6Summary:
7========
8
9This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
10Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
11processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
12initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
13code.
14
15The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
16the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
17header files in common, and special provision has been made to
18support booting of Linux images.
19
20Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
21configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
22implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
23add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
24code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
25load and run it dynamically.
26
27
28Status:
29=======
30
31In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
32Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
33"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.
34
35In case of problems see the CHANGELOG file to find out who contributed
36the specific port. In addition, there are various MAINTAINERS files
37scattered throughout the U-Boot source identifying the people or
38companies responsible for various boards and subsystems.
39
40Note: As of August, 2010, there is no longer a CHANGELOG file in the
41actual U-Boot source tree; however, it can be created dynamically
42from the Git log using:
43
44	make CHANGELOG

167
168Software Configuration:
169=======================
170
171Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
172rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
173
174There are two classes of configuration variables:
175
176* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
177  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
178  "CONFIG_".
179
180* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
181  These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
182  you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
183  "CONFIG_SYS_".
184
185Previously, all configuration was done by hand, which involved creating
186symbolic links and editing configuration files manually. More recently,
187U-Boot has added the Kbuild infrastructure used by the Linux kernel,
188allowing you to use the "make menuconfig" command to configure your
189build.
190
191
192Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
193---------------------------------------------------
194
195For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
196configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_defconfig".
197
198Example: For a TQM823L module type:
199
200	cd u-boot
201	make TQM823L_defconfig
202
203Note: If you're looking for the default configuration file for a board
204you're sure used to be there but is now missing, check the file
205doc/README.scrapyard for a list of no longer supported boards.
206
207Sandbox Environment:
208--------------------
209
210U-Boot can be built natively to run on a Linux host using the 'sandbox'
211board. This allows feature development which is not board- or architecture-
212specific to be undertaken on a native platform. The sandbox is also used to
213run some of U-Boot's tests.
214
215See board/sandbox/README.sandbox for more details.
216
217
218Board Initialisation Flow:
219--------------------------
220
221This is the intended start-up flow for boards. This should apply for both
222SPL and U-Boot proper (i.e. they both follow the same rules).
223
224Note: "SPL" stands for "Secondary Program Loader," which is explained in
225more detail later in this file.
226
227At present, SPL mostly uses a separate code path, but the function names
228and roles of each function are the same. Some boards or architectures
229may not conform to this.  At least most ARM boards which use
230CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK conform to this.
231
232Execution typically starts with an architecture-specific (and possibly
233CPU-specific) start.S file, such as:
234
235	- arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S
236	- arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc83xx/start.S
237	- arch/mips/cpu/start.S
238
239and so on. From there, three functions are called; the purpose and
240limitations of each of these functions are described below.
241
242lowlevel_init():
243	- purpose: essential init to permit execution to reach board_init_f()
244	- no global_data or BSS
245	- there is no stack (ARMv7 may have one but it will soon be removed)
246	- must not set up SDRAM or use console
247	- must only do the bare minimum to allow execution to continue to
248		board_init_f()
249	- this is almost never needed
250	- return normally from this function
251
252board_init_f():
253	- purpose: set up the machine ready for running board_init_r():
254		i.e. SDRAM and serial UART
255	- global_data is available
256	- stack is in SRAM
257	- BSS is not available, so you cannot use global/static variables,
258		only stack variables and global_data
259
260	Non-SPL-specific notes:
261	- dram_init() is called to set up DRAM. If already done in SPL this
262		can do nothing
263
264	SPL-specific notes:
265	- you can override the entire board_init_f() function with your own
266		version as needed.
267	- preloader_console_init() can be called here in extremis
268	- should set up SDRAM, and anything needed to make the UART work
269	- these is no need to clear BSS, it will be done by crt0.S
270	- must return normally from this function (don't call board_init_r()
271		directly)
272
273Here the BSS is cleared. For SPL, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined, then at
274this point the stack and global_data are relocated to below
275CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR. For non-SPL, U-Boot is relocated to run at the top of
276memory.
277
278board_init_r():
279	- purpose: main execution, common code
280	- global_data is available
281	- SDRAM is available
282	- BSS is available, all static/global variables can be used
283	- execution eventually continues to main_loop()
284
285	Non-SPL-specific notes:
286	- U-Boot is relocated to the top of memory and is now running from
287		there.
288
289	SPL-specific notes:
290	- stack is optionally in SDRAM, if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is defined and
291		CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR points into SDRAM
292	- preloader_console_init() can be called here - typically this is
293		done by selecting CONFIG_SPL_BOARD_INIT and then supplying a
294		spl_board_init() function containing this call
295	- loads U-Boot or (in falcon mode) Linux
296
297
298
299Configuration Options:
300----------------------
301
302Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
303such information is kept in a configuration file
304"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
305
306Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
307"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
308
309
310Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
311kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
312build a config tool - later.
313
314- ARM Platform Bus Type(CCI):
315		CoreLink Cache Coherent Interconnect (CCI) is ARM BUS which
316		provides full cache coherency between two clusters of multi-core
317		CPUs and I/O coherency for devices and I/O masters
318
319		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_HAS_CCI400
320
321		Defined For SoC that has cache coherent interconnect
322		CCN-400
323
324		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_HAS_CCN504
325
326		Defined for SoC that has cache coherent interconnect CCN-504
327
328The following options need to be configured:
329
330- CPU Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
331
332- Board Type:	Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
333
334- 85xx CPU Options:
335		CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
336
337		Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
338		the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
339		compliance, among other possible reasons.
340
341		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
342
343		Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
344		system clock.  On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
345		devices it can be 16 or 32.  The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
346
347		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
348
349		Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
350		tree nodes for the given platform.
351
352		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510

355		then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
356		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
357
358		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
359		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
360
361		Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
362		for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
363
364		The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
365		of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
366		p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
367		whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
368
369		See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
370		this erratum.
371
372		CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
373		Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
374		required during NOR boot.
375
376		CONFIG_A008044_WORKAROUND
377		Enables a workaround for T1040/T1042 erratum A008044. It is only
378		required during NAND boot and valid for Rev 1.0 SoC revision
379

382		This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
383		according to the A004510 workaround.
384
385		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
386		This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
387		connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
388
389		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
390		This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
391		which is directly connected to the DSP core.
392
393		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
394		This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
395		connected to the DSP core.
396
397		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
398		This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
399
400		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
401		Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
402		In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
403		clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
404
405		CONFIG_SYS_CPC_REINIT_F
406		This CONFIG is defined when the CPC is configured as SRAM at the
407		time of U-Boot entry and is required to be re-initialized.
408
409		CONFIG_DEEP_SLEEP
410		Indicates this SoC supports deep sleep feature. If deep sleep is
411		supported, core will start to execute uboot when wakes up.
412
413- Generic CPU options:
414		CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
415
416		Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
417		values is arch specific.
418
419		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR
420		Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is
421		found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core
422		SoCs.
423
424		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_ADDR
425		Freescale DDR memory-mapped register base.
426

499		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_SDRAM_BASE_PHY
500		Physical address from the view of DDR controllers. It is the
501		same as CONFIG_SYS_DDR_SDRAM_BASE for  all Power SoCs. But
502		it could be different for ARM SoCs.
503
504		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_INTLV_256B
505		DDR controller interleaving on 256-byte. This is a special
506		interleaving mode, handled by Dickens for Freescale layerscape
507		SoCs with ARM core.
508
509		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_MAIN_NUM_CTRLS
510		Number of controllers used as main memory.
511
512		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_OTHER_DDR_NUM_CTRLS
513		Number of controllers used for other than main memory.
514
515		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_HAS_DP_DDR
516		Defines the SoC has DP-DDR used for DPAA.
517
518		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_BE
519		Defines the SEC controller register space as Big Endian
520
521		CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_LE
522		Defines the SEC controller register space as Little Endian
523
524- MIPS CPU options:
525		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET
526
527		Offset relative to CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE for initial stack
528		pointer. This is needed for the temporary stack before
529		relocation.
530
531		CONFIG_SYS_MIPS_CACHE_MODE
532
533		Cache operation mode for the MIPS CPU.
534		See also arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h.
535		Possible values are:
536			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NO_WA
537			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_WA
538			CONF_CM_UNCACHED
539			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT
540			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CE
541			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_COW
542			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_CUW
543			CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
544
545		CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
546
547		Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
548		See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
549
550		CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
551
552		Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
553		XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
554		be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
555
556- ARM options:
557		CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
558
559		Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
560		clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
561
562		COUNTER_FREQUENCY
563		Generic timer clock source frequency.
564
565		COUNTER_FREQUENCY_REAL
566		Generic timer clock source frequency if the real clock is
567		different from COUNTER_FREQUENCY, and can only be determined
568		at run time.
569
570- Tegra SoC options:
571		CONFIG_TEGRA_SUPPORT_NON_SECURE
572
573		Support executing U-Boot in non-secure (NS) mode. Certain
574		impossible actions will be skipped if the CPU is in NS mode,
575		such as ARM architectural timer initialization.
576
577- Linux Kernel Interface:
578		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
579
580		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
581		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
582		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
583		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
584		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
585		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
586		Linux kernel.
587		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
588		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
589		default environment.
590
591		CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES		[relevant for MIPS only]
592
593		When transferring memsize parameter to Linux, some versions
594		expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
595		Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
596
597		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
598
599		New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
600		passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
601		concepts).
602
603		CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
604		 * New libfdt-based support
605		 * Adds the "fdt" command
606		 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
607
608		OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
609		OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
610
611		boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
612		addresses
613
614		CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
615
616		Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
617		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
618
619		CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP
620
621		Other code has addition modification that it wants to make
622		to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel.
623		This causes ft_system_setup() to be called before booting
624		the kernel.
625
626		CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
627
628		U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
629		If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
630		removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
631		so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
632		crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
633		no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
634
635		CONFIG_MACH_TYPE	[relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
636
637		This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
638		machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
639		number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
640		(see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
641		Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
642		in a single configuration file and the machine type is
643		runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
644
645- vxWorks boot parameters:
646
647		bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
648		environments variables: bootdev, bootfile, ipaddr, netmask,
649		serverip, gatewayip, hostname, othbootargs.
650		It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
651
652		Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
653		the defaults discussed just above.
654
655- Cache Configuration:
656		CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
657		CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
658		CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
659
660- Cache Configuration for ARM:
661		CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
662				      controller
663		CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
664					controller register space
665
666- Serial Ports:
667		CONFIG_PL010_SERIAL
668
669		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
670
671		CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL
672
673		Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
674
675		CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK
676
677		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
678		the clock speed of the UARTs.
679
680		CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
681
682		If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
683		define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
684		port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
685
686		CONFIG_SERIAL_HW_FLOW_CONTROL
687
688		Define this variable to enable hw flow control in serial driver.
689		Current user of this option is drivers/serial/nsl16550.c driver
690
691- Console Baudrate:
692		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
693		Select one of the baudrates listed in
694		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
695
696- Autoboot Command:
697		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
698		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
699		define a command string that is automatically executed
700		when no character is read on the console interface
701		within "Boot Delay" after reset.
702
703		CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
704		The value of these goes into the environment as
705		"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
706		as a convenience, when switching between booting from
707		RAM and NFS.
708
709- Pre-Boot Commands:
710		CONFIG_PREBOOT
711
712		When this option is #defined, the existence of the
713		environment variable "preboot" will be checked
714		immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
715		countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
716		entering interactive mode.
717
718		This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
719		automatically generated or modified. For an example
720		see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
721		modified when the user holds down a certain
722		combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
723		booting the systems
724
725- Serial Download Echo Mode:
726		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
727		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
728		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
729		echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
730		emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
731		time on others. This setting #define's the initial
732		value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
733
734- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
735		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
736		Select one of the baudrates listed in
737		CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
738
739- Removal of commands
740		If no commands are needed to boot, you can disable
741		CONFIG_CMDLINE to remove them. In this case, the command line
742		will not be available, and when U-Boot wants to execute the
743		boot command (on start-up) it will call board_run_command()
744		instead. This can reduce image size significantly for very
745		simple boot procedures.
746
747- Regular expression support:
748		CONFIG_REGEX
749		If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
750		the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
751		which adds regex support to some commands, as for
752		example "env grep" and "setexpr".
753
754- Device tree:
755		CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
756		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
757		to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
758		compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
759		experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
760		tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
761
762		U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
763		be done using one of the three options below:
764
765		CONFIG_OF_EMBED
766		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
767		binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
768		board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
769		is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
770		the global data structure as gd->fdt_blob.
771
772		CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE
773		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
774		binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
775		code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
776
777			cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
778
779		and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
780		u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
781		still use the individual files if you need something more
782		exotic.
783
784		CONFIG_OF_BOARD
785		If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use the device tree
786		provided by the board at runtime instead of embedding one with
787		the image. Only boards defining board_fdt_blob_setup() support
788		this option (see include/fdtdec.h file).
789
790- Watchdog:
791		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
792		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
793		support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
794		specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx
795		CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
796		register.  When supported for a specific SoC is
797		available, then no further board specific code should
798		be needed to use it.
799
800		CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG
801		When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
802		SoC, then define this variable and provide board
803		specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
804
805		CONFIG_AT91_HW_WDT_TIMEOUT
806		specify the timeout in seconds. default 2 seconds.
807
808- Real-Time Clock:
809
810		When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
811		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
812		following options:
813
814		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
815		CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX	- use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
816		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
817		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
818		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
819		CONFIG_RTC_DS1338	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
820		CONFIG_RTC_DS1339	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1339 RTC
821		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC
822		CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208	- use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
823		CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900	- use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
824		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC	- Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
825		CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR	- enable trickle charger on
826					  RV3029 RTC.
827
828		Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
829		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
830
831- GPIO Support:
832		CONFIG_PCA953X		- use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
833
834		The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
835		chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
836		pins supported by a particular chip.
837
838		Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
839		must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
840
841- I/O tracing:
842		When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
843		accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
844		to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
845		useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
846		the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
847		change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
848		add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
849		to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.
850
851		Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
852		Note that if the trace buffer is exhausted, the checksum will
853		still continue to operate.
854
855			iotrace is enabled
856			Start:  10000000	(buffer start address)
857			Size:   00010000	(buffer size)
858			Offset: 00000120	(current buffer offset)
859			Output: 10000120	(start + offset)
860			Count:  00000018	(number of trace records)
861			CRC32:  9526fb66	(CRC32 of all trace records)
862
863- Timestamp Support:
864
865		When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
866		(date and time) of an image is printed by image
867		commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
868		automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
869
870- Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
871		Zero or more of the following:
872		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION   Apple's MacOS partition table.
873		CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION   ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
874		CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION   GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
875				       bootloader.  Note 2TB partition limit; see
876				       disk/part_efi.c
877		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS  Memory Technology Device partition table.
878
879		If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_IDE or
880		CONFIG_SCSI) you must configure support for at
881		least one non-MTD partition type as well.
882
883- IDE Reset method:
884		CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
885		board configurations files but used nowhere!
886
887		CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
888		be performed by calling the function
889			ide_set_reset(int reset)
890		which has to be defined in a board specific file
891
892- ATAPI Support:
893		CONFIG_ATAPI
894
895		Set this to enable ATAPI support.
896
897- LBA48 Support
898		CONFIG_LBA48
899
900		Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
901		Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
902		Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
903		support disks up to 2.1TB.
904
905		CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
906			When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
907			Default is 32bit.
908
909- SCSI Support:
910		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
911		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
912		CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
913		maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
914		devices.
915
916		The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
917		SCSI devices found during the last scan.
918
919- NETWORK Support (PCI):
920		CONFIG_E1000
921		Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips.
922
923		CONFIG_E1000_SPI
924		Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x.
925		This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one
926		of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC.
927
928		CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC
929		Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for
930		example with the "sspi" command.
931

990		Support for Faraday's FTGMAC100 Gigabit SoC Ethernet
991
992			CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA
993			Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY.
994			Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY.
995			If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur
996			wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or
997			useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit
998			control registers. This behavior won't affect the
999			correctnessof 10/100 link speed update.

1034
1035			CONFIG_TPM_ST33ZP24_SPI
1036			Support for STMicroelectronics ST33ZP24 SPI devices.
1037			Requires TPM_ST33ZP24 and SPI.
1038
1039		CONFIG_TPM_ATMEL_TWI
1040		Support for Atmel TWI TPM device. Requires I2C support.
1041
1042		CONFIG_TPM_TIS_LPC
1043		Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device
1044		per system is supported at this time.
1045
1046			CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS
1047			Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped
1048			to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at
1049			0xfed40000.
1050
1051		CONFIG_TPM
1052		Define this to enable the TPM support library which provides
1053		functional interfaces to some TPM commands.
1054		Requires support for a TPM device.
1055
1056		CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS
1057		Define this to enable authorized functions in the TPM library.
1058		Requires CONFIG_TPM and CONFIG_SHA1.
1059
1060- USB Support:
1061		At the moment only the UHCI host controller is
1062		supported (PIP405, MIP405); define
1063		CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it.
1064		define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard
1065		and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB
1066		storage devices.
1067		Note:
1068		Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
1069		(TEAC FD-05PUB).
1070
1071		CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
1072		txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
1073
1074		CONFIG_USB_DWC2_REG_ADDR the physical CPU address of the DWC2
1075		HW module registers.
1076
1077- USB Device:
1078		Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1079		Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1080		command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1081		attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1082		it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1083		can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1084		appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1085		Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1086		If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1087		a Linux host by
1088		# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1089		else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1090		variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1091		might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1092
1093			CONFIG_USB_DEVICE
1094			Define this to build a UDC device
1095
1096			CONFIG_USB_TTY
1097			Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1098			talk to the UDC device
1099
1100			CONFIG_USBD_HS
1101			Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1102			device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1103			int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1104			also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1105			whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1106			speed.
1107
1108			CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1109			Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1110			be set to usbtty.
1111
1112		If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1113		define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1114		or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1115		CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1116		CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1117		should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1118
1119			CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1120			Define this string as the name of your company for
1121			- CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1122
1123			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1124			Define this string as the name of your product
1125			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1126
1127			CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1128			Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1129			Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1130			to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1131			- CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1132
1133			CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1134			Define this as the unique Product ID
1135			for your device
1136			- CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1137
1138- ULPI Layer Support:
1139		The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1140		the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1141		via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1142		the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1143		viewport is supported.
1144		To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1145		CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1146		If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1147		standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1148		the appropriate value in Hz.
1149
1150- MMC Support:
1151		The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1152		enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1153		accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1154		to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1155		enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1156		the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1157
1158		CONFIG_SH_MMCIF
1159		Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1160
1161			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
1162			Define the base address of MMCIF registers
1163
1164			CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_CLK
1165			Define the clock frequency for MMCIF
1166
1167		CONFIG_SUPPORT_EMMC_BOOT
1168		Enable some additional features of the eMMC boot partitions.
1169
1170- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support:
1171		CONFIG_DFU_OVER_USB
1172		This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1173
1174		CONFIG_DFU_MMC
1175		This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1176
1177		CONFIG_DFU_NAND
1178		This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1179
1180		CONFIG_DFU_RAM
1181		This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1182		Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1183		allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1184		one that would help mostly the developer.
1185
1186		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1187		Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1188		raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1189		configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1190		through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1191
1192		CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1193		When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1194		we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1195		the buffer once we've been given the whole file.  Define
1196		this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1197		Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1198
1199		DFU_DEFAULT_POLL_TIMEOUT
1200		Poll timeout [ms], is the timeout a device can send to the
1201		host. The host must wait for this timeout before sending
1202		a subsequent DFU_GET_STATUS request to the device.
1203
1204		DFU_MANIFEST_POLL_TIMEOUT
1205		Poll timeout [ms], which the device sends to the host when
1206		entering dfuMANIFEST state. Host waits this timeout, before
1207		sending again an USB request to the device.
1208
1209- Android Bootloader support:
1210		CONFIG_CMD_BOOT_ANDROID
1211		This enables the command "boot_android" which executes the
1212		Android Bootloader flow. Enabling CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT is
1213		recommended to support the Android Fastboot protocol as part
1214		of the bootloader.
1215
1216		CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOTLOADER
1217		This enables support for the Android bootloader flow. Android
1218		devices can boot in normal mode, recovery mode or bootloader
1219		mode. The normal mode is the most common boot mode, but
1220		recovery mode is often used to perform factory reset and OTA
1221		(over-the-air) updates in the legacy updater. Also it is
1222		possible for an Android system to request a reboot to the
1223		"bootloader", which often means reboot to fastboot but may also
1224		include a UI with a menu.
1225
1226- Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1227		CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND
1228		Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1229
1230		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1231		CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1232		Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1233
1234- Keyboard Support:
1235		See Kconfig help for available keyboard drivers.
1236
1237		CONFIG_KEYBOARD
1238
1239		Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1240		This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1241		defined in your board-specific files. This option is deprecated
1242		and is only used by novena. For new boards, use driver model
1243		instead.
1244
1245- Video support:
1246		CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB
1247		Enable the Freescale DIU video driver.	Reference boards for
1248		SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1249		support, and should also define these other macros:
1250
1251			CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
1252			CONFIG_VIDEO
1253			CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
1254			CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1255			CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1256			CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
1257			CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1258
1259		The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1260		variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1261		boot.  See the documentation file doc/README.video for a
1262		description of this variable.
1263
1264- LCD Support:	CONFIG_LCD
1265
1266		Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1267		display); also select one of the supported displays
1268		by defining one of these:
1269
1270		CONFIG_ATMEL_LCD:
1271
1272			HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1273
1274		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1275
1276			NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1277
1278		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1279
1280			NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1281			Active, color, single scan.
1282
1283		CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1284
1285			NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1286			Active, color, single scan.
1287
1288		CONFIG_SHARP_16x9
1289
1290			Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1291			It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1292
1293		CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1294
1295			Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1296			Active, color, single scan.
1297
1298		CONFIG_HLD1045
1299
1300			HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1301			Active, color, single scan.
1302
1303		CONFIG_OPTREX_BW
1304
1305			Optrex	 CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1306			or
1307			Hitachi	 LMG6912RPFC-00T
1308			or
1309			Hitachi	 SP14Q002
1310
1311			320x240. Black & white.
1312
1313		CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1314
1315		Normally the LCD is page-aligned (typically 4KB). If this is
1316		defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1317		For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1318		here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1319		a per-section basis.
1320
1321
1322		CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION
1323
1324		Sometimes, for example if the display is mounted in portrait
1325		mode or even if it's mounted landscape but rotated by 180degree,
1326		we need to rotate our content of the display relative to the
1327		framebuffer, so that user can read the messages which are
1328		printed out.
1329		Once CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is defined, the lcd_console will be
1330		initialized with a given rotation from "vl_rot" out of
1331		"vidinfo_t" which is provided by the board specific code.
1332		The value for vl_rot is coded as following (matching to
1333		fbcon=rotate:<n> linux-kernel commandline):
1334		0 = no rotation respectively 0 degree
1335		1 = 90 degree rotation
1336		2 = 180 degree rotation
1337		3 = 270 degree rotation
1338
1339		If CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is not defined, the console will be
1340		initialized with 0degree rotation.
1341
1342		CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
1343
1344		Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1345
1346		CONFIG_I2C_EDID
1347
1348		Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1349		information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1350
1351- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1352
1353		If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1354		a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1355		of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1356		is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1357		specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1358		console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1359		allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1360		loaded very quickly after power-on.
1361
1362		CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1363
1364		If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1365		variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1366		(see doc/README.displaying-bmps).
1367		This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1368		restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1369		abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1370		accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1371		there is no need to set this option.
1372
1373		CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1374
1375		If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1376		on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1377		position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1378		number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1379		is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1380		specify 'm' for centering the image.
1381
1382		Example:
1383		setenv splashpos m,m
1384			=> image at center of screen
1385
1386		setenv splashpos 30,20
1387			=> image at x = 30 and y = 20
1388
1389		setenv splashpos -10,m
1390			=> vertically centered image
1391			   at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1392
1393- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1394
1395		If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1396		images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1397		splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1398
1399- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1400
1401		If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1402		can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1403		bmp command.
1404
1405- Compression support:
1406		CONFIG_GZIP
1407
1408		Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1409
1410		CONFIG_BZIP2
1411
1412		If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1413		images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1414		compressed images are supported.
1415
1416		NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1417		the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1418		be at least 4MB.
1419
1420- MII/PHY support:
1421		CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1422
1423		The clock frequency of the MII bus
1424
1425		CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1426
1427		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1428		reset before any MII register access is possible.
1429		For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1430		required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1431
1432		CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1433
1434		Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1435		command issued before MII status register can be read
1436
1437- IP address:
1438		CONFIG_IPADDR
1439
1440		Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1441		the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1442		determined through e.g. bootp.
1443		(Environment variable "ipaddr")
1444
1445- Server IP address:
1446		CONFIG_SERVERIP
1447
1448		Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1449		server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1450		(Environment variable "serverip")
1451
1452		CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1453
1454		Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1455		for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1456
1457- Gateway IP address:
1458		CONFIG_GATEWAYIP
1459
1460		Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1461		default router where packets to other networks are
1462		sent to.
1463		(Environment variable "gatewayip")
1464
1465- Subnet mask:
1466		CONFIG_NETMASK
1467
1468		Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
1469		routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
1470		address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
1471		forwarded through a router.
1472		(Environment variable "netmask")
1473
1474- Multicast TFTP Mode:
1475		CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
1476
1477		Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1478		rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets
1479		tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet
1480		driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1481		multicast group.
1482
1483- BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1484		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1485
1486		If you have many targets in a network that try to
1487		boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1488		systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1489		moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1490		from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1491		boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1492		CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1493		inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
1494		following delays are inserted then:
1495
1496		1st BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 1 sec
1497		2nd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 2 sec
1498		3rd BOOTP request:	delay 0 ... 4 sec
1499		4th and following
1500		BOOTP requests:		delay 0 ... 8 sec
1501
1502		CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE
1503
1504		BOOTP packets are uniquely identified using a 32-bit ID. The
1505		server will copy the ID from client requests to responses and
1506		U-Boot will use this to determine if it is the destination of
1507		an incoming response. Some servers will check that addresses
1508		aren't in use before handing them out (usually using an ARP
1509		ping) and therefore take up to a few hundred milliseconds to
1510		respond. Network congestion may also influence the time it
1511		takes for a response to make it back to the client. If that
1512		time is too long, U-Boot will retransmit requests. In order
1513		to allow earlier responses to still be accepted after these
1514		retransmissions, U-Boot's BOOTP client keeps a small cache of
1515		IDs. The CONFIG_BOOTP_ID_CACHE_SIZE controls the size of this
1516		cache. The default is to keep IDs for up to four outstanding
1517		requests. Increasing this will allow U-Boot to accept offers
1518		from a BOOTP client in networks with unusually high latency.
1519
1520- DHCP Advanced Options:
1521		You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1522		CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1523
1524		CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
1525		CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
1526		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
1527		CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
1528		CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
1529		CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
1530		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1531
1532		CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1533		environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1534
1535		CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1536		after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1537		instead of starting over.  This can be used to fail over
1538		to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1539		is not available.
1540
1541		CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1542		to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1543		need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
1544		If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
1545		of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
1546		option 12 to the DHCP server.
1547
1548		CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1549
1550		A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1551		receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1552		This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1553		respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1554		AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1555		to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1556		DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1557		least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1558		that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1559		the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1560		this delay.
1561
1562 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1563		Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1564		for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1565		This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1566		to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1567
1568		See doc/README.link-local for more information.
1569
1570 - MAC address from environment variables
1571
1572		FDT_SEQ_MACADDR_FROM_ENV
1573
1574		Fix-up device tree with MAC addresses fetched sequentially from
1575		environment variables. This config work on assumption that
1576		non-usable ethernet node of device-tree are either not present
1577		or their status has been marked as "disabled".
1578
1579 - CDP Options:
1580		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
1581
1582		The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
1583
1584		CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
1585
1586		A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
1587		of the device.
1588
1589		CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID
1590
1591		A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
1592		the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
1593		eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
1594
1595		CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
1596
1597		A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
1598		0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
1599
1600		CONFIG_CDP_VERSION
1601
1602		An ascii string containing the version of the software.
1603
1604		CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM
1605
1606		An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
1607
1608		CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER
1609
1610		A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
1611
1612		CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
1613
1614		A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
1615		device in .1 of milliwatts.
1616
1617		CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
1618
1619		A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
1620
1621- Status LED:	CONFIG_LED_STATUS
1622
1623		Several configurations allow to display the current
1624		status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
1625		fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
1626		soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
1627		start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
1628		(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
1629		kernel). Defining CONFIG_LED_STATUS enables this
1630		feature in U-Boot.
1631
1632		Additional options:
1633
1634		CONFIG_LED_STATUS_GPIO
1635		The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
1636		In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
1637		status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_LED_STATUS_GPIO
1638		to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
1639
1640		CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
1641		Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
1642		case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
1643		GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
1644		In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
1645		with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
1646
1647- I2C Support:	CONFIG_SYS_I2C
1648
1649		This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
1650		i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
1651		CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
1652		based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See
1653		common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the command line
1654		interface.

1787
1788		additional defines:
1789
1790		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
1791		Hold the number of i2c buses you want to use.
1792
1793		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
1794		define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
1795		if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
1796		omit this define.
1797
1798		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
1799		define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
1800		on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
1801		define.
1802
1803		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
1804		hold a list of buses you want to use, only used if
1805		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
1806		a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
1807		CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
1808
1809		 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES	{{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
1810					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \
1811					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 2}}}, \
1812					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 3}}}, \
1813					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 4}}}, \
1814					{0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
1815					{1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
1816					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \
1817					{1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 2}}}, \
1818					}
1819
1820		which defines
1821			bus 0 on adapter 0 without a mux
1822			bus 1 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 1
1823			bus 2 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 2
1824			bus 3 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 3
1825			bus 4 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 4
1826			bus 5 on adapter 0 with a PCA9547 on address 0x70 port 5
1827			bus 6 on adapter 1 without a mux
1828			bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1
1829			bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
1830
1831		If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
1832
1833- Legacy I2C Support:
1834		If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
1835		then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
1836		from include/configs/lwmon.h):
1837
1838		I2C_INIT
1839
1840		(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
1841		controller or configure ports.
1842
1843		eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=	PB_SCL)
1844
1845		I2C_ACTIVE
1846
1847		The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
1848		(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this
1849		define can be null.
1850
1851		eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)
1852
1853		I2C_TRISTATE
1854
1855		The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
1856		(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this
1857		define can be null.
1858
1859		eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
1860
1861		I2C_READ
1862
1863		Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
1864		false if it is low.
1865
1866		eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
1867
1868		I2C_SDA(bit)
1869
1870		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
1871		is false, it clears it (low).
1872
1873		eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
1874			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; \
1875			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
1876
1877		I2C_SCL(bit)
1878
1879		If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
1880		is false, it clears it (low).
1881
1882		eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
1883			if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; \
1884			else	immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
1885
1886		I2C_DELAY
1887
1888		This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
1889		controls the rate of data transfer.  The data rate thus
1890		is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
1891		like:
1892
1893		#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)
1894
1895		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
1896
1897		If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
1898		then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
1899		used as SCL / SDA.  Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
1900		have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
1901
1902		You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
1903		the generic GPIO functions.
1904
1905		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
1906
1907		When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
1908		chips might think that the current transfer is still
1909		in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
1910		the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
1911		processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
1912		connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
1913		custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
1914		is run early in the boot sequence.
1915
1916		CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
1917
1918		This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
1919		must have a controller.	 At any point in time, only one bus is
1920		active.	 To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
1921		Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
1922
1923		CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
1924
1925		This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
1926		when the 'i2c probe' command is issued.	 If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
1927		is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs.  Otherwise, specify
1928		a 1D array of device addresses
1929
1930		e.g.
1931			#undef	CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
1932			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
1933
1934		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
1935
1936			#define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
1937			#define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES	{{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
1938
1939		will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
1940
1941		CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
1942
1943		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
1944		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
1945
1946		CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
1947
1948		If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
1949		If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
1950
1951		CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
1952
1953		defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
1954		the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
1955		between writing the address pointer and reading the
1956		data.  If this define is omitted the default behaviour
1957		of doing a stop-start sequence will be used.  Most I2C
1958		devices can use either method, but some require one or
1959		the other.
1960
1961- SPI Support:	CONFIG_SPI
1962
1963		Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
1964		SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
1965		D/As on the SACSng board)
1966
1967		CONFIG_SOFT_SPI
1968
1969		Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
1970		using hardware support. This is a general purpose
1971		driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
1972		(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
1973		defined, the board configuration must define several
1974		SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
1975		an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
1976
1977		CONFIG_HARD_SPI
1978
1979		Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
1980		and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
1981		must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
1982		Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.	 For an
1983		example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
1984
1985		CONFIG_SYS_SPI_MXC_WAIT
1986		Timeout for waiting until spi transfer completed.
1987		default: (CONFIG_SYS_HZ/100)     /* 10 ms */
1988
1989- FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
1990
1991		Enables FPGA subsystem.
1992
1993		CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
1994
1995		Enables support for specific chip vendors.
1996		(ALTERA, XILINX)
1997
1998		CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
1999
2000		Enables support for FPGA family.
2001		(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2002
2003		CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT
2004
2005		Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2006
2007		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2008
2009		Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2010
2011		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2012
2013		Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2014		status by the configuration function. This option
2015		will require a board or device specific function to
2016		be written.
2017
2018		CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY
2019
2020		If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2021		configuration driver.
2022
2023		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2024		Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2025
2026		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2027
2028		Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2029		loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2030		configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2031		indicated a CRC error).
2032
2033		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2034
2035		Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to de-assert
2036		after PROB_B has been de-asserted during a Virtex II
2037		FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2038		ms.
2039
2040		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2041
2042		Maximum time to wait for BUSY to de-assert during
2043		Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2044
2045		CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2046
2047		Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2048		200 ms.
2049
2050- Configuration Management:
2051		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET
2052
2053		Some SoCs need special image types (e.g. U-Boot binary
2054		with a special header) as build targets. By defining
2055		CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET in the SoC / board header, this
2056		special image will be automatically built upon calling
2057		make / buildman.
2058
2059		CONFIG_IDENT_STRING
2060
2061		If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2062		version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2063
2064- Vendor Parameter Protection:
2065
2066		U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2067		variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2068		"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2069		are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2070		protects these variables from casual modification by
2071		the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2072		and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2073		change this behaviour:
2074
2075		If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2076		file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2077		completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2078		these parameters.
2079
2080		Alternatively, if you define _both_ an ethaddr in the
2081		default env _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2082		Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2083		which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2084		serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2085		read-only.]
2086
2087		The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2088		for any variable by configuring the type of access
2089		to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2090		or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2091
2092- Protected RAM:
2093		CONFIG_PRAM
2094
2095		Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2096		"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2097		by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2098		kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2099		this default value by defining an environment
2100		variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2101		reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2102		still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2103		reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2104		automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2105		remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2106		argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2107
2108			setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2109			saveenv
2110
2111		This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2112		either, which results in a memory region that will
2113		not be affected by reboots.
2114
2115		*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2116		detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2117		this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2118		following board configurations are known to be
2119		"pRAM-clean":
2120
2121			IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx,
2122			HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2123			FLAGADM
2124
2125- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2126		Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2127		normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2128		support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2129		machines using physical address extension or similar.
2130		Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2131		currently only supports clearing the memory.
2132
2133- Error Recovery:
2134		CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2135
2136		This variable defines the number of retries for
2137		network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2138		before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2139		default value of 5 is used.
2140
2141		CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT
2142
2143		Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2144
2145		CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT
2146
2147		Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2148		If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2149		try longer timeout such as
2150		#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2151
2152- Command Interpreter:
2153		CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2154
2155		This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2156		printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2157		to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2158
2159	Note:
2160
2161		In the current implementation, the local variables
2162		space and global environment variables space are
2163		separated. Local variables are those you define by
2164		simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2165		variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2166		`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2167		directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2168
2169		Global environment variables are those you use
2170		setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2171		in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2172		and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2173
2174		To store commands and special characters in a
2175		variable, please use double quotation marks
2176		surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2177		of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2178		symbols.
2179
2180- Command Line Editing and History:
2181		CONFIG_CMDLINE_PS_SUPPORT
2182
2183		Enable support for changing the command prompt string
2184		at run-time. Only static string is supported so far.
2185		The string is obtained from environment variables PS1
2186		and PS2.
2187
2188- Default Environment:
2189		CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2190
2191		Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2192		strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2193		the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2194
2195		For example, place something like this in your
2196		board's config file:
2197
2198		#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2199			"myvar1=value1\0" \
2200			"myvar2=value2\0"
2201
2202		Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2203		internal format how the environment is stored by the
2204		U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2205		interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2206		will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2207		You better know what you are doing here.
2208
2209		Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2210		discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2211		the environment like the "source" command or the
2212		boot command first.
2213
2214		CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2215
2216		Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2217		initialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2218		that so that the environment is not available until
2219		explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2220		this is instead controlled by the value of
2221		/config/load-environment.
2222
2223- Serial Flash support
2224		Usage requires an initial 'sf probe' to define the serial
2225		flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2226		commands.
2227
2228		The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2229		to handle the common case when only a single serial
2230		flash is present on the system.
2231
2232		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS		Bus identifier
2233		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS		Chip-select
2234		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE 		(see include/spi.h)
2235		CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED		in Hz
2236
2237
2238- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2239		CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
2240
2241		If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2242		is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2243		If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2244		number generator is used.
2245
2246		Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2247		the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't
2248		defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2249
2250		The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2251		blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2252		target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2253		"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2254		the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2255		A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2256		but sometimes that is not allowed.
2257
2258- Show boot progress:
2259		CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2260
2261		Defining this option allows to add some board-
2262		specific code (calling a user-provided function
2263		"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2264		the system's boot progress on some display (for
2265		example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2266		the following checkpoints are implemented:
2267

2422- Standalone program support:
2423		CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
2424
2425		This option defines a board specific value for the
2426		address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
2427		overwriting the architecture dependent default
2428		settings.
2429
2430- Frame Buffer Address:
2431		CONFIG_FB_ADDR
2432
2433		Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
2434		address for frame buffer.  This is typically the case
2435		when using a graphics controller has separate video
2436		memory.  U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
2437		the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
2438		in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
2439		the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
2440		configured panel size.
2441
2442		Please see board_init_f function.
2443
2444- Automatic software updates via TFTP server
2445		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP
2446		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
2447		CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
2448
2449		These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
2450		for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
2451
2452- MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
2453		CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE
2454
2455		Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
2456		Needed for mtdparts command support.
2457
2458		CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
2459
2460		Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
2461		kernel. Needed for UBI support.
2462
2463- UBI support
2464		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD
2465		This parameter defines the maximum difference between the highest
2466		erase counter value and the lowest erase counter value of eraseblocks
2467		of UBI devices. When this threshold is exceeded, UBI starts performing
2468		wear leveling by means of moving data from eraseblock with low erase
2469		counter to eraseblocks with high erase counter.
2470
2471		The default value should be OK for SLC NAND flashes, NOR flashes and
2472		other flashes which have eraseblock life-cycle 100000 or more.
2473		However, in case of MLC NAND flashes which typically have eraseblock
2474		life-cycle less than 10000, the threshold should be lessened (e.g.,
2475		to 128 or 256, although it does not have to be power of 2).
2476
2477		default: 4096
2478
2479		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT
2480		This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
2481		expects on the MTD device (per 1024 eraseblocks). If the
2482		underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
2483		flash), this value is ignored.
2484
2485		NAND datasheets often specify the minimum and maximum NVM
2486		(Number of Valid Blocks) for the flashes' endurance lifetime.
2487		The maximum expected bad eraseblocks per 1024 eraseblocks
2488		then can be calculated as "1024 * (1 - MinNVB / MaxNVB)",
2489		which gives 20 for most NANDs (MaxNVB is basically the total
2490		count of eraseblocks on the chip).
2491
2492		To put it differently, if this value is 20, UBI will try to
2493		reserve about 1.9% of physical eraseblocks for bad blocks
2494		handling. And that will be 1.9% of eraseblocks on the entire
2495		NAND chip, not just the MTD partition UBI attaches. This means
2496		that if you have, say, a NAND flash chip admits maximum 40 bad
2497		eraseblocks, and it is split on two MTD partitions of the same
2498		size, UBI will reserve 40 eraseblocks when attaching a
2499		partition.
2500
2501		default: 20
2502
2503		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP
2504		Fastmap is a mechanism which allows attaching an UBI device
2505		in nearly constant time. Instead of scanning the whole MTD device it
2506		only has to locate a checkpoint (called fastmap) on the device.
2507		The on-flash fastmap contains all information needed to attach
2508		the device. Using fastmap makes only sense on large devices where
2509		attaching by scanning takes long. UBI will not automatically install
2510		a fastmap on old images, but you can set the UBI parameter
2511		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT to 1 if you want so. Please note
2512		that fastmap-enabled images are still usable with UBI implementations
2513		without	fastmap support. On typical flash devices the whole fastmap
2514		fits into one PEB. UBI will reserve PEBs to hold two fastmaps.
2515
2516		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FASTMAP_AUTOCONVERT
2517		Set this parameter to enable fastmap automatically on images
2518		without a fastmap.
2519		default: 0
2520
2521		CONFIG_MTD_UBI_FM_DEBUG
2522		Enable UBI fastmap debug
2523		default: 0
2524
2525- SPL framework
2526		CONFIG_SPL
2527		Enable building of SPL globally.
2528
2529		CONFIG_SPL_LDSCRIPT
2530		LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
2531
2532		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
2533		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
2534		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
2535		used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
2536		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2537		must not be both defined at the same time.
2538
2539		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
2540		Maximum size of the SPL image (text, data, rodata, and
2541		linker lists sections), BSS excluded.
2542		When defined, the linker checks that the actual size does
2543		not exceed it.
2544
2545		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
2546		TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary.
2547
2548		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE
2549		Address to relocate to.  If unspecified, this is equal to
2550		CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done).
2551
2552		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR
2553		Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary.
2554
2555		CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2556		Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL BSS.
2557		When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory used
2558		by SPL from __bss_start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
2559		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
2560		must not be both defined at the same time.
2561
2562		CONFIG_SPL_STACK
2563		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use
2564
2565		CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_RAW_IMAGE
2566		When defined, SPL will panic() if the image it has
2567		loaded does not have a signature.
2568		Defining this is useful when code which loads images
2569		in SPL cannot guarantee that absolutely all read errors
2570		will be caught.
2571		An example is the LPC32XX MLC NAND driver, which will
2572		consider that a completely unreadable NAND block is bad,
2573		and thus should be skipped silently.
2574
2575		CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
2576		Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
2577		relocation.  If unspecified, this is equal to
2578		CONFIG_SPL_STACK.
2579
2580		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START
2581		Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL.
2582		When this option is set the full malloc is used in SPL and
2583		it is set up by spl_init() and before that, the simple malloc()
2584		can be used if CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F is defined.
2585
2586		CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_SIZE
2587		The size of the malloc pool used in SPL.
2588
2589		CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT
2590		Enable booting directly to an OS from SPL.
2591		See also: doc/README.falcon
2592
2593		CONFIG_SPL_DISPLAY_PRINT
2594		For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information
2595		about the running system.
2596
2597		CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL
2598		Arch init code should be built for a very small image
2599
2600		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION
2601		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being
2602		used in raw mode
2603
2604		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR
2605		Sector to load kernel uImage from when MMC is being
2606		used in raw mode (for Falcon mode)
2607
2608		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR,
2609		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS
2610		Sector and number of sectors to load kernel argument
2611		parameters from when MMC is being used in raw mode
2612		(for falcon mode)
2613
2614		CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION
2615		Partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from when the MMC is being
2616		used in fs mode
2617
2618		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_PAYLOAD_NAME
2619		Filename to read to load U-Boot when reading from filesystem
2620
2621		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_KERNEL_NAME
2622		Filename to read to load kernel uImage when reading
2623		from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
2624
2625		CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_ARGS_NAME
2626		Filename to read to load kernel argument parameters
2627		when reading from filesystem (for Falcon mode)
2628
2629		CONFIG_SPL_MPC83XX_WAIT_FOR_NAND
2630		Set this for NAND SPL on PPC mpc83xx targets, so that
2631		start.S waits for the rest of the SPL to load before
2632		continuing (the hardware starts execution after just
2633		loading the first page rather than the full 4K).
2634
2635		CONFIG_SPL_SKIP_RELOCATE
2636		Avoid SPL relocation
2637
2638		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE
2639		Include nand_base.c in the SPL.  Requires
2640		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS.
2641
2642		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_DRIVERS
2643		SPL uses normal NAND drivers, not minimal drivers.
2644
2645		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_IDENT
2646		SPL uses the chip ID list to identify the NAND flash.
2647		Requires CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BASE.
2648
2649		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_ECC
2650		Include standard software ECC in the SPL
2651
2652		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_SIMPLE
2653		Support for NAND boot using simple NAND drivers that
2654		expose the cmd_ctrl() interface.
2655
2656		CONFIG_SPL_UBI
2657		Support for a lightweight UBI (fastmap) scanner and
2658		loader
2659
2660		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_RAW_ONLY
2661		Support to boot only raw u-boot.bin images. Use this only
2662		if you need to save space.
2663
2664		CONFIG_SPL_COMMON_INIT_DDR
2665		Set for common ddr init with serial presence detect in
2666		SPL binary.
2667
2668		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_5_ADDR_CYCLE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_COUNT,
2669		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_OOBSIZE,
2670		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BAD_BLOCK_POS,
2671		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCPOS, CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCSIZE,
2672		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_ECCBYTES
2673		Defines the size and behavior of the NAND that SPL uses
2674		to read U-Boot
2675
2676		CONFIG_SPL_NAND_BOOT
2677		Add support NAND boot
2678
2679		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS
2680		Location in NAND to read U-Boot from
2681
2682		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST
2683		Location in memory to load U-Boot to
2684
2685		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_SIZE
2686		Size of image to load
2687
2688		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
2689		Entry point in loaded image to jump to
2690
2691		CONFIG_SYS_NAND_HW_ECC_OOBFIRST
2692		Define this if you need to first read the OOB and then the
2693		data. This is used, for example, on davinci platforms.
2694
2695		CONFIG_SPL_RAM_DEVICE
2696		Support for running image already present in ram, in SPL binary
2697
2698		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO
2699		Image offset to which the SPL should be padded before appending
2700		the SPL payload. By default, this is defined as
2701		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
2702		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
2703		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
2704
2705		CONFIG_SPL_TARGET
2706		Final target image containing SPL and payload.  Some SPLs
2707		use an arch-specific makefile fragment instead, for
2708		example if more than one image needs to be produced.
2709
2710		CONFIG_SPL_FIT_PRINT
2711		Printing information about a FIT image adds quite a bit of
2712		code to SPL. So this is normally disabled in SPL. Use this
2713		option to re-enable it. This will affect the output of the
2714		bootm command when booting a FIT image.
2715
2716- TPL framework
2717		CONFIG_TPL
2718		Enable building of TPL globally.
2719
2720		CONFIG_TPL_PAD_TO
2721		Image offset to which the TPL should be padded before appending
2722		the TPL payload. By default, this is defined as
2723		CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE, or 0 if CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE is undefined.
2724		CONFIG_SPL_PAD_TO must be either 0, meaning to append the SPL
2725		payload without any padding, or >= CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE.
2726
2727- Interrupt support (PPC):
2728
2729		There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
2730		for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()
2731		for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()
2732		should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
2733		CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
2734		(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
2735		timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU
2736		specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led
2737		/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from
2738		general timer_interrupt().
2739
2740
2741Board initialization settings:
2742------------------------------
2743
2744During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions
2745to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup
2746before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the
2747following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is
2748architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c
2749typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r().
2750
2751- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f()
2752- CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r()
2753- CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init()
2754- CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init()
2755
2756Configuration Settings:
2757-----------------------
2758
2759- CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA: Defined automatically if compiled as 64-bit.
2760		Optionally it can be defined to support 64-bit memory commands.
2761
2762- CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
2763		undefine this when you're short of memory.
2764
2765- CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default
2766		width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output.
2767
2768- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
2769		prompt for user input.
2770
2771- CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console
2772
2773- CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output
2774
2775- CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS:	max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands
2776
2777- CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
2778		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
2779		booted
2780
2781- CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
2782		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.
2783
2784- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
2785		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
2786		simple memory test.
2787
2788- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:
2789		Scratch address used by the alternate memory test
2790		You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable
2791
2792- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE
2793		Only implemented for ARMv8 for now.
2794		If defined, the size of CONFIG_SYS_MEM_RESERVE_SECURE memory
2795		is substracted from total RAM and won't be reported to OS.
2796		This memory can be used as secure memory. A variable
2797		gd->arch.secure_ram is used to track the location. In systems
2798		the RAM base is not zero, or RAM is divided into banks,
2799		this variable needs to be recalcuated to get the address.
2800
2801- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE:
2802		If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,
2803		this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top
2804		(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By
2805		fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed
2806		the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.
2807		This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux
2808		board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that
2809		recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup
2810		will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.
2811
2812		This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx
2813		CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't
2814		be touched.
2815
2816		WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of
2817		the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,
2818		then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a
2819		non page size aligned address and this could cause major
2820		problems.
2821
2822- CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
2823		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download
2824
2825- CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE:
2826		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.
2827
2828- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE:
2829		Physical start address of Flash memory.
2830
2831- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE:
2832		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
2833		make config files to be same as the text base address
2834		(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
2835		CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.
2836
2837- CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN:
2838		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
2839		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
2840		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
2841		flash sector.
2842
2843- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
2844		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
2845
2846- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
2847		Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
2848		this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
2849		will become available before relocation. The address is just
2850		below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
2851		space.
2852
2853		This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
2854		within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
2855		is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
2856		The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotten) when
2857		U-Boot relocates itself.
2858
2859- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE
2860		Provides a simple and small malloc() and calloc() for those
2861		boards which do not use the full malloc in SPL (which is
2862		enabled with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START).
2863
2864- CONFIG_SYS_NONCACHED_MEMORY:
2865		Size of non-cached memory area. This area of memory will be
2866		typically located right below the malloc() area and mapped
2867		uncached in the MMU. This is useful for drivers that would
2868		otherwise require a lot of explicit cache maintenance. For
2869		some drivers it's also impossible to properly maintain the
2870		cache. For example if the regions that need to be flushed
2871		are not a multiple of the cache-line size, *and* padding
2872		cannot be allocated between the regions to align them (i.e.
2873		if the HW requires a contiguous array of regions, and the
2874		size of each region is not cache-aligned), then a flush of
2875		one region may result in overwriting data that hardware has
2876		written to another region in the same cache-line. This can
2877		happen for example in network drivers where descriptors for
2878		buffers are typically smaller than the CPU cache-line (e.g.
2879		16 bytes vs. 32 or 64 bytes).
2880
2881		Non-cached memory is only supported on 32-bit ARM at present.
2882
2883- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
2884		Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
2885		uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
2886		you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file
2887		to adjust this setting to your needs.
2888
2889- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ:
2890		Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of
2891		the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by
2892		the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if
2893		used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"
2894		environment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case
2895		all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"
2896		and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.	 The environment
2897		variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of
2898		CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ.  If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined,
2899		then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead.
2900
2901- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH:
2902		Enable initrd_high functionality.  If defined then the
2903		initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand
2904		is enabled.
2905
2906- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE:
2907		Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between
2908		"bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
2909
2910- CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD:
2911		Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in
2912		space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ.
2913
2914- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
2915		Max number of Flash memory banks
2916
2917- CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
2918		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip
2919
2920- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
2921		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)
2922
2923- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
2924		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)
2925
2926- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
2927		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)
2928
2929- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
2930		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)
2931
2932- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION
2933		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
2934		instead of U-Boot software protection.
2935
2936- CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:
2937
2938		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
2939		without this option such a download has to be
2940		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
2941		copy from RAM to flash.
2942
2943		The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since
2944		you can check if the download worked before you erase
2945		the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is
2946		too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the
2947		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.
2948
2949- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI:
2950		Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the
2951		common flash structure for storing flash geometry.
2952
2953- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER
2954		This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver
2955		in the drivers directory
2956
2957- CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD
2958		This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver
2959		in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash
2960		to the MTD layer.
2961
2962- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE
2963		Use buffered writes to flash.
2964
2965- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N
2966		s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered
2967		write commands.
2968
2969- CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
2970		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
2971		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
2972		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
2973		optionally available.
2974
2975- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS
2976		If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown
2977		digits and dots.  Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80
2978		column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.
2979
2980- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
2981		If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
2982		against the source after the write operation. An error message
2983		will be printed when the contents are not identical.
2984		Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
2985		since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
2986		while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
2987		this option if you really know what you are doing.
2988
2989- CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
2990		Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some
2991		Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value
2992		to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all
2993		buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface
2994		on high Ethernet traffic.
2995		Defaults to 4 if not defined.
2996
2997- CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES
2998
2999	Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used
3000	internally to store the environment settings. The default
3001	setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most
3002	cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see
3003	lib/hashtable.c for details.
3004
3005- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3006- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3007	Enable validation of the values given to environment variables when
3008	calling env set.  Variables can be restricted to only decimal,
3009	hexadecimal, or boolean.  If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined,
3010	the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address.
3011
3012	The format of the list is:
3013		type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m]
3014		access_attribute = [a|r|o|c]
3015		attributes = type_attribute[access_attribute]
3016		entry = variable_name[:attributes]
3017		list = entry[,list]
3018
3019	The type attributes are:
3020		s - String (default)
3021		d - Decimal
3022		x - Hexadecimal
3023		b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF])
3024		i - IP address
3025		m - MAC address
3026
3027	The access attributes are:
3028		a - Any (default)
3029		r - Read-only
3030		o - Write-once
3031		c - Change-default
3032
3033	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT
3034		Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags"
3035		environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3036
3037	- CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC
3038		Define this to a list (string) to define validation that
3039		should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags"
3040		environment variable.  To override a setting in the static
3041		list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the
3042		".flags" variable.
3043
3044	If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
3045	regular expression. This allows multiple variables to define the same
3046	flags without explicitly listing them for each variable.
3047
3048- CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE
3049	If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable
3050	access flags.
3051
3052- CONFIG_USE_STDINT
3053	If stdint.h is available with your toolchain you can define this
3054	option to enable it. You can provide option 'USE_STDINT=1' when
3055	building U-Boot to enable this.
3056
3057The following definitions that deal with the placement and management
3058of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the
3059following configurations:
3060
3061- CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC:
3062
3063	Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils
3064	may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images.
3065
3066BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early
3067in U-Boot initialization (when we try to get the setting of for the
3068console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or
3069U-Boot will hang.
3070
3071Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the
3072environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to
3073keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"
3074to save the current settings.
3075
3076BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use
3077"saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the
3078environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link,
3079but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface.
3080
3081- CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST
3082
3083	Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the
3084	environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to
3085	CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.
3086
3087Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor
3088has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been
3089created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use env_get_f()
3090until then to read environment variables.
3091
3092The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor
3093is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working
3094with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is
3095necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the
3096"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't
3097have any device yet where we could complain.]
3098
3099Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if
3100the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you
3101use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.
3102
3103- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:
3104		Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.
3105
3106		Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR
3107		      also needs to be defined.
3108
3109- CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR:
3110		MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.
3111
3112- CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS:
3113		Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init
3114		and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at
3115		drivers/serial/ns16550.c.  This option is useful for saving
3116		space for already greatly restricted images, including but not
3117		limited to NAND_SPL configurations.
3118
3119- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO
3120		Display information about the board that U-Boot is running on
3121		when U-Boot starts up. The board function checkboard() is called
3122		to do this.
3123
3124- CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE
3125		Similar to the previous option, but display this information
3126		later, once stdio is running and output goes to the LCD, if
3127		present.
3128
3129- CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT:
3130		Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the
3131		build system checks that the actual size does not
3132		exceed it.
3133
3134Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:
3135---------------------------------------------------
3136
3137- CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE:
3138		Cache Line Size of the CPU.
3139
3140- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT:
3141		Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale
3142		PowerPC SOCs.
3143
3144- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR:
3145		Virtual address of CCSR.  On a 32-bit build, this is typically
3146		the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.
3147
3148- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS:
3149		Physical address of CCSR.  CCSR can be relocated to a new
3150		physical address, if desired.  In this case, this macro should
3151		be set to that address.	 Otherwise, it should be set to the
3152		same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT.  For example, CCSR
3153		is typically relocated on 36-bit builds.  It is recommended
3154		that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros:
3155
3156		#define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH
3157			* 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW)
3158
3159- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH:
3160		Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.	This value is typically
3161		either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build).	This macro is
3162		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3163		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3164
3165- CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW:
3166		Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS.  This macro is
3167		used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or
3168		integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL").
3169
3170- CONFIG_SYS_CCSR_DO_NOT_RELOCATE:
3171		If this macro is defined, then CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS will be
3172		forced to a value that ensures that CCSR is not relocated.
3173
3174- Floppy Disk Support:
3175		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER
3176
3177		the default drive number (default value 0)
3178
3179		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE
3180
3181		defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers
3182		(default value 1)
3183
3184		CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET
3185
3186		defines the offset of register from address. It
3187		depends on which part of the data bus is connected to
3188		the FDC chipset. (default value 0)
3189
3190		If CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_STRIDE CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_OFFSET and
3191		CONFIG_SYS_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their
3192		default value.
3193
3194		if CONFIG_SYS_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function
3195		fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC
3196		setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board
3197		source code. It is used to make hardware-dependent
3198		initializations.
3199
3200- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
3201		Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
3202		interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
3203		When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
3204		IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
3205		registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
3206		is required.
3207
3208- CONFIG_SYS_IMMR:	Physical address of the Internal Memory.
3209		DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're
3210		doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx systems only]
3211
3212- CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR:
3213
3214		Start address of memory area that can be used for
3215		initial data and stack; please note that this must be
3216		writable memory that is working WITHOUT special
3217		initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which
3218		will become available only after programming the
3219		memory controller and running certain initialization
3220		sequences.
3221
3222		U-Boot uses the following memory types:
3223		- MPC8xx: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)
3224
3225- CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:
3226
3227		Offset of the initial data structure in the memory
3228		area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually
3229		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial
3230		data is located at the end of the available space
3231		(sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE -
3232		GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just
3233		below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR +
3234		CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.
3235
3236	Note:
3237		On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data
3238		cache for initial memory) the address chosen for
3239		CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must
3240		point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between
3241		the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.
3242
3243- CONFIG_SYS_SCCR:	System Clock and reset Control Register (15-27)
3244
3245- CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM:
3246		SDRAM timing
3247
3248- CONFIG_SYS_MAMR_PTA:
3249		periodic timer for refresh
3250
3251- FLASH_BASE0_PRELIM, FLASH_BASE1_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_REMAP_OR_AM,
3252  CONFIG_SYS_PRELIM_OR_AM, CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_FLASH, CONFIG_SYS_OR0_REMAP,
3253  CONFIG_SYS_OR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR0_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_REMAP, CONFIG_SYS_OR1_PRELIM,
3254  CONFIG_SYS_BR1_PRELIM:
3255		Memory Controller Definitions: BR0/1 and OR0/1 (FLASH)
3256
3257- SDRAM_BASE2_PRELIM, SDRAM_BASE3_PRELIM, SDRAM_MAX_SIZE,
3258  CONFIG_SYS_OR_TIMING_SDRAM, CONFIG_SYS_OR2_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR2_PRELIM,
3259  CONFIG_SYS_OR3_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR3_PRELIM:
3260		Memory Controller Definitions: BR2/3 and OR2/3 (SDRAM)
3261
3262- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
3263		Only scan through and get the devices on the buses.
3264		Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
3265		something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
3266		a second time.	Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
3267		by coreboot or similar.
3268
3269- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
3270		Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.
3271
3272- CONFIG_SYS_SRIO:
3273		Chip has SRIO or not
3274
3275- CONFIG_SRIO1:
3276		Board has SRIO 1 port available
3277
3278- CONFIG_SRIO2:
3279		Board has SRIO 2 port available
3280
3281- CONFIG_SRIO_PCIE_BOOT_MASTER
3282		Board can support master function for Boot from SRIO and PCIE
3283
3284- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT:
3285		Virtual Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
3286
3287- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS:
3288		Physical Address of SRIO port 'n' memory region
3289
3290- CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE:
3291		Size of SRIO port 'n' memory region
3292
3293- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BUSWIDTH_16BIT
3294		Defined to tell the NAND controller that the NAND chip is using
3295		a 16 bit bus.
3296		Not all NAND drivers use this symbol.
3297		Example of drivers that use it:
3298		- drivers/mtd/nand/ndfc.c
3299		- drivers/mtd/nand/mxc_nand.c
3300
3301- CONFIG_SYS_NDFC_EBC0_CFG
3302		Sets the EBC0_CFG register for the NDFC. If not defined
3303		a default value will be used.
3304
3305- CONFIG_SPD_EEPROM
3306		Get DDR timing information from an I2C EEPROM. Common
3307		with pluggable memory modules such as SODIMMs
3308
3309  SPD_EEPROM_ADDRESS
3310		I2C address of the SPD EEPROM
3311
3312- CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
3313		If SPD EEPROM is on an I2C bus other than the first
3314		one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve
3315		to something your driver can deal with.
3316
3317- CONFIG_SYS_DDR_RAW_TIMING
3318		Get DDR timing information from other than SPD. Common with
3319		soldered DDR chips onboard without SPD. DDR raw timing
3320		parameters are extracted from datasheet and hard-coded into
3321		header files or board specific files.
3322
3323- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE
3324		Enable interactive DDR debugging. See doc/README.fsl-ddr.
3325
3326- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_SYNC_REFRESH
3327		Enable sync of refresh for multiple controllers.
3328
3329- CONFIG_FSL_DDR_BIST
3330		Enable built-in memory test for Freescale DDR controllers.
3331
3332- CONFIG_SYS_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0
3333		Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should
3334		be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.
3335
3336- CONFIG_RMII
3337		Enable RMII mode for all FECs.
3338		Note that this is a global option, we can't
3339		have one FEC in standard MII mode and another in RMII mode.
3340
3341- CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY
3342		Add a verify option to the crc32 command.
3343		The syntax is:
3344
3345		=> crc32 -v <address> <count> <crc32>
3346
3347		Where address/count indicate a memory area
3348		and crc32 is the correct crc32 which the
3349		area should have.
3350
3351- CONFIG_LOOPW
3352		Add the "loopw" memory command. This only takes effect if
3353		the memory commands are activated globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY).
3354
3355- CONFIG_MX_CYCLIC
3356		Add the "mdc" and "mwc" memory commands. These are cyclic
3357		"md/mw" commands.
3358		Examples:
3359
3360		=> mdc.b 10 4 500
3361		This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.
3362
3363		=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10
3364		This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.
3365
3366		This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated
3367		globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY).
3368
3369- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT
3370		[ARM, NDS32, MIPS, RISC-V only] If this variable is defined, then certain
3371		low level initializations (like setting up the memory
3372		controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does not
3373		relocate itself into RAM.
3374
3375		Normally this variable MUST NOT be defined. The only
3376		exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by some
3377		other boot loader or by a debugger which performs
3378		these initializations itself.
3379
3380- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT_ONLY
3381		[ARM926EJ-S only] This allows just the call to lowlevel_init()
3382		to be skipped. The normal CP15 init (such as enabling the
3383		instruction cache) is still performed.
3384
3385- CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
3386		Modifies the behaviour of start.S when compiling a loader
3387		that is executed before the actual U-Boot. E.g. when
3388		compiling a NAND SPL.
3389
3390- CONFIG_TPL_BUILD
3391		Modifies the behaviour of start.S  when compiling a loader
3392		that is executed after the SPL and before the actual U-Boot.
3393		It is loaded by the SPL.
3394
3395- CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC
3396		Only for 85xx systems. If this variable is specified, the section
3397		.resetvec is not kept and the section .bootpg is placed in the
3398		previous 4k of the .text section.
3399
3400- CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYSMEM
3401		Generally U-Boot (and in particular the md command) uses
3402		effective address. It is therefore not necessary to regard
3403		U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated
3404		to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since
3405		it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all
3406		addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
3407		to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
3408
3409- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
3410		If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
3411		needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
3412
3413- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE
3414		Option to disable subpage write in NAND driver
3415		driver that uses this:
3416		drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c
3417
3418Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support:
3419-----------------------------------
3420
3421The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the
3422loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format.
3423This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
3424are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
3425within that device.
3426
3427- CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR
3428	The address in the storage device where the FMAN microcode is located.  The
3429	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
3430	is also specified.
3431
3432- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_ADDR
3433	The address in the storage device where the QE microcode is located.  The
3434	meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro
3435	is also specified.
3436
3437- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH
3438	The maximum possible size of the firmware.  The firmware binary format
3439	has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it
3440	might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some
3441	local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first.
3442
3443- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR
3444	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as
3445	normal addressable memory via the LBC.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the
3446	virtual address in NOR flash.
3447
3448- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND
3449	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash.
3450	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash.
3451
3452- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC
3453	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC
3454	device.  CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device.
3455
3456- CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE
3457	Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master)
3458	memory space.	CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which
3459	can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound
3460	window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in
3461	master's memory space.
3462
3463Freescale Layerscape Management Complex Firmware Support:
3464---------------------------------------------------------
3465The Freescale Layerscape Management Complex (MC) supports the loading of
3466"firmware".
3467This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros
3468are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address
3469within that device.
3470
3471- CONFIG_FSL_MC_ENET
3472	Enable the MC driver for Layerscape SoCs.
3473
3474Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support:
3475-------------------------------------------
3476The Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support supports the loading of
3477"Debug Server firmware" and triggering SP boot-rom.
3478This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting.
3479
3480- CONFIG_SYS_MC_RSV_MEM_ALIGN
3481	Define alignment of reserved memory MC requires
3482
3483Reproducible builds
3484-------------------
3485
3486In order to achieve reproducible builds, timestamps used in the U-Boot build
3487process have to be set to a fixed value.
3488
3489This is done using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable.
3490SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is to be set on the build host's shell, not as a configuration
3491option for U-Boot or an environment variable in U-Boot.
3492
3493SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH should be set to a number of seconds since the epoch, in UTC.
3494
3495Building the Software:
3496======================
3497
3498Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
3499and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
3500all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
3501(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
3502recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
3503which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
3504
3505If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you
3506have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case,
3507you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.
3508Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are
3509necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:
3510
3511	$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-
3512	$ export CROSS_COMPILE
3513
3514Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in
3515      the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain
3516      (http://www.mingw.org).  Set your HOST tools to the MinGW
3517      toolchain and execute 'make tools'.  For example:
3518
3519       $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools
3520
3521      Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can
3522      be executed on computers running Windows.
3523
3524U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the
3525sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This
3526is done by typing:
3527
3528	make NAME_defconfig
3529
3530where "NAME_defconfig" is the name of one of the existing configu-
3531rations; see boards.cfg for supported names.
3532
3533Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if
3534      additional information is available from the board vendor; for
3535      instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)
3536      or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features"
3537      when choosing the configuration, i. e.
3538
3539      make TQM823L_defconfig
3540	- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support
3541
3542      make TQM823L_LCD_defconfig
3543	- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD
3544
3545      etc.
3546
3547
3548Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot
3549images ready for download to / installation on your system:
3550
3551- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image
3552- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format
3553- "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format
3554
3555By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved
3556in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change
3557this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:
3558
35591. Add O= to the make command line invocations:
3560
3561	make O=/tmp/build distclean
3562	make O=/tmp/build NAME_defconfig
3563	make O=/tmp/build all
3564
35652. Set environment variable KBUILD_OUTPUT to point to the desired location:
3566
3567	export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/tmp/build
3568	make distclean
3569	make NAME_defconfig
3570	make all
3571
3572Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment
3573variable.
3574
3575User specific CPPFLAGS, AFLAGS and CFLAGS can be passed to the compiler by
3576setting the according environment variables KCPPFLAGS, KAFLAGS and KCFLAGS.
3577For example to treat all compiler warnings as errors:
3578
3579	make KCFLAGS=-Werror
3580
3581Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so
3582for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of
3583native "make".
3584
3585
3586If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
3587to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
3588steps:
3589
35901.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
3591    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
3592    the "Makefile" and a "<board>.c".
35932.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
3594    your board.
35953.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
3596    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
35974.  Run "make <board>_defconfig" with your new name.
35985.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
3599    to be installed on your target system.
36006.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
3601    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
3602
3603
3604Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:
3605==============================================================
3606
3607If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board
3608or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to
3609provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes
3610the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest
3611official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.
3612
3613But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-
3614cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of
3615the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,
3616just run the buildman script (tools/buildman/buildman), which will
3617configure and build U-Boot for ALL supported system. Be warned, this
3618will take a while. Please see the buildman README, or run 'buildman -H'
3619for documentation.

3674Monitor Commands - Detailed Description:
3675========================================
3676
3677TODO.
3678
3679For now: just type "help <command>".
3680
3681
3682Environment Variables:
3683======================
3684
3685U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which
3686can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.
3687
3688Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using
3689"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"
3690without a value can be used to delete a variable from the
3691environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are
3692working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
3693environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.
3694
3695Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables.
3696
3697List of environment variables (most likely not complete):
3698
3699  baudrate	- see CONFIG_BAUDRATE
3700
3701  bootdelay	- see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
3702
3703  bootcmd	- see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
3704
3705  bootargs	- Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image
3706
3707  bootfile	- Name of the image to load with TFTP
3708
3709  bootm_low	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
3710		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
3711		  a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed
3712		  for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size"
3713		  environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is
3714		  also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux
3715		  kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and
3716		  bootm_mapsize.
3717
3718  bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel.
3719		  This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it
3720		  defines the size of the memory region starting at base
3721		  address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel
3722		  during early boot.  If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used
3723		  as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is
3724		  used otherwise.
3725
3726  bootm_size	- Memory range available for image processing in the bootm
3727		  command can be restricted. This variable is given as
3728		  a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region
3729		  allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low"
3730		  environment variable.
3731
3732  updatefile	- Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used
3733		  by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to
3734		  documentation in doc/README.update for more details.
3735
3736  autoload	- if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),
3737		  "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the
3738		  configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
3739		  load any image using TFTP
3740
3741  autostart	- if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
3742		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
3743		  be automatically started (by internally calling
3744		  "bootm")
3745
3746		  If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the
3747		  "bootm" command will be copied to the load address
3748		  (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.
3749		  This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary
3750		  data.
3751
3752  fdt_high	- if set this restricts the maximum address that the
3753		  flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot.
3754		  For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory
3755		  at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel
3756		  only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you
3757		  may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the
3758		  device tree blob be copied to the maximum address
3759		  of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can
3760		  access it during the boot procedure.
3761
3762		  If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then
3763		  the fdt will not be copied at all on boot.  For this
3764		  to work it must reside in writable memory, have
3765		  sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to
3766		  add the information it needs into it, and the memory
3767		  must be accessible by the kernel.
3768
3769  fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened
3770		  device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is
3771		  defined.
3772
3773  i2cfast	- (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
3774		  if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast
3775		  mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in
3776		  initialization code. So, for changes to be effective
3777		  it must be saved and board must be reset.
3778
3779  initrd_high	- restrict positioning of initrd images:
3780		  If this variable is not set, initrd images will be
3781		  copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this
3782		  is usually what you want since it allows for
3783		  maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to
3784		  make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the
3785		  CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment
3786		  variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".
3787		  Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper
3788		  address to use (U-Boot will still check that it
3789		  does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).
3790
3791		  For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB
3792		  RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,
3793		  you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of
3794		  the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make
3795		  sure that the initrd image is placed in the first
3796		  12 MB as well - this can be done with
3797
3798		  setenv initrd_high 00c00000
3799
3800		  If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an
3801		  indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal
3802		  for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash
3803		  memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the
3804		  ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the
3805		  boot time on your system, but requires that this
3806		  feature is supported by your Linux kernel.
3807
3808  ipaddr	- IP address; needed for tftpboot command
3809
3810  loadaddr	- Default load address for commands like "bootp",
3811		  "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"
3812
3813  loads_echo	- see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
3814
3815  serverip	- TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command
3816
3817  bootretry	- see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
3818
3819  bootdelaykey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
3820
3821  bootstopkey	- see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
3822
3823  ethprime	- controls which interface is used first.
3824
3825  ethact	- controls which interface is currently active.
3826		  For example you can do the following
3827
3828		  => setenv ethact FEC
3829		  => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC
3830		  => setenv ethact SCC
3831		  => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC
3832
3833  ethrotate	- When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all
3834		  available network interfaces.
3835		  It just stays at the currently selected interface.
3836
3837  netretry	- When set to "no" each network operation will
3838		  either succeed or fail without retrying.
3839		  When set to "once" the network operation will
3840		  fail when all the available network interfaces
3841		  are tried once without success.
3842		  Useful on scripts which control the retry operation
3843		  themselves.
3844
3845  npe_ucode	- set load address for the NPE microcode
3846
3847  silent_linux  - If set then Linux will be told to boot silently, by
3848		  changing the console to be empty. If "yes" it will be
3849		  made silent. If "no" it will not be made silent. If
3850		  unset, then it will be made silent if the U-Boot console
3851		  is silent.
3852
3853  tftpsrcp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
3854		  UDP source port.
3855
3856  tftpdstp	- If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
3857		  destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
3858
3859  tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
3860		  we use the TFTP server's default block size
3861
3862  tftptimeout	- Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
3863		  seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
3864		  when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
3865		  be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
3866		  Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
3867		  faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
3868		  with unreliable TFTP servers.
3869
3870  tftptimeoutcountmax	- maximum count of TFTP timeouts (no
3871		  unit, minimum value = 0). Defines how many timeouts
3872		  can happen during a single file transfer before that
3873		  transfer is aborted. The default is 10, and 0 means
3874		  'no timeouts allowed'. Increasing this value may help
3875		  downloads succeed with high packet loss rates, or with
3876		  unreliable TFTP servers or client hardware.
3877
3878  vlan		- When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
3879		  Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
3880		  VLAN tagged frames.
3881
3882  bootpretryperiod	- Period during which BOOTP/DHCP sends retries.
3883		  Unsigned value, in milliseconds. If not set, the period will
3884		  be either the default (28000), or a value based on
3885		  CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT, if defined. This value has
3886		  precedence over the valu based on CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT.
3887
3888The following image location variables contain the location of images
3889used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is
3890not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment
3891variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP
3892server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be
3893loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR
3894flash or offset in NAND flash.
3895
3896*Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some
3897boards currently use other variables for these purposes, and some
3898boards use these variables for other purposes.
3899
3900Image		    File Name	     RAM Address       Flash Location
3901-----		    ---------	     -----------       --------------
3902u-boot		    u-boot	     u-boot_addr_r     u-boot_addr
3903Linux kernel	    bootfile	     kernel_addr_r     kernel_addr
3904device tree blob    fdtfile	     fdt_addr_r	       fdt_addr
3905ramdisk		    ramdiskfile	     ramdisk_addr_r    ramdisk_addr
3906
3907The following environment variables may be used and automatically
3908updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),
3909depending the information provided by your boot server:
3910
3911  bootfile	- see above
3912  dnsip		- IP address of your Domain Name Server
3913  dnsip2	- IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server
3914  gatewayip	- IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use
3915  hostname	- Target hostname
3916  ipaddr	- see above
3917  netmask	- Subnet Mask
3918  rootpath	- Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server
3919  serverip	- see above
3920
3921
3922There are two special Environment Variables:
3923
3924  serial#	- contains hardware identification information such
3925		  as type string and/or serial number
3926  ethaddr	- Ethernet address
3927
3928These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of
3929the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables
3930once they have been set once.
3931
3932
3933Further special Environment Variables:
3934
3935  ver		- Contains the U-Boot version string as printed
3936		  with the "version" command. This variable is
3937		  readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).
3938
3939
3940Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take
3941only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).
3942
3943
3944Callback functions for environment variables:
3945---------------------------------------------
3946
3947For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change
3948when their values are changed.  This functionality allows functions to
3949be associated with arbitrary variables.  On creation, overwrite, or
3950deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side
3951effect to happen or for the change to be rejected.
3952
3953The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the
3954U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code.
3955
3956These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways.  The
3957static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC
3958in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of
3959associations.  The list must be in the following format:
3960
3961	entry = variable_name[:callback_name]
3962	list = entry[,list]
3963
3964If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted.
3965Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list.
3966
3967Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable
3968with the same list format above.  Any association in ".callbacks" will
3969override any association in the static list. You can define
3970CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the
3971".callbacks" environment variable in the default or embedded environment.
3972
3973If CONFIG_REGEX is defined, the variable_name above is evaluated as a
3974regular expression. This allows multiple variables to be connected to
3975the same callback without explicitly listing them all out.
3976
3977
3978Command Line Parsing:
3979=====================
3980
3981There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:
3982the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:
3983
3984Old, simple command line parser:
3985--------------------------------
3986
3987- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)
3988- several commands on one line, separated by ';'
3989- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax
3990- special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\',
3991  for example:
3992	setenv bootcmd bootm \${address}
3993- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:
3994	setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'
3995
3996Hush shell:
3997-----------
3998
3999- similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like
4000  if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,
4001  until...do...done, ...
4002- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv
4003  commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax
4004  "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"
4005  command
4006
4007General rules:
4008--------------
4009
4010(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"
4011    command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and
4012    one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be
4013    executed anyway.
4014
4015(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.
4016    calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing
4017    command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining
4018    variables are not executed.
4019
4020Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:
4021=======================================
4022
4023Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports
4024such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a
4025"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:
4026
4027Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding
4028MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),
4029"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...
4030
4031If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance
4032in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-
4033ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment
4034variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:
4035
4036o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the
4037  environment, the SROM's address is used.
4038
4039o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the
4040  environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is
4041  used.
4042
4043o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and
4044  both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.
4045
4046o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the
4047  addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a
4048  warning is printed.
4049
4050o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
4051  is raised. If CONFIG_NET_RANDOM_ETHADDR is defined, then in this case
4052  a random, locally-assigned MAC is used.
4053
4054If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
4055will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process.	 This
4056may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
4057The naming convention is as follows:
4058"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
4059
4060Image Formats:
4061==============
4062
4063U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)
4064images in two formats:
4065
4066New uImage format (FIT)
4067-----------------------
4068
4069Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar
4070to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple
4071components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by
4072SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.
4073
4074
4075Old uImage format
4076-----------------
4077
4078Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,
4079preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for
4080details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:
4081
4082* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
4083  4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,
4084  LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY;
4085  Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS,
4086  INTEGRITY).
4087* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, Intel x86,
4088  IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;
4089  Currently supported: ARM, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC).
4090* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)
4091* Load Address
4092* Entry Point
4093* Image Name
4094* Image Timestamp
4095
4096The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header
4097and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by
4098CRC32 checksums.
4099
4100
4101Linux Support:
4102==============
4103
4104Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application
4105easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of
4106U-Boot.
4107
4108U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some
4109special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any
4110"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;
4111instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation
4112serves several purposes:
4113
4114- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone
4115  applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the
4116  Flash memory footprint)
4117
4118- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because
4119  lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot
4120
4121- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"
4122  images; of course this also means that different kernel images can
4123  be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't
4124  have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just
4125  change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the
4126  software is easier now.
4127
4128
4129Linux HOWTO:
4130============
4131
4132Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:
4133---------------------------------------
4134
4135U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to
4136configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware
4137(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to
4138Linux :-).
4139
4140But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot).
4141
4142Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance
4143include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board
4144Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h,
4145and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value
4146as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR.
4147
4148Note that U-Boot now has a driver model, a unified model for drivers.
4149If you are adding a new driver, plumb it into driver model. If there
4150is no uclass available, you are encouraged to create one. See
4151doc/driver-model.
4152
4153
4154Configuring the Linux kernel:
4155-----------------------------
4156
4157No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root
4158device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.
4159
4160
4161Building a Linux Image:
4162-----------------------
4163
4164With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are
4165not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target
4166"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by
4167U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,
4168which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a
4169100% compatible format.
4170
4171Example:
4172
4173	make TQM850L_defconfig
4174	make oldconfig
4175	make dep
4176	make uImage
4177
4178The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to
4179encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header	 information,
4180CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:
4181
4182* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):
4183
4184* convert the kernel into a raw binary image:
4185
4186	${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \
4187				 -R .note -R .comment \
4188				 -S vmlinux linux.bin
4189
4190* compress the binary image:
4191
4192	gzip -9 linux.bin
4193
4194* package compressed binary image for U-Boot:
4195
4196	mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \
4197		-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \
4198		-d linux.bin.gz uImage
4199
4200
4201The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use
4202with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or
4203combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64
4204byte header containing information about target architecture,
4205operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time
4206stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.
4207
4208"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and
4209print the header information, or to build new images.
4210
4211In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information
4212contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes
4213checksum verification:
4214
4215	tools/mkimage -l image
4216	  -l ==> list image header information
4217
4218The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image
4219from a "data file" which is used as image payload:
4220
4221	tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \
4222		      -n name -d data_file image
4223	  -A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
4224	  -O ==> set operating system to 'os'
4225	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4226	  -C ==> set compression type 'comp'
4227	  -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
4228	  -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
4229	  -n ==> set image name to 'name'
4230	  -d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
4231
4232Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load
4233address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the
4234kernel version:
4235
4236- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,
4237- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.
4238
4239So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:
4240
4241	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
4242	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \
4243	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \
4244	> examples/uImage.TQM850L
4245	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4246	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4247	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
4248	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
4249	Load Address: 0x00000000
4250	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4251
4252To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):
4253
4254	-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L
4255	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4256	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4257	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
4258	Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB
4259	Load Address: 0x00000000
4260	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4261
4262NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade
4263speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this
4264needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not
4265need to be uncompressed:
4266
4267	-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz
4268	-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \
4269	> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \
4270	> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux \
4271	> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed
4272	Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L
4273	Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000
4274	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
4275	Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB
4276	Load Address: 0x00000000
4277	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4278
4279
4280Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file
4281when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:
4282
4283	-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' \
4284	> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip \
4285	> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd
4286	Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image
4287	Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000
4288	Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
4289	Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB
4290	Load Address: 0x00000000
4291	Entry Point:  0x00000000
4292
4293The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
4294option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
4295option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
4296from the image:
4297
4298	tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file
4299	  -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file'
4300	  -T ==> set image type to 'type'
4301	  -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image'
4302
4303
4304Installing a Linux Image:
4305-------------------------
4306
4307To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,
4308you must convert the image to S-Record format:
4309
4310	objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec
4311
4312The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot
4313image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to
4314address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to
4315specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'
4316command.
4317
4318Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the
4319TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):
4320
4321	=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF
4322
4323	.......... done
4324	Erased 8 sectors
4325
4326	=> loads 40100000
4327	## Ready for S-Record download ...
4328	~>examples/image.srec
4329	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...
4330	...
4331	15989 15990 15991 15992
4332	[file transfer complete]
4333	[connected]
4334	## Start Addr = 0x00000000
4335
4336
4337You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;
4338this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data
4339corruption happened:
4340
4341	=> imi 40100000
4342
4343	## Checking Image at 40100000 ...
4344	   Image Name:	 2.2.13 for initrd on TQM850L
4345	   Image Type:	 PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
4346	   Data Size:	 335725 Bytes = 327 kB = 0 MB
4347	   Load Address: 00000000
4348	   Entry Point:	 0000000c
4349	   Verifying Checksum ... OK
4350
4351
4352Boot Linux:
4353-----------

4355The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in
4356memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents
4357of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as
4358parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the
4359"printenv" and "setenv" commands:
4360
4361
4362	=> printenv bootargs
4363	bootargs=root=/dev/ram
4364
4365	=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

4438First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section
4439titled "Linux Kernel Interface" above for a more in depth explanation. The
4440following is an example of how to start a kernel and pass an updated

4484More About U-Boot Image Types:
4485------------------------------
4486
4487U-Boot supports the following image types:
4488
4489   "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment
4490	provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave
4491	well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from
4492	the Standalone Program.
4493   "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which
4494	will take over control completely. Usually these programs
4495	will install their own set of exception handlers, device
4496	drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot
4497	expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.
4498   "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their
4499	parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is
4500	being started.
4501   "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS
4502	(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like
4503	RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want
4504	to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot
4505	server provides just a single image file, but you want to get
4506	for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.
4507
4508	"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each
4509	image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network
4510	byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".
4511	Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by
4512	one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to
4513	a multiple of 4 bytes).
4514
4515   "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like
4516	U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to
4517	flash memory.
4518
4519   "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by
4520	U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially
4521	useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)
4522	as command interpreter.
4523
4524Booting the Linux zImage:
4525-------------------------
4526
4527On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
4528using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
4529as the syntax of "bootm" command.
4530
4531Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_RAW_INITRD allows user to supply
4532kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
4533address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
4534format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
4535
4536
4537Standalone HOWTO:
4538=================
4539
4540One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and
4541run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of
4542U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.
4543
4544Two simple examples are included with the sources:
4545
4546"Hello World" Demo:
4547-------------------
4548
4549'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo
4550application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.
4551It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it
4552like that:
4553
4554	=> loads
4555	## Ready for S-Record download ...
4556	~>examples/hello_world.srec
4557	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
4558	[file transfer complete]
4559	[connected]
4560	## Start Addr = 0x00040004
4561
4562	=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.
4563	## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...
4564	Hello World
4565	argc = 7
4566	argv[0] = "40004"
4567	argv[1] = "Hello"
4568	argv[2] = "World!"
4569	argv[3] = "This"
4570	argv[4] = "is"
4571	argv[5] = "a"
4572	argv[6] = "test."
4573	argv[7] = "<NULL>"
4574	Hit any key to exit ...
4575
4576	## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
4577
4578Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt
4579handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.
4580Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.
4581The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'
4582character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be
4583controlled by the following keys:
4584
4585	? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers
4586	b - enable interrupts and start timer
4587	e - stop timer and disable interrupts
4588	q - quit application
4589
4590	=> loads

4625Minicom warning:
4626================
4627
4628Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the
4629"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd)
4630consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under
4631Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
4632especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
4633use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).  See
4634http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3.
4635for help with kermit.
4636
4637
4638Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this
4639configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:
4640
4641	   Name	   Program			Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi
4642	X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s	 Y    U	   Y	   N	  N

4646NetBSD Notes:
4647=============
4648
4649Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host
4650(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).
4651
4652Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on
4653NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also
4654need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).
4655Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;
4656attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is
4657missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:
4658
4659	# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include
4660	# mkdir powerpc
4661	# ln -s powerpc machine
4662	# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h
4663	# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h	## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST
4664
4665Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native
4666and U-Boot include files.
4667
4668Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a
4669stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel
4670proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source
4671tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the
4672meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz
4673
4674
4675Implementation Internals:
4676=========================
4677
4678The following is not intended to be a complete description of every
4679implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the
4680inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom
4681hardware.
4682
4683
4684Initial Stack, Global Data:
4685---------------------------
4686
4687The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot
4688starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to
4689system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).
4690This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS
4691is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working
4692at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation
4693options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU
4694models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and
4695MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be
4696locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.
4697
4698	Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the
4699	U-Boot mailing list:
4700
4701	Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?
4702	From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>
4703	Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)
4704	...
4705
4706	Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it
4707	is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not
4708	require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness
4709	is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of
4710	necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's
4711	beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you
4712	can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and
4713	operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.
4714
4715	OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It
4716	is another option for the system designer to use as an
4717	initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either
4718	option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your
4719	board designers haven't used it for something that would
4720	cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not
4721	used.
4722
4723	CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere
4724	with your processor/board/system design. The default value
4725	you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in
4726	walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger
4727	than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set
4728	it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources
4729	that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in
4730	start.S has been around a while and should work as is when
4731	you get the config right.

4735
4736It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C
4737code for the initialization procedures:
4738
4739* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt
4740  to write it.
4741
4742* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitly initialized
4743  as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-
4744  zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).
4745
4746* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like
4747  that.
4748
4749Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use
4750normal global data to share information between the code. But it
4751turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly
4752simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all
4753functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_
4754functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of
4755the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we
4756place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we
4757reserve for this purpose.
4758
4759When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the
4760relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by
4761GCC's implementation.
4762
4763For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:
4764	R1:	stack pointer
4765	R2:	reserved for system use
4766	R3-R4:	parameter passing and return values
4767	R5-R10: parameter passing
4768	R13:	small data area pointer
4769	R30:	GOT pointer
4770	R31:	frame pointer
4771
4772	(U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12
4773	is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when
4774	going back and forth between asm and C)
4775
4776    ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data
4777
4778    Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the
4779    address of the global data structure is known at compile time),
4780    but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat
4781    smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on
4782    average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
4783    624 text + 127 data).
4784
4785On ARM, the following registers are used:
4786
4787	R0:	function argument word/integer result
4788	R1-R3:	function argument word
4789	R9:	platform specific
4790	R10:	stack limit (used only if stack checking is enabled)
4791	R11:	argument (frame) pointer
4792	R12:	temporary workspace
4793	R13:	stack pointer
4794	R14:	link register
4795	R15:	program counter
4796
4797    ==> U-Boot will use R9 to hold a pointer to the global data
4798
4799    Note: on ARM, only R_ARM_RELATIVE relocations are supported.
4800
4801On Nios II, the ABI is documented here:

4803
4804    ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data
4805
4806    Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp
4807    to access small data sections, so gp is free.
4808
4809On NDS32, the following registers are used:
4810
4811	R0-R1:	argument/return
4812	R2-R5:	argument
4813	R15:	temporary register for assembler
4814	R16:	trampoline register
4815	R28:	frame pointer (FP)
4816	R29:	global pointer (GP)
4817	R30:	link register (LP)
4818	R31:	stack pointer (SP)
4819	PC:	program counter (PC)
4820
4821    ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data
4822
4823NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,
4824or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.
4825
4826On RISC-V, the following registers are used:
4827
4828	x0: hard-wired zero (zero)
4829	x1: return address (ra)
4830	x2:	stack pointer (sp)
4831	x3:	global pointer (gp)
4832	x4:	thread pointer (tp)
4833	x5:	link register (t0)
4834	x8:	frame pointer (fp)
4835	x10-x11:	arguments/return values (a0-1)
4836	x12-x17:	arguments (a2-7)
4837	x28-31:	 temporaries (t3-6)
4838	pc:	program counter (pc)

4841
4842Memory Management:
4843------------------
4844
4845U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the
4846MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.
4847
4848The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory
4849controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each
4850memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several
4851physical memory banks.
4852
4853U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on
4854TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After
4855booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself
4856to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some
4857memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN
4858configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board
4859Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).
4860
4861Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB
4862of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).
4863
4864So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like
4865this:
4866
4867	0x0000 0000	Exception Vector code
4868	      :
4869	0x0000 1FFF
4870	0x0000 2000	Free for Application Use
4871	      :
4872	      :
4873
4874	      :
4875	      :
4876	0x00FB FF20	Monitor Stack (Growing downward)
4877	0x00FB FFAC	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
4878	0x00FC 0000	Malloc Arena
4879	      :
4880	0x00FD FFFF
4881	0x00FE 0000	RAM Copy of Monitor Code
4882	...		eventually: LCD or video framebuffer
4883	...		eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)
4884	0x00FF FFFF	[End of RAM]
4885
4886
4887System Initialization:
4888----------------------
4889
4890In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point
4891(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset
4892configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the on board Flash memory.
4893To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.
4894To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)
4895initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs
4896which provide such a feature like), or in a locked part of the data
4897cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, the caches and
4898the SIU.
4899
4900Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a
4901preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries
4902(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash
4903on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is
4904programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a
4905simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM
4906banks.
4907
4908When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of
4909different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first
4910bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address
49110x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create
4912contiguous memory starting from 0.
4913
4914Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area
4915and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board
4916Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM
4917pages, and the final stack is set up.
4918
4919Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;
4920until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are
4921running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a
4922new address in RAM.

4999Coding Standards:
5000-----------------
5001
5002All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel
5003coding style; see the kernel coding style guide at
5004https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/coding-style.html, and the
5005script "scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
5006
5007Source files originating from a different project (for example the
5008MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not
5009reformatted to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those
5010sources.
5011
5012Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in
5013Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)
5014in your code.
5015
5016Please also stick to the following formatting rules:
5017- remove any trailing white space
5018- use TAB characters for indentation and vertical alignment, not spaces
5019- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds
5020- do not add more than 2 consecutive empty lines to source files
5021- do not add trailing empty lines to source files
5022
5023Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned
5024with a request to reformat the changes.
5025
5026
5027Submitting Patches:
5028-------------------
5029
5030Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to
5031establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules
5032may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.
5033
5034Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
5035
5036Patches shall be sent to the u-boot mailing list <u-boot@lists.denx.de>;
5037see https://lists.denx.de/listinfo/u-boot
5038
5039When you send a patch, please include the following information with
5040it:
5041
5042* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes
5043  this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the
5044  patch actually fixes something.
5045
5046* For new features: a description of the feature and your
5047  implementation.
5048
5049* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)
5050
5051* For major contributions, add a MAINTAINERS file with your
5052  information and associated file and directory references.
5053
5054* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add a
5055  maintainer e-mail address to the boards.cfg file, too.
5056
5057* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to
5058  document these in the README file.
5059
5060* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*
5061  recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the
5062  "git format-patch". If you then use "git send-email" to send it to
5063  the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems
5064  with some other mail clients.
5065
5066  If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of
5067  diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of
5068  GNU diff.
5069
5070  The current directory when running this command shall be the parent
5071  directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that
5072  your patch includes sufficient directory information for the
5073  affected files).
5074
5075  We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,
5076  and compressed attachments must not be used.
5077
5078* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several
5079  files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.
5080
5081* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be
5082  submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.
5083
5084
5085Notes:
5086
5087* Before sending the patch, run the buildman script on your patched
5088  source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported
5089  for any of the boards.
5090
5091* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch
5092  containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be
5093  returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.
5094
5095* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not
5096  add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!
5097  When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only
5098  (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature
5099  disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your
5100  modification.
5101
5102* Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the
5103  u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are
5104  reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches
5105  bigger than the size limit should be avoided.
