- This config allows kernel to use SBI v0.2 APIs. SBI v0.2 is more
- scalable and extendable to handle future needs for RISC-V supervisor
- interfaces. For example, with SBI v0.2 HSM extension, only a single
- hart need to boot and enter operating system. The booting hart can
- bring up secondary harts one by one afterwards.
+ The SBI specification introduced the concept of extensions in version
+ v0.2. With this configuration option U-Boot can detect and use SBI
+ extensions. With the HSM extension introduced in SBI 0.2, only a
+ single hart needs to boot and enter the operating system. The booting
+ hart can bring up secondary harts one by one afterwards.
- Choose this option if OpenSBI v0.7 or above release is used together
+ Choose this option if OpenSBI release v0.7 or above is used together
with U-Boot.
