U-boot源码 ARM7启动代码

		Defining this option enables DataFlash features and
		allows to read/write in Dataflash via the standard
		commands cp, md...

- 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 alsh 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:
		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.

		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.

		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:
		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:

Modem Support:
--------------

[so far only for SMDK2400 and TRAB boards]

- Modem support endable:
		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):

		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() fuction 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
		supressed, though.

		See also: doc/README.Modem


Configuration Settings:
-----------------------

- CFG_LONGHELP: Defined when you want long help messages included;
		undefine this when you're short of memory.

- CFG_PROMPT:	This is what U-Boot prints on the console to
		prompt for user input.

- CFG_CBSIZE:	Buffer size for input from the Console

- CFG_PBSIZE:	Buffer size for Console output

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

- CFG_BARGSIZE: Buffer size for Boot Arguments which are passed to
		the application (usually a Linux kernel) when it is
		booted

- CFG_BAUDRATE_TABLE:
		List of legal baudrate settings for this board.

- CFG_CONSOLE_INFO_QUIET
		Suppress display of console information at boot.

- 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.

- CFG_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE
		Enable the call to overwrite_console().

- CFG_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE
		Enable overwrite of previous console environment settings.

- CFG_MEMTEST_START, CFG_MEMTEST_END:
		Begin and End addresses of the area used by the
		simple memory test.

- 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_TFTP_LOADADDR:
		Default load address for network file downloads

- CFG_LOADS_BAUD_CHANGE:
		Enable temporary baudrate change while serial download

- CFG_SDRAM_BASE:
		Physical start address of SDRAM. _Must_ be 0 here.

- CFG_MBIO_BASE:
		Physical start address of Motherboard I/O (if using a
		Cogent motherboard)

- CFG_FLASH_BASE:
		Physical start address of Flash memory.

- CFG_MONITOR_BASE:
		Physical start address of boot monitor code (set by
		make config files to be same as the text base address
		(TEXT_BASE) used when linking) - same as
		CFG_FLASH_BASE when booting from flash.

- CFG_MONITOR_LEN:
		Size of memory reserved for monitor code, used to
		determine _at_compile_time_ (!) if the environment is
		embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate
		flash sector.

- CFG_MALLOC_LEN:
		Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.

- 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.

- 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, eventually
		initrd image) must be put below this limit.

- CFG_MAX_FLASH_BANKS:
		Max number of Flash memory banks

- CFG_MAX_FLASH_SECT:
		Max number of sectors on a Flash chip

- CFG_FLASH_ERASE_TOUT:
		Timeout for Flash erase operations (in ms)

- CFG_FLASH_WRITE_TOUT:
		Timeout for Flash write operations (in ms)

- CFG_FLASH_LOCK_TOUT
		Timeout for Flash set sector lock bit operation (in ms)

- CFG_FLASH_UNLOCK_TOUT
		Timeout for Flash clear lock bits operation (in ms)

- CFG_FLASH_PROTECTION
		If defined, hardware flash sectors protection is used
		instead of U-Boot software protection.

- CFG_DIRECT_FLASH_TFTP:

		Enable TFTP transfers directly to flash memory;
		without this option such a download has to be
		performed in two steps: (1) download to RAM, and (2)
		copy from RAM to 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 sytem RAM is
		too limited to allow for a tempory copy of the
		downloaded image) this option may be very useful.

- 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
		in the drivers directory

- CFG_FLASH_QUIET_TEST
		If this option is defined, the common CFI flash doesn't
		print it's warning upon not recognized FLASH banks. This
		is useful, if some of the configured banks are only
		optionally available.

- CFG_RX_ETH_BUFFER:
		Defines the number of ethernet receive buffers. 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); in general, we support the
following configurations:

- CFG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH:

	Define this if the environment is in flash memory.

	a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
	   "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. 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.

	- 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).

	- CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:

	   Size of the sector containing the environment.


	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.

	   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. It should be pointed out that this is
	   STRONGLY DISCOUR
