## Cross-Compiling for RISCV on Linux or WSL for the DE0-NANO FPGA

### 2. Corss-Compiling C code for the RISCV picorv32 on WSL or on Linux.
2023-09-17 07:44:18 +00:00
```html
2023-09-17 07:35:19 +00:00
git clone https://gitea.squirrelnut.synology.me:5001/FPGALover/RISCV_picorv32_fpga
cd RISCV_picorv32_fpga/sw
make clean
make firmware/firmware.fpga
cp firmware/Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol* ../rtl/DE0-NANO
2023-09-17 07:44:18 +00:00
```
*Now you can compile or synthesize the FPGA harware using Quartus or any other Design tool*
2024-02-28 21:57:25 +00:00
### 3. Syhtesize the project on Quartus.
Open Quartus, and run the synthesis of the system, the project you can find it under "\RISCV_picorv32_fpga\rtl\DE0-NANO", and the memories generated in binaries:
```
$ ls -l ./rtl/DE0-NANO/ | grep "Memory"
Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol0.bin
Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol1.bin
Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol2.bin
Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol3.bin
```
So everytime you want to change your RISCV C code(sw\firmware\main.c), you would need to generate Memories to load them to the embedded memories, or find a way to change their content during runtime.
you can find that that these binaries are used by the file memory.v(xoro_top->Memory) which, on lines 32 to 35 of the Verilog description
```
initial begin
$readmemb("Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol0.bin",memory_1_symbol0);
$readmemb("Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol1.bin",memory_1_symbol1);
$readmemb("Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol2.bin",memory_1_symbol2);
$readmemb("Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol3.bin",memory_1_symbol3);
end
```
## Cross-Compiling for RISCV on Windows
### 1. Installation
You must download the latest RISCV precompiled binaries for your platform from: https://github.com/xpack-dev-tools/riscv-none-elf-gcc-xpack/releases/
in this case the architecture x64 for windows binaries(https://github.com/xpack-dev-tools/riscv-none-elf-gcc-xpack/releases/download/v13.2.0-2/xpack-riscv-none-elf-gcc-13.2.0-2-darwin-x64.tar.gz), then extract these under the folder C:\riscv_precompiled\
<span style="color:red">Note: If you change the location where you installed the RISC-V precompiled binaries, you need to modify line 3 of the file \sw\Makefile. This will be explained further in this manual </span>

### 2. Clone this repository
Open a CMD Clone this repository, or just simply download it somewhere on your hardrive.
```html
git clone https://gitea.squirrelnut.synology.me:5001/FPGALover/RISCV_picorv32_fpga
```
### 3. Install Python
Before you can cross compile, you need to have Python installed on your windows machine, make sure you install Python2.7 or Python3, in case you install python3, you would need to modify the variable "PYTHON_VER" at the line # 8 of the file \sw\Makefile. Also make sure that your python is register under the *Path* enviroment variables
2024-02-28 22:02:16 +00:00
open a CMD and check that you can summon python when you type "python" or "python3", just make sure it correspond to the Makefile name
```
> python
Python 3.11.7 (main, Dec 7 2023, 09:09:57) [GCC UCRT 13.2.0 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> exit()
```
2024-02-28 21:57:25 +00:00
### 4. Cross compile
Go to the directory RISCV_picorv32_fpga/sw using a CMD.
```html
cd RISCV_picorv32_fpga/sw
```
then write the command "make clean" to clean all the binaries downloaded with this repository, you should see:
```
> make clean
rm -vrf firmware/start.o firmware/irq.o firmware/print.o firmware/inch.o firmware/timer.o firmware/prng.o firmware/leds.o firmware/fftbench.o firmware/main.o \
firmware/firmware.elf firmware/firmware.bin firmware/firmware.hex firmware/firmware.mif firmware/firmware.map firmware/Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol*
removed `firmware/start.o'
removed `firmware/irq.o'
removed `firmware/print.o'
removed `firmware/inch.o'
removed `firmware/timer.o'
removed `firmware/prng.o'
removed `firmware/leds.o'
removed `firmware/fftbench.o'
removed `firmware/main.o'
removed `firmware/firmware.elf'
removed `firmware/firmware.bin'
removed `firmware/firmware.hex'
removed `firmware/firmware.mif'
removed `firmware/firmware.map'
removed `firmware/Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol0.bin'
removed `firmware/Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol1.bin'
removed `firmware/Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol2.bin'
removed `firmware/Memory.v_toplevel_memory_1_symbol3.bin'
```
after cleaning, you can simple write the command "make firmware/firmware.fpga" and you will see:
```

under this repo you can also find some prebuilt binaries for Linux and Windows, in case any of the servers was down, or you could not build it.
