+Contents of the SDK
+===================
+
+Supported Targets
+-----------------
+
+Freedom E SDK comes packaged with the following board support packages under the
+``bsp/`` directory.
+
+- `SiFive HiFive 1 <https://www.sifive.com/boards/hifive1>`_
+
+ - sifive-hifive1
+
+- `SiFive Freedom E310 Arty <https://github.com/sifive/freedom>`_
+
+ - freedom-e310-arty
+
+- SiFive CoreIP
+
+ - coreip-e31
+ - coreip-s51
+
+- SiFive CoreIP Arty FPGA Evaluation targets
+
+ - coreip-e31-arty
+ - coreip-s51-arty
+
+The board support files for the Freedom Metal library are located entirely
+within a single target directory in ``bsp/<target>/``. For example, the HiFive 1
+board support files for Freedom Metal are entirely within ``bsp/sifive-hifive1/``
+and consist of the following:
+
+* ``design.dts``
+
+ - The DeviceTree description of the target. This file is used to parameterize
+ the Freedom Metal library to the target device. It is included as reference
+ so that users of Freedom Metal are aware of what features and peripherals
+ are available on the target.
+
+* ``mee.h``
+
+ - The Freedom Metal machine header which is used internally to Freedom Metal
+ to instantiate structures to support the target device.
+
+* ``mee.lds``
+
+ - The linker script for the target device.
+
+* ``openocd.cfg`` (for development board and FPGA targets)
+
+ - Used to configure OpenOCD for flashing and debugging the target device.
+
+* ``settings.mk``
+
+ - Used to set ``-march`` and ``-mabi`` arguments to the RISC-V GNU Toolchain.
+
+Freedom Metal
+-------------
+
+`Freedom Metal <https://github.com/sifive/freedom-metal>`_
+(`Documentation <https://sifive.github.io/freedom-metal-docs/index.html>`_)
+is a library developed by SiFive for writing portable software for all of SiFive's
+RISC-V IP, RISC-V FPGA evaluation images, and development boards. Programs written
+against the Freedom Metal API are intended to build and run for all SiFive RISC-V
+targets. This makes Freedom Metal suitable for writing portable tests, bare metal
+application programming, and as a hardware abstraction layer for porting
+operating systems to RISC-V.
+
+Freedom E SDK is a consumer of the Freedom Metal library. Freedom Metal allows the
+SDK examples to be portable to all supported SiFive targets.
+
+Example Programs
+----------------
+
+The example programs can be found under the ``software/`` directory.
+
+- hello
+
+ - Prints "Hello, World!" to stdout, if a serial device is present on the target.
+
+- return-pass
+
+ - Returns status code 0 indicating program success.
+
+- return-fail
+
+ - Returns status code 1 indicating program failure.
+
+- example-itim
+
+ - Demonstrates how to statically link application code into the Instruction
+ Tightly Integrated Memory (ITIM) if an ITIM is present on the target.
+
+- software-interrupt
+
+ - Demonstrates how to register a handler for and trigger a software interrupt
+
+- timer-interrupt
+
+ - Demonstrates how to register a handler for and trigger a timer interrupt
+
+- local-interrupt
+
+ - Demonstrates how to register a handler for and trigger a local interrupt
+
+- example-pmp
+
+ - Demonstrates how to configure a Physical Memory Protection (PMP) region
+

+What is Freedom E SDK?
+----------------------
+
+Freedom E SDK is a project maintained by Sifive Inc. which makes it easy to

+Benchmarking
+============
+
+The Dhrystone and CoreMark benchmarks are still only supported by the Legacy
+Freedom E SDK. When we port the benchmarks to Freedom Metal, we will update
+this section to describe the updated build steps.
+
+Dhrystone
+---------
+
+After setting up the software and debug toolchains, you can build and
+execute everyone's favorite benchmark as follows:
+
+- Compile the benchmark with the command ``make software TARGET=freedom-e300-hifive1 PROGRAM=dhrystone LINK_TARGET=dhrystone``. Note that a slightly different linker file is used for Dhrystone which stores read only data in DTIM instead of external flash.
+- Run on the HiFive1 board with the command ``make upload TARGET=freedom-e300-hifive1 PROGRAM=dhrystone``.
+ This will take a few minutes. Sample output is provided below.
+- Compute DMIPS by dividing the Dhrystones per Second result by 1757, which
+ was the VAX 11/780's performance. In the example below, 729927 / 1757 =
+ 415 DMIPS.
+- Compute DMIPS/MHz by dividing by the clock rate: in the example below,
+ 415 / 268 = 1.55 DMIPS/MHz.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ core freq at 268694323 Hz
+
+ Dhrystone Benchmark, Version 2.1 (Language: C)
+
+ <snip>
+
+ Microseconds for one run through Dhrystone: 1.3
+ Dhrystones per Second: 729927.0
+
+CoreMark
+--------
+
+We cannot distribute the CoreMark benchmark, but following are instructions
+to download and run the benchmark on the HiFive1 board:
+
+- Download CoreMark from EEMBC's web site and extract the archive from
+ `<http://www.eembc.org/coremark/download.php>`_.
+- Copy the following files from the extracted archive into the
+ ``software/coremark`` directory in this repository:
+
+ - ``core_list_join.c``
+ - ``core_main.c``
+ - ``coremark.h``
+ - ``core_matrix.c``
+ - ``core_state.c``
+ - ``core_util.c``
+
+- Compile the benchmark with the command ``make software PROGRAM=coremark``.
+- Run on the HiFive1 board with the command ``make upload PROGRAM=coremark``.
+- Divide the reported Iterations/Sec by the reported core frequency in MHz to
+ obtain a CoreMarks/MHz value.

+If, for example, you wished to build the ``timer-interrupt`` example for the S51
+Core IP target, you would instead run the command

+Installing Freedom E SDK
+========================
+
+Supported Systems
+-----------------
+
+Freedom E SDK is supported on Linux, MacOS, and Windows.
+
+Linux support is officially provided to distributions we distribute
+builds of the RISC-V toolchain for. Currently, these distributions are
+
+- Ubuntu
+- CentOS
+
+We expect other Linux distributions to work as well, provided that the
+user can either run our provided toolchains on them or produce their own
+toolchain.
+
+Windows support is not directly provided by Freedom E SDK, but through
+our Integrated Development Environment, Freedom Studio.
+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+
+To use this SDK, you will need the following software available on your machine:
+
+- GNU Make
+- Git
+- The RISC-V GNU Embedded Toolchain
+- RISC-V OpenOCD (for use with development board and FPGA targets)
+
+Install the RISC-V Toolchain and OpenOCD
+----------------------------------------
+
+The RISC-V GNU Toolchain and OpenOCD are available from `the SiFive Website <https://www.sifive.com/boards>`_.
+
+For OpenOCD and/or RISC-V GNU Toolchain, download the .tar.gz for your platform,
+and unpack it to your desired location. Then, set the ``RISCV_PATH`` and
+``RISCV_OPENOCD_PATH`` environment variables when using the tools:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ cp openocd-<date>-<platform>.tar.gz /my/desired/location/
+ cp riscv64-unknown-elf-gcc-<date>-<platform>.tar.gz /my/desired/location
+ cd /my/desired/location
+ tar -xvf openocd-<date>-<platform>.tar.gz
+ tar -xvf riscv64-unknown-elf-gcc-<date>-<platform>.tar.gz
+ export RISCV_OPENOCD_PATH=/my/desired/location/openocd
+ export RISCV_PATH=/my/desired/location/riscv64-unknown-elf-gcc-<date>-<version>
+
+Cloning the Repository
+----------------------
+
+This repository can be cloned by running the following commands:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ git clone --recursive https://github.com/sifive/freedom-e-sdk.git
+ cd freedom-e-sdk
+
+The ``--recursive`` option is required to clone the git submodules included in the
+repository. If at first you omit the ``--recursive`` option, you can achieve
+the same effect by updating submodules using the command:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ git submodule update --init --recursive
+
+Updating the SDK
+----------------
+
+If you'd like to update your SDK to the latest version:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ git pull origin master
+ git submodule update --init --recursive

+Creating a Standalone Project
+=============================
+
+You can export a program to a standalone project directory using the ``standalone``
+target. The resulting project will be locked to a specific ``TARGET``. Note
+that this functionality is only supported for Freedom Metal programs, not the
+Legacy Freedom E SDK.
+
+``STANDALONE_DEST`` is a required argument to provide the desired project location.
