Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] README: Document CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2012 10:28:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1351099697-8786-2-git-send-email-trini@ti.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1351099697-8786-1-git-send-email-trini@ti.com>

This option is intended to be set by boards which will set the
board_name and board_rev environment variables.  These are to be used
when the U-Boot binary can support more than one board type at run-time
and the user needs an easy way (for example for scripting to determine
what device tree to load) to determine what board they are on.
