| stekern | olofk: yeah, it' | 02:31 |
|---|---|---|
| stekern | s one of the worst "let the programmer shoot himself in the foot" I know of | 02:31 |
| stekern | usually I enjoy shooting myself in the foot | 02:32 |
| jeremybennett | olofk: Aim central. We haven't got the venue confirmed, but its unlikely to be far out of town. There is a Youth Hostel pretty close to the centre, and a range of hotels. Look up B&B in Cambridge on Google is probably best. | 07:16 |
| nvmind | good morning | 07:18 |
| nvmind | well... or whatever based on your timezone :) | 07:19 |
| stekern | morning nvmind | 07:29 |
| nvmind | I was about to build the toolchain for openrisc but I am a bit | 07:35 |
| nvmind | confused on which instruction should I follow | 07:35 |
| nvmind | if those on the wiki or those on openrisc.net | 07:36 |
| nvmind | which is the preferred way :) ? | 07:39 |
| stekern | if you are building the or1k toolchain, use the wiki instructions | 07:40 |
| stekern | is it a baremetal or linux toolchain you intend to build? | 07:41 |
| nvmind | baremetal | 07:48 |
| nvmind | I am developing a SoC based on openrisc as part of my thesis | 07:49 |
| nvmind | and I would like to test on the simulator some little kernel | 07:50 |
| nvmind | before simulating its execution with icarus :) | 07:50 |
| nvmind | my final goal is to add SoC generation to a HLS tool developed in my university | 07:52 |
| juliusb | nvmind: hi, which tool is that? | 10:23 |
| nvmind | juliusb: http://panda.dei.polimi.it | 10:27 |
| nvmind | juliusb: but the release published is really old :) | 10:29 |
| juliusb | ah OK | 10:29 |
| nvmind | do you know it? | 10:29 |
| juliusb | no, never seen it before | 10:30 |
| juliusb | so you're thinking of generating the SoC top-level? | 10:30 |
| juliusb | what description files are you thinking of using? If you used something like IP-XACT that would be extremely interesting... | 10:30 |
| nvmind | yes and attach to the bus accelerator generated by the framework staring from plain C | 10:31 |
| nvmind | Yes part of the work is to write IP-XACT description of components | 10:32 |
| juliusb | bus accelerator? you mean just a usual bus switch thing? | 10:32 |
| nvmind | no... hw accelerator | 10:33 |
| nvmind | C function translated to verilog :) | 10:33 |
| nvmind | with the HLS framework | 10:33 |
| juliusb | OK, but the Verilog of the bus thing, that will just be a usual Wishbone thing or will you do ARM AMBA? | 10:34 |
| nvmind | wishbone :) | 10:35 |
| juliusb | all sounds good so far :) | 10:35 |
| nvmind | we really like Open Hardware :) | 10:35 |
| juliusb | how long do you have for this project? | 10:35 |
| nvmind | well I should be in a position that within a couple of months of full time work I should have a working prototype | 10:37 |
| nvmind | but I am working on the stuff that is building this thing up since a year. | 10:41 |
| juliusb | oh great | 10:41 |
| nvmind | http://mminutoli.github.io/howto-build-an-openrisc-toolchain.html | 12:11 |
| nvmind | any comment (technical or stylistic) is welcome :) | 12:11 |
| juliusb | did that work for you? | 12:13 |
| nvmind | yes | 12:13 |
| juliusb | excellent | 12:13 |
| juliusb | you know in the prefix you can put $USER for <user> and it should work | 12:16 |
| juliusb | or $HOME/.... | 12:16 |
| juliusb | because I'm sure you'll find people copy and paste that and it doesn't work | 12:16 |
| nvmind | right! | 12:16 |
| juliusb | so I'd add a command to make the install dir , ie. mkdir $HOME/or1k-toolchain | 12:17 |
| juliusb | then change the prefixes to that, too | 12:17 |
| olofk | nvmind: I'm working on some wishbone tools as part of ORPSoCv3. We might benefit from each other's work here. | 13:24 |
| olofk | The hackRF kickstarter is looking really good. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mossmann/hackrf-an-open-source-sdr-platform | 13:27 |
| win2mac_ | hey there | 15:11 |
| nvmind | hi | 15:46 |
| nvmind | olofk: I will be more than happy :) | 15:47 |
| stekern | looks like I'm not going to be able to make it the 12th after all... | 17:05 |
| jeremybennett | stekern: That's a shame | 17:31 |
| juliusb | ah no :( | 18:01 |
| stekern | yeah :( | 18:43 |
