1.3 版本的 UBOOT 还增加了一个 API 的文件夹,

这里放的是一些扩展应用的独立的 API 函数

Software Configuration:

软件配置:

=======================

Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the

rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.

配置是通过 C 预处理程序完成。

There are two classes of configuration variables:

有两类配置变量:

* Configuration _OPTIONS_:

配置选项:

These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with

"CONFIG_".

是可由用户选择并以“ CONFIG_ ”开头

* Configuration _SETTINGS_:

配置设置

These depend on the hardware etc. and should not be meddled with if

you don't know what you're doing; they have names beginning with

"CFG_".

依赖于硬件,由“ CFG_ ”开头

Later we will add a configuration tool - probably similar to or even

identical to what's used for the Linux kernel. Right now, we have to

do the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic

links and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards

as an example here.

以后我们将加入类似 Linux 内核一样的配置工具。但现在只能手工配置。

我们将以 TQM8XXL 为例。

第一步:

Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:

选择处理器架构和板类型:

---------------------------------------------------

For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default

configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".

对所有已至此的板都已经有可用的默认配置,只要执行:

make <boare_name>_config

下面是例子

Example: For a TQM823L module type:

cd u-boot

make TQM823L_config

For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;

e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent

directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.

对于加强型平台还要指定 CPU 类型,请阅读 cogent/READM

第二步

Configuration Options:

配置选项:

----------------------

Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all

such information is kept in a configuration file

配置依赖于板和 CPU ,所有配置设置信息保存在:

"include/configs/<board_name>.h ".

Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in

"include/configs/TQM823L.h".

Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux

kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to

build a config tool - later.

The following options need to be configured:

以下的选项需要被配置:

这里 MPC 的配置比较多,如果是 SMDK2410 的话配置会少很多

- CPU Type:  Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.

CPU 类型 :正确地定义一个种类,比如: CONFIG_MPC85XX

- Board Type:       Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.

板类型: 比如: CONFIG_MPC8540ADS

- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)

Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002

CPU 子类

- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)

Define exactly one of

CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD

CPU 模型

--- FIXME --- not tested yet:

CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,

CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50

- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)

Define exactly one of

CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102

主板

- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)

Define one or more of

CONFIG_CMA302

主板 I/O 模式

- Motherboard Options: (if CONFIG_CMA101 or CONFIG_CMA102 are defined)

Define one or more of

CONFIG_LCD_HEARTBEAT - update a character position on

the LCD display every second with

a "rotator" |/-/|/-/

- Board flavour: (if CONFIG_MPC8260ADS is defined)

CONFIG_ADSTYPE

Possible values are:

CFG_8260ADS   - original MPC8260ADS

CFG_8266ADS   - MPC8266ADS

CFG_PQ2FADS - PQ2FADS-ZU or PQ2FADS-VR

CFG_8272ADS   - MPC8272ADS

- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)

Define exactly one of

CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245

- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an MPC8xx CPU)

CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ  - deprecated: CPU clock if

get_gclk_freq() cannot work

e.g. if there is no 32KHz

reference PIT/RTC clock

CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK    - PLL input clock (either EXTCLK

or XTAL/EXTAL)

- 859/866/885 CPU options: (if using a MPC859 or MPC866 or MPC885 CPU):

CFG_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN

CFG_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX

CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT

See doc/README.MPC866

CFG_MEASURE_CPUCLK

Define this to measure the actual CPU clock instead

of relying on the correctness of the configured

values. Mostly useful for board bringup to make sure

the PLL is locked at the intended frequency. Note

that this requires a (stable) reference clock (32 kHz

RTC clock or CFG_8XX_XIN)

- Intel Monahans options:

CFG_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO

Defines the Monahans run mode to oscillator

ratio. Valid values are 8, 16, 24, 31. The core

frequency is this value multiplied by 13 MHz.

CFG_MONAHANS_TURBO_RUN_MODE_RATIO

Defines the Monahans turbo mode to oscillator

ratio. Valid values are 1 (default if undefined) and

2. The core frequency as calculated above is multiplied

by this value.

-         Linux Kernel Interface:

-         Linux 内核接口

CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ

U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz

internally.

UBOOT 以 Hz 位单位存储时钟信息

For binary compatibility with older Linux

kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the

bd_info data to be in MHz

Linux 内核期望时钟是以 MHz 位单位传到 bd_info 的 )

the environment variable

为了和内核兼容可以定义环境变量

"clocks_in_mhz " can be defined so that U-Boot

converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the

Linux kernel.

把 UBOOT 的时钟数据转换位 MHz 后传入内核

When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of

"clocks_in_mhz=1" is automatically included in the

default environment.

当 CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ 被定义后 clocks_in_mhz=1

会被自动包含到环境中

CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES          [relevant for MIPS only]

只跟 MIPS 相关

When transferring memsize parameter to linux, some versions

expect it to be in bytes, others in MB.

Define CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES to make it in bytes.

对于内存大小的参数可以定义 CONFIG_MEMSIZE_IN_BYTES

以 BYTES 位单位

CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT

New kernel versions are expecting firmware settings to be

passed using flattened device trees (based on open firmware

concepts).

CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT

* New libfdt-based support

* Adds the "fdt" command

* The bootm command automatically updates the fdt

OF_CPU - The proper name of the cpus node.

OF_SOC - The proper name of the soc node.

OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.

OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device

boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC

addresses

CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP

Board code has addition modification that it wants to make

to the flat device tree before handing it off to the kernel

CONFIG_OF_BOOT_CPU

This define fills in the correct boot CPU in the boot

param header, the default value is zero if undefined.

-         Serial Ports:

-         串口

CFG_PL010_SERIAL

Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs.

要支持 Amba PrimeCell PL010 UARTs 就定义此项

CFG_PL011_SERIAL

Define this if you want support for Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs.

CONFIG_PL011_CLOCK

If you have Amba PrimeCell PL011 UARTs, set this variable to

the clock speed of the UARTs.

CONFIG_PL01x_PORTS

If you have Amba PrimeCell PL010 or PL011 UARTs on your board,

define this to a list of base addresses for each (supported)

port. See e.g. include/configs/versatile.h

-         Console Interface:

-         控制台接口

Depending on board, define exactly one serial port

(like CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC1, CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SMC2,

CONFIG_8xx_CONS_SCC1, ...), or switch off the serial

console by defining CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE

依赖于板,定义一个串口

Note: if CONFIG_8xx_CONS_NONE is defined, the serial

port routines must be defined elsewhere

(i.e. serial_init(), serial_getc(), ...)

CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE

Enables console device for a color framebuffer.

使能控制台器件的彩色帧缓存

Needs following

defines (cf. smiLynxEM, i8042, board/eltec/bab7xx)

VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN      graphic memory organisation

(default big endian)

VIDEO_HW_RECTFILL  graphic chip supports

rectangle fill

(cf. smiLynxEM)

(requires blink timer

cf. i8042.c)

CFG_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT blink interval (cf. i8042.c)

CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME  display time/date info in

upper right corner

(requires CONFIG_CMD_DATE)

CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO       display Linux logo in

upper left corner

CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO    use bmp_logo.h instead of

linux_logo.h for logo.

Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_LOGO

CONFIG_CONSOLE_EXTRA_INFO

additional board info beside

the logo

When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is

default i/o.

当定义了 CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE 后,视频控制台位默认 I/O

Serial console can be forced with

environment 'console=serial'.

When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console

messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced with

the "silent" environment variable.

若定义了 CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE ,则所有控制台信息

都为缄默模式

See

doc/README.silent for more information.

查看 doc/README.silent 获得帮助

-         Console Baudrate:

-         控制台波特率

CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps

Select one of the baudrates listed in

CFG_BAUDRATE_TABLE , see below.

CFG_BRGCLK_PRESCALE , baudrate prescale

-         Interrupt driven serial port input:

-         中断驱动串口输入

CONFIG_SERIAL_SOFTWARE_FIFO

PPC405GP only.

仅对 PPC405GP

Use an interrupt handler for receiving data on the

serial port. It also enables using hardware handshake

(RTS/CTS) and UART's built-in FIFO. Set the number of

bytes the interrupt driven input buffer should have.

Leave undefined to disable this feature, including

disable the buffer and hardware handshake.

-         Console UART Number:

-         控制台 UART 数

CONFIG_UART1_CONSOLE

AMCC PPC4xx only.

仅对 AMCC PPC4XX

If defined internal UART1 (and not UART0) is used

as default U-Boot console.

-         Boot Delay:

-         启动延时

-             CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds

Delay before automatically booting the default image;

自动引导默认镜像的延时

set to -1 to disable autoboot.

-1 为禁止自动启动

See doc/README.autoboot for these options that

work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.

关于 CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 的选项请查阅 doc/README.autoboot

引导重试环境变量

CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME

CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN

这两个决定在 UBOOT 停止引导等待命令过程中的行为,

若环境变量 "bootretry" 存在,则 "bootretry" 的值将被应用,否则默认超时时间为

CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 的值, CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN 被选为 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 的缺省值,若 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 为负则不会发生超时。

CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED

CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT

CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR

CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR

CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2

CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2

"bootdelaykey"  environment variable

"bootstopkey"     environment variable

"bootdelaykey2" environment variable

"bootstopkey2"  environment variable

这些选项给停止自动引导提供更多的控制。当应用他们时就需要输入特定的字符或字符串来停止或延时自动引导。

CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT 显示一些信,但 CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 必须被定义。

#define CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT /

"autoboot in %d seconds/n",bootdelay

若 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR 或 "bootdelaykey" 被定义,但从控制台输入特定字符时,就会出现 UBOOT 提示符,停止自动引导。超时后自动重新引导。

若 CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR 或 "bootstopkey" 被定义,但从控制台输入特定字符时,就会出现 UBOOT 提示符,停止自动引导。超时后不自动重新引导。

CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2 或 "bootstopkey2" 则允许你有两个进入字符

CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK

CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY

CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK 此选项能让你通过敲击一个键来停止自动引导。

CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY 当 CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME 被定义时才有效。当超时时板将重启。

-         Autoboot Command:

-         自动引导命令

CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND

Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;

当 CONFIG_BOOTDELAY 使能使需要

define a command string that is automatically executed

when no character is read on the console interface

within "Boot Delay" after reset.

当启动延时时间内没有从控制接口都取字符时自动执行

它定义的命令字符

CONFIG_BOOTARGS

This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm

command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the

environment value "bootargs".

传递参数到 bootm 命令

CONFIG_RAMBOOT and CONFIG_NFSBOOT

The value of these goes into the environment as

"ramboot" and "nfsboot" respectively, and can be used

as a convenience, when switching between booting from

RAM and NFS.

实现从 RAM 和 NFS 启动的转换

- Pre-Boot Commands:

CONFIG_PREBOOT

When this option is #defined, the existence of the

environment variable "preboot" will be checked

immediately before starting the CONFIG_BOOTDELAY

countdown and/or running the auto-boot command resp.

entering interactive mode.

This feature is especially useful when "preboot" is

automatically generated or modified. For an example

see the LWMON board specific code: here "preboot" is

modified when the user holds down a certain

combination of keys on the (special) keyboard when

booting the systems

-         Serial Download Echo Mode:

-         串口下载回显模式

CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO

If defined to 1, all characters received during a

serial download (using the "loads" command) are

echoed back.

当设置为 1 时串口在下载时所有接受的字符都回显出来

This might be needed by some terminal

emulations (like "cu"), but may as well just take

time on others. This setting #define's the initial

value of the "loads_echo" environment variable.

这个设置定义了 "loads_echo" 的环境变量

-         Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CONFIG_CMD_KGDB is defined )

-         Kgdb 串口波特率

CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE

Select one of the baudrates listed in

CFG_BAUDRATE_TABLE ,

see below.

-         Monitor Functions:

-         监视函数

Monitor commands can be included or excluded

from the build by using the #include files

通过编译时包含 "config_cmd_all.h" 头文件来包含所有的监控命令

And 通过 #undef'ing 去掉不需要的命令 unwanted

commands, or using "config_cmd_default.h" 为包含默认命令

and augmenting with additional #define's

for wanted commands.

The default command configuration includes all commands

except those marked below with a "*".

Note:      Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands

(configuration option CONFIG_CMD_CACHE) unless you know

what you (and your U-Boot users) are doing. Data

cache cannot be enabled on systems like the 8xx or

8260 (where accesses to the IMMR region must be

uncached), and it cannot be disabled on all other

systems where we (mis-) use the data cache to hold an

initial stack and some data.

XXX - this list needs to get updated!

-         Watchdog:

-         看门狗

CONFIG_WATCHDOG

If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog

support.

若被定义则支持看门狗

There must be support in the platform specific

code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 CPUs, the

SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR

register.

-         U-Boot Version:

-         UBOOT 版本

CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE

If this variable is defined, an environment variable

named "ver" is created by U-Boot showing the U-Boot

version as printed by the "version" command.

This variable is readonly.

若这个变量被定义则 "ver" 的环境变量被 UBOOT 创建,通过 "version" 命令进行读取,此变量为只读

-         Real-Time Clock:

-         实时时钟

When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC

has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the

following options:

当 CONFIG_CMD_DATE 被选取时, RTC 的类型也要被选取,从以下选项中选一个最接近的

CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx  - use internal RTC of MPC8xx

CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563 - use Philips PCF8563 RTC

CONFIG_RTC_MC13783       - use MC13783 RTC

CONFIG_RTC_MC146818     - use MC146818 RTC

CONFIG_RTC_DS1338   - use Maxim, Inc. DS1338 RTC

CONFIG_RTC_DS164x   - use Dallas DS164x RTC

CONFIG_RTC_ISL1208  - use Intersil ISL1208 RTC

CONFIG_RTC_MAX6900      - use Maxim, Inc. MAX6900 RTC

CFG_RTC_DS1337_NOOSC - Turn off the OSC output for DS1337

Note that if the RTC uses I2C, then the I2C interface

must also be configured. See I2C Support, below.

若 RTC 用 I2C ,则 I2C 接口也要被配置。

-         Timestamp Support:

-         时间戳支持

When CONFIG_TIMESTAMP is selected, the timestamp

(date and time) of an image is printed by image

commands like bootm or iminfo. This option is

automatically enabled when you select CONFIG_CMD_DATE .

当选择了 CONFIG_CMD_DATE 后这个选项被自动使能,通过映像命令来打印映像的时间戳

-         Partition Support:

-         分区支持

CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION and/or CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION

and/or CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION

If IDE or SCSI support is enabled (CONFIG_CMD_IDE or

CONFIG_CMD_SCSI ) you must configure support for at

least one partition type as well.

-         IDE Reset method:

-         对 IDE 的支持

CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE - this is defined in several

board configurations files but used nowhere!

CONFIG_IDE_RESET - is this is defined, IDE Reset will

be performed by calling the function

ide_set_reset(int reset)

which has to be defined in a board specific file

- ATAPI Support:

CONFIG_ATAPI

Set this to enable ATAPI support.

- LBA48 Support

CONFIG_LBA48

Set this to enable support for disks larger than 137GB

Also look at CFG_64BIT_LBA ,CFG_64BIT_VSPRINTF and CFG_64BIT_STRTOUL

Whithout these , LBA48 support uses 32bit variables and will 'only'

support disks up to 2.1TB.

CFG_64BIT_LBA:

When enabled, makes the IDE subsystem use 64bit sector addresses.

Default is 32bit.

- SCSI Support:

At the moment only there is only support for the

SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define

若想使用 USB 控制台,定义下面的变量

Once firmware is rebuilt from a serial console issue the

command "setenv stdin usbtty; setenv stdout usbtty" and

attach your USB cable. The Unix command "dmesg" should print

it has found a new device. The environment variable usbtty

can be set to gserial or cdc_acm to enable your device to

appear to a USB host as a Linux gserial device or a

Common Device Class Abstract Control Model serial device.

If you select usbtty = gserial you should be able to enumerate

a Linux host by

# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xVendorID product=0xProductID

else if using cdc_acm, simply setting the environment

variable usbtty to be cdc_acm should suffice. The following

might be defined in YourBoardName.h

If you have a USB-IF assigned VendorID then you may wish to

define your own vendor specific values either in BoardName.h

or directly in usbd_vendor_info.h . If you don't define

CONFIG_USBD_MANUFACTURER, CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCT_NAME,

CONFIG_USBD_VENDORID and CONFIG_USBD_PRODUCTID, then U-Boot

should pretend to be a Linux device to it's target host.

定义 CFG_WHITE_ON_BLACK 取得反白效果

-         Splash Screen Support:

-         溅射屏幕(程序启动画面)支持

CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN

If this option is set, the environment is checked for

a variable "splashimage". If found, the usual display

of logo, copyright and system information on the LCD

is suppressed and the BMP image at the address

specified in "splashimage" is loaded instead. The

console is redirected to the "nulldev", too. This

allows for a "silent" boot where a splash screen is

loaded very quickly after power-on.

若被设置,就会在启动时显示放于环境变量 "splashimage" 中的 BMP 图片

-         Gzip compressed BMP image support:

-         Gzip 压缩 BMP 图片支持

CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_GZIP

If this option is set, additionally to standard BMP

images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the

splashscreen support or the bmp command.

-         Compression support:

-         压缩支持

CONFIG_BZIP2

If this option is set, support for bzip2 compressed

images is included. If not, only uncompressed and gzip

compressed images are supported.

若被设置就能支持 bzip2 压缩格式的映像

NOTE: the bzip2 algorithm requires a lot of RAM, so

the malloc area (as defined by CFG_MALLOC_LEN) should

be at least 4MB.

-         MII/PHY support:

-         媒体独立接口 / 物理接口收发器支持

CONFIG_PHY_ADDR

The address of PHY on MII bus.

媒体独立接口中物理层的地址

The clock frequency of the MII bus

媒体独立接口时钟频率

CONFIG_PHY_GIGE

If this option is set, support for speed/duplex

detection of gigabit PHY is included.

CONFIG_PHY_RESET_DELAY

Some PHY like Intel LXT971A need extra delay after

reset before any MII register access is possible.

For such PHY, set this option to the usec delay

required. (minimum 300usec for LXT971A)

物理层接口延时,某些物理层接口如 Intel LXT971A 重启后需要一定延时时间

CONFIG_PHY_CMD_DELAY (ppc4xx)

-         以太网地址

CONFIG_ETHADDR

CONFIG_ETH2ADDR

CONFIG_ETH3ADDR

Define a default value for Ethernet address to use

for the respective Ethernet interface, in case this

is not determined automatically.

配置不同以太网接口的地址

-         IP address:

-         IP 地址

CONFIG_IPADDR

Define a default value for the IP address to use for

the default Ethernet interface, in case this is not

determined through e.g. bootp.

-         Server IP address:

-         服务器 IP 地址

CONFIG_SERVERIP

Defines a default value for the IP address of a TFTP

server to contact when using the "tftboot" command.

为 "tftboot" 命令的 TFTP 服务定义一个缺省的 IP 地址

-         Multicast TFTP Mode:

-         多点传送 TFTP 模式

CONFIG_MCAST_TFTP

Defines whether you want to support multicast TFTP as per

rfc-2090; for example to work with atftp.  Lets lots of targets

tftp down the same boot image concurrently.  Note: the Ethernet

driver in use must provide a function: mcast() to join/leave a

multicast group.

定义是否支持多目标 tftp 同时下载同一映像,在以太网驱动中必须用 mcast() 函数来加入 / 离开多点传送。

CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY

- BOOTP Recovery Mode:

CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY

If you have many targets in a network that try to

boot using BOOTP, you may want to avoid that all

systems send out BOOTP requests at precisely the same

moment (which would happen for instance at recovery

from a power failure, when all systems will try to

boot, thus flooding the BOOTP server. Defining

CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be

inserted before sending out BOOTP requests.

定义一个 BOOTP 请求发送延时来避免所有系统正好同时发出 BOOTP 请求(同时发请求会导致 BOOTP 服务器溢出)

The  following delays are inserted then:

插入的延时时间表

1st BOOTP request:    delay 0 ... 1 sec

2nd BOOTP request:   delay 0 ... 2 sec

3rd BOOTP request:   delay 0 ... 4 sec

4th and following

BOOTP requests:        delay 0 ... 8 sec

-         DHCP Advanced Options:

-         DHCP 高级选项

You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by defining

CONFIG_BOOTP_* symbols:

CONFIG_BOOTP_SUBNETMASK

CONFIG_BOOTP_GATEWAY

CONFIG_BOOTP_HOSTNAME

CONFIG_BOOTP_NISDOMAIN

CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTPATH

CONFIG_BOOTP_BOOTFILESIZE

CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS

CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2

CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME

CONFIG_BOOTP_NTPSERVER

CONFIG_BOOTP_TIMEOFFSET

CONFIG_BOOTP_VENDOREX

CONFIG_BOOTP_SERVERIP - TFTP server will be the serverip

environment variable, not the BOOTP server.

CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS

serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more

than one DNS serverip is offered to the client.

If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS

serverip will be stored in the additional environment

variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always

stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS

is defined.

CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable

to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they

need the hostname of the DHCP requester.

If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content

of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as

option 12 to the DHCP server.

CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY

A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between

receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".

This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't

respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an

AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed

to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003

DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at

least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope

that one of the retries will be successful but note that

the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than

this delay.

推荐值为 50000

- CDP Options:

CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID

The device id used in CDP trigger frames.

CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX

A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address

of the device.

CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID

A printf format string which contains the ascii name of

the port. Normally is set to "eth%d" which sets

eth0 for the first Ethernet, eth1 for the second etc.

CONFIG_CDP_CAPABILITIES

A 32bit integer which indicates the device capabilities;

0x00000010 for a normal host which does not forwards.

CONFIG_CDP_VERSION

An ascii string containing the version of the software.

CONFIG_CDP_PLATFORM

An ascii string containing the name of the platform.

CONFIG_CDP_TRIGGER

A 32bit integer sent on the trigger.

CONFIG_CDP_POWER_CONSUMPTION

A 16bit integer containing the power consumption of the

device in .1 of milliwatts.

CONFIG_CDP_APPLIANCE_VLAN_TYPE

A byte containing the id of the VLAN.

-         Status LED:

-         状态 LED

CONFIG_STATUS_LED

Several configurations allow to display the current

status using a LED. For instance, the LED will blink

fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as

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

feature in U-Boot.

-         CAN Support:

-         CAN 总线支持

CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER

Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support

on those systems that support this (optional)

feature, like the TQM8xxL modules.

-         I2C Support:

-         I2C 支持

CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C

These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of

(but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will

include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected CPU.

定义这两项将允许 I2C 串行总线命令。配置这两项将包含相应的驱动

This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot

command line (as long as you set CONFIG_CMD_I2C in

CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime

clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the

command line interface.

CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE is a recommended option that places

all I2C commands under a single 'i2c' root command.  The

older 'imm', 'imd', 'iprobe' etc. commands are considered

deprecated and may disappear in the future.

CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller.

CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka

bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware

support for I2C.

There are several other quantities that must also be

defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C.

In both cases you will need to define CFG_I2C_SPEED

to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus

to run and CFG_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie

the CPU's i2c node address).

Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx (cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c)

sets the CPU up as a master node and so its address should

therefore be cleared to 0 (See, eg, MPC823e User's Manual

p.16-473). So, set CFG_I2C_SLAVE to 0.

That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C.

If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C)

then the following macros need to be defined (examples are

from include/configs/lwmon.h ):

若用软件 I2C 接口,则下面的宏应被定义

I2C_INIT

(Optional). Any commands necessary to enable the I2C

controller or configure ports.

eg: #define I2C_INIT (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=       PB_SCL)

I2C_PORT

(Only for MPC8260 CPU). The I/O port to use (the code

assumes both bits are on the same port). Valid values

are 0..3 for ports A..D.

I2C_ACTIVE

The code necessary to make the I2C data line active

(driven).  If the data line is open collector, this

define can be null.

用来激活 I2C 数据线

eg: #define I2C_ACTIVE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir |=  PB_SDA)

I2C_TRISTATE

The code necessary to make the I2C data line tri-stated

(inactive).  If the data line is open collector, this

define can be null.

eg: #define I2C_TRISTATE (immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdir &= ~PB_SDA)

I2C_READ

Code that returns TRUE if the I2C data line is high,

FALSE if it is low.

当 I2C 数据线为高则返回 TRUE ,为低则返回 FALSE

eg: #define I2C_READ ((immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat & PB_SDA) != 0)

I2C_SDA(bit)

If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C data line high. If it

is FALSE, it clears it (low).

Bit 为 TRUE 则设置 I2C 数据线为高

eg: #define I2C_SDA(bit) /

if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SDA; /

else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SDA

I2C_SCL(bit)

If <bit> is TRUE, sets the I2C clock line high. If it

is FALSE, it clears it (low).

Bit 为 TRUE 则设置 I2C 时钟线为高

eg: #define I2C_SCL(bit) /

if(bit) immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat |=  PB_SCL; /

else immr->im_cpm.cp_pbdat &= ~PB_SCL

I2C_DELAY

This delay is invoked four times per clock cycle so this

controls the rate of data transfer.

一个时钟周期调用四次延时,所以它决定了数据传输速率

The data rate thus is

数据速率为 1 / (I2C_DELAY * 4) . Often defined to be something

like:

#define I2C_DELAY  udelay(2)

CFG_I2C_INIT_BOARD

When a board is reset during an i2c bus transfer

chips might think that the current transfer is still

in progress. On some boards it is possible to access

the i2c SCLK line directly, either by using the

processor pin as a GPIO or by having a second pin

connected to the bus. If this option is defined a

custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c

is run early in the boot sequence.

CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)

This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags

in u-boot bd_info structure based on u-boot environment

variable "i2cfast". (see also i2cfast)

CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS

This option allows the use of multiple I2C buses, each of which

must have a controller.  At any point in time, only one bus is

active.  To switch to a different bus, use the 'i2c dev' command.

Note that bus numbering is zero-based.

多 I2C 总线支持通过 'i2c dev' 命令切换

CFG_I2C_NOPROBES

This option specifies a list of I2C devices that will be skipped

when the 'i2c probe' command is issued (or 'iprobe' using the legacy

command).

当输入命令 'i2c probe' 时将跳过这些 I2C 设备

If CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS is set, specify a list of bus-device

pairs.      Otherwise, specify a 1D array of device addresses

e.g.

#undef    CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS

#define CFG_I2C_NOPROBES      {0x50,0x68}

will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on a board with one I2C bus

跳过地址 0x50 和 0x68

#define   CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS

#define CFG_I2C_MULTI_NOPROBES      {{0,0x50},{0,0x68},{1,0x54}}

will skip addresses 0x50 and 0x68 on bus 0 and address 0x54 on bus 1

跳过总线 0 的地址 0x50 和 0x68 ,总线 1 的地址 0X54

CFG_SPD_BUS_NUM

If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for DDR SPD.

If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that SPD is on I2C bus 0.

指出 DDR SPD 所在 I2C 的总线,默认为 0 总线

CFG_RTC_BUS_NUM

If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the RTC.

If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that RTC is on I2C bus 0.

CFG_DTT_BUS_NUM

If defined, then this indicates the I2C bus number for the DTT.

If not defined, then U-Boot assumes that DTT is on I2C bus 0.

CONFIG_FSL_I2C

Define this option if you want to use Freescale's I2C driver in

drivers/i2c/fsl_i2c.c .

若用飞思卡尔的 I2C 驱动则定义

-         SPI Support:

-         SPI 支持

CONFIG_SPI

Enables SPI driver (so far only tested with

SPI EEPROM, also an instance works with Crystal A/D and

D/As on the SACSng board)

CONFIG_SPI_X

Enables extended (16-bit) SPI EEPROM addressing.

(symmetrical to CONFIG_I2C_X)

CONFIG_SOFT_SPI

Enables a software (bit-bang) SPI driver rather than

using hardware support. This is a general purpose

driver that only requires three general I/O port pins

(two outputs, one input) to function. If this is

defined, the board configuration must define several

SPI configuration items (port pins to use, etc). For

an example, see include/configs/sacsng.h.

允许不依赖硬件的软件 SPI 驱动,若想使用此项,则还在定义一些 SPI 配置选项,如 IO 管脚等,查看 include/configs/sacsng.h.

CONFIG_HARD_SPI

Enables a hardware SPI driver for general-purpose reads

and writes.  As with CONFIG_SOFT_SPI, the board configuration

must define a list of chip-select function pointers.

Currently supported on some MPC8xxx processors.  For an

example, see include/configs/mpc8349emds.h.

CONFIG_MXC_SPI

Enables the driver for the SPI controllers on i.MX and MXC

SoCs. Currently only i.MX31 is supported.

-         FPGA Support:

-         FPGA 支持

CONFIG_FPGA

Enables FPGA subsystem.

CONFIG_FPGA_<vendor>

Enables support for specific chip vendors.

(ALTERA, XILINX)

CONFIG_FPGA_<family>

Enables support for FPGA family.

(SPARTAN2, SPARTAN3, VIRTEX2, CYCLONE2, ACEX1K, ACEX)

CONFIG_FPGA_COUNT

Specify the number of FPGA devices to support.

CFG_FPGA_PROG_FEEDBACK

Enable printing of hash marks during FPGA configuration.

CFG_FPGA_CHECK_BUSY

Enable checks on FPGA configuration interface busy

status by the configuration function. This option

will require a board or device specific function to

be written.

CONFIG_FPGA_DELAY

If defined, a function that provides delays in the FPGA

configuration driver.

CFG_FPGA_CHECK_CTRLC

Allow Control-C to interrupt FPGA configuration

CFG_FPGA_CHECK_ERROR

Check for configuration errors during FPGA bitfile

loading. For example, abort during Virtex II

configuration if the INIT_B line goes low (which

indicated a CRC error).

CFG_FPGA_WAIT_INIT

Maximum time to wait for the INIT_B line to deassert

after PROB_B has been deasserted during a Virtex II

FPGA configuration sequence. The default time is 500

ms.

CFG_FPGA_WAIT_BUSY

Maximum time to wait for BUSY to deassert during

Virtex II FPGA configuration. The default is 5 ms.

CFG_FPGA_WAIT_CONFIG

Time to wait after FPGA configuration. The default is

200 ms.

-         Configuration Management:

-         结构管理

CONFIG_IDENT_STRING

If defined, this string will be added to the U-Boot

version information (U_BOOT_VERSION)

定义的字符串将出现在 UBOOT 版本信息里

- Vendor Parameter Protection:

卖主参数保护

U-Boot considers the values of the environment

variables "serial#" (Board Serial Number) and

"ethaddr" (Ethernet Address) to be parameters that

are set once by the board vendor / manufacturer, and

protects these variables from casual modification by

the user. Once set, these variables are read-only,

and write or delete attempts are rejected.

UBOOT 把环境变量 "serial#" 和 "ethaddr" 当作板卖主或是制造商一次性写入的,为防止用户偶然性的更改而对这些变量加以保护,一旦设置,这些变量就为只读,所有写入或删除操作将被拒绝

You can change this behaviour:

If CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE is #defined in your config

file, the write protection for vendor parameters is

completely disabled. Anybody can change or delete

these parameters.

一旦 CONFIG_ENV_OVERWRITE 在配置文件中被定义,则所有卖主参数的写保护都被禁止,任何人可以进行更改和读写

Alternatively, if you #define _both_ CONFIG_ETHADDR

_and_ CONFIG_OVERWRITE_ETHADDR_ONCE , a default

Ethernet address is installed in the environment,

which can be changed exactly ONCE by the user. [The

serial# is unaffected by this, i. e. it remains

read-only.]

-         Protected RAM:

-         保护 RAM

CONFIG_PRAM

Define this variable to enable the reservation of

"protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten

by U-Boot.

保护的 RAM 将不会被 UBOOT 覆盖

Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of

kB you want to reserve for pRAM.

定义你想保护的字节大小,单位为 KB

You can overwrite

this default value by defining an environment

variable "pram" to the number of kB you want to

reserve. Note that the board info structure will

still show the full amount of RAM. If pRAM is

reserved, a new environment variable "mem" will

automatically be defined to hold the amount of

remaining RAM in a form that can be passed as boot

argument to Linux, for instance like that:

setenv bootargs ... mem=/${mem}

saveenv

This way you can tell Linux not to use this memory,

either, which results in a memory region that will

not be affected by reboots.

*WARNING* If your board configuration uses automatic

detection of the RAM size, you must make sure that

this memory test is non-destructive.

若板子配置为自动检测 RAM 大小,请确保检测是无损的

So far, the

following board configurations are known to be

"pRAM-clean":

ETX094, IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,

HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, LANTEC,

PCU_E, FLAGADM, TQM8260

-         Error Recovery:

-         错误纠正

CONFIG_PANIC_HANG

Define this variable to stop the system in case of a

fatal error, so that you have to reset it manually.

一旦发生错误就停止系统,并要手动重启

This is probably NOT a good idea for an embedded

system where you want the system to reboot

automatically as fast as possible, but it may be

useful during development since you can try to debug

the conditions that lead to the situation.

CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT

This variable defines the number of retries for

network operations like ARP, RARP, TFTP, or BOOTP

before giving up the operation. If not defined, a

default value of 5 is used.

定义网络操作的重试次数,默认为 5

CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT

Timeout waiting for an ARP reply in milliseconds.

-         Command Interpreter:

-         命令解释

CONFIG_AUTO_COMPLETE

Enable auto completion of commands using TAB.

允许用 TAB 来自动完成命令

Note that this feature has NOT been implemented yet

for the "hush" shell.

CFG_HUSH_PARSER

Define this variable to enable the "hush" shell (from

Busybox) as command line interpreter, thus enabling

powerful command line syntax like

if...then...else...fi conditionals or `&&' and '||'

constructs ("shell scripts").

If undefined, you get the old, much simpler behaviour

with a somewhat smaller memory footprint.

CFG_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2

This defines the secondary prompt string, which is

printed when the command interpreter needs more input

to complete a command. Usually "> ".

定义命令行的第二个提示符

Note:

In the current implementation, the local variables

space and global environment variables space are

separated. Local variables are those you define by

simply typing `name=value'. To access a local

variable later on, you have write `$name' or

`${name}'; to execute the contents of a variable

directly type `$name' at the command prompt.

目前本地变量空间和全局环境变量空间是分开的,本地变量是通过

`name=value' 定义的,可通过 `$name' 或 `${name}' 来访问,在命令提示符下输入 `$name' 来访问变量内容

Global environment variables are those you use

setenv/printenv to work with. To run a command stored

in such a variable, you need to use the run command,

and you must not use the '$' sign to access them.

全局环境变量是通过 setenv/printenv 来运行和访问的

To store commands and special characters in a

variable, please use double quotation marks

surrounding the whole text of the variable, instead

of the backslashes before semicolons and special

symbols.

- Commandline Editing and History:

CONFIG_CMDLINE_EDITING

Enable editing and History functions for interactive

commandline input operations

- Default Environment:

CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS

Define this to contain any number of null terminated

strings (variable = value pairs) that will be part of

the default environment compiled into the boot image.

For example, place something like this in your

board's config file:

#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS /

"myvar1=value1/0" /

"myvar2=value2/0"

Warning: This method is based on knowledge about the

internal format how the environment is stored by the

U-Boot code. This is NOT an official, exported

interface! Although it is unlikely that this format

will change soon, there is no guarantee either.

You better know what you are doing here.

Note: overly (ab)use of the default environment is

discouraged. Make sure to check other ways to preset

the environment like the autoscript function or the

boot command first.

-         DataFlash Support:

-         数据 Flash 支持

CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH

Defining this option enables DataFlash features and

allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard

commands cp, md...

定义此项来允许数据 Flash 特性,如 cp,md 命令

- SystemACE Support:

CONFIG_SYSTEMACE

Adding this option adds support for Xilinx SystemACE

chips attached via some sort of local bus. The address

of the chip must also be defined in the

CFG_SYSTEMACE_BASE macro. For example:

#define CONFIG_SYSTEMACE

#define CFG_SYSTEMACE_BASE 0xf0000000

When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type

becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.

-         TFTP Fixed UDP Port:

-         TFTP 固定 UDP 端口

CONFIG_TFTP_PORT

If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp

is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.

If tftpsrcp isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port

number generator is used.

若被定义则环境变量 tftpsrcp 用来提供 TFTP UDP 源端口值,

若 tftpsrcp 没被定义则默认一个伪随机端口

Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply

the TFTP UDP destination port value.  If tftpdstp isn't

defined, the normal port 69 is used.

Tftpdstp 环境变来用来指定目的端口,若不定义则默认 69

The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to

blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured

target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of

"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing

the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.

A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,

but sometimes that is not allowed.

-         Show boot progress:

-         显示 BOOT 过程

CONFIG_SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS

Defining this option allows to add some board-

specific code (calling a user-provided function

"show_boot_progress(int)") that enables you to show

the system's boot progress on some display (for

example, some LED's) on your board. At the moment,

the following checkpoints are implemented:

允许用户通过调用函数 "show_boot_progress(int)" 在特定设备显示系统启动过程,此刻下面的检查点将被执行

Modem Support:

调制解调器支持

--------------

[so far only for SMDK2400 and TRAB boards]

目前只支持 SMDK2400 和 TRAB 板

- Modem support enable:

CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT

- RTS/CTS Flow control enable:

CONFIG_HWFLOW

- Modem debug support:

CONFIG_MODEM_SUPPORT_DEBUG

Enables debugging stuff (char screen[1024], dbg())

for modem support. Useful only with BDI2000.

-         Interrupt support (PPC):

-         中断支持( PPC )

There are common interrupt_init() and timer_interrupt()

for all PPC archs. interrupt_init() calls interrupt_init_cpu()

for CPU specific initialization. interrupt_init_cpu()

should set decrementer_count to appropriate value. If

CPU resets decrementer automatically after interrupt

(ppc4xx) it should set decrementer_count to zero.

timer_interrupt() calls timer_interrupt_cpu() for CPU

specific handling. If board has watchdog / status_led

/ other_activity_monitor it works automatically from

general timer_interrupt().

- General:

In the target system modem support is enabled when a

specific key (key combination) is pressed during

power-on. Otherwise U-Boot will boot normally

(autoboot). The key_pressed() function is called from

board_init(). Currently key_pressed() is a dummy

function, returning 1 and thus enabling modem

initialization.

If there are no modem init strings in the

environment, U-Boot proceed to autoboot; the

previous output (banner, info printfs) will be

suppressed, though.

See also: doc/README.Modem

Configuration Settings:

配置设置

-----------------------

- CFG_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;

undefine this when you're short of memory.

当需要较长的帮助时就定义此项,若内存太小就不要定义

- CFG_PROMPT:       This is what U-Boot prints on the console to

prompt for user input.

UBOOT 打印到控制台的输入提示

- CFG_CBSIZE:  Buffer size for input from the Console

控制台输入的缓存大小

- CFG_PBSIZE:  Buffer size for Console output

控制台输出的缓存大小

- CFG_MAXARGS:   max. Number of arguments accepted for monitor commands

监控器接受的最大参数数量

- CFG_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to

the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is

booted

传入应用程序的启动参数的缓存的大小

- CFG_BAUDRATE_TABLE:

List of legal baudrate settings for this board.

此板所有合法的波特率

- CFG_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET

Suppress display of console information at boot.

禁止显示启动信息

- CFG_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV

If the board specific function

extern int overwrite_console (void);

returns 1, the stdin, stderr and stdout are switched to the

serial port, else the settings in the environment are used.

若函数 extern int overwrite_console (void) 返回 1 ,则 stdin, stderr 和 stdout

转接到串口,否则环境中的设置将被应用

- CFG_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE

Enable the call to overwrite_console().

允许调用 overwrite_console()

- CFG_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE

Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.

允许覆盖以前的控制台环境设置

- CFG_MEMTEST_START, CFG_MEMTEST_END:

- CFG_ALT_MEMTEST:

Enable an alternate, more extensive memory test.

- CFG_MEMTEST_SCRATCH:

Scratch address used by the alternate memory test

You only need to set this if address zero isn't writeable

- CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE (PPC only):

If CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header,

this specified memory area will get subtracted from the top

(end) of RAM and won't get "touched" at all by U-Boot. By

fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel should gets passed

the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it either.

This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux

board ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support that

recalculate the memory size from the SDRAM controller setup

will have to get fixed in Linux additionally.

This option can be used as a workaround for the 440EPx/GRx

CHIP 11 errata where the last 256 bytes in SDRAM shouldn't

be touched.

WARNING: Please make sure that this value is a multiple of

the Linux page size (normally 4k). If this is not the case,

then the end address of the Linux memory will be located at a

non page size aligned address and this could cause major

problems.

- CFG_TFTP_LOADADDR:

Default load address for network file downloads

网络文件下载的默认加载地址

- CFG_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:

Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download

Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.

DRAM 中保留为 malloc() 所用的大小

- CFG_BOOTM_LEN:

Normally compressed uImages are limited to an

uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,

you can define CFG_BOOTM_LEN in your board config file

to adjust this setting to your needs.

对压缩映像解压后大小的限制,默认为 8MB

- CFG_BOOTMAPSZ:

Maximum size of memory mapped by the startup code of

the Linux kernel; all data that must be processed by

the Linux kernel (bd_info, boot arguments, FDT blob if

used) must be put below this limit, unless "bootm_low"

enviroment variable is defined and non-zero. In such case

all data for the Linux kernel must be between "bootm_low"

and "bootm_low" + CFG_BOOTMAPSZ.

- CFG_FLASH_PROTECTION

If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used

instead of U-Boot software protection.

定义硬件 FLASH 段保护

- CFG_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:

Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;

允许 TFTP 直接传输到 flash

without this option such a download has to be

performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)

copy from RAM to flash.

否则先要下到 RAM 再有 RAM 拷贝到 flash

The two-step approach is usually more reliable, since

you can check if the download worked before you erase

the flash, but in some situations (when system RAM is

too limited to allow for a temporary copy of the

downloaded image) this option may be very useful.

分两步将更可靠,因为你可以在下载前先检查是否擦除了 flash

- CFG_FLASH_CFI:

Define if the flash driver uses extra elements in the

common flash structure for storing flash geometry.

- CFG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER

This option also enables the building of the cfi_flash driver

Use buffered writes to flash.

利用缓存写 flash

- CONFIG_FLASH_SPANSION_S29WS_N

s29ws-n MirrorBit flash has non-standard addresses for buffered

write commands.

- CFG_FLASH_QUIET_TEST

If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't

print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks.

定义在识别 FLASH banks 之前打印通用 CFI flash 警告信息

This

is useful, if some of the configured banks are only

optionally available.

- CONFIG_FLASH_SHOW_PROGRESS

If defined (must be an integer), print out countdown

digits and dots.

定义打印出计数数字和点

Recommended value: 45 (9..1) for 80

column displays, 15 (3..1) for 40 column displays.

- CFG_RX_ETH_BUFFER:

Defines the number of Ethernet receive buffers.

定义以太网接受缓存

On some

Ethernet controllers it is recommended to set this value

to 8 or even higher (EEPRO100 or 405 EMAC), since all

buffers can be full shortly after enabling the interface

on high Ethernet traffic.

Defaults to 4 if not defined.

The following definitions that deal with the placement and management

of environment data (variable area);

下面为设置环境变量

in general, we support the following configurations:

- CFG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:

Define this if the environment is in flash memory.

若环境变量在 FLASH 中就定义此项

a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is

"embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code.

环境占用了 flash 的一个整段

This

happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot

sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller

sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a

layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In

such a case you would place the environment in one of the

4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With

"top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the

environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap

between U-Boot and the environment.

将环境放在最后一个分区中,在 UBOOT 和环境变量中哦国内留出间隙

- CFG_ENV_OFFSET:

Offset of environment data (variable area) to the

beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot

type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset

for this sector is given here.

CFG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CFG_FLASH_BASE.

- CFG_ENV_ADDR:

This is just another way to specify the start address of

the flash sector containing the environment (instead of

CFG_ENV_OFFSET).

指定包含环境的 FLASH 段的开始地址

- CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:

Size of the sector containing the environment.

环境段的大小

b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.

In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for

the environment.

- CFG_ENV_SIZE:

If you use this in combination with CFG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH

and CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part

of this flash sector for the environment. This saves

memory for the RAM copy of the environment.

联合 CFG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 和 CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE 就能指定段中的一部分用来设置环境

It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this

when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,

since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used

for U-Boot code.

但你的环境变量嵌在 UBOOT 代码中,而你决定使用这个的话,它可以保存 flash 存储器

It should be pointed out that this is

STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:

updating the environment in flash makes it always

necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes

wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in

RAM, your target system will be dead.

- CFG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND

CFG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND

These settings describe a second storage area used to hold

a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is

a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during

a "saveenv" operation.

第二个储存环境变量的空间,用来作为备份

BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the

source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*

accordingly!

- CFG_ENV_IS_IN_NVRAM:

Define this if you have some non-volatile memory device

(NVRAM, battery buffered SRAM) which you want to use for the

environment.

若将环境变量保存到非易失性 RAM 中,定义此项

- CFG_ENV_ADDR:

- CFG_ENV_SIZE:

These two #defines are used to determine the memory area you

want to use for environment. It is assumed that this memory

can just be read and written to, without any special

provision.

定义用作环境变量的储存器地址和大小

BE CAREFUL! The first access to the environment happens quite early

in U-Boot initalization (when we try to get the setting of for the

console baudrate). You *MUST* have mapped your NVRAM area then, or

U-Boot will hang.

小心第一次对环境变量的存取发生在 UBOOT 初始化的过程中

Please note that even with NVRAM we still use a copy of the

environment in RAM: we could work on NVRAM directly, but we want to

keep settings there always unmodified except somebody uses "saveenv"

to save the current settings.

注意,即使是用非易失性 RAM 我们仍然用 RAM 中的环境变量,为的是保持环境变量的不更改,除非使用 "saveenv" 保存环境变量

- CFG_ENV_IS_IN_EEPROM:

Use this if you have an EEPROM or similar serial access

device and a driver for it.

EEPROM 或相应的串行访问设备时定义此项

- CFG_ENV_OFFSET:

- CFG_ENV_SIZE:

These two #defines specify the offset and size of the

environment area within the total memory of your EEPROM.

指定环境变量在 EEPROM 中的偏移和大小

- CFG_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR:

If defined, specified the chip address of the EEPROM device.

The default address is zero.

定义 EERPOM 的器件地址,默认为 0

- CFG_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_BITS:

If defined, the number of bits used to address bytes in a

single page in the EEPROM device.  A 64 byte page, for example

would require six bits.

用来声明 EEPROM 单页字节的位

- CFG_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_DELAY_MS:

If defined, the number of milliseconds to delay between

page writes.      The default is zero milliseconds.

写页间隔,默认为 0 ,单位为毫秒

- CFG_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_LEN:

The length in bytes of the EEPROM memory array address.  Note

that this is NOT the chip address length!

EEPROM 储存阵列地址长度,非器件地址长度

- CFG_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW:

EEPROM chips that implement "address overflow" are ones

like Catalyst 24WC04/08/16 which has 9/10/11 bits of

address and the extra bits end up in the "chip address" bit

slots. This makes a 24WC08 (1Kbyte) chip look like four 256

byte chips.

Note that we consider the length of the address field to

still be one byte because the extra address bits are hidden

in the chip address.

- CFG_EEPROM_SIZE:

The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.

EEPROM 大小,单位为字节

- CFG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:

Define this if you have a DataFlash memory device which you

want to use for the environment.

若想用数据 Flash 来储存环境变量就定义此项

- CFG_ENV_OFFSET:

- CFG_ENV_ADDR:

- CFG_ENV_SIZE:

These three #defines specify the offset and size of the

environment area within the total memory of your DataFlash placed

at the specified address.

- CFG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND:

Define this if you have a NAND device which you want to use

for the environment.

若想用 NAND Flash 来储存环境变量就定义此项

- CFG_ENV_OFFSET:

- CFG_ENV_SIZE:

These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment

area within the first NAND device.

指明环境变量在第一个 NAND 器件中的地址偏移和大小

- CFG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND

This setting describes a second storage area of CFG_ENV_SIZE

size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data,

so that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a

power failure during a "saveenv" operation.

Note: CFG_ENV_OFFSET and CFG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND must be aligned

to a block boundary, and CFG_ENV_SIZE must be a multiple of

the NAND devices block size.

CFG_ENV_SIZE 的大小必须是 NAND 器件块大小的倍数

- CFG_SPI_INIT_OFFSET

Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The

area is used at an early stage (ROM part) if the environment

is configured to reside in the SPI EEPROM: We need a 520 byte

scratch DPRAM area. It is used between the two initialization

calls (spi_init_f() and spi_init_r()). A value of 0xB00 seems

to be a good choice since it makes it far enough from the

start of the data area as well as from the stack pointer.

若环境变量存放在 SPI EEPROM 中时定义 DPRAM 中 SPI 缓存区的偏移

Please note that the environment is read-only until the monitor

has been relocated to RAM and a RAM copy of the environment has been

created; also, when using EEPROM you will have to use getenv_r()

until then to read environment variables.

在监视器被重新分配到 RAM 和环境变量在 RAM 中拷贝以前,环境变量为只读

The environment is protected by a CRC32 checksum. Before the monitor

is relocated into RAM, as a result of a bad CRC you will be working

with the compiled-in default environment - *silently*!!! [This is

necessary, because the first environment variable we need is the

"baudrate" setting for the console - if we have a bad CRC, we don't

have any device yet where we could complain.]

Note: once the monitor has been relocated, then it will complain if

the default environment is used; a new CRC is computed as soon as you

use the "saveenv" command to store a valid environment.

- CFG_FAULT_ECHO_LINK_DOWN:

Echo the inverted Ethernet link state to the fault LED.

Note: If this option is active, then CFG_FAULT_MII_ADDR

also needs to be defined.

- CFG_FAULT_MII_ADDR:

MII address of the PHY to check for the Ethernet link state.

- CFG_64BIT_VSPRINTF:

Makes vsprintf (and all *printf functions) support printing

of 64bit values by using the L quantifier

- CFG_64BIT_STRTOUL:

Adds simple_strtoull that returns a 64bit value

Low Level (hardware related) configuration options:

底层配置选项(与硬件关联)

- CFG_CACHELINE_SIZE:

Cache Line Size of the CPU.

CPU Cache 大小

- CFG_DEFAULT_IMMR:

Default address of the IMMR after system reset.

系统重设后的 IMMR 默认地址

Needed on some 8260 systems (MPC8260ADS, PQ2FADS-ZU,

and RPXsuper) to be able to adjust the position of

the IMMR register after a reset.

-         Floppy Disk Support:

-         软盘支持

CFG_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER

the default drive number (default value 0)

默认驱动号,缺省为 0

CFG_ISA_IO_STRIDE

defines the spacing between FDC chipset registers

(default value 1)

FDC 芯片集寄存器间的空间

CFG_ISA_IO_OFFSET

defines the offset of register from address. It

depends on which part of the data bus is connected to

the FDC chipset. (default value 0)

寄存器的地址偏移,取决于 FDC 芯片集所连接的数据总线

If CFG_ISA_IO_STRIDE CFG_ISA_IO_OFFSET and

CFG_FDC_DRIVE_NUMBER are undefined, they take their

default value.

if CFG_FDC_HW_INIT is defined, then the function

fdc_hw_init() is called at the beginning of the FDC

setup. fdc_hw_init() must be provided by the board

source code. It is used to make hardware dependant

initializations.

若 CFG_FDC_HW_INIT 被定义,则板级源码中必须提供 fdc_hw_init() 的实现

-         CFG_IMMR:

Physical address of the Internal Memory.

内存物理地址

DO NOT CHANGE unless you know exactly what you're

doing! (11-4) [MPC8xx/82xx systems only]

仅 MPC8xx/82xx

- CFG_INIT_RAM_ADDR:

Start address of memory area that can be used for

initial data and stack;

用来初始化数据和堆栈的内存起始地址

please note that this must be

writable memory that is working WITHOUT special

initialization, i. e. you CANNOT use normal RAM which

will become available only after programming the

memory controller and running certain initialization

sequences.

你不能用通常的 RAM ,因为他们只要在设置内存控制器

及初始化后才可用

U-Boot uses the following memory types:

UBOOT 用一下几种内存

- MPC8xx and MPC8260: IMMR (internal memory of the CPU)

- MPC824X: data cache

- PPC4xx:  data cache

- CFG_GBL_DATA_OFFSET:

Offset of the initial data structure in the memory

area defined by CFG_INIT_RAM_ADDR.

内存中初始化数据结构的偏移地址

Usually

CFG_GBL_DATA_OFFSET is chosen such that the initial

data is located at the end of the available space

CFG_GBL_DATA_OFFSET 常选存在于可用空间末端的初始化数据

(sometimes written as (CFG_INIT_RAM_END -

CFG_INIT_DATA_SIZE), and the initial stack is just

below that area (growing from (CFG_INIT_RAM_ADDR +

CFG_GBL_DATA_OFFSET) downward.

Note:

On the MPC824X (or other systems that use the data

cache for initial memory) the address chosen for

CFG_INIT_RAM_ADDR is basically arbitrary - it must

point to an otherwise UNUSED address space between

the top of RAM and the start of the PCI space.

one, specify here. Note that the value must resolve

to something your driver can deal with.

- CFG_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0

- CFG_83XX_DDR_USES_CS0

Only for 83xx systems. If specified, then DDR should

be configured using CS0 and CS1 instead of CS2 and CS3.

- CONFIG_ETHER_ON_FEC[12]

Define to enable FEC[12] on a 8xx series processor.

- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY

Define to the hardcoded PHY address which corresponds

to the given FEC; i. e.

#define CONFIG_FEC1_PHY 4

means that the PHY with address 4 is connected to FEC1

When set to -1, means to probe for first available.

- CONFIG_FEC[12]_PHY_NORXERR

The PHY does not have a RXERR line (RMII only).

(so program the FEC to ignore it).

This command will print 4 bytes (10,11,12,13) each 500 ms.

=> mwc.l 100 12345678 10

This command will write 12345678 to address 100 all 10 ms.

This only takes effect if the memory commands are activated

globally (CONFIG_CMD_MEM).

- CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT

- CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT

[ARM only] If these variables are defined, then

certain low level initializations (like setting up

the memory controller) are omitted and/or U-Boot does

not relocate itself into RAM.

【仅对 ARM 】如果这些变量定义,则忽略一些底层初始化,

UBOOT 不重加载自己到 RAM

Normally these variables MUST NOT be defined. The

only exception is when U-Boot is loaded (to RAM) by

some other boot loader or by a debugger which

performs these initializations itself.

通常这些变量不要被定义,除非有 UBOOT 由

其他 BOOTLOADER 加载到 RAM ,并初始化

第二步

Building the Software:

编译软件

======================

Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments

and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support

all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all

(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we

recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)

which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.

UBOOT 已经在很多编译环境下编译成功,但我们不保证所有的交叉编译工具都能使用,如果发生问题,请用 ELDK 编译工具编译和测试 UBOOT

http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK

If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you

have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path.

若你不用本地环境,我们假设在你的路径下已经有了 GNU 的交叉编译工具。

In this case,

you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell.

这时你必须设置环境变量 CROSS_COMPILE

Note that no changes to the Makefile or any other source files are

necessary. For example using the ELDK on a 4xx CPU, please enter:

$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx-

$ export CROSS_COMPILE

U-Boot is intended to be simple to build. After installing the

sources you must configure U-Boot for one specific board type. This

is done by typing:

UBOOT 目标是容易编译。安装完源码后你必须为特定的板配置 UBOOT 。

如下:

make NAME_config

where "NAME_config" is the name of one of the existing configu-

rations; see the main Makefile for supported names.

"NAME_config" 是应经存在的配置,查看主 Makefile 或得支持的名字

Note: for some board special configuration names may exist; check if

additional information is available from the board vendor; for

instance, the TQM823L systems are available without (standard)

or with LCD support.

有一些特殊配置名已经存在,检查板供应商的附加信息是否已经存在

如 TQM823L 系统有带 LCD 和不带之分,都已存在配置名

You can select such additional "features"

when choosing the configuration, i. e.

make TQM823L_config

- will configure for a plain TQM823L, i. e. no LCD support

make TQM823L_LCD_config

- will configure for a TQM823L with U-Boot console on LCD

这两个配置命令都可以使用,但是前一个不配置 LCD 控制台

etc.

Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot

images ready for download to / installation on your system:

最后执行 "make all" , 你将得到一些 UBOOT 映像,用来下载或初始化你的系统。

- "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image

"u-boot.bin" 原始二进制映像

- "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format

"u-boot"ELF 二进制格式映像

-         "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format

"u-boot.srec" 摩托罗拉 S-Record 格式映像

By default the build is performed locally and the objects are saved

in the source directory. One of the two methods can be used to change

this behavior and build U-Boot to some external directory:

默认情况下,编译在本地执行,目标文件保存到原目录,若想改变编译目录可用以下方法

1.      Add O= to the make command line invocations:

在 make 命令行增加 O 标记

make O=/tmp/build distclean

make O=/tmp/build NAME_config

make O=/tmp/build all

2.      Set environment variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location:

设置环境变量指向希望的目录

export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build

make distclean

make NAME_config

make all

Note that the command line "O=" setting overrides the BUILD_DIR environment

variable.

第一方法的优先级高于第二方法

Please be aware that the Makefiles assume you are using GNU make, so

for instance on NetBSD you might need to use "gmake" instead of

native "make".

Makefiles 假定你使用 GNU 的 make ,比如在 NetBSD 上你应该用 gmake

If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need

to port U-Boot to your hardware platform.

若你的系统板没有列出来,那你将移植 UBOOT 到你的硬件平台上

To do this, follow these steps:

遵照一下步骤进行移植:

1.  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel

"Makefile" and to the "MAKEALL" script, using the existing

entries as examples.

依照已存在的入口在顶层 "Makefile" 和 "MAKEALL" 脚本中

增加你板子的配置选项

Note that here and at many other places

boards and other names are listed in alphabetical sort order. Please

keep this order.

板和其他名字都是按字母排序的,请遵照这种顺序

2.  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any

files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least

the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".

创建一个新的目录来保存你板子的代码,增加你需要的文件。

在你的目录里至少需要 "Makefile" 、 "<board>.c" 、 "flash.c" 、 "u-boot.lds"

3.  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for

your board

为你的板子创建一个新的配置文件 "include/configs/<board>.h"

3.  If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new

directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.

若你移植 UBOOT 到一个新的 CPU ,你还需建立一个新的目录

来保存你 CPU 的代码,和文件

4.  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.

用你的新名运行 "make <board>_config" ,

5.  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file

to be installed on your target system.

得到映像文件

6.  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.

[Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]

调试

Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.:

测试 UBOOT 的更改,移植到新的硬件

=============================================================

If you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board

or support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to

provide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes

the form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest

official or latest in the git repository) version of U-Boot sources.

如果你更改了 UBOOT 源码,并希望反馈给其他的开发者,

你可以以补丁的形式分发

But before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi-

cation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of

the supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so,

just run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot

for ALL supported system.

为确保你的更改没有错误,请执行 "MAKEALL" 脚本配置所有支持的系统

Be warned, this will take a while. You can

select which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE'

environment variable to the script, i. e. to use the ELDK cross tools

you can type

CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL

or to build on a native PowerPC system you can type

CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL

When using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build

U-Boot in the source directory. This location can be changed by

setting the BUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target

built, the MAKEALL script saves two log files (<target>.ERR and

<target>.MAKEALL) in the <source dir>/LOG directory. This default

location can be changed by setting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment

variable.

当执行 MAKEALL 脚本默认在 UBOOT 源目录生成日志文件

<target>.ERR 和 <target>.MAKEALL ,若要更改路径则需设置

MAKEALL_LOGDIR 环境变量

For example:

export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build

export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log

CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL

With the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build,

log files are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean

during the whole build process.

这样可以保持源码目录树的清洁

Monitor Commands - Detailed Description:

监控命令 — 详细说明

========================================

TODO.

For now: just type "help <command>".

Environment Variables:

环境变量

======================

U-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which

can be made persistent by saving to Flash memory.

Environment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using

"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv". Using "setenv"

without a value can be used to delete a variable from the

environment. As long as you don't save the environment you are

working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the

environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.

Some configuration options can be set using Environment Variables:

下面这些配置选项课通过环境变量来设置

baudrate    - see CONFIG_BAUDRATE

bootdelay  - see CONFIG_BOOTDELAY

bootcmd    - see CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND

bootargs    - Boot arguments when booting an RTOS image

bootfile      - Name of the image to load with TFTP

bootm_low       - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm

command can be restricted. This variable is given as

a hexadecimal number and defines lowest address allowed

for use by the bootm command.

定义了 bootm 命令的最低地址

See also "bootm_size"

environment variable. Address defined by "bootm_low" is

also the base of the initial memory mapping for the Linux

kernel -- see the description of CFG_BOOTMAPSZ.

也是 Linux 映像初始化内存映射的基址

bootm_size       - Memory range available for image processing in the bootm

command can be restricted. This variable is given as

a hexadecimal number and defines the size of the region

allowed for use by the bootm command.

定义了 bootm 命令的范围

See also "bootm_low"

environment variable.

autoload    - if set to "no" (any string beginning with 'n'),

"bootp" will just load perform a lookup of the

configuration from the BOOTP server, but not try to

load any image using TFTP

若设置为 "no" (任何以 'n' 开头的字符串), "bootp" 将只在 BOOTP 服务器查找映像,但不下载

autoscript  - if set to "yes" commands like "loadb", "loady",

"bootp", "tftpb", "rarpboot" and "nfs" will attempt

to automatically run script images (by internally

calling "autoscript").

若设置为 "yes" 则 "loadb", "loady","bootp", "tftpb",

"rarpboot" and "nfs" 将尝试自动运行脚本映像

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

"bootm")

若设置为 "yes" 则通过 "bootp","rarpboot", "tftpboot" or "diskboot"

命令下载的映像将自动开始

If set to "no", a standalone image passed to the

"bootm" command will be copied to the load address

(and eventually uncompressed), but NOT be started.

This can be used to load and uncompress arbitrary

data.

i2cfast       - (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)

if set to 'y' configures Linux I2C driver for fast

mode (400kHZ). This environment variable is used in

initialization code. So, for changes to be effective

it must be saved and board must be reset.

initrd_high  - restrict positioning of initrd images:

限制 initrd 镜像的位置

If this variable is not set, initrd images will be

copied to the highest possible address in RAM;

不设置的话就会放到 RAM 的最高地址

This is usually what you want since it allows for

maximum initrd size. If for some reason you want to

make sure that the initrd image is loaded below the

CFG_BOOTMAPSZ limit, you can set this environment

variable to a value of "no" or "off" or "0".

Alternatively, you can set it to a maximum upper

address to use (U-Boot will still check that it

does not overwrite the U-Boot stack and data).

For instance, when you have a system with 16 MB

RAM, and want to reserve 4 MB from use by Linux,

you can do this by adding "mem=12M" to the value of

the "bootargs" variable. However, now you must make

sure that the initrd image is placed in the first

12 MB as well - this can be done with

比如你有 16M RAM ,你想保留 4M ,则把 "mem=12M" 增加到

"bootargs" 环境变量,现在你必须保证 initrd 镜像被放置在开头

12M 的空间,你可以运行:

setenv initrd_high 00c00000

If you set initrd_high to 0xFFFFFFFF, this is an

indication to U-Boot that all addresses are legal

for the Linux kernel, including addresses in flash

memory. In this case U-Boot will NOT COPY the

ramdisk at all. This may be useful to reduce the

boot time on your system, but requires that this

feature is supported by your Linux kernel.

ipaddr       - IP address; needed for tftpboot command

tftpboot 命令会用到的 IP 地址

loadaddr    - Default load address for commands like "bootp",

"rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"

"bootp","rarpboot", "tftpboot", "loadb" or "diskboot"

命令的默认装载地址

loads_echo       - see CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO

serverip     - TFTP server IP address; needed for tftpboot command

TFTP 服务的 IP 地址

bootretry   - see CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME

bootdelaykey    - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR

bootstopkey     - see CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR

ethprime    - When CONFIG_NET_MULTI is enabled controls which

interface is used first.

ethact - When CONFIG_NET_MULTI is enabled controls which

interface is currently active.

激活哪个网络接口

For example you can do the following

=> setenv ethact FEC ETHERNET

=> ping 192.168.0.1 # traffic sent on FEC ETHERNET

=> setenv ethact SCC ETHERNET

=> ping 10.0.0.1 # traffic sent on SCC ETHERNET

ethrotate    - When set to "no" U-Boot does not go through all

available network interfaces.

若设置为 "no"UBOOT 将不会遍历所有的可用网络接口

It just stays at the currently selected interface.

netretry    - When set to "no" each network operation will

either succeed or fail without retrying.

网络操作不重试

When set to "once" the network operation will

fail when all the available network interfaces

are tried once without success.

Useful on scripts which control the retry operation

themselves.

npe_ucode       - see CONFIG_IXP4XX_NPE_EXT_UCOD

if set load address for the NPE microcode

tftpsrcport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's

UDP source port.

TFTP UDP 源端口

tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP

destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.

TFTP UDP 源端口目的端口

vlan         - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over

Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q

VLAN tagged frames.

The following environment variables may be used and automatically

updated by the network boot commands ("bootp" and "rarpboot"),

depending the information provided by your boot server:

bootfile      - see above

dnsip         - IP address of your Domain Name Server

dnsip2       - IP address of your secondary Domain Name Server

gatewayip  - IP address of the Gateway (Router) to use

hostname   - Target hostname

ipaddr       - see above

netmask     - Subnet Mask

rootpath    - Pathname of the root filesystem on the NFS server

serverip     - see above

There are two special Environment Variables:

serial#       - contains hardware identification information such

as type string and/or serial number

ethaddr      - Ethernet address

These variables can be set only once (usually during manufacturing of

the board). U-Boot refuses to delete or overwrite these variables

once they have been set once.

Further special Environment Variables:

ver            - Contains the U-Boot version string as printed

with the "version" command. This variable is

readonly (see CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE).

Please note that changes to some configuration parameters may take

only effect after the next boot (yes, that's just like Windoze :-).

Command Line Parsing:

命令行分析

=====================

There are two different command line parsers available with U-Boot:

UBOOT 支持两种不同的命令行

the old "simple" one, and the much more powerful "hush" shell:

Old, simple command line parser:

老而简单的

--------------------------------

- supports environment variables (through setenv / saveenv commands)

- several commands on one line, separated by ';'

同一行的多个命令用分号隔开

- variable substitution using "... ${name} ..." syntax

变量替换语法 "... ${name} ..."

-         special characters ('$', ';') can be escaped by prefixing with '/',

特殊字符前加 '/'

for example:

setenv bootcmd bootm /${address}

- You can also escape text by enclosing in single apostrophes, for example:

setenv addip 'setenv bootargs $bootargs ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname::off'

Hush shell:

Hush shell

-----------

-         similar to Bourne shell, with control structures like

-         同 Bourne shell 类似

if...then...else...fi, for...do...done; while...do...done,

until...do...done, ...

- supports environment ("global") variables (through setenv / saveenv

commands) and local shell variables (through standard shell syntax

"name=value"); only environment variables can be used with "run"

Command

支持环境变量和本地 shell 变量,只有环境变量才可用 "run" 命令

General rules:

--------------

(1) If a command line (or an environment variable executed by a "run"

command) contains several commands separated by semicolon, and

one of these commands fails, then the remaining commands will be

executed anyway.

(2) If you execute several variables with one call to run (i. e.

calling run with a list of variables as arguments), any failing

command will cause "run" to terminate, i. e. the remaining

variables are not executed.

Note for Redundant Ethernet Interfaces:

关于以太网接口

=======================================

Some boards come with redundant Ethernet interfaces; U-Boot supports

such configurations and is capable of automatic selection of a

"working" interface when needed. MAC assignment works as follows:

Network interfaces are numbered eth0, eth1, eth2, ... Corresponding

MAC addresses can be stored in the environment as "ethaddr" (=>eth0),

"eth1addr" (=>eth1), "eth2addr", ...

支持多网卡

If the network interface stores some valid MAC address (for instance

in SROM), this is used as default address if there is NO correspon-

ding setting in the environment; if the corresponding environment

variable is set, this overrides the settings in the card; that means:

o If the SROM has a valid MAC address, and there is no address in the

environment, the SROM's address is used.

o If there is no valid address in the SROM, and a definition in the

environment exists, then the value from the environment variable is

used.

o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and

both addresses are the same, this MAC address is used.

o If both the SROM and the environment contain a MAC address, and the

addresses differ, the value from the environment is used and a

warning is printed.

若网卡 SROM 中 MAC 地址和环境变量中的 MAC 地址不一样

则默认使用环境变量

o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error

is raised.

Image Formats:

映像格式

==============

U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on)

images in two formats:

New uImage format (FIT)

新 uImage 格式( FIT )

-----------------------

Flexible and powerful format based on Flattened Image Tree -- FIT (similar

to Flattened Device Tree). It allows the use of images with multiple

components (several kernels, ramdisks, etc.), with contents protected by

SHA1, MD5 or CRC32. More details are found in the doc/uImage.FIT directory.

更多细节请阅读 doc/uImage.FIT

Old uImage format

老 uImage 格式

-----------------

Old image format is based on binary files which can be basically anything,

preceded by a special header; see the definitions in include/image.h for

details; basically, the header defines the following image properties:

* Target Operating System (Provisions for OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD,

4.4BSD, Linux, SVR4, Esix, Solaris, Irix, SCO, Dell, NCR, VxWorks,

LynxOS, pSOS, QNX, RTEMS, ARTOS;

Currently supported: Linux, NetBSD, VxWorks, QNX, RTEMS, ARTOS, LynxOS).

* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, AVR32, Intel x86,

IA64, MIPS, NIOS, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit;

Currently supported: ARM, AVR32, Intel x86, MIPS, NIOS, PowerPC).

* Compression Type (uncompressed, gzip, bzip2)

* Load Address

* Entry Point

* Image Name

* Image Timestamp

The header is marked by a special Magic Number, and both the header

and the data portions of the image are secured against corruption by

CRC32 checksums.

Linux Support:

==============

Although U-Boot should support any OS or standalone application

easily, the main focus has always been on Linux during the design of

U-Boot.

U-Boot includes many features that so far have been part of some

special "boot loader" code within the Linux kernel. Also, any

"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image;

instead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation

serves several purposes:

- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone

applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the

Flash memory footprint)

- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because

lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot

- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd"

images; of course this also means that different kernel images can

be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't

have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just

change a file in your "initrd"). Also, a field-upgrade of the

software is easier now.

Linux HOWTO:

怎么移植 Linux

============

Porting Linux to U-Boot based systems:

---------------------------------------

U-Boot cannot save you from doing all the necessary modifications to

configure the Linux device drivers for use with your target hardware

(no, we don't intend to provide a full virtual machine interface to

Linux :-).

But now you can ignore ALL boot loader code (in arch/ppc/mbxboot).

Just make sure your machine specific header file (for instance

include/asm-ppc/tqm8xx.h) includes the same definition of the Board

Information structure as we define in include/u-boot.h, and make

sure that your definition of IMAP_ADDR uses the same value as your

U-Boot configuration in CFG_IMMR.

确保你机器的特殊头文件包含板卡的定义与在 include/u-boot.h 中的定义相同,

确保 IMAP_ADDR 定义和 UBOOT 中的 CFG_IMMR 定义相同

Configuring the Linux kernel:

配置 Linux 内核

-----------------------------

No specific requirements for U-Boot. Make sure you have some root

device (initial ramdisk, NFS) for your target system.

Building a Linux Image:

编译 Linux 内核

-----------------------

With U-Boot, "normal" build targets like "zImage" or "bzImage" are

not used. If you use recent kernel source, a new build target

"uImage" will exist which automatically builds an image usable by

U-Boot. Most older kernels also have support for a "pImage" target,

which was introduced for our predecessor project PPCBoot and uses a

100% compatible format.

编译成新的 "uImage" 目标格式

Example:

make TQM850L_config

make oldconfig

make dep

make uImage

The "uImage" build target uses a special tool (in 'tools/mkimage') to

encapsulate a compressed Linux kernel image with header    information,

CRC32 checksum etc. for use with U-Boot. This is what we are doing:

* build a standard "vmlinux" kernel image (in ELF binary format):

编译成标准 "vmlinux" 内核镜像

convert the kernel into a raw binary image:

转换为原始二进制映像

${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary /

-R .note -R .comment /

-S vmlinux linux.bin

compress the binary image:

压缩映像

gzip -9 linux.bin

package compressed binary image for U-Boot:

打包

mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip /

-a 0 -e 0 -n "Linux Kernel Image" /

-d linux.bin.gz uImage

The "mkimage" tool can also be used to create ramdisk images for use

with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or

combined into one file. "mkimage" encapsulates the images with a 64

byte header containing information about target architecture,

operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time

stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc.

"mkimage" can be called in two ways: to verify existing images and

print the header information, or to build new images.

"mkimage" 有两种调用方法

In the first form (with "-l" option) mkimage lists the information

contained in the header of an existing U-Boot image; this includes

checksum verification:

1 、打印头信息

tools/mkimage -l image

-l ==> list image header information

The second form (with "-d" option) is used to build a U-Boot image

from a "data file" which is used as image payload:

2 、把数据文件压缩成映像

tools/mkimage -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep /

-n name -d data_file image

-A ==> set architecture to 'arch'

-O ==> set operating system to 'os'

-T ==> set image type to 'type'

-C ==> set compression type 'comp'

-a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)

-e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)

-n ==> set image name to 'name'

-d ==> use image data from 'datafile'

Right now, all Linux kernels for PowerPC systems use the same load

address (0x00000000), but the entry point address depends on the

kernel version:

- 2.2.x kernels have the entry point at 0x0000000C,

- 2.3.x and later kernels have the entry point at 0x00000000.

So a typical call to build a U-Boot image would read:

-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' /

> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0 -e 0 /

> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/ppc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz /

> examples/uImage.TQM850L

Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L

Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000

Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)

Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB

Load Address: 0x00000000

Entry Point:  0x00000000

To verify the contents of the image (or check for corruption):

-> tools/mkimage -l examples/uImage.TQM850L

Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L

Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000

Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)

Data Size:    335725 Bytes = 327.86 kB = 0.32 MB

Load Address: 0x00000000

Entry Point:  0x00000000

NOTE: for embedded systems where boot time is critical you can trade

speed for memory and install an UNCOMPRESSED image instead: this

needs more space in Flash, but boots much faster since it does not

need to be uncompressed:

-> gunzip /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/ppc/coffboot/vmlinux.gz

-> tools/mkimage -n '2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L' /

> -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 /

> -d /opt/elsk/ppc_8xx/usr/src/linux-2.4.4/arch/ppc/coffboot/vmlinux /

> examples/uImage.TQM850L-uncompressed

Image Name:   2.4.4 kernel for TQM850L

Created:      Wed Jul 19 02:34:59 2000

Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)

Data Size:    792160 Bytes = 773.59 kB = 0.76 MB

Load Address: 0x00000000

Entry Point:  0x00000000

Similar you can build U-Boot images from a 'ramdisk.image.gz' file

when your kernel is intended to use an initial ramdisk:

-> tools/mkimage -n 'Simple Ramdisk Image' /

> -A ppc -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip /

> -d /LinuxPPC/images/SIMPLE-ramdisk.image.gz examples/simple-initrd

Image Name:   Simple Ramdisk Image

Created:      Wed Jan 12 14:01:50 2000

Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)

Data Size:    566530 Bytes = 553.25 kB = 0.54 MB

Load Address: 0x00000000

Entry Point:  0x00000000

Installing a Linux Image:

-------------------------

To downloading a U-Boot image over the serial (console) interface,

you must convert the image to S-Record format:

要从串口下载 UBOOT 映像,就要将其转换为 S-Record 格式

objcopy -I binary -O srec examples/image examples/image.srec

The 'objcopy' does not understand the information in the U-Boot

image header, so the resulting S-Record file will be relative to

address 0x00000000. To load it to a given address, you need to

specify the target address as 'offset' parameter with the 'loads'

command.

Example: install the image to address 0x40100000 (which on the

TQM8xxL is in the first Flash bank):

=> erase 40100000 401FFFFF

.......... done

Erased 8 sectors

=> loads 40100000

## Ready for S-Record download ...

~>examples/image.srec

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ...

...

15989 15990 15991 15992

[file transfer complete]

[connected]

## Start Addr = 0x00000000

You can check the success of the download using the 'iminfo' command;

this includes a checksum verification so you can be sure no data

corruption happened:

=> imi 40100000

## Checking Image at 40100000 ...

-----------

The "bootm" command is used to boot an application that is stored in

memory (RAM or Flash). In case of a Linux kernel image, the contents

of the "bootargs" environment variable is passed to the kernel as

parameters.

"bootargs" 环境变量将作为参数传递到内核

You can check and modify this variable using the

"printenv" and "setenv" commands:

=> printenv bootargs

bootargs=root=/dev/ram

=> setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.0.0.2:/LinuxPPC nfsaddrs=10.0.0.99:10.0.0.2

More About U-Boot Image Types:

更多 UBOOT 映像

------------------------------

U-Boot supports the following image types:

"Standalone Programs" are directly runnable in the environment

provided by U-Boot; it is expected that (if they behave

well) you can continue to work in U-Boot after return from

the Standalone Program.

"OS Kernel Images" are usually images of some Embedded OS which

will take over control completely. Usually these programs

will install their own set of exception handlers, device

drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot

expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU.

"RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their

parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is

being started.

"Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS

(Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like

RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want

to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot

server provides just a single image file, but you want to get

for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image.

"Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each

image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network

byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0".

Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by

one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to

a multiple of 4 bytes).

"Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like

U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to

flash memory.

"Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by

U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially

useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush)

as command interpreter.

Standalone HOWTO:

独立程序

=================

One of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and

run "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of

U-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services.

Two simple examples are included with the sources:

两个例子

"Hello World" Demo:

"Hello World" Demo:

-------------------

'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo

application; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot.

It's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it

like that:

=> loads

## Ready for S-Record download ...

~>examples/hello_world.srec

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...

[file transfer complete]

[connected]

## Start Addr = 0x00040004

=> go 40004 Hello World! This is a test.

## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...

Hello World

argc = 7

argv[0] = "40004"

argv[1] = "Hello"

argv[2] = "World!"

argv[3] = "This"

argv[4] = "is"

argv[5] = "a"

argv[6] = "test."

argv[7] = "<NULL>"

Hit any key to exit ...

## Application terminated, rc = 0x0

Another example, which demonstrates how to register a CPM interrupt

handler with the U-Boot code, can be found in 'examples/timer.c'.

Here, a CPM timer is set up to generate an interrupt every second.

The interrupt service routine is trivial, just printing a '.'

character, but this is just a demo program. The application can be

controlled by the following keys:

? - print current values og the CPM Timer registers

b - enable interrupts and start timer

e - stop timer and disable interrupts

q - quit application

=> loads

Minicom warning:

Minicom 警告

================

Over time, many people have reported problems when trying to use the

"minicom" terminal emulation program for serial download.

许多人报告说用 minicom 出错。

I (wd)

consider minicom to be broken, and recommend not to use it. Under

Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and

especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and

use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command).

建议在 Unix 下使用 C-Kermit

Nevertheless, if you absolutely want to use it try adding this

configuration to your "File transfer protocols" section:

Name         Program                Name U/D FullScr IO-Red. Multi

X  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -s      Y    U         Y        N       N

Y  kermit  /usr/bin/kermit -i -l %l -r      N    D        Y        N       N

NetBSD Notes:

=============

Starting at version 0.9.2, U-Boot supports NetBSD both as host

(build U-Boot) and target system (boots NetBSD/mpc8xx).

Building requires a cross environment; it is known to work on

NetBSD/i386 with the cross-powerpc-netbsd-1.3 package (you will also

need gmake since the Makefiles are not compatible with BSD make).

Note that the cross-powerpc package does not install include files;

attempting to build U-Boot will fail because <machine/ansi.h> is

missing.  This file has to be installed and patched manually:

# cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include

# mkdir powerpc

# ln -s powerpc machine

# cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h

# ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST

Native builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native

and U-Boot include files.

Booting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a

stage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel

proper. Loader sources will eventually appear in the NetBSD source

tree (probably in sys/arc/mpc8xx/stand/u-boot_stage2/); in the

meantime, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ppcboot_stage2.tar.gz

Implementation Internals:

=========================

The following is not intended to be a complete description of every

implementation detail. However, it should help to understand the

inner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom

hardware.

Initial Stack, Global Data:

---------------------------

The implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot

starts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to

system RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet).

This means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS

is not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working

at all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation

options for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU

models provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and

MPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be

locked as (mis-) used as memory, etc.

Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the

u-boot-users mailing list:

Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)?

From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com>

Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET)

...

Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it

is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not

require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness

is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of

necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's

beyond the scope of this list to explain the details, but you

can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and

operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals.

OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It

is another option for the system designer to use as an

initial stack/RAM area prior to SDRAM being available. Either

option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your

board designers haven't used it for something that would

cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not

used.

CFG_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere

with your processor/board/system design. The default value

you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in

walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger

than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set

it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources

that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in

start.S has been around a while and should work as is when

you get the config right.

-Chris Hallinan

DS4.COM, Inc.

It is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C

code for the initialization procedures:

* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt

to write it.

* Do not use any uninitialized global data (or implicitely initialized

as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali-

zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM).

* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like

that.

Having only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use

normal global data to share information beween the code. But it

turned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly

simplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all

functions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_

functions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of

the GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we

place a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we

reserve for this purpose.

When choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the

relevant  (E)ABI  specifications for the current architecture, and by

GCC's implementation.

For PowerPC, the following registers have specific use:

R1:  stack pointer

R2:  reserved for system use

R3-R4:   parameter passing and return values

R5-R10: parameter passing

R13:       small data area pointer

R30:       GOT pointer

R31:       frame pointer

(U-Boot also uses R14 as internal GOT pointer.)

==> U-Boot will use R2 to hold a pointer to the global data

Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the

address of the global data structure is known at compile time),

but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat

smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on

average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image,

624 text + 127 data).

On Blackfin, the normal C ABI (except for P5) is followed as documented here:

http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=application_binary_interface

==> U-Boot will use P5 to hold a pointer to the global data

On ARM, the following registers are used:

R0:  function argument word/integer result

R1-R3:   function argument word

R9:  GOT pointer

R10:       stack limit (used only if stack checking if enabled)

R11:       argument (frame) pointer

R12:       temporary workspace

R13:       stack pointer

R14:       link register

R15:       program counter

==> U-Boot will use R8 to hold a pointer to the global data

NOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope,

or current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much.

Memory Management:

------------------

U-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the

MMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection.

The available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory

controller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each

memory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several

physical memory banks.

U-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on

TQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After

booting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself

to the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some

memory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CFG_MALLOC_LEN

configuration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board

Info data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward).

Additionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB

of DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF).

So a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like

this:

0x0000 0000       Exception Vector code

:

0x0000 1FFF

0x0000 2000       Free for Application Use

:

:

:

:

0x00FB FF20      Monitor Stack (Growing downward)

0x00FB FFAC     Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data

0x00FC 0000      Malloc Arena

:

0x00FD FFFF

0x00FE 0000       RAM Copy of Monitor Code

...           eventually: LCD or video framebuffer

...           eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset)

0x00FF FFFF      [End of RAM]

System Initialization:

----------------------

In the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point

(on most PowerPC systems at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset

configuration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory.

To be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address.

To be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!)

initial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs

which provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked

part of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core,

the caches and the SIU.

Next, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a

preliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries

(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash

on 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is

programmed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a

simple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM

banks.

When there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of

different size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first

bank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address

0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create

contiguous memory starting from 0.

Then, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area

and allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board

Info data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM

pages, and the final stack is set up.

Only after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment;

until that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are

running from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a

new address in RAM.

Coding Standards:

-----------------

All contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel

coding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script

"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.  In sources

originating from U-Boot a style corresponding to "Lindent -pcs" (adding

spaces before parameters to function calls) is actually used.

Source files originating from a different project (for example the

MTD subsystem) are generally exempt from these guidelines and are not

reformated to ease subsequent migration to newer versions of those

sources.

Please note that U-Boot is implemented in C (and to some small parts in

Assembler); no C++ is used, so please do not use C++ style comments (//)

in your code.

Please also stick to the following formatting rules:

- remove any trailing white space

- use TAB characters for indentation, not spaces

- make sure NOT to use DOS '/r/n' line feeds

- do not add more than 2 empty lines to source files

- do not add trailing empty lines to source files

Submissions which do not conform to the standards may be returned

with a request to reformat the changes.

Submitting Patches:

-------------------

Since the number of patches for U-Boot is growing, we need to

establish some rules. Submissions which do not conform to these rules

may be rejected, even when they contain important and valuable stuff.

Patches shall be sent to the u-boot-users mailing list.

Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.

When you send a patch, please include the following information with

it:

* For bug fixes: a description of the bug and how your patch fixes

this bug. Please try to include a way of demonstrating that the

patch actually fixes something.

* For new features: a description of the feature and your

implementation.

* A CHANGELOG entry as plaintext (separate from the patch)

* For major contributions, your entry to the CREDITS file

* When you add support for a new board, don't forget to add this

board to the MAKEALL script, too.

* If your patch adds new configuration options, don't forget to

document these in the README file.

* The patch itself. If you are using git (which is *strongly*

recommended) you can easily generate the patch using the

"git-format-patch". If you then use "git-send-email" to send it to

the U-Boot mailing list, you will avoid most of the common problems

with some other mail clients.

If you cannot use git, use "diff -purN OLD NEW". If your version of

diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of

GNU diff.

The current directory when running this command shall be the parent

directory of the U-Boot source tree (i. e. please make sure that

your patch includes sufficient directory information for the

affected files).

We prefer patches as plain text. MIME attachments are discouraged,

and compressed attachments must not be used.

* If one logical set of modifications affects or creates several

files, all these changes shall be submitted in a SINGLE patch file.

* Changesets that contain different, unrelated modifications shall be

submitted as SEPARATE patches, one patch per changeset.

Notes:

* Before sending the patch, run the MAKEALL script on your patched

source tree and make sure that no errors or warnings are reported

for any of the boards.

* Keep your modifications to the necessary minimum: A patch

containing several unrelated changes or arbitrary reformats will be

returned with a request to re-formatting / split it.

* If you modify existing code, make sure that your new code does not

add to the memory footprint of the code ;-) Small is beautiful!

When adding new features, these should compile conditionally only

(using #ifdef), and the resulting code with the new feature

disabled must not need more memory than the old code without your

modification.

* Remember that there is a size limit of 40 kB per message on the

u-boot-users mailing list. Bigger patches will be moderated. If

they are reasonable and not bigger than 100 kB, they will be

acknowledged. Even bigger patches should be avoided.
