I am genuinely confused of HOW to use the toolchain.

I would to simulate or1200 with the help of icarus verilog and the vcd files in the orpsocv2.

What to download and install in order?

I seem to have messed up the whole installation procedure.

I get this error

make[3]: or32-elf-gcc: Command not found

But if I type "which or32-elf-gcc"
I get:/opt/or32-elf/bin/or32-elf-gcc


How is this possible?

Do you use the precompiled tool chain or the one from SVN?
At which point do you get the make error? Is it during make rtl-tests in ORPSoC or during tool chain compilation?

I tried to use both and the results are same.


The error comes when I use the command "make rtl-tests" inside orpsocv2/sim/run

Can you clean everything out (try running "make distclean" in the sim/run path) and run:


Pastebin the output (there will be lots) if you can.

I execute as root

make disctlean

Do you really have need to be root to run the ORPSoC tests, and if so, have you checked that the root account has or32-elf-gcc in it's path?

There's no requirement to run things as root at all.

Please run an "echo $PATH" and "which or32-elf-gcc" and let us know the result.

I think we are close to the solution now!!! Thank you people!


when I'm root:

echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games

when I'm not root:

echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/bin:/opt/or32-elf-1.0rc1-x86/or32-elf-1.0rc1/bin:/opt/or1ksim/bin

If I try make rtl-tests V=1 when I'm NOT root the output is:

So what's the deal?

I suspect you have done the checkout of orpsoc as root (perhaps with sudo), setup the toolchain paths for the user, but then it doesn't work because as your user, george, it cannot write, and as root you don't have the toolchain path configured.

As a general tip, you should rarely be doing things, particularly development, as the super user (root.)

Potentially a quick way to fix all of this is to run from in your ~/Desktop path: "sudo chown -R george orpsocv2" to change the ownership of the orpsocv2 checkout to the user account, then try running the rtl sims again. If that doesn't work, do the checkout again but this time not as root, but as your user, george.

julius THANK YOU!!!!

Just used the "chown" command and it works like a charm!!!!! AWSOME!!!


I also, nice tip on how to work developing!!!

Thank you people!!!!
