+ help
+ U-Boot supports a standard way of locating something to boot,
+ typically an Operating System such as Linux, provided by a distro such
+ as Arch Linux or Debian. Enable this to support iterating through
+ available bootdevs and using bootmeths to find bootflows suitable for
+ booting.
+
+ Standard boot is not a standard way of booting, just a framework
+ within U-Boot for supporting all the different ways that exist.
+
+ Terminology:
+
+ - bootdev - a device which can hold a distro (e.g. MMC)
+ - bootmeth - a method to scan a bootdev to find bootflows (owned by
+ U-Boot)
+ - bootflow - a description of how to boot (owned by the distro)

+config BOOTSTD_FULL
+ bool "Enhanced features for standard boot"
+ default y if SANDBOX
+ help
+ This enables various useful features for standard boot, which are not
+ essential for operation:
+
+ - bootdev, bootmeth commands
+ - extra features in the bootflow command
+ - support for selecting the ordering of bootmeths ("bootmeth order")
+ - support for selecting the ordering of bootdevs using the devicetree
+ as well as the "boot_targets" environment variable
