Introduction

This is a template repository for those who want to develop RTL based on rocket-chip and even chipyard, being able to edit all sources from chisel environments without publish them to local ivy. You can add your own submodule in build.sc.
For more information please visit mill documentation after adding your own code, you can add your library to playground dependency, and re-index Intellij to add your own library.

IDE support

For mill use

mill mill.bsp.BSP/install

then open by your favorite IDE, which supports BSP

Pending PRs

Philosophy of this repository is fast break and fast fix. This repository always tracks remote developing branches, it may need some patches to work, make patch will append below in sequence:

barstools ucb-bar/barstools#101
firrtl chipsalliance/firrtl#2276
rocket-chip chipsalliance/rocket-chip#2810
hwacha ucb-bar/hwacha#30
testchipip ucb-bar/testchipip#126
fpga-shells sifive/fpga-shells#161
fpga-shells sifive/fpga-shells#162

Why not Chipyard

  1. Building Chisel and FIRRTL from sources, get rid of any version issue. You can view Chisel/FIRRTL source codes from IDEA.
  2. No more make+sbt: Scala dependencies are managed by mill -> bsp -> IDEA, minimal IDEA indexing time.
  3. flatten git submodule in dependency, get rid of submodule recursive update.

So generally, this repo is the fast and cleanest way to start your Chisel project codebase.

Always keep update-to-date

You can use this template and start your own job by appending commits on it. GitHub Action will automatically bump all dependencies, you can merge or rebase sequencer/master to your branch.

System Dependencies

Currently, only support Arch Linux, macOS and Debian sid, you can PR your own distributions, like Fedora.
Notice Ubuntu and CentOS is unacceptable, since they have a stale package repository, not possible use official package manager to install these requirements, if you insist using them, please install requirements below by your self.

SanityTests

This package is the standalone tests to check is bumping correct or not, served as the unittest, this also can be a great example to illustrate usages.

NOTICE: SanityTests also contains additional system dependencies: **SanityTests do not support Mac, since LLVM package doesn't contain lld. **

  • clang: bootrom cross compiling and veriltor C++ -> binary compiling
    • Arch Linux: clang
    • Debian: clang
  • llvm: gnu toolchain replacement
    • Arch Linux: llvm

  • lld: LLVM based linker
    • Arch Linux: lld

    • Debian: ninja-build

rocketchip

This package is a replacement to RocketChip Makefile based generator, it directly generate a simple RocketChip emulator with verilator and linked to spike.

mill sanitytests.rocketchip

vcu118

This package uses rocketchip and fpga-shells to elaborate FPGA bitstream generator and debug script with board VCU118

mill sanitytests.vcu118

If you wanna alter this to your own board, you can choose implmenting your own Shell to replace VCU118Shell in this test.
