When checked with current loglevel in Kconfig it show default i.e. CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=4 these are boot logs : U-Boot 2024.04 (Apr 02 2024 - 10:58:58 +0000) DRAM: 948 MiB (effective 7.9 GiB) RPI 4 Model B (0xd03114) Core: 213 devices, 16 uclasses, devicetree: board MMC: mmcnr@7e300000: 1, mmc@7e340000: 0 Loading Environment from MMC... *** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment In: serial,usbkbd Out: serial,vidconsole Err: serial,vidconsole Net: eth0: ethernet@7d580000 PCIe BRCM: link up, 5.0 Gbps x1 (SSC) starting USB...

The loglevels are defined as follows: 0 - emergency 1 - alert 2 - critical 3 - error 4 - warning 5 - note 6 - info 7 - debug 8 - debug content 9 - debug hardware I/O don't know if im able to config it correctly or are there other config parameters need to configure and which are those please let me know if any one has done this before.
