+cp command
+==========
+
+Synopsis
+--------
+
+::
+
+ cp source target count
+ cp.b source target count
+ cp.w source target count
+ cp.l source target count
+ cp.q source target count
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The cp command is used to copy *count* chunks of memory from the *source*
+address to the *target* address. If the *target* address points to NOR flash,
+the flash is programmed.
+
+The number bytes in one chunk is defined by the suffix defaulting to 4 bytes:
+
+====== ==========
+suffix chunk size
+====== ==========
+.b 1 byte
+.w 2 bytes
+.l 4 bytes
+.q 8 bytes
+<none> 4 bytes
+====== ==========
+
+source
+ source address, hexadecimal
+
+target
+ target address, hexadecimal
+
+count
+ number of words to be copied, hexadecimal
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+The example device has a NOR flash where the lower part of the flash is
+protected. We first copy to RAM, then to unprotected flash. Last we try to
+write to protectd flash.
+
+::

+ List of MTD devices:
+ * nor0
+ - device: flash@0
+ - parent: root_driver
+ - driver: cfi_flash
+ - path: /flash@0
+ - type: NOR flash
+ - block size: 0x20000 bytes
+ - min I/O: 0x1 bytes
+ - 0x000000000000-0x000002000000 : "nor0"
+ => cp.b 4020000 5000000 200000

+ Copy to Flash... done
+ => cp.b 4020000 0 20000
+ Copy to Flash... Can't write to protected Flash sectors
+ =>
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+The cp command is available if CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY=y. Support for 64 bit words
+(cp.q) depends on CONFIG_MEM_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA=y. Copying to flash depends on
+CONFIG_MTD_NOR_FLASH=y.
+
+Return value
+------------
+
+The return value $? is set to 0 (true) if the command was successfully,
+1 (false) otherwise.
