Imagination University Program MIPSfpga
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
Under the Imagination University Program, a microAptiv UP core has been
|
|
released for academic usage.
|
|
|
|
As we are dealing with a MIPS core instantiated on an FPGA, specifications
|
|
are fluid and can be varied in RTL.
|
|
|
|
This binding document is provided as baseline guidance for the example
|
|
project provided by IMG.
|
|
|
|
The example project runs on the Nexys4DDR board by Digilent powered by
|
|
the ARTIX-7 FPGA by Xilinx.
|
|
|
|
Relevant details about the example project and the Nexys4DDR board:
|
|
|
|
- microAptiv UP core m14Kc
|
|
- 50MHz clock speed
|
|
- 128Mbyte DDR RAM at 0x0000_0000
|
|
- 8Kbyte RAM at 0x1000_0000
|
|
- axi_intc at 0x1020_0000
|
|
- axi_uart16550 at 0x1040_0000
|
|
- axi_gpio at 0x1060_0000
|
|
- axi_i2c at 0x10A0_0000
|
|
- custom_gpio at 0x10C0_0000
|
|
- axi_ethernetlite at 0x10E0_0000
|
|
- 8Kbyte BootRAM at 0x1FC0_0000
|
|
|
|
Required properties:
|
|
--------------------
|
|
- compatible: Must include "digilent,nexys4ddr","img,xilfpga".
|
|
|
|
CPU nodes:
|
|
----------
|
|
A "cpus" node is required. Required properties:
|
|
- #address-cells: Must be 1.
|
|
- #size-cells: Must be 0.
|
|
A CPU sub-node is also required for at least CPU 0. Required properties:
|
|
- device_type: Must be "cpu".
|
|
- compatible: Must be "mips,m14Kc".
|
|
- reg: Must be <0>.
|
|
- clocks: phandle to ext clock for fixed-clock received by MIPS core.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
compatible = "img,xilfpga","digilent,nexys4ddr";
|
|
cpus {
|
|
#address-cells = <1>;
|
|
#size-cells = <0>;
|
|
|
|
cpu0: cpu@0 {
|
|
device_type = "cpu";
|
|
compatible = "mips,m14Kc";
|
|
reg = <0>;
|
|
clocks = <&ext>;
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
ext: ext {
|
|
compatible = "fixed-clock";
|
|
#clock-cells = <0>;
|
|
clock-frequency = <50000000>;
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
Boot protocol:
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
The BootRAM is a writeable "RAM" in FPGA at 0x1FC0_0000.
|
|
This is for easy reprogrammibility via JTAG.
|
|
|
|
The BootRAM initializes the cache and the axi_uart peripheral.
|
|
|
|
DDR initialization is already handled by a HW IP block.
|
|
|
|
When the example project bitstream is loaded, the cpu_reset button
|
|
needs to be pressed.
|
|
|
|
The bootram initializes the cache and axi_uart.
|
|
Then outputs MIPSFPGA\n\r on the serial port on the Nexys4DDR board.
|
|
|
|
At this point, the board is ready to load the Linux kernel
|
|
vmlinux file via JTAG.
