+- I/O tracing:
+ When CONFIG_IO_TRACE is selected, U-Boot intercepts all I/O
+ accesses and can checksum them or write a list of them out
+ to memory. See the 'iotrace' command for details. This is
+ useful for testing device drivers since it can confirm that
+ the driver behaves the same way before and after a code
+ change. Currently this is supported on sandbox and arm. To
+ add support for your architecture, add '#include <iotrace.h>'
+ to the bottom of arch/<arch>/include/asm/io.h and test.

+ Example output from the 'iotrace stats' command is below.
