Hello World Program Makefile throwing an error

[srinisy-22]

When I complie the "Hello World " program in the software of the process file generator, it throws me this error
/home/srinisy/ProNoC/mpsoc_work/toolchain/bin/ihex2bin -i image.ihex -o RAM/ram0.bin
Error: The Background Job (cd "/home/srinisy/ProNoC/mpsoc_work/SOC/tutorial/sw/"
make ) returned with an Error...!

make: /home/srinisy/ProNoC/mpsoc_work/toolchain/bin/ihex2bin: Command not found
make: *** [Makefile:65: image.ihex] Error 127

How do I fix this.

Hi, You need to regenerate ProNoC tools. In the ProNoC app (GUI) go to the file->setting then click on the make tools button. best regardsAlireza On Sunday, September 17, 2023 at 04:43:02 AM GMT+2, srinisy-22 ***@***.***> wrote: When I complie the "Hello World " program in the software of the process file generator, it throws me this error /home/srinisy/ProNoC/mpsoc_work/toolchain/bin/ihex2bin -i image.ihex -o RAM/ram0.bin Error: The Background Job (cd "/home/srinisy/ProNoC/mpsoc_work/SOC/tutorial/sw/" make ) returned with an Error...! make: /home/srinisy/ProNoC/mpsoc_work/toolchain/bin/ihex2bin: Command not found make: *** [Makefile:65: image.ihex] Error 127 How do I fix this. — Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or unsubscribe.

I did run the make file. But when I changed the WB address as per the manual, the compilation was successful. I had another question as to if the ProNoC tool can generate a multicore SoC (Not NoC) through the Processing tile generator? Like can I add 4 mor1kx processors? In that case how many more timers, RAMS, UARTS and GPO I need to add and What are the parameters I need to change in the wishbone bus configurations to be able to generate a HelloWorld .hex,.mif and .bin files?

Dear srinisyYes, you can make a tile with multiple CPUs.  However, you need to implement a mechanism for processors to know their ID as they share the same memory unit to read /write from. In case you are using Mor1kx, each processor has an input port that can be hard-wired to CPU Id. For other processors, you need to figure out how to do that. A simple solution is to add that port in CPU RTL wrapper file and then add a simple module that checks the address and if it matches the specific address that is reserved for reading CPU physical ID, it multiplexs that port to data in port. Then you can have the same version of a bare-metal code that checks the cpu id first and does different tasks for different ID in the same bare-metal code. another important thing you need to consider is that ProNoC has no support for cache coherent protocol, so you cannot use applications with memory sharing.  Note that I have done this project to fulfill my PhD. My contribution at that time was to introduce a state-of-the-art NoC RTL code that supports many features such as VC, shared Bram memory, low latency, and adaptive routing ... . In case you are looking for an advanced NoC in RTL code probably ProNoC will satisfy your need. However, the mpsoc generator is a fun project I started, but it's not really a research platform.you can use it to learn some basic RTL/software development skills but it is not state-of-the-art MPSOC generator.  If you are targeting an advanced MPSoC you can try OpenPiton (OP) which uses RISCV processor and its fully free.    On Monday, September 18, 2023 at 10:13:41 PM GMT+2, srinisy-22 ***@***.***> wrote: I did run the make file.
