keesjWhe I read risc-v in combo with fpga I always wonder if the risc-v is hard ip or not06:44
keesjso.. here " complete hardened quad core 64-bit RISC-V processor " is probably still a soft core?06:45
daveshahThis time its pretty clearly hard IP06:52
daveshahIf nothing else a quad core RV64GC is unlikely to fit in a 25k FPGA06:53
keesjI see and the document abobe is more clear on that topic https://www.cnx-software.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/PolarFire-SoC-FPGA-Block-Diagram.png there is even a 5th core RISC-V Monitor core07:03

mithrodaveshah / keesj: I'm pretty sure it is a SiFive based core complex in the PolarFire board14:46
mithroGiven Microsemi's history with pricing -- I can't see it being cheap14:46
daveshahThe board might be cheap-ish but the chips definitely won't be14:48
daveshahMicrosemi is pretty close to "if you have to ask you can't afford it" pricing strategy14:49
daveshahand their usual customer base don't need to ask...14:49
sorearit's very definitely sifive-based, they've said as much14:55
somlo_florent_: with litesdcard a9f61ef and litex e8f84c96 I can't boot in sd-mode (ignore if it's still a work in progress :)15:02

mithroThis is cool -> https://twitter.com/Obijuan_cube/status/127622928314555187619:18
_florent_somlo: it's indeed still a work in progress, i'll continue tomorrow, but upstream litex/litesdcard should be working20:07
somlo_florent_: with 4094a6ec (litex) and 7e23147 (litesdcard), using rocket and nexys4ddr, it hangs at "booting from sdcard in sd-mode" (or somesuch, I don't have it in front of me right now)20:20
somlorebuilt it in spi-mode, which is why I can't give you the exact quote :) But it hangs there, won't fall through to netbooting, or to the LiteX bios prompt20:21
