Generation of verilog file for rocket chip

[srishti-sr]

I am a beginner working with rocket chip generator for my project but I am not able to generate the verilog file for it and facing this error. I am using an apple M1 chip macOS. I started with cloning the repository,installing the rocket tools for Mac (https://github.com/riscv-software-src/homebrew-riscv), jdk 17.0.10, sbt 1.9.9, Mill 0.11.7 and tried to generate the verilog. how can I resolve these errors?

You need to have firtool installed since that's what's doing the verilog generation. The project has moved to using nix for it's dependencies/environment management so you should try getting that set up.

I have set up nix in my system but how can I install firtool

[cap-oglu]

run nix develop, it will probably download and build tools which is necessary and includes firtool, if you want to download firtool binaries explicitly, download it from circt releases.

I have similar troubles - got the latest firtool binaries from circt, and getting an error because option -dedup does not exist there, just -no-dedup. Removing -dedup from build.sc allows make verilog to not error out, but the next one form the README make verilog CONFIG=DefaultSmallConfig still errors out with [build.sc] [47/53] zincReportCachedProblems Cannot resolve emulator[freechips.rocketchip.system.TestHarness,DefaultSmallConfig].mfccompiler.compile. Try mill resolve emulator._ or mill resolve __.compile to see what's available. Would be great if the README was more up to date (firtool is not mentioned at all).

[cap-oglu]

make verilog CONFIG = freechips.rocketchip.system.DefaultSmallConfig would not error out. Because when you write make verilog CONFIG=DefaultSmallConfig it looks for [freechips.rocketchip.system.TestHarness,DefaultSmallConfig] but it should look for [freechips.rocketchip.system.TestHarness,freechips.rocketchip.system.DefaultSmallConfig]

Beginners to rocket-chip should refer to chipyard for an integrated development environment https://github.com/ucb-bar/chipyard

[Amagicman]

I followed this tutorial =》https://github.com/ucb-bar/chipyard =》 ./build-setup.sh riscv-tools # or esp-tools

Completed the following steps： -s 1 initializing Conda environment

-s 2 initializing Chipyard submodules

-s 3 initializing toolchain collateral (Spike, PK, tests, libgloss)

-s 4 initializing ctags

-s 5 pre-compiling Chipyard Scala sources

when I make verilog in (base) hang@vm:~/work/lx002/chipyard/generators/rocket-chip$ make verilog

=>I have similar troubles too,How can I solve this problem

(base) hang@vm:~/work/lx002/chipyard/generators/rocket-chip$ make verilog cd /home/hang/work/lx002/chipyard/generators/rocket-chip && mill emulator[freechips.rocketchip.system.TestHarness,freechips.rocketchip.system.DefaultConfig].mfccompiler.compile
