GDB Debugging with JTAG on Ariane |

Hi,
I have problems using the JTAG debugging connection with GDB for the Ariane Softcore. The Genesys 2 Board is connected to my PC via JTAG. I have OpenOCD with RISC-V support installed on my machine and it seems to connect just fine:
Code: ~/Desktop/ariane $ openocd -f fpga/ariane.cfg
Open On-Chip Debugger 0.10.0+dev-00828-gde00906eb (2019-11-25-14:04)
Licensed under GNU GPL v2
For bug reports, read
http://openocd.org/doc/doxygen/bugs.html
Info : auto-selecting first available session transport "jtag". To override use 'transport select <transport>'.
Info : clock speed 1000 kHz
Info : JTAG tap: riscv.cpu tap/device found: 0x00000001 (mfg: 0x000 (<invalid>), part: 0x0000, ver: 0x0)
Info : datacount=2 progbufsize=8
Info : Examined RISC-V core; found 1 harts

Ready for Remote Connections
Info : Listening on port 6666 for tcl connections
Info : Listening on port 4444 for telnet connections
Info : accepting 'gdb' connection on tcp/3333
This does look quite similar to the output in the Ariane git with the exception of this line:
Info : JTAG tap: riscv.cpu tap/device found: 0x00000001 (mfg: 0x000 (<invalid>), part: 0x0000, ver: 0x0)
I don't know whether this causes the problem or not gdb seems to connect just fine.
Okay, now to the actual problem. If I connect gdb and load the binary (a simple hello world), the PC points to _start. Unfortunately, _start contains loads of unimp instructions and does not redirect the program flow to the main function. Thus, if I do a continue, nothing happens. Same goes for break main etc. as the main function is apparently never called. See the GDB output below:
Code: Reading symbols from ./out...

(gdb) cont
Continuing.
Interestingly, if I disassemble the _start function in a local GDB Session, it looks like this:
Code: (gdb) disassemble _start

Am I missing something here? Do I need an extra GDB command to load the _start funtion or does it have to be compiled in a specific way? I compiled the binary with riscv64-unknown-elf-gcc test.c -o out and also tried adding -ffreestanding.
Thank you!

Hi,
In PULPino environment there are some HEX Files getting generated while i tried to run testcase. So my query is where the conversion from C to HEX file is taking place (code & path).
thanks in advance.

PULPissimo Synthesis and Clock Distribution |

Hi all,
First of all, thanks a lot for your help and support.
I was wondering if there is a synthesis - clean version of PULPissimo that's already released to the public. If not, is there any document / way to understand how the clock the distribution is going ?
What I understand, correct me if I am wrong, that in the case of:
1- FPGA, u r using a reference clock of 200 MHz to generate two internal clocks by divisions: A- Soc_clk = 20Mhz , B- periph_clk = 10Mhz.
2- In case of the RTL simulation, you r feeding from the TB a reference clock of ~ 32KHz and somehow, using DCO, FLL generating two clocks soc_clk = periph_clk = 17.5 MHz.
If I am correct, are this on-chip clock generation modules synthesizable? Or they should be mapped to IPs in the PDK ?
---------
Assuming that I want to drive the whole chip using the external clock, is it save to just remove all the " fll, DCO.. etc" modules and pass the signal through the modules to all the system components ? I mean the PAD_xtal_clk, pass it for the fc_subsystem, l2_memory .. etc and the system can work on that clock ? I already did simulation and it worked, but I am making sue that I didn't miss anything as I didn't test the system exhaustively.
Thanks in advance.

Pulpissimo make error when making hello example |

Hello! I do the flow according to the Pulpissimo's README.md. But I meet a make error when I execute the flow at the step "Downloading and running tests ".I change directory to pulp-rt-examples/hello, and execute make clean all run ,then a "No Such File or Directory" error appears. I cat the Makefile,maybe the PULP_SDK_HOME is undefined. Do I need to set the PULP_SDK_HOME in my .bashrc manually?
Code: [jiaopy@localhost Jproject]$ cd pulp-rt-examples/hello/
[jiaopy@localhost hello]$ make clean all run
Makefile:6: /install/rules/pulp_rt.mk: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `/install/rules/pulp_rt.mk'. Stop.
[jiaopy@localhost hello]$ cat Makefile
PULP_APP = test
PULP_APP_FC_SRCS = test.c
PULP_APP_HOST_SRCS = test.c
PULP_CFLAGS = -O3 -g
include $(PULP_SDK_HOME)/install/rules/pulp_rt.mk

Set defines of modules |
Posted by: LPLA - 11-12-2019, 04:12 PM - Forum: PULP General questions
- Replies (2)

Hello,
throughout the code you can find things like:
Code: `ifdef QUENTIN_SCM
...
`endif
or
Code: `ifndef PULP_FPGA_EMUL
...
`else
...
`endif
and there are two things about this that i just couldn't figure out.
First: Where are those defines? Let's say i want to use Quentin, where would i put `define QUENTIN_SCM (assuming this is the correct syntax).
Second: Assume i am having three different modules for multiplication mul1, mul2, mul3.
Every module has additional inputs if you want to do floating point multiplication.
This is handled by:
Code: `ifdef FP_ENABLE
... (additional inputs)
`endif
I tested all three modules with Questasim using a testbench and created a .do file for them.
Now inside my .do file i have the following command:
Code: set ms [concat mul1 mul2 mul3]
foreach m ${ms} {
vlog -64 +define+FP_ENABLE ../multis/${m}/rtl/${m}.sv
}
If i now try to use my modules somewhere in PULPissimo i get some errors from my makefile that tell me some ports of the module are missing.
Basically the above command tells the modules mul1, mul2, mul3 that FP_ENABLE is defined and therefore the additional ports are instantiated.
Unfortunately i don't know how to use the same idea when trying to instantiate a mul-module in PULPissimo.
It is important to note that i don't want to change any line of code in the mul-modules!
Does anyone know a way how to tell the modules its defines just like the above command does?
Thank you.

Ariane Performance Measures |
Posted by: jthoma - 11-12-2019, 08:08 AM - Forum: PULP General questions

Hi,
i am trying to do some performance measurements on the Ariane processor and therefore, I would like to use the cycle count from the RDCYCLE instruction. My code compiles fine, however, if I run it, I get a “illegal instruction” error. The following is the critical code snippet (both the CSRRS and RDCYCLE lead to the same error)
Code: unsigned long get_clk(){
unsigned long timer = 0;
//__asm__ volatile("CSRRS %[result], cycle, x0\n\t" : [result]"=r"(timer)::);
__asm__("RDCYCLE %[result]\n\t" : [result]"=r"(timer)::);
return timer;
}
The RISC-V “Instruction Set Manual II: Privileged Architecture” states that the cycle CSR entry should be readable from user mode. I figured that this might not be the case in Ariane which would be fine if I could get to supervisor mode somehow. I looked into writing a kernel module that would give me access to the performance measures. Unfortunately, this turned out to be quite challenging since I can neither compile code on the FGPA nor use insmod to install my kernel module. Is there an easy way to get access to the cycle timer?
Thank you!
Jan
-- Edit: The same happens if I just use the built-in C time() function...

configparser module error when installing Pulpissimo SDK |
Posted by: jmmarostegui - 10-28-2019, 01:50 PM - Forum: PULP General questions

I have tried to install the Pulpissimo SDK, but without success. I have searched in the Forum for a similar problem, but I couldn't find it. Therefore, I'm posting here the sequence of commands I'm issuing and the final result. Any help will be appreciated.
I'm working on a clean Linux 16.04.06 Install. Following the information available in GitHub, here is the sequence I'm following:
1 - sudo apt install git python3-pip gawk texinfo libgmp-dev libmpfr-dev libmpc-dev swig3.0 libjpeg-dev lsb-core doxygen python-sphinx sox graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat libsdl2-dev libswitch-perl libftdi1-dev cmake scons libsndfile1-dev
2 - sudo pip3 install twisted prettytable pyelftools openpyxl xlsxwriter pyyaml numpy configparser pyvcd
3 - sudo pip3 install configparser
4 - cd /opt
5 - sudo mkdir riscv
6 - cd riscv
7 - git clone https://github.com/pulp-platform/pulp-ri...-toolchain
8 - cd pulp-riscv-gnu-toolchain
9 - git submodule update --init --recursive
10 - sudo apt-get install autoconf automake autotools-dev curl libmpc-dev libmpfr-dev libgmp-dev gawk build-essential bison flex texinfo gperf libtool patchutils bc zlib1g-dev
11 - sudo ./configure --prefix=/opt/riscv --with-arch=rv32imc --with-cmodel=medlow --enable-multilib
12 - make
13 - export PULP_RISCV_GCC_TOOLCHAIN=‘/opt/riscv’
14 - cd /opt/riscv
15 - sudo git clone https://github.com/pulp-platform/pulp-builder.git
16 - cd pulp-builder
17 - source configs/pulpissimo.sh
18 - sudo ./scripts/build-gvsoc
This last command fails with the following error:
...
make: Entering directory '/opt/riscv/pulp-builder/archi'
scons
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
ImportError: No module named configparser:
File "/opt/riscv/pulp-builder/archi/SConstruct", line 4:
import pulp_config as plpconfig
File "/opt/riscv/pulp-builder/install/ws/python/pulp_config.py", line 23:
import configparser
Makefile:2: recipe for target 'build' failed
make: *** [build] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/opt/riscv/pulp-builder/archi'
I get exactly the same result if, instead of command 18 i issues the following three commands:
./scripts/clean
./scripts/update-runtime
./scripts/build-runtime
Since module configparser was apparently installed in step 3 I don't know what may be wrong.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
