+efi command
+===========
+
+Synopsis
+--------
+
+::
+
+    efi mem [all]
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The *efi* command provides information about the EFI environment U-Boot is
+running in, when it is started from EFI.
+
+When running as an EFI app, this command queries EFI boot services for the
+information. When running as an EFI payload, EFI boot services have been
+stopped, so it uses the information collected by the boot stub before that
+happened.
+
+efi mem
+~~~~~~~
+
+This shows the EFI memory map, sorted in order of physical address.
+
+This is normally a very large table. To help reduce the amount of detritus,
+boot-time memory is normally merged with conventional memory. Use the 'all'
+argument to show everything.
+
+The fields are as follows:
+
+#
+    Entry number (sequentially from 0)
+
+Type
+    Memory type. EFI has a large number of memory types. The type is shown in
+    the format <n>:<name> where in is the format number in hex and <name> is the
+    name.
+
+Physical
+    Physical address
+
+Virtual
+    Virtual address
+
+Size
+    Size of memory area in bytes
+
+Attributes
+    Shows a code for memory attributes. The key for this is shown below the
+    table.
+
+Example
+-------
+
+::
