| CONFIG_ARCH_X86 || "X86 is the default" || 1 || always ||  
| LOCALVERSION || toplevel || string || Local version string ||
Append an extra string to the end of the coreboot version.
 
This can be useful if, for instance, you want to append the
respective board's hostname or some other identifying string to
the coreboot version number, so that you can easily distinguish
boot logs of different boards from each other.

Execute VGA option ROMs, if found. This is required to enable
PCI/AGP/PCI-E video cards.

| PCI_ROM_RUN || devices || bool || Run non-VGA option ROMs ||
Execute non-VGA PCI option ROMs, if found.
 
Examples include IDE/SATA controller option ROMs and option ROMs
for network cards (NICs).
 
||
|- bgcolor="#eeeeee"
|- bgcolor="#eeeeee"
| CONFIG_CHIP_CONFIGURE || "Use new chip_configure method for configuring (non-pci) devices" || 0 || used ||  
| PCI_OPTION_ROM_RUN_REALMODE || devices || bool || Real mode ||  
If you select this option, PCI option ROMs will be executed
natively on the CPU in real mode. No CPU emulation is involved,
so this is the fastest, but also the least secure option.
(only works on x86/x64 systems)
 
||
|- bgcolor="#eeeeee"
|- bgcolor="#eeeeee"
| CONFIG_USE_INIT || "Use stage 1 initialization code" || 0 || always ||  
| PCI_OPTION_ROM_RUN_X86EMU || devices || bool || x86emu ||
If you select this option, the x86emu CPU emulator will be used to
execute PCI option ROMs.
When choosing this option, x86emu will pass through all hardware
accesses to memory and IO devices to the underlying memory and IO
addresses. While this option prevents option ROMs from doing dirty
tricks with the CPU (such as installing SMM modules or hypervisors),
they can still access all devices in the system.
Choosing x86emu, option ROM execution is slower than native execution
in real mode, but faster than the full system emulation YABEL
This is the default choice for non-x86 systems.
 
||
|- bgcolor="#eeeeee"
|- bgcolor="#eeeeee"
| COREBOOT_V2 || "This is used by code to determine v2 vs v3" || 1 || always ||  
| PCI_OPTION_ROM_RUN_YABEL || devices || bool || YABEL ||  
If you select this option, the YABEL system emulator will be used to
execute PCI option ROMs.
YABEL consists of two parts: It uses x86emu for the CPU emulation and
additionally provides a PC system emulation that filters bad device and
memory access (such as PCI config space access to other devices than the
initialized one).
This option best prevents option ROMs from doing dirty tricks with the
system (such as installing SMM modules or hypervisors), but it is also
significantly slower than the other option ROM initialization methods.

Revision as of 14:06, 9 February 2010

This is an automatically generated list of coreboot compile-time options.

Last update: 2010/02/09 15:05:25. (r5100)

Option Source Format Short Description Description
Menu: General setup
EXPERT toplevel bool Expert mode

This allows you to select certain advanced configuration options.

Warning: Only enable this option if you really know what you are doing! You have been warned!

LOCALVERSION toplevel string Local version string

Append an extra string to the end of the coreboot version.

This can be useful if, for instance, you want to append the respective board's hostname or some other identifying string to the coreboot version number, so that you can easily distinguish boot logs of different boards from each other.

Menu: Mainboard
BOARD_ROMSIZE_KB_4096 mainboard bool ROM chip size

Select the size of the ROM chip you intend to flash coreboot on.

The build system will take care of creating a coreboot.rom file of the matching size.

COREBOOT_ROMSIZE_KB_128 mainboard bool 128 KB

Choose this option if you have a 128 KB ROM chip.

COREBOOT_ROMSIZE_KB_256 mainboard bool 256 KB

Choose this option if you have a 256 KB ROM chip.

COREBOOT_ROMSIZE_KB_512 mainboard bool 512 KB

Choose this option if you have a 512 KB ROM chip.

COREBOOT_ROMSIZE_KB_1024 mainboard bool 1024 KB (1 MB)

Choose this option if you have a 1024 KB (1 MB) ROM chip.

COREBOOT_ROMSIZE_KB_2048 mainboard bool 2048 KB (2 MB)

Choose this option if you have a 2048 KB (2 MB) ROM chip.

COREBOOT_ROMSIZE_KB_4096 mainboard bool 4096 KB (4 MB)

Choose this option if you have a 4096 KB (4 MB) ROM chip.

Menu: Chipset
(comment) CPU
SMP cpu bool

This option is used to enable certain functions to make coreboot work correctly on symmetric multi processor (SMP) systems.

VAR_MTRR_HOLE cpu bool

Unset this if you don't want the MTRR code to use subtractive MTRRs

(comment) Northbridge
(comment) Southbridge
Menu: AMD Geode GX1 video support
(comment) Super I/O
(comment) Devices
VGA_BRIDGE_SETUP devices bool Setup bridges on path to VGA adapter

Allow bridges to set up legacy decoding ranges for VGA. Don't disable this unless you're sure you don't want the briges setup for VGA.

VGA_ROM_RUN devices bool Run VGA option ROMs

Execute VGA option ROMs, if found. This is required to enable PCI/AGP/PCI-E video cards.

PCI_ROM_RUN devices bool Run non-VGA option ROMs

Execute non-VGA PCI option ROMs, if found.

Examples include IDE/SATA controller option ROMs and option ROMs for network cards (NICs).

PCI_OPTION_ROM_RUN_REALMODE devices bool Real mode

If you select this option, PCI option ROMs will be executed natively on the CPU in real mode. No CPU emulation is involved, so this is the fastest, but also the least secure option. (only works on x86/x64 systems)

PCI_OPTION_ROM_RUN_X86EMU devices bool x86emu

If you select this option, the x86emu CPU emulator will be used to execute PCI option ROMs. When choosing this option, x86emu will pass through all hardware accesses to memory and IO devices to the underlying memory and IO addresses. While this option prevents option ROMs from doing dirty tricks with the CPU (such as installing SMM modules or hypervisors), they can still access all devices in the system. Choosing x86emu, option ROM execution is slower than native execution in real mode, but faster than the full system emulation YABEL This is the default choice for non-x86 systems.

PCI_OPTION_ROM_RUN_YABEL devices bool YABEL

If you select this option, the YABEL system emulator will be used to execute PCI option ROMs. YABEL consists of two parts: It uses x86emu for the CPU emulation and additionally provides a PC system emulation that filters bad device and memory access (such as PCI config space access to other devices than the initialized one). This option best prevents option ROMs from doing dirty tricks with the system (such as installing SMM modules or hypervisors), but it is also significantly slower than the other option ROM initialization methods.

YABEL_DEBUG_FLAGS devices hex Hex value for YABEL debug flags

See debug.h for values 0 is no debug output, 0x31ff is _verbose_.

Menu: Console options
CONSOLE_SERIAL8250 console bool Serial port console output

Send coreboot debug output to a serial port console.

CONSOLE_SERIAL_COM1 console bool COM1/ttyS0, I/O port 0x3f8

CONSOLE_SERIAL_COM3 console bool COM3/ttyS2, I/O port 0x3e8

Serial console on COM3/ttyS2 at I/O port 0x3e8.

CONSOLE_SERIAL_COM4 console bool COM4/ttyS3, I/O port 0x2e8

Serial console on COM4/ttyS3 at I/O port 0x2e8.

TTYS0_BASE console hex

Map the COM port names to the respective I/O port.

CONSOLE_SERIAL_115200 console bool 115200

Set serial port Baud rate to 115200.

SERIAL_POST console bool Show POST codes on the serial port console

If enabled, coreboot will additionally print POST codes (which are usually displayed using a so-called "POST card" ISA/PCI/PCI-E device) on the serial console.

USBDEBUG_DIRECT console bool USB 2.0 EHCI debug dongle support

This option allows you to use a so-called USB EHCI Debug device to retrieve the coreboot debug messages (instead, or in addition to, a serial port).

This feature is NOT supported on all chipsets in coreboot!

It also requires a USB2 controller which supports the EHCI Debug Port capability. Controllers which are known to work:
