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 '||'

63 This option enables the possiblity to print all commands before
64 executing them and after all variables are evaluated (similar
65 to Bash's xtrace/'set -x' feature).

80 List and dump ACPI tables. ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power
81 Interface) is used mostly on x86 for providing information to the
82 Operating System about devices in the system. The tables are set up
83 by the firmware, typically U-Boot but possibly an earlier firmware
84 module, if U-Boot is chain-loaded from something else. ACPI tables
85 can also include code, to perform hardware-specific tasks required
86 by the Operating Systems. This allows some amount of separation
87 between the firmware and OS, and is particularly useful when you
88 want to make hardware changes without the OS needing to be adjusted.

956 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
958 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
959 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
960 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
964 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
966 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
967 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
968 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
969 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
971 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
972 done and in what order.
974 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
975 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
976 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
977 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
978 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
981 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
982 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
983 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
985 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
986 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
988 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
989 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
991 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
992 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
993 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
994 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
995 not the data read/written.

2130 This enables the 'spread' sub-command of the mtdparts command.
2131 This command will modify the existing mtdparts variable by increasing
2132 the size of the partitions such that 1) each partition's net size is
2133 at least as large as the size specified in the mtdparts variable and
2134 2) each partition starts on a good block.
2136 config CMD_MTDPARTS_SHOW_NET_SIZES
2137 bool "Show net size (w/o bad blocks) of partitions"
2138 depends on CMD_MTDPARTS
2140 Adds two columns to the printed partition table showing the
2141 effective usable size of a partition, if bad blocks are taken
2144 config MTDIDS_DEFAULT
2145 string "Default MTD IDs"
2146 depends on MTD || SPI_FLASH
2148 Defines a default MTD IDs list for use with MTD partitions in the
2149 Linux MTD command line partitions format.
2151 config MTDPARTS_DEFAULT
2152 string "Default MTD partition scheme"
2153 depends on MTD || SPI_FLASH
2155 Defines a default MTD partitioning scheme in the Linux MTD command
2156 line partitions format
2159 bool "reiser - Access to reiserfs filesystems"
2161 This provides two commands which operate on a resierfs filesystem,
2162 commonly used some years ago:
2164 reiserls - list files
2165 reiserload - load a file
2168 bool "yaffs2 - Access of YAFFS2 filesystem"
2172 This provides commands for accessing a YAFFS2 filesystem. Yet
2173 Another Flash Filesystem 2 is a filesystem designed specifically
2174 for NAND flash. It incorporates bad-block management and ensures
2175 that device writes are sequential regardless of filesystem
2179 bool "zfs - Access of ZFS filesystem"
2181 This provides commands to accessing a ZFS filesystem, commonly used
2182 on Solaris systems. Two sub-commands are provided:
2184 zfsls - list files in a directory
2185 zfsload - load a file
2187 See doc/README.zfs for more details.
2191 menu "Debug commands"
2196 The bedbug (emBEDded deBUGger) command provides debugging features
2197 for some PowerPC processors. For details please see the
2198 documentation in doc/README.bedbug.
2201 bool "diag - Board diagnostics"
2203 This command provides access to board diagnostic tests. These are
2204 called Power-on Self Tests (POST). The command allows listing of
2205 available tests and running either all the tests, or specific tests
2209 bool "irq - Show information about interrupts"
2210 depends on !ARM && !MIPS && !RISCV && !SH
2212 This enables two commands:
2214 interrupts - enable or disable interrupts
2215 irqinfo - print device-specific interrupt information
2218 bool "kgdb - Allow debugging of U-Boot with gdb"
2221 This enables a 'kgdb' command which allows gdb to connect to U-Boot
2222 over a serial link for debugging purposes. This allows
2223 single-stepping, inspecting variables, etc. This is supported only
2224 on PowerPC at present.
2227 bool "log - Generation, control and access to logging"
2230 This provides access to logging features. It allows the output of
2231 log data to be controlled to a limited extent (setting up the default
2232 maximum log level for emitting of records). It also provides access
2233 to a command used for testing the log system.
2236 bool "trace - Support tracing of function calls and timing"
2238 Enables a command to control using of function tracing within
2239 U-Boot. This allows recording of call traces including timing
2240 information. The command can write data to memory for exporting
2241 for analysis (e.g. using bootchart). See doc/README.trace for full
2245 bool "avb - Android Verified Boot 2.0 operations"
2246 depends on AVB_VERIFY
2249 Enables a "avb" command to perform verification of partitions using
2250 Android Verified Boot 2.0 functionality. It includes such subcommands:
2251 avb init - initialize avb2 subsystem
2252 avb read_rb - read rollback index
2253 avb write_rb - write rollback index
2254 avb is_unlocked - check device lock state
2255 avb get_uuid - read and print uuid of a partition
2256 avb read_part - read data from partition
2257 avb read_part_hex - read data from partition and output to stdout
2258 avb write_part - write data to partition
2259 avb verify - run full verification chain
2263 tristate "Enable UBI - Unsorted block images commands"
2266 UBI is a software layer above MTD layer which admits use of LVM-like
2267 logical volumes on top of MTD devices, hides some complexities of
2268 flash chips like wear and bad blocks and provides some other useful
2269 capabilities. Please, consult the MTD web site for more details
2270 (www.linux-mtd.infradead.org). Activate this option if you want
2271 to use U-Boot UBI commands.
2272 It is also strongly encouraged to also enable CONFIG_MTD to get full
2275 config CMD_UBI_RENAME
2276 bool "Enable rename"
2280 Enable a "ubi" command to rename ubi volume:
2281 ubi rename <oldname> <newname>
2284 tristate "Enable UBIFS - Unsorted block images filesystem commands"
2286 default y if CMD_UBI
2289 UBIFS is a file system for flash devices which works on top of UBI.
