- Boot an application image from the memory.
+ Enable recording of boot time while booting. To use it, insert
+ calls to bootstage_mark() with a suitable BOOTSTAGE_ID from
+ bootstage.h. Only a single entry is recorded for each ID. You can
+ give the entry a name with bootstage_mark_name(). You can also
+ record elapsed time in a particular stage using bootstage_start()
+ before starting and bootstage_accum() when finished. Bootstage will

- Compute CRC32.

- Export environments.
+ Stash the bootstage information in the FDT. A root 'bootstage'
+ node is created with each bootstage id as a child. Each child
+ has a 'name' property and either 'mark' containing the
+ mark time in microsecond, or 'accum' containing the
+ accumulated time for that bootstage id in microseconds.
+ For example:
+
+ bootstage {
+ 154 {

help
- Import environments.
+ Some OSes do not support device tree. Bootstage can instead write
+ the boot timing information in a binary format at a given address.
+ This happens through a call to bootstage_stash(), typically in
+ the CPU's cleanup_before_linux() function. You can use the
+ 'bootstage stash' and 'bootstage unstash' commands to do this on
