U-Boot supports a standard way of locating something to boot,
|
||||
typically an Operating System such as Linux, provided by a distro such
|
||||
as Arch Linux or Debian. Enable this to support iterating through
|
||||
available bootdevs and using bootmeths to find bootflows suitable for
|
||||
booting.
|
||||
|
||||
Standard boot is not a standard way of booting, just a framework
|
||||
within U-Boot for supporting all the different ways that exist.
|
||||
|
||||
Terminology:
|
||||
|
||||
- bootdev - a device which can hold a distro (e.g. MMC)
|
||||
- bootmeth - a method to scan a bootdev to find bootflows (owned by
|
||||
U-Boot)
|
||||
- bootflow - a description of how to boot (owned by the distro)

This enables various useful features for standard boot, which are not
|
||||
essential for operation:
|
||||
|
||||
- bootdev, bootmeth commands
|
||||
- extra features in the bootflow command
|
||||
- support for selecting the ordering of bootmeths ("bootmeth order")
|
||||
- support for selecting the ordering of bootdevs using the devicetree
|

as well as the "boot_targets" environment variable
