- OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node.

OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.

This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot
param header, the default value is zero if undefined.
+ CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP
+
+ U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not.
+ If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot
+ removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux,
+ so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and
+ crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where
+ no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7.

- vxWorks boot parameters:
bootvx constructs a valid bootline using the following
CONFIG_CMD_DATE * support for RTC, date/time...
CONFIG_CMD_DHCP * DHCP support
CONFIG_CMD_DIAG * Diagnostics
- CONFIG_CMD_DOC * Disk-On-Chip Support
CONFIG_CMD_DS4510 * ds4510 I2C gpio commands
CONFIG_CMD_DS4510_INFO * ds4510 I2C info command
CONFIG_CMD_DS4510_MEM * ds4510 I2C eeprom/sram commansd
CONFIG_CMD_KGDB * kgdb
CONFIG_CMD_LOADB loadb
CONFIG_CMD_LOADS loads
+ CONFIG_CMD_MD5SUM print md5 message digest
+ (requires CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY and CONFIG_MD5)
CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY md, mm, nm, mw, cp, cmp, crc, base,
loop, loopw, mtest
CONFIG_CMD_MISC Misc functions like sleep etc
(requires CONFIG_CMD_I2C)

+ CONFIG_CMD_SHA1 print sha1 memory digest
+ (requires CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY)
CONFIG_CMD_SOURCE "source" command Support
CONFIG_CMD_SPI * SPI serial bus support

MPC5200 USB requires additional defines:
CONFIG_USB_CLOCK
for 528 MHz Clock: 0x0001bbbb
+ CONFIG_PSC3_USB
+ for USB on PSC3
CONFIG_USB_CONFIG
for differential drivers: 0x00001000
for single ended drivers: 0x00005000
+ for differential drivers on PSC3: 0x00000100
+ for single ended drivers on PSC3: 0x00004100
CONFIG_SYS_USB_EVENT_POLL
May be defined to allow interrupt polling
instead of using asynchronous interrupts
allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is
loaded very quickly after power-on.
+ CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN
+
+ If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned
+ on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the
+ position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as
+ number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it
+ is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also
+ specify 'm' for centering the image.
+
+ Example:
+ setenv splashpos m,m
+ => image at center of screen
+
+ setenv splashpos 30,20
+ => image at x = 30 and y = 20
+
+ setenv splashpos -10,m
+ => vertically centered image
+ at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9
+
- Gzip compressed BMP image support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP
If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP
Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP
server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.
+ CONFIG_KEEP_SERVERADDR
+
+ Keeps the server's MAC address, in the env 'serveraddr'
+ for passing to bootargs (like Linux's netconsole option)
+
- Multicast TFTP Mode:
CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP
therefore be cleared to 0 (See, eg, MPC823e User's Manual
p.16-473). So, set CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.
+ CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
+
+ When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer
+ chips might think that the current transfer is still
+ in progress. Reset the slave devices by sending start
+ commands until the slave device responds.
+
That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.
If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C)
configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to
load any image using TFTP
- autoscript - if set to "yes" commands like "loadb", "loady",
- "bootp", "tftpb", "rarpboot" and "nfs" will attempt
- to automatically run script images (by internally
- calling "source").
-
- autoscript_uname - if script image is in a format (FIT) this
- variable is used to get script subimage unit name.
-
autostart - if set to "yes", an image loaded using the "bootp",
"rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot" commands will
be automatically started (by internally calling
average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,
624 text + 127 data).
