Submodules

tsfpga.examples.build module

tsfpga.examples.build.arguments(default_temp_dir=PosixPath('/builds/tsfpga/tsfpga/generated'))

Setup of arguments for the example build flow.

Parameters

default_temp_dir (pathlib.Path) – Default value for output paths.

tsfpga.examples.build.collect_artifacts(project, output_path)

Example of a method to collect build artifacts. Will create a zip file with the bitstream, hardware definition (.xsa) and register documentation.

Parameters

  • project (VivadoProject) – Project object that has been built, and who’s artifacts shall now be collected.

  • output_path (pathlib.Path) – Path to the build output. Artifact zip will be placed here as well.

tsfpga.examples.build.generate_registers(modules, output_path)

Generate all register artifacts from the given modules.

Parameters

  • modules (ModuleList) – Registers from these modules will be included.

  • output_path (pathlib.Path) – Register artifacts will be placed here.

tsfpga.examples.build.main()

Main function for building FPGA projects. If you are setting up a new build flow from scratch, you probably want to copy and modify this function, and reuse the others.

tsfpga.examples.build.setup_and_run(modules, projects, args)

Setup build projects, and execute as instructed by the arguments.

Parameters

  • modules (ModuleList) – When running a register generation, registers from these modules will be included.

  • projects (BuildProjectList) – These build projects will be built.

  • args – Command line argument namespace.

Returns

0 if everything passed, otherwise non-zero. Can be used for system exit code.

Return type

int

tsfpga.examples.example_env module

Common functions and definitions in the example build environment.

tsfpga.examples.example_env.get_default_registers()

Default registers for tsfpga examples.

tsfpga.examples.example_env.get_tsfpga_example_modules(names_include=None, names_avoid=None)

Wrapper of the regular get_modules(). call with correct settings for tsfpga example modules. This will include the example tsfpga modules, but not the “real” modules.

Arguments will be passed on to get_modules().

tsfpga.examples.simulate module

tsfpga.examples.simulate.find_git_test_filters(args, repo_root, modules, modules_no_sim=None, **setup_vunit_kwargs)

Construct a VUnit test filter that will run all test cases that are affected by git changes. The current git state is compared to origin/master, and differences are derived. See GitSimulationSubset for details.

Parameters
Returns

A list of VUnit test case filters.

Return type

list(str)

tsfpga.examples.simulate.main()

Main function for the simulation flow. If you are setting up a new simulation environment you probably want to copy and modify this function. The other functions and classes should be reusable in most cases.

tsfpga.examples.simulation_utils module

class tsfpga.examples.simulation_utils.SimulationProject(args, preprocessing_disable=False)

Bases: object

Class for setting up and handling a VUnit simulation project. Should be reusable in most cases.

__init__(args, preprocessing_disable=False)

Create a VUnit project, configured according to the given arguments.

Parameters

preprocessing_disable (bool) – If True, VUnit location/check preprocessing will not be enabled.

Return: The created VUnit project.

add_modules(args, modules, modules_no_sim=None, **setup_vunit_kwargs)

Add module source files to the VUnit project.

Parameters

  • args – Command line argument namespace.

  • modules (ModuleList) – These modules will be included in the simulation project.

  • modules_no_sim (ModuleList) – These modules will be included in the simulation project, but their test files will not be added.

  • setup_vunit_kwargs – Further arguments that will be sent to BaseModule.setup_vunit() for each module. Note that this is a “kwargs” style argument; any number of named arguments can be sent.

add_vivado_simlib_and_ip_cores(args, modules, vivado_part_name='xc7z020clg400-1', vivado_ip_core_project_class=None)

Add Vivado simlib and module IP cores to the VUnit project. Will compile and add simlib unless instructed not to by args. When running with a commercial simulator, IP cores will be generated and added, unless instructed not to by args.

Parameters

  • args – Command line argument namespace.

  • modules (ModuleList) – IP cores from these modules will be included in the simulation project.

  • vivado_part_name (str) – Part name to be used for Vivado IP core project. Might have to change from default depending on what parts you have available in your Vivado installation.

  • vivado_ip_core_project_class – Class to be used for Vivado IP core project. Can be left at default in most cases.

Returns

Path to the Vivado IP core project’s project directory.

Return type

pathlib.Path

tsfpga.examples.simulation_utils.create_vhdl_ls_configuration(output_path, temp_files_path, modules, ip_core_vivado_project_directory)

Create config for vhdl_ls (https://github.com/VHDL-LS/rust_hdl). Granted this might no be the “correct” place for this functionality. But since the call is somewhat quick (~10 ms), and simulate.py is run “often” it seems an appropriate place in order to always have an up-to-date vhdl_ls config.

Parameters

  • output_path (pathlib.Path) – Config file will be placed here.

  • temp_files_path (pathlib.Path) – Some temporary files will be placed here.

  • modules (ModuleList) – These modules will be added.

  • ip_core_vivado_project_directory (pathlib.Path) – Vivado IP core files in this location will be added.

tsfpga.examples.simulation_utils.get_arguments_cli(default_output_path)

Get arguments for the simulation flow.

Parameters

default_output_path (pathlib.Path) – Will be set as default for output path arguments (both VUnit files and Vivado files).
