11 This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
12 Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
13 processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
14 initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
17 The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
18 the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
19 header files in common, and special provision has been made to
20 support booting of Linux images.
22 Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
23 configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
24 implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
25 add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
26 code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
27 load and run it dynamically.
33 In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
34 Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
35 "working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.
37 In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out
38 who contributed the specific port. The boards.cfg file lists board
41 Note: There is no CHANGELOG file in the actual U-Boot source tree;
42 it can be created dynamically from the Git log using:
50 In case you have questions about, problems with or contributions for
51 U-Boot you should send a message to the U-Boot mailing list at

223 Software Configuration:
224 =======================
226 Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
227 rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.
229 There are two classes of configuration variables:
231 * Configuration _OPTIONS_:
232 These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
235 * Configuration _SETTINGS_:
236 These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if
237 you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with
240 Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even
241 identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to
242 do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic
243 links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards
247 Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
248 ---------------------------------------------------
250 For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
251 configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
253 Example: For a TQM823L module type:
258 For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
259 e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
260 directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
263 Configuration Options:
264 ----------------------
266 Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
267 such information is kept in a configuration file
268 "include/configs/<board_name>.h".
270 Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
271 "include/configs/TQM823L.h".
274 Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
275 kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
276 build a config tool - later.
279 The following options need to be configured:
281 - CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
283 - Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
285 - CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
286 Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
288 - CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
289 Define exactly one of
291 --- FIXME --- not tested yet:
292 CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
293 CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
295 - Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
296 Define exactly one of
297 CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
299 - Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
300 Define one or more of
303 - Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)
304 Define one or more of
305 CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on
306 the LCD display every second with
309 - Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined)
312 CONFIG_SYS_8260ADS - original MPC8260ADS
313 CONFIG_SYS_8266ADS - MPC8266ADS
314 CONFIG_SYS_PQ2FADS - PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR
315 CONFIG_SYS_8272ADS - MPC8272ADS
317 - Marvell Family Member
318 CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable
319 multiple fs option at one time
320 for marvell soc family
322 - MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
323 Define exactly one of
324 CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
326 - 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)
327 CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if
328 get_gclk_freq() cannot work
329 e.g. if there is no 32KHz
330 reference PIT/RTC clock
331 CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
334 - 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):
335 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN
336 CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX
337 CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT
338 See doc/README.MPC866
340 CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK
342 Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead
343 of relying on the correctness of the configured
344 values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure
345 the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note
346 that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz
347 RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN)
349 CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE
351 Define this option if you want to enable the
352 ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
357 Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
358 the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
359 compliance, among other possible reasons.
361 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
363 Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
364 system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ
365 devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc.
367 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT
369 Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device
370 tree nodes for the given platform.
372 CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
374 Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
375 around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
376 support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
377 breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this
378 symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this
381 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510
383 Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set,
384 then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and
385 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set.
387 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV
388 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional)
390 Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR)
391 for which the A004510 workaround should be applied.
393 The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision
394 of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus
395 p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls
396 whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set.
398 See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about
401 CONFIG_A003399_NOR_WORKAROUND
402 Enables a workaround for IFC erratum A003399. It is only
403 requred during NOR boot.
405 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY
407 This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600
408 according to the A004510 workaround.
410 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_DDR_ADDR
411 This value denotes start offset of DDR memory which is
412 connected exclusively to the DSP cores.
414 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M2_RAM_ADDR
415 This value denotes start offset of M2 memory
416 which is directly connected to the DSP core.
418 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_M3_RAM_ADDR
419 This value denotes start offset of M3 memory which is directly
420 connected to the DSP core.
422 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DSP_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT
423 This value denotes start offset of DSP CCSR space.
425 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SINGLE_SOURCE_CLK
426 Single Source Clock is clocking mode present in some of FSL SoC's.
427 In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
428 clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
430 - Generic CPU options:
431 CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
433 Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
434 values is arch specific.
437 Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is
438 found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core
441 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_ADDR
442 Freescale DDR memory-mapped register base.

457 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_ARM_GEN3
458 Freescale DDR3 controller for ARM-based SoCs.
461 Board config to use DDR1. It can be enabled for SoCs with
462 Freescale DDR1 or DDR2 controllers, depending on the board
466 Board config to use DDR2. It can be eanbeld for SoCs with
467 Freescale DDR2 or DDR3 controllers, depending on the board
471 Board config to use DDR3. It can be enabled for SoCs with
472 Freescale DDR3 controllers.
474 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_IFC_BE
475 Defines the IFC controller register space as Big Endian
477 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_IFC_LE
478 Defines the IFC controller register space as Little Endian
480 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PBL_PBI
481 It enables addition of RCW (Power on reset configuration) in built image.
482 Please refer doc/README.pblimage for more details
484 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PBL_RCW
485 It adds PBI(pre-boot instructions) commands in u-boot build image.
486 PBI commands can be used to configure SoC before it starts the execution.
487 Please refer doc/README.pblimage for more details

493 Defines the DDR controller register space as Little Endian
495 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_SDRAM_BASE_PHY
496 Physical address from the view of DDR controllers. It is the
497 same as CONFIG_SYS_DDR_SDRAM_BASE for all Power SoCs. But
498 it could be different for ARM SoCs.
500 CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR_INTLV_256B
501 DDR controller interleaving on 256-byte. This is a special
502 interleaving mode, handled by Dickens for Freescale layerscape
505 - Intel Monahans options:
506 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO
508 Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator
509 ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core
510 frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz.
512 CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO
514 Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator
515 ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and
516 2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied
520 CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET

538 CONF_CM_CACHABLE_ACCELERATED
540 CONFIG_SYS_XWAY_EBU_BOOTCFG
542 Special option for Lantiq XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash.
543 See also arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.S.
545 CONFIG_XWAY_SWAP_BYTES
547 Enable compilation of tools/xway-swap-bytes needed for Lantiq
548 XWAY SoCs for booting from NOR flash. The U-Boot image needs to
549 be swapped if a flash programmer is used.
552 CONFIG_SYS_EXCEPTION_VECTORS_HIGH
554 Select high exception vectors of the ARM core, e.g., do not
555 clear the V bit of the c1 register of CP15.
557 CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD
559 Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction
560 set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides
561 better code density. For ARM architectures that support
562 Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by
565 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_716044
566 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_742230
567 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_743622
568 CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_751472
570 If set, the workarounds for these ARM errata are applied early
571 during U-Boot startup. Note that these options force the
572 workarounds to be applied; no CPU-type/version detection
573 exists, unlike the similar options in the Linux kernel. Do not
574 set these options unless they apply!
579 The frequency of the timer returned by get_timer().
580 get_timer() must operate in milliseconds and this CONFIG
581 option must be set to 1000.
583 - Linux Kernel Interface:
586 U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
587 internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
588 kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
589 bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
590 "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
591 converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
593 When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
594 "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the
597 CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only]
599 When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions
600 expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.
601 Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.
605 New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be
606 passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware
610 * New libfdt-based support
611 * Adds the "fdt" command
612 * The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
614 OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node (only required for
615 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
616 OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node (only required for
617 MPC512X and MPC5xxx based boards).
618 OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
619 OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
621 boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
624 CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
626 Board code has addition modification that it wants to make
627 to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel
631 This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
632 param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
636 U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
637 If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
638 removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
639 so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
640 crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
641 no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.
643 CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory]
645 This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
646 machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
647 number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
648 (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
649 Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
650 in a single configuration file and the machine type is
651 runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
653 - vxWorks boot parameters:
655 bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
656 environments variables: bootfile, ipaddr, serverip, hostname.
657 It loads the vxWorks image pointed bootfile.
659 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_DEVICE - The vxworks device name
660 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_MAC_PTR - Ethernet 6 byte MA -address
661 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_SERVERNAME - Name of the server
662 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_BOOT_ADDR - Address of boot parameters
664 CONFIG_SYS_VXWORKS_ADD_PARAMS
666 Add it at the end of the bootline. E.g "u=username pw=secret"
668 Note: If a "bootargs" environment is defined, it will overwride
669 the defaults discussed just above.
671 - Cache Configuration:
672 CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF - Do not enable instruction cache in U-Boot
673 CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF - Do not enable data cache in U-Boot
674 CONFIG_SYS_L2CACHE_OFF- Do not enable L2 cache in U-Boot
676 - Cache Configuration for ARM:
677 CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - Enable support for ARM PL310 L2 cache
679 CONFIG_SYS_PL310_BASE - Physical base address of PL310
680 controller register space
685 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.
689 Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.
693 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to
694 the clock speed of the UARTs.
698 If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
699 define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
700 port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
702 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR
704 Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500)
705 have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set
706 this variable to initialize the extra register.
708 CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT
710 On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage
711 boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this
712 variable to flush the UART at init time.
716 Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
717 (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
718 CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial
719 console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE
721 Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial
722 port routines must be defined elsewhere
723 (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)
726 Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following
727 defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042)
728 VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN graphic memory organisation

755 CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO display Linux logo in
757 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO use bmp_logo.h instead of
758 linux_logo.h for logo.
759 Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO
760 CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO
761 additional board info beside
764 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support
765 a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control,
766 erase functions and limited graphics rendition control).
768 When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
769 default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
770 environment 'console=serial'.
772 When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
773 messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
774 the "silent" environment variable. See
775 doc/README.silent for more information.
777 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
779 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
783 CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
784 Select one of the baudrates listed in
785 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
786 CONFIG_SYS_BRGCLK_PRESCALE, baudrate prescale
788 - Console Rx buffer length
789 With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define
790 the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC.
791 This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible.
792 If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE
793 must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for
796 - Pre-Console Buffer:
797 Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
798 initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
799 Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
800 buffer any console messages prior to the console being
801 initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
802 bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
803 a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
804 bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
805 earlier bytes are discarded.
807 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
808 CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
810 - Safe printf() functions
811 Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
812 the printf() functions. These are defined in
813 include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and
814 so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes.
815 If this option is not given then these functions will
816 silently discard their buffer size argument - this means
817 you are not getting any overflow checking in this case.
819 - Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
820 Delay before automatically booting the default image;
821 set to -1 to disable autoboot.
822 set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort
823 (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined).
825 See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
826 work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
827 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
828 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
829 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
830 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
831 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
832 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
833 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
834 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
835 CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
836 CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY
840 Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
841 define a command string that is automatically executed
842 when no character is read on the console interface
843 within "Boot Delay" after reset.
846 This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
847 command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
848 environment value "bootargs".
850 CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT
851 The value of these goes into the environment as
852 "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used
853 as a convenience, when switching between booting from
857 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
858 Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
860 http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
863 If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
864 "bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
865 saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
866 "upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
867 0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
868 1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
869 So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
870 and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
875 When this option is #defined, the existence of the
876 environment variable "preboot" will be checked
877 immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY
878 countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.
879 entering interactive mode.
881 This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is
882 automatically generated or modified. For an example
883 see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is
884 modified when the user holds down a certain
885 combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when
888 - Serial Download Echo Mode:
890 If defined to 1, all characters received during a
891 serial download (using the "loads" command) are
892 echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal
893 emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take
894 time on others. This setting #define's the initial
895 value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.
897 - Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
899 Select one of the baudrates listed in
900 CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.
903 Monitor commands can be included or excluded
904 from the build by using the #include files
905 <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted
906 commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h>
907 and augmenting with additional #define's

1017 EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
1018 support you can write:
1020 #include "config_cmd_all.h"
1021 #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET
1024 fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT
1026 Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
1027 (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know
1028 what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data
1029 cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or
1030 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be
1031 uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other
1032 systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an
1033 initial stack and some data.
1036 XXX - this list needs to get updated!
1038 - Regular expression support:
1040 If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
1041 the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
1042 which adds regex support to some commands, as for
1043 example "env grep" and "setexpr".
1047 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree
1048 to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically
1049 compiled #defines in the board file. This option is
1050 experimental and only available on a few boards. The device
1051 tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob.
1053 U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can
1054 be done using one of the two options below:
1057 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree
1058 binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the
1059 board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file
1060 is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through
1061 the global data structure as gd->blob.
1064 If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree
1065 binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific
1066 code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by:
1068 cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin
1070 and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called
1071 u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can
1072 still use the individual files if you need something more
1077 If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
1078 support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC
1079 specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260
1080 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR
1081 register. When supported for a specific SoC is
1082 available, then no further board specific code should
1083 be needed to use it.
1086 When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used
1087 SoC, then define this variable and provide board
1088 specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
1091 CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE
1092 If this variable is defined, an environment variable
1093 named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot
1094 version as printed by the "version" command.
1095 Any change to this variable will be reverted at the
1100 When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
1101 has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
1104 CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx
1105 CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC
1106 CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC
1107 CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC
1108 CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
1109 CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
1110 CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC
1111 CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC
1112 CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC
1113 CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC
1114 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337
1115 CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on
1118 Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1119 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1122 CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO
1124 The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of
1125 chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of
1126 pins supported by a particular chip.
1128 Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface
1129 must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.
1131 - Timestamp Support:
1133 When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp
1134 (date and time) of an image is printed by image
1135 commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is
1136 automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .
1138 - Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported:
1139 Zero or more of the following:
1140 CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table.
1141 CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the
1142 Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc.
1143 CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc.
1144 CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the
1145 bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see
1147 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table.
1149 If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or
1150 CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at
1151 least one non-MTD partition type as well.
1154 CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several
1155 board configurations files but used nowhere!
1157 CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will
1158 be performed by calling the function
1159 ide_set_reset(int reset)
1160 which has to be defined in a board specific file
1165 Set this to enable ATAPI support.
1170 Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB
1171 Also look at CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA.
1172 Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'
1173 support disks up to 2.1TB.
1175 CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA:
1176 When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.
1180 At the moment only there is only support for the
1181 SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
1182 CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
1184 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and
1185 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID *
1186 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the
1187 maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target
1189 CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
1191 The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
1192 SCSI devices found during the last scan.
1194 - NETWORK Support (PCI):
1196 Support for Intel 8254x/8257x gigabit chips.
1199 Utility code for direct access to the SPI bus on Intel 8257x.
1200 This does not do anything useful unless you set at least one
1201 of CONFIG_CMD_E1000 or CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC.
1203 CONFIG_E1000_SPI_GENERIC
1204 Allow generic access to the SPI bus on the Intel 8257x, for
1205 example with the "sspi" command.
1208 Management command for E1000 devices. When used on devices
1209 with SPI support you can reprogram the EEPROM from U-Boot.
1211 CONFIG_E1000_FALLBACK_MAC
1212 default MAC for empty EEPROM after production.
1215 Support for Intel 82557/82559/82559ER chips.
1216 Optional CONFIG_EEPRO100_SROM_WRITE enables EEPROM
1217 write routine for first time initialisation.
1220 Support for Digital 2114x chips.
1221 Optional CONFIG_TULIP_SELECT_MEDIA for board specific
1222 modem chip initialisation (KS8761/QS6611).
1225 Support for National dp83815 chips.
1228 Support for National dp8382[01] gigabit chips.
1230 - NETWORK Support (other):
1232 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC
1233 Support for AT91RM9200 EMAC.
1236 Define this to use reduced MII inteface
1238 CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC_QUIET
1239 If this defined, the driver is quiet.
1240 The driver doen't show link status messages.
1242 CONFIG_CALXEDA_XGMAC
1243 Support for the Calxeda XGMAC device
1246 Support for SMSC's LAN91C96 chips.
1248 CONFIG_LAN91C96_BASE
1249 Define this to hold the physical address
1250 of the LAN91C96's I/O space
1252 CONFIG_LAN91C96_USE_32_BIT
1253 Define this to enable 32 bit addressing
1256 Support for SMSC's LAN91C111 chip
1258 CONFIG_SMC91111_BASE
1259 Define this to hold the physical address
1260 of the device (I/O space)
1262 CONFIG_SMC_USE_32_BIT
1263 Define this if data bus is 32 bits
1265 CONFIG_SMC_USE_IOFUNCS
1266 Define this to use i/o functions instead of macros
1267 (some hardware wont work with macros)
1269 CONFIG_DRIVER_TI_EMAC
1270 Support for davinci emac
1272 CONFIG_SYS_DAVINCI_EMAC_PHY_COUNT
1273 Define this if you have more then 3 PHYs.
1276 Support for Faraday's FTGMAC100 Gigabit SoC Ethernet
1278 CONFIG_FTGMAC100_EGIGA
1279 Define this to use GE link update with gigabit PHY.
1280 Define this if FTGMAC100 is connected to gigabit PHY.
1281 If your system has 10/100 PHY only, it might not occur
1282 wrong behavior. Because PHY usually return timeout or
1283 useless data when polling gigabit status and gigabit
1284 control registers. This behavior won't affect the
1285 correctnessof 10/100 link speed update.
1288 Support for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x chips
1291 Define this to hold the physical address
1292 of the device (I/O space)
1294 CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT
1295 Define this if data bus is 32 bits
1297 CONFIG_SMC911X_16_BIT
1298 Define this if data bus is 16 bits. If your processor
1299 automatically converts one 32 bit word to two 16 bit
1300 words you may also try CONFIG_SMC911X_32_BIT.

1319 Support for i2c bus TPM devices. Only one device
1320 per system is supported at this time.
1322 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BUS_NUMBER
1323 Define the the i2c bus number for the TPM device
1325 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_SLAVE_ADDRESS
1326 Define the TPM's address on the i2c bus
1328 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_I2C_BURST_LIMITATION
1329 Define the burst count bytes upper limit
1331 CONFIG_TPM_ATMEL_TWI
1332 Support for Atmel TWI TPM device. Requires I2C support.
1335 Support for generic parallel port TPM devices. Only one device
1336 per system is supported at this time.
1338 CONFIG_TPM_TIS_BASE_ADDRESS
1339 Base address where the generic TPM device is mapped
1340 to. Contemporary x86 systems usually map it at
1344 Add tpm monitor functions.
1345 Requires CONFIG_TPM. If CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS is set, also
1346 provides monitor access to authorized functions.
1349 Define this to enable the TPM support library which provides
1350 functional interfaces to some TPM commands.
1351 Requires support for a TPM device.
1353 CONFIG_TPM_AUTH_SESSIONS
1354 Define this to enable authorized functions in the TPM library.
1355 Requires CONFIG_TPM and CONFIG_SHA1.
1358 At the moment only the UHCI host controller is
1359 supported (PIP405, MIP405, MPC5200); define
1360 CONFIG_USB_UHCI to enable it.
1361 define CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD to enable the USB Keyboard
1362 and define CONFIG_USB_STORAGE to enable the USB
1365 Supported are USB Keyboards and USB Floppy drives
1367 MPC5200 USB requires additional defines:
1369 for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb
1373 for differential drivers: 0x00001000
1374 for single ended drivers: 0x00005000
1375 for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100
1376 for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100
1377 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL
1378 May be defined to allow interrupt polling
1379 instead of using asynchronous interrupts
1381 CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TXFIFO_THRESH enables setting of the
1382 txfilltuning field in the EHCI controller on reset.
1384 CONFIG_USB_HUB_MIN_POWER_ON_DELAY defines the minimum
1385 interval for usb hub power-on delay.(minimum 100msec)
1388 Define the below if you wish to use the USB console.
1389 Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the
1390 command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and
1391 attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print
1392 it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty
1393 can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to
1394 appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a
1395 Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.
1396 If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate
1398 # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID
1399 else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment
1400 variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following
1401 might be defined in YourBoardName.h
1404 Define this to build a UDC device
1407 Define this to have a tty type of device available to
1408 talk to the UDC device
1411 Define this to enable the high speed support for usb
1412 device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine
1413 int is_usbd_high_speed(void)
1414 also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll
1415 whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full
1418 CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV
1419 Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to
1423 CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0xBLAH
1424 Derive USB clock from external clock "blah"
1425 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_EXTC_CLK 0x02
1427 CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0xBLAH
1428 Derive USB clock from brgclk
1429 - CONFIG_SYS_USB_BRG_CLK 0x04
1431 If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to
1432 define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h
1433 or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define
1434 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,
1435 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot
1436 should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.
1438 CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER
1439 Define this string as the name of your company for
1440 - CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER "my company"
1442 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME
1443 Define this string as the name of your product
1444 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME "acme usb device"
1446 CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID
1447 Define this as your assigned Vendor ID from the USB
1448 Implementors Forum. This *must* be a genuine Vendor ID
1449 to avoid polluting the USB namespace.
1450 - CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID 0xFFFF
1452 CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID
1453 Define this as the unique Product ID
1455 - CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID 0xFFFF
1457 Some USB device drivers may need to check USB cable attachment.
1458 In this case you can enable following config in BoardName.h:
1459 CONFIG_USB_CABLE_CHECK
1460 This enables function definition:
1461 - usb_cable_connected() in include/usb.h
1462 Implementation of this function is board-specific.
1464 - ULPI Layer Support:
1465 The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via
1466 the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY
1467 via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and
1468 the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based
1469 viewport is supported.
1470 To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and
1471 CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file.
1472 If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the
1473 standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to
1474 the appropriate value in Hz.
1477 The MMC controller on the Intel PXA is supported. To
1478 enable this define CONFIG_MMC. The MMC can be
1479 accessed from the boot prompt by mapping the device
1480 to physical memory similar to flash. Command line is
1481 enabled with CONFIG_CMD_MMC. The MMC driver also works with
1482 the FAT fs. This is enabled with CONFIG_CMD_FAT.
1485 Support for Renesas on-chip MMCIF controller
1487 CONFIG_SH_MMCIF_ADDR
1488 Define the base address of MMCIF registers
1491 Define the clock frequency for MMCIF
1493 - USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) class support:
1495 This enables the USB portion of the DFU USB class
1498 This enables the command "dfu" which is used to have
1499 U-Boot create a DFU class device via USB. This command
1500 requires that the "dfu_alt_info" environment variable be
1501 set and define the alt settings to expose to the host.
1504 This enables support for exposing (e)MMC devices via DFU.
1507 This enables support for exposing NAND devices via DFU.
1510 This enables support for exposing RAM via DFU.
1511 Note: DFU spec refer to non-volatile memory usage, but
1512 allow usages beyond the scope of spec - here RAM usage,
1513 one that would help mostly the developer.
1515 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE
1516 Dfu transfer uses a buffer before writing data to the
1517 raw storage device. Make the size (in bytes) of this buffer
1518 configurable. The size of this buffer is also configurable
1519 through the "dfu_bufsiz" environment variable.
1521 CONFIG_SYS_DFU_MAX_FILE_SIZE
1522 When updating files rather than the raw storage device,
1523 we use a static buffer to copy the file into and then write
1524 the buffer once we've been given the whole file. Define
1525 this to the maximum filesize (in bytes) for the buffer.
1526 Default is 4 MiB if undefined.
1528 - Journaling Flash filesystem support:
1529 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_OFF, CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_SIZE,
1530 CONFIG_JFFS2_NAND_DEV
1531 Define these for a default partition on a NAND device
1533 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR,
1534 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK, CONFIG_SYS_JFFS2_NUM_BANKS
1535 Define these for a default partition on a NOR device
1537 CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
1538 Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a
1539 function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
1541 If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to
1542 #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1
1543 to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you
1544 have not defined a custom partition
1546 - FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem write function support:
1549 Define this to enable support for saving memory data as a
1550 file in FAT formatted partition.
1552 This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
1553 user to write files to FAT.
1555 CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
1558 Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1559 filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
1565 Define this to enable standard (PC-Style) keyboard
1569 Standard PC keyboard driver with US (is default) and
1570 GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support.
1571 Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc
1572 for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking.
1575 Enables a Chrome OS keyboard using the CROS_EC interface.
1576 This uses CROS_EC to communicate with a second microcontroller
1577 which provides key scans on request.
1582 Define this to enable video support (for output to
1585 CONFIG_VIDEO_CT69000
1587 Enable Chips & Technologies 69000 Video chip
1589 CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI_LYNXEM
1590 Enable Silicon Motion SMI 712/710/810 Video chip. The
1591 video output is selected via environment 'videoout'
1592 (1 = LCD and 2 = CRT). If videoout is undefined, CRT is
1595 For the CT69000 and SMI_LYNXEM drivers, videomode is
1596 selected via environment 'videomode'. Two different ways
1598 - "videomode=num" 'num' is a standard LiLo mode numbers.
1599 Following standard modes are supported (* is default):
1601 Colors 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x1024
1602 -------------+---------------------------------------------
1603 8 bits | 0x301* 0x303 0x305 0x161 0x307
1604 15 bits | 0x310 0x313 0x316 0x162 0x319
1605 16 bits | 0x311 0x314 0x317 0x163 0x31A
1606 24 bits | 0x312 0x315 0x318 ? 0x31B
1607 -------------+---------------------------------------------
1608 (i.e. setenv videomode 317; saveenv; reset;)
1610 - "videomode=bootargs" all the video parameters are parsed
1611 from the bootargs. (See drivers/video/videomodes.c)
1614 CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806
1615 Enable Epson SED13806 driver. This driver supports 8bpp
1616 and 16bpp modes defined by CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_8BPP
1617 or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
1620 Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for
1621 SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU
1622 support, and should also define these other macros:
1628 CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
1629 CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
1631 CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO
1633 The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment
1634 variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during
1635 boot. See the documentation file README.video for a
1636 description of this variable.
1640 Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
1641 are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
1648 Define this to enable a custom keyboard support.
1649 This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be
1650 defined in your board-specific files.
1651 The only board using this so far is RBC823.
1653 - LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD
1655 Define this to enable LCD support (for output to LCD
1656 display); also select one of the supported displays
1657 by defining one of these:
1661 HITACHI TX09D70VM1CCA, 3.5", 240x320.
1663 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448AC33:
1665 NEC NL6448AC33-18. Active, color, single scan.
1667 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC20
1669 NEC NL6448BC20-08. 6.5", 640x480.
1670 Active, color, single scan.
1672 CONFIG_NEC_NL6448BC33_54
1674 NEC NL6448BC33-54. 10.4", 640x480.
1675 Active, color, single scan.
1679 Sharp 320x240. Active, color, single scan.
1680 It isn't 16x9, and I am not sure what it is.
1682 CONFIG_SHARP_LQ64D341
1684 Sharp LQ64D341 display, 640x480.
1685 Active, color, single scan.
1689 HLD1045 display, 640x480.
1690 Active, color, single scan.
1694 Optrex CBL50840-2 NF-FW 99 22 M5
1696 Hitachi LMG6912RPFC-00T
1700 320x240. Black & white.
1702 Normally display is black on white background; define
1703 CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
1705 CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
1707 Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is
1708 defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead.
1709 For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE
1710 here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
1711 a per-section basis.
1713 CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
1715 When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
1716 lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
1717 the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
1722 Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
1726 Enables an 'i2c edid' command which can read EDID
1727 information over I2C from an attached LCD display.
1729 - Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
1731 If this option is set, the environment is checked for
1732 a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display
1733 of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD
1734 is suppressed and the BMP image at the address
1735 specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The
1736 console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This
1737 allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
1738 loaded very quickly after power-on.
1740 CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD
1742 If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment
1743 variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address
1744 (see README.displaying-bmps).
1745 This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment
1746 restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data
1747 abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned
1748 accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them)
1749 there is no need to set this option.
1751 CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
1753 If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
1754 on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
1755 position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
1756 number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
1757 is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
1758 specify 'm' for centering the image.
1761 setenv splashpos m,m
1762 => image at center of screen
1764 setenv splashpos 30,20
1765 => image at x = 30 and y = 20
1767 setenv splashpos -10,m
1768 => vertically centered image
1769 at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
1771 - Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
1773 If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
1774 images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
1775 splashscreen support or the bmp command.
1777 - Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
1779 If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
1780 can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
1783 - Do compresssing for memory range:
1786 If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
1787 to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
1789 - Compression support:
1792 Enabled by default to support gzip compressed images.
1796 If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed
1797 images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip
1798 compressed images are supported.
1800 NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so
1801 the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should
1806 If this option is set, support for lzma compressed
1809 Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it
1810 requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the
1813 (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16)
1815 Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits
1816 and Literal pos bits.
1818 This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway,
1819 for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a
1820 total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is
1821 a very small buffer.
1823 Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and
1824 then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring
1825 the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value).
1829 If this option is set, support for LZO compressed images
1835 The address of PHY on MII bus.
1837 CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx)
1839 The clock frequency of the MII bus
1843 If this option is set, support for speed/duplex
1844 detection of gigabit PHY is included.
1846 CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY
1848 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1849 reset before any MII register access is possible.
1850 For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay
1851 required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)
1853 CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)
1855 Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after
1856 command issued before MII status register can be read
1866 Define a default value for Ethernet address to use
1867 for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this
1868 is not determined automatically.
1873 Define a default value for the IP address to use for
1874 the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not
1875 determined through e.g. bootp.
1876 (Environment variable "ipaddr")
1878 - Server IP address:
1881 Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
1882 server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
1883 (Environment variable "serverip")
1885 CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
1887 Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
1888 for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
1890 - Gateway IP address:
1893 Defines a default value for the IP address of the
1894 default router where packets to other networks are
1896 (Environment variable "gatewayip")
1901 Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or
1902 routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP
1903 address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be
1904 forwarded through a router.
1905 (Environment variable "netmask")
1907 - Multicast TFTP Mode:
1910 Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per
1911 rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets
1912 tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet
1913 driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a
1916 - BOOTP Recovery Mode:
1917 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY
1919 If you have many targets in a network that try to
1920 boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all
1921 systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same
1922 moment (which would happen for instance at recovery
1923 from a power failure, when all systems will try to
1924 boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining
1925 CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be
1926 inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The
1927 following delays are inserted then:
1929 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec
1930 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec
1931 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec
1933 BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec
1935 - DHCP Advanced Options:
1936 You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining
1937 CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:
1939 CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK
1940 CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY
1941 CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME
1942 CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN
1943 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH
1944 CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE
1947 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
1948 CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER
1949 CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET
1950 CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX
1951 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL
1953 CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip
1954 environment variable, not the BOOTP server.
1956 CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found
1957 after the configured retry count, the call will fail
1958 instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over
1959 to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server
1962 CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS
1963 serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more
1964 than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.
1965 If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS
1966 serverip will be stored in the additional environment
1967 variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always
1968 stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS
1971 CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
1972 to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they
1973 need the hostname of the DHCP requester.
1974 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
1975 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
1976 option 12 to the DHCP server.
1978 CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY
1980 A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
1981 receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
1982 This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
1983 respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
1984 AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
1985 to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
1986 DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
1987 least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
1988 that one of the retries will be successful but note that
1989 the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
1992 - Link-local IP address negotiation:
1993 Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network
1994 for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration.
1995 This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed
1996 to exist in all environments that the device must operate.
1998 See doc/README.link-local for more information.
2001 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID
2003 The device id used in CDP trigger frames.
2005 CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX
2007 A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address
2012 A printf format string which contains the ascii name of
2013 the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets
2014 eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.
2016 CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES
2018 A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;
2019 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.
2023 An ascii string containing the version of the software.
2027 An ascii string containing the name of the platform.
2031 A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.
2033 CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION
2035 A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the
2036 device in .1 of milliwatts.
2038 CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE
2040 A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
2042 - Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED
2044 Several configurations allow to display the current
2045 status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
2046 fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as
2047 soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
2048 start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
2049 (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
2050 kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
2056 The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
2057 In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
2058 status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
2059 to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
2061 CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
2062 Some GPIO connected LEDs may have inverted polarity in which
2063 case the GPIO high value corresponds to LED off state and
2064 GPIO low value corresponds to LED on state.
2065 In such cases CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE may be defined
2066 with a list of GPIO LEDs that have inverted polarity.
2068 - CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER
2070 Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support
2071 on those systems that support this (optional)
2072 feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.
2074 - I2C Support: CONFIG_SYS_I2C
2076 This enable the NEW i2c subsystem, and will allow you to use
2077 i2c commands at the u-boot command line (as long as you set
2078 CONFIG_CMD_I2C in CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c
2079 based realtime clock chips or other i2c devices. See

2185 with a fix speed from 100000 and the slave addr 0!
2189 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES
2190 Hold the number of i2c busses you want to use. If you
2191 don't use/have i2c muxes on your i2c bus, this
2192 is equal to CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_ADAPTERS, and you can
2195 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS
2196 define this, if you don't use i2c muxes on your hardware.
2197 if CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS is not defined or == 0 you can
2200 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS
2201 define how many muxes are maximal consecutively connected
2202 on one i2c bus. If you not use i2c muxes, omit this
2205 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES
2206 hold a list of busses you want to use, only used if
2207 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined, for example
2208 a board with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS = 1 and
2209 CONFIG_SYS_NUM_I2C_BUSES = 9:
2211 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES {{0, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2212 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 1}}}, \

2216 {0, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9547, 0x70, 5}}}, \
2217 {1, {I2C_NULL_HOP}}, \
2218 {1, {{I2C_MUX_PCA9544, 0x72, 1}}}, \

2230 bus 7 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 1
2231 bus 8 on adapter 1 with a PCA9544 on address 0x72 port 2
2233 If you do not have i2c muxes on your board, omit this define.
2235 - Legacy I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C
2237 NOTE: It is intended to move drivers to CONFIG_SYS_I2C which
2238 provides the following compelling advantages:
2240 - more than one i2c adapter is usable
2241 - approved multibus support
2242 - better i2c mux support
2244 ** Please consider updating your I2C driver now. **
2246 These enable legacy I2C serial bus commands. Defining
2247 CONFIG_HARD_I2C will include the appropriate I2C driver
2248 for the selected CPU.
2250 This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot
2251 command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in
2252 CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
2253 clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
2254 command line interface.
2256 CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.
2258 There are several other quantities that must also be
2259 defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2261 In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED
2262 to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
2263 to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
2264 the CPU's i2c node address).
2266 Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx
2267 (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node
2268 and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See,
2269 eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set
2270 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
2272 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
2274 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2275 chips might think that the current transfer is still
2276 in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start
2277 commands until the slave device responds.
2279 That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
2281 If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SOFT)
2282 then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
2283 from include/configs/lwmon.h):
2287 (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
2288 controller or configure ports.
2290 eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL)
2294 (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
2295 assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values
2296 are 0..3 for ports A..D.
2300 The code necessary to make the I2C data line active
2301 (driven). If the data line is open collector, this
2304 eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA)
2308 The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
2309 (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this
2312 eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
2316 Code that returns true if the I2C data line is high,
2319 eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
2323 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C data line high. If it
2324 is false, it clears it (low).
2326 eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
2327 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \
2328 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
2332 If <bit> is true, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
2333 is false, it clears it (low).
2335 eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
2336 if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \
2337 else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
2341 This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
2342 controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus
2343 is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
2346 #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2)
2348 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA
2350 If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h),
2351 then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be
2352 used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will
2353 have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate.
2355 You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to
2356 the generic GPIO functions.
2358 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD
2360 When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
2361 chips might think that the current transfer is still
2362 in progress. On some boards it is possible to access
2363 the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the
2364 processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin
2365 connected to the bus. If this option is defined a
2366 custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
2367 is run early in the boot sequence.
2369 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
2371 An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
2372 defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
2373 boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
2374 is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
2375 using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
2376 controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
2377 i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
2378 controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
2380 CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
2382 This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
2383 in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
2384 variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)
2386 CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2388 This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which
2389 must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is
2390 active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.
2391 Note that bus numbering is zero-based.
2393 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES
2395 This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped
2396 when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2397 is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify
2398 a 1D array of device addresses
2401 #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2402 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68}
2404 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus
2406 #define CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS
2407 #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}
2409 will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1
2411 CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM
2413 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.
2414 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.
2416 CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM
2418 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.
2419 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.
2421 CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM
2423 If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.
2424 If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.
2426 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR:
2428 If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device.
2429 If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for
2430 specified DTT device.
2432 CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START
2434 defining this will force the i2c_read() function in
2435 the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start
2436 between writing the address pointer and reading the
2437 data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour
2438 of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C
2439 devices can use either method, but some require one or
2442 - SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI
2444 Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with
2445 SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and
2446 D/As on the SACSng board)
2450 Enables the driver for SPI controller on SuperH. Currently
2451 only SH7757 is supported.
2455 Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.
2456 (symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)
2460 Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than
2461 using hardware support. This is a general purpose
2462 driver that only requires three general I/O port pins
2463 (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is
2464 defined, the board configuration must define several
2465 SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For
2466 an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.
2470 Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads
2471 and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration
2472 must define a list of chip-select function pointers.
2473 Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an
2474 example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.
2478 Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC
2479 SoCs. Currently i.MX31/35/51 are supported.
2481 - FPGA Support: CONFIG_FPGA
2483 Enables FPGA subsystem.
2485 CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>
2487 Enables support for specific chip vendors.
2490 CONFIG_FPGA_<family>
2492 Enables support for FPGA family.
2493 (SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)
2497 Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.
2499 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK
2501 Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.
2503 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY
2505 Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy
2506 status by the configuration function. This option
2507 will require a board or device specific function to
2512 If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA
2513 configuration driver.
2515 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC
2516 Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration
2518 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR
2520 Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile
2521 loading. For example, abort during Virtex II
2522 configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which
2523 indicated a CRC error).
2525 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT
2527 Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert
2528 after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II
2529 FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500
2532 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY
2534 Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during
2535 Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.
2537 CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG
2539 Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is
2542 - Configuration Management:
2545 If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot
2546 version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)
2548 - Vendor Parameter Protection:
2550 U-Boot considers the values of the environment
2551 variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and
2552 "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that
2553 are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and
2554 protects these variables from casual modification by
2555 the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,
2556 and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can
2557 change this behaviour:
2559 If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config
2560 file, the write protection for vendor parameters is
2561 completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete
2564 Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR
2565 _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default
2566 Ethernet address is installed in the environment,
2567 which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The
2568 serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains
2571 The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way
2572 for any variable by configuring the type of access
2573 to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable
2574 or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC.
2579 Define this variable to enable the reservation of
2580 "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten
2581 by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of
2582 kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite
2583 this default value by defining an environment
2584 variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to
2585 reserve. Note that the board info structure will
2586 still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is
2587 reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will
2588 automatically be defined to hold the amount of
2589 remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot
2590 argument to Linux, for instance like that:
2592 setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem}
2595 This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,
2596 either, which results in a memory region that will
2597 not be affected by reboots.
2599 *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic
2600 detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that
2601 this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the
2602 following board configurations are known to be
2605 IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
2606 HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
2609 - Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
2610 Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
2611 normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
2612 support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
2613 machines using physical address extension or similar.
2614 Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
2615 currently only supports clearing the memory.
2620 Define this variable to stop the system in case of a
2621 fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.
2622 This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded
2623 system where you want the system to reboot
2624 automatically as fast as possible, but it may be
2625 useful during development since you can try to debug
2626 the conditions that lead to the situation.
2628 CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
2630 This variable defines the number of retries for
2631 network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP
2632 before giving up the operation. If not defined, a
2633 default value of 5 is used.
2637 Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.
2641 Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol.
2642 If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command,
2643 try longer timeout such as
2644 #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
2646 - Command Interpreter:
2647 CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE
2649 Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.
2651 Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet
2652 for the "hush" shell.
2655 CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER
2657 Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from
2658 Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling
2659 powerful command line syntax like
2660 if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
2661 constructs ("shell scripts").
2663 If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour
2664 with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.
2667 CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
2669 This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
2670 printed when the command interpreter needs more input
2671 to complete a command. Usually "> ".
2675 In the current implementation, the local variables
2676 space and global environment variables space are
2677 separated. Local variables are those you define by
2678 simply typing `name=value'. To access a local
2679 variable later on, you have write `$name' or
2680 `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable
2681 directly type `$name' at the command prompt.
2683 Global environment variables are those you use
2684 setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored
2685 in such a variable, you need to use the run command,
2686 and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.
2688 To store commands and special characters in a
2689 variable, please use double quotation marks
2690 surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead
2691 of the backslashes before semicolons and special
2694 - Commandline Editing and History:
2695 CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING
2697 Enable editing and History functions for interactive
2698 commandline input operations
2700 - Default Environment:
2701 CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS
2703 Define this to contain any number of null terminated
2704 strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of
2705 the default environment compiled into the boot image.
2707 For example, place something like this in your
2708 board's config file:
2710 #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
2714 Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the
2715 internal format how the environment is stored by the
2716 U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported
2717 interface! Although it is unlikely that this format
2718 will change soon, there is no guarantee either.
2719 You better know what you are doing here.
2721 Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is
2722 discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset
2723 the environment like the "source" command or the
2726 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG
2728 Define this in order to add variables describing the
2729 U-Boot build configuration to the default environment.
2730 These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc.
2732 Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined:
2740 CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
2742 Define this in order to add variables describing certain
2743 run-time determined information about the hardware to the
2744 environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev.
2746 CONFIG_DELAY_ENVIRONMENT
2748 Normally the environment is loaded when the board is
2749 intialised so that it is available to U-Boot. This inhibits
2750 that so that the environment is not available until
2751 explicitly loaded later by U-Boot code. With CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
2752 this is instead controlled by the value of
2753 /config/load-environment.
2755 - DataFlash Support:
2756 CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
2758 Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
2759 allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
2762 - Serial Flash support
2765 Defining this option enables SPI flash commands
2766 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'.
2768 Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial
2769 flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update
2772 The following defaults may be provided by the platform
2773 to handle the common case when only a single serial
2774 flash is present on the system.
2776 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier
2777 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select
2778 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h)
2779 CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz
2783 Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
2786 CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg
2788 Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
2789 support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
2791 CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH Dual flash memories
2793 Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
2794 memories can be connected with a given cs line.
2795 currently Xilinx Zynq qspi support these type of connections.
2797 - SystemACE Support:
2800 Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE
2801 chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address
2802 of the chip must also be defined in the
2803 CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:
2805 #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE
2806 #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000
2808 When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
2809 becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
2811 - TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
2814 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp
2815 is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
2816 If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
2817 number generator is used.
2819 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply
2820 the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't
2821 defined, the normal port 69 is used.
2823 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to
2824 blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
2825 target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
2826 "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
2827 the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
2828 A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
2829 but sometimes that is not allowed.
2834 This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce
2835 hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256).
2839 Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code
2842 CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing
2843 CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing
2845 Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps
2846 be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'.
2848 - Freescale i.MX specific commands:
2849 CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
2850 This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
2851 HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific.
2854 This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
2855 a boot from specific media.
2857 This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
2858 activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
2859 on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal
2860 will set it back to normal. This command currently
2861 supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
2866 This enables the RSA algorithm used for FIT image verification
2867 in U-Boot. See doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information.
2869 The signing part is build into mkimage regardless of this
2872 - bootcount support:
2873 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
2875 This enables the bootcounter support, see:
2876 http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
2879 enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
2881 enable special bootcounter support on blackfin based boards.
2883 enable special bootcounter support on da850 based boards.
2884 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_RAM
2885 enable support for the bootcounter in RAM
2886 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_I2C
2887 enable support for the bootcounter on an i2c (like RTC) device.
2888 CONFIG_SYS_I2C_RTC_ADDR = i2c chip address
2889 CONFIG_SYS_BOOTCOUNT_ADDR = i2c addr which is used for
2891 CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ALEN = address len
2893 - Show boot progress:
2894 CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS
2896 Defining this option allows to add some board-
2897 specific code (calling a user-provided function
2898 "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show
2899 the system's boot progress on some display (for
2900 example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,
2901 the following checkpoints are implemented:
2903 - Detailed boot stage timing
2905 Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
2906 of the boot process.
2908 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
2909 This is the number of available user bootstage records.
2910 Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
2911 a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
2912 the limit, recording will stop.
2914 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
2915 Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
2917 Timer summary in microseconds:
2920 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start
2921 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9
2922 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done
2923 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start
2924 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop
2925 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start
2926 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel
2928 CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
2929 Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
2930 and un/stashing of bootstage data.
2932 CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
2933 Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
2934 node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
2935 has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
2936 mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
2937 accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
2942 name = "board_init_f";
2951 Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.

3106 - FIT image support:
3108 Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
3110 CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
3111 When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
3112 one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
3113 U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
3114 most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
3115 The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
3117 CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
3118 This option enables signature verification of FIT uImages,
3119 using a hash signed and verified using RSA. See
3120 doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more details.
3122 - Standalone program support:
3123 CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
3125 This option defines a board specific value for the
3126 address where standalone program gets loaded, thus
3127 overwriting the architecture dependent default
3130 - Frame Buffer Address:
3133 Define CONFIG_FB_ADDR if you want to use specific
3134 address for frame buffer. This is typically the case
3135 when using a graphics controller has separate video
3136 memory. U-Boot will then place the frame buffer at
3137 the given address instead of dynamically reserving it
3138 in system RAM by calling lcd_setmem(), which grabs
3139 the memory for the frame buffer depending on the
3140 configured panel size.
3142 Please see board_init_f function.
3144 - Automatic software updates via TFTP server
3146 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_CNT_MAX
3147 CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP_MSEC_MAX
3149 These options enable and control the auto-update feature;
3150 for a more detailed description refer to doc/README.update.
3152 - MTD Support (mtdparts command, UBI support)
3155 Adds the MTD device infrastructure from the Linux kernel.
3156 Needed for mtdparts command support.
3158 CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS
3160 Adds the MTD partitioning infrastructure from the Linux
3161 kernel. Needed for UBI support.
3166 Adds commands for interacting with MTD partitions formatted
3167 with the UBI flash translation layer
3169 Requires also defining CONFIG_RBTREE
3171 CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
3173 Make the verbose messages from UBI stop printing. This leaves
3174 warnings and errors enabled.
3179 Adds commands for interacting with UBI volumes formatted as
3180 UBIFS. UBIFS is read-only in u-boot.
3182 Requires UBI support as well as CONFIG_LZO
3184 CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
3186 Make the verbose messages from UBIFS stop printing. This leaves
3187 warnings and errors enabled.
3191 Enable building of SPL globally.
3194 LDSCRIPT for linking the SPL binary.
3196 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT
3197 Maximum size in memory allocated to the SPL, BSS included.
3198 When defined, the linker checks that the actual memory
3199 used by SPL from _start to __bss_end does not exceed it.
3200 CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT and CONFIG_SPL_BSS_MAX_SIZE
