-- Driver Model
- Driver model is a new framework for devices in U-Boot
- introduced in early 2014. U-Boot is being progressively
- moved over to this. It offers a consistent device structure,
- supports grouping devices into classes and has built-in
- handling of platform data and device tree.
-
- To enable transition to driver model in a relatively
- painful fashion, each subsystem can be independently
- switched between the legacy/ad-hoc approach and the new
- driver model using the options below. Also, many uclass
- interfaces include compatibility features which may be
- removed once the conversion of that subsystem is complete.
- As a result, the API provided by the subsystem may in fact
- not change with driver model.
-
- See doc/driver-model/README.txt for more information.
-
- CONFIG_DM
-
- Enable driver model. This brings in the core support,
- including scanning of platform data on start-up. If
- CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is enabled, the device tree will be
- scanned also when available.
-
- CONFIG_CMD_DM
-
- Enable driver model test commands. These allow you to print
- out the driver model tree and the uclasses.
-
- CONFIG_DM_DEMO
-
- Enable some demo devices and the 'demo' command. These are
- really only useful for playing around while trying to
- understand driver model in sandbox.
-
- CONFIG_SPL_DM
-
- Enable driver model in SPL. You will need to provide a
- suitable malloc() implementation. If you are not using the
- full malloc() enabled by CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START,
- consider using CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE. In that case you
- must provide CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN to set the size.
- In most cases driver model will only allocate a few uclasses
- and devices in SPL, so 1KB should be enable. See
- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN for more details on how to enable
- it.
-
- CONFIG_DM_SERIAL
-
- Enable driver model for serial. This replaces
- drivers/serial/serial.c with the serial uclass, which
- implements serial_putc() etc. The uclass interface is
- defined in include/serial.h.
-
- CONFIG_DM_GPIO
-
- Enable driver model for GPIO access. The standard GPIO
- interface (gpio_get_value(), etc.) is then implemented by
- the GPIO uclass. Drivers provide methods to query the
- particular GPIOs that they provide. The uclass interface
- is defined in include/asm-generic/gpio.h.
-
- CONFIG_DM_SPI
-
- Enable driver model for SPI. The SPI slave interface
- (spi_setup_slave(), spi_xfer(), etc.) is then implemented by
- the SPI uclass. Drivers provide methods to access the SPI
- buses that they control. The uclass interface is defined in
- include/spi.h. The existing spi_slave structure is attached
- as 'parent data' to every slave on each bus. Slaves
- typically use driver-private data instead of extending the
- spi_slave structure.
-
- CONFIG_DM_SPI_FLASH
-
- Enable driver model for SPI flash. This SPI flash interface
- (spi_flash_probe(), spi_flash_write(), etc.) is then
- implemented by the SPI flash uclass. There is one standard
- SPI flash driver which knows how to probe most chips
- supported by U-Boot. The uclass interface is defined in
- include/spi_flash.h, but is currently fully compatible
- with the old interface to avoid confusion and duplication
- during the transition parent. SPI and SPI flash must be
- enabled together (it is not possible to use driver model
- for one and not the other).
-
- CONFIG_DM_CROS_EC
-
- Enable driver model for the Chrome OS EC interface. This
- allows the cros_ec SPI driver to operate with CONFIG_DM_SPI
- but otherwise makes few changes. Since cros_ec also supports
- I2C and LPC (which don't support driver model yet), a full
- conversion is not yet possible.
-
-
- ** Code size options: The following options are enabled by
- default except in SPL. Enable them explicitly to get these
- features in SPL.
-
- CONFIG_DM_WARN
-
- Enable the dm_warn() function. This can use up quite a bit
- of space for its strings.
-
- CONFIG_DM_STDIO
-
- Enable registering a serial device with the stdio library.
-
- CONFIG_DM_DEVICE_REMOVE
-
- Enable removing of devices.
-
- Linux Kernel Interface:
CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ

CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT

+ CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION
+
+ Sometimes, for example if the display is mounted in portrait
+ mode or even if it's mounted landscape but rotated by 180degree,
+ we need to rotate our content of the display relative to the
+ framebuffer, so that user can read the messages which are
+ printed out.
+ Once CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is defined, the lcd_console will be
+ initialized with a given rotation from "vl_rot" out of
+ "vidinfo_t" which is provided by the board specific code.
+ The value for vl_rot is coded as following (matching to
+ fbcon=rotate:<n> linux-kernel commandline):
+ 0 = no rotation respectively 0 degree
+ 1 = 90 degree rotation
+ 2 = 180 degree rotation
+ 3 = 270 degree rotation
+
+ If CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION is not defined, the console will be
+ initialized with 0degree rotation.

CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.

+- Parallel Flash support:
+ CONFIG_SYS_NO_FLASH
+
+ Traditionally U-boot was run on systems with parallel NOR
+ flash. This option is used to disable support for parallel NOR
+ flash. This option should be defined if the board does not have
+ parallel flash.
+
+ If this option is not defined one of the generic flash drivers
+ (e.g. CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER or CONFIG_ST_SMI) must be
+ selected or the board must provide an implementation of the
+ flash API (see include/flash.h).
+
- DataFlash Support:
CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
Define this option to include a destructive SPI flash
test ('sf test').
- CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_BAR Ban/Extended Addr Reg
-
- Define this option to use the Bank addr/Extended addr
- support on SPI flashes which has size > 16Mbytes.
-
CONFIG_SF_DUAL_FLASH Dual flash memories
Define this option to use dual flash support where two flash
memories can be connected with a given cs line.
Currently Xilinx Zynq qspi supports these type of connections.
- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_ST_ENABLE_WP_PIN
- enable the W#/Vpp signal to disable writing to the status
- register on ST MICRON flashes like the N25Q128.
- The status register write enable/disable bit, combined with
- the W#/VPP signal provides hardware data protection for the
- device as follows: When the enable/disable bit is set to 1,
- and the W#/VPP signal is driven LOW, the status register
- nonvolatile bits become read-only and the WRITE STATUS REGISTER
- operation will not execute. The only way to exit this
- hardware-protected mode is to drive W#/VPP HIGH.

-- Detailed boot stage timing
- CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE
- Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage
- of the boot process.
-
- CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT
- This is the number of available user bootstage records.
- Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...)
- a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed
- the limit, recording will stop.
-
- CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT
- Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this:
-
- Timer summary in microseconds:
- Mark Elapsed Stage
- 0 0 reset
- 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start
- 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9

- 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start
- 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel
-
- CONFIG_CMD_BOOTSTAGE
- Add a 'bootstage' command which supports printing a report
- and un/stashing of bootstage data.
-
- CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT
- Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
- node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
- has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
- mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
- accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
- For example:
-
- bootstage {
- 154 {
- name = "board_init_f";
- mark = <3575678>;
- };
- 170 {
- name = "lcd";
- accum = <33482>;
- };
- };

- Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree.
