NAME
bct_dump — tegra boot config table (bct) dumping utility
SYNOPSIS
bct_dump [bct filename to read and display]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the bct_dump command.
bct_dump is used to convert the contents of a boot config table (BCT) used in NVIDIA Tegra devices, ready
to be further proceeded by cbootimage (1). The BCT is usually placed in the first bytes of the storage
device and can be extracted using tegrarcm(1).
The BCT is a data structure that provides basic initialization parameters, and defines the bootloader to
execute.
The BCT contains:
• Header information, such as cryptographic validation hashes and size information.
• Boot memory configuration. This allows the boot memory controller to be programmed optimally, in
order to read the bootloader.
• SDRAM controller configuration. This allows the SDRAM controller to be programmed, and hence
external SDRAM accessed.
• A bad block table.
• Information about the bootloader to execute.
• A "customer data" area, which may be used to store arbitrary customer- or device-software-specific
data. This area includes the ODMDATA.
OPTIONS
