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

1133 bool "ide - Support for IDE drivers"
1136 Provides an 'ide' command which allows accessing the IDE drive,
1137 resetting the IDE interface, printing the partition table and
1138 geting device info. It also enables the 'diskboot' command which
1139 permits booting from an IDE drive.
1142 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
1144 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
1145 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
1146 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
1150 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
1152 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
1153 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
1154 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
1155 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
1157 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
1158 done and in what order.
1160 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
1161 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
1162 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
1163 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
1164 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
1167 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
1168 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
1169 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
1171 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
1172 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
1174 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
1175 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
1177 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
1178 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
1179 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
1180 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
1181 not the data read/written.

2277 This is used with the Freescale secure boot mechanism.
2279 Freescale's SEC block has built-in Blob Protocol which provides
2280 a method for protecting user-defined data across system power
2281 cycles. SEC block protects data in a data structure called a Blob,
2282 which provides both confidentiality and integrity protection.
2284 Encapsulating data as a blob
2285 Each time that the Blob Protocol is used to protect data, a
2286 different randomly generated key is used to encrypt the data.
2287 This random key is itself encrypted using a key which is derived
2288 from SoC's non-volatile secret key and a 16 bit Key identifier.
2289 The resulting encrypted key along with encrypted data is called a
2290 blob. The non-volatile secure key is available for use only during
2293 During decapsulation, the reverse process is performed to get back
2297 blob enc - encapsulating data as a cryptgraphic blob
