The 'pxe' commands provide a near subset of the functionality provided by
|
|
the PXELINUX boot loader. This allows U-Boot based systems to be controlled
|
|
remotely using the same PXE based techniques that many non U-Boot based servers
|
|
use.
|
|
|
|
Commands
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
pxe get
|
|
-------
|
|
syntax: pxe get
|
|
|
|
follows PXELINUX's rules for retrieving configuration files from a tftp
|
|
server, and supports a subset of PXELINUX's config file syntax.
|
|
|
|
Environment
|
|
-----------
|
|
'pxe get' requires two environment variables to be set:
|
|
|
|
pxefile_addr_r - should be set to a location in RAM large enough to hold
|
|
pxe files while they're being processed. Up to 16 config files may be
|
|
held in memory at once. The exact number and size of the files varies with
|
|
how the system is being used. A typical config file is a few hundred bytes
|
|
long.
|
|
|
|
bootfile,serverip - these two are typically set in the DHCP response
|
|
handler, and correspond to fields in the DHCP response.
|
|
|
|
'pxe get' optionally supports these two environment variables being set:
|
|
|
|
ethaddr - this is the standard MAC address for the ethernet adapter in use.
|
|
'pxe get' uses it to look for a configuration file specific to a system's
|
|
MAC address.
|
|
|
|
pxeuuid - this is a UUID in standard form using lower case hexadecimal
|
|
digits, for example, 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000. 'pxe get' uses
|
|
it to look for a configuration file based on the system's UUID.
|
|
|
|
File Paths
|
|
----------
|
|
'pxe get' repeatedly tries to download config files until it either
|
|
successfully downloads one or runs out of paths to try. The order and
|
|
contents of paths it tries mirrors exactly that of PXELINUX - you can
|
|
read in more detail about it at:
|
|
|
|
http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/Doc/pxelinux
|
|
|
|
pxe boot
|
|
--------
|
|
syntax: pxe boot [pxefile_addr_r]
|
|
|
|
Interprets a pxe file stored in memory.
|
|
|
|
pxefile_addr_r is an optional argument giving the location of the pxe file.
|
|
The file must be terminated with a NUL byte.
|
|
|
|
Environment
|
|
-----------
|
|
There are some environment variables that may need to be set, depending
|
|
on conditions.
|
|
|
|
pxefile_addr_r - if the optional argument pxefile_addr_r is not supplied,
|
|
an environment variable named pxefile_addr_r must be supplied. This is
|
|
typically the same value as is used for the 'pxe get' command.
|
|
|
|
bootfile - typically set in the DHCP response handler based on the
|
|
same field in the DHCP respone, this path is used to generate the base
|
|
directory that all other paths to files retrieved by 'pxe boot' will use.
|
|
If no bootfile is specified, paths used in pxe files will be used as is.
|
|
|
|
serverip - typically set in the DHCP response handler, this is the IP
|
|
address of the tftp server from which other files will be retrieved.
|
|
|
|
kernel_addr_r, initrd_addr_r - locations in RAM at which 'pxe boot' will
|
|
store the kernel(or FIT image) and initrd it retrieves from tftp. These
|
|
locations will be passed to the bootm command to boot the kernel. These
|
|
environment variables are required to be set.
|
|
|
|
fdt_addr_r - location in RAM at which 'pxe boot' will store the fdt blob it
|
|
retrieves from tftp. The retrieval is possible if 'fdt' label is defined in
|
|
pxe file and 'fdt_addr_r' is set. If retrieval is possible, 'fdt_addr_r'
|
|
will be passed to bootm command to boot the kernel.
|
|
|
|
fdt_addr - the location of a fdt blob. 'fdt_addr' will be passed to bootm
|
|
command if it is set and 'fdt_addr_r' is not passed to bootm command.
|
|
|
|
fdtoverlay_addr_r - location in RAM at which 'pxe boot' will temporarily store
|
|
fdt overlay(s) before applying them to the fdt blob stored at 'fdt_addr_r'.
|
|
|
|
pxe_label_override - override label to be used, if exists, instead of the
|
|
default label. This will allow consumers to choose a pxe label at
|
|
runtime instead of having to prompt the user. If "pxe_label_override" is set
|
|
but does not exist in the pxe menu, pxe would fallback to the default label if
|
|
given, and no failure is returned but rather a warning message.
|
|
|
|
pxe file format
|
|
===============
|
|
The pxe file format is nearly a subset of the PXELINUX file format; see
|
|
http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/PXELINUX. It's composed of one line
|
|
commands - global commands, and commands specific to labels. Lines begining
|
|
with # are treated as comments. White space between and at the beginning of
|
|
lines is ignored.
|
|
|
|
The size of pxe files and the number of labels is only limited by the amount
|
|
of RAM available to U-Boot. Memory for labels is dynamically allocated as
|
|
they're parsed, and memory for pxe files is statically allocated, and its
|
|
location is given by the pxefile_addr_r environment variable. The pxe code is
|
|
not aware of the size of the pxefile memory and will outgrow it if pxe files
|
|
are too large.
|
|
|
|
Supported global commands
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
Unrecognized commands are ignored.
|
|
|
|
default <label> - the label named here is treated as the default and is
|
|
the first label 'pxe boot' attempts to boot.
|
|
|
|
menu title <string> - sets a title for the menu of labels being displayed.
|
|
|
|
menu include <path> - use tftp to retrieve the pxe file at <path>, which
|
|
is then immediately parsed as if the start of its
|
|
contents were the next line in the current file. nesting
|
|
of include up to 16 files deep is supported.
|
|
|
|
prompt <flag> - if 1, always prompt the user to enter a label to boot
|
|
from. if 0, only prompt the user if timeout expires.
|
|
|
|
timeout <num> - wait for user input for <num>/10 seconds before
|
|
auto-booting a node.
|
|
|
|
label <name> - begin a label definition. labels continue until
|
|
a command not recognized as a label command is seen,
|
|
or EOF is reached.
|
|
|
|
Supported label commands
|
|
------------------------
|
|
labels end when a command not recognized as a label command is reached, or EOF.
|
|
|
|
menu default - set this label as the default label to boot; this is
|
|
the same behavior as the global default command but
|
|
specified in a different way
|
|
|
|
kernel <path> - if this label is chosen, use tftp to retrieve the kernel
|
|
(or FIT image) at <path>. it will be stored at the address
|
|
indicated in the kernel_addr_r environment variable, and
|
|
that address will be passed to bootm to boot this kernel.
|
|
For FIT image, The configuration specification can be
|
|
appended to the file name, with the format:
|
|
<path>#<conf>[#<extra-conf[#...]]
|
|
It will passed to bootm with that address.
|
|
(see: doc/uImage.FIT/command_syntax_extensions.txt)
|
|
It useful for overlay selection in pxe file
|
|
(see: doc/uImage.FIT/overlay-fdt-boot.txt)
|
|
|
|
fdtoverlays <path> [...] - if this label is chosen, use tftp to retrieve the DT
|
|
overlay(s) at <path>. it will be temporarily stored at the
|
|
address indicated in the fdtoverlay_addr_r environment variable,
|
|
and then applied in the load order to the fdt blob stored at the
|
|
address indicated in the fdt_addr_r environment variable.
|
|
|
|
kaslrseed - set this label to request random number from hwrng as kaslr seed.
|
|
|
|
append <string> - use <string> as the kernel command line when booting this
|
|
label.
|
|
|
|
initrd <path> - if this label is chosen, use tftp to retrieve the initrd
|
|
at <path>. it will be stored at the address indicated in
|
|
the initrd_addr_r environment variable, and that address
|
|
will be passed to bootm.
|
|
|
|
fdt <path> - if this label is chosen, use tftp to retrieve the fdt blob
|
|
at <path>. it will be stored at the address indicated in
|
|
the fdt_addr_r environment variable, and that address will
|
|
be passed to bootm.
|
|
|
|
fdtdir <path> - if this label is chosen, use tftp to retrieve a fdt blob
|
|
relative to <path>. If the fdtfile environment variable
|
|
is set, <path>/<fdtfile> is retrieved. Otherwise, the
|
|
filename is generated from the soc and board environment
|
|
variables, i.e. <path>/<soc>-<board>.dtb is retrieved.
|
|
If the fdt command is specified, fdtdir is ignored.
|
|
|
|
localboot <flag> - Run the command defined by "localcmd" in the environment.
|
|
<flag> is ignored and is only here to match the syntax of
|
|
PXELINUX config files.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
default linux-2.6.38
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
When a pxe client retrieves and boots the default pxe file,
|
|
'pxe boot' will wait for user input for 5 seconds before booting
|
|
the linux-2.6.38 label, which will cause /tftpboot/kernels/linux-2.6.38.bin
|
|
to be downloaded, and boot with the command line "root=/dev/sdb1"

Differences with PXELINUX
|
|
=========================
|
|
The biggest difference between U-Boot's pxe and PXELINUX is that since
|
|
U-Boot's pxe support is written entirely in C, it can run on any platform
|
|
with network support in U-Boot. Here are some other differences between
|
|
PXELINUX and U-Boot's pxe support.
|
|
|
|
- U-Boot's pxe does not support the PXELINUX DHCP option codes specified
|
|
in RFC 5071, but could be extended to do so.
|
|
|
|
- when U-Boot's pxe fails to boot, it will return control to U-Boot,
|
|
allowing another command to run, other U-Boot command, instead of resetting
|
|
the machine like PXELINUX.
|
|
|
|
- U-Boot's pxe doesn't rely on or provide an UNDI/PXE stack in memory, it
|
|
only uses U-Boot.
|
|
|
|
- U-Boot's pxe doesn't provide the full menu implementation that PXELINUX
|
|
does, only a simple text based menu using the commands described in
|
|
this README. With PXELINUX, it's possible to have a graphical boot
|
|
menu, submenus, passwords, etc. U-Boot's pxe could be extended to support
|
|
a more robust menuing system like that of PXELINUX's.
|
|
|
|
- U-Boot's pxe expects U-Boot uimg's as kernels. Anything that would work
|
|
with the 'bootm' command in U-Boot could work with the 'pxe boot' command.
|
|
|
|
- U-Boot's pxe only recognizes a single file on the initrd command line. It
|
|
could be extended to support multiple.
|
|
|
|
- in U-Boot's pxe, the localboot command doesn't necessarily cause a local
|
|
disk boot - it will do whatever is defined in the 'localcmd' env
|
|
variable. And since it doesn't support a full UNDI/PXE stack, the
|
|
type field is ignored.
|
|
|
|
- the interactive prompt in U-Boot's pxe only allows you to choose a label
|
|
from the menu. If you want to boot something not listed, you can ctrl+c
|
|
out of 'pxe boot' and use existing U-Boot commands to accomplish it.
