This fork includes the polybench, a benchmark suite due to Louis-Noël Pouchet that challenges compilers. This allows to test various stuff without having to boot a full fledged Linux, in particular when using QEMU's plugins.
This ought to be compiled with a toolchain (https://github.com/riscv-collab/riscv-gnu-toolchain) configured with the --with-cmodel=medany
flags, to avoid the infamous relocation truncated to fit ... message.
To run a program with QEMU, just refer to the original README below, but add the -bios none
option as QEMU loads opensbi
by default now.
====================== Original README =============================
Simple machine mode program to probe RISC-V control and status registers.
riscv-probe currently builds for Spike, QEMU and the SiFive E21 core. riscv-probe is a testing tool designed be used to compare CSRs (Control and Status Registers) between mutliple RISC-V simulators and RISC-V hardware implementations.
riscv-probe contains libfemto which is a lightweight bare-metal C library conforming to a reduced set ot the POSIX.1-2017 / IEEE 1003.1-2017 standard. libfemto can be used as a starting point for bare metal RISC-V programs that require interrupt handling, basic string routines and printf.
A recent version of riscv-tools
with a multilib build of RISC-V GCC.
The build system uses CROSS_COMPILE
as the toolchain prefix and expects
the toolchain to be present in the PATH
environment variable. The default
value for CROSS_COMPILE
is riscv64-unknown-elf-
however this can be
overridden e.g. make CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-
. The build
system expects a multilib toolchain as it uses the same toolchain to build
for riscv32 and riscv64. Make sure to use --enable-multilib
when
configuring riscv-gnu-toolchain.
The examples are all built with -nostartfiles -nostdlib -nostdinc
so either
the RISC-V GCC Newlib toolchain or RISC-V GCC Glibc Linux toolchain can be used.
To build the examples after environent setup, type:
make
To invoke the probe example in spike and RISC-V QEMU:

libfemto is a lightweight bare-metal C library for embedded RISC-V development. libfemto provides:
- Reduced set of the POSIX.1-2017 / IEEE 1003.1-2017 standard
- Simple lightweight hardware configuration mechanism
- RISC-V machine mode functions and macros
- Console and power device drivers
libfemto implements a reduced set of the POSIX.1-2017 / IEEE 1003.1-2017
standard, with the addition of glibc's getauxval
API to access hardware
configuration in an auxiliary vector (__auxv
) that contains tuples
describing the target environment. The auxiliary vector is intended as a
lightweight mechanism to pass dynamic configuration information on embedded
targets, serving as an alternative to compile time constants used during
hardware initialization. The auxiliary vector API has been repurposed to
allow retrieval of hardware configuration parameters such as clock
frequencies and device base addresses for use as a compact alternative to
(DTB) Device Tree Binary, which is not available on small embedded targets.
libfemto contains the following device drivers:
- HTIF (Host Target Interface)
- NS16550A UART Console
- SiFive UART Console
- SiFive Test Device
- Semihosting Syscalls
This project contains a simple build system that allows building applications targeting multiple embedded environments. A distinguishing characteristic of the build system is that program objects do not need to be recompiled to target a different environment, rather they are relinked with a different hardware configuration and setup function. The config object causes the correct drivers to be linked via compile time dependencies expressed by symbol references. The following environments are currently supported:
- default - environment where IO defaults to
ebreak
- spike- the RISC-V ISA Simulator Golden Model
- virt - the RISC-V VirtIO Virtual Machine
- qemu-sifive_e - QEMU Functional Model of the SiFive E Series
- qemu-sifive_u - QEMU Functional Model of the SiFive U Series
- coreip-e2-arty - SiFive E2 CoreIP Arty A7 FPGA evaluation image
To create a new environment simply add a directory to env
with two files:
default.lds
- linker script describing the target's memory layoutconfig.c
- environment specific configuration
The following is an example configuration from env/<boardname>/config.c
showing the auxiliary vector used by getauxval
via the setup
function
called by _start
before entering main
.
auxval_t __auxv[] = {
{ UART0_CLOCK_FREQ, 32000000 },
{ UART0_BAUD_RATE, 115200 },
{ SIFIVE_UART0_CTRL_ADDR, 0x20000000 },
{ SIFIVE_TEST_CTRL_ADDR, 0x4000 },
{ 0, 0 }
};
void setup()
{
/*
* clock setup code should be placed here and should modify the
* uart clock speed before calling register_console, which calls
* uart_init and reads the uart clock speed from the config array.
*/
register_console(&console_sifive_uart);
register_poweroff(&poweroff_sifive_test);
}
The build system automatically includes any directory added to examples
which contains a rules.mk
file.
The following is the rules.mk
file from the hello example:
$ cat examples/hello/rules.mk
hello_objs = hello.o
and hello.c
$ cat examples/hello/hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
printf("hello\n");
}
libfemto linker scripts define the following special symbols:
Symbol | Value |
---|---|
_text_start |
start of .text section |
_text_end |
end of .text section |
_rodata_start |
start of .rodata section |
_rodata_end |
end of .rodata section |
_data_start |
start of .data section |
_data_end |
end of .data section |
_bss_start |
start of .bss section |
_bss_end |
end of .bss section |
_memory_start |
start of RAM |
_memory_end |
end of RAM |
The symbols example program shows how to access these special symbols. They can be used for example to locate data section in a flat image in ROM to copy into memory and to zero the bss section.
Simple example program that sets up PMP (Physical Memory Protection)
to allow all memory accesses and then switches to U mode. The code to
set up PMP to allow all memory access is pmp_allow_all()
in machine.h
.
The code is derived from bbl.
Note: PMP is enabled by default on systems that implement it, so it is mandatory to include code to configure PMPs to allow memory access when switching from M mode to S mode or U mode, otherwise memory accesses will trap.
Simple enclave example using RISC-V PMP (Physical Memory Protection)
Physical memory protection is enabled for the program text (RX) program data (RW), UART, and the hart is switch to U mode, however, there is only one program and the default trap vector points into the executable text, so traps are handled in M mode, in the same executable text segment.
A future example will load a second process and provide ecall APIs to the process running in the protected enclave.
riscv-probe
is a utility that probes the Control and Status Register
address space of a RISC-V emulator, FPGA or board:
