Description
-----------
The `bootflow` command is used to manage bootflows. It can scan bootdevs to
locate bootflows, list them and boot them.
See :doc:`/develop/bootstd/index` for more information.
Note that `CONFIG_BOOTSTD_FULL` (which enables `CONFIG_CMD_BOOTFLOW_FULL) must
be enabled to obtain full functionality with this command. Otherwise, it only
supports `bootflow scan` which scans and boots the first available bootflow.
bootflow scan
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scans for available bootflows, optionally booting the first valid one it finds.
This operates in two modes:
- If no bootdev is selected (see `bootdev select`) it scans bootflows one
by one, extracting all the bootdevs from each
- If a bootdev is selected, it just scans that one bootflow
Flags are:
-a
Collect all bootflows, even those that cannot be loaded. Normally if a file
is not where it is expected, then the bootflow fails and so is dropped
during the scan. With this option you can see why each bootflow would be
dropped.
-b
Boot each valid bootflow as it is scanned. Typically only the first bootflow
matters, since by then the system boots in the OS and U-Boot is no-longer
running. `bootflow scan -b` is a quick way to boot the first available OS.
A valid bootflow is one that made it all the way to the `loaded` state.
Note that if `-m` is provided as well, booting is delayed until the user
selects a bootflow.
-e
Used with -l to also show errors for each bootflow. The shows detailed error
information for each bootflow that failed to make it to the `loaded` state.
-l
List bootflows while scanning. This is helpful when you want to see what
is happening during scanning. Use it with the `-b` flag to see which
bootdev and bootflows are being tried.
-G
Skip global bootmeths when scanning. By default these are tried first, but
this flag disables them.
-H
Don't use bootdev hunters. By default these are used before each boot
priority or label is tried, to see if more bootdevs can be discovered, but
this flag disables that process.
-m
Show a menu of available bootflows for the user to select. When used with
-b it then boots the one that was selected, if any.
The optional argument specifies a particular bootdev to scan. This can either be
the name of a bootdev or its sequence number (both shown with `bootdev list`).
Alternatively a convenience label can be used, like `mmc0`, which is the type of
device and an optional sequence number. Specifically, the label is the uclass of
the bootdev's parent followed by the sequence number of that parent. Sequence
numbers are typically set by aliases, so if you have 'mmc0' in your devicetree
alias section, then `mmc0` refers to the bootdev attached to that device.
bootflow list
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lists the previously scanned bootflows. You must use `bootflow scan` before this
to see anything.
If you scanned with -a and have bootflows with errors, -e can be used to show
those errors.
The list looks something like this:
=== ====== ====== ======== ==== =============================== ================
Seq Method State Uclass Part Name Filename
=== ====== ====== ======== ==== =============================== ================
0 distro ready mmc 2 mmc\@7e202000.bootdev.part_2 /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf
1 pxe ready ethernet 0 smsc95xx_eth.bootdev.0 rpi.pxe/extlinux/extlinux.conf
=== ====== ====== ======== ==== =============================== ================
The fields are as follows:
Seq:
Sequence number in the scan, used to reference the bootflow later
Method:
The boot method (bootmeth) used to find the bootflow. Several methods are
included in U-Boot.
State:
Current state of the bootflow, indicating how far the bootdev got in
obtaining a valid one. See :ref:`BootflowStates` for a list of states.
Uclass:
Name of the media device's Uclass. This indicates the type of the parent
device (e.g. MMC, Ethernet).
Part:
Partition number being accesseed, numbered from 1. Normally a device will
have a partition table with a small number of partitions. For devices
without partition tables (e.g. network) this field is 0.
Name:
Name of the bootflow. This is generated from the bootdev appended with
the partition information
Filename:
Name of the bootflow file. This indicates where the file is on the
filesystem or network device.
bootflow select
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Use this to select a particular bootflow. You can select it by the sequence
number or name, as shown in `bootflow list`.
Once a bootflow is selected, you can use `bootflow info` and `bootflow boot`.
If no bootflow name or number is provided, then any existing bootflow is
unselected.
bootflow info
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This shows information on the current bootflow, with the format looking like
this:
========= ===============================
Name mmc\@7e202000.bootdev.part_2
Device mmc\@7e202000.bootdev
Block dev mmc\@7e202000.blk
Type distro
Method: extlinux
State ready
Partition 2
Subdir (none)
Filename /extlinux/extlinux.conf
Buffer 3db7ad48
Size 232 (562 bytes)
FDT: <NULL>
Error 0
========= ===============================
Most of the information is the same as `bootflow list` above. The new fields
are:
Device
Name of the bootdev
Block dev
Name of the block device, if any. Network devices don't have a block device.
Subdir
Subdirectory used for retrieving files. For network bootdevs this is the
directory of the 'bootfile' parameter passed from DHCP. All file retrievals
when booting are relative to this.
Buffer
Buffer containing the bootflow file. You can use the :doc:`md` to look at
it, or dump it with `bootflow info -d`.
Size
Size of the bootflow file
FDT:
Filename of the device tree, if supported. The EFI bootmeth uses this to
remember the filename to load. If `<NULL>` then there is none.
Error
Error number returned from scanning for the bootflow. This is 0 if the
bootflow is in the 'loaded' state, or a negative error value on error. You
can look up Linux error codes to find the meaning of the number.
Use the `-d` flag to dump out the contents of the bootfile file.
The `-s` flag shows any x86 setup block, instead of the above.
bootflow read
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This reads any files related to the bootflow. Some bootflows with large files
avoid doing this when the bootflow is scanned, since it uses a lot of memory
and takes extra time. The files are then automatically read when `bootflow boot`
is used.
This command reads these files immediately. Typically this fills in the bootflow
`buf` property, which can be used to examine the bootflow.
Note that reading the files does not result in any extra parsing, nor loading of
images in the files. This is purely used to read in the data ready for
booting, or examination.
bootflow boot
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This boots the current bootflow, reading any required files first.
bootflow cmdline
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some bootmeths can obtain the OS command line since it is stored with the OS.
In that case, you can use `bootflow cmdline` to adjust this. The command line
is assumed to be in the format used by Linux, i.e. a space-separated set of
parameters with optional values, e.g. "noinitrd console=/dev/tty0".
To change or add a parameter, use::
bootflow cmdline set <param> <value>
To clear a parameter value to empty you can use "" for the value, or use::
bootflow cmdline clear <param>
To delete a parameter entirely, use::
bootflow cmdline delete <param>
Automatic parameters are available in a very few cases. You can use these to
add parmeters where the value is known by U-Boot. For example::
bootflow cmdline auto earlycon
bootflow cmdline auto console
can be used to set the early console (or console) to a suitable value so that
output appears on the serial port. This is only supported by the 16550 serial
driver so far.
bootflow menu
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This shows a menu with available bootflows. The user can select a particular
bootflow, which then becomes the current one.
The `-t` flag requests a text menu. Otherwise, if a display is available, a
graphical menu is shown.

Here is an example of scanning for bootflows, then listing them::

Return value
------------
On success `bootflow boot` normally boots into the Operating System and does not
return to U-Boot. If something about the U-Boot processing fails, then the
return value $? is 1. If the boot succeeds but for some reason the Operating
System returns, then $? is 0, indicating success.
For `bootflow menu` the return value is $? is 0 (true) if an option was choses,
else 1.
For other subcommands, the return value $? is always 0 (true).
