This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
-Embedded boards based on PowerPC and ARM processors, which can be
-installed in a boot ROM and used to initialize and test the hardware
-or to download and run application code.
+Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other
+processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to
+initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application
+code.
The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some

- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
the lcd display every second with

-- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
- Define exactly one of
- CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
-

- no 32KHz reference PIT/RTC clock
+- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined)
+ CONFIG_ADSTYPE
+ Possible values are:
+ CFG_8260ADS - original MPC8260ADS
+ CFG_8266ADS - MPC8266ADS
+ CFG_PQ2FADS - PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR
+ CFG_8272ADS - MPC8272ADS
-- Clock Interface:
+- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
+ Define exactly one of
+ CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245
+
+- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx cpu)

+ get_gclk_freq() cannot work
+ e.g. if there is no 32KHz
+ reference PIT/RTC clock
+ CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK
+ or XTAL/EXTAL)
+
+- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):

+
+ CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS
+
+ If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,
+ define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)
+ port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h
+
+
- Console Interface:
Depending on board, define exactly one serial port
(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,
bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS visible pixel columns
(cols=pitch)
- VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS visible pixel rows

VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT keyboard int fct
(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
VIDEO_TSTC_FCT test char fct
default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
environment 'console=serial'.
+ When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
+ messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with
+ the "silent" environment variable. See
+ doc/README.silent for more information.
+

CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
Select one of the baudrates listed in
CFG_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.

(RTS/CTS) and UART's built-in FIFO. Set the number of
bytes the interrupt driven input buffer should have.

- This will also disable hardware handshake.
+ Leave undefined to disable this feature, including
+ disable the buffer and hardware handshake.

+
+ CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable
+ to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they

- I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C
- Enables I2C serial bus commands. If this is selected,
- either CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C must be defined
- to include the appropriate I2C driver.
+ These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of
+ (but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will
+ include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected cpu.
- See also: common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the

+ command line (as long as you set CFG_CMD_I2C in
+ CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime
+ clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the
command line interface.
+ CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects the CPM hardware driver for I2C.
+
+ CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka
+ bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware
+ support for I2C.
- CONFIG_HARD_I2C
+ There are several other quantities that must also be
+ defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C.
- Selects the CPM hardware driver for I2C.
+ In both cases you will need to define CFG_I2C_SPEED
+ to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus
+ to run and CFG_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
+ the cpu's i2c node address).
- CONFIG_SOFT_I2C
+ Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx (cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c)
+ sets the cpu up as a master node and so its address should
+ therefore be cleared to 0 (See, eg, MPC823e User's Manual
+ p.16-473). So, set CFG_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
- Use software (aka bit-banging) driver instead of CPM
- or similar hardware support for I2C. This is configured
- via the following defines.
+ That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
+
+ If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C)
+ then the following macros need to be defined (examples are
+ from include/configs/lwmon.h):
I2C_INIT
- (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable I2C
+ (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C
controller or configure ports.
+ eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL)
+
I2C_PORT
(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code
(driven). If the data line is open collector, this
define can be null.
+ eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA)
+
I2C_TRISTATE
The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated
(inactive). If the data line is open collector, this
define can be null.
+ eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)
+
I2C_READ
Code that returns TRUE if the I2C data line is high,
FALSE if it is low.
+ eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)
+
I2C_SDA(bit)
If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C data line high. If it
is FALSE, it clears it (low).
+ eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \
+ if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \
+ else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA
+
I2C_SCL(bit)
If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C clock line high. If it
is FALSE, it clears it (low).
+ eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \
+ if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \
+ else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL
+
I2C_DELAY
This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this
controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus
- is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4).
+ is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something
+ like:
+
+ #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2)
CFG_I2C_INIT_BOARD
custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
is run early in the boot sequence.
+ CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
+
+ This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags
+ in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment
+ variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)

Modem Support:
Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())
for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.
+- Interrupt support (PPC):
+
+ There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()
+ for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()

+ should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If
+ cpu resets decrementer automatically after interrupt
+ (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.
