1.What do you mean by board specific ?
2.Which file should I modify?
3.From which file this bootm command is called?And where do I find this
file in stack?

This is software,so everything is possible, if you assign sufficient
resources to the task ;-)
How can I add such functionality in U-boot?
Yes, this is not difficult.
Where to chage the code for the same?
The clean way would be to add a (board specific) command to either
make accessable (so you can use the itest command on them) or to
compare (so that you can use plain "if") the time stamps of two
images.
Assume your command "is_newer_img" takes the addresses of two legacy
image files and returns true (i. e. with a zero return code) if this
is the case, then you could just write:
if is_newer_img ${kernel_1_addr} ${kernel_2_addr}
then bootm ${kernel_1_addr}
else bootm ${kernel_2_addr}
fi
Alternatively, for a quick& dirty test or show case, you could of
course peek directly at the ih_time entry of the image_header
structure. This would not even need any new code, existing features
would be sufficient.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
