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
24 smaller memory footprint.

62 This enables the autoboot. See doc/README.autoboot for detail.
65 bool "Stop autobooting via specific input key / string"
68 This option enables stopping (aborting) of the automatic
69 boot feature only by issuing a specific input key or
70 string. If not enabled, any input key will abort the
71 U-Boot automatic booting process and bring the device
72 to the U-Boot prompt for user input.
74 config AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
75 string "Autoboot stop prompt"
76 depends on AUTOBOOT_KEYED
77 default "Autoboot in %d seconds\\n"
79 This string is displayed before the boot delay selected by
80 CONFIG_BOOTDELAY starts. If it is not defined there is no
81 output indicating that autoboot is in progress.
83 Note that this define is used as the (only) argument to a
84 printf() call, so it may contain '%' format specifications,
85 provided that it also includes, sepearated by commas exactly
86 like in a printf statement, the required arguments. It is
87 the responsibility of the user to select only such arguments
88 that are valid in the given context.

96 string "Delay autobooting via specific input key / string"
97 depends on AUTOBOOT_KEYED && !AUTOBOOT_ENCRYPTION
99 This option delays the automatic boot feature by issuing
100 a specific input key or string. If CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
101 or the environment variable "bootdelaykey" is specified
102 and this string is received from console input before
103 autoboot starts booting, U-Boot gives a command prompt. The
104 U-Boot prompt will time out if CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME is
105 used, otherwise it never times out.
107 config AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
108 string "Stop autobooting via specific input key / string"
109 depends on AUTOBOOT_KEYED && !AUTOBOOT_ENCRYPTION
111 This option enables stopping (aborting) of the automatic
112 boot feature only by issuing a specific input key or
113 string. If CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR or the environment
114 variable "bootstopkey" is specified and this string is
115 received from console input before autoboot starts booting,
116 U-Boot gives a command prompt. The U-Boot prompt never
117 times out, even if CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME is used.
119 config AUTOBOOT_KEYED_CTRLC
120 bool "Enable Ctrl-C autoboot interruption"
121 depends on AUTOBOOT_KEYED && !AUTOBOOT_ENCRYPTION
124 This option allows for the boot sequence to be interrupted
125 by ctrl-c, in addition to the "bootdelaykey" and "bootstopkey".
126 Setting this variable provides an escape sequence from the
127 limited "password" strings.
129 config AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR_SHA256
130 string "Stop autobooting via SHA256 encrypted password"
131 depends on AUTOBOOT_KEYED && AUTOBOOT_ENCRYPTION
133 This option adds the feature to only stop the autobooting,
134 and therefore boot into the U-Boot prompt, when the input
135 string / password matches a values that is encypted via
136 a SHA256 hash and saved in the environment.
140 source "cmd/fastboot/Kconfig"
160 Print ".config" contents.
162 If this option is enabled, the ".config" file contents are embedded
163 in the U-Boot image and can be printed on the console by the "config"
164 command. This provides information of which options are enabled on
171 Print console devices and information.
176 Print information about available CPUs. This normally shows the

726 bool "ide - Support for IDE drivers"
729 Provides an 'ide' command which allows accessing the IDE drive,
730 reseting the IDE interface, printing the partition table and
731 geting device info. It also enables the 'diskboot' command which
732 permits booting from an IDE drive.
735 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
737 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
738 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
739 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
743 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
745 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
746 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
747 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
748 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
750 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
751 done and in what order.
753 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
754 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
755 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
756 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
757 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
760 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
761 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
762 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
764 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
765 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
767 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
768 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
770 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
771 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
772 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
773 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
774 not the data read/written.

1216 bool "terminal - provides a way to attach a serial terminal"
1218 Provides a 'cu'-like serial terminal command. This can be used to
1219 access other serial ports from the system console. The terminal
1220 is very simple with no special processing of characters. As with
1221 cu, you can press ~. (tilde followed by period) to exit.
1224 bool "uuid, guid - generation of unique IDs"
1227 This enables two commands:
1229 uuid - generate random Universally Unique Identifier

1271 - regulator current <val> - print/[set] current value [uA]
1272 - regulator mode <id> - print/[set] operating mode id
1273 - regulator enable - enable the regulator output
1274 - regulator disable - disable the regulator output
1276 The '-f' (force) option can be used for set the value which exceeds
1277 the limits, which are found in device-tree and are kept in regulator's
1278 uclass platdata structure.
1282 menu "Security commands"
1284 bool "Enable the 'aes' command"
1287 This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES
1288 (Advanced Encryption Standard). This algorithm uses a symetric key
1289 and is widely used as a streaming cipher. Different key lengths are
1290 supported by the algorithm but this command only supports 128 bits
1294 bool "Enable the 'blob' command"
1296 This is used with the Freescale secure boot mechanism.
1298 Freescale's SEC block has built-in Blob Protocol which provides
1299 a method for protecting user-defined data across system power
1300 cycles. SEC block protects data in a data structure called a Blob,
1301 which provides both confidentiality and integrity protection.
1303 Encapsulating data as a blob
1304 Each time that the Blob Protocol is used to protect data, a
1305 different randomly generated key is used to encrypt the data.
1306 This random key is itself encrypted using a key which is derived
1307 from SoC's non-volatile secret key and a 16 bit Key identifier.
1308 The resulting encrypted key along with encrypted data is called a
1309 blob. The non-volatile secure key is available for use only during
1312 During decapsulation, the reverse process is performed to get back
1316 blob enc - encapsulating data as a cryptgraphic blob
1317 blob dec - decapsulating cryptgraphic blob to get the data
1321 blob enc src dst len km
1323 Encapsulate and create blob of data $len bytes long
1324 at address $src and store the result at address $dst.
1325 $km is the 16 byte key modifier is also required for
1326 generation/use as key for cryptographic operation. Key
1327 modifier should be 16 byte long.
1329 blob dec src dst len km
1331 Decapsulate the blob of data at address $src and
1332 store result of $len byte at addr $dst.
1333 $km is the 16 byte key modifier is also required for
1334 generation/use as key for cryptographic operation. Key
1335 modifier should be 16 byte long.
1338 bool "Support 'hash' command"
1341 This provides a way to hash data in memory using various supported
1342 algorithms (such as SHA1, MD5, CRC32). The computed digest can be
1343 saved to memory or to an environment variable. It is also possible
1344 to verify a hash against data in memory.
1350 Add -v option to verify data against a hash.
1353 bool "Enable the 'tpm' command"
1356 This provides a means to talk to a TPM from the command line. A wide
1357 range of commands if provided - see 'tpm help' for details. The
1358 command requires a suitable TPM on your board and the correct driver
1362 bool "Enable the 'tpm test' command"
1365 This provides a a series of tests to confirm that the TPM is working
1366 correctly. The tests cover initialisation, non-volatile RAM, extend,
1367 global lock and checking that timing is within expectations. The
1368 tests pass correctly on Infineon TPMs but may need to be adjusted

1388 bool "Enable the 'btrsubvol' command"
1391 This enables the 'btrsubvol' command to list subvolumes
1392 of a BTRFS filesystem. There are no special commands for
1393 listing BTRFS directories or loading BTRFS files - this
1394 can be done by the generic 'fs' commands (see CMD_FS_GENERIC)
1395 when BTRFS is enabled (see FS_BTRFS).
1398 bool "Enable the 'cbfs' command"
1401 Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
1402 filesystem. This is a ROM-based filesystem used for accessing files
1403 on systems that use coreboot as the first boot-loader and then load
1404 U-Boot to actually boot the Operating System. Available commands are
1405 cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls and cbfsload.
1408 bool "Enable the 'cramfs' command"
1409 depends on FS_CRAMFS
