+title: U-Boot environment variables
+
+description: |
+ U-Boot uses environment variables to store device parameters and
+ configuration. They may be used for booting process, setup or keeping end user
+ info.
+
+ Data is stored using U-Boot specific formats (variant specific header and NUL
+ separated key-value pairs).
+
+ Environment data can be stored on various storage entities, e.g.:
+ 1. Raw flash partition
+ 2. UBI volume
+
+ This binding allows marking storage device (as containing env data) and
+ specifying used format.
+
+ Right now only flash partition case is covered but it may be extended to e.g.
+ UBI volumes in the future.
