No response: qemu-system-riscv64 -M microchip-icicle-kit ...

[eric-riscv]

Ubuntu 22.04 x64
sudo apt-get install qemu-system-misc minicom wget 7zip

Download the icicle image and hss.job file that apparently are installed by default on the icicle board and available for download somewhere in these discussions from a sharepoint site.

Extract files:
7zz x Icicle_kit_MTD_OOB_v1.1.6.7z
cd Icicle_kit_MTD_OOB_v1.1.6/

Resize the image:
qemu-img resize core-image-minimal-dev-icicle-kit-es-20201009114001.rootfs.wic 2G

Then run qemu:

sudo qemu-system-riscv64 -M microchip-icicle-kit -smp 5 -bios ICICLE_KIT_MTD_116_HSS.job -sd core-image-minimal-dev-icicle-kit-es-20201009114001.rootfs.wic -nic user,model=cadence_gem -nic tap,ifname=tap,model=cadence_gem,script=no -display none -serial stdio -chardev socket,id=serial1,path=serial1.sock,server=on,wait=on -serial chardev:serial1

and in a separate shell:

sudo minicom -D unix#serial1.sock

The result is always no output. I've tried custom image builds from source, hss builds from source, everything results in no output, blank shells. By example, yocto build from source:

... and qemu:

sudo qemu-system-riscv64 -M microchip-icicle-kit -smp 5 -bios payload.bin -sd mpfs-dev-cli-icicle-kit-es.wic -nic user,model=cadence_gem -nic tap,ifname=tap,model=cadence_gem,script=no -display none -serial stdio -chardev socket,id=serial1,path=serial1.sock,server=on,wait=on -serial chardev:serial1

... trying all three .bin files, and minicom, and all result in blank, nothing, hung with no output.

Any ideas how to get the emulator to work?

[AntonKrug]

The .job file is a bitstream to program the FPGA with FlashPro Express, not a bios. If you would have IPs in your fabric, then you would need to make a model mimicking their logic in qemu separately, you can't just give it the bitstream file.

As well with Renode, the platform needs to be described separately and not inferred from a job file.

Renode has bundled description of the Icicle board, could you try to run it on Renode?

On a side note, just in case you have SoftConsole installed, a newer version of SoftConsole will be released this month which will bundle a newer version of Renode.

[ConchuOD]

Renode has bundled description of the Icicle board, could you try to run it on Renode?

In addition, Renode is the emulator that we officially support - QEMU is a "community" port.
Upstream QEMU does not boot with recent versions of the HSS due to missing models for peripherals etc, so even
with a correct bios argument in your invocation, you'd not see anything anyway.

[eric-riscv]

FYI, this sequence seems to be an easy way to start running the Renode Icicle emulator with very little effort (just install docker?):

docker pull antmicro/renode
docker run -ti antmicro/renode bash
renode --disable-xwt --console
s @scripts/single-node/icicle-kit.resc
uart_connect sysbus.mmuart1

Redirecting the input to sysbus.mmuart1, press to quit...

Then the shell prompt for the icicle linux shell is available in a terminal.

[AntonKrug]

It crashes the same way when you run the commands as I given to you without you adding extra arguments --disable-xwt --console ?

[eric-riscv]

There's a menu in SoftConsole, Run -> External Tools -> PolarFire Icicle Renode emulation (something like that), and the error there was:

[AntonKrug]

Newer SoftConsole with a newer Renode should be released any time now. Would you be willing to retry it again there?

So far we are not exactly sure what could be a problem, but one speculation could be a issue with libc compatibility, when something is built to run on distros such as RHEL 6 then running it on very new distro could be a cause of problems too. But that is for now just a speculation, so we will have to properly confirm what this is and and how to resolve it when we will fully understand it.

[eric-riscv]

Thank you yes, let me know when the new version is available.

[AntonKrug]

The SoftConsole v2022.2 can be downloaded from here:
https://www.microchip.com/en-us/products/fpgas-and-plds/fpga-and-soc-design-tools/soc-fpga/softconsole

[eric-riscv]

Per my solution which may be out-of-date:

docker pull antmicro/renode
docker run -ti antmicro/renode bash
renode --disable-xwt --console
s @scripts/single-node/icicle-kit.resc
uart_connect sysbus.mmuart1

Please configure and push your docker container with your renode up-to-date. Doing so would be so much easier than trying to troubleshoot and solve system configuration issues.
