+ a) The environment occupies one whole flash sector, which is
+ "embedded" in the text segment with the U-Boot code. This
+ happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot
+ sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller
+ sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a
+ layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In
+ such a case you would place the environment in one of the
+ 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With
+ "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the
+ environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap
+ between U-Boot and the environment.
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
+
+ Offset of environment data (variable area) to the
+ beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot
+ type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset
+ for this sector is given here.
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE.
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_ADDR:
+
+ This is just another way to specify the start address of
+ the flash sector containing the environment (instead of
+ CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET).
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE:
+
+ Size of the sector containing the environment.
+
+
+ b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors.
+ In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for
+ the environment.
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
+
+ If you use this in combination with CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH
+ and CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part
+ of this flash sector for the environment. This saves
+ memory for the RAM copy of the environment.
+
+ It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this
+ when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code,
+ since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used
+ for U-Boot code. It should be pointed out that this is
+ STRONGLY DISCOURAGED from a robustness point of view:
+ updating the environment in flash makes it always
+ necessary to erase the WHOLE sector. If something goes
+ wrong before the contents has been restored from a copy in
+ RAM, your target system will be dead.
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_ADDR_REDUND
+ CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND
+
+ These settings describe a second storage area used to hold
+ a redundant copy of the environment data, so that there is
+ a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure during
+ a "saveenv" operation.
+
+ BE CAREFUL! Any changes to the flash layout, and some changes to the
+ source code will make it necessary to adapt <board>/u-boot.lds*
+ accordingly!

help
Define this if you have an MMC device which you want to use for the
environment.
+ CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_DEV:
+
+ Specifies which MMC device the environment is stored in.
+
+ CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART (optional):
+
+ Specifies which MMC partition the environment is stored in. If not
+ set, defaults to partition 0, the user area. Common values might be
+ 1 (first MMC boot partition), 2 (second MMC boot partition).
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET:
+ CONFIG_ENV_SIZE:
+
+ These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
+ area within the specified MMC device.
+
+ If offset is positive (the usual case), it is treated as relative to
+ the start of the MMC partition. If offset is negative, it is treated
+ as relative to the end of the MMC partition. This can be useful if
+ your board may be fitted with different MMC devices, which have
+ different sizes for the MMC partitions, and you always want the
+ environment placed at the very end of the partition, to leave the
+ maximum possible space before it, to store other data.
+
+ These two values are in units of bytes, but must be aligned to an
+ MMC sector boundary.
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
+
+ Specifies a second storage area, of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE size, used to
+ hold a redundant copy of the environment data. This provides a
+ valid backup copy in case the other copy is corrupted, e.g. due
+ to a power failure during a "saveenv" operation.
+
+ This value may also be positive or negative; this is handled in the
+ same way as CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET.
+
+ This value is also in units of bytes, but must also be aligned to
+ an MMC sector boundary.
+
+ CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND (optional):
+
+ This value need not be set, even when CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is
+ set. If this value is set, it must be set to the same value as
+ CONFIG_ENV_SIZE.

+ These two #defines specify the offset and size of the environment
+ area within the first NAND device. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET must be

+
+ - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (optional):
+
+ This setting describes a second storage area of CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
+ size used to hold a redundant copy of the environment data, so
+ that there is a valid backup copy in case there is a power failure
+ during a "saveenv" operation. CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND must be
+ aligned to an erase block boundary.
+
+ - CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (optional):
+
+ Specifies the length of the region in which the environment
+ can be written. This should be a multiple of the NAND device's
+ block size. Specifying a range with more erase blocks than
+ are needed to hold CONFIG_ENV_SIZE allows bad blocks within
+ the range to be avoided.
+
+ - CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB (optional):
+
+ Enables support for dynamically retrieving the offset of the
+ environment from block zero's out-of-band data. The
+ "nand env.oob" command can be used to record this offset.
+ Currently, CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND is not supported when
+ using CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_OOB.
