Xiretzagood evening, I haven't been able to find much up-to-date information on this, so I thought I'd ask here: broadly approximated, how far along is Project Xray? Is something like nextpnr integration for (partial) bitstream generation anywhere close or does it need a lot more work for that to happen?20:15
litghostXiretza: We can place and route on Artix 50T class parts20:16
litghoste.g. basys3, arty, etc20:16
litghostWe support LUTs/FFs/LUT-RAMs/BRAMs/single ended ios20:16
litghostPLL support is kind of working20:16
litghostIOSERDES is actually being worked on20:16
litghostdifferential IO is being worked on20:17
litghostDSP support is early, we are missing many bits and lack P&R support20:17
litghostP&R support is mostly being done via VPR in https://github.com/SymbiFlow/symbiflow-arch-defs20:18
tpbTitle: GitHub - SymbiFlow/symbiflow-arch-defs: FOSS architecture definitions of FPGA hardware useful for doing PnR device generation. (at github.com)20:18
litghostThere is also preliminary nextpnr fork using prjxray20:18
litghostLarger class parts may work with symbiflow-arch-defs, but will likely consume an excessive amoung of RAM20:20
Xiretzalitghost: oh, nice! I had no idea it was that far already. I'd love to help (at least with fuzzing, anything else is a bit over my head), maybe I'll set up vivado 2017 on a build server some day ;)20:20
litghostSo we've started to get momentum on DSP bit definitions20:21
litghostThe next thing for DSP work is likely a minitest and determining how many unknown bits are left20:21
litghostHere is an example minitest for OSERDES: https://github.com/SymbiFlow/prjxray/tree/master/minitests/oserdes20:22
tpbTitle: prjxray/minitests/oserdes at master · SymbiFlow/prjxray · GitHub (at github.com)20:22
litghostWe need something like that for DSP, which doubles as having two purposes20:22
litghostIt provides examples to test once we are ready to integrated into https://github.com/SymbiFlow/symbiflow-arch-defs20:23
tpbTitle: GitHub - SymbiFlow/symbiflow-arch-defs: FOSS architecture definitions of FPGA hardware useful for doing PnR device generation. (at github.com)20:23
litghostIt also shows how many unknown bits we have for using the DSP20:23
*** Bertl is now known as Bertl_oO20:25
XiretzaI read through the RTD docs, but there's still quite a leap from that to all the stuff that happens in the prjxray repo, most of which I can't make any sense of ;)20:26
Xiretzaadd to that that I don't really know any verilog, and it becomes somewhat impossible to do much more than follow the quickstart guide. If I find the time and disk space I'll run some fuzzers though - are those designed as distributed computing so that anyone can run them to help the project, or more as tools for people who already know what they're doing?20:34

litghostThere is a CI for the fuzzers, so the full run doesn't need to be run be folks.  Individual runs can be done on a single system without too many resources besides disk21:16

Xiretzalitghost: oh, so am I understanding correctly that running the fuzzers myself doesn't actually produce any more information, and what actually needs to be done is writing more fuzzers/expanding existing ones (which requires understanding the system instead of just some computing power)?22:17
litghostXiretza: Yep, that's it22:17
litghostHere is an example: https://github.com/SymbiFlow/prjxray/pull/108022:18
tpbTitle: DSP - Add Attribute Fuzzing by JakeMercer · Pull Request #1080 · SymbiFlow/prjxray · GitHub (at github.com)22:18
Xiretzalitghost: ah, that's unfortunate. I thought I might be able to help by just donating some resources, but this is way over my head and I'm afraid I don't have the time to try to read into it at the moment.22:23
