4 bool "Support U-Boot commands"
7 Enable U-Boot's command-line functions. This provides a means
8 to enter commands into U-Boot for a wide variety of purposes. It
9 also allows scripts (containing commands) to be executed.
10 Various commands and command categorys can be indivdually enabled.
11 Depending on the number of commands enabled, this can add
12 substantially to the size of U-Boot.
18 This option enables the "hush" shell (from Busybox) as command line
19 interpreter, thus enabling powerful command line syntax like
20 if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'
21 constructs ("shell scripts").
23 If disabled, you get the old, much simpler behaviour with a somewhat

79 This option enables the possiblity to print all commands before

98 Interface) is used mostly on x86 for providing information to the
99 Operating System about devices in the system. The tables are set up
100 by the firmware, typically U-Boot but possibly an earlier firmware
101 module, if U-Boot is chain-loaded from something else. ACPI tables
102 can also include code, to perform hardware-specific tasks required
103 by the Operating Systems. This allows some amount of separation
104 between the firmware and OS, and is particularly useful when you
105 want to make hardware changes without the OS needing to be adjusted.

1036 geting device info. It also enables the 'diskboot' command which
1037 permits booting from an IDE drive.
1040 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
1042 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
1043 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
1044 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
1048 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
1050 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
1051 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
1052 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
1053 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
1055 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
1056 done and in what order.
1058 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
1059 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
1060 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
1061 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
1062 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
1065 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
1066 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
1067 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
1069 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
1070 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
1072 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
1073 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
1075 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
1076 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
1077 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
1078 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
1079 not the data read/written.

2326 bool "Padd partition size to take account of bad blocks"
2327 depends on CMD_MTDPARTS
2329 This enables the 'spread' sub-command of the mtdparts command.

2431 over a serial link for debugging purposes. This allows
2432 single-stepping, inspecting variables, etc. This is supported only
2433 on PowerPC at present.
2436 bool "log - Generation, control and access to logging"
2440 This provides access to logging features. It allows the output of
2441 log data to be controlled to a limited extent (setting up the default
