| jess | lkcl: there we go | 15:45 |
|---|---|---|
| lkcl | ah! | 15:45 |
| lkcl | thx jess :) | 15:45 |
| lkcl | new trick for me :) | 15:45 |
| jess | no problem | 15:45 |
| *** jess <jess!~jess@libera/staff/jess> has left #libre-soc | 15:45 | |
| lkcl | Las[m], justinrestivo[m]: i was able to get arty a7 symbiflow up and running to build blinky lights. | 15:46 |
| lkcl | which once i had the dependencies listed here installed https://github.com/SymbiFlow/symbiflow-examples/blob/master/xc7/environment.yml | 15:46 |
| lkcl | went quite well | 15:46 |
| lkcl | gcc-riscv64-elf-newlib obviously was not needed | 15:47 |
| lkcl | vtr didn't need the GUI, built fine without x11 libraries. | 15:49 |
| Las[m] | Thanks! | 15:51 |
| lkcl | the reason i mention it is because the Arty A7-100t is actually a really good mid-end low-budget FPGA board... oh err which happens to be in stock | 15:52 |
| lkcl | the architecture definitions can be (sigh) obtained with a series of wgets, here: https://symbiflow-examples.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-symbiflow.html#prerequisites | 15:53 |
| lkcl | i will investigate whether those can actually just be copied from the original repo rather than downloaded from a google-trusted server | 15:53 |
| justinrestivo[m] | lkcl: cool! I'm happy to see the arty pop up again. Had a good experience with it back when I was in school (though not with symbiflow). Wish I still had it... | 18:06 |
| lkcl | justinrestivo[m], neat | 18:39 |
| lkcl | i really like that you can get PMODs for it. so i got an AC97 audio one, a VGA one, SDMMC and a couple others | 18:40 |
| lkcl | Las[m], justinrestivo[m], that's interesting: https://github.com/SymbiFlow/nixpkgs | 18:44 |
| lkcl | also someone on #symbiflow mentioned this: | 19:10 |
| lkcl | <kd2cca> Locally I have a few things in our nix-shell that may be of interest as well: https://github.com/RAPcores/rapcores/tree/main/nix | 19:10 |
| lkcl | <kd2cca> https://github.com/HackerFoo/nix-symbiflow | 19:11 |
| lkcl | ah ha! https://github.com/HackerFoo/nix-symbiflow/commit/1dfc1d4de7c70b4a55b892f730428acb33e9bbd0 | 19:14 |
| lkcl | okaaay, so there's a whooole stack here - fasm, prjxray, symbiflow-arch-defs, vtr | 19:16 |
| lkcl | https://github.com/HackerFoo/nix-symbiflow/commits/master | 19:16 |
| lkcl | it's a bit of a mess, includes updating to master branch for vtr rather than a specific tag | 19:16 |
| justinrestivo[m] | Wow, this looks like quite the effort. I'm keen to clone and play with it... | 19:46 |
| lkcl | yeah it's a good find, thanks to kd2cca on #symbiflow | 20:09 |
