of retries for
  1716. network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
  1717. before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
  1718. default value of 5 is used.
  1719. CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
  1720. Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
  1721. CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
  1722. Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
  1723. If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
  1724. try longer timeout such as
  1725. #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
  1726. - Command Interpreter:
  1727. CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
  1728. Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
  1729. Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
  1730. for the "hush" shell.
  1731. CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
  1732. Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
  1733. Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
  1734. powerful command line syntax like
  1735. if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
  1736. constructs ("shell scripts").
  1737. If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
  1738. with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
  1739. CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
  1740. This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
  1741. printed when the command interpreter needs more input
  1742. to complete a command. Usually "> ".
  1743. Note:
  1744. In the current implementation, the local variables
  1745. space and global environment variables space are
  1746. separated. Local variables are those you define by
  1747. simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
  1748. variable later on, you have write `$name' or
  1749. `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
  1750. directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
  1751. Global environment variables are those you use
  1752. setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
  1753. in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
  1754. and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
  1755. To store commands and special characters in a
  1756. variable, please use double quotation marks
  1757. surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
  1758. of the backslashes before semicolons and special
  1759. symbols.
  1760. - Commandline Editing and History:
  1761. CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
  1762. Enable editing and History functions for interactive
  1763. commandline input operations
  1764. - Default Environment:
  1765. CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
  1766. Define this to contain any number of null terminated
  1767. strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
  1768. the default environment compiled into the boot image.
  1769. For example, place something like this in your
  1770. board's config file:
  1771. #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
  1772. "myvar1=value1\0" \
  1773. "myvar2=value2\0"
  1774. Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
  1775. internal format how the environment is stored by the
  1776. U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
  1777. interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
  1778. will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
  1779. You better know what you are doing here.
  1780. Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
  1781. discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
  1782. the environment like the "source" command or the
  1783. boot command first.
  1784. CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
  1785. Define this in order to add variables describing the
  1786. U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
  1787. These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
  1788. Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
  1789. - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH
  1790. - CONFIG_SYS_CPU
  1791. - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD
  1792. - CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
  1793. - CONFIG_SYS_SOC
  1794. CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
  1795. Define this in order to add variables describing certain
  1796. run-time determined information about the hardware to the
  1797. environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev.
  1798. - DataFlash Support:
  1799. CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
  1800. Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
  1801. allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
  1802. commands cp, md...
  1803. - Serial Flash support
  1804. CONFIG_CMD_SF
  1805. Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
  1806. 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
  1807. Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
  1808. flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
  1809. commands.
  1810. The following defaults may be provided by the platform
  1811. to handle the common case when only a single serial
  1812. flash is present on the system.
  1813. CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier
  1814. CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select
  1815. CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h)
  1816. CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz
  1817. - SystemACE Support:
  1818. CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
  1819. Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
  1820. chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
  1821. of the chip must also be defined in the
  1822. CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
  1823. #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
  1824. #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
  1825. When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
  1826. becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
  1827. - TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
  1828. CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
  1829. If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
  1830. is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
  1831. If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
  1832. number generator is used.
  1833. Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
  1834. the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't
  1835. defined, the normal port 69 is used.
  1836. The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
  1837. blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
  1838. target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
  1839. "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
  1840. the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
  1841. A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
  1842. but sometimes that is not allowed.
  1843. - Show boot progress:
  1844. CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
  1845. Defining this option allows to add some board-
  1846. specific code (calling a user-provided function
  1847. "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
  1848. the system's boot progress on some display (for
  1849. example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
  1850. the following checkpoints are implemented:
  1851. - Detailed boot stage timing
  1852. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
  1853. Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
  1854. of the boot process.
  1855. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
  1856. This is the number of available user bootstage records.
  1857. Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
  1858. a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
  1859. the limit, recording will stop.
  1860. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
  1861. Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
  1862. Timer summary in microseconds:
  1863. Mark Elapsed Stage
  1864. 0 0 reset
  1865. 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start
  1866. 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9
  1867. 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done
  1868. 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start
  1869. 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop
  1870. 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start
  1871. 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel
  1872. CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
  1873. Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
  1874. and un/stashing of bootstage data.
  1875. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
  1876. Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
  1877. node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
  1878. has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
  1879. mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
  1880. accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
  1881. For example:
  1882. bootstage {
  1883. 154 {
  1884. name = "board_init_f";
  1885. mark = <3575678>;
  1886. };
  1887. 170 {
  1888. name = "lcd";
  1889. accum = <33482>;
  1890. };
  1891. };
  1892. Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

  2166. Modem Support:
  2167. --------------
  2168. [so far only for SMDK2400 boards]
  2169. - Modem support enable:
  2170. CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT
  2171. - RTS/CTS Flow control enable:
  2172. CONFIG_HWFLOW
  2173. - Modem debug support:
  2174. CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG
  2175. Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
  2176. for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
  2177. - Interrupt support (PPC):
  2178. There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
  2179. for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
  2180. for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
  2181. should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
  2182. CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
  2183. (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
  2184. timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
  2185. specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
  2186. / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
  2187. general timer_interrupt().
  2188. - General:
  2189. In the target system modem support is enabled when a
  2190. specific key (key combination) is pressed during
  2191. power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally
  2192. (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from
  2193. board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy
  2194. function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem
  2195. initialization.
  2196. If there are no modem init strings in the
  2197. environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the
  2198. previous output (banner, info printfs) will be
  2199. suppressed, though.
  2200. See also: doc/README.Modem
  2201. Board initialization settings:
  2202. ------------------------------
  2203. During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
  2204. to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
  2205. before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
  2206. following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
  2207. architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
  2208. typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
  2209. - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
  2210. - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
  2211. - CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
  2212. - CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
  2213. Configuration Settings:
  2214. -----------------------
  2215. - CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
  2216. undefine this when you're short of memory.
  2217. - CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
  2218. width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
  2219. - CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
  2220. prompt for user input.
  2221. - CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console
  2222. - CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output
  2223. - CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
  2224. - CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
  2225. the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
  2226. booted
  2227. - CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
  2228. List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
  2229. - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
  2230. Suppress display of console information at boot.
  2231. - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
  2232. If the board specific function
  2233. extern int overwrite_console (void);
  2234. returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the
  2235. serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.
  2236. - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
  2237. Enable the call to overwrite_console().
  2238. - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
  2239. Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
  2240. - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
  2241. Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
  2242. simple memory test.
  2243. - CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST:
  2244. Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.
  2245. - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
  2246. Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
  2247. You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
  2248. - CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):
  2249. If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
  2250. this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
  2251. (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
  2252. fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
  2253. the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
  2254. This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
  2255. board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
  2256. recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
  2257. will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
  2258. This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
  2259. CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
  2260. be touched.
  2261. WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
  2262. the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
  2263. then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
  2264. non page size aligned address and this could cause major
  2265. problems.
  2266. - CONFIG_SYS_TFTP_LOADADDR:
  2267. Default load address for network file downloads
  2268. - CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
  2269. Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
  2270. - CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
  2271. Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
  2272. - CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE:
  2273. Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
  2274. Cogent motherboard)
  2275. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
  2276. Physical start address of Flash memory.
  2277. - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
  2278. Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
  2279. make config files to be same as the text base address
  2280. (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
  2281. CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
  2282. - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
  2283. Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
  2284. determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
  2285. embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
  2286. flash sector.
  2287. - CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
  2288. Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
  2289. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
  2290. Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
  2291. uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
  2292. you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
  2293. to adjust this setting to your needs.
  2294. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
  2295. Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
  2296. the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
  2297. the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
  2298. used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
  2299. enviroment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
  2300. all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
  2301. and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment
  2302. variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
  2303. CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
  2304. then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
  2305. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
  2306. Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the
  2307. initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
  2308. is enabled.
  2309. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
  2310. Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
  2311. "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
  2312. - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
  2313. Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
  2314. space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
  2315. - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
  2316. Max number of Flash memory banks
  2317. - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
  2318. Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
  2319. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
  2320. Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
  2321. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
  2322. Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
  2323. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
  2324. Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
  2325. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
  2326. Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
  2327. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
  2328. If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
  2329. instead of U-Boot software protection.
  2330. - CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
  2331. Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
  2332. without this option such a download has to be
  2333. performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
  2334. copy from RAM to flash.
  2335. The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
  2336. you can check if the download worked before you erase
  2337. the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
  2338. too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
  2339. downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
  2340. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
  2341. Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
  2342. common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
  2343. - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
  2344. This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
  2345. in the drivers directory
  2346. - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
  2347. This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
  2348. in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
  2349. to the MTD layer.
  2350. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
  2351. Use buffered writes to flash.
  2352. - CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
  2353. s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
  2354. write commands.
  2355. - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
  2356. If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
  2357. print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
  2358. is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
  2359. optionally available.
  2360. - CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
  2361. If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
  2362. digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
  2363. column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
  2364. - CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
  2365. Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
  2366. Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
  2367. to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
  2368. buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
  2369. on high Ethernet traffic.
  2370. Defaults to 4 if not defined.
  2371. - CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
  2372. Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
  2373. internally to store the environment settings. The default
  2374. setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
  2375. cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
  2376. lib/hashtable.c for details.
  2377. The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
  2378. of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
  2379. following configurations:
  2380. - CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
  2381. Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
  2382. may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
  2383. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:
  2384. Define this if the environment is in flash memory.
  2385. a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
  2386. "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
  2387. happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
  2388. sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
  2389. sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
  2390. layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
  2391. such a case you would place the environment in one of the
  2392. 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
  2393. "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
  2394. environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
  2395. between U-Boot and the environment.
  2396. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
  2397. Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
  2398. beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
  2399. type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
  2400. for this sector is given here.
  2401. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
  2402. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
  2403. This is just another way to specify the start address of
  2404. the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
  2405. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
  2406. - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
  2407. Size of the sector containing the environment.
  2408. b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
  2409. In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
  2410. the environment.
  2411. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2412. If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
  2413. and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
  2414. of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
  2415. memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
  2416. It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
  2417. when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
  2418. since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
  2419. for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
  2420. STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
  2421. updating the environment in flash makes it always
  2422. necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
  2423. wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
  2424. RAM, your target system will be dead.
  2425. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
  2426. CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
  2427. These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
  2428. a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
  2429. a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
  2430. a "saveenv" operation.
  2431. BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
  2432. source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
  2433. accordingly!
  2434. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:
  2435. Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device
  2436. (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the
  2437. environment.
  2438. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
  2439. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2440. These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you
  2441. want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory
  2442. can just be read and written to, without any special
  2443. provision.
  2444. BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
  2445. in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the
  2446. console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
  2447. U-Boot will hang.
  2448. Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
  2449. environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
  2450. keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
  2451. to save the current settings.
  2452. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:
  2453. Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access
  2454. device and a driver for it.
  2455. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
  2456. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2457. These two #defines specify the offset and size of the
  2458. environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.
  2459. - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:
  2460. If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.
  2461. The default address is zero.
  2462. - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:
  2463. If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a
  2464. single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example
  2465. would require six bits.
  2466. - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:
  2467. If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between
  2468. page writes. The default is zero milliseconds.
  2469. - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:
  2470. The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note
  2471. that this is NOT the chip address length!
  2472. - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:
  2473. EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones
  2474. like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of
  2475. address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit
  2476. slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256
  2477. byte chips.
  2478. Note that we consider the length of the address field to
  2479. still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden
  2480. in the chip address.
  2481. - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
  2482. The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
  2483. - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
  2484. define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
  2485. EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
  2486. - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
  2487. if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
  2488. I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
  2489. EEPROM. For example:
  2490. #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS "pca9547:70:d\0"
  2491. EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
  2492. a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
  2493. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
  2494. Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you
  2495. want to use for the environment.
  2496. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
  2497. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
  2498. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2499. These three #defines specify the offset and size of the
  2500. environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed
  2501. at the specified address.
  2502. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE:
  2503. Define this if you have a remote memory space which you
  2504. want to use for the local device's environment.
  2505. - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
  2506. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2507. These two #defines specify the address and size of the
  2508. environment area within the remote memory space. The
  2509. local device can get the environment from remote memory
  2510. space by SRIO or PCIE links.
  2511. BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
  2512. "saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
  2513. environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
  2514. but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
  2515. - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:
  2516. Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use
  2517. for the environment.
  2518. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
  2519. - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
  2520. These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
  2521. area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be
  2522. aligned to an erase block boundary.
  2523. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
  2524. This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
  2525. size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
  2526. that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
  2527. during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be
  2528. aligned to an erase block boundary.
  2529. - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
  2530. Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
  2531. can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
  2532. block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
  2533. are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
  2534. the range to be avoided.
  2535. - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
  2536. Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
  2537. environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The
  2538. "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
  2539. Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
  2540. using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
  2541. - CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
  2542. Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
  2543. environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
  2544. CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
  2545. - CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
  2546. Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
  2547. area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment
  2548. is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte
  2549. scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization
  2550. calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems
  2551. to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the
  2552. start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.
  2553. Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
  2554. has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
  2555. created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f()
  2556. until then to read environment variables.
  2557. The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
  2558. is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
  2559. with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
  2560. necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
  2561. "baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
  2562. have any device yet where we could complain.]
  2563. Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
  2564. the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
  2565. use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
  2566. - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
  2567. Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
  2568. Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
  2569. also needs to be defined.
  2570. - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
  2571. MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
  2572. - CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
  2573. Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
  2574. and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
  2575. drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving
  2576. space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
  2577. limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
  2578. Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
  2579. ---------------------------------------------------
  2580. - CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
  2581. Cache Line Size of the CPU.
  2582. - CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR:
  2583. Default address of the IMMR after system reset.
  2584. Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,
  2585. and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of
  2586. the IMMR register after a reset.
  2587. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
  2588. Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
  2589. PowerPC SOCs.
  2590. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
  2591. Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically
  2592. the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
  2593. CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value,
  2594. for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead.
  2595. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
  2596. Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new
  2597. physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should
  2598. be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the
  2599. same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR
  2600. is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended
  2601. that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
  2602. #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
  2603. * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
  2604. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
  2605. Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically
  2606. either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is
  2607. used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
  2608. integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
  2609. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
  2610. Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is
  2611. used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
  2612. integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
  2613. - CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
  2614. If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
  2615. forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
  2616. - Floppy Disk Support:
  2617. CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
  2618. the default drive number (default value 0)
  2619. CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
  2620. defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
  2621. (default value 1)
  2622. CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
  2623. defines the offset of register from address. It
  2624. depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
  2625. the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
  2626. If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
  2627. CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
  2628. default value.
  2629. if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
  2630. fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
  2631. setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
  2632. source code. It is used to make hardware dependant
  2633. initializations.
  2634. - CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
  2635. Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
  2636. interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
  2637. When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
  2638. IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
  2639. registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
  2640. is requierd.
  2641. - CONFIG_SYS_IMMR: Physical address of the Internal Memory.
  2642. DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
  2643. doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]
  2644. - CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
  2645. Start address of memory area that can be used for
  2646. initial data and stack; please note that this must be
  2647. writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
  2648. initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
  2649. will become available only after programming the
  2650. memory controller and running certain initialization
  2651. sequences.
  2652. U-Boot uses the following memory types:
  2653. - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
  2654. - MPC824X: data cache
  2655. - PPC4xx: data cache
  2656. - CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
  2657. Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
  2658. area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
  2659. CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
  2660. data is located at the end of the available space
  2661. (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
  2662. CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
  2663. below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
  2664. CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
  2665. Note:
  2666. On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
  2667. cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
  2668. CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
  2669. point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
  2670. the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

  2722. - CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
  2723. Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
  2724. required.
  2725. - CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
  2726. Only scan through and get the devices on the busses.
  2727. Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
  2728. something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
  2729. a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
  2730. by coreboot or similar.
  2731. - CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
  2732. Chip has SRIO or not
  2733. - CONFIG_SRIO1:
  2734. Board has SRIO 1 port available
  2735. - CONFIG_SRIO2:

  2748. a default value will be used.
  2749. - CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM
  2750. Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common
  2751. with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
  2752. SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
  2753. I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
  2754. - CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
  2755. If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
  2756. one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
  2757. to something your driver can deal with.
  2758. - CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
  2759. Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
  2760. soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
  2761. parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
  2762. header files or board specific files.
  2763. - CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
  2764. Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
  2765. - CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
  2766. Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
  2767. be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
  2768. - CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]
  2769. Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.
  2770. - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY
  2771. Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds
  2772. to the given FEC; i. e.
  2773. #define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4
  2774. means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1
  2775. When set to -1, means to probe for first available.
  2776. - CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR
  2777. The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).
  2778. (so program the FEC to ignore it).
  2779. - CONFIG_RMII
  2780. Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
  2781. Note that this is a global option, we can't
  2782. have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
  2783. - CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
  2784. Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
  2785. The syntax is:
  2786. => crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
  2787. Where address/count indicate a memory area
  2788. and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
  2789. area should have.
  2790. - CONFIG_LOOPW
  2791. Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
  2792. the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
  2793. - CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
  2794. Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
  2795. "md/mw" commands.
  2796. Examples:
  2797. => mdc.b 10 4 500
  2798. This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
  2799. => mwc.l 100 12345678 10
  2800. This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
  2801. This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
  2802. globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).
  2803. - CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
  2804. [ARM, NDS32, MIPS only] If this variable is defined, then certain
  2805. low level initializations (like setting up the memory
  2806. controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
  2807. relocate itself into RAM.
  2808. Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
  2809. exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
  2810. other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
  2811. these initializations itself.
  2812. - CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
  2813. Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
  2814. that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
  2815. compiling a NAND SPL.
  2816. - CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
  2817. CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
  2818. If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
  2819. be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
  2820. conditions but may increase the binary size.
  2821. - CONFIG_X86_NO_RESET_VECTOR
  2822. If defined, the x86 reset vector code is excluded. You will need
  2823. to do this when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
  2824. - CONFIG_X86_NO_REAL_MODE
  2825. If defined, x86 real mode code is omitted. This assumes a
  2826. 32-bit environment where such code is not needed. You will
  2827. need to do this when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
  2828. Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
  2829. -----------------------------------
  2830. The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
  2831. loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
  2832. This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
  2833. are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
  2834. within that device.
  2835. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR
  2836. The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The
  2837. meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
  2838. is also specified.
  2839. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
  2840. The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format
  2841. has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
  2842. might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
  2843. local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
  2844. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
  2845. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
  2846. normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
  2847. virtual address in NOR flash.
  2848. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
  2849. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
  2850. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
  2851. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
  2852. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
  2853. device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
  2854. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH
  2855. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI
  2856. device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
  2857. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
  2858. Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
  2859. memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
  2860. can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
  2861. window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
  2862. master's memory space.
  2863. Building the Software:
  2864. ======================
  2865. Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
  2866. and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
  2867. all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
  2868. (potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
  2869. recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
  2870. which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
  2871. If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
  2872. have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
  2873. you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
  2874. Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
  2875. necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
  2876. $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
  2877. $ export CROSS_COMPILE
  2878. Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
  2879. the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
  2880. (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
  2881. toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example:
  2882. $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
  2883. Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
  2884. be executed on computers running Windows.
  2885. U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
  2886. sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
  2887. is done by typing:
  2888. make NAME_config
  2889. where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-
  2890. rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
  2891. Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
  2892. additional information is available from the board vendor; for
  2893. instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
  2894. or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
  2895. when choosing the configuration, i. e.
  2896. make TQM823L_config
  2897. - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
  2898. make TQM823L_LCD_config
  2899. - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
  2900. etc.
  2901. Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
  2902. images ready for download to / installation on your system:
  2903. - "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
  2904. - "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
  2905. - "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
  2906. By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
  2907. in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
  2908. this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
  2909. 1. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
  2910. make O=/tmp/build distclean
  2911. make O=/tmp/build NAME_config
  2912. make O=/tmp/build all
  2913. 2. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:
  2914. export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
  2915. make distclean
  2916. make NAME_config
  2917. make all
  2918. Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment
  2919. variable.
  2920. Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
  2921. for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
  2922. native "make".
  2923. If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
  2924. to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
  2925. steps:
  2926. 1. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
  2927. "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples.
  2928. Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order.
  2929. 2. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
  2930. files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
  2931. the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
  2932. 3. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
  2933. your board
  2934. 3. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
  2935. directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
  2936. 4. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
  2937. 5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
  2938. to be installed on your target system.
  2939. 6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
  2940. [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
  2941. Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
  2942. ==============================================================
  2943. If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
  2944. or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
  2945. provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
  2946. the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
  2947. official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
  2948. But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
  2949. cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
  2950. the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
  2951. just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot
  2952. for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can
  2953. select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'
  2954. environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools
  2955. you can type
  2956. CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
  2957. or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type
  2958. CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL
  2959. When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build
  2960. U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by
  2961. setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target
  2962. built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and
  2963. <target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default
  2964. location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment
  2965. variable. For example:
  2966. export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build
  2967. export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log
  2968. CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL
  2969. With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,
  2970. log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean
  2971. during the whole build process.
  2972. See also "U-Boot Porting Guide" below.

  3020. ========================================
  3021. TODO.
  3022. For now: just type "help <command>".
  3023. Environment Variables:
  3024. ======================
  3025. U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
  3026. can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
  3027. Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
  3028. "printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
  3029. without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
  3030. environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
  3031. working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
  3032. environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
  3033. Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
  3034. List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
  3035. baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
  3036. bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
  3037. bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
  3038. bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
  3039. bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP
  3040. bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
  3041. command can be restricted. This variable is given as
  3042. a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
  3043. for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
  3044. environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
  3045. also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
  3046. kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
  3047. bootm_mapsize.
  3048. bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
  3049. This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
  3050. defines the size of the memory region starting at base
  3051. address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
  3052. during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
  3053. as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
  3054. used otherwise.
  3055. bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
  3056. command can be restricted. This variable is given as
  3057. a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
  3058. allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
  3059. environment variable.
  3060. updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
  3061. by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
  3062. documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
  3063. autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
  3064. "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
  3065. configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
  3066. load any image using TFTP
  3067. autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
  3068. "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
  3069. be automatically started (by internally calling
  3070. "bootm")
  3071. If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
  3072. "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
  3073. (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
  3074. This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
  3075. data.
  3076. fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the
  3077. flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
  3078. For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
  3079. at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
  3080. only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
  3081. may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
  3082. device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
  3083. of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
  3084. access it during the boot procedure.
  3085. If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
  3086. the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this
  3087. to work it must reside in writable memory, have
  3088. sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
  3089. add the information it needs into it, and the memory
  3090. must be accessible by the kernel.
  3091. fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
  3092. device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
  3093. defined.
  3094. i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
  3095. if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
  3096. mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
  3097. initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
  3098. it must be saved and board must be reset.
  3099. initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images:
  3100. If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
  3101. copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
  3102. is usually what you want since it allows for
  3103. maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
  3104. make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
  3105. CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
  3106. variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
  3107. Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
  3108. address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
  3109. does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
  3110. For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
  3111. RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
  3112. you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
  3113. the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
  3114. sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
  3115. 12 MB as well - this can be done with
  3116. setenv initrd_high 00c00000
  3117. If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
  3118. indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
  3119. for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
  3120. memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
  3121. ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
  3122. boot time on your system, but requires that this
  3123. feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
  3124. ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command
  3125. loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp",
  3126. "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
  3127. loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
  3128. serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
  3129. bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
  3130. bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
  3131. bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
  3132. ethprime - controls which interface is used first.
  3133. ethact - controls which interface is currently active.
  3134. For example you can do the following
  3135. => setenv ethact FEC
  3136. => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
  3137. => setenv ethact SCC
  3138. => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
  3139. ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
  3140. available network interfaces.
  3141. It just stays at the currently selected interface.
  3142. netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will
  3143. either succeed or fail without retrying.
  3144. When set to "once" the network operation will
  3145. fail when all the available network interfaces
  3146. are tried once without success.
  3147. Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
  3148. themselves.
  3149. npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode
  3150. tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
  3151. UDP source port.
  3152. tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
  3153. destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
  3154. tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
  3155. we use the TFTP server's default block size
  3156. tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
  3157. seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
  3158. when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
  3159. be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
  3160. Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
  3161. faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
  3162. with unreliable TFTP servers.
  3163. vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
  3164. Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
  3165. VLAN tagged frames.
  3166. The following image location variables contain the location of images
  3167. used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
  3168. not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
  3169. variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
  3170. server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
  3171. loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
  3172. flash or offset in NAND flash.
  3173. *Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
  3174. boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some
  3175. boards use these variables for other purposes.
  3176. Image File Name RAM Address Flash Location
  3177. ----- --------- ----------- --------------
  3178. u-boot u-boot u-boot_addr_r u-boot_addr
  3179. Linux kernel bootfile kernel_addr_r kernel_addr
  3180. device tree blob fdtfile fdt_addr_r fdt_addr
  3181. ramdisk ramdiskfile ramdisk_addr_r ramdisk_addr
  3182. The following environment variables may be used and automatically
  3183. updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
  3184. depending the information provided by your boot server:
  3185. bootfile - see above
  3186. dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server
  3187. dnsip2 - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
  3188. gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
  3189. hostname - Target hostname
  3190. ipaddr - see above
  3191. netmask - Subnet Mask
  3192. rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
  3193. serverip - see above
  3194. There are two special Environment Variables:
  3195. serial# - contains hardware identification information such
  3196. as type string and/or serial number
  3197. ethaddr - Ethernet address
  3198. These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
  3199. the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
  3200. once they have been set once.
  3201. Further special Environment Variables:
  3202. ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
  3203. with the "version" command. This variable is
  3204. readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
  3205. Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
  3206. only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
  3207. Command Line Parsing:
  3208. =====================
  3209. There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
  3210. the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
  3211. Old, simple command line parser:
  3212. --------------------------------
  3213. - supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
  3214. - several commands on one line, separated by ';'
  3215. - variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
  3216. - special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
  3217. for example:
  3218. setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
  3219. - You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
  3220. setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
  3221. Hush shell:
  3222. -----------
  3223. - similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
  3224. if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
  3225. until...do...done, ...
  3226. - supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
  3227. commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
  3228. "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
  3229. command
  3230. General rules:
  3231. --------------
  3232. (1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
  3233. command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
  3234. one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
  3235. executed anyway.
  3236. (2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
  3237. calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
  3238. command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
  3239. variables are not executed.
  3240. Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
  3241. =======================================
  3242. Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
  3243. such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
  3244. "working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
  3245. Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
  3246. MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
  3247. "eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
  3248. If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
  3249. in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
  3250. ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
  3251. variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
  3252. o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
  3253. environment, the SROM's address is used.
  3254. o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
  3255. environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
  3256. used.
  3257. o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
  3258. both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
  3259. o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
  3260. addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
  3261. warning is printed.
  3262. o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
  3263. is raised.
  3264. If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
  3265. will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This
  3266. may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
  3267. The naming convention is as follows:
  3268. "ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
  3269. Image Formats:
  3270. ==============
  3271. U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
  3272. images in two formats:
  3273. New uImage format (FIT)
  3274. -----------------------
  3275. Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
  3276. to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
  3277. components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
  3278. SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
  3279. Old uImage format
  3280. -----------------
  3281. Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
  3282. preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
  3283. details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
  3284. * Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
  3285. 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
  3286. LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
  3287. Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
  3288. INTEGRITY).
  3289. * Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,
  3290. IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
  3291. Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
  3292. * Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
  3293. * Load Address
  3294. * Entry Point
  3295. * Image Name
  3296. * Image Timestamp
  3297. The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
  3298. and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
  3299. CRC32 checksums.
  3300. Linux Support:
  3301. ==============
  3302. Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
  3303. easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
  3304. U-Boot.
  3305. U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
  3306. special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
  3307. "initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
  3308. instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
  3309. serves several purposes:
  3310. - the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
  3311. applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
  3312. Flash memory footprint)
  3313. - it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
  3314. lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
  3315. - the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
  3316. images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
  3317. be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
  3318. have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
  3319. change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
  3320. software is easier now.
  3321. Linux HOWTO:
  3322. ============
  3323. Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
  3324. ---------------------------------------
  3325. U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
  3326. configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
  3327. (no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
  3328. Linux :-).
  3329. But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
  3330. Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
  3331. include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
  3332. Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
  3333. and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
  3334. as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
  3335. Configuring the Linux kernel:
  3336. -----------------------------
  3337. No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
  3338. device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
  3339. Building a Linux Image:
  3340. -----------------------
  3341. With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
  3342. not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
  3343. "uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
  3344. U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
  3345. which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
  3346. 100% compatible format.
  3347. Example:
  3348. make TQM850L_config
  3349. make oldconfig
  3350. make dep
  3351. make uImage
  3352. The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
  3353. encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information,
  3354. CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
  3355. * build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
  3356. * convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
  3357. ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
  3358. -R .note -R .comment \
  3359. -S vmlinux linux.bin
  3360. * compress the binary image:
  3361. gzip -9 linux.bin
  3362. * package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
  3363. mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
  3364. -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
  3365. -d linux.bin.gz uImage
  3366. The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
  3367. with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
  3368. combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
  3369. byte header containing information about target architecture,
  3370. operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
  3371. stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
  3372. "mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
  3373. print the header information, or to build new images.
  3374. In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
  3375. contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
  3376. checksum verification:
  3377. tools/mkimage -l image
  3378. -l ==> list image header information
  3379. The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
  3380. from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
  3381. tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
  3382. -n name -d data_file image
  3383. -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
  3384. -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
  3385. -T ==> set image type to 'type'
  3386. -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
  3387. -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
  3388. -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
  3389. -n ==> set image name to 'name'
  3390. -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
  3391. Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
  3392. address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
  3393. kernel version:
  3394. - 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
  3395. - 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
  3396. So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
  3397. -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
  3398. > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
  3399. > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
  3400. > examples/uImage.TQM850L

  3402. Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
  3403. Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
  3404. Data Size: 335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
  3405. Load Address: 0x00000000
  3406. Entry Point: 0x00000000
  3407. To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
  3408. -> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
  3409. Image Name: 2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
  3410. Created: Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000

  3413. Load Address: 0x00000000
  3414. Entry Point: 0x00000000
  3415. NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
  3416. speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
  3417. needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
  3418. need to be uncompressed:
  3419. -> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
  3420. -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
  3421. > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
  3422. > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \

  3428. Load Address: 0x00000000
  3429. Entry Point: 0x00000000
  3430. Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
  3431. when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
  3432. -> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
  3433. > -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
  3434. > -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd

  3438. Data Size: 566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
  3439. Load Address: 0x00000000
  3440. Entry Point: 0x00000000
  3441. Installing a Linux Image:
  3442. -------------------------
  3443. To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
  3444. you must convert the image to S-Record format:
  3445. objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
  3446. The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
  3447. image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
  3448. address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
  3449. specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
  3450. command.
  3451. Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
  3452. TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
  3453. => erase 40100000 401FFFFF
  3454. .......... done
  3455. Erased 8 sectors
  3456. => loads 40100000
  3457. ## Ready for S-Record download ...

  3464. ## Start Addr = 0x00000000
  3465. You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
  3466. this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
  3467. corruption happened:
  3468. => imi 40100000

  3476. Boot Linux:
  3477. -----------
  3478. The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
  3479. memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
  3480. of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
  3481. parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
  3482. "printenv" and "setenv" commands:
  3483. => printenv bootargs
  3484. bootargs=root=/dev/ram
  3485. => setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2
  3486. => printenv bootargs
  3487. bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

  3591. More About U-Boot Image Types:
  3592. ------------------------------
  3593. U-Boot supports the following image types:
  3594. "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
  3595. provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
  3596. well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
  3597. the Standalone Program.
  3598. "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
  3599. will take over control completely. Usually these programs
  3600. will install their own set of exception handlers, device
  3601. drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
  3602. expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
  3603. "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
  3604. parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
  3605. being started.
  3606. "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
  3607. (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
  3608. RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
  3609. to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
  3610. server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
  3611. for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
  3612. "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
  3613. image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
  3614. byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
  3615. Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
  3616. one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
  3617. a multiple of 4 bytes).
  3618. "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
  3619. U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
  3620. flash memory.
  3621. "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
  3622. U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
  3623. useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
  3624. as command interpreter.
  3625. Booting the Linux zImage:
  3626. -------------------------
  3627. On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
  3628. using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
  3629. as the syntax of "bootm" command.
  3630. Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_INITRD_RAW allows user to supply
  3631. kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
  3632. address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
  3633. format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
  3634. Standalone HOWTO:
  3635. =================
  3636. One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
  3637. run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
  3638. U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
  3639. Two simple examples are included with the sources:
  3640. "Hello World" Demo:
  3641. -------------------
  3642. 'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
  3643. application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
  3644. It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
  3645. like that:
  3646. => loads
  3647. ## Ready for S-Record download ...
  3648. ~>examples/hello_world.srec
  3649. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
  3650. [file transfer complete]
  3651. [connected]
  3652. ## Start Addr = 0x00040004
  3653. => go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
  3654. ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
  3655. Hello World
  3656. argc = 7
  3657. argv[0] = "40004"
  3658. argv[1] = "Hello"
  3659. argv[2] = "World!"
  3660. argv[3] = "This"
  3661. argv[4] = "is"
  3662. argv[5] = "a"
  3663. argv[6] = "test."
  3664. argv[7] = "<NULL>"
  3665. Hit any key to exit ...
  3666. ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
  3667. Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
  3668. handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
  3669. Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
  3670. The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
  3671. character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
  3672. controlled by the following keys:
  3673. ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
  3674. b - enable interrupts and start timer
  3675. e - stop timer and disable interrupts
  3676. q - quit application

  3708. Minicom warning:
  3709. ================
  3710. Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
  3711. "minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
  3712. consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
  3713. Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
  3714. especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
  3715. use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See
  3716. http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
  3717. for help with kermit.
  3718. Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
  3719. configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
  3720. Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
  3721. X kermit /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s Y U Y N N
  3722. Y kermit /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r N D Y N N
  3723. NetBSD Notes:
  3724. =============
  3725. Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
  3726. (build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
  3727. Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
  3728. NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
  3729. need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
  3730. Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
  3731. attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
  3732. missing. This file has to be installed and patched manually:
  3733. # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
  3734. # mkdir powerpc
  3735. # ln -s powerpc machine
  3736. # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
  3737. # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
  3738. Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
  3739. and U-Boot include files.
  3740. Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
  3741. stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
  3742. proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
  3743. tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
  3744. meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
  3745. Implementation Internals:
  3746. =========================
  3747. The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
  3748. implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
  3749. inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
  3750. hardware.
  3751. Initial Stack, Global Data:
  3752. ---------------------------
  3753. The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
  3754. starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
  3755. system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
  3756. This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
  3757. is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
  3758. at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
  3759. options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
  3760. models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
  3761. MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
  3762. locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
  3763. Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
  3764. U-Boot mailing list:

  3768. ...
  3769. Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
  3770. is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
  3771. require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
  3772. is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
  3773. necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
  3774. beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
  3775. can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
  3776. operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
  3777. OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
  3778. is another option for the system designer to use as an
  3779. initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
  3780. option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
  3781. board designers haven't used it for something that would
  3782. cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
  3783. used.
  3784. CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
  3785. with your processor/board/system design. The default value
  3786. you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
  3787. walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
  3788. than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
  3789. it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
  3790. that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
  3791. start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
  3792. you get the config right.

  3795. It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
  3796. code for the initialization procedures:
  3797. * Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
  3798. to write it.
  3799. * Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized
  3800. as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
  3801. zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
  3802. * Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
  3803. that.
  3804. Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
  3805. normal global data to share information beween the code. But it
  3806. turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
  3807. simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
  3808. functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
  3809. functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
  3810. the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
  3811. place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
  3812. reserve for this purpose.
  3813. When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
  3814. relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by
  3815. GCC's implementation.
  3816. For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
  3817. R1: stack pointer
  3818. R2: reserved for system use
  3819. R3-R4: parameter passing and return values
  3820. R5-R10: parameter passing
  3821. R13: small data area pointer
  3822. R30: GOT pointer
  3823. R31: frame pointer
  3824. (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
  3825. is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
  3826. going back and forth between asm and C)
  3827. ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
  3828. Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
  3829. address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
  3830. but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
  3831. smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
  3832. average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
  3833. 624 text + 127 data).
  3834. On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
  3835. http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
  3836. ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
  3837. On ARM, the following registers are used:
  3838. R0: function argument word/integer result
  3839. R1-R3: function argument word
  3840. R9: GOT pointer
  3841. R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking if enabled)
  3842. R11: argument (frame) pointer
  3843. R12: temporary workspace
  3844. R13: stack pointer
  3845. R14: link register
  3846. R15: program counter
  3847. ==> U-Boot will use R8 to hold a pointer to the global data
  3848. On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:
  3849. http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf
  3850. ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
  3851. Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
  3852. to access small data sections, so gp is free.
  3853. On NDS32, the following registers are used:
  3854. R0-R1: argument/return
  3855. R2-R5: argument
  3856. R15: temporary register for assembler
  3857. R16: trampoline register
  3858. R28: frame pointer (FP)
  3859. R29: global pointer (GP)
  3860. R30: link register (LP)
  3861. R31: stack pointer (SP)
  3862. PC: program counter (PC)
  3863. ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
  3864. NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
  3865. or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
  3866. Memory Management:
  3867. ------------------
  3868. U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
  3869. MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
  3870. The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
  3871. controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
  3872. memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
  3873. physical memory banks.
  3874. U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
  3875. TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
  3876. booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
  3877. to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
  3878. memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
  3879. configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
  3880. Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
  3881. Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
  3882. of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
  3883. So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
  3884. this:
  3885. 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code
  3886. :
  3887. 0x0000 1FFF
  3888. 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use
  3889. :
  3890. :
  3891. :
  3892. :
  3893. 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
  3894. 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
  3895. 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena
  3896. :
  3897. 0x00FD FFFF
  3898. 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code
  3899. ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
  3900. ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
  3901. 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM]
  3902. System Initialization:
  3903. ----------------------
  3904. In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
  3905. (on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
  3906. configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.
  3907. To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
  3908. To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
  3909. initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
  3910. which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked
  3911. part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,
  3912. the caches and the SIU.
  3913. Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
  3914. preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
  3915. (multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
  3916. on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
  3917. programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
  3918. simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
  3919. banks.
  3920. When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
  3921. different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
  3922. bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
  3923. 0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
  3924. contiguous memory starting from 0.
  3925. Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
  3926. and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
  3927. Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
  3928. pages, and the final stack is set up.
  3929. Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
  3930. until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
  3931. running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
  3932. new address in RAM.

  3991. Coding Standards:
  3992. -----------------
  3993. All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
  3994. coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script
  3995. "scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
  3996. Source files originating from a different project (for example the
  3997. MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
  3998. reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
  3999. sources.
  4000. Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
  4001. Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
  4002. in your code.
  4003. Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
  4004. - remove any trailing white space
  4005. - use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
  4006. - make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
  4007. - do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
  4008. - do not add trailing empty lines to source files
  4009. Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
  4010. with a request to reformat the changes.
  4011. Submitting Patches:
  4012. -------------------
  4013. Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
  4014. establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
  4015. may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
  4016. Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
  4017. Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
  4018. see http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
  4019. When you send a patch, please include the following information with
  4020. it:
  4021. * For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
  4022. this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
  4023. patch actually fixes something.
  4024. * For new features: a description of the feature and your
  4025. implementation.
  4026. * A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
  4027. * For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file
  4028. * When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add this
  4029. board to the MAINTAINERS file, too.
  4030. * If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
  4031. document these in the README file.
  4032. * The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
  4033. recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
  4034. "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
  4035. the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
  4036. with some other mail clients.
  4037. If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
  4038. diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
  4039. GNU diff.
  4040. The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
  4041. directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
  4042. your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
  4043. affected files).
  4044. We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
  4045. and compressed attachments must not be used.
  4046. * If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
  4047. files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
  4048. * Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
  4049. submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
  4050. Notes:
  4051. * Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched
  4052. source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
  4053. for any of the boards.
  4054. * Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
  4055. containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
  4056. returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
  4057. * If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
  4058. add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
  4059. When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
  4060. (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
  4061. disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
  4062. modification.
  4063. * Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
  4064. u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
  4065. reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
  4066. bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
