.. _install-from-source:
Installing ARTIQ from source
============================
.. note::
This method is only recommended for developers and advanced users. An easier way to install ARTIQ is via the Anaconda packages (see :ref:`Installing ARTIQ <install-from-conda>`).
Preparing the build environment for the core device
---------------------------------------------------
These steps are required to generate code that can run on the core
device. They are necessary both for building the MiSoC BIOS
and the ARTIQ kernels.
* Install required host packages: ::
$ sudo apt-get install python3.5 pip3 build-essential cmake cargo
* Create a development directory: ::
$ mkdir ~/artiq-dev
* Clone ARTIQ repository: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/m-labs/artiq
* Install OpenRISC binutils (or1k-linux-...): ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.26.tar.bz2
$ tar xvf binutils-2.26.tar.bz2
$ cd binutils-2.26
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ../configure --target=or1k-linux --prefix=/usr/local
$ make -j4
$ sudo make install
.. note::
We're using an ``or1k-linux`` target because it is necessary to enable
shared library support in ``ld``, not because Linux is involved.
* Install LLVM and Clang: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone https://github.com/m-labs/llvm-or1k
$ git checkout artiq-3.8
$ cd llvm-or1k/tools
$ git clone https://github.com/m-labs/clang-or1k clang
$ git checkout artiq-3.8
$ cd ..
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/llvm-or1k -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="OR1K;X86" -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=ON
$ make -j4
$ sudo make install
* Install Rust: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone https://github.com/m-labs/rust
$ git checkout artiq
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ../configure --prefix=/usr/local/rust-or1k --llvm-root=/usr/local/llvm-or1k/bin/llvm-config --disable-manage-submodules
$ sudo make install -j4
$ libs="libcore liballoc librustc_unicode libcollections liblibc_mini libunwind libpanic_unwind"
$ mkdir ../build-or1k
$ cd ../build-or1k
$ for lib in ${libs}; do /usr/local/rust-or1k/bin/rustc src/${lib}/lib.rs; done
$ /usr/local/rust-or1k/bin/rustc -Cpanic=abort src/libpanic_abort/lib.rs
$ sudo cp * /usr/local/rust-or1k/lib/rustlib/or1k-unknown-none/lib/
.. note::
Compilation of LLVM can take more than 30 min on some machines. Compilation of Rust can take more than two hours.
Preparing the core device FPGA board
------------------------------------
These steps are required to generate gateware bitstream (``.bit``) files, build the MiSoC BIOS and ARTIQ runtime, and flash FPGA boards. If the board is already flashed, you may skip those steps and go directly to `Installing the host-side software`.
* Install the FPGA vendor tools (i.e. Xilinx ISE and/or Vivado):
* Get Xilinx tools from http://www.xilinx.com/support/download/index.htm. ISE can build gateware bitstreams both for boards using the Spartan-6 (Pipistrello) and 7-series devices (KC705), while Vivado supports only boards using 7-series devices.
* The Pipistrello is supported by Webpack, the KC705 is not.
* During the Xilinx toolchain installation, uncheck ``Install cable drivers`` (they are not required as we use better and open source alternatives).
* Install Migen: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone https://github.com/m-labs/migen
$ cd migen
$ python3.5 setup.py develop --user
.. note::
The options ``develop`` and ``--user`` are for setup.py to install Migen in ``~/.local/lib/python3.5``.
* Install the required flash proxy gateware bitstreams:
The purpose of the flash proxy gateware bitstream is to give programming software fast JTAG access to the flash connected to the FPGA.
* Pipistrello and KC705:
::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jordens/bscan_spi_bitstreams/master/bscan_spi_xc7k325t.bit
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jordens/bscan_spi_bitstreams/master/bscan_spi_xc6slx45.bit
Then move both files ``~/artiq-dev/bscan_spi_xc6slx45.bit`` and ``~/artiq-dev/bscan_spi_xc7k325t.bit`` to ``~/.migen``, ``/usr/local/share/migen``, or ``/usr/share/migen``.
* :ref:`Download and install OpenOCD <install-openocd>`.
* Download and install ``asyncserial``: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone https://www.github.com/m-labs/asyncserial
$ cd asyncserial
$ python3.5 setup.py develop --user
* Download and install MiSoC: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/m-labs/misoc
$ cd misoc
$ python3.5 setup.py develop --user
* Download and install ``pythonparser``: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone https://www.github.com/m-labs/pythonparser
$ cd pythonparser
$ python3.5 setup.py develop --user
* Download and install ARTIQ: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/m-labs/artiq
$ cd artiq
$ python3.5 setup.py develop --user
.. note::
If you have any trouble during ARTIQ setup about ``pygit2`` installation,
refer to the section dealing with
:ref:`installing the host-side software <installing-the-host-side-software>`.
* Build the gateware bitstream, BIOS and runtime by running:
::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ export PATH=/usr/local/llvm-or1k/bin:$PATH
.. note:: Make sure that ``/usr/local/llvm-or1k/bin`` is first in your ``PATH``, so that the ``clang`` command you just built is found instead of the system one, if any.
* For Pipistrello::
$ python3.5 -m artiq.gateware.targets.pipistrello
* For KC705::
$ python3.5 -m artiq.gateware.targets.kc705 -H nist_qc1 # or nist_qc2
.. note:: Add ``--toolchain vivado`` if you wish to use Vivado instead of ISE.
* Then, gather the binaries and flash them: ::
$ mkdir binaries
$ cp misoc_nist_qcX_<board>/gateware/top.bit binaries
$ cp misoc_nist_qcX_<board>/software/bios/bios.bin binaries
$ cp misoc_nist_qcX_<board>/software/runtime/runtime.fbi binaries
$ cd binaries
$ artiq_flash -d . -t <board>
.. note:: The `-t` option specifies the board your are targeting. Available options are ``kc705`` and ``pipistrello``.
* Check that the board boots by running a serial terminal program (you may need to press its FPGA reconfiguration button or power-cycle it to load the gateware bitstream that was newly written into the flash): ::
$ flterm /dev/ttyUSB1
MiSoC BIOS http://m-labs.hk
[...]
Booting from flash...
Loading xxxxx bytes from flash...
Executing booted program.
ARTIQ runtime built <date/time>
.. note:: flterm is part of MiSoC. If you installed MiSoC with ``setup.py develop --user``, the flterm launcher is in ``~/.local/bin``.
The communication parameters are 115200 8-N-1. Ensure that your user has access
to the serial device (``sudo adduser $USER dialout`` assuming standard setup).
.. _installing-the-host-side-software:
Installing the host-side software
---------------------------------
* Install the llvmlite Python bindings: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone https://github.com/m-labs/llvmlite
$ cd llvmlite
$ git checkout artiq-3.8
$ LLVM_CONFIG=/usr/local/llvm-or1k/bin/llvm-config python3.5 setup.py install --user
* Install ARTIQ: ::
$ cd ~/artiq-dev
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/m-labs/artiq # if not already done
$ cd artiq
$ python3.5 setup.py develop --user
.. note::
If you have any trouble during ARTIQ setup about ``pygit2`` installation,
you can install it by using ``pip``:
On Ubuntu 14.04::
$ python3.5 `which pip3` install --user pygit2==0.19.1
On Ubuntu 14.10::
$ python3.5 `which pip3` install --user pygit2==0.20.3
On Ubuntu 15.04 and 15.10::
$ python3.5 `which pip3` install --user pygit2==0.22.1
On Ubuntu 16.04::
$ python3.5 `which pip3` install --user pygit2==0.24.1
The rationale behind this is that pygit2 and libgit2 must have the same
major.minor version numbers.
See http://www.pygit2.org/install.html#version-numbers

$ cd ~/artiq-dev/artiq/doc/manual
$ make html
