+ In this mode, a single differential clock is used to supply
+ clocks to the sysclock, ddrclock and usbclock.
- Generic CPU options:
CONFIG_SYS_BIG_ENDIAN, CONFIG_SYS_LITTLE_ENDIAN
Defines the endianess of the CPU. Implementation of those
values is arch specific.
+ CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR
+ Freescale DDR driver in use. This type of DDR controller is
+ found in mpc83xx, mpc85xx, mpc86xx as well as some ARM core
+ SoCs.
+

+
+ CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDRC_ARM_GEN3
+ Freescale DDR3 controller for ARM-based SoCs.
+
+ CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR1
+ Board config to use DDR1. It can be enabled for SoCs with
+ Freescale DDR1 or DDR2 controllers, depending on the board
+ implemetation.
+
+ CONFIG_SYS_FSL_DDR2
+ Board config to use DDR2. It can be eanbeld for SoCs with
+ Freescale DDR2 or DDR3 controllers, depending on the board
+ implementation.

+
- Intel Monahans options:
CONFIG_SYS_MONAHANS_RUN_MODE_OSC_RATIO
the "silent" environment variable. See
doc/README.silent for more information.
+ CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BG_COL: define the backgroundcolor, default
+ is 0x00.
+ CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_FG_COL: define the foregroundcolor, default
+ is 0xa0.
+
- Console Baudrate:
CONFIG_BAUDRATE - in bps
Select one of the baudrates listed in
as a convenience, when switching between booting from
RAM and NFS.
+- Bootcount:
+ CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_LIMIT
+ Implements a mechanism for detecting a repeating reboot
+ cycle, see:
+ http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootBootCountLimit
+
+ CONFIG_BOOTCOUNT_ENV
+ If no softreset save registers are found on the hardware
+ "bootcount" is stored in the environment. To prevent a
+ saveenv on all reboots, the environment variable
+ "upgrade_available" is used. If "upgrade_available" is
+ 0, "bootcount" is always 0, if "upgrade_available" is
+ 1 "bootcount" is incremented in the environment.
+ So the Userspace Applikation must set the "upgrade_available"
+ and "bootcount" variable to 0, if a boot was successfully.
+
- Pre-Boot Commands:
CONFIG_PREBOOT
CONFIG_CMD_ELF * bootelf, bootvx

- If this variable is defined, U-Boot is linked against
- the SLRE (Super Light Regular Expression) library,
- which adds regex support to some commands, as for
- example "env grep" and "setexpr".
