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.

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 |

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; |

262 263 264 265 266 267 268 269 270 271 272 273 274 |
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". |

CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 Enables a workaround for erratum A004510. If set, then CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV and CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY must be set. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510_SVR_REV2 (optional) Defines one or two SoC revisions (low 8 bits of SVR) for which the A004510 workaround should be applied. The rest of SVR is either not relevant to the decision of whether the erratum is present (e.g. p2040 versus p2041) or is implied by the build target, which controls whether CONFIG_SYS_FSL_ERRATUM_A004510 is set. See Freescale App Note 4493 for more information about this erratum. CONFIG_SYS_FSL_CORENET_SNOOPVEC_COREONLY This is the value to write into CCSR offset 0x18600 according to the A004510 workaround. |

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. |

CONFIG_OF_IDE_FIXUP U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. |

Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded. Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to buffer any console messages prior to the console being initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ |

- 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. |

- Device tree: CONFIG_OF_CONTROL If this variable is defined, U-Boot will use a device tree to configure its devices, instead of relying on statically compiled #defines in the board file. This option is experimental and only available on a few boards. The device tree is available in the global data as gd->fdt_blob. |

U-Boot needs to get its device tree from somewhere. This can be done using one of the two options below: |

887 888 889 890 891 892 893 |
CONFIG_OF_EMBED If this variable is defined, U-Boot will embed a device tree binary in its image. This device tree file should be in the board directory and called <soc>-<board>.dts. The binary file is then picked up in board_init_f() and made available through the global data structure as gd->blob. |

CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE If this variable is defined, U-Boot will build a device tree binary. It will be called u-boot.dtb. Architecture-specific code will locate it at run-time. Generally this works by: cat u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb >image.bin and in fact, U-Boot does this for you, creating a file called u-boot-dtb.bin which is useful in the common case. You can still use the individual files if you need something more exotic. |

support for the SoC. There must be support in the SoC specific code for a watchdog. For the 8xx and 8260 CPUs, the SIU Watchdog feature is enabled in the SYPCR register. When supported for a specific SoC is available, then no further board specific code should be needed to use it. CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG When using a watchdog circuitry external to the used SoC, then define this variable and provide board specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function. |

- ULPI Layer Support: The ULPI (UTMI Low Pin (count) Interface) PHYs are supported via the generic ULPI layer. The generic layer accesses the ULPI PHY via the platform viewport, so you need both the genric layer and the viewport enabled. Currently only Chipidea/ARC based viewport is supported. To enable the ULPI layer support, define CONFIG_USB_ULPI and CONFIG_USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT in your board configuration file. |

CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT Normally the LCD is page-aligned (tyically 4KB). If this is defined then the LCD will be aligned to this value instead. For ARM it is sometimes useful to use MMU_SECTION_SIZE here, since it is cheaper to change data cache settings on a per-section basis. |

CONFIG_SPLASHIMAGE_GUARD If this option is set, then U-Boot will prevent the environment variable "splashimage" from being set to a problematic address (see README.displaying-bmps and README.arm-unaligned-accesses). This option is useful for targets where, due to alignment restrictions, an improperly aligned BMP image will cause a data abort. If you think you will not have problems with unaligned accesses (for example because your toolchain prevents them) there is no need to set this option. |

CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN_ALIGN If this option is set the splash image can be freely positioned on the screen. Environment variable "splashpos" specifies the position as "x,y". If a positive number is given it is used as number of pixel from left/top. If a negative number is given it is used as number of pixel from right/bottom. You can also specify 'm' for centering the image. Example: setenv splashpos m,m => image at center of screen setenv splashpos 30,20 => image at x = 30 and y = 20 setenv splashpos -10,m => vertically centered image at x = dspWidth - bmpWidth - 9 |

CONFIG_LZMA If this option is set, support for lzma compressed images is included. Note: The LZMA algorithm adds between 2 and 4KB of code and it requires an amount of dynamic memory that is given by the formula: (1846 + 768 << (lc + lp)) * sizeof(uint16) Where lc and lp stand for, respectively, Literal context bits and Literal pos bits. This value is upper-bounded by 14MB in the worst case. Anyway, for a ~4MB large kernel image, we have lc=3 and lp=0 for a total amount of (1846 + 768 << (3 + 0)) * 2 = ~41KB... that is a very small buffer. Use the lzmainfo tool to determinate the lc and lp values and then calculate the amount of needed dynamic memory (ensuring |

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. |

- Link-local IP address negotiation: Negotiate with other link-local clients on the local network for an address that doesn't require explicit configuration. This is especially useful if a DHCP server cannot be guaranteed to exist in all environments that the device must operate. See doc/README.link-local for more information. |

- Status 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: 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: CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C |

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. |

If this option is defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init() is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address). |

Example: Adding a new I2C Bus reached over 2 pca9544a muxes The First mux with address 70 and channel 6 The Second mux with address 71 and channel 4 => i2c bus pca9544a:70:6:pca9544a:71:4 Use the "i2c bus" command without parameter, to get a list of I2C Busses with muxes: => i2c bus Busses reached over muxes: Bus ID: 2 reached over Mux(es): pca9544a@70 ch: 4 Bus ID: 3 reached over Mux(es): pca9544a@70 ch: 6 pca9544a@71 ch: 4 => If you now switch to the new I2C Bus 3 with "i2c dev 3" |

CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_READ_REPEATED_START defining this will force the i2c_read() function in the soft_i2c driver to perform an I2C repeated start between writing the address pointer and reading the data. If this define is omitted the default behaviour of doing a stop-start sequence will be used. Most I2C devices can use either method, but some require one or the other. |

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. |

- Protected RAM: CONFIG_PRAM Define this variable to enable the reservation of "protected RAM", i. e. RAM which is not overwritten by U-Boot. Define CONFIG_PRAM to hold the number of kB you want to reserve for pRAM. 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: |

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: |

- Detailed boot stage timing CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE Define this option to get detailed timing of each stage of the boot process. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_USER_COUNT This is the number of available user bootstage records. Each time you call bootstage_mark(BOOTSTAGE_ID_ALLOC, ...) a new ID will be allocated from this stash. If you exceed the limit, recording will stop. CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT Define this to print a report before boot, similar to this: Timer summary in microseconds: Mark Elapsed Stage 0 0 reset 3,575,678 3,575,678 board_init_f start 3,575,695 17 arch_cpu_init A9 3,575,777 82 arch_cpu_init done 3,659,598 83,821 board_init_r start 3,910,375 250,777 main_loop 29,916,167 26,005,792 bootm_start 30,361,327 445,160 start_kernel |

CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage' node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds. For example: bootstage { 154 { name = "board_init_f"; mark = <3575678>; }; 170 { name = "lcd"; accum = <33482>; }; }; Code in the Linux kernel can find this in /proc/devicetree. |

Board initialization settings: ------------------------------ During Initialization u-boot calls a number of board specific functions to allow the preparation of board specific prerequisites, e.g. pin setup before drivers are initialized. To enable these callbacks the following configuration macros have to be defined. Currently this is architecture specific, so please check arch/your_architecture/lib/board.c typically in board_init_f() and board_init_r(). - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F: Call board_early_init_f() - CONFIG_BOARD_EARLY_INIT_R: Call board_early_init_r() - CONFIG_BOARD_LATE_INIT: Call board_late_init() - CONFIG_BOARD_POSTCLK_INIT: Call board_postclk_init() |

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. |

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 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. |

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.

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. |

It is therefore not necessary to regard U-Boot address as virtual addresses that need to be translated to physical addresses. However, sandbox requires this, since it maintains its own little RAM buffer which contains all addressable memory. This option causes some memory accesses to be mapped through map_sysmem() / unmap_sysmem(). |

Freescale QE/FMAN Firmware Support: ----------------------------------- The Freescale QUICCEngine (QE) and Frame Manager (FMAN) both support the loading of "firmware", which is encoded in the QE firmware binary format. This firmware often needs to be loaded during U-Boot booting, so macros are used to identify the storage device (NOR flash, SPI, etc) and the address within that device. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_ADDR The address in the storage device where the firmware is located. The meaning of this address depends on which CONFIG_SYS_QE_FW_IN_xxx macro is also specified. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_LENGTH The maximum possible size of the firmware. The firmware binary format has a field that specifies the actual size of the firmware, but it might not be possible to read any part of the firmware unless some local storage is allocated to hold the entire firmware first. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NOR Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NOR flash, mapped as normal addressable memory via the LBC. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the virtual address in NOR flash. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_NAND Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located in NAND flash. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the offset within NAND flash. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_MMC Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SD/MMC device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. - CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_SPIFLASH Specifies that QE/FMAN firmware is located on the primary SPI device. CONFIG_SYS_FMAN_FW_ADDR is the byte offset on that device. |

3602 3603 3604 3605 3606 3607 |
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. |

If you are not using a native environment, it is assumed that you have GNU cross compiling tools available in your path. In this case, you must set the environment variable CROSS_COMPILE in your shell. 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: |

Note: If you wish to generate Windows versions of the utilities in the tools directory you can use the MinGW toolchain (http://www.mingw.org). Set your HOST tools to the MinGW toolchain and execute 'make tools'. For example: $ make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools Binaries such as tools/mkimage.exe will be created which can be executed on computers running Windows. |

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 etc. Finally, type "make all", and you should get some working U-Boot images ready for download to / installation on your system: - "u-boot.bin" is a raw binary image - "u-boot" is an image in ELF binary format - "u-boot.srec" is in Motorola S-Record format |

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

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". If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel |
4d675ae6e README: supported... |
3686 3687 |
"boards.cfg" file, using the existing entries as examples. Follow the instructions there to keep the boards in order. |

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". 3. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for your board 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. 4. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name. 5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file to be installed on your target system. 6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] Testing of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: ============================================================== |

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. For example: |

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. |

For example, if you have a system with 1 GB memory at physical address 0x10000000, while Linux kernel only recognizes the first 704 MB as low memory, you may need to set fdt_high as 0x3C000000 to have the device tree blob be copied to the maximum address of the 704 MB low memory, so that Linux kernel can access it during the boot procedure. |

If this is set to the special value 0xFFFFFFFF then the fdt will not be copied at all on boot. For this to work it must reside in writable memory, have sufficient padding on the end of it for u-boot to add the information it needs into it, and the memory must be accessible by the kernel. |

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 |

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. |

The following image location variables contain the location of images used in booting. The "Image" column gives the role of the image and is not an environment variable name. The other columns are environment variable names. "File Name" gives the name of the file on a TFTP server, "RAM Address" gives the location in RAM the image will be loaded to, and "Flash Location" gives the image's address in NOR flash or offset in NAND flash. *Note* - these variables don't have to be defined for all boards, some boards currenlty use other variables for these purposes, and some boards use these variables for other purposes. |

Callback functions for environment variables: --------------------------------------------- For some environment variables, the behavior of u-boot needs to change when their values are changed. This functionailty allows functions to be associated with arbitrary variables. On creation, overwrite, or deletion, the callback will provide the opportunity for some side effect to happen or for the change to be rejected. The callbacks are named and associated with a function using the U_BOOT_ENV_CALLBACK macro in your board or driver code. These callbacks are associated with variables in one of two ways. The static list can be added to by defining CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_STATIC in the board configuration to a string that defines a list of associations. The list must be in the following format: entry = variable_name[:callback_name] list = entry[,list] If the callback name is not specified, then the callback is deleted. Spaces are also allowed anywhere in the list. Callbacks can also be associated by defining the ".callbacks" variable with the same list format above. Any association in ".callbacks" will override any association in the static list. You can define CONFIG_ENV_CALLBACK_LIST_DEFAULT to a list (string) to define the ".callbacks" envirnoment variable in the default or embedded environment. |

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: |

U-Boot is capable of booting (and performing other auxiliary operations on) images in two formats: New uImage format (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. Old uImage format ----------------- 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: |

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 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. |

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. 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): * convert the kernel into a raw binary image: ${CROSS_COMPILE}-objcopy -O binary \ -R .note -R .comment \ -S vmlinux linux.bin * compress the binary image: gzip -9 linux.bin * package compressed binary image for U-Boot: 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. 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: |

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 \ |

Boot Linux and pass a flat device tree: ----------- First, U-Boot must be compiled with the appropriate defines. See the section titled "Linux Kernel Interface" above for a more in depth explanation. The following is an example of how to start a kernel and pass an updated flat device tree: => print oftaddr oftaddr=0x300000 => print oft oft=oftrees/mpc8540ads.dtb => tftp $oftaddr $oft Speed: 1000, full duplex Using TSEC0 device TFTP from server 192.168.1.1; our IP address is 192.168.1.101 Filename 'oftrees/mpc8540ads.dtb'.

More About U-Boot Image Types: ------------------------------ 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: ================= 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: "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 ## Ready for S-Record download ... ~>examples/timer.srec 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...

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 |

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. |

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 |

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 |

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). |

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 |

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: ---------------------- |

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.

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. |

* 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. |
