Where to get help:
==================
ICache only when Code runs from RAM.
- 85xx CPU Options:
+ CONFIG_SYS_PPC64
+
+ Specifies that the core is a 64-bit PowerPC implementation (implements
+ the "64" category of the Power ISA). This is necessary for ePAPR
+ compliance, among other possible reasons.
+
CONFIG_SYS_FSL_TBCLK_DIV
Defines the core time base clock divider ratio compared to the
CONFIG_CMD_EEPROM * EEPROM read/write support

- CONFIG_CMD_FAT * FAT partition support
+ CONFIG_CMD_FAT * FAT command support
CONFIG_CMD_FDOS * Dos diskette Support
CONFIG_CMD_FLASH flinfo, erase, protect
CONFIG_CMD_FPGA FPGA device initialization support
devices.
CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_CCF to fix clock timing (80Mhz)
+ The environment variable 'scsidevs' is set to the number of
+ SCSI devices found during the last scan.
+

CONFIG_E1000

CONFIG_LAN91C96_BASE
CONFIG_LAN91C96_USE_32_BIT
Define this to enable 32 bit addressing
- CONFIG_DRIVER_SMC91111
+ CONFIG_SMC91111
Support for SMSC's LAN91C111 chip
CONFIG_SMC91111_BASE
This will also enable the command "fatwrite" enabling the
user to write files to FAT.
+CBFS (Coreboot Filesystem) support
+ CONFIG_CMD_CBFS
+
+ Define this to enable support for reading from a Coreboot
+ filesystem. Available commands are cbfsinit, cbfsinfo, cbfsls
+ and cbfsload.
+
- Keyboard Support:
CONFIG_ISA_KEYBOARD
boot. See the documentation file README.video for a
description of this variable.
+ CONFIG_VIDEO_VGA
+
+ Enable the VGA video / BIOS for x86. The alternative if you
+ are using coreboot is to use the coreboot frame buffer
+ driver.
+
+
- Keyboard Support:
CONFIG_KEYBOARD
Normally display is black on white background; define
CONFIG_SYS_WHITE_ON_BLACK to get it inverted.
+ CONFIG_LCD_BMP_RLE8
+
+ Support drawing of RLE8-compressed bitmaps on the LCD.
+
+
- Splash Screen Support: CONFIG_SPLASH_SCREEN
If this option is set, the environment is checked for
following board configurations are known to be
"pRAM-clean":
- ETX094, IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
- HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON, LANTEC,
+ IVMS8, IVML24, SPD8xx, TQM8xxL,
+ HERMES, IP860, RPXlite, LWMON,
FLAGADM, TQM8260
+- Access to physical memory region (> 4GB)
+ Some basic support is provided for operations on memory not
+ normally accessible to U-Boot - e.g. some architectures
+ support access to more than 4GB of memory on 32-bit
+ machines using physical address extension or similar.
+ Define CONFIG_PHYSMEM to access this basic support, which
+ currently only supports clearing the memory.
+
- Error Recovery:
CONFIG_PANIC_HANG
- CONFIG_SYS_VENDOR
- CONFIG_SYS_SOC
+ CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
+
+ Define this in order to add variables describing certain
+ run-time determined information about the hardware to the
+ environment. These will be named board_name, board_rev.
+
- DataFlash Support:
CONFIG_HAS_DATAFLASH
-150 common/cmd_nand.c Incorrect FIT image format
151 common/cmd_nand.c FIT image format OK
+- FIT image support:
+ CONFIG_FIT
+ Enable support for the FIT uImage format.
+
+ CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
+ When no configuration is explicitly selected, default to the
+ one whose fdt's compatibility field best matches that of
+ U-Boot itself. A match is considered "best" if it matches the
+ most specific compatibility entry of U-Boot's fdt's root node.
+ The order of entries in the configuration's fdt is ignored.
+
- Standalone program support:
CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
TEXT_BASE for linking the SPL binary.
+ CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_TEXT_BASE
+ Address to relocate to. If unspecified, this is equal to
+ CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE (i.e. no relocation is done).
+
CONFIG_SPL_BSS_START_ADDR
Link address for the BSS within the SPL binary.
CONFIG_SPL_STACK
Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use
+ CONFIG_SPL_RELOC_STACK
+ Adress of the start of the stack SPL will use after
+ relocation. If unspecified, this is equal to
+ CONFIG_SPL_STACK.
+
CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START
Starting address of the malloc pool used in SPL.
For ARM, enable an optional function to print more information
about the running system.

CONFIG_SPL_LIBGENERIC_SUPPORT

+
Modem Support:
--------------
be used if available. These functions may be faster under some
conditions but may increase the binary size.
+- CONFIG_X86_NO_RESET_VECTOR
+ If defined, the x86 reset vector code is excluded. You will need
+ to do this when U-Boot is running from Coreboot.
+
+- CONFIG_X86_NO_REAL_MODE
+ If defined, x86 real mode code is omitted. This assumes a
