- Enable this if building the u-boot.rom target needs binary blobs, and
- so cannot be done normally. In this case, U-Boot will only build the
- ROM if the required blobs exist. If not, you will see an warning like:

- This option allows to build a ROM version of U-Boot.
- The build process generally requires several binary blobs
- which are not shipped in the U-Boot source tree.

Building a ROM version of U-Boot (hereafter referred to as u-boot.rom) is a
little bit tricky, as generally it requires several binary blobs which are not
-shipped in the U-Boot source tree. Due to this reason, the u-boot.rom build is
-not turned on by default in the U-Boot source tree. Firstly, you need turn it
-on by enabling the ROM build either via an environment variable::
-
- $ export BUILD_ROM=y
-
-or via configuration::
-
- CONFIG_BUILD_ROM=y
-
-Both tell the Makefile to build u-boot.rom as a target.
+shipped in the U-Boot source tree. Due to this reason, the u-boot.rom build may
+print some warnings if required binary blobs (e.g.: FSP) are not present.
