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.

79 This option enables the possiblity to print all commands before

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

1043 geting device info. It also enables the 'diskboot' command which
1044 permits booting from an IDE drive.
1047 bool "io - Support for performing I/O accesses"
1049 Provides an 'iod' command to display I/O space and an 'iow' command
1050 to write values to the I/O space. This can be useful for manually
1051 checking the state of devices during boot when debugging device
1055 bool "iotrace - Support for tracing I/O activity"
1057 Provides an 'iotrace' command which supports recording I/O reads and
1058 writes in a trace buffer in memory . It also maintains a checksum
1059 of the trace records (even if space is exhausted) so that the
1060 sequence of I/O accesses can be verified.
1062 When debugging drivers it is useful to see what I/O accesses were
1063 done and in what order.
1065 Even if the individual accesses are of little interest it can be
1066 useful to verify that the access pattern is consistent each time
1067 an operation is performed. In this case a checksum can be used to
1068 characterise the operation of a driver. The checksum can be compared
1069 across different runs of the operation to verify that the driver is
1072 In particular, when performing major refactoring of the driver, where
1073 the access pattern should not change, the checksum provides assurance
1074 that the refactoring work has not broken the driver.
1076 This works by sneaking into the io.h heder for an architecture and
1077 redirecting I/O accesses through iotrace's tracing mechanism.
1079 For now no commands are provided to examine the trace buffer. The
1080 format is fairly simple, so 'md' is a reasonable substitute.
1082 Note: The checksum feature is only useful for I/O regions where the
1083 contents do not change outside of software control. Where this is not
1084 suitable you can fall back to manually comparing the addresses. It
1085 might be useful to enhance tracing to only checksum the accesses and
1086 not the data read/written.

2333 bool "Padd partition size to take account of bad blocks"
2334 depends on CMD_MTDPARTS
2336 This enables the 'spread' sub-command of the mtdparts command.

2494 logical volumes on top of MTD devices, hides some complexities of
2495 flash chips like wear and bad blocks and provides some other useful
2496 capabilities. Please, consult the MTD web site for more details
2497 (www.linux-mtd.infradead.org). Activate this option if you want
2498 to use U-Boot UBI commands.
