1 menu "Command line interface"
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.

56 menu "Autoboot options"
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.
158 Print ".config" contents.
160 If this option is enabled, the ".config" file contents are embedded
161 in the U-Boot image and can be printed on the console by the "config"
162 command. This provides information of which options are enabled on
169 Print console devices and information.
174 Print information about available CPUs. This normally shows the
175 number of CPUs, type (e.g. manufacturer, architecture, product or
176 internal name) and clock frequency. Other information may be

352 With x86 machines it is common to boot a bzImage file which
353 contains both a kernel and a setup.bin file. The latter includes
354 configuration information from the dark ages which x86 boards still
355 need to pick things out of.
357 Consider using FIT in preference to this since it supports directly

795 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
797 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
798 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
799 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
803 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
805 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
806 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
807 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
808 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
810 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
811 done and in what order.
813 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
814 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
815 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
816 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
817 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
820 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
821 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
822 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
824 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
825 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
827 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
828 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
830 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
831 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
832 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
833 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
834 not the data read/written.

1568 bool "Enable the 'aes' command"
1571 This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES
1572 (Advanced Encryption Standard). This algorithm uses a symetric key
1573 and is widely used as a streaming cipher. Different key lengths are
1574 supported by the algorithm but this command only supports 128 bits
1578 bool "Enable the 'blob' command"
1580 This is used with the Freescale secure boot mechanism.
1582 Freescale's SEC block has built-in Blob Protocol which provides
1583 a method for protecting user-defined data across system power
1584 cycles. SEC block protects data in a data structure called a Blob,
1585 which provides both confidentiality and integrity protection.
1587 Encapsulating data as a blob
1588 Each time that the Blob Protocol is used to protect data, a
1589 different randomly generated key is used to encrypt the data.
1590 This random key is itself encrypted using a key which is derived
1591 from SoC's non-volatile secret key and a 16 bit Key identifier.
1592 The resulting encrypted key along with encrypted data is called a
1593 blob. The non-volatile secure key is available for use only during
