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 '||'

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

1126 partitions via the 'rename' command.
1129 bool "ide - Support for IDE drivers"
1132 Provides an 'ide' command which allows accessing the IDE drive,
1133 resetting the IDE interface, printing the partition table and
1134 geting device info. It also enables the 'diskboot' command which
1135 permits booting from an IDE drive.
1138 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
1140 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
1141 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
1142 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
1146 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
1148 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
1149 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
1150 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
1151 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
1153 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
1154 done and in what order.
1156 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
1157 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
1158 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
1159 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
1160 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
1163 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
1164 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
1165 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
1167 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
1168 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
1170 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
1171 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
1173 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
1174 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
1175 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
1176 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
1177 not the data read/written.

2192 bool "lcdputs and setcurs"
2196 Enabling this will provide 'setcurs' and 'lcdputs' commands which
2197 support cursor positioning and drawing strings on the video
2198 console (framebuffer).
2200 The name 'lcdputs' is a bit of a misnomer, but so named because the
2201 video device is often an LCD.

2252 bool "Enable the 'aes' command"
2255 This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES
2256 (Advanced Encryption Standard). This algorithm uses a symetric key
2257 and is widely used as a streaming cipher. Different key lengths are
2258 supported by the algorithm but this command only supports 128 bits
2262 bool "Enable the 'blob' command"
2263 depends on !MX6ULL && !MX6SLL && !MX6SL
2264 select IMX_HAB if ARCH_MX6 || ARCH_MX7 || ARCH_MX7ULP || ARCH_IMX8M
2266 This is used with the Freescale secure boot mechanism.
2268 Freescale's SEC block has built-in Blob Protocol which provides
2269 a method for protecting user-defined data across system power
2270 cycles. SEC block protects data in a data structure called a Blob,
2271 which provides both confidentiality and integrity protection.
2273 Encapsulating data as a blob
2274 Each time that the Blob Protocol is used to protect data, a
2275 different randomly generated key is used to encrypt the data.
2276 This random key is itself encrypted using a key which is derived
2277 from SoC's non-volatile secret key and a 16 bit Key identifier.
2278 The resulting encrypted key along with encrypted data is called a
2279 blob. The non-volatile secure key is available for use only during
2282 During decapsulation, the reverse process is performed to get back
2286 blob enc - encapsulating data as a cryptgraphic blob
2287 blob dec - decapsulating cryptgraphic blob to get the data
