-- Driver Model
- Driver model is a new framework for devices in U-Boot
- introduced in early 2014. U-Boot is being progressively
- moved over to this. It offers a consistent device structure,
- supports grouping devices into classes and has built-in
- handling of platform data and device tree.
-
- To enable transition to driver model in a relatively
- painful fashion, each subsystem can be independently
- switched between the legacy/ad-hoc approach and the new
- driver model using the options below. Also, many uclass
- interfaces include compatibility features which may be
- removed once the conversion of that subsystem is complete.
- As a result, the API provided by the subsystem may in fact
- not change with driver model.
-
- See doc/driver-model/README.txt for more information.
-
- CONFIG_DM
-
- Enable driver model. This brings in the core support,
- including scanning of platform data on start-up. If
- CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is enabled, the device tree will be
- scanned also when available.
-
- CONFIG_CMD_DM
-
- Enable driver model test commands. These allow you to print
- out the driver model tree and the uclasses.
-
- CONFIG_DM_DEMO
-
- Enable some demo devices and the 'demo' command. These are
- really only useful for playing around while trying to
- understand driver model in sandbox.
-
- CONFIG_SPL_DM
-
- Enable driver model in SPL. You will need to provide a
- suitable malloc() implementation. If you are not using the
- full malloc() enabled by CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START,
- consider using CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE. In that case you
- must provide CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN to set the size.
- In most cases driver model will only allocate a few uclasses
- and devices in SPL, so 1KB should be enable. See
- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN for more details on how to enable
- it.
-
- CONFIG_DM_SERIAL
-
- Enable driver model for serial. This replaces
- drivers/serial/serial.c with the serial uclass, which
- implements serial_putc() etc. The uclass interface is
- defined in include/serial.h.
-
- CONFIG_DM_GPIO
-
- Enable driver model for GPIO access. The standard GPIO
- interface (gpio_get_value(), etc.) is then implemented by
- the GPIO uclass. Drivers provide methods to query the
- particular GPIOs that they provide. The uclass interface
- is defined in include/asm-generic/gpio.h.
-
- CONFIG_DM_SPI
-
- Enable driver model for SPI. The SPI slave interface
- (spi_setup_slave(), spi_xfer(), etc.) is then implemented by
- the SPI uclass. Drivers provide methods to access the SPI
- buses that they control. The uclass interface is defined in
- include/spi.h. The existing spi_slave structure is attached
- as 'parent data' to every slave on each bus. Slaves
- typically use driver-private data instead of extending the
- spi_slave structure.
-
- CONFIG_DM_SPI_FLASH
-
- Enable driver model for SPI flash. This SPI flash interface
- (spi_flash_probe(), spi_flash_write(), etc.) is then
- implemented by the SPI flash uclass. There is one standard
- SPI flash driver which knows how to probe most chips
- supported by U-Boot. The uclass interface is defined in
- include/spi_flash.h, but is currently fully compatible
- with the old interface to avoid confusion and duplication
- during the transition parent. SPI and SPI flash must be
- enabled together (it is not possible to use driver model
- for one and not the other).
-
- CONFIG_DM_CROS_EC
-
- Enable driver model for the Chrome OS EC interface. This
- allows the cros_ec SPI driver to operate with CONFIG_DM_SPI
- but otherwise makes few changes. Since cros_ec also supports
- I2C and LPC (which don't support driver model yet), a full
- conversion is not yet possible.
-
-
- ** Code size options: The following options are enabled by
- default except in SPL. Enable them explicitly to get these
- features in SPL.
-
- CONFIG_DM_WARN
-
- Enable the dm_warn() function. This can use up quite a bit
- of space for its strings.
-
- CONFIG_DM_STDIO
-
- Enable registering a serial device with the stdio library.
-
- CONFIG_DM_DEVICE_REMOVE
-
- Enable removing of devices.
-
- Linux Kernel Interface:
CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ
Monitor commands can be included or excluded
from the build by using the #include files
<config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
- commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
- and augmenting with additional #define's
- for wanted commands.
+ commands, or adding #define's for wanted commands.
The default command configuration includes all commands
except those marked below with a "*".
Management command for E1000 devices. When used on devices
with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot.
- CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC
- default MAC for empty EEPROM after production.
-
CONFIG_EEPRO100
Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips.
Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM
Support for i2c bus TPM devices. Only one device
per system is supported at this time.
- CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BUS_NUMBER
- Define the the i2c bus number for the TPM device
-
- CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_SLAVE_ADDRESS
- Define the TPM's address on the i2c bus
-
CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BURST_LIMITATION
Define the burst count bytes upper limit
key for the Replay Protection Memory Block partition in eMMC.
- USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support:
- CONFIG_DFU_FUNCTION
+ CONFIG_USB_FUNCTION_DFU
This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
CONFIG_CMD_DFU
sending again an USB request to the device.
- USB Device Android Fastboot support:
+ CONFIG_USB_FUNCTION_FASTBOOT
+ This enables the USB part of the fastboot gadget
+
CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT
This enables the command "fastboot" which enables the Android
fastboot mode for the platform's USB device. Fastboot is a USB
This enables support for booting images which use the Android
image format header.
- CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR
+ CONFIG_FASTBOOT_BUF_ADDR
The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
downloads. Define this to the starting RAM address to use for
downloaded images.
- CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE
+ CONFIG_FASTBOOT_BUF_SIZE
The fastboot protocol requires a large memory buffer for
downloads. This buffer should be as large as possible for a
platform. Define this to the size available RAM for fastboot.
this is instead controlled by the value of
/config/load-environment.
+- Parallel Flash support:
+ CONFIG_SYS_NO_FLASH
+
+ Traditionally U-boot was run on systems with parallel NOR
+ flash. This option is used to disable support for parallel NOR
+ flash. This option should be defined if the board does not have
+ parallel flash.
+
+ If this option is not defined one of the generic flash drivers
+ (e.g. CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER or CONFIG_ST_SMI) must be
+ selected or the board must provide an implementation of the
+ flash API (see include/flash.h).
+
- DataFlash Support:
CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
test ('sf test').
- CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg
-
- Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
- support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
-
CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH Dual flash memories
Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_FW_ADDR is the
virtual address in NOR flash.
+Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support:
+-------------------------------------------
+The Freescale Layerscape Debug Server Support supports the loading of
+"Debug Server firmware" and triggering SP boot-rom.
+This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting.
+
+- CONFIG_FSL_DEBUG_SERVER
+ Enable the Debug Server for Layerscape SoCs.
+
+- CONFIG_SYS_DEBUG_SERVER_DRAM_BLOCK_MIN_SIZE
+ Define minimum DDR size required for debug server image
+
+- CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE_MIN
+ Define minimum DDR size to be hided from top of the DDR memory
+
+Reproducible builds
+-------------------
+
+In order to achieve reproducible builds, timestamps used in the U-Boot build
+process have to be set to a fixed value.
+
+This is done using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable.
+SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is to be set on the build host's shell, not as a configuration
+option for U-Boot or an environment variable in U-Boot.
+
+SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH should be set to a number of seconds since the epoch, in UTC.
