158
|
+
-------------------
|
|
159
|
+
|
|
160
|
+
3.1. Distribution of Source Form
|
|
161
|
+
|
|
162
|
+
All distribution of Covered Software in Source Code Form, including any
|
|
163
|
+
Modifications that You create or to which You contribute, must be under
|
|
164
|
+
the terms of this License. You must inform recipients that the Source
|
|
165
|
+
Code Form of the Covered Software is governed by the terms of this
|
|
166
|
+
License, and how they can obtain a copy of this License. You may not
|
|
167
|
+
attempt to alter or restrict the recipients' rights in the Source Code
|
|
168
|
+
Form.
|
|
169
|
+
|
|
170
|
+
3.2. Distribution of Executable Form
|
|
171
|
+
|
|
172
|
+
If You distribute Covered Software in Executable Form then:
|
|
173
|
+
|
|
174
|
+
(a) such Covered Software must also be made available in Source Code
|
|
175
|
+
Form, as described in Section 3.1, and You must inform recipients of
|
|
176
|
+
the Executable Form how they can obtain a copy of such Source Code
|
|
177
|
+
Form by reasonable means in a timely manner, at a charge no more
|
|
178
|
+
than the cost of distribution to the recipient; and
|
|
179
|
+
|
|
180
|
+
(b) You may distribute such Executable Form under the terms of this
|
|
181
|
+
License, or sublicense it under different terms, provided that the
|
|
182
|
+
license for the Executable Form does not attempt to limit or alter
|
|
183
|
+
the recipients' rights in the Source Code Form under this License.
|
|
184
|
+
|
|
185
|
+
3.3. Distribution of a Larger Work
|
|
186
|
+
|
|
187
|
+
You may create and distribute a Larger Work under terms of Your choice,
|
|
188
|
+
provided that You also comply with the requirements of this License for
|
|
189
|
+
the Covered Software. If the Larger Work is a combination of Covered
|
|
190
|
+
Software with a work governed by one or more Secondary Licenses, and the
|
|
191
|
+
Covered Software is not Incompatible With Secondary Licenses, this
|
|
192
|
+
License permits You to additionally distribute such Covered Software
|
|
193
|
+
under the terms of such Secondary License(s), so that the recipient of
|
|
194
|
+
the Larger Work may, at their option, further distribute the Covered
|
|
195
|
+
Software under the terms of either this License or such Secondary
|
|
196
|
+
License(s).
|
|
197
|
+
|
|
198
|
+
3.4. Notices
|
|
199
|
+
|
|
200
|
+
You may not remove or alter the substance of any license notices
|
|
201
|
+
(including copyright notices, patent notices, disclaimers of warranty,
|
|
202
|
+
or limitations of liability) contained within the Source Code Form of
|
|
203
|
+
the Covered Software, except that You may alter any license notices to
|
|
204
|
+
the extent required to remedy known factual inaccuracies.
|
|
205
|
+
|
|
206
|
+

|
207

|
|
208

You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support,
|
|
209
|
+
indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered
|
|
210
|
+
Software. However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on
|
|
211
|
+
behalf of any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear that any
|
|
212
|
+
such warranty, support, indemnity, or liability obligation is offered by
|
|
213
|
+
You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify every Contributor for any
|
|
214
|
+
liability incurred by such Contributor as a result of warranty, support,
|
|
215
|
+
indemnity or liability terms You offer. You may include additional
|
|
216
|
+
disclaimers of warranty and limitations of liability specific to any
|
|
217
|
+
jurisdiction.
|
|
218
|
+
|
|
219
|
+
4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation
|
|
220
|
+
---------------------------------------------------
|
|
221
|
+
|
|
222
|
+
If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this
|
|
223
|
+
License with respect to some or all of the Covered Software due to
|
|
224
|
+
statute, judicial order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with
|
|
225
|
+
the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b)
|
|
226
|
+
describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description must
|
|
227
|
+
be placed in a text file included with all distributions of the Covered
|
|
228
|
+
Software under this License. Except to the extent prohibited by statute
|
|
229
|
+
or regulation, such description must be sufficiently detailed for a
|
|
230
|
+
recipient of ordinary skill to be able to understand it.
|
|
231
|
+
|
|
232
|
+
5. Termination
|
|
233
|
+
--------------
|
|
234
|
+
|
|
235
|
+
5.1. The rights granted under this License will terminate automatically
|
|
236
|
+
if You fail to comply with any of its terms. However, if You become
|
|
237
|
+
compliant, then the rights granted under this License from a particular
|
|
238
|
+
Contributor are reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until such
|
|
239
|
+
Contributor explicitly and finally terminates Your grants, and (b) on an
|
|
240
|
+
ongoing basis, if such Contributor fails to notify You of the
|
|
241
|
+
non-compliance by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after You have
|
|
242
|
+
come back into compliance. Moreover, Your grants from a particular
|
|
243
|
+
Contributor are reinstated on an ongoing basis if such Contributor
|
|
244
|
+
notifies You of the non-compliance by some reasonable means, this is the
|
|
245
|
+
first time You have received notice of non-compliance with this License
|
|
246
|
+
from such Contributor, and You become compliant prior to 30 days after
|
|
247
|
+
Your receipt of the notice.
|
|
248
|
+
|
|
249
|
+
5.2. If You initiate litigation against any entity by asserting a patent
|
|
250
|
+
infringement claim (excluding declaratory judgment actions,
|
|
251
|
+
counter-claims, and cross-claims) alleging that a Contributor Version
|
|
252
|
+
directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then the rights granted to
|
|
253
|
+
You by any and all Contributors for the Covered Software under Section
|
|
254
|
+
2.1 of this License shall terminate.
|
|
255
|
+
|
|
256
|
+
5.3. In the event of termination under Sections 5.1 or 5.2 above, all
|
|
257
|
+
end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers) which
|
|
258
|
+
have been validly granted by You or Your distributors under this License
|
|
259
|
+
prior to termination shall survive termination.

# Open Chip Operating System
|
|
2
|
+
(aka OpenChip/OpenCOS)
|
|
3
|
+
|
|
4
|
+
Main Documentation is [here](docs/README.md)
|
|
5
|
+
|
|
6
|
+
## An open framework for creating chips
|
|
7
|
+
|
|
8
|
+
Documentation right now is basically RTFC, contact netchipguy@gmail.com for info.
|
|
9
|
+
|
|
10
|
+
The philosophy behind OpenCOS is to try to emulate the path set by modern operating systems, separating the management of hardware ("kernel space" in Linux lingo) from the application ("user space" in the Linux lingo). OpenChip can be thought of as the "kernel".
|
|
11
|
+
|
|
12
|
+
The main pain points that OpenCOS aims to address are:
|
|
13
|
+
|
|
14
|
+
- the tricky work of full-chip integration (`oc_top` being the OpenCOS equivalent of an OS kernel and board support package)
|
|
15
|
+
- the lack of a standard high-quality hardware library (`oclib_*` being the OpenCOS equivalent of glibc)
|
|
16
|
+
- a pleasing development environment that isolates user from the peculiarities of the closed-source nature of most hardware development (`eda` wrapper)
|
|
17
|
+
- a methodology to support embedding timing knowledge into RTL code (OpenCOS uses "attributes" which are acted upon via EDA tool TCL, versus relying only on SDC-type "side files" that must be maintained to match the RTL, which itself maybe highly modular and parameterizable)
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
### Chip Manufacturers
|
|
20
|
+
Chip manufacturers such as FPGA vendors (Xilinx, etc) and ASIC vendors (Broadcom, etc) can port OpenCOS to one or more "targets", including whatever IPs they desire. The target (such as `u55n`) defines the clock inputs and maps target-specific pin names onto the generic OpenCOS top level (`op_top`). Each target has a set of defines (`OC_TARGET_*`) which will conditionally include various IPs in `op_top`.
|
|
21
|
+
|
|
22
|
+
### Application Developers
|
|
23
|
+
Application developers write their code to standard interfaces (AXI) at the ports of the `oc_user` module, which is instantiated by `oc_top`. The top level expects various parameters and pins to be present on `oc_user`. SystemVerilog doesn't support optional pins, so there may be many unused pins -- that is OK. One of the philosophies of OpenCOS is to keep code simple, and rely on compile time optimizations to strip out anything unnecessary. The top level will push parameters (number of AXI memory ports, etc) to the application... the application can adapt itself to the target, and/or assert that the target meets it's requirements.
|
|
24
|
+
|
|
25
|
+
### Integrators
|
|
26
|
+
Integrators (often the application developer) choose a target, and an application, and make any choices that remain (for example, the target may support four DDR4 memory interfaces, and the application may support 1..N, and the integrator may decide to create a "lightweight" version supporting only one interface, for initial debug).
|
|
27
|
+
|
|
28
|
+
## Organization
|
|
29
|
+
- **top** : Top level files (oc_top, and a generic oc_user that serves as a generic test platform for targets) as well as components that are used in the top level
|
|
30
|
+
- **user** : A collection of "user space" applications, freely distributed as part of the OpenChip framework
|
|
31
|
+
- **lib** : A library of components for use in top level and user-space applications. The desire here is to provide a library of primitives (FIFOs, memories, clock-crossing synchronizers, CSR infrastructure, etc) to provide baseline functionality reminding the author of glibc
|
|
32
|
+
- **bin** : Command line scripts, TCL for EDA tools, etc.
|
|
33
|
+
|
|
34
|
+
## License
|
|
35
|
+
OpenCOS is licensed under the Mozilla Public License, v2. The reasoning behind that is:
|
|
36
|
+
|
|
37
|
+
- A desire to ensure that code changes to the OpenCOS (aka "kernel") are returned to the community. This excludes the weakest licenses (MIT, Apache, etc)
|
|
38
|
+
- Compatibility with closed source applications, which will be tightly linked into a single "entity" (a bitfile or physical ASIC). This excludes the strongest licenses (GPL, LGPL). Note: LGPL is fairly close to what is desired, but includes a clause that requires the user be able to replace the licensed code and rebuild the target -- this is not compatible with hardware designs.
|
|
39
|
+
- The Mozilla license includes the requirement to share changes to the OpenCOS framework itself, but doesn't require that end users are able to **replace** the framework and rebuild the whole product.
