# Changelog This changelog follows the format defined here: https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/ ## [1.3.0] - 2020-05-31 A more detailed account of everything included is included in the dev to master PR for this release: https://github.com/ucb-bar/chipyard/pull/500 ### Added * A new Top-level module, ChipTop, has been created. ChipTop instantiates a "system" module specified by BuildSystem. (#480) * A new BuildSystem key has been added, which by default builds DigitalTop (#480) * The IOBinders API has changed. IOBinders are now called inside of ChipTop and return a tuple3 of (IO ports, IO cells, harness functions). The harness functions are now called inside the TestHarness (this is analogous to the previous IOBinder functions). (#480) * IO cell models have been included in ChipTop. These can be replaced with real IO cells for tapeout, or used as-is for simulation. (#480) * CI now checks documentation changes (#485) * Support FireSim multi-clock (#468) * Allows make variables to be injected into build system (#499) * Various documentation/comment updates (#511,#517,#518,#537,#533,#542,#570,#569) * DSPTools documentation and example (#457, #568) * Support for no UART configs (#536) * Assemble firrtl-test.jar (#551) * Add SPI flash configurations (#546) * Add Dromajo + FireSim Dromajo simulation support (#523, #553, #560) * NVDLA integration (#505, #559, #580) * Add support for Hammer Sim (#512,#581,#580,#582) ### Changed * Bump FireSim to version 1.10 (#574) * Bump BOOM to version 3.0 (#523, #574,#580) * Bump Gemmini to version 0.3 (#575, #579) * Bump SPEC17 workload (#504, #574) * Bump Hwacha for fixes (#580) * Bump SHA3 for Linux 5.7rc3 support (#580) * Bump Rocket Chip to commit 1872f5d (including stage/phase compilation) (#503,#544) * Bump FireMarshal to version 1.9.0 (#574) * Chisel 3.3 and FIRRTL 1.3 (#503,#544) * BuildTop now builds a ChipTop dut module in the TestHarness by default (#480) * The default for the TOP make variable is now ChipTop (was Top) (#480) * Top has been renamed to DigitalTop (#480) * Bump libgloss (#508, #516, #580) * The default version of Verilator has changed to v4.034 (#547). Since this release adds enhanced support for Verilog timescales, the build detects if Verilator v4.034 or newer is visible in the build environment and sets default timescale flags appropriately. * Use Scalatests for FireSim CI (#528) * Cleanup Ariane pre-processing (#505) * Modify Issue Template to be more explicit (#557) * FireChip uses Chipyard generator (#554) * Have all non-synthesizeable constructs in test harness (#572) ### Fixed * Aligned esp-tools spike with Gemmini (#509) * Fix debug rule in Verilator (#513) * Clean up SBT HTTP warnings (#526,#549) * Artefacts dropped in FireSim (#534) * Working IceNet + TestChipIP Unit Tests (#525) * Don't initialize non-existent Midas submodule (#552) * Verilator now supports +permissive similar to VCS (#565) ### Deprecated * N/A ### Removed * N/A ## [1.2.0] - 2020-03-14 A more detailed account of everything included is included in the dev to master PR for this release: https://github.com/ucb-bar/chipyard/pull/418 ### Added * Ring Topology System Bus NoC (#461) * Integration of the Ariane core into Chipyard (#448) * FireMarshal now generates an extra copy of linux kernel with dwarf debugging info for use in FirePerf (#427) * Add option to use blackboxed SimDRAM instead of SimAXIMem (#449) * Log `init-submodules` script (#433) * Moved the Docker image used for CI into Chipyard (prev. in BOOM) (#463) ### Changed * Bump FireSim to 1.9.0 - Includes FirePerf TracerV Flame Graph features * IOBinders and BuildTop unification between FireChip and Chipyard (#390) * Bump BOOM to version 2.2.4 (#463) * Bump Gemmini to version 0.2 (#469) * Update to CircleCI 2.1 config. syntax and cleanup CI file (#421) * FireMarshal moved from FireSim to Chipyard (#415) * Rename config. mixins to config fragments (#451) ### Fixed * `git status` should be clean. (Although you will need to manually cleanup the libgloss and qemu directories after first setup). (#411, #414) * Fix Hetero. BOOM + Rocket + Hwacha config (#413) * Fix VCS stdout (#417) * Add a git version check to the init scripts and make them work outside of the repo root (#459) * Fix generation of env.sh for zsh (#435) * GCD example bug (#465) ### Deprecated * N/A ### Removed * N/A ## [1.1.0] - 2020-01-25 A more detailed account of everything included is included in the dev to master PR for this release: https://github.com/ucb-bar/chipyard/pull/367 ### Added * Gemmini generator and config (PR #356 ) * Coremark + SPEC2017 benchmarks (PR #326, #338, #344) * Add Hwacha tests to CI (PR #284) * Add Hwacha tests to benchmark and assembly test suites (PR #284) * Added Hwacha + Large Boom Config (PR #315) * Add multi-core config with a small Rocket core attached on the side (PR #361 ) * Add UART and Test Harness UART Adapter to all configurations (PR #348) * User can specify $RISCV directory in build-toolchains.sh (PR #334) * Checksum offload in IceNet (PR #364) ### Changed * Rocketchip bumped to commit [4f0cdea](https://github.com/chipsalliance/rocket-chip/tree/4f0cdea85c8a2b849fd582ccc8497892001d06b0), for chisel version 3.2.0 which includes Async reset support * FireSim release 1.8.0 * FireMarshal release 1.8.0 * BOOM release 2.2.3 (PR #397) * baremetal software toolchains, using libgloss and newlib instead of in-house syscalls. * Add toolchain specific `env.sh` (PR #304) * `run-binary`-like interface now dumps `.log` (stdout) and `.out` (stderr) files (PR #308) * Split the VLSI build dir on type of design (PR #331) * Reduce Ctags runtime and only look at scala, C, C++, and Python files (PR #346) * Top/Top-level-traits now behave as a configurable generator (PR #347) * Test suite makefrag generator includes Hwacha test suites (PR #342) ### Fixed * Fix VLSI makefile requirements for SRAM generation (PR #318) * Only filter header files from common simulation files (PR #322) * Bump MacroCompiler for bugfixes (PR #332) * commit-on-master check has specific behavior based on source branch (PR #345) * Makefile filtering of blackbox resource files only omits .h files (PR #322) * Parallel make fixed (PR #386 #392) ### Deprecated * No longer need to specify `WithXTop`, default `Top` is a generator for all `Top`s (PR #347) ### Removed * N/A ## [1.0.0] - 2019-10-19 ### Added * This repository used to be "project-template", a template for Chisel-based projects. Through tighter integration of multiple projects from the Berkeley Architecture Research group at UC Berkeley, this repository is re-released as Chipyard - a framework for agile hardware development of RISC-V based Systems-on-Chip.
