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").

116 Interface) is used mostly on x86 for providing information to the
117 Operating System about devices in the system. The tables are set up
118 by the firmware, typically U-Boot but possibly an earlier firmware
119 module, if U-Boot is chain-loaded from something else. ACPI tables
120 can also include code, to perform hardware-specific tasks required
121 by the Operating Systems. This allows some amount of separation
122 between the firmware and OS, and is particularly useful when you

1109 (legacy, needs conversion to driver model)
1110 Provides a way to dump FPGA registers by calling the board-specific
1111 fpga_get_reg() function. This functions similarly to the 'md'
1115 bool "fuse - support for the fuse subssystem"

1118 This allows reading, sensing, programming or overriding fuses
1119 which control the behaviour of the device. The command uses the

1161 partitions via the 'gpt swap' command or to rename single
1162 partitions via the 'rename' command.
1165 bool "ide - Support for IDE drivers"
1168 Provides an 'ide' command which allows accessing the IDE drive,
1169 resetting the IDE interface, printing the partition table and
1170 geting device info. It also enables the 'diskboot' command which
1171 permits booting from an IDE drive.
1174 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
1176 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
1177 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
1178 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
1182 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
1184 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
1185 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
1186 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
1187 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
1189 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
1190 done and in what order.
1192 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
1193 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
1194 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
1195 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
1196 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
1199 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
1200 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
1201 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
1203 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
1204 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
1206 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
1207 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
1209 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
1210 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
1211 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
1212 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
1213 not the data read/written.

2319 cu, you can press ~. (tilde followed by period) to exit.
2322 bool "uuid, guid - generation of unique IDs"
2325 This enables two commands:

2338 Enabling this will provide 'setcurs' and 'lcdputs' commands which
2339 support cursor positioning and drawing strings on the video
2340 console (framebuffer).
2342 The name 'lcdputs' is a bit of a misnomer, but so named because the
2343 video device is often an LCD.

2402 bool "Enable the 'aes' command"
2405 This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES

2414 select IMX_HAB if ARCH_MX6 || ARCH_MX7 || ARCH_MX7ULP || ARCH_IMX8M
2416 This is used with the Freescale secure boot mechanism.
2418 Freescale's SEC block has built-in Blob Protocol which provides
2419 a method for protecting user-defined data across system power
2420 cycles. SEC block protects data in a data structure called a Blob,
2421 which provides both confidentiality and integrity protection.
2423 Encapsulating data as a blob
2424 Each time that the Blob Protocol is used to protect data, a
2425 different randomly generated key is used to encrypt the data.
2426 This random key is itself encrypted using a key which is derived
2427 from SoC's non-volatile secret key and a 16 bit Key identifier.
2428 The resulting encrypted key along with encrypted data is called a
2429 blob. The non-volatile secure key is available for use only during

2454 generation/use as key for cryptographic operation. Key
2455 modifier should be 16 byte long.
2458 bool "Support 'hash' command"
2461 This provides a way to hash data in memory using various supported

2464 to verify a hash against data in memory.

2507 range of commands if provided - see 'tpm help' for details. The
2508 command requires a suitable TPM on your board and the correct driver
2514 bool "Enable the 'tpm test' command"
2517 This provides a a series of tests to confirm that the TPMv1.x is
2518 working correctly. The tests cover initialisation, non-volatile RAM,

2655 It is strongly encouraged to avoid using this command
2656 anymore along with 'sf', 'nand', 'onenand'. One can still
