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
