some time ago, i wrote some simple shell scripts that scanned the kernel source tree and identified oddities in configuration files -- things like Kconfig variables that were defined but never used, macros that were being tested but were never set, etc. i just tweaked one of those scripts to scan the u-boot tree to locate CONFIG_CMD_* variables that were being tested, but weren't "#defined" anywhere. nothing wrong with that, most of them are still documented and i've added at the bottom the fairly short output of those u-boot variables as well as their occurrence in the tree.
they fall into three categories, with examples. here's one where there's no #define, but the variable is at least documented so no problem:
===== CONFIG_CMD_DS4510_RST drivers/misc/ds4510.c:#ifdef CONFIG_CMD_DS4510_RST drivers/misc/ds4510.c:#ifdef CONFIG_CMD_DS4510_RST drivers/misc/ds4510.c:#ifdef CONFIG_CMD_DS4510_RST README: CONFIG_CMD_DS4510_RST * ds4510 I2C rst command
here's one where there's no #define, and apparently no documentation anywhere:
===== CONFIG_CMD_NAND_YAFFS common/cmd_nand.c:#ifdef CONFIG_CMD_NAND_YAFFS common/cmd_nand.c:#ifdef CONFIG_CMD_NAND_YAFFS drivers/mtd/nand/nand_util.c:#ifdef CONFIG_CMD_NAND_YAFFS drivers/mtd/nand/nand_util.c:#ifdef CONFIG_CMD_NAND_YAFFS include/configs/M54418TWR.h:#undef CONFIG_CMD_NAND_YAFFS
finally, here's a case that looks like a reference to a command that was never added and thus represents pointless code:
===== CONFIG_CMD_FUSE arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc512x/iim.c:#ifdef CONFIG_CMD_FUSE arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc512x/iim.c:#endif /* CONFIG_CMD_FUSE */ board/esd/mecp5123/mecp5123.c:#if defined(CONFIG_IIM) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_FUSE) board/pdm360ng/pdm360ng.c:#if defined(CONFIG_IIM) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_FUSE) board/davedenx/aria/aria.c:#if defined(CONFIG_IIM) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_FUSE) board/freescale/mpc5121ads/mpc5121ads.c:#if defined(CONFIG_IIM) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_FUSE) include/configs/mecp5123.h:#undef CONFIG_CMD_FUSE include/configs/aria.h:#undef CONFIG_CMD_FUSE include/configs/mpc5121ads.h:#undef CONFIG_CMD_FUSE
