- CONFIG_SYS_PPC_E500_DEBUG_TLB
-
- Enables a temporary TLB entry to be used during boot to work
- around limitations in e500v1 and e500v2 external debugger
- support. This reduces the portions of the boot code where
- breakpoints and single stepping do not work. The value of this

different from COUNTER_FREQUENCY, and can only be determined

This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
user to write files to FAT.
-CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
- CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
-
- Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
- filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
- and cbfsload.
-
- FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem cluster size:
CONFIG_FS_FAT_MAX_CLUSTSIZE
instead.

- or CONFIG_VIDEO_SED13806_16BPP
-
CONFIG_FSL_DIU_FB

CONFIG_SYS_DIU_ADDR
CONFIG_VIDEO
- CONFIG_CMD_BMP
CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE
CONFIG_VIDEO_SW_CURSOR
CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE
320x240. Black & white.
- Normally display is black on white background; define
- CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
-
CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT
Normally the LCD is page-aligned (typically 4KB). If this is
here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on
a per-section basis.
- CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES
-
- When the console need to be scrolled, this is the number of
- lines to scroll by. It defaults to 1. Increasing this makes
- the console jump but can help speed up operation when scrolling
- is slow.
CONFIG_LCD_ROTATION
can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
bmp command.
-- Do compressing for memory range:
- CONFIG_CMD_ZIP
-
- If this option is set, it would use zlib deflate method
- to compress the specified memory at its best effort.
-
- Compression support:
CONFIG_GZIP
A byte containing the id of the VLAN.
-- Status LED: CONFIG_STATUS_LED
+- Status LED: CONFIG_LED_STATUS
Several configurations allow to display the current
status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink
soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and
start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running
(supported by a status LED driver in the Linux
- kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this
+ kernel). Defining CONFIG_LED_STATUS enables this
feature in U-Boot.
Additional options:
- CONFIG_GPIO_LED
+ CONFIG_LED_STATUS_GPIO
The status LED can be connected to a GPIO pin.
In such cases, the gpio_led driver can be used as a
- status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_GPIO_LED
+ status LED backend implementation. Define CONFIG_LED_STATUS_GPIO
to include the gpio_led driver in the U-Boot binary.
CONFIG_GPIO_LED_INVERTED_TABLE
this is instead controlled by the value of
/config/load-environment.
-- Parallel Flash support:
- CONFIG_SYS_NO_FLASH
-
- Traditionally U-Boot was run on systems with parallel NOR
- flash. This option is used to disable support for parallel NOR
- flash. This option should be defined if the board does not have
- parallel flash.
-
- If this option is not defined one of the generic flash drivers
- (e.g. CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER or CONFIG_ST_SMI) must be
- selected or the board must provide an implementation of the
- flash API (see include/flash.h).
-
- DataFlash Support:
CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
This enables 'hdmidet' command which returns true if an
HDMI monitor is detected. This command is i.MX 6 specific.
- CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
- This enables the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing
- a boot from specific media.
-
- This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to
- activate upon a watchdog reset which is nice when iterating
- on U-Boot. Using the reset button or running bmode normal
- will set it back to normal. This command currently
- supports i.MX53 and i.MX6.
-
- bootcount support:
CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
CONFIG_AT91SAM9XE
enable special bootcounter support on at91sam9xe based boards.
- CONFIG_BLACKFIN

and thus should be skipped silently.
- CONFIG_SPL_ABORT_ON_RAW_IMAGE
- When defined, SPL will proceed to another boot method
- if the image it has loaded does not have a signature.
-
CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
relocation. If unspecified, this is equal to
CONFIG_SPL_INIT_MINIMAL
Arch init code should be built for a very small image
- CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_SECTOR,
- CONFIG_SYS_U_BOOT_MAX_SIZE_SECTORS,
- Address and partition on the MMC to load U-Boot from
- when the MMC is being used in raw mode.

- Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.
-
- CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START, CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END:
Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
simple memory test.
Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.
- - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
+ - FAT_ENV_DEVICE_AND_PART:
Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
be as following:
addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses
to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem().
-- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY
- CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET
- If these options are used a optimized version of memcpy/memset will
- be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
- conditions but may increase the binary size.
-
- CONFIG_X86_RESET_VECTOR
If defined, the x86 reset vector code is included. This is not
needed when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
624 text + 127 data).
-On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P3) is followed as documented here:
- http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface
-
- ==> U-Boot will use P3 to hold a pointer to the global data
