Rust on Litex SoC (RISC-V)

Using Rust on a customized LiteX SoC (RISC-V).

Prerequisites

Clone the repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/wuhanstudio/litex-soc-icesugar-rust
$ cd litex-soc-icesugar-rust
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update

Install LiteX:

$ mkdir python-litex && cd python-litex
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enjoy-digital/litex/master/litex_setup.py
$ chmod +x litex_setup.py
$ ./litex_setup.py --init --install --user `whoami` --config=full
$ sudo apt-get install python3-sphinx python3-sphinxcontrib*
$ pip3 install meson sphinx sphinxcontrib-wavedrom

Install IceStorm:

$ git clone https://github.com/YosysHQ/icestorm.git
$ cd icestorm
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential clang bison flex libreadline-dev \
                     gawk tcl-dev libffi-dev git mercurial graphviz   \
                     xdot pkg-config python python3 libftdi-dev \
                     qt5-default python3-dev libboost-all-dev cmake libeigen3-dev
$ make -j$(nproc)
$ sudo make install

Install Yosys:

$ git clone https://github.com/YosysHQ/yosys.git
$ cd yosys
$ make -j$(nproc)
$ sudo make install

Install Nextpnr:

$ git clone https://github.com/YosysHQ/nextpnr
$ cd nextpnr
$ cmake . -DARCH=ice40
$ make -j$(nproc)
$ sudo make install

For C development:

$ sudo ./litex_setup.py --gcc=riscv

For Rust development:

$ rustup target add riscv32imac-unknown-none-elf
$ cargo install cargo-binutils
$ rustup component add llvm-tools-preview

You can upload bitstream and firmware to Icesugar board using the tool icesprog in side the folder icesugar/tools/.

$ sudo apt install libusb-dev libhidapi-dev 
$ cd litex-soc-icesugar-rust
$ sudo cp icesugar/tools/icesprog* /usr/bin/

LiteX SoC

$ cd litex-soc-icesugar-rust

# This command uses our custom config
$ python3 -m soc.targets.muselab_icesugar --build --doc
$ python3 -m soc.targets.muselab_icesugar --flash

# This command uses the upstream default config
# python3 -m litex_boards.targets.muselab_icesugar --build --doc
# python3 -m litex_boards.targets.muselab_icesugar --flash

C Demo

# This command creates the folder demo that includes the source code
# litex_bare_metal_demo --build-path=./build/muselab_icesugar/

$ cd demo
$ make
$ icesprog -w demo.bin -o 0x40000

Rust Demo

$ cd app
$ cargo objcopy --target riscv32i-unknown-none-elf --release -- -O binary app.bin
$ icesprog -o 0x40000 app.bin

This Rust library icesugar-pac was generated using svd2rust:

$ cargo install svd2rust
$ python -m soc.targets.muselab_icesugar --csr-json csr.json --timer-uptime --build --csr-svd icesugar.svd

$ cargo new --lib icesugar-pac && cd icesugar-pac
$ cp ../icesugar.svd ./

$ svd2rust -i icesugar.svd --target riscv
$ mv lib.rs src/

# Then manually added dependencies to Cargo.toml
