| olofk | aloha | 09:12 |
|---|---|---|
| arokux1 | hi, it seems that development on openrisc has ceased. is it true? | 12:28 |
| ams | arokux1: what makes you think that? | 12:40 |
| arokux1 | ams, outdated wiki page :) | 12:41 |
| ams | arokux1: update it ... | 12:41 |
| arokux1 | ams, i'm just interested if the project is alive. not really blaming anybody. | 12:42 |
| stekern | arokux1: it's very much alive and kicking | 12:42 |
| stekern | we're just not excellent in the wiki page updating department | 12:43 |
| arokux1 | stekern, what are the best ways to start penetrating into the project then? mailing list, irc, etc? | 12:43 |
| stekern | olofk: I'd like some orpsocv3 quickstart hand holding, can that be arranged? first, how do I build a board? | 12:44 |
| ams | arokux1: updateing the wiki :-) | 12:44 |
| stekern | arokux1: mailing lists and irc sounds like a good start, yes | 12:44 |
| stekern | what area are you interested in? | 12:45 |
| arokux1 | stekern, i'm not sure yet, maybe some high level SoC designer view for the start. | 12:46 |
| arokux1 | stekern, so that i do not get lost in details, could be more high level than that, though. | 12:49 |
| arokux1 | stekern, still there? | 14:53 |
| stekern | yes, on and off | 14:59 |
| stekern | hard to guide you when you have no specific goal | 15:01 |
| stekern | you can start looking at the existing popular openrisc SoCs, orpsocv2, orpsocv3 and minsoc | 15:03 |
| stekern | arokux1: what specifically did you find outdated in the wiki btw? | 15:04 |
| arokux1 | stekern, news section for example was not updated for a long time, that is why I just wanted to know if smth still happens | 15:05 |
| olofk | stekern: I wanna hold your hand now | 17:14 |
| olofk | Create a subdirectory under systems with the name of your board. Put your board-specific files wherever you want in there. I guess a directory named source, or rtl/verilog would be the most common | 17:16 |
| olofk | Oh.. and it currently only supports the quartus flow btw, so I hope you got an Altera based board | 17:18 |
| olofk | Before you start, we should perhaps clarify if you are using a system-wide installation, or running directly from the git/tar.gz version | 17:23 |
| olofk | I would go for system-wide. That is so much cooler | 17:24 |
| olofk | Or perhaps you meant build an existing board. In that case, there aren't any. I have a port for ordb2a that a former colleague did, but I want to do some cleanup on that before I push it | 17:39 |
| stekern | oh, ok, I meant existing board | 18:18 |
| stekern | but if there are none, it's no wonder I couldn't find'em ;) | 18:19 |
| stekern | but what I really wanted to do was make a board port for sockit, so it's all right | 18:19 |
| stekern | and altera that is ;) | 18:20 |
| stekern | I'm a bit confused about the system wide install though, what exactly is installed to the system? | 18:20 |
| stekern | I can probably figure this things out if I start digging, but think of this as a "new dumb user experience test" | 18:21 |
| stekern | ...instead of an old dumb user ;) | 18:22 |
| mor1kx | [mor1kx] skristiansson pushed 2 new commits to master: https://github.com/openrisc/mor1kx/compare/1d7f430d40ca...c295a868f80c | 19:28 |
| mor1kx | mor1kx/master e9e8443 Stefan Kristiansson: immu: register spr read result for stalled accesses... | 19:28 |
| mor1kx | mor1kx/master c295a86 Stefan Kristiansson: immu: separate busy and tlb_reload_busy signals... | 19:28 |
| stekern | we really should fix that fishy cdc in ethoc... | 19:30 |
| stekern | now it's a 50/60 chance that it synthesize into something that's working/not working | 19:30 |
| olofk | stekern: System-wide installation installs a python script in $prefix/bin and some python libraries in the correct places. The actual RTL and system descriptions can be placed anywhere. | 20:37 |
| olofk | I'll probably move the non-python stuff to a separate repository so that they can be updated separately | 20:38 |
| olofk | And yes, that CDC in ethoc is a bit scary. I have wanted to rewrite the whole wishbone handling for a while now, but haven't had the time | 20:38 |
