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").

115 Interface) is used mostly on x86 for providing information to the
116 Operating System about devices in the system. The tables are set up
117 by the firmware, typically U-Boot but possibly an earlier firmware
118 module, if U-Boot is chain-loaded from something else. ACPI tables
119 can also include code, to perform hardware-specific tasks required
120 by the Operating Systems. This allows some amount of separation
121 between the firmware and OS, and is particularly useful when you
122 want to make hardware changes without the OS needing to be adjusted.

1120 Provides an 'ide' command which allows accessing the IDE drive,
1121 resetting the IDE interface, printing the partition table and
1122 geting device info. It also enables the 'diskboot' command which
1123 permits booting from an IDE drive.
1126 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
1128 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
1129 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
1130 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
1134 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
1136 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
1137 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
1138 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
1139 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
1141 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
1142 done and in what order.
1144 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
1145 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
1146 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
1147 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
1148 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
1151 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
1152 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
1153 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
1155 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
1156 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
1158 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
1159 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
1161 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
1162 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
1163 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
1164 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
1165 not the data read/written.

2189 bool "Enable the 'aes' command"
2192 This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES
2193 (Advanced Encryption Standard). This algorithm uses a symetric key
2194 and is widely used as a streaming cipher. Different key lengths are
2195 supported by the algorithm but this command only supports 128 bits
2199 bool "Enable the 'blob' command"
2200 depends on !MX6ULL && !MX6SLL && !MX6SL
2201 select IMX_HAB if ARCH_MX6 || ARCH_MX7 || ARCH_MX7ULP || ARCH_IMX8M
2203 This is used with the Freescale secure boot mechanism.
2205 Freescale's SEC block has built-in Blob Protocol which provides
2206 a method for protecting user-defined data across system power
2207 cycles. SEC block protects data in a data structure called a Blob,
2208 which provides both confidentiality and integrity protection.
2210 Encapsulating data as a blob
2211 Each time that the Blob Protocol is used to protect data, a
2212 different randomly generated key is used to encrypt the data.
2213 This random key is itself encrypted using a key which is derived
2214 from SoC's non-volatile secret key and a 16 bit Key identifier.
2215 The resulting encrypted key along with encrypted data is called a
2216 blob. The non-volatile secure key is available for use only during
2219 During decapsulation, the reverse process is performed to get back
2223 blob enc - encapsulating data as a cryptgraphic blob
2224 blob dec - decapsulating cryptgraphic blob to get the data
2228 blob enc src dst len km
2230 Encapsulate and create blob of data $len bytes long
2231 at address $src and store the result at address $dst.
2232 $km is the 16 byte key modifier is also required for
2233 generation/use as key for cryptographic operation. Key
2234 modifier should be 16 byte long.
2236 blob dec src dst len km
2238 Decapsulate the blob of data at address $src and
2239 store result of $len byte at addr $dst.
2240 $km is the 16 byte key modifier is also required for
2241 generation/use as key for cryptographic operation. Key
2242 modifier should be 16 byte long.
2245 bool "Support 'hash' command"

2438 bool "MTD partition support"
2441 MTD partitioning tool support.
2442 It is strongly encouraged to avoid using this command
2443 anymore along with 'sf', 'nand', 'onenand'. One can still
2444 declare the partitions in the mtdparts environment variable
2445 but better use the MTD stack and the 'mtd' command instead.
2447 config CMD_MTDPARTS_SPREAD
2448 bool "Padd partition size to take account of bad blocks"
2449 depends on CMD_MTDPARTS
2451 This enables the 'spread' sub-command of the mtdparts command.
