Summary:
========

This directory contains the source code for U-Boot, a boot loader for
Embedded boards based on PowerPC and ARM processors, which can be
installed in a boot ROM and used to initialize and test the hardware
or to download and run application code.

The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of
the source code originate in the Linux source tree, we have some
header files in common, and special provision has been made to
support booting of Linux images.

Some attention has been paid to make this software easily
configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are
implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to
add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used
code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can
load and run it dynamically.


Status:
=======

In general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the
Makefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered
"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems.

In case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out
who contributed the specific port.


Where to get help:
==================

In case you have questions about, problems with or contributions for
U-Boot you should send a message to the U-Boot mailing list at
<u-boot-users@lists.sourceforge.net>. There is also an archive of
previous traffic on the mailing list - please search the archive
before asking FAQ's. Please see
http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/u-boot-users/


Where we come from:
===================

- start from 8xxrom sources
- create PPCBoot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/ppcboot)
- clean up code
- make it easier to add custom boards
- make it possible to add other [PowerPC] CPUs
- extend functions, especially:
  * Provide extended interface to Linux boot loader
  * S-Record download
  * network boot
  * PCMCIA / CompactFLash / ATA disk / SCSI ... boot
- create ARMBoot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/armboot)
- add other CPU families (starting with ARM)
- create U-Boot project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/u-boot)


Names and Spelling:
===================

The "official" name of this project is "Das U-Boot". The spelling
"U-Boot" shall be used in all written text (documentation, comments
in source files etc.). Example:

	This is the README file for the U-Boot project.

File names etc. shall be based on the string "u-boot". Examples:

	include/asm-ppc/u-boot.h

	#include <asm/u-boot.h>

Variable names, preprocessor constants etc. shall be either based on
the string "u_boot" or on "U_BOOT". Example:

	U_BOOT_VERSION		u_boot_logo
	IH_OS_U_BOOT		u_boot_hush_start


Versioning:
===========

U-Boot uses a 3 level version number containing a version, a
sub-version, and a patchlevel: "U-Boot-2.34.5" means version "2",
sub-version "34", and patchlevel "4".

The patchlevel is used to indicate certain stages of development
between released versions, i. e. officially released versions of
U-Boot will always have a patchlevel of "0".

Software Configuration:
=======================

Configuration is usually done using C preprocessor defines; the
rationale behind that is to avoid dead code whenever possible.

There are two classes of configuration variables:

* Configuration _OPTIONS_:
  These are selectable by the user and have names beginning with
  "CONFIG_".

* Configuration _SETTINGS_:
  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_".

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.


Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
---------------------------------------------------

For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".

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.


Configuration Options:
----------------------

Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
such information is kept in a configuration file
"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:

- CPU Type:	Define exactly one of

		CONFIG_SHANNON,     CONFIG_SMDK2400,   CONFIG_SMDK2410,
		CONFIG_TRAB


- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
		Define exactly one of
		CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
--- 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

- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
		Define one or more of
		CONFIG_CMA302

- 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" |\-/|\-/

- MPC824X Family Member (if CONFIG_MPC824X is defined)
	Define exactly one of
	CONFIG_MPC8240, CONFIG_MPC8245

- 8xx CPU Options: (if using an 8xx cpu)
		Define one or more of
		CONFIG_8xx_GCLK_FREQ	- if get_gclk_freq() can not work e.g.
					  no 32KHz reference PIT/RTC clock

- Clock Interface:
		CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ

		U-Boot stores all clock information in Hz
		internally. For binary compatibility with older Linux
		kernels (which expect the clocks passed in the
		bd_info data to be in MHz) the environment variable
		"clocks_in_mhz" can be defined so that U-Boot
		converts clock data to MHZ before passing it to the
		Linux kernel.

		When CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ is defined, a definition of
		"clocks_in_mhz=1" is  automatically  included  in  the
		default environment.

- Console Interface:
		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

		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. 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)
			VIDEO_HW_BITBLT		graphic chip supports
						bit-blit (cf. smiLynxEM)
			VIDEO_VISIBLE_COLS	visible pixel columns
						(cols=pitch)
			VIDEO_VISIBLE_ROWS      visible pixel rows
			VIDEO_PIXEL_SIZE        bytes per pixel
			VIDEO_DATA_FORMAT	graphic data format
						(0-5, cf. cfb_console.c)
			VIDEO_FB_ADRS           framebuffer address
			VIDEO_KBD_INIT_FCT	keyboard int fct
						(i.e. i8042_kbd_init())
			VIDEO_TSTC_FCT		test char fct
						(i.e. i8042_tstc)
			VIDEO_GETC_FCT		get char fct
						(i.e. i8042_getc)
			CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR	cursor drawing on/off
						(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 CFG_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
						addional board info beside
						the logo

		When CONFIG_CFB_CONSOLE is defined, video console is
		default i/o. Serial console can be forced with
		environment 'console=serial'.

- Console Baudrate:
		CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
		Select one of the baudrates listed in
		CFG_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.

- Interrupt driven serial port input:
		CONFIG_SERIAL_SOFTWARE_FIFO

		PPC405GP only.
		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.

		Set to 0 to disable this feature (this is the default).
		This will also disable hardware handshake.

- Boot Delay:	CONFIG_BOOTDELAY - in seconds
		Delay before automatically booting the default image;
		set to -1 to disable autoboot.

		See doc/README.autoboot for these options that
		work with CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. None are required.
		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_TIME
		CONFIG_BOOT_RETRY_MIN
		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT
		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR
		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR
		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_DELAY_STR2
		CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_STOP_STR2
		CONFIG_ZERO_BOOTDELAY_CHECK
		CONFIG_RESET_TO_RETRY

- Autoboot Command:
		CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
		Only needed when CONFIG_BOOTDELAY is enabled;
		define a command string that is automatically executed
		when no character is read on the console interface
		within "Boot Delay" after reset.

		CONFIG_BOOTARGS
		This can be used to pass arguments to the bootm
		command. The value of CONFIG_BOOTARGS goes into the
		environment value "bootargs".

		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.

- 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:
		CONFIG_LOADS_ECHO
		If defined to 1, all characters received during a
		serial download (using the "loads" command) are
		echoed back. 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.

- Kgdb Serial Baudrate: (if CFG_CMD_KGDB is defined)
		CONFIG_KGDB_BAUDRATE
		Select one of the baudrates listed in
		CFG_BAUDRATE_TABLE, see below.

- Monitor Functions:
		CONFIG_COMMANDS
		Most monitor functions can be selected (or
		de-selected) by adjusting the definition of
		CONFIG_COMMANDS; to select individual functions,
		#define CONFIG_COMMANDS by "OR"ing any of the
		following values:

		#define enables commands:
		-------------------------
		CFG_CMD_ASKENV	* ask for env variable
		CFG_CMD_BDI	  bdinfo
		CFG_CMD_BEDBUG	  Include BedBug Debugger
		CFG_CMD_BOOTD	  bootd
		CFG_CMD_CACHE	  icache, dcache
		CFG_CMD_CONSOLE	  coninfo
		CFG_CMD_DATE	* support for RTC, date/time...
		CFG_CMD_DHCP	  DHCP support
		CFG_CMD_ECHO	* echo arguments
		CFG_CMD_EEPROM	* EEPROM read/write support
		CFG_CMD_ELF	  bootelf, bootvx
		CFG_CMD_ENV	  saveenv
		CFG_CMD_FDC	* Floppy Disk Support
		CFG_CMD_FDOS	* Dos diskette Support
		CFG_CMD_FLASH	  flinfo, erase, protect
		CFG_CMD_FPGA	  FPGA device initialization support
		CFG_CMD_I2C	* I2C serial bus support
		CFG_CMD_IDE	* IDE harddisk support
		CFG_CMD_IMI	  iminfo
		CFG_CMD_IMMAP	* IMMR dump support
		CFG_CMD_IRQ	* irqinfo
		CFG_CMD_KGDB	* kgdb
		CFG_CMD_LOADB	  loadb
		CFG_CMD_LOADS	  loads
		CFG_CMD_MEMORY	  md, mm, nm, mw, cp, cmp, crc, base,
				  loop, mtest
		CFG_CMD_MII	  MII utility commands
		CFG_CMD_NET	  bootp, tftpboot, rarpboot
		CFG_CMD_PCI	* pciinfo
		CFG_CMD_PCMCIA	* PCMCIA support
		CFG_CMD_REGINFO * Register dump
		CFG_CMD_RUN	  run command in env variable
		CFG_CMD_SCSI	* SCSI Support
		CFG_CMD_SETGETDCR Support for DCR Register access (4xx only)
		CFG_CMD_SPI	* SPI serial bus support
		CFG_CMD_USB	* USB support
		CFG_CMD_BSP	* Board SPecific functions
		-----------------------------------------------
		CFG_CMD_ALL	all

		CFG_CMD_DFL	Default configuration; at the moment
				this is includes all commands, except
				the ones marked with "*" in the list
				above.

		If you don't define CONFIG_COMMANDS it defaults to
		CFG_CMD_DFL in include/cmd_confdefs.h. A board can
		override the default settings in the respective
		include file.

		EXAMPLE: If you want all functions except of network
		support you can write:

		#define CONFIG_COMMANDS (CFG_CMD_ALL & ~CFG_CMD_NET)


	Note:	Don't enable the "icache" and "dcache" commands
		(configuration option CFG_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:
		CONFIG_WATCHDOG
		If this variable is defined, it enables watchdog
		support. There must 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:
		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.

- Real-Time Clock:

		When CFG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
		has to be selected, too. Define exactly one of the
		following options:

		CONFIG_RTC_MPC8xx	- use internal RTC of MPC8xx
		CONFIG_RTC_PCF8563	- use Philips PCF8563 RTC
		CONFIG_RTC_MC146818	- use MC146818 RTC
		CONFIG_RTC_DS1307	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1307 RTC
		CONFIG_RTC_DS1337	- use Maxim, Inc. DS1337 RTC
		CONFIG_RTC_DS164x	- use Dallas DS164x RTC

- Timestamp Support:

		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 CFG_CMD_DATE .

- Partition Support:
		CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION and/or CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION
		and/or CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION

		If IDE or SCSI support	is  enabled  (CFG_CMD_IDE  or
		CFG_CMD_SCSI) you must configure support for at least
		one partition type as well.

- IDE Reset method:
