24 | Summary: | |
25 | ======== | |
26 | ||
24ee89b9 | 27 | This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for |
e86e5a07 WD |
28 | Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other |
29 | processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to | |
30 | initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application | |
31 | code. | |
c609719b WD |
32 | |
33 | The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of | |
24ee89b9 WD |
34 | the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some |
35 | header files in common, and special provision has been made to | |
c609719b WD |
36 | support booting of Linux images. |
37 | ||
38 | Some attention has been paid to make this software easily | |
39 | configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are | |
40 | implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to | |
41 | add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used | |
42 | code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can | |
43 | load and run it dynamically. | |
44 | ||
45 | ||
46 | Status: | |
47 | ======= | |
48 | ||
49 | In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the | |
24ee89b9 | 50 | Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered |
c609719b WD |
51 | "working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems. |
52 | ||
24ee89b9 | 53 | In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out |
218ca724 WD |
54 | who contributed the specific port. The MAINTAINERS file lists board |
55 | maintainers. | |

57 | Note: There is no CHANGELOG file in the actual U-Boot source tree; |
58 | it can be created dynamically from the Git log using: | |

239 | Software Configuration: |
240 | ======================= | |
241 | ||
242 | Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the | |
243 | rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible. | |
244 | ||
245 | There are two classes of configuration variables: | |
246 | ||
247 | * Configuration _OPTIONS_: | |
248 | These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with | |
249 | "CONFIG_". | |
250 | ||
251 | * Configuration _SETTINGS_: | |
252 | These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if | |
253 | you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with | |
6d0f6bcf | 254 | "CONFIG_SYS_". |
c609719b WD |
255 | |
256 | Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even | |
257 | identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to | |
258 | do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic | |
259 | links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards | |
260 | as an example here. | |
261 | ||
262 | ||
263 | Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: | |
264 | --------------------------------------------------- | |
265 | ||
266 | For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default | |
267 | configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config". | |
268 | ||
269 | Example: For a TQM823L module type: | |
270 | ||
271 | cd u-boot | |
272 | make TQM823L_config | |
273 | ||
11ccc33f | 274 | For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well; |
c609719b WD |
275 | e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent |
276 | directory according to the instructions in cogent/README. | |
277 | ||
278 | ||
279 | Configuration Options: | |
280 | ---------------------- | |
281 | ||
282 | Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all | |
283 | such information is kept in a configuration file | |
284 | "include/configs/<board_name>.h". | |
285 | ||
286 | Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in | |
287 | "include/configs/TQM823L.h". | |
288 | ||
289 | ||
7f6c2cbc WD |
290 | Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux |
291 | kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to | |
292 | build a config tool - later. | |
293 | ||
294 | ||
c609719b WD |
295 | The following options need to be configured: |

2535d602 | 332 | |
cf946c6d LW |
333 | - Marvell Family Member |
334 | CONFIG_SYS_MVFS - define it if you want to enable | |
335 | multiple fs option at one time | |
336 | for marvell soc family | |
337 | ||
c609719b | 338 | - MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined) |

66ca92a5 WD |
343 | CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ - deprecated: CPU clock if |
344 | get_gclk_freq() cannot work | |
5da627a4 WD |
345 | e.g. if there is no 32KHz |
346 | reference PIT/RTC clock | |
66ca92a5 WD |
347 | CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK |
348 | or XTAL/EXTAL) | |

355 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 356 | CONFIG_SYS_MEASURE_CPUCLK |
75d1ea7f | 357 | |
ba56f625 WD |
358 | Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead |
359 | of relying on the correctness of the configured | |
360 | values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure | |
361 | the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note | |
362 | that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz | |
6d0f6bcf | 363 | RTC clock or CONFIG_SYS_8XX_XIN) |
75d1ea7f | 364 | |
506f3918 HS |
365 | CONFIG_SYS_DELAYED_ICACHE |
366 | ||
367 | Define this option if you want to enable the | |
368 | ICache only when Code runs from RAM. | |
369 | ||
66412c63 | 370 | - 85xx CPU Options: |
ffd06e02 YS |
371 | CONFIG_SYS_PPC64 |
372 | ||
373 | Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements | |
374 | the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR | |
375 | compliance, among other possible reasons. | |
376 | ||
66412c63 KG |
377 | CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV |
378 | ||
379 | Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the | |
380 | system clock. On most PQ3 devices this is 8, on newer QorIQ | |
381 | devices it can be 16 or 32. The ratio varies from SoC to Soc. | |
382 | ||
8f29084a KG |
383 | CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT |
384 | ||
385 | Defines the string to utilize when trying to match PCIe device | |
386 | tree nodes for the given platform. | |
387 | ||
afa6b551 PK |
388 | CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB |
389 | ||
390 | Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work | |
391 | around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger | |
392 | support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where | |
393 | breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this | |
394 | symbol should be set to the TLB1 entry to be used for this | |
395 | purpose. | |
396 | ||
33eee330 SW |
397 | CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 |
398 | ||
399 | Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set, | |
400 | then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and | |
401 | CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set. | |
402 | ||
403 | CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV | |
404 | CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional) | |
405 | ||
406 | Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR) | |
407 | for which the A004510 workaround should be applied. | |
408 | ||
409 | The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision | |
410 | of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus | |
411 | p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls | |

480 | CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD |
481 | ||
482 | Use this flag to build U-Boot using the Thumb instruction | |
483 | set for ARM architectures. Thumb instruction set provides | |
484 | better code density. For ARM architectures that support | |
485 | Thumb2 this flag will result in Thumb2 code generated by | |
486 | GCC. | |

5da627a4 | 488 | - Linux Kernel Interface: |
c609719b WD |
489 | CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ |
490 | ||
491 | U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz | |
492 | internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux | |
493 | kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the | |
494 | bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable | |
495 | "clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot | |
496 | converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the | |
497 | Linux kernel. | |
c609719b | 498 | When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of |
218ca724 | 499 | "clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the |
c609719b WD |
500 | default environment. |
501 | ||
5da627a4 WD |
502 | CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES [relevant for MIPS only] |
503 | ||
11ccc33f | 504 | When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions |
5da627a4 WD |
505 | expect it to be in bytes, others in MB. |
506 | Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes. | |
507 | ||
fec6d9ee | 508 | CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT |
f57f70aa WD |
509 | |
510 | New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be | |

511 | passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware |
512 | concepts). | |
513 | ||
514 | CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT | |
515 | * New libfdt-based support | |

535 | ||
11ccc33f | 536 | This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot |
0267768e MM |
537 | param header, the default value is zero if undefined. |
538 | ||
3887c3fb HS |
539 | CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP |
540 | ||
541 | U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. | |
542 | If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot | |
543 | removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, | |
544 | so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and | |
545 | crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where | |
546 | no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. | |
547 | ||
7eb29398 IG |
548 | CONFIG_MACH_TYPE [relevant for ARM only][mandatory] |
549 | ||
550 | This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one | |
551 | machine type and must be used to specify the machine type | |
552 | number as it appears in the ARM machine registry | |
553 | (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/). | |
554 | Only boards that have multiple machine types supported | |
555 | in a single configuration file and the machine type is | |
556 | runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting. | |
557 | ||

591 | ||
48d0192f | 592 | CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL |
6705d81e WD |
593 | |
594 | Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs. | |
595 | ||
596 | CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK | |
597 | ||
598 | If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to | |
599 | the clock speed of the UARTs. | |
600 | ||
601 | CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS | |
602 | ||
603 | If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board, | |
604 | define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported) | |
605 | port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h | |
606 | ||
910f1ae3 JR |
607 | CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_RLCR |
608 | ||
609 | Some vendor versions of PL011 serial ports (e.g. ST-Ericsson U8500) | |
610 | have separate receive and transmit line control registers. Set | |
611 | this variable to initialize the extra register. | |
612 | ||
613 | CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT | |
614 | ||
615 | On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage | |
616 | boot loader that has already initialized the UART. Define this | |
617 | variable to flush the UART at init time. | |
618 | ||
6705d81e | 619 | |
c609719b | 620 | - Console Interface: |
43d9616c WD |
621 | Depending on board, define exactly one serial port |
622 | (like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2, | |
623 | CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial | |
624 | console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE | |
c609719b WD |
625 | |
626 | Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial | |
627 | port routines must be defined elsewhere | |
628 | (i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...) | |
629 | ||
630 | CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE | |
631 | Enables console device for a color framebuffer. Needs following | |

669 | When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE_ANSI is defined, console will support |
670 | a limited number of ANSI escape sequences (cursor control, | |
671 | erase functions and limited graphics rendition control). | |
672 | ||
43d9616c WD |
673 | When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is |
674 | default i/o. Serial console can be forced with | |
675 | environment 'console=serial'. | |
c609719b | 676 | |
d4ca31c4 WD |
677 | When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console |
678 | messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with | |
679 | the "silent" environment variable. See | |
680 | doc/README.silent for more information. | |

c92fac91 HS |
688 | - Console Rx buffer length |
689 | With CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN it is possible to define | |
690 | the maximum receive buffer length for the SMC. | |
2b3f12c2 | 691 | This option is actual only for 82xx and 8xx possible. |
c92fac91 HS |
692 | If using CONFIG_SYS_SMC_RXBUFLEN also CONFIG_SYS_MAXIDLE |
693 | must be defined, to setup the maximum idle timeout for | |
694 | the SMC. | |
695 | ||
9558b48a | 696 | - Pre-Console Buffer: |
4cf2609b WD |
697 | Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART |
698 | initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. | |
699 | Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to | |
700 | buffer any console messages prior to the console being | |
701 | initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ | |
702 | bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is | |
703 | a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ | |
6feff899 | 704 | bytes are output before the console is initialised, the |
4cf2609b WD |
705 | earlier bytes are discarded. |
706 | ||
707 | 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if | |
708 | CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2 | |
9558b48a | 709 | |
046a37bd SR |
710 | - Safe printf() functions |
711 | Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of | |
712 | the printf() functions. These are defined in | |
713 | include/vsprintf.h and include snprintf(), vsnprintf() and | |
714 | so on. Code size increase is approximately 300-500 bytes. | |
715 | If this option is not given then these functions will | |
716 | silently discard their buffer size argument - this means | |
717 | you are not getting any overflow checking in this case. | |
718 | ||
c609719b WD |
719 | - Boot Delay: CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds |
720 | Delay before automatically booting the default image; | |
721 | set to -1 to disable autoboot. | |
93d7212f JH |
722 | set to -2 to autoboot with no delay and not check for abort |
723 | (even when CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK is defined). | |
c609719b WD |
724 | |
725 | See doc/README.autoboot for these options that | |
726 | work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required. | |
727 | CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME | |
728 | CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN | |
729 | CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED | |
730 | CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT | |

736 | CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY | |
737 | ||
738 | - Autoboot Command: | |
739 | CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND | |
740 | Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled; | |
741 | define a command string that is automatically executed | |
742 | when no character is read on the console interface | |
743 | within "Boot Delay" after reset. | |
744 | ||
745 | CONFIG_BOOTARGS | |
43d9616c WD |
746 | This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm |
747 | command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the | |
748 | environment value "bootargs". | |
c609719b WD |
749 | |
750 | CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT | |
43d9616c WD |
751 | The value of these goes into the environment as |
752 | "ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used | |
753 | as a convenience, when switching between booting from | |
11ccc33f | 754 | RAM and NFS. |
c609719b WD |
755 | |
756 | - Pre-Boot Commands: | |
757 | CONFIG_PREBOOT | |
758 | ||
759 | When this option is #defined, the existence of the | |
760 | environment variable "preboot" will be checked | |
761 | immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY | |
762 | countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp. | |
763 | entering interactive mode. | |
764 | ||
765 | This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is | |
766 | automatically generated or modified. For an example | |
767 | see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is | |
768 | modified when the user holds down a certain | |
769 | combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when | |
770 | booting the systems | |
771 | ||
772 | - Serial Download Echo Mode: | |
773 | CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO | |
774 | If defined to 1, all characters received during a | |
775 | serial download (using the "loads" command) are | |
776 | echoed back. This might be needed by some terminal | |
777 | emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take | |
778 | time on others. This setting #define's the initial | |
779 | value of the "loads_echo" environment variable. | |
780 | ||
602ad3b3 | 781 | - Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined) |
c609719b WD |
782 | CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE |

c609719b WD |
785 | |
786 | - Monitor Functions: | |
602ad3b3 JL |
787 | Monitor commands can be included or excluded |
788 | from the build by using the #include files | |
c6c621bd SW |
789 | <config_cmd_all.h> and #undef'ing unwanted |
790 | commands, or using <config_cmd_default.h> | |
602ad3b3 JL |
791 | and augmenting with additional #define's |
792 | for wanted commands. | |

890 | EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network | |
891 | support you can write: | |
892 | ||
602ad3b3 JL |
893 | #include "config_cmd_all.h" |
894 | #undef CONFIG_CMD_NET | |
c609719b | 895 | |
213bf8c8 GVB |
896 | Other Commands: |
897 | fdt (flattened device tree) command: CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT | |
c609719b WD |
898 | |
899 | Note: Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands | |
602ad3b3 | 900 | (configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know |
43d9616c WD |
901 | what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data |
902 | cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or | |
903 | 8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be | |
904 | uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other | |
905 | systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an | |
906 | initial stack and some data. | |
c609719b WD |
907 | |
908 | ||
909 | XXX - this list needs to get updated! | |
910 | ||
45ba8077 SG |
911 | - Device tree: |
912 | CONFIG_OF_CONTROL | |
913 | If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree | |
914 | to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically | |
915 | compiled #defines in the board file. This option is | |
916 | experimental and only available on a few boards. The device | |
917 | tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. | |
918 | ||
2c0f79e4 SG |
919 | U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can |
920 | be done using one of the two options below: | |
bbb0b128 SG |
921 | |
922 | CONFIG_OF_EMBED | |
923 | If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree | |
924 | binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the | |
925 | board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file | |
926 | is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through | |
927 | the global data structure as gd->blob. | |
45ba8077 | 928 | |
2c0f79e4 SG |
929 | CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE |
930 | If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree | |
931 | binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific | |
932 | code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: | |
933 | ||
934 | cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin | |
935 | ||
936 | and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called | |
937 | u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can | |
938 | still use the individual files if you need something more | |
939 | exotic. | |
940 | ||
c609719b WD |
941 | - Watchdog: |
942 | CONFIG_WATCHDOG | |
943 | If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog | |
6abe6fb6 DZ |
944 | support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC |
945 | specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 | |
946 | CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR | |
947 | register. When supported for a specific SoC is | |
948 | available, then no further board specific code should | |
949 | be needed to use it. | |
950 | ||
951 | CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG | |
952 | When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used | |
953 | SoC, then define this variable and provide board | |
954 | specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. | |
c609719b | 955 | |
c1551ea8 SR |
956 | - U-Boot Version: |
957 | CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE | |
958 | If this variable is defined, an environment variable | |
959 | named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot | |
960 | version as printed by the "version" command. | |
a1ea8e51 BT |
961 | Any change to this variable will be reverted at the |
962 | next reset. | |
c1551ea8 | 963 | |
c609719b WD |
964 | - Real-Time Clock: |
965 | ||
602ad3b3 | 966 | When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC |
c609719b WD |
967 | has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the |
968 | following options: | |
969 | ||
970 | CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx - use internal RTC of MPC8xx | |
971 | CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC | |
4e8b7544 | 972 | CONFIG_RTC_MC13XXX - use MC13783 or MC13892 RTC |
c609719b | 973 | CONFIG_RTC_MC146818 - use MC146818 RTC |
1cb8e980 | 974 | CONFIG_RTC_DS1307 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC |
c609719b | 975 | CONFIG_RTC_DS1337 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC |
7f70e853 | 976 | CONFIG_RTC_DS1338 - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC |
3bac3513 | 977 | CONFIG_RTC_DS164x - use Dallas DS164x RTC |
9536dfcc | 978 | CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208 - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC |
4c0d4c3b | 979 | CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900 - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC |
6d0f6bcf | 980 | CONFIG_SYS_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337 |
71d19f30 HS |
981 | CONFIG_SYS_RV3029_TCR - enable trickle charger on |
982 | RV3029 RTC. | |
c609719b | 983 | |
b37c7e5e WD |
984 | Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface |
985 | must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. | |
986 | ||
e92739d3 PT |
987 | - GPIO Support: |
988 | CONFIG_PCA953X - use NXP's PCA953X series I2C GPIO | |
989 | CONFIG_PCA953X_INFO - enable pca953x info command | |
990 | ||
5dec49ca CP |
991 | The CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH option specifies a list of |
992 | chip-ngpio pairs that tell the PCA953X driver the number of | |
993 | pins supported by a particular chip. | |
994 | ||
e92739d3 PT |
995 | Note that if the GPIO device uses I2C, then the I2C interface |
996 | must also be configured. See I2C Support, below. | |
997 | ||
c609719b WD |
998 | - Timestamp Support: |
999 | ||
43d9616c WD |
1000 | When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp |
1001 | (date and time) of an image is printed by image | |
1002 | commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is | |
602ad3b3 | 1003 | automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE . |
c609719b | 1004 | |
923c46f9 KP |
1005 | - Partition Labels (disklabels) Supported: |
1006 | Zero or more of the following: | |
1007 | CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION Apple's MacOS partition table. | |
1008 | CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION MS Dos partition table, traditional on the | |
1009 | Intel architecture, USB sticks, etc. | |
1010 | CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION ISO partition table, used on CDROM etc. | |
1011 | CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION GPT partition table, common when EFI is the | |
1012 | bootloader. Note 2TB partition limit; see | |
1013 | disk/part_efi.c | |
1014 | CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS Memory Technology Device partition table. | |
c609719b | 1015 | |
218ca724 WD |
1016 | If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or |
1017 | CONFIG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at | |
923c46f9 | 1018 | least one non-MTD partition type as well. |
c609719b WD |
1019 | |
1020 | - IDE Reset method: | |
4d13cbad WD |
1021 | CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several |
1022 | board configurations files but used nowhere! | |
c609719b | 1023 | |
4d13cbad WD |
1024 | CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will |
1025 | be performed by calling the function | |
1026 | ide_set_reset(int reset) | |
1027 | which has to be defined in a board specific file | |
c609719b WD |
1028 | |
1029 | - ATAPI Support: | |
1030 | CONFIG_ATAPI | |
1031 | ||
1032 | Set this to enable ATAPI support. | |
1033 | ||

c40b2956 WD |
1039 | Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only' |
1040 | support disks up to 2.1TB. | |
1041 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 1042 | CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA: |
c40b2956 WD |
1043 | When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses. |
1044 | Default is 32bit. | |
1045 | ||

1048 | SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define | |
1049 | CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it. | |
1050 | ||
6d0f6bcf JCPV |
1051 | CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN [8], CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID [7] and |
1052 | CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_DEVICE [CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_SCSI_ID * | |
1053 | CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN] can be adjusted to define the | |
c609719b WD |
1054 | maximum numbers of LUNs, SCSI ID's and target |
1055 | devices. | |

1221 | command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and | |
11ccc33f | 1222 | attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print |
16c8d5e7 WD |
1223 | it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty |
1224 | can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to | |
386eda02 | 1225 | appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a |
16c8d5e7 WD |
1226 | Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device. |
1227 | If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate | |
1228 | a Linux host by | |
1229 | # modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID | |
1230 | else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment | |
1231 | variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following | |
1232 | might be defined in YourBoardName.h | |
386eda02 | 1233 | |
16c8d5e7 WD |
1234 | CONFIG_USB_DEVICE |

1241 | CONFIG_USBD_HS |
1242 | Define this to enable the high speed support for usb | |
1243 | device and usbtty. If this feature is enabled, a routine | |
1244 | int is_usbd_high_speed(void) | |
1245 | also needs to be defined by the driver to dynamically poll | |
1246 | whether the enumeration has succeded at high speed or full | |
1247 | speed. | |
1248 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 1249 | CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV |
16c8d5e7 WD |
1250 | Define this if you want stdin, stdout &/or stderr to |
1251 | be set to usbtty. | |

16c8d5e7 | 1263 | define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h |
386eda02 | 1264 | or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h. If you don't define |
16c8d5e7 WD |
1265 | CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME, |
1266 | CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot | |
1267 | should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host. | |
1268 | ||

1288 | - ULPI Layer Support: |
1289 | The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via | |
1290 | the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY | |
1291 | via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and | |
1292 | the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based | |
1293 | viewport is supported. | |
1294 | To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and | |
1295 | CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. | |
6d365ea0 LS |
1296 | If your ULPI phy needs a different reference clock than the |
1297 | standard 24 MHz then you have to define CONFIG_ULPI_REF_CLK to | |
1298 | the appropriate value in Hz. | |

1325 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 1326 | CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART |
6705d81e WD |
1327 | Define this to create an own partition. You have to provide a |
1328 | function struct part_info* jffs2_part_info(int part_num) | |
1329 | ||
1330 | If you define only one JFFS2 partition you may also want to | |
6d0f6bcf | 1331 | #define CONFIG_SYS_JFFS_SINGLE_PART 1 |
6705d81e WD |
1332 | to disable the command chpart. This is the default when you |
1333 | have not defined a custom partition | |

1359 | GERMAN key layout (switch via environment 'keymap=de') support. | |
1360 | Export function i8042_kbd_init, i8042_tstc and i8042_getc | |
1361 | for cfb_console. Supports cursor blinking. | |
1362 | ||
1363 | - Video support: | |
1364 | CONFIG_VIDEO | |
1365 | ||
1366 | Define this to enable video support (for output to | |

1402 | ||
7d3053fb | 1403 | CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB |
04e5ae79 | 1404 | Enable the Freescale DIU video driver. Reference boards for |
7d3053fb TT |
1405 | SOCs that have a DIU should define this macro to enable DIU |
1406 | support, and should also define these other macros: | |
1407 | ||
1408 | CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR | |
1409 | CONFIG_VIDEO | |

1416 | ||
ba8e76bd TT |
1417 | The DIU driver will look for the 'video-mode' environment |
1418 | variable, and if defined, enable the DIU as a console during | |
1419 | boot. See the documentation file README.video for a | |
1420 | description of this variable. | |
7d3053fb | 1421 | |
058d59b0 SG |
1422 | CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA |
1423 | ||
1424 | Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you | |
1425 | are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer | |
1426 | driver. | |

1428 | ||
682011ff | 1429 | - Keyboard Support: |
8bde7f77 | 1430 | CONFIG_KEYBOARD |
682011ff | 1431 | |
8bde7f77 WD |
1432 | Define this to enable a custom keyboard support. |
1433 | This simply calls drv_keyboard_init() which must be | |
1434 | defined in your board-specific files. | |
1435 | The only board using this so far is RBC823. | |
a6c7ad2f | 1436 | |
c609719b WD |
1437 | - LCD Support: CONFIG_LCD |

1496 | information over I2C from an attached LCD display. | |
1497 | ||
45d7f525 | 1498 | |
7152b1d0 | 1499 | - Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN |
d791b1dc | 1500 | |
8bde7f77 WD |
1501 | If this option is set, the environment is checked for |
1502 | a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display | |
1503 | of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD | |
e94d2cd9 | 1504 | is suppressed and the BMP image at the address |
8bde7f77 WD |
1505 | specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The |
1506 | console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This | |
1507 | allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is | |
1508 | loaded very quickly after power-on. | |
d791b1dc | 1509 | |
1ca298ce MW |
1510 | CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN |
1511 | ||
1512 | If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned | |
1513 | on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the | |
1514 | position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as | |
1515 | number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it | |
1516 | is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also | |
1517 | specify 'm' for centering the image. | |
1518 | ||
1519 | Example: | |
1520 | setenv splashpos m,m | |
1521 | => image at center of screen | |
1522 | ||
1523 | setenv splashpos 30,20 | |
1524 | => image at x = 30 and y = 20 | |
1525 | ||
1526 | setenv splashpos -10,m | |
1527 | => vertically centered image | |
1528 | at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 | |
1529 | ||
98f4a3df SR |
1530 | - Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP |
1531 | ||
1532 | If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP | |
1533 | images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the | |
1534 | splashscreen support or the bmp command. | |
1535 | ||
d5011762 AG |
1536 | - Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8 |
1537 | ||
1538 | If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images | |
1539 | can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the | |
1540 | bmp command. | |
1541 | ||
f2b96dfb LW |
1542 | - Do compresssing for memory range: |
1543 | CONFIG_CMD_ZIP | |
1544 | ||
1545 | If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method | |
1546 | to compress the specified memory at its best effort. | |
1547 | ||
c29fdfc1 WD |
1548 | - Compression support: |
1549 | CONFIG_BZIP2 | |
1550 | ||
1551 | If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed | |
1552 | images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip | |
1553 | compressed images are supported. | |
1554 | ||
42d1f039 | 1555 | NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so |
6d0f6bcf | 1556 | the malloc area (as defined by CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN) should |
42d1f039 | 1557 | be at least 4MB. |
d791b1dc | 1558 | |
fc9c1727 LCM |
1559 | CONFIG_LZMA |
1560 | ||
1561 | If this option is set, support for lzma compressed | |
1562 | images is included. | |
1563 | ||
1564 | Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it | |
1565 | requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the | |
1566 | formula: | |
1567 | ||
1568 | (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) | |
1569 | ||
1570 | Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits | |
1571 | and Literal pos bits. | |
1572 | ||
1573 | This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, | |
1574 | for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a | |
1575 | total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is | |
1576 | a very small buffer. | |
1577 | ||
1578 | Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and | |
1579 | then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring | |
6d0f6bcf | 1580 | the appropriate CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value). |

1582 | - MII/PHY support: |
1583 | CONFIG_PHY_ADDR | |
1584 | ||
1585 | The address of PHY on MII bus. | |
1586 | ||
1587 | CONFIG_PHY_CLOCK_FREQ (ppc4xx) | |
1588 | ||
1589 | The clock frequency of the MII bus | |
1590 | ||
1591 | CONFIG_PHY_GIGE | |
1592 | ||
1593 | If this option is set, support for speed/duplex | |
11ccc33f | 1594 | detection of gigabit PHY is included. |
17ea1177 WD |
1595 | |
1596 | CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY | |
1597 | ||
1598 | Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after | |
1599 | reset before any MII register access is possible. | |
1600 | For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay | |
1601 | required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A) | |
1602 | ||
1603 | CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx) | |
1604 | ||
1605 | Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after | |
1606 | command issued before MII status register can be read | |

1614 | CONFIG_ETH5ADDR | |
c609719b | 1615 | |
11ccc33f MZ |
1616 | Define a default value for Ethernet address to use |
1617 | for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this | |
c609719b WD |
1618 | is not determined automatically. |
1619 | ||
1620 | - IP address: | |
1621 | CONFIG_IPADDR | |
1622 | ||
1623 | Define a default value for the IP address to use for | |
11ccc33f | 1624 | the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not |
c609719b | 1625 | determined through e.g. bootp. |
1ebcd654 | 1626 | (Environment variable "ipaddr") |
c609719b WD |
1627 | |
1628 | - Server IP address: | |
1629 | CONFIG_SERVERIP | |
1630 | ||
11ccc33f | 1631 | Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP |
c609719b | 1632 | server to contact when using the "tftboot" command. |
1ebcd654 | 1633 | (Environment variable "serverip") |
c609719b | 1634 | |
97cfe861 RG |
1635 | CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR |
1636 | ||
1637 | Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr' | |
1638 | for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option) | |
1639 | ||
1ebcd654 WD |
1640 | - Gateway IP address: |
1641 | CONFIG_GATEWAYIP | |
1642 | ||
1643 | Defines a default value for the IP address of the | |
1644 | default router where packets to other networks are | |
1645 | sent to. | |
1646 | (Environment variable "gatewayip") | |
1647 | ||
1648 | - Subnet mask: | |
1649 | CONFIG_NETMASK | |
1650 | ||
1651 | Defines a default value for the subnet mask (or | |
1652 | routing prefix) which is used to determine if an IP | |
1653 | address belongs to the local subnet or needs to be | |
1654 | forwarded through a router. | |
1655 | (Environment variable "netmask") | |
1656 | ||
53a5c424 DU |
1657 | - Multicast TFTP Mode: |
1658 | CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP | |
1659 | ||
1660 | Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per | |
1661 | rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp. Lets lots of targets | |
11ccc33f | 1662 | tftp down the same boot image concurrently. Note: the Ethernet |
53a5c424 DU |
1663 | driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a |
1664 | multicast group. | |
1665 | ||
c609719b WD |
1666 | - BOOTP Recovery Mode: |
1667 | CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY | |
1668 | ||
1669 | If you have many targets in a network that try to | |
1670 | boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all | |
1671 | systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same | |
1672 | moment (which would happen for instance at recovery | |
1673 | from a power failure, when all systems will try to | |
1674 | boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining | |
1675 | CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be | |
1676 | inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The | |
6c33c785 | 1677 | following delays are inserted then: |
c609719b WD |
1678 | |
1679 | 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec | |
1680 | 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec | |
1681 | 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec | |
1682 | 4th and following | |
1683 | BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec | |
1684 | ||
fe389a82 | 1685 | - DHCP Advanced Options: |
1fe80d79 JL |
1686 | You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining |
1687 | CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols: | |
1688 | ||
1689 | CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK | |
1690 | CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY | |
1691 | CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME | |
1692 | CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN | |
1693 | CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH | |
1694 | CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE | |
1695 | CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS | |
1696 | CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 | |
1697 | CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME | |
1698 | CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER | |
1699 | CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET | |
1700 | CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX | |
2c00e099 | 1701 | CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL |
fe389a82 | 1702 | |
5d110f0a WC |
1703 | CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip |
1704 | environment variable, not the BOOTP server. | |
fe389a82 | 1705 | |
2c00e099 JH |
1706 | CONFIG_BOOTP_MAY_FAIL - If the DHCP server is not found |
1707 | after the configured retry count, the call will fail | |
1708 | instead of starting over. This can be used to fail over | |
1709 | to Link-local IP address configuration if the DHCP server | |
1710 | is not available. | |
1711 | ||
fe389a82 SR |
1712 | CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS |
1713 | serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more | |
1714 | than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. | |
1715 | If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS | |
1716 | serverip will be stored in the additional environment | |
1717 | variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always | |
1718 | stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS | |
1fe80d79 | 1719 | is defined. |
fe389a82 SR |
1720 | |
1721 | CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable | |
1722 | to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they | |
1723 | need the hostname of the DHCP requester. | |
5d110f0a | 1724 | If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content |
1fe80d79 JL |
1725 | of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as |
1726 | option 12 to the DHCP server. | |
fe389a82 | 1727 | |
d9a2f416 AV |
1728 | CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY |
1729 | ||
1730 | A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between | |
1731 | receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request". | |
1732 | This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't | |
1733 | respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an | |
1734 | AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed | |
1735 | to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003 | |
1736 | DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at | |
1737 | least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope | |
1738 | that one of the retries will be successful but note that | |
1739 | the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than | |
1740 | this delay. | |
1741 | ||
d22c338e JH |
1742 | - Link-local IP address negotiation: |
1743 | Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network | |
1744 | for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. | |
1745 | This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed | |
1746 | to exist in all environments that the device must operate. | |
1747 | ||
1748 | See doc/README.link-local for more information. | |
1749 | ||
a3d991bd | 1750 | - CDP Options: |
6e592385 | 1751 | CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID |
a3d991bd WD |
1752 | |
1753 | The device id used in CDP trigger frames. | |
1754 | ||
1755 | CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX | |
1756 | ||
1757 | A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address | |
1758 | of the device. | |
1759 | ||
1760 | CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID | |
1761 | ||
1762 | A printf format string which contains the ascii name of | |
1763 | the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets | |
11ccc33f | 1764 | eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc. |
a3d991bd WD |
1765 | |
1766 | CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES | |
1767 | ||
1768 | A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities; | |
1769 | 0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards. | |
1770 | ||
1771 | CONFIG_CDP_VERSION | |
1772 | ||
1773 | An ascii string containing the version of the software. | |
1774 | ||
1775 | CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM | |
1776 | ||
1777 | An ascii string containing the name of the platform. | |
1778 | ||
1779 | CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER | |
1780 | ||
1781 | A 32bit integer sent on the trigger. | |
1782 | ||
1783 | CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION | |
1784 | ||
1785 | A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the | |
1786 | device in .1 of milliwatts. | |
1787 | ||
1788 | CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE | |
1789 | ||
1790 | A byte containing the id of the VLAN. | |
1791 | ||
c609719b WD |
1792 | - Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED |
1793 | ||
1794 | Several configurations allow to display the current | |
1795 | status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink | |
1796 | fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as | |
1797 | soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and | |
1798 | start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running | |
1799 | (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux | |
1800 | kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this | |
1801 | feature in U-Boot. | |
1802 | ||
1803 | - CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER | |
1804 | ||
1805 | Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support | |
1806 | on those systems that support this (optional) | |
1807 | feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. | |
1808 | ||
1809 | - I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C | |
1810 | ||
b37c7e5e | 1811 | These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of |
945af8d7 | 1812 | (but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will |
11ccc33f | 1813 | include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected CPU. |
c609719b | 1814 | |
945af8d7 | 1815 | This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot |
602ad3b3 | 1816 | command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in |
b37c7e5e WD |
1817 | CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime |
1818 | clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the | |
43d9616c | 1819 | command line interface. |
c609719b | 1820 | |
bb99ad6d | 1821 | CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. |
b37c7e5e | 1822 | |
945af8d7 | 1823 | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka |
b37c7e5e WD |
1824 | bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware |
1825 | support for I2C. | |
c609719b | 1826 | |
945af8d7 | 1827 | There are several other quantities that must also be |
b37c7e5e | 1828 | defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C. |
c609719b | 1829 | |
6d0f6bcf | 1830 | In both cases you will need to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SPEED |
945af8d7 | 1831 | to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus |
6d0f6bcf | 1832 | to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie |
11ccc33f | 1833 | the CPU's i2c node address). |
945af8d7 | 1834 | |
8d321b81 | 1835 | Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx |
a47a12be | 1836 | (arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) sets the CPU up as a master node |
8d321b81 PT |
1837 | and so its address should therefore be cleared to 0 (See, |
1838 | eg, MPC823e User's Manual p.16-473). So, set | |
1839 | CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0. | |
c609719b | 1840 | |
5da71efa EM |
1841 | CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX |
1842 | ||
1843 | When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer | |
1844 | chips might think that the current transfer is still | |
1845 | in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start | |
1846 | commands until the slave device responds. | |
1847 | ||
945af8d7 | 1848 | That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. |
c609719b | 1849 | |
b37c7e5e WD |
1850 | If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C) |
1851 | then the following macros need to be defined (examples are | |
1852 | from include/configs/lwmon.h): | |
c609719b WD |
1853 | |
1854 | I2C_INIT | |
1855 | ||
b37c7e5e | 1856 | (Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C |
43d9616c | 1857 | controller or configure ports. |
c609719b | 1858 | |
ba56f625 | 1859 | eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SCL) |
b37c7e5e | 1860 | |
c609719b WD |
1861 | I2C_PORT |
1862 | ||
43d9616c WD |
1863 | (Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code |
1864 | assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values | |
1865 | are 0..3 for ports A..D. | |
c609719b WD |
1866 | |
1867 | I2C_ACTIVE | |
1868 | ||
1869 | The code necessary to make the I2C data line active | |
1870 | (driven). If the data line is open collector, this | |
1871 | define can be null. | |
1872 | ||
b37c7e5e WD |
1873 | eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |= PB_SDA) |
1874 | ||
c609719b WD |
1875 | I2C_TRISTATE |
1876 | ||
1877 | The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated | |
1878 | (inactive). If the data line is open collector, this | |
1879 | define can be null. | |
1880 | ||
b37c7e5e WD |
1881 | eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA) |
1882 | ||
c609719b WD |
1883 | I2C_READ |
1884 | ||
1885 | Code that returns TRUE if the I2C data line is high, | |
1886 | FALSE if it is low. | |
1887 | ||
b37c7e5e WD |
1888 | eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0) |
1889 | ||
c609719b WD |
1890 | I2C_SDA(bit) |
1891 | ||
1892 | If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C data line high. If it | |
1893 | is FALSE, it clears it (low). | |
1894 | ||
b37c7e5e | 1895 | eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) \ |
2535d602 | 1896 | if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SDA; \ |
ba56f625 | 1897 | else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA |
b37c7e5e | 1898 | |
c609719b WD |
1899 | I2C_SCL(bit) |
1900 | ||
1901 | If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C clock line high. If it | |
1902 | is FALSE, it clears it (low). | |
1903 | ||
b37c7e5e | 1904 | eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) \ |
2535d602 | 1905 | if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |= PB_SCL; \ |
ba56f625 | 1906 | else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL |
b37c7e5e | 1907 | |
c609719b WD |
1908 | I2C_DELAY |
1909 | ||
1910 | This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this | |
1911 | controls the rate of data transfer. The data rate thus | |
b37c7e5e | 1912 | is 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4). Often defined to be something |
945af8d7 WD |
1913 | like: |
1914 | ||
b37c7e5e | 1915 | #define I2C_DELAY udelay(2) |
c609719b | 1916 | |
793b5726 MF |
1917 | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SCL / CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_SDA |
1918 | ||
1919 | If your arch supports the generic GPIO framework (asm/gpio.h), | |
1920 | then you may alternatively define the two GPIOs that are to be | |
1921 | used as SCL / SDA. Any of the previous I2C_xxx macros will | |
1922 | have GPIO-based defaults assigned to them as appropriate. | |
1923 | ||
1924 | You should define these to the GPIO value as given directly to | |
1925 | the generic GPIO functions. | |
1926 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 1927 | CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD |
47cd00fa | 1928 | |
8bde7f77 WD |
1929 | When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer |
1930 | chips might think that the current transfer is still | |
1931 | in progress. On some boards it is possible to access | |
1932 | the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the | |
1933 | processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin | |
1934 | connected to the bus. If this option is defined a | |
1935 | custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c | |
1936 | is run early in the boot sequence. | |
47cd00fa | 1937 | |
26a33504 RR |
1938 | CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT |
1939 | ||
1940 | An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is | |
1941 | defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in | |
1942 | boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() | |
1943 | is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus | |
1944 | using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c | |
1945 | controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of | |
1946 | i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus | |
1947 | controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). | |
1948 | ||
17ea1177 WD |
1949 | CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) |
1950 | ||
1951 | This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags | |
1952 | in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment | |
1953 | variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast) | |
1954 | ||
bb99ad6d BW |
1955 | CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
1956 | ||
1957 | This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which | |
c0f40859 WD |
1958 | must have a controller. At any point in time, only one bus is |
1959 | active. To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command. | |
bb99ad6d BW |
1960 | Note that bus numbering is zero-based. |
1961 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 1962 | CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES |
bb99ad6d BW |
1963 | |
1964 | This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped | |
c0f40859 | 1965 | when the 'i2c probe' command is issued. If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS |
0f89c54b PT |
1966 | is set, specify a list of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, specify |
1967 | a 1D array of device addresses | |
bb99ad6d BW |
1968 | |
1969 | e.g. | |
1970 | #undef CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS | |
c0f40859 | 1971 | #define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_NOPROBES {0x50,0x68} |

6d0f6bcf | 1980 | CONFIG_SYS_SPD_BUS_NUM |
be5e6181 TT |
1981 | |
1982 | If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD. | |
1983 | If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0. | |
1984 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 1985 | CONFIG_SYS_RTC_BUS_NUM |
0dc018ec SR |
1986 | |
1987 | If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC. | |
1988 | If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0. | |
1989 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 1990 | CONFIG_SYS_DTT_BUS_NUM |
0dc018ec SR |
1991 | |
1992 | If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT. | |
1993 | If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0. | |
1994 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 1995 | CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DTT_ADDR: |
9ebbb54f VG |
1996 | |
1997 | If defined, specifies the I2C address of the DTT device. | |
1998 | If not defined, then U-Boot uses predefined value for | |
1999 | specified DTT device. | |
2000 | ||
be5e6181 TT |
2001 | CONFIG_FSL_I2C |
2002 | ||
2003 | Define this option if you want to use Freescale's I2C driver in | |
7817cb20 | 2004 | drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c. |
be5e6181 | 2005 | |
67b23a32 HS |
2006 | CONFIG_I2C_MUX |
2007 | ||
2008 | Define this option if you have I2C devices reached over 1 .. n | |
2009 | I2C Muxes like the pca9544a. This option addes a new I2C | |
2010 | Command "i2c bus [muxtype:muxaddr:muxchannel]" which adds a | |
2011 | new I2C Bus to the existing I2C Busses. If you select the | |
2012 | new Bus with "i2c dev", u-bbot sends first the commandos for | |
2013 | the muxes to activate this new "bus". | |
2014 | ||
2015 | CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS must be also defined, to use this | |
2016 | feature! | |
2017 | ||
2018 | Example: | |
2019 | Adding a new I2C Bus reached over 2 pca9544a muxes | |
2020 | The First mux with address 70 and channel 6 | |
2021 | The Second mux with address 71 and channel 4 | |
2022 | ||
2023 | => i2c bus pca9544a:70:6:pca9544a:71:4 | |
2024 | ||
2025 | Use the "i2c bus" command without parameter, to get a list | |
2026 | of I2C Busses with muxes: | |
2027 | ||
2028 | => i2c bus | |
2029 | Busses reached over muxes: | |
2030 | Bus ID: 2 | |
2031 | reached over Mux(es): | |
2032 | pca9544a@70 ch: 4 | |
2033 | Bus ID: 3 | |
2034 | reached over Mux(es): | |
2035 | pca9544a@70 ch: 6 | |
2036 | pca9544a@71 ch: 4 | |
2037 | => | |
2038 | ||
2039 | If you now switch to the new I2C Bus 3 with "i2c dev 3" | |
f9a78b8d MJ |
2040 | u-boot first sends the command to the mux@70 to enable |
2041 | channel 6, and then the command to the mux@71 to enable | |
67b23a32 HS |
2042 | the channel 4. |
2043 | ||
2044 | After that, you can use the "normal" i2c commands as | |
f9a78b8d | 2045 | usual to communicate with your I2C devices behind |
67b23a32 HS |
2046 | the 2 muxes. |
2047 | ||
2048 | This option is actually implemented for the bitbanging | |
2049 | algorithm in common/soft_i2c.c and for the Hardware I2C | |
2050 | Bus on the MPC8260. But it should be not so difficult | |
2051 | to add this option to other architectures. | |
2052 | ||
2ac6985a AD |
2053 | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START |
2054 | ||
2055 | defining this will force the i2c_read() function in | |
2056 | the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start | |
2057 | between writing the address pointer and reading the | |
2058 | data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour | |
2059 | of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C | |
2060 | devices can use either method, but some require one or | |
2061 | the other. | |

2063 | - SPI Support: CONFIG_SPI |
2064 | ||
2065 | Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with | |
2066 | SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and | |
2067 | D/As on the SACSng board) | |
2068 | ||
6639562e YS |
2069 | CONFIG_SH_SPI |
2070 | ||

2073 | ||
c609719b WD |
2074 | CONFIG_SPI_X |

2078 | ||
2079 | CONFIG_SOFT_SPI | |
2080 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2081 | Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than |
2082 | using hardware support. This is a general purpose | |
2083 | driver that only requires three general I/O port pins | |
2084 | (two outputs, one input) to function. If this is | |
2085 | defined, the board configuration must define several | |
2086 | SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For | |
2087 | an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h. | |
c609719b | 2088 | |
04a9e118 BW |
2089 | CONFIG_HARD_SPI |
2090 | ||
2091 | Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads | |
2092 | and writes. As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration | |
2093 | must define a list of chip-select function pointers. | |
c0f40859 | 2094 | Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors. For an |
04a9e118 BW |
2095 | example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h. |
2096 | ||
38254f45 GL |

c609719b | 2119 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2120 | CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK |
c609719b | 2121 | |
8bde7f77 | 2122 | Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration. |
c609719b | 2123 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2124 | CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY |
c609719b | 2125 | |
43d9616c WD |
2126 | Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy |
2127 | status by the configuration function. This option | |
2128 | will require a board or device specific function to | |
2129 | be written. | |
c609719b WD |
2130 | |
2131 | CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY | |
2132 | ||
2133 | If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA | |
2134 | configuration driver. | |
2135 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2136 | CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC |
c609719b WD |
2137 | Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration |
2138 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2139 | CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR |
c609719b | 2140 | |
43d9616c WD |
2141 | Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile |
2142 | loading. For example, abort during Virtex II | |
2143 | configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which | |
2144 | indicated a CRC error). | |
c609719b | 2145 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2146 | CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_INIT |
c609719b | 2147 | |
43d9616c WD |
2148 | Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert |
2149 | after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II | |
2150 | FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500 | |
11ccc33f | 2151 | ms. |
c609719b | 2152 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2153 | CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY |

11ccc33f | 2156 | Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms. |
c609719b | 2157 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2158 | CONFIG_SYS_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG |
c609719b | 2159 | |
43d9616c | 2160 | Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is |
11ccc33f | 2161 | 200 ms. |
c609719b WD |
2162 | |
2163 | - Configuration Management: | |
2164 | CONFIG_IDENT_STRING | |
2165 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2166 | If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot |
2167 | version information (U_BOOT_VERSION) | |
c609719b WD |
2168 | |
2169 | - Vendor Parameter Protection: | |
2170 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2171 | U-Boot considers the values of the environment |
2172 | variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and | |
7152b1d0 | 2173 | "ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that |
43d9616c WD |
2174 | are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and |
2175 | protects these variables from casual modification by | |
2176 | the user. Once set, these variables are read-only, | |
2177 | and write or delete attempts are rejected. You can | |
11ccc33f | 2178 | change this behaviour: |
c609719b WD |
2179 | |
2180 | If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config | |
2181 | file, the write protection for vendor parameters is | |
47cd00fa | 2182 | completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete |
c609719b WD |
2183 | these parameters. |
2184 | ||
2185 | Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR | |
2186 | _and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE, a default | |
11ccc33f | 2187 | Ethernet address is installed in the environment, |
c609719b WD |
2188 | which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The |
2189 | serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains | |
2190 | read-only.] | |
2191 | ||
2598090b JH |
2192 | The same can be accomplished in a more flexible way |
2193 | for any variable by configuring the type of access | |
2194 | to allow for those variables in the ".flags" variable | |
2195 | or define CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC. | |
2196 | ||
c609719b WD |
2197 | - Protected RAM: |
2198 | CONFIG_PRAM | |
2199 | ||
2200 | Define this variable to enable the reservation of | |
2201 | "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten | |
2202 | by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of | |
2203 | kB you want to reserve for pRAM. You can overwrite | |
2204 | this default value by defining an environment | |
2205 | variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to | |
2206 | reserve. Note that the board info structure will | |
2207 | still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is | |
2208 | reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will | |
2209 | automatically be defined to hold the amount of | |
2210 | remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot | |
2211 | argument to Linux, for instance like that: | |
2212 | ||
fe126d8b | 2213 | setenv bootargs ... mem=\${mem} |
c609719b WD |
2214 | saveenv |
2215 | ||
2216 | This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory, | |
2217 | either, which results in a memory region that will | |
2218 | not be affected by reboots. | |
2219 | ||
2220 | *WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic | |
2221 | detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that | |
2222 | this memory test is non-destructive. So far, the | |
2223 | following board configurations are known to be | |
2224 | "pRAM-clean": | |
2225 | ||
1b0757ec WD |
2226 | IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL, |
2227 | HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, | |
544d97e9 | 2228 | FLAGADM, TQM8260 |
c609719b | 2229 | |
40fef049 GB |
2230 | - Access to physical memory region (> 4GB) |
2231 | Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not | |
2232 | normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures | |
2233 | support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit | |
2234 | machines using physical address extension or similar. | |
2235 | Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which | |
2236 | currently only supports clearing the memory. | |
2237 | ||
c609719b WD |
2238 | - Error Recovery: |
2239 | CONFIG_PANIC_HANG | |
2240 | ||
2241 | Define this variable to stop the system in case of a | |
2242 | fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually. | |
2243 | This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded | |
11ccc33f | 2244 | system where you want the system to reboot |
c609719b WD |
2245 | automatically as fast as possible, but it may be |
2246 | useful during development since you can try to debug | |
2247 | the conditions that lead to the situation. | |
2248 | ||
2249 | CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT | |
2250 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2251 | This variable defines the number of retries for |
2252 | network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP | |
2253 | before giving up the operation. If not defined, a | |
2254 | default value of 5 is used. | |
c609719b | 2255 | |
40cb90ee GL |
2256 | CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT |
2257 | ||
2258 | Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds. | |
2259 | ||
48a3e999 TK |
2260 | CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT |
2261 | ||
2262 | Timeout in milliseconds used in NFS protocol. | |
2263 | If you encounter "ERROR: Cannot umount" in nfs command, | |
2264 | try longer timeout such as | |
2265 | #define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL | |
2266 | ||
c609719b | 2267 | - Command Interpreter: |
8078f1a5 | 2268 | CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE |
04a85b3b WD |
2269 | |
2270 | Enable auto completion of commands using TAB. | |
2271 | ||
a9398e01 WD |
2272 | Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet |
2273 | for the "hush" shell. | |
8078f1a5 WD |
2274 | |
2275 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2276 | CONFIG_SYS_HUSH_PARSER |
c609719b WD |
2277 | |
2278 | Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from | |
2279 | Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling | |
2280 | powerful command line syntax like | |
2281 | if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||' | |
2282 | constructs ("shell scripts"). | |
2283 | ||
2284 | If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour | |
2285 | with a somewhat smaller memory footprint. | |
2286 | ||
2287 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2288 | CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 |
c609719b WD |
2289 | |
2290 | This defines the secondary prompt string, which is | |
2291 | printed when the command interpreter needs more input | |
2292 | to complete a command. Usually "> ". | |
2293 | ||
2294 | Note: | |
2295 | ||
8bde7f77 WD |
2296 | In the current implementation, the local variables |
2297 | space and global environment variables space are | |
2298 | separated. Local variables are those you define by | |
2299 | simply typing `name=value'. To access a local | |
2300 | variable later on, you have write `$name' or | |
2301 | `${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable | |
2302 | directly type `$name' at the command prompt. | |
c609719b | 2303 | |
43d9616c WD |
2304 | Global environment variables are those you use |
2305 | setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored | |
2306 | in such a variable, you need to use the run command, | |
2307 | and you must not use the '$' sign to access them. | |
c609719b WD |
2308 | |
2309 | To store commands and special characters in a | |
2310 | variable, please use double quotation marks | |
2311 | surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead | |
2312 | of the backslashes before semicolons and special | |
2313 | symbols. | |
2314 | ||
aa0c71ac WD |
2315 | - Commandline Editing and History: |

c609719b WD |
2322 | CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS |
2323 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2324 | Define this to contain any number of null terminated |
2325 | strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of | |
7152b1d0 | 2326 | the default environment compiled into the boot image. |
2262cfee | 2327 | |
43d9616c WD |
2328 | For example, place something like this in your |
2329 | board's config file: | |
c609719b WD |
2330 | |
2331 | #define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \ | |
2332 | "myvar1=value1\0" \ | |
2333 | "myvar2=value2\0" | |
2334 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2335 | Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the |
2336 | internal format how the environment is stored by the | |
2337 | U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported | |
2338 | interface! Although it is unlikely that this format | |
7152b1d0 | 2339 | will change soon, there is no guarantee either. |
c609719b WD |
2340 | You better know what you are doing here. |
2341 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2342 | Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is |
2343 | discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset | |
74de7aef | 2344 | the environment like the "source" command or the |
43d9616c | 2345 | boot command first. |

5e724ca2 SW |
2347 | CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_CONFIG |
2348 | ||
2349 | Define this in order to add variables describing the | |
2350 | U-Boot build configuration to the default environment. | |
2351 | These will be named arch, cpu, board, vendor, and soc. | |
2352 | ||
2353 | Enabling this option will cause the following to be defined: | |
2354 | ||
2355 | - CONFIG_SYS_ARCH | |
2356 | - CONFIG_SYS_CPU | |
2357 | - CONFIG_SYS_BOARD | |

2360 | ||
7e27f89f TR |
2361 | CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG |
2362 | ||
2363 | Define this in order to add variables describing certain | |

2377 | Defining this option enables SPI flash commands | |
2378 | 'sf probe/read/write/erase/update'. | |
2379 | ||
2380 | Usage requires an initial 'probe' to define the serial | |
2381 | flash parameters, followed by read/write/erase/update | |
2382 | commands. | |
2383 | ||
2384 | The following defaults may be provided by the platform | |
2385 | to handle the common case when only a single serial | |
2386 | flash is present on the system. | |
2387 | ||
2388 | CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_BUS Bus identifier | |
2389 | CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_CS Chip-select | |
2390 | CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_MODE (see include/spi.h) | |
2391 | CONFIG_SF_DEFAULT_SPEED in Hz | |

3f85ce27 WD |
2393 | - SystemACE Support: |
2394 | CONFIG_SYSTEMACE | |
2395 | ||
2396 | Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE | |
2397 | chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address | |
11ccc33f | 2398 | of the chip must also be defined in the |
6d0f6bcf | 2399 | CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example: |
3f85ce27 WD |
2400 | |
2401 | #define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE | |
6d0f6bcf | 2402 | #define CONFIG_SYS_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000 |
3f85ce27 WD |
2403 | |
2404 | When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type | |
2405 | becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls. | |
2406 | ||
ecb0ccd9 WD |
2407 | - TFTP Fixed UDP Port: |
2408 | CONFIG_TFTP_PORT | |
2409 | ||
28cb9375 | 2410 | If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp |
ecb0ccd9 | 2411 | is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value. |
28cb9375 | 2412 | If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port |
ecb0ccd9 WD |
2413 | number generator is used. |
2414 | ||
28cb9375 WD |
2415 | Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply |
2416 | the TFTP UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't | |
2417 | defined, the normal port 69 is used. | |
2418 | ||
2419 | The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to | |
ecb0ccd9 WD |
2420 | blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured |
2421 | target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of | |
2422 | "punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing | |
2423 | the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally. | |
2424 | A better solution is to properly configure the firewall, | |
2425 | but sometimes that is not allowed. | |
2426 | ||
bf36c5d5 SG |
2427 | - Hashing support: |
2428 | CONFIG_CMD_HASH | |
2429 | ||
2430 | This enables a generic 'hash' command which can produce | |
2431 | hashes / digests from a few algorithms (e.g. SHA1, SHA256). | |
2432 | ||
2433 | CONFIG_HASH_VERIFY | |
2434 | ||
2435 | Enable the hash verify command (hash -v). This adds to code | |
2436 | size a little. | |
2437 | ||
2438 | CONFIG_SHA1 - support SHA1 hashing | |
2439 | CONFIG_SHA256 - support SHA256 hashing | |
2440 | ||
2441 | Note: There is also a sha1sum command, which should perhaps | |
2442 | be deprecated in favour of 'hash sha1'. | |
2443 | ||
a8c7c708 | 2444 | - Show boot progress: |
c609719b WD |
2445 | CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS |
2446 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2447 | Defining this option allows to add some board- |
2448 | specific code (calling a user-provided function | |
2449 | "show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show | |
2450 | the system's boot progress on some display (for | |
2451 | example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment, | |
2452 | the following checkpoints are implemented: | |
c609719b | 2453 | |
3a608ca0 SG |
2454 | - Detailed boot stage timing |
2455 | CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE | |
2456 | Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage | |
2457 | of the boot process. | |
2458 | ||
2459 | CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT | |
2460 | This is the number of available user bootstage records. | |
2461 | Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...) | |
2462 | a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed | |
2463 | the limit, recording will stop. | |
2464 | ||
2465 | CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT | |
2466 | Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this: | |
2467 | ||
2468 | Timer summary in microseconds: | |
2469 | Mark Elapsed Stage | |
2470 | 0 0 reset | |
2471 | 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start | |
2472 | 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9 | |
2473 | 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done | |
2474 | 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start | |
2475 | 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop | |
2476 | 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start | |
2477 | 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel | |
2478 | ||
2eba38cf SG |
2479 | CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE |
2480 | Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report | |
2481 | and un/stashing of bootstage data. | |
2482 | ||
94fd1316 SG |
2483 | CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT |
2484 | Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage' | |
2485 | node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child | |
2486 | has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the | |
2487 | mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the | |
2488 | accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds. | |
2489 | For example: | |
2490 | ||
2491 | bootstage { | |
2492 | 154 { | |
2493 | name = "board_init_f"; | |
2494 | mark = <3575678>; | |
2495 | }; | |
2496 | 170 { | |
2497 | name = "lcd"; | |
2498 | accum = <33482>; | |
2499 | }; | |
2500 | }; | |
2501 | ||
2502 | Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree. | |

c609719b WD |
2844 | Modem Support: |
2845 | -------------- | |
2846 | ||
566e5cf4 | 2847 | [so far only for SMDK2400 boards] |
c609719b | 2848 | |
11ccc33f | 2849 | - Modem support enable: |
c609719b WD |
2850 | CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT |
2851 | ||
2852 | - RTS/CTS Flow control enable: | |
2853 | CONFIG_HWFLOW | |
2854 | ||
2855 | - Modem debug support: | |
2856 | CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG | |
2857 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2858 | Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg()) |
2859 | for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000. | |
c609719b | 2860 | |
a8c7c708 WD |
2861 | - Interrupt support (PPC): |
2862 | ||
d4ca31c4 WD |
2863 | There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt() |
2864 | for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu() | |
11ccc33f | 2865 | for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu() |
d4ca31c4 | 2866 | should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If |
11ccc33f | 2867 | CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt |
d4ca31c4 | 2868 | (ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero. |
11ccc33f | 2869 | timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU |
d4ca31c4 WD |
2870 | specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led |
2871 | / other_activity_monitor it works automatically from | |
2872 | general timer_interrupt(). | |
a8c7c708 | 2873 | |
c609719b WD |
2874 | - General: |
2875 | ||
43d9616c WD |
2876 | In the target system modem support is enabled when a |
2877 | specific key (key combination) is pressed during | |
2878 | power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally | |
11ccc33f | 2879 | (autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from |
43d9616c WD |
2880 | board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy |
2881 | function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem | |
2882 | initialization. | |
c609719b | 2883 | |
43d9616c WD |
2884 | If there are no modem init strings in the |
2885 | environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the | |
2886 | previous output (banner, info printfs) will be | |
11ccc33f | 2887 | suppressed, though. |

2891 | Board initialization settings: |
2892 | ------------------------------ | |
2893 | ||
2894 | During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions | |
2895 | to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup | |
2896 | before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the | |
2897 | following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is | |
2898 | architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c | |
2899 | typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). | |
2900 | ||
2901 | - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() | |
2902 | - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() | |
2903 | - CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() | |
2904 | - CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() | |
c609719b | 2905 | |
c609719b WD |
2906 | Configuration Settings: |
2907 | ----------------------- | |
2908 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2909 | - CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included; |
c609719b WD |
2910 | undefine this when you're short of memory. |
2911 | ||
2fb2604d PT |
2912 | - CONFIG_SYS_HELP_CMD_WIDTH: Defined when you want to override the default |
2913 | width of the commands listed in the 'help' command output. | |
2914 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2915 | - CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT: This is what U-Boot prints on the console to |
c609719b WD |
2916 | prompt for user input. |
2917 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2918 | - CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE: Buffer size for input from the Console |
c609719b | 2919 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2920 | - CONFIG_SYS_PBSIZE: Buffer size for Console output |
c609719b | 2921 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2922 | - CONFIG_SYS_MAXARGS: max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands |
c609719b | 2923 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2924 | - CONFIG_SYS_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to |
c609719b WD |
2925 | the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is |
2926 | booted | |
2927 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2928 | - CONFIG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE: |
c609719b WD |
2929 | List of legal baudrate settings for this board. |
2930 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2931 | - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET |
8bde7f77 | 2932 | Suppress display of console information at boot. |
c609719b | 2933 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2934 | - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV |
8bde7f77 WD |
2935 | If the board specific function |
2936 | extern int overwrite_console (void); | |
2937 | returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the | |
c609719b WD |
2938 | serial port, else the settings in the environment are used. |
2939 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2940 | - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE |
8bde7f77 | 2941 | Enable the call to overwrite_console(). |
c609719b | 2942 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2943 | - CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE |
c609719b WD |
2944 | Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings. |
2945 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2946 | - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END: |
c609719b WD |
2947 | Begin and End addresses of the area used by the |
2948 | simple memory test. | |
2949 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2950 | - CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST: |
8bde7f77 | 2951 | Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test. |
c609719b | 2952 | |
6d0f6bcf | 2953 | - CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_SCRATCH: |
5f535fe1 WD |
2954 | Scratch address used by the alternate memory test |
2955 | You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable | |
2956 | ||
6d0f6bcf JCPV |
2957 | - CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only): |
2958 | If CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, | |
14f73ca6 | 2959 | this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top |
11ccc33f | 2960 | (end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By |
14f73ca6 SR |
2961 | fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed |
2962 | the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either. | |
2963 | This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux | |
5e12e75d | 2964 | board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that |
14f73ca6 | 2965 | recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup |
5e12e75d | 2966 | will have to get fixed in Linux additionally. |
14f73ca6 SR |
2967 | |
2968 | This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx | |
2969 | CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't | |
2970 | be touched. | |
2971 | ||
2972 | WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of | |
2973 | the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case, | |
2974 | then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a | |
2975 | non page size aligned address and this could cause major | |
2976 | problems. | |
2977 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2978 | - CONFIG_SYS_TFTP_LOADADDR: |
c609719b WD |
2979 | Default load address for network file downloads |
2980 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2981 | - CONFIG_SYS_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE: |
c609719b WD |
2982 | Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download |
2983 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2984 | - CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE: |
c609719b WD |
2985 | Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here. |
2986 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2987 | - CONFIG_SYS_MBIO_BASE: |
c609719b WD |
2988 | Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a |
2989 | Cogent motherboard) | |
2990 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2991 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE: |
c609719b WD |
2992 | Physical start address of Flash memory. |
2993 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 2994 | - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE: |
c609719b WD |
2995 | Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by |
2996 | make config files to be same as the text base address | |
14d0a02a | 2997 | (CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as |
6d0f6bcf | 2998 | CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash. |
c609719b | 2999 | |
6d0f6bcf | 3000 | - CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_LEN: |
8bde7f77 WD |
3001 | Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to |
3002 | determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is | |
3003 | embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate | |
3004 | flash sector. | |
c609719b | 3005 | |
6d0f6bcf | 3006 | - CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN: |
c609719b WD |
3007 | Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use. |
3008 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3009 | - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN: |
15940c9a SR |
3010 | Normally compressed uImages are limited to an |
3011 | uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough, | |
6d0f6bcf | 3012 | you can define CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file |
15940c9a SR |
3013 | to adjust this setting to your needs. |
3014 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3015 | - CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ: |
c609719b WD |
3016 | Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of |
3017 | the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by | |
7d721e34 BS |
3018 | the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if |
3019 | used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low" | |
3020 | enviroment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case | |
3021 | all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low" | |
c0f40859 | 3022 | and "bootm_low" + CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. The environment |
c3624e6e GL |
3023 | variable "bootm_mapsize" will override the value of |
3024 | CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ. If CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is undefined, | |
3025 | then the value in "bootm_size" will be used instead. | |
c609719b | 3026 | |
fca43cc8 JR |
3027 | - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH: |
3028 | Enable initrd_high functionality. If defined then the | |
3029 | initrd_high feature is enabled and the bootm ramdisk subcommand | |
3030 | is enabled. | |
3031 | ||
3032 | - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE: | |
3033 | Enables allocating and saving kernel cmdline in space between | |
3034 | "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. | |
3035 | ||
3036 | - CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_KBD: | |
3037 | Enables allocating and saving a kernel copy of the bd_info in | |
3038 | space between "bootm_low" and "bootm_low" + BOOTMAPSZ. | |
3039 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3040 | - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS: |
c609719b WD |
3041 | Max number of Flash memory banks |
3042 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3043 | - CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT: |
c609719b WD |
3044 | Max number of sectors on a Flash chip |
3045 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3046 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT: |
c609719b WD |
3047 | Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms) |
3048 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3049 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT: |
c609719b WD |
3050 | Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms) |
3051 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3052 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT |
8564acf9 WD |
3053 | Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms) |
3054 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3055 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT |
8564acf9 WD |
3056 | Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms) |
3057 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3058 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_PROTECTION |
8564acf9 WD |
3059 | If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used |
3060 | instead of U-Boot software protection. | |
3061 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3062 | - CONFIG_SYS_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP: |
c609719b WD |
3063 | |
3064 | Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory; | |
3065 | without this option such a download has to be | |
3066 | performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2) | |
3067 | copy from RAM to flash. | |
3068 | ||
3069 | The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since | |
3070 | you can check if the download worked before you erase | |
11ccc33f MZ |
3071 | the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is |
3072 | too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the | |
c609719b WD |
3073 | downloaded image) this option may be very useful. |
3074 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3075 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI: |
43d9616c | 3076 | Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the |
5653fc33 WD |
3077 | common flash structure for storing flash geometry. |
3078 | ||
00b1883a | 3079 | - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER |
5653fc33 WD |
3080 | This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver |
3081 | in the drivers directory | |
c609719b | 3082 | |
91809ed5 PZ |
3083 | - CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_MTD |
3084 | This option enables the building of the cfi_mtd driver | |
3085 | in the drivers directory. The driver exports CFI flash | |
3086 | to the MTD layer. | |
3087 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3088 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE |
96ef831f GL |
3089 | Use buffered writes to flash. |
3090 | ||
3091 | - CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N | |
3092 | s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered | |
3093 | write commands. | |
3094 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3095 | - CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_QUIET_TEST |
5568e613 SR |
3096 | If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't |
3097 | print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This | |
3098 | is useful, if some of the configured banks are only | |
3099 | optionally available. | |
3100 | ||
9a042e9c JVB |
3101 | - CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS |
3102 | If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown | |
3103 | digits and dots. Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80 | |
3104 | column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays. | |
3105 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3106 | - CONFIG_SYS_RX_ETH_BUFFER: |
11ccc33f MZ |
3107 | Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers. On some |
3108 | Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value | |
53cf9435 SR |
3109 | to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all |
3110 | buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface | |
11ccc33f | 3111 | on high Ethernet traffic. |
53cf9435 SR |
3112 | Defaults to 4 if not defined. |
3113 | ||
ea882baf WD |
3114 | - CONFIG_ENV_MAX_ENTRIES |
3115 | ||
071bc923 WD |
3116 | Maximum number of entries in the hash table that is used |
3117 | internally to store the environment settings. The default | |
3118 | setting is supposed to be generous and should work in most | |
3119 | cases. This setting can be used to tune behaviour; see | |
3120 | lib/hashtable.c for details. | |
ea882baf | 3121 | |
2598090b JH |
3122 | - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT |
3123 | - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC | |
3124 | Enable validation of the values given to enviroment variables when | |
3125 | calling env set. Variables can be restricted to only decimal, | |
3126 | hexadecimal, or boolean. If CONFIG_CMD_NET is also defined, | |
3127 | the variables can also be restricted to IP address or MAC address. | |
3128 | ||
3129 | The format of the list is: | |
3130 | type_attribute = [s|d|x|b|i|m] | |
267541f7 JH |
3131 | access_atribute = [a|r|o|c] |
3132 | attributes = type_attribute[access_atribute] | |
2598090b JH |
3133 | entry = variable_name[:attributes] |
3134 | list = entry[,list] | |
3135 | ||
3136 | The type attributes are: | |
3137 | s - String (default) | |
3138 | d - Decimal | |
3139 | x - Hexadecimal | |
3140 | b - Boolean ([1yYtT|0nNfF]) | |
3141 | i - IP address | |
3142 | m - MAC address | |
3143 | ||
267541f7 JH |
3144 | The access attributes are: |
3145 | a - Any (default) | |
3146 | r - Read-only | |
3147 | o - Write-once | |
3148 | c - Change-default | |
3149 | ||
2598090b JH |
3150 | - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_DEFAULT |
3151 | Define this to a list (string) to define the ".flags" | |
3152 | envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. | |
3153 | ||
3154 | - CONFIG_ENV_FLAGS_LIST_STATIC | |
3155 | Define this to a list (string) to define validation that | |
3156 | should be done if an entry is not found in the ".flags" | |
3157 | environment variable. To override a setting in the static | |
3158 | list, simply add an entry for the same variable name to the | |
3159 | ".flags" variable. | |
3160 | ||
267541f7 JH |
3161 | - CONFIG_ENV_ACCESS_IGNORE_FORCE |
3162 | If defined, don't allow the -f switch to env set override variable | |
3163 | access flags. | |
3164 | ||
c609719b WD |
3165 | The following definitions that deal with the placement and management |
3166 | of environment data (variable area); in general, we support the | |
3167 | following configurations: | |
3168 | ||
c3eb3fe4 MF |
3169 | - CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC: |
3170 | ||
3171 | Builds up envcrc with the target environment so that external utils | |
3172 | may easily extract it and embed it in final U-Boot images. | |
3173 | ||
5a1aceb0 | 3174 | - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH: |
c609719b WD |
3175 | |
3176 | Define this if the environment is in flash memory. | |
3177 | ||
3178 | a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is | |
3179 | "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This | |
3180 | happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot | |
3181 | sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller | |
3182 | sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a | |
3183 | layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In | |
3184 | such a case you would place the environment in one of the | |
3185 | 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With | |
3186 | "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the | |
3187 | environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap | |
3188 | between U-Boot and the environment. | |
3189 | ||
0e8d1586 | 3190 | - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
c609719b WD |
3191 | |
3192 | Offset of environment data (variable area) to the | |
3193 | beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot | |
3194 | type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset | |
3195 | for this sector is given here. | |
3196 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3197 | CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE. |
c609719b | 3198 | |
0e8d1586 | 3199 | - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
c609719b WD |
3200 | |
3201 | This is just another way to specify the start address of | |
3202 | the flash sector containing the environment (instead of | |
0e8d1586 | 3203 | CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET). |
c609719b | 3204 | |
0e8d1586 | 3205 | - CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: |
c609719b WD |
3206 | |
3207 | Size of the sector containing the environment. | |
3208 | ||
3209 | ||
3210 | b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. | |
3211 | In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for | |
3212 | the environment. | |
3213 | ||
0e8d1586 | 3214 | - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: |
c609719b | 3215 | |
5a1aceb0 | 3216 | If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH |
0e8d1586 | 3217 | and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part |
c609719b WD |
3218 | of this flash sector for the environment. This saves |
3219 | memory for the RAM copy of the environment. | |
3220 | ||
3221 | It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this | |
3222 | when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, | |
3223 | since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used | |
3224 | for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is | |
3225 | STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view: | |
3226 | updating the environment in flash makes it always | |
3227 | necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes | |
3228 | wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in | |
3229 | RAM, your target system will be dead. | |
3230 | ||
0e8d1586 JCPV |
3231 | - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND |
3232 | CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND | |
c609719b | 3233 | |
43d9616c | 3234 | These settings describe a second storage area used to hold |
11ccc33f | 3235 | a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is |
3e38691e | 3236 | a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during |
43d9616c | 3237 | a "saveenv" operation. |
c609719b WD |
3238 | |
3239 | BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the | |
3240 | source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds* | |
3241 | accordingly! | |
3242 | ||
3243 | ||
9314cee6 | 3244 | - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM: |
c609719b WD |
3245 | |
3246 | Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device | |
3247 | (NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the | |
3248 | environment. | |
3249 | ||
0e8d1586 JCPV |
3250 | - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: |
3251 | - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: | |
c609719b | 3252 | |
11ccc33f | 3253 | These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you |
c609719b WD |
3254 | want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory |
3255 | can just be read and written to, without any special | |
3256 | provision. | |
3257 | ||
3258 | BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early | |
3259 | in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the | |
11ccc33f | 3260 | console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or |
c609719b WD |
3261 | U-Boot will hang. |
3262 | ||
3263 | Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the | |
3264 | environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to | |
3265 | keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv" | |
3266 | to save the current settings. | |
3267 | ||
3268 | ||
bb1f8b4f | 3269 | - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM: |
c609719b WD |
3270 | |
3271 | Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access | |
3272 | device and a driver for it. | |
3273 | ||
0e8d1586 JCPV |
3274 | - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
3275 | - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: | |
c609719b WD |
3276 | |
3277 | These two #defines specify the offset and size of the | |
3278 | environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM. | |
3279 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3280 | - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR: |
c609719b WD |
3281 | If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device. |
3282 | The default address is zero. | |
3283 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3284 | - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS: |
c609719b WD |
3285 | If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a |
3286 | single page in the EEPROM device. A 64 byte page, for example | |
3287 | would require six bits. | |
3288 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3289 | - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS: |
c609719b | 3290 | If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between |
ba56f625 | 3291 | page writes. The default is zero milliseconds. |
c609719b | 3292 | |
6d0f6bcf | 3293 | - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN: |
c609719b WD |
3294 | The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address. Note |
3295 | that this is NOT the chip address length! | |
3296 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3297 | - CONFIG_SYS_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW: |
5cf91d6b WD |
3298 | EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones |
3299 | like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of | |
3300 | address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit | |
3301 | slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256 | |
3302 | byte chips. | |
3303 | ||
3304 | Note that we consider the length of the address field to | |
3305 | still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden | |
3306 | in the chip address. | |
3307 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3308 | - CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE: |
c609719b WD |
3309 | The size in bytes of the EEPROM device. |
3310 | ||
548738b4 HS |
3311 | - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C |
3312 | define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your | |
3313 | EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus. | |
3314 | ||
3315 | - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS | |
3316 | if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over | |
3317 | I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this | |
3318 | EEPROM. For example: | |
3319 | ||
a9046b9e | 3320 | #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS "pca9547:70:d\0" |
548738b4 HS |
3321 | |
3322 | EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over | |
3323 | a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3. | |
c609719b | 3324 | |
057c849c | 3325 | - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH: |
5779d8d9 | 3326 | |
d4ca31c4 | 3327 | Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you |
5779d8d9 WD |
3328 | want to use for the environment. |
3329 | ||
0e8d1586 JCPV |
3330 | - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
3331 | - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: | |
3332 | - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: | |
5779d8d9 WD |
3333 | |
3334 | These three #defines specify the offset and size of the | |
3335 | environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed | |
3336 | at the specified address. | |
3337 | ||
0a85a9e7 LG |
3338 | - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_REMOTE: |
3339 | ||
3340 | Define this if you have a remote memory space which you | |
3341 | want to use for the local device's environment. | |
3342 | ||
3343 | - CONFIG_ENV_ADDR: | |
3344 | - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: | |
3345 | ||
3346 | These two #defines specify the address and size of the | |
3347 | environment area within the remote memory space. The | |
3348 | local device can get the environment from remote memory | |
fc54c7fa | 3349 | space by SRIO or PCIE links. |
0a85a9e7 LG |
3350 | |
3351 | BE CAREFUL! For some special cases, the local device can not use | |
3352 | "saveenv" command. For example, the local device will get the | |
fc54c7fa LG |
3353 | environment stored in a remote NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE link, |
3354 | but it can not erase, write this NOR flash by SRIO or PCIE interface. | |
0a85a9e7 | 3355 | |
51bfee19 | 3356 | - CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND: |
13a5695b WD |
3357 | |
3358 | Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use | |
3359 | for the environment. | |
3360 | ||
0e8d1586 JCPV |
3361 | - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET: |
3362 | - CONFIG_ENV_SIZE: | |
13a5695b WD |
3363 | |
3364 | These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment | |
fdd813de SW |
3365 | area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be |
3366 | aligned to an erase block boundary. | |
5779d8d9 | 3367 | |
fdd813de | 3368 | - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional): |
e443c944 | 3369 | |
0e8d1586 | 3370 | This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE |
fdd813de SW |
3371 | size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so |
3372 | that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure | |
c0f40859 | 3373 | during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_RENDUND must be |
fdd813de SW |
3374 | aligned to an erase block boundary. |
3375 | ||
3376 | - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional): | |
3377 | ||
3378 | Specifies the length of the region in which the environment | |
3379 | can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's | |
3380 | block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than | |
3381 | are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within | |
3382 | the range to be avoided. | |
3383 | ||
3384 | - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional): | |
3385 | ||
3386 | Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the | |
3387 | environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The | |
3388 | "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset. | |
3389 | Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when | |
3390 | using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB. | |
e443c944 | 3391 | |
b74ab737 GL |
3392 | - CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST |
3393 | ||
3394 | Defines address in RAM to which the nand_spl code should copy the | |
3395 | environment. If redundant environment is used, it will be copied to | |
3396 | CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST + CONFIG_ENV_SIZE. | |
3397 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3398 | - CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET |
c609719b WD |
3399 | |
3400 | Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The | |
3401 | area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment | |
3402 | is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte | |
3403 | scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization | |
3404 | calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems | |
3405 | to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the | |
3406 | start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer. | |
3407 | ||
e881cb56 | 3408 | Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor |
c609719b | 3409 | has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been |
cdb74977 | 3410 | created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_f() |
c609719b WD |
3411 | until then to read environment variables. |
3412 | ||
85ec0bcc WD |
3413 | The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor |
3414 | is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working | |
3415 | with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is | |
3416 | necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the | |
3417 | "baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't | |
3418 | have any device yet where we could complain.] | |
c609719b WD |
3419 | |
3420 | Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if | |
3421 | the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you | |
85ec0bcc | 3422 | use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment. |
c609719b | 3423 | |
6d0f6bcf | 3424 | - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN: |
42d1f039 | 3425 | Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED. |
fc3e2165 | 3426 | |
6d0f6bcf | 3427 | Note: If this option is active, then CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR |
fc3e2165 WD |
3428 | also needs to be defined. |
3429 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3430 | - CONFIG_SYS_FAULT_MII_ADDR: |
42d1f039 | 3431 | MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state. |
c609719b | 3432 | |
f5675aa5 RM |
3433 | - CONFIG_NS16550_MIN_FUNCTIONS: |
3434 | Define this if you desire to only have use of the NS16550_init | |
3435 | and NS16550_putc functions for the serial driver located at | |
3436 | drivers/serial/ns16550.c. This option is useful for saving | |
3437 | space for already greatly restricted images, including but not | |
3438 | limited to NAND_SPL configurations. | |
3439 | ||
c609719b | 3440 | Low Level (hardware related) configuration options: |
dc7c9a1a | 3441 | --------------------------------------------------- |
c609719b | 3442 | |
6d0f6bcf | 3443 | - CONFIG_SYS_CACHELINE_SIZE: |
c609719b WD |
3444 | Cache Line Size of the CPU. |
3445 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3446 | - CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR: |
c609719b | 3447 | Default address of the IMMR after system reset. |
2535d602 | 3448 | |
42d1f039 WD |
3449 | Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU, |
3450 | and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of | |
3451 | the IMMR register after a reset. | |
c609719b | 3452 | |
e46fedfe TT |
3453 | - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT: |
3454 | Default (power-on reset) physical address of CCSR on Freescale | |
3455 | PowerPC SOCs. | |
3456 | ||
3457 | - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR: | |
3458 | Virtual address of CCSR. On a 32-bit build, this is typically | |
3459 | the same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. | |
3460 | ||
3461 | CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_IMMR must also be set to this value, | |
3462 | for cross-platform code that uses that macro instead. | |
3463 | ||
3464 | - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS: | |
3465 | Physical address of CCSR. CCSR can be relocated to a new | |
3466 | physical address, if desired. In this case, this macro should | |
c0f40859 | 3467 | be set to that address. Otherwise, it should be set to the |
e46fedfe TT |
3468 | same value as CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_DEFAULT. For example, CCSR |
3469 | is typically relocated on 36-bit builds. It is recommended | |
3470 | that this macro be defined via the _HIGH and _LOW macros: | |
3471 | ||
3472 | #define CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS ((CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH | |
3473 | * 1ull) << 32 | CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW) | |
3474 | ||
3475 | - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_HIGH: | |
4cf2609b WD |
3476 | Bits 33-36 of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This value is typically |
3477 | either 0 (32-bit build) or 0xF (36-bit build). This macro is | |
e46fedfe TT |
3478 | used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or |
3479 | integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). | |
3480 | ||
3481 | - CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS_LOW: | |
3482 | Lower 32-bits of CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS. This macro is | |
3483 | used in assembly code, so it must not contain typecasts or | |
3484 | integer size suffixes (e.g. "ULL"). | |

3516 | - CONFIG_IDE_AHB: |
3517 | Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI | |
3518 | interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface. | |
3519 | When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to | |
3520 | IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional | |
3521 | registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller | |

c609719b | 3527 | |
6d0f6bcf | 3528 | - CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR: |
c609719b | 3529 | |
7152b1d0 | 3530 | Start address of memory area that can be used for |
c609719b WD |
3531 | initial data and stack; please note that this must be |
3532 | writable memory that is working WITHOUT special | |
3533 | initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which | |
3534 | will become available only after programming the | |
3535 | memory controller and running certain initialization | |
3536 | sequences. | |
3537 | ||
3538 | U-Boot uses the following memory types: | |
3539 | - MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU) | |
3540 | - MPC824X: data cache | |
3541 | - PPC4xx: data cache | |
3542 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 3543 | - CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET: |
c609719b WD |
3544 | |
3545 | Offset of the initial data structure in the memory | |
6d0f6bcf JCPV |
3546 | area defined by CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR. Usually |
3547 | CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial | |
c609719b | 3548 | data is located at the end of the available space |
553f0982 | 3549 | (sometimes written as (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - |
6d0f6bcf JCPV |
3550 | CONFIG_SYS_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just |
3551 | below that area (growing from (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + | |
3552 | CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward. | |
c609719b WD |
3553 | |
3554 | Note: | |
3555 | On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data | |
3556 | cache for initial memory) the address chosen for | |
6d0f6bcf | 3557 | CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must |
c609719b WD |
3558 | point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between |
3559 | the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space. | |

3772 | Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: |
3773 | ----------------------------------- | |
3774 | ||
3775 | The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the | |
3776 | loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. | |
3777 | This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros | |
3778 | are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address | |
3779 | within that device. | |
3780 | ||
3781 | - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR | |
3782 | The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The | |
3783 | meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro | |
3784 | is also specified. | |
3785 | ||
3786 | - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH | |
3787 | The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format | |
3788 | has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it | |
3789 | might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some | |
3790 | local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. | |
3791 | ||
3792 | - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR | |
3793 | Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as | |
3794 | normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the | |
3795 | virtual address in NOR flash. | |
3796 | ||
3797 | - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND | |
3798 | Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. | |
3799 | CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. | |
3800 | ||
3801 | - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC | |
3802 | Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC | |
3803 | device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. | |
3804 | ||
3805 | - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH | |
3806 | Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI | |
3807 | device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. | |
3808 | ||
292dc6c5 LG |
3809 | - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE |
3810 | Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in the remote (master) | |
3811 | memory space. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is a virtual address which | |
fc54c7fa LG |
3812 | can be mapped from slave TLB->slave LAW->slave SRIO or PCIE outbound |
3813 | window->master inbound window->master LAW->the ucode address in | |
3814 | master's memory space. | |

3816 | Building the Software: |
3817 | ====================== | |
3818 | ||
218ca724 WD |
3819 | Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments |
3820 | and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support | |
3821 | all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all | |
3822 | (potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we | |
3823 | recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK) | |
3824 | which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot. | |
c609719b | 3825 | |
218ca724 WD |
3826 | If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you |
3827 | have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, | |
3828 | you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. | |
3829 | Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are | |
3830 | necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter: | |
c609719b | 3831 | |
218ca724 WD |
3832 | $ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- |
3833 | $ export CROSS_COMPILE | |

3835 | Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in |
3836 | the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain | |
3837 | (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW | |
3838 | toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: | |
3839 | ||
3840 | $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools | |
3841 | ||
3842 | Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can | |
3843 | be executed on computers running Windows. | |

3845 | U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the |
3846 | sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This | |
c609719b WD |
3847 | is done by typing: |
3848 | ||
3849 | make NAME_config | |
3850 | ||
218ca724 | 3851 | where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu- |
4d675ae6 | 3852 | rations; see boards.cfg for supported names. |
db01a2ea | 3853 | |
2729af9d WD |
3854 | Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if |
3855 | additional information is available from the board vendor; for | |
3856 | instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard) | |
3857 | or with LCD support. You can select such additional "features" | |
11ccc33f | 3858 | when choosing the configuration, i. e. |
2729af9d WD |
3859 | |
3860 | make TQM823L_config | |
3861 | - will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support | |
3862 | ||
3863 | make TQM823L_LCD_config | |
3864 | - will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD | |
3865 | ||
3866 | etc. | |
3867 | ||
3868 | ||
3869 | Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot | |
3870 | images ready for download to / installation on your system: | |
3871 | ||
3872 | - "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image | |
3873 | - "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format | |
3874 | - "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format | |
3875 | ||

3876 | By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved |
3877 | in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change | |
3878 | this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory: | |
3879 | ||
3880 | 1. Add O= to the make command line invocations: | |
3881 | ||
3882 | make O=/tmp/build distclean | |
3883 | make O=/tmp/build NAME_config | |
3884 | make O=/tmp/build all | |
3885 | ||
3886 | 2. Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location: | |
3887 | ||
3888 | export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build | |
3889 | make distclean | |
3890 | make NAME_config | |
3891 | make all | |
3892 | ||
3893 | Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment | |
3894 | variable. | |
3895 | ||
2729af9d WD |
3896 | |
3897 | Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so | |
3898 | for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of | |
3899 | native "make". | |
3900 | ||
3901 | ||
3902 | If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need | |
3903 | to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these | |
3904 | steps: | |
3905 | ||
3906 | 1. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel | |
4d675ae6 MJ |
3907 | "boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples. |
3908 | Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order. | |
2729af9d WD |
3909 | 2. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any |
3910 | files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least | |
3911 | the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds". | |
3912 | 3. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for | |
3913 | your board | |
3914 | 3. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new | |
3915 | directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. | |
3916 | 4. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name. | |
3917 | 5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file | |
3918 | to be installed on your target system. | |
3919 | 6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. | |
3920 | [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] | |
3921 | ||
3922 | ||
3923 | Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: | |
3924 | ============================================================== | |
3925 | ||
218ca724 WD |
3926 | If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board |
3927 | or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to | |
2729af9d WD |
3928 | provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes |
3929 | the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest | |
218ca724 | 3930 | official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources. |
2729af9d | 3931 | |
218ca724 WD |
3932 | But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- |
3933 | cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of | |
2729af9d WD |
3934 | the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, |
3935 | just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot | |
218ca724 WD |
3936 | for ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can |
3937 | select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE' | |
3938 | environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools | |
3939 | you can type | |
2729af9d WD |
3940 | |
3941 | CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL | |
3942 | ||
3943 | or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type | |
3944 | ||
3945 | CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL | |
3946 | ||
218ca724 WD |
3947 | When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build |
3948 | U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by | |
3949 | setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target | |
3950 | built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and | |
3951 | <target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default | |
3952 | location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment | |
3953 | variable. For example: | |
baf31249 MB |
3954 | |
3955 | export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build | |
3956 | export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log | |
3957 | CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL | |
3958 | ||
218ca724 WD |
3959 | With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build, |
3960 | log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean | |
3961 | during the whole build process. | |

4021 | For now: just type "help <command>". | |
4022 | ||
4023 | ||
4024 | Environment Variables: | |
4025 | ====================== | |
4026 | ||
4027 | U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which | |
4028 | can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. | |
c609719b | 4029 | |
2729af9d WD |
4030 | Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using |
4031 | "printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv" | |
4032 | without a value can be used to delete a variable from the | |
4033 | environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are | |
4034 | working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the | |
4035 | environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided. | |
c609719b | 4036 | |
c96f86ee WD |
4037 | Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables. |
4038 | ||
4039 | List of environment variables (most likely not complete): | |
c609719b | 4040 | |
2729af9d | 4041 | baudrate - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE |
c609719b | 4042 | |
2729af9d | 4043 | bootdelay - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY |
c609719b | 4044 | |
2729af9d | 4045 | bootcmd - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND |
4a6fd34b | 4046 | |
2729af9d | 4047 | bootargs - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image |
c609719b | 4048 | |
2729af9d | 4049 | bootfile - Name of the image to load with TFTP |
c609719b | 4050 | |
7d721e34 BS |
4051 | bootm_low - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm |
4052 | command can be restricted. This variable is given as | |
4053 | a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed | |
4054 | for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_size" | |
4055 | environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is | |
4056 | also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux | |
c3624e6e GL |
4057 | kernel -- see the description of CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ and |
4058 | bootm_mapsize. | |
4059 | ||
c0f40859 | 4060 | bootm_mapsize - Size of the initial memory mapping for the Linux kernel. |
c3624e6e GL |
4061 | This variable is given as a hexadecimal number and it |
4062 | defines the size of the memory region starting at base | |
4063 | address bootm_low that is accessible by the Linux kernel | |
4064 | during early boot. If unset, CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is used | |
4065 | as the default value if it is defined, and bootm_size is | |
4066 | used otherwise. | |
7d721e34 BS |
4067 | |
4068 | bootm_size - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm | |
4069 | command can be restricted. This variable is given as | |
4070 | a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region | |
4071 | allowed for use by the bootm command. See also "bootm_low" | |
4072 | environment variable. | |
4073 | ||
4bae9090 BS |
4074 | updatefile - Location of the software update file on a TFTP server, used |
4075 | by the automatic software update feature. Please refer to | |
4076 | documentation in doc/README.update for more details. | |
4077 | ||
2729af9d WD |
4078 | autoload - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'), |
4079 | "bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the | |
4080 | configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to | |
4081 | load any image using TFTP | |
c609719b | 4082 | |
2729af9d WD |
4083 | autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp", |
4084 | "rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will | |
4085 | be automatically started (by internally calling | |
4086 | "bootm") | |
38b99261 | 4087 | |
2729af9d WD |
4088 | If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the |
4089 | "bootm" command will be copied to the load address | |
4090 | (and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started. | |
4091 | This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary | |
4092 | data. | |
c609719b | 4093 | |
a28afca5 DL |
4094 | fdt_high - if set this restricts the maximum address that the |
4095 | flattened device tree will be copied into upon boot. | |
fa34f6b2 SG |
4096 | For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory |
4097 | at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel | |
4098 | only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you | |
4099 | may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the | |
4100 | device tree blob be copied to the maximum address | |
4101 | of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can | |
4102 | access it during the boot procedure. | |
4103 | ||
a28afca5 DL |
4104 | If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then |
4105 | the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this | |
4106 | to work it must reside in writable memory, have | |
4107 | sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to | |
4108 | add the information it needs into it, and the memory | |
4109 | must be accessible by the kernel. | |
4110 | ||
eea63e05 SG |
4111 | fdtcontroladdr- if set this is the address of the control flattened |
4112 | device tree used by U-Boot when CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is | |
4113 | defined. | |
4114 | ||
17ea1177 WD |
4115 | i2cfast - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only) |
4116 | if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast | |
4117 | mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in | |
4118 | initialization code. So, for changes to be effective | |
4119 | it must be saved and board must be reset. | |
4120 | ||
2729af9d WD |
4121 | initrd_high - restrict positioning of initrd images: |
4122 | If this variable is not set, initrd images will be | |
4123 | copied to the highest possible address in RAM; this | |
4124 | is usually what you want since it allows for | |
4125 | maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to | |
4126 | make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the | |
6d0f6bcf | 4127 | CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment |
2729af9d WD |
4128 | variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0". |
4129 | Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper | |
4130 | address to use (U-Boot will still check that it | |
4131 | does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data). | |
c609719b | 4132 | |
2729af9d WD |
4133 | For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB |
4134 | RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux, | |
4135 | you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of | |
4136 | the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make | |
4137 | sure that the initrd image is placed in the first | |
4138 | 12 MB as well - this can be done with | |
c609719b | 4139 | |
2729af9d | 4140 | setenv initrd_high 00c00000 |
c609719b | 4141 | |
2729af9d WD |
4142 | If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an |
4143 | indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal | |
4144 | for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash | |
4145 | memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the | |
4146 | ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the | |
4147 | boot time on your system, but requires that this | |
4148 | feature is supported by your Linux kernel. | |
c609719b | 4149 | |
2729af9d | 4150 | ipaddr - IP address; needed for tftpboot command |
c609719b | 4151 | |
2729af9d WD |
4152 | loadaddr - Default load address for commands like "bootp", |
4153 | "rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot" | |
c609719b | 4154 | |
2729af9d | 4155 | loads_echo - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO |
a3d991bd | 4156 | |
2729af9d | 4157 | serverip - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command |
a3d991bd | 4158 | |
2729af9d | 4159 | bootretry - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME |
a3d991bd | 4160 | |
2729af9d | 4161 | bootdelaykey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR |
a3d991bd | 4162 | |
2729af9d | 4163 | bootstopkey - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR |
c609719b | 4164 | |
e2a53458 | 4165 | ethprime - controls which interface is used first. |
c609719b | 4166 | |
e2a53458 MF |
4167 | ethact - controls which interface is currently active. |
4168 | For example you can do the following | |
c609719b | 4169 | |
48690d80 HS |
4170 | => setenv ethact FEC |
4171 | => ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC | |
4172 | => setenv ethact SCC | |
4173 | => ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC | |
c609719b | 4174 | |
e1692577 MF |
4175 | ethrotate - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all |
4176 | available network interfaces. | |
4177 | It just stays at the currently selected interface. | |
4178 | ||
c96f86ee | 4179 | netretry - When set to "no" each network operation will |
2729af9d WD |
4180 | either succeed or fail without retrying. |
4181 | When set to "once" the network operation will | |
4182 | fail when all the available network interfaces | |
4183 | are tried once without success. | |
4184 | Useful on scripts which control the retry operation | |
4185 | themselves. | |
c609719b | 4186 | |
b4e2f89d | 4187 | npe_ucode - set load address for the NPE microcode |
a1cf027a | 4188 | |
28cb9375 | 4189 | tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's |
ecb0ccd9 WD |
4190 | UDP source port. |
4191 | ||
28cb9375 WD |
4192 | tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP |
4193 | destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69. | |
4194 | ||
c96f86ee WD |
4195 | tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set, |
4196 | we use the TFTP server's default block size | |
4197 | ||
4198 | tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli- | |
4199 | seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines | |
4200 | when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to | |
4201 | be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds. | |
4202 | Lowering this value may make downloads succeed | |
4203 | faster in networks with high packet loss rates or | |
4204 | with unreliable TFTP servers. | |
4205 | ||
4206 | vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over | |
11ccc33f | 4207 | Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q |
2729af9d | 4208 | VLAN tagged frames. |
c609719b | 4209 | |
dc0b7b0e JH |
4210 | The following image location variables contain the location of images |
4211 | used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is | |
4212 | not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment | |
4213 | variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP | |
4214 | server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be | |
4215 | loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR | |

4218 | *Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some | |
4219 | boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some | |
4220 | boards use these variables for other purposes. | |

4229 | The following environment variables may be used and automatically |
4230 | updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"), | |
4231 | depending the information provided by your boot server: | |
c609719b | 4232 | |
2729af9d WD |
4233 | bootfile - see above |
4234 | dnsip - IP address of your Domain Name Server | |

4236 | gatewayip - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use | |
4237 | hostname - Target hostname | |
4238 | ipaddr - see above | |
4239 | netmask - Subnet Mask | |
4240 | rootpath - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server | |
4241 | serverip - see above | |
c1551ea8 | 4242 | |
c1551ea8 | 4243 | |
2729af9d | 4244 | There are two special Environment Variables: |
c1551ea8 | 4245 | |
2729af9d WD |
4246 | serial# - contains hardware identification information such |
4247 | as type string and/or serial number | |
4248 | ethaddr - Ethernet address | |
c609719b | 4249 | |
2729af9d WD |
4250 | These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of |
4251 | the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables | |
4252 | once they have been set once. | |
c609719b | 4253 | |
f07771cc | 4254 | |
2729af9d | 4255 | Further special Environment Variables: |
f07771cc | 4256 | |
2729af9d WD |
4257 | ver - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed |
4258 | with the "version" command. This variable is | |
4259 | readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE). | |
f07771cc | 4260 | |
f07771cc | 4261 | |
2729af9d WD |
4262 | Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take |
4263 | only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-). | |

4266 | Callback functions for environment variables: |
4267 | --------------------------------------------- | |
4268 | ||
4269 | For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change | |
4270 | when their values are changed. This functionailty allows functions to | |
4271 | be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or | |
4272 | deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side | |
4273 | effect to happen or for the change to be rejected. | |
4274 | ||
4275 | The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the | |
4276 | U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code. | |
4277 | ||
4278 | These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The | |
4279 | static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC | |
4280 | in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of | |
4281 | associations. The list must be in the following format: | |
4282 | ||
4283 | entry = variable_name[:callback_name] | |
4284 | list = entry[,list] | |
4285 | ||
4286 | If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted. | |
4287 | Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list. | |
4288 | ||
4289 | Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable | |
4290 | with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will | |
4291 | override any association in the static list. You can define | |
4292 | CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the | |
4293 | ".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. | |

4296 | Command Line Parsing: |
4297 | ===================== | |
f07771cc | 4298 | |
2729af9d WD |
4299 | There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot: |
4300 | the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell: | |
c609719b | 4301 | |
2729af9d WD |
4302 | Old, simple command line parser: |
4303 | -------------------------------- | |
c609719b | 4304 | |
2729af9d WD |
4305 | - supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands) |
4306 | - several commands on one line, separated by ';' | |
fe126d8b | 4307 | - variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax |
2729af9d WD |
4308 | - special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '\', |
4309 | for example: | |
fe126d8b | 4310 | setenv bootcmd bootm \${address} |
2729af9d WD |
4311 | - You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example: |
4312 | setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off' | |
c609719b | 4313 | |
2729af9d WD |
4314 | Hush shell: |
4315 | ----------- | |
c609719b | 4316 | |
2729af9d WD |
4317 | - similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like |
4318 | if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done, | |
4319 | until...do...done, ... | |
4320 | - supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv | |
4321 | commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax | |
4322 | "name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run" | |
4323 | command | |
4324 | ||
4325 | General rules: | |
4326 | -------------- | |
c609719b | 4327 | |
2729af9d WD |
4328 | (1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run" |
4329 | command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and | |
4330 | one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be | |
4331 | executed anyway. | |
c609719b | 4332 | |
2729af9d | 4333 | (2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e. |
11ccc33f | 4334 | calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing |
2729af9d WD |
4335 | command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining |
4336 | variables are not executed. | |
c609719b | 4337 | |

4338 | Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces: |
4339 | ======================================= | |
c609719b | 4340 | |
11ccc33f | 4341 | Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports |
2729af9d WD |
4342 | such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a |
4343 | "working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows: | |
c609719b | 4344 | |
2729af9d WD |
4345 | Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding |
4346 | MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0), | |
4347 | "eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ... | |
c609719b | 4348 | |
2729af9d WD |
4349 | If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance |
4350 | in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon- | |
4351 | ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment | |
4352 | variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means: | |
c609719b | 4353 | |
2729af9d WD |
4354 | o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the |
4355 | environment, the SROM's address is used. | |
c609719b | 4356 | |
2729af9d WD |
4357 | o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the |
4358 | environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is | |
4359 | used. | |
c609719b | 4360 | |
2729af9d WD |
4361 | o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and |
4362 | both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used. | |
c609719b | 4363 | |
2729af9d WD |
4364 | o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the |
4365 | addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a | |
4366 | warning is printed. | |
c609719b | 4367 | |
2729af9d WD |
4368 | o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error |
4369 | is raised. | |
c609719b | 4370 | |
ecee9324 | 4371 | If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses |
c0f40859 | 4372 | will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This |
ecee9324 BW |
4373 | may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable. |
4374 | The naming convention is as follows: | |
4375 | "ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc. | |
c609719b | 4376 | |

4377 | Image Formats: |
4378 | ============== | |
c609719b | 4379 | |
3310c549 MB |
4380 | U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) |
4381 | images in two formats: | |
4382 | ||
4383 | New uImage format (FIT) | |
4384 | ----------------------- | |
4385 | ||
4386 | Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar | |
4387 | to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple | |
4388 | components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by | |
4389 | SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory. | |
4390 | ||
4391 | ||
4392 | Old uImage format | |
4393 | ----------------- | |
4394 | ||
4395 | Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything, | |
4396 | preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for | |
4397 | details; basically, the header defines the following image properties: | |
c609719b | 4398 | |
2729af9d WD |
4399 | * Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, |
4400 | 4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks, | |
f5ed9e39 PT |
4401 | LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, INTEGRITY; |
4402 | Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, LynxOS, | |
4403 | INTEGRITY). | |
7b64fef3 | 4404 | * Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, |
afc1ce82 ML |
4405 | IA64, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; |
4406 | Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NDS32, Nios II, PowerPC). | |
2729af9d WD |
4407 | * Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2) |
4408 | * Load Address | |
4409 | * Entry Point | |
4410 | * Image Name | |
4411 | * Image Timestamp | |
c609719b | 4412 | |
2729af9d WD |
4413 | The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header |
4414 | and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by | |
4415 | CRC32 checksums. | |

2729af9d WD |
4418 | Linux Support: |
4419 | ============== | |
c609719b | 4420 | |
2729af9d WD |
4421 | Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application |
4422 | easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of | |
4423 | U-Boot. | |
c609719b | 4424 | |
2729af9d WD |
4425 | U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some |
4426 | special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any | |
4427 | "initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image; | |
4428 | instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation | |
4429 | serves several purposes: | |
c609719b | 4430 | |
2729af9d WD |
4431 | - the same features can be used for other OS or standalone |
4432 | applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the | |
4433 | Flash memory footprint) | |
c609719b | 4434 | |
2729af9d WD |
4435 | - it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because |
4436 | lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot | |
c609719b | 4437 | |
2729af9d WD |
4438 | - the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd" |
4439 | images; of course this also means that different kernel images can | |
4440 | be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't | |
4441 | have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just | |
4442 | change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the | |
4443 | software is easier now. | |

4446 | Linux HOWTO: |
4447 | ============ | |
c609719b | 4448 | |
2729af9d WD |
4449 | Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems: |
4450 | --------------------------------------- | |
c609719b | 4451 | |
2729af9d WD |
4452 | U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to |
4453 | configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware | |
4454 | (no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to | |
4455 | Linux :-). | |
c609719b | 4456 | |
a47a12be | 4457 | But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/powerpc/mbxboot). |
24ee89b9 | 4458 | |
2729af9d WD |
4459 | Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance |
4460 | include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board | |
1dc30693 MH |
4461 | Information structure as we define in include/asm-<arch>/u-boot.h, |
4462 | and make sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value | |
6d0f6bcf | 4463 | as your U-Boot configuration in CONFIG_SYS_IMMR. |
24ee89b9 | 4464 | |
c609719b | 4465 | |
2729af9d WD |
4466 | Configuring the Linux kernel: |
4467 | ----------------------------- | |
c609719b | 4468 | |
2729af9d WD |
4469 | No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root |
4470 | device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system. | |
4471 | ||
4472 | ||
4473 | Building a Linux Image: | |
4474 | ----------------------- | |
c609719b | 4475 | |
2729af9d WD |
4476 | With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are |
4477 | not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target | |
4478 | "uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by | |
4479 | U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target, | |
4480 | which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a | |
4481 | 100% compatible format. | |
4482 | ||
4483 | Example: | |
4484 | ||
4485 | make TQM850L_config | |
4486 | make oldconfig | |
4487 | make dep | |
4488 | make uImage | |
4489 | ||
4490 | The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to | |
4491 | encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header information, | |
4492 | CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing: | |
4493 | ||
4494 | * build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format): | |
4495 | ||
4496 | * convert the kernel into a raw binary image: | |
4497 | ||
4498 | ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \ | |
4499 | -R .note -R .comment \ | |
4500 | -S vmlinux linux.bin | |
4501 | ||
4502 | * compress the binary image: | |
4503 | ||
4504 | gzip -9 linux.bin | |
4505 | ||
4506 | * package compressed binary image for U-Boot: | |
4507 | ||
4508 | mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip \ | |
4509 | -a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" \ | |
4510 | -d linux.bin.gz uImage | |
c609719b | 4511 | |
c609719b | 4512 | |
2729af9d WD |
4513 | The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use |
4514 | with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or | |
4515 | combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64 | |
4516 | byte header containing information about target architecture, | |
4517 | operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time | |
4518 | stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc. | |
4519 | ||
4520 | "mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and | |
4521 | print the header information, or to build new images. | |
4522 | ||
4523 | In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information | |
4524 | contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes | |
4525 | checksum verification: | |
c609719b | 4526 | |
2729af9d WD |
4527 | tools/mkimage -l image |
4528 | -l ==> list image header information | |
4529 | ||
4530 | The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image | |
4531 | from a "data file" which is used as image payload: | |
4532 | ||
4533 | tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep \ | |
4534 | -n name -d data_file image | |
4535 | -A ==> set architecture to 'arch' | |
4536 | -O ==> set operating system to 'os' | |
4537 | -T ==> set image type to 'type' | |
4538 | -C ==> set compression type 'comp' | |
4539 | -a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex) | |
4540 | -e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex) | |
4541 | -n ==> set image name to 'name' | |
4542 | -d ==> use image data from 'datafile' | |
4543 | ||
69459791 WD |
4544 | Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load |
4545 | address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the | |
4546 | kernel version: | |
2729af9d WD |
4547 | |
4548 | - 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C, | |
4549 | - 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000. | |
4550 | ||
4551 | So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read: | |
4552 | ||
4553 | -> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' \ | |
4554 | > -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 \ | |
a47a12be | 4555 | > -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/powerpc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz \ |
2729af9d WD |

4606 | Installing a Linux Image: | |
4607 | ------------------------- | |
4608 | ||
4609 | To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface, | |
4610 | you must convert the image to S-Record format: | |
4611 | ||
4612 | objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec | |
4613 | ||
4614 | The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot | |
4615 | image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to | |
4616 | address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to | |
4617 | specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads' | |
4618 | command. | |
4619 | ||
4620 | Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the | |
4621 | TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank): | |
4622 | ||
4623 | => erase 40100000 401FFFFF | |

4654 | Boot Linux: | |
4655 | ----------- | |
4656 | ||
4657 | The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in | |
4658 | memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents | |
4659 | of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as | |
4660 | parameters. You can check and modify this variable using the | |
4661 | "printenv" and "setenv" commands: | |
4662 | ||
4663 | ||
4664 | => printenv bootargs | |
4665 | bootargs=root=/dev/ram | |
4666 | ||
4667 | => setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2 | |

4786 | More About U-Boot Image Types: |
4787 | ------------------------------ | |
4788 | ||
4789 | U-Boot supports the following image types: | |
4790 | ||
4791 | "Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment | |
4792 | provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave | |
4793 | well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from | |
4794 | the Standalone Program. | |
4795 | "OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which | |
4796 | will take over control completely. Usually these programs | |
4797 | will install their own set of exception handlers, device | |
4798 | drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot | |
4799 | expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU. | |
4800 | "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their | |
4801 | parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is | |
4802 | being started. | |
4803 | "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS | |
4804 | (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like | |
4805 | RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want | |
4806 | to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot | |
4807 | server provides just a single image file, but you want to get | |
4808 | for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image. | |
4809 | ||
4810 | "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each | |
4811 | image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network | |
4812 | byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0". | |
4813 | Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by | |
4814 | one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to | |
4815 | a multiple of 4 bytes). | |
4816 | ||
4817 | "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like | |
4818 | U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to | |
4819 | flash memory. | |
4820 | ||
4821 | "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by | |
4822 | U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially | |
4823 | useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush) | |
4824 | as command interpreter. | |
4825 | ||
44f074c7 MV |
4826 | Booting the Linux zImage: |
4827 | ------------------------- | |
4828 | ||
4829 | On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done | |
4830 | using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same | |
4831 | as the syntax of "bootm" command. | |
4832 | ||
017e1f3f MV |
4833 | Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_INITRD_RAW allows user to supply |
4834 | kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the | |
4835 | address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following | |
4836 | format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>". | |
4837 | ||

4838 | |
4839 | Standalone HOWTO: | |
4840 | ================= | |
4841 | ||
4842 | One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and | |
4843 | run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of | |
4844 | U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services. | |
4845 | ||
4846 | Two simple examples are included with the sources: | |
4847 | ||
4848 | "Hello World" Demo: | |
4849 | ------------------- | |
4850 | ||
4851 | 'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo | |
4852 | application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot. | |
4853 | It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it | |
4854 | like that: | |

4871 | argv[3] = "This" | |
4872 | argv[4] = "is" | |

4879 | ||
4880 | Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt | |
4881 | handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'. | |
4882 | Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second. | |
4883 | The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.' | |
4884 | character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be | |
4885 | controlled by the following keys: | |
4886 | ||
4887 | ? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers | |
4888 | b - enable interrupts and start timer | |
4889 | e - stop timer and disable interrupts | |
4890 | q - quit application | |

4927 | Minicom warning: | |
4928 | ================ | |
4929 | ||
4930 | Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the | |
4931 | "minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download. I (wd) | |
4932 | consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under | |
4933 | Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and | |
4934 | especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and | |
e53515a2 KP |
4935 | use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See |
4936 | http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.3. | |
4937 | for help with kermit. | |
4938 | ||
2729af9d WD |
4939 | |
4940 | Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this | |
4941 | configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section: | |
4942 | ||
4943 | Name Program Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi | |
4944 | X kermit /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s Y U Y N N | |

4947 | ||
4948 | NetBSD Notes: | |
4949 | ============= | |
4950 | ||
4951 | Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host | |
4952 | (build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx). | |
4953 | ||
4954 | Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on | |
4955 | NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also | |
4956 | need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make). | |
4957 | Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files; | |
4958 | attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is | |
4959 | missing. This file has to be installed and patched manually: | |
4960 | ||
4961 | # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include | |
4962 | # mkdir powerpc | |
4963 | # ln -s powerpc machine | |
4964 | # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h | |
4965 | # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST | |
4966 | ||
4967 | Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native | |
4968 | and U-Boot include files. | |
4969 | ||
4970 | Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a | |
4971 | stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel | |

4977 | Implementation Internals: | |
4978 | ========================= | |
4979 | ||
4980 | The following is not intended to be a complete description of every | |
4981 | implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the | |
4982 | inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom | |
4983 | hardware. | |
4984 | ||
4985 | ||
4986 | Initial Stack, Global Data: | |
4987 | --------------------------- | |
4988 | ||
4989 | The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot | |
4990 | starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to | |
4991 | system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet). | |
4992 | This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS | |
4993 | is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working | |
4994 | at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation | |
4995 | options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU | |
4996 | models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and | |
4997 | MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be | |
4998 | locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc. | |

218ca724 | 5000 | Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the |
0668236b | 5001 | U-Boot mailing list: |

5006 | ... | |
5007 | ||
5008 | Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it | |
5009 | is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not | |
5010 | require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness | |
5011 | is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of | |
5012 | necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's | |
11ccc33f | 5013 | beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you |
2729af9d WD |
5014 | can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and |
5015 | operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals. | |
5016 | ||
5017 | OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It | |
5018 | is another option for the system designer to use as an | |
11ccc33f | 5019 | initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either |
2729af9d WD |
5020 | option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your |
5021 | board designers haven't used it for something that would | |
5022 | cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not | |
5023 | used. | |
5024 | ||
6d0f6bcf | 5025 | CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere |
2729af9d WD |
5026 | with your processor/board/system design. The default value |
5027 | you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in | |
8a316c9b | 5028 | walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger |
2729af9d WD |
5029 | than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set |
5030 | it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources | |
5031 | that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in | |
5032 | start.S has been around a while and should work as is when | |
5033 | you get the config right. | |

5037 | ||
5038 | It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C | |
5039 | code for the initialization procedures: | |
5040 | ||
5041 | * Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt | |
5042 | to write it. | |
5043 | ||
11ccc33f | 5044 | * Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized |
2729af9d WD |
5045 | as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali- |
5046 | zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM). | |
5047 | ||
5048 | * Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like | |
5049 | that. | |
5050 | ||
5051 | Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use | |
5052 | normal global data to share information beween the code. But it | |
5053 | turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly | |
5054 | simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all | |
5055 | functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_ | |
5056 | functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of | |
5057 | the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we | |
5058 | place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we | |
5059 | reserve for this purpose. | |
5060 | ||
5061 | When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the | |
5062 | relevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by | |
5063 | GCC's implementation. | |
5064 | ||
5065 | For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use: | |
5066 | R1: stack pointer | |
e7670f6c | 5067 | R2: reserved for system use |
2729af9d WD |
5068 | R3-R4: parameter passing and return values |
5069 | R5-R10: parameter passing | |
5070 | R13: small data area pointer | |
5071 | R30: GOT pointer | |
5072 | R31: frame pointer | |
5073 | ||
e6bee808 JT |
5074 | (U-Boot also uses R12 as internal GOT pointer. r12 |
5075 | is a volatile register so r12 needs to be reset when | |
5076 | going back and forth between asm and C) | |
2729af9d | 5077 | |
e7670f6c | 5078 | ==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data |
2729af9d WD |
5079 | |
5080 | Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the | |
5081 | address of the global data structure is known at compile time), | |
5082 | but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat | |
5083 | smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on | |
5084 | average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image, | |
5085 | 624 text + 127 data). | |
5086 | ||
c4db335c | 5087 | On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here: |
4c58eb55 MF |
5088 | http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface |

4c58eb55 | 5091 | |
2729af9d WD |
5092 | On ARM, the following registers are used: |
5093 | ||
5094 | R0: function argument word/integer result | |
5095 | R1-R3: function argument word | |
5096 | R9: GOT pointer | |
5097 | R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking if enabled) | |
5098 | R11: argument (frame) pointer | |
5099 | R12: temporary workspace | |
5100 | R13: stack pointer | |
5101 | R14: link register | |
5102 | R15: program counter | |
5103 | ||
5104 | ==> U-Boot will use R8 to hold a pointer to the global data | |
5105 | ||
0df01fd3 TC |
5106 | On Nios II, the ABI is documented here: |
5107 | http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2cpu_nii51016.pdf | |
5108 | ||
5109 | ==> U-Boot will use gp to hold a pointer to the global data | |
5110 | ||
5111 | Note: on Nios II, we give "-G0" option to gcc and don't use gp | |
5112 | to access small data sections, so gp is free. | |
5113 | ||
afc1ce82 ML |
5114 | On NDS32, the following registers are used: |
5115 | ||
5116 | R0-R1: argument/return | |
5117 | R2-R5: argument | |
5118 | R15: temporary register for assembler | |
5119 | R16: trampoline register | |
5120 | R28: frame pointer (FP) | |
5121 | R29: global pointer (GP) | |
5122 | R30: link register (LP) | |
5123 | R31: stack pointer (SP) | |
5124 | PC: program counter (PC) | |
5125 | ||
5126 | ==> U-Boot will use R10 to hold a pointer to the global data | |
5127 | ||
d87080b7 WD |
5128 | NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope, |
5129 | or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much. | |
2729af9d WD |
5130 | |
5131 | Memory Management: | |
5132 | ------------------ | |
5133 | ||
5134 | U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the | |
5135 | MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection. | |
5136 | ||
5137 | The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory | |
5138 | controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each | |
5139 | memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several | |
5140 | physical memory banks. | |
5141 | ||
5142 | U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on | |
5143 | TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After | |
5144 | booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself | |
5145 | to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some | |
6d0f6bcf | 5146 | memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN |
2729af9d WD |
5147 | configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board |
5148 | Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward). | |
5149 | ||
5150 | Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB | |
5151 | of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF). | |
5152 | ||
5153 | So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like | |
5154 | this: | |
5155 | ||
5156 | 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code | |
5157 | : | |
5158 | 0x0000 1FFF | |
5159 | 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use | |
5160 | : | |
5161 | : | |
5162 | ||
5163 | : | |
5164 | : | |
5165 | 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward) | |
5166 | 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data | |
5167 | 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena | |
5168 | : | |
5169 | 0x00FD FFFF | |
5170 | 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code | |
5171 | ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer | |
5172 | ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset) | |
5173 | 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM] | |
5174 | ||
5175 | ||
5176 | System Initialization: | |
5177 | ---------------------- | |
c609719b | 5178 | |
2729af9d | 5179 | In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point |
11ccc33f | 5180 | (on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset |
2729af9d WD |
5181 | configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory. |
5182 | To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address. | |
5183 | To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!) | |
5184 | initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs | |
5185 | which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked | |
5186 | part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, | |
5187 | the caches and the SIU. | |
5188 | ||
5189 | Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a | |
5190 | preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries | |
5191 | (multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash | |
5192 | on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is | |
5193 | programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a | |
5194 | simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM | |
5195 | banks. | |
5196 | ||
5197 | When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of | |
5198 | different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first | |
5199 | bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address | |
5200 | 0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create | |
5201 | contiguous memory starting from 0. | |
5202 | ||
5203 | Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area | |
5204 | and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board | |
5205 | Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM | |
5206 | pages, and the final stack is set up. | |
5207 | ||
5208 | Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment; | |
5209 | until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are | |
5210 | running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a | |
5211 | new address in RAM. | |

5378 | * Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch |
5379 | containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be | |
5380 | returned with a request to re-formatting / split it. | |

5382 | * If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not |
5383 | add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful! | |
5384 | When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only | |
5385 | (using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature | |
5386 | disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your | |
5387 | modification. | |

5389 | * Remember that there is a size limit of 100 kB per message on the |
5390 | u-boot mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If they are | |
5391 | reasonable and not too big, they will be acknowledged. But patches | |
5392 | bigger than the size limit should be avoided. |
