Prerequisites

Docker (ensure docker daemon is running) -- tested with version 19.03.12, but any recent version should suffice.

Step-1: Docker in ubuntu 20.04 version

   sudo apt update
   sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https curl rtificates -agent software-properties-common
   curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
   sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu focal stable"
   sudo apt update
   apt-cache policy docker-ce
   sudo apt install docker-ce

   #Add User Name to docker
   sudo usermod -aG docker <your user name>
   # Reboot the system to enable the docker setup

Step-2: Clone , update the Submodule, unzip the content

   git clone https://github.com/dineshannayya/riscduino.git
   cd riscduino
   git submodule init
   git submodule update
   make unzip

Note-1: RTL to GDS Docker

- Required openlane and pdk are moved inside the riscduino docker to avoid the external dependency. 
- flow automatically pull the required docker based on MPW version.
- RTL to gds docker is hardcoded inside File: openlane/Makefile

     OPENLANE_TAG = mpw9
     OPENLANE_IMAGE_NAME = riscduino/openlane:$(OPENLANE_TAG)

Note-1.1: View the RTL to GDS Docker content

- for MPW-9 caravel pdk and openlane avaible inside riscduino/openlane:mpw9 docker 
- caravel, openlane and pdk envionment are automatically pointed to internal docker pointer
- To view the docker contents

    docker run -ti --rm riscduino/openlane:mpw9  bash
    cd /opt/pdk_mpw9     -  pdk folder
    cd /opt/caravel      -  caravel folder 
    cd /openlane         -  openlane folder
    env   - Show the internally defined env's
        CARAVEL_ROOT=/opt/caravel
        PDK_ROOT=/opt/pdk_mpw9

Note-2: RTL Simulation Docker

- Required caravel and pdk are moved inside the riscduino docker to avoid the external dependency. 
- flow automatically pull the required docker based on MPW version.
- To view the docker contents
- RTL simulation docker hardcoded inside File: Makefile
    simenv:
    docker pull riscduino/dv_setup:mpw6

Note-2.1: View the RTL Simulation Docker content

- for MPW-9 caravel and pdk avaible inside riscduino/dv_setup:mpw9 docker this is used for RTL to gds flows
- caravel and pdk envionment are automatically pointed to internal docker pointer
- To view the docker contents

    docker run -ti --rm riscduino/dv_setup:mpw9  bash
    cd /opt/pdk_mpw9     -  pdk folder
    cd /opt/caravel      -  caravel folder 
    env   - Show the internally defined env's
        CARAVEL_ROOT=/opt/caravel
        PDK_ROOT=/opt/pdk_mpw6

Note-3: Clock Gate Plugin integration

Hack-1: Modify following files for synthesis script update

   Directory: OpenSTA (hacks/src/OpenSTA)
   Source Files:
	   OpenLane/scripts/yosys/synth.tcl
	   OpenLane/configuration/synthesis.tcl
	   OpenLane/scripts/utils/utils.tcl
    Modifield File: 
       hacks/clk_gating/synth.tcl
       hacks/clk_gating/synthesis.tcl
       hacks/clk_gating/utils.tcl

Hack-2: Create a pluging directory in openlane and add following files

plugin
   └── yosys
       └── Lighter
           ├── clock_gating_plugin.cc
           ├── README.md
           ├── sky130_clkg_blackbox.v
           └── sky130_ff_map.v

Hack-3: Add ENV to enable clock gating in config.tcl

   set ::env(SYNTH_ENB_CG) 1

Hack-4: Check Clock gate insertion in Generated netlist file

   grep sky130_fd_sc_hd__dlclkp  <your netlist file>

#Timing Analysis

Timing Analysis setup

   make setup-timing-scripts
   make install
   make install_mcw

his will update Caravel design files and install the scripts for running timing.

Running Timing Analysis

make extract-parasitics
make create-spef-mapping
make caravel-sta

#Other Miscellaneous Targets The makefile provides a number of useful that targets that can run LVS, DRC, and XOR checks on your hardened design outside of openlane’s flow.

Run make help to display available targets.

Run lvs on the mag view,

make lvs-<macro_name>

Run lvs on the gds,

make lvs-gds-<macro_name>

Run lvs on the maglef,

make lvs-maglef-<macro_name>

Run drc using magic,

make drc-<macro_name>

Run antenna check using magic,

make antenna-<macro_name>

Run XOR check,

make xor-wrapper

Tool Sets

Riscduino Soc flow uses Openlane tool sets.

Synthesis
1. yosys - Performs RTL synthesis
2. abc - Performs technology mapping
3. OpenSTA - Pefroms static timing analysis on the resulting netlist to generate timing reports
Floorplan and PDN
1. init_fp - Defines the core area for the macro as well as the rows (used for placement) and the tracks (used for routing)
2. ioplacer - Places the macro input and output ports
3. pdn - Generates the power distribution network
4. tapcell - Inserts welltap and decap cells in the floorplan
Placement
1. RePLace - Performs global placement
2. Resizer - Performs optional optimizations on the design
3. OpenPhySyn - Performs timing optimizations on the design
4. OpenDP - Perfroms detailed placement to legalize the globally placed components
CTS
1. TritonCTS - Synthesizes the clock distribution network (the clock tree)
Routing
1. FastRoute - Performs global routing to generate a guide file for the detailed router
2. CU-GR - Another option for performing global routing.
3. TritonRoute - Performs detailed routing
4. SPEF-Extractor - Performs SPEF extraction
GDSII Generation
1. Magic - Streams out the final GDSII layout file from the routed def
2. Klayout - Streams out the final GDSII layout file from the routed def as a back-up
Checks
1. Magic - Performs DRC Checks & Antenna Checks
2. Klayout - Performs DRC Checks
3. Netgen - Performs LVS Checks
4. CVC - Performs Circuit Validity Checks
