RISCV32 Virtual

Overview
|
|
********
|
|
|
|
The RISCV32 Virtual board is a virtual platform made with Renode as an alternative to QEMU.
|
|
Contrary to QEMU, the peripherals of this platform can be easily configured by editing the
|
|
``riscv32_virtual.repl`` script and the devicetree files accordingly, this allows certain hardware
|
|
configurations that only exist in proprietary boards/SoCs to be tested in upstream CI.
|

|
Programming and debugging
|
|
*************************
|
|
|
|
Building
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
Applications for the ``riscv32_virtual`` board configuration can be built as usual
|
|
(see :ref:`build_an_application`):
|
|
|
|
.. zephyr-app-commands::
|
|
:board: riscv32_virtual
|
|
:goals: build
|
|
|
|
Flashing
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
While this board is emulated and you can't "flash" it, you can use this
|
|
configuration to run basic Zephyr applications and kernel tests in the Renode
|
|
emulated environment. For example, with the :zephyr:code-sample:`synchronization` sample:
|
|
|
|
.. zephyr-app-commands::
|
|
:zephyr-app: samples/synchronization
|
|
:host-os: unix
|
|
:board: riscv32_virtual
|
|
:goals: run
|
|
|
|
This will build an image with the synchronization sample app, boot it using
|
|
Renode, and display the following console output:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
*** Booting Zephyr OS build zephyr-v3.5.0-1511-g56f73bde0fb0 ***
|
|
thread_a: Hello World from cpu 0 on riscv32_virtual!
|
|
thread_b: Hello World from cpu 0 on riscv32_virtual!
|
|
thread_a: Hello World from cpu 0 on riscv32_virtual!
|
|
thread_b: Hello World from cpu 0 on riscv32_virtual!
|
|
|
|
Exit Renode by pressing :kbd:`CTRL+C`.
|
|
|
|
Debugging
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
Refer to the detailed overview about :ref:`application_debugging`.
