| Veera | Hi | 11:35 |
|---|---|---|
| lkcl | hiya veera nice to see you back again. symbiflow works great | 11:46 |
| Veera | I read loading bitstream to ecp5 device is not working! | 11:47 |
| Veera | lkcl: eh, arty7-100T needed new openocd program for supporting bitstream loadup | 12:25 |
| lkcl | *compiling* for ecp5 was not "working" because the resources exceeded the capability of the FPGA, and of nextpnr-ecp5 to cope. i sorted that | 13:06 |
| lkcl | arty7-100t works fine with the standard version of openocd, it just needed the right config file | 13:06 |
| lkcl | patching openocd c source code is quite rare | 13:07 |
| Veera | ok | 13:23 |
| *** tplaten <tplaten!~isengaara@p200300ddff3f2d002e094dfffe000232.dip0.t-ipconnect.de> has left #libre-soc | 17:44 | |
| cesar | There is a new pull request to Amaranth to allow generating Xilinx bitstreams directly, without symbiflow, using nextpnr-xilinx and prjXray instead. | 20:06 |
| cesar | See: https://github.com/amaranth-lang/amaranth/pull/680 | 20:06 |
| cesar | Maybe it is easier to install than symbiflow... | 20:06 |
| lkcl | cesar, yes i already have it in, renamed to nmigen so we are not infringing the Trademark. | 21:07 |
| lkcl | and yes, symbiflow is proving problematic. vtr segfaults with the "official" version, runs out of resources on the latest master, and the developers are completely unresponsive on the IRC channel | 21:10 |
| lkcl | they were completely unresponsive even when the IBM-sponsored India Education Course people needed help. | 21:11 |
| lkcl | so nextpnr-xilinx is next on my list | 21:15 |
