Description (last modified by Joel Sherrill)

There is a new RISC-V based Beagle based on the Polarfire SOC. This project is to create a BSP for that.

The following is a list of peripherals that have been identified based on information from ​https://www.microchip.com/en-us/products/fpgas-and-plds/system-on-chip-fpgas/polarfire-soc-fpgas

This ticket is related to the BeagleBoard? 2022 GSoC effort: ​https://elinux.org/BeagleBoard/GSoC/Ideas-2022#RTEMS_on_RISC-V

As of 2022/3/1, at least these BSP components are supported:

  • CPU Cores (both E51 and U54)
  • Interrupt controller (PLIC)
  • Timer (CLINT)
  • UART (mmuart, 16550-compatible or close enough)

Unsupported:

  • Ethernet (mss-gem, not in libbsd or upstream FreeBSD, lwIP support unknown)
  • U54 MMU (bare and Sv39 modes)

There is Linux support under development for this. We need to pursue asking for dual-licensing at least the network driver as NXP did for qoriq.

All other peripherals have not been checked for existing support.
