## [`run_riscv_arch_test.sh`](run_riscv_arch_test.sh): NEORV32 RISC-V Architecture Test Framework
|
|
|
|
This script tests the NEORV32 Processor for RISC-V compatibility using the
|
|
[official RISC-V architecture test suite v2+](https://github.com/riscv/riscv-arch-test).
|
|
The core's HDL sources are *simulated* using `GHDL` to provide a virtual execution platform for the test framework:
|
|
|
|
* `rv32i_m/C` - compressed instructions
|
|
* `rv32i_m/I` - base ISA
|
|
* `rv32i_m/M` - hardware integer multiplication and division
|
|
* `rv32i_m/privilege` - privileged architecture
|
|
* `rv32i_m/Zifencei` - instruction stream synchronization (for example for self-modifying code)
|
|
|
|
:warning: The RISC-V GCC toolchain (`riscv{32|64}-unknown-elf`) is required for program compilation, and the simulation
|
|
depends on `simple/ghdl_sim.sh`.
|
|
|
|
To execute all the supported tests open a terminal and run [`./sim/run_riscv_arch_test.sh`](run_riscv_arch_test.sh),
|
|
which does the following:
|
|
|
|
* Make a local copy of the NEORV32 `rtl` folder in `work/`, to keep the project's core files clean.
|
|
* Clone (as `git submodule`) the [riscv-arch-test repository](https://github.com/riscv/riscv-arch-test) into `sw/isa-test/riscv-arch-test`.
|
|
* Install (copy) the custom `neorv32` test target from `sw/isa-test/port-neorv32` to the
|
|
test suite's target folder `work/riscv-arch-test/riscv-target/neorv32`.
|
|
* Run the actual tests.
|
|
|
|
:warning: Simulating all the test cases takes quite some time. Some tests use an optimised description of IMEM
|
|
(`neorv32_imem.simple.vhd`), but others require the original because they execute self-modifying code.
|
|
|
|
:warning: If the simulation of a test does not generate any signature output at all or if the signature is truncated,
|
|
try increasing the simulation time by modiying the `SIM_TIME` variable when calling the test makefiles in `run_riscv_arch_test.sh`.
|
|
|
|
More datails regarding the actual simulation process can be found in the
|
|
[target's `README`](../sw/riscv-arch-test/port-neorv32/framework_v2.0/riscv-target/neorv32/README.md).
