## Zip-Storm, mx

This is a development project for the BlackICE-mx boards

## Current Status

The design is up and running with only a few current items to be dealt with
still:

1. The flash is running in SPI mode and not QSPI mode.  I understand there's an
   issue with the QSPI I/O pins, and so I'm waiting on the board developer to
   address this issue before trying the QSPI flash controller again.

2. While the SDRAM is up and running and working nicely on the hardware, the
   SDRAM simulator hasn't been updated.  As a result, the simulator doesn't
   currently build.  (This part is a work-in-progress.)

3. The SD card controller has been added into the design.  Although the design
   now builds with that SD card controller within it, it hasn't yet been tested.
   (The controller has been tested and works well on other boards, but there
   may yet be pinout or I/O issues on this board.

## Build instructions

To build, you need to first install the ZipCPU toolchain.  The design also
uses AutoFPGA, but you should be able to use it without AutoFPGA

To build:

1. If you are building with AutoFPGA, the first step is to run "make autodata"
   from the main directory.

2. Type "make" in the main directory.  This *should* build everything.  If not,
   you can run "make" in waves

-- You can either run "make" from with "rt/", or run "make rtl" to lint and
      Verilate the source code, as well as to build a binary file that can be
      loaded on the device.

-- Make in the "sim" directory, or "make sim", should build a simulation
      program called "main_tb".

*Should* is the keyword here.  The simulation has been broken since
    adjusting for the SDRAM currently available on the part, and so it still
    needs some more work.

The rest of the design should work however.

-- Make "sw-host" or in "sw/host" will build a series of programs that can be used to interactt with the design

-- Make "sw-zlib" or in sw/zlib will build the addendum to the C-library
      necessary for this board

-- Make "sw-board", or make in sw/board, will build one of two ZipCPU test
      programs: cputest (and cputestcis), as well as the more traditional hello
      world test.  Hello World requires the C-library, whereas the cputest
      can be run stand-alone.

## Running the Simulation

To run the simulation (once fixed), cd into the "sim" directory and run
`main_tb`.  The simulation can be ended at any time by typing control C.

To run a ZipCPU program in simulation type `main_tb <path/to/zipcpu_executable>`.  The
design comes with three programs, `cputest`, `hello`, and `memtest`, that will
build in `sw/board`.  Once built, they can be referenced from the command line
of `main_tb` to run them in simulation.  (The multiply test portion of the
CPU test takes a while to complete.)  Both programs, upon completion, will
end the simulation.

To capture a complete trace of the simulation, use the `-d` flag.  The trace
will be placed into the current directory, and called `trace.vcd`.

You can also interact with the simulation using the software in the `sw/host`
directory as though interacting with the actual hardware.  For example,
`wbregs version` will read the version word from the design.  This word contains
the Year-Month-Day the last time make build the date stamp using `mkdatev.pl`.
You can also use `wbregs buildtime` to find the time associated with the
date stamp as well.

`wbregs spio 0x0c0c` Should turn on the top two LEDs, `wbregs spio 0x0c00` will
turn them off.  `wbregs spio 0x0404` will turn one of them on, and
`wbregs spio 0x808` will turn the other on.  `wbregs spio` will return the value
from the `SPIO` driver (special purpose I/O: buttons, switches, and LEDs).
The low order 8-bits will contain the state of the LEDs.

`wbregs pwrcount` will return an up-counter started at load time.  The top bit,
however, saturates: once set it doesn't clear, so you can at least tell  you've
been around once.

`wbregs bustimer` provides access to set/clear a ZipTimer found on the bus.

`wbregs ram` will read from the first address of block RAM, and
`wbregs ram value` will write `value` to the first address of block RAM.
Using an address, such as `wbregs 0x<addr>` will allow you to access other
values within block RAM.

`wbregs sdram` will read from the first address of the SDRAM RAM, and
`wbregs sdram <value>` will write `<value>` to that same first SDRAM address.

You can also read from the flash using `wbregs flash`.

The named address in these examples can also be given numerically, using any
format that `strtoul` will accept.  This should allow you read and write any
of the special addresses above, any address in block RAM or SDRAM.  It should
also allow you read any address from the flash.  Programming the flash is more
involved.  Programs wishing to program the flash are encouraged to use the
[flashdrvr](/sw/host/flashdrvr.h) capability.

## In Hardware

All of the above `wbregs` tests should work in hardware as well.

The design will depend upon interacting with a debugging channel.  It currently
uses the serial port on an external PMod for that purpose.  To run, run the
program `netuart` from the `sw/host` directory.  You may need to provide the
name of the USB/UART device, as in `netuart /dev/ttyUSB3`.  Once `netuart` is
running, `wbregs` and indeed all of the software in [sw/host](sw/host) should
be able to speak to the device--assuming that the serial port is working.

If you aren't certain whether or not the serial port is working, then you can
connect to the device via minicom.  If it is working, you should receive a
`Z` followed by a newline every 22 seconds or so.  If you do not get a `Z`
return, check the serial port parameters.  The `BAUDRATE` should be defined in
in [regdefs.h](sw/host/regdefs.h).  After that, the protocol is 8-data bits, 1
stop bit, and no parity--sometimes called `8N1`.

To run a ZipCPU program, use `zipload`.  `zipload program` will load `program`
into memory, but not start it.  `zipload -r program` will start the program
once loaded.
