"lowRISC is creating a fully open-sourced, Linux-capable, RISC-V-based SoC, that can be used either directly or as the basis for a custom design. We aim to complete our SoC design this year [2016]."
This coreboot port runs on the lowRISC bitstream for the Nexys 4 DDR FPGA development board.
Getting the bitstream
The newest bitstream is available at http://www.lowrisc.org/docs/debug-v0.3/fpga/ (you need the "standalone" .bit file). Because this bitstream implements a deprecated page table format (as specified in the RISC-V Privileged Specification 1.7), a new bitstream will be made available soon.
Booting coreboot
- make crossgcc-riscv
- select the board in menuconfig
- convert the board to an ELF file through util/riscvtools/make-spike-elf.sh
- Copy coreboot.elf on a µSD card as boot.bin
- Attach the Nexys4DDR to a computer over USB. Two serial ports, called /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 on linux, should appear. Connect to /dev/ttyUSB1 through microcom or a similar program.
- Boot the FPGA board with this µSD card
