scanakciI have a question related to running Litex BIOS on FPGA. I generated the bitstream for genesys and programmed the FPGA using JTAG.  Now, I would like to see Litex BIOS console after reset. For loading linux images through serial, I see that vexriscv-litex repo uses litex_term. Is this the correct tool to run BIOS only?20:58
scanakciI believe that this one (in Litex README) could a bit more detailed to help beginners like me :) :20:59
scanakci "6.  Run a terminal program on the board's serial port at 115200 8-N-1. You should get the BIOS prompt."20:59
scanakciI am trying to see the BIOS console for Rocket as first using this command: ./litex_term.py /dev/ttyUSB021:02
scanakciAfter pressing reset, it prints sth that I include in plic_init function but not going further.21:02
CarlFKUSB0 .. I don't think that is right21:06
scanakciwhy do you think so? I checked the dmesg output and looks like ttyUSB0.21:13
scanakciactually now I see that dmesg prints something different than yesterday. thanks @CarlFK for pointing this.21:18
scanakciIt is good, I unplugged and plugged back and verified based on dmesg21:26
CarlFKI would expect /dev/ttyACM0 - but that's based on a few other similar things, like fomu21:26
daveshahFTDI stuff like the Genesys is USB not ACM21:27
daveshahIt's been a while since I used the Genesys but it may well not be ttyUSB021:27
scanakciyeah, I was working with zedboard which was using ttyACM21:27
daveshahare there any other ttyUSBs?21:27
scanakcinope, only one21:27
scanakcittyUSB0 appears after I connect genesys to my desktop and dmesg tells me that "[3521277.129916] usb 1-10: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0"21:29
daveshahYeah, definitely the right device then21:31
daveshahSounds like all the PC side stuff is fine and it is a BIOS or gateware issue21:31
scanakciI see. as a side note, I used "./genesys2.py --cpu-type rocket --cpu-variant standard" to generate the bitstream. @somlo, do I need to add anything to this command line? I only want to see terminal and want to type help. ethernet, LITEDram support are not necessary.21:35
daveshahThat sounds fine21:35
scanakcithank you @daveshah.21:36
somloscanakci: if it works for you that way, you're OK. I for one have to add "--gatware-toolchain-path ...path-to-vivado..." to the command line (I'm assuming you're currently using a xilinx fpga)21:42
somlobut that's only because my Vivado install is in a place other than what LiteX assumes by default :)21:43
scanakciokay, that part is good. vivado looks fine :)21:43
