Question

dummy_rocc是RISCV工具中的一个天真的内置RoCC加速器示例，其中定义了几个custom0指令。在设置dummy_rocc之后（在Spike ISA模拟器上或在Rocket-FPGA上，不同），我们使用dummy_rocc_test - 用户程序测试用例来验证dummy_rocc加速器的正确性。我们有两种方法可以在pk（代理内核）或Linux上运行dummy_rocc_test。

我曾经在Spike ISA模拟器上设置了dummy_rocc，dummy_rocc_test在pk或Linux上运行良好。

现在我用Zedboard上的Rocket-FPGA取代Spike。虽然pk上的执行成功了：

root@zynq:~# ./fesvr-zynq pk /nfs/copy_to_rootfs/work/dummy_rocc_test
begin
after asm code
load x into accumulator 2 (funct=0)
read it back into z (funct=1) to verify it
accumulate 456 into it (funct=3)
verify it
do it all again, but initialize acc2 via memory this time (funct=2)
do it all again, but initialize acc2 via memory this time (funct=2)
do it all again, but initialize acc2 via memory this time (funct=2)
success!

Linux上的执行失败：

./fesvr-zynq +disk=/nfs/root.bin bbl /nfs/fpga-zynq/zedboard/fpga-images-zedboard/riscv/vmlinux

屏幕截图显示“signal 4”是由custom0指令引起的。 readelf screenshot of dummy_rocc_test

所以我的问题是“Linux内核如何干扰Zedboard上RISC-V custom0指令的执行？”

dummy_rocc_test的源代码作为参考提供：

// The following is a RISC-V program to test the functionality of the
// dummy RoCC accelerator.
// Compile with riscv64-unknown-elf-gcc dummy_rocc_test.c
// Run with spike --extension=dummy_rocc pk a.out

#include <assert.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

int main() {
  printf("begin\n");
  uint64_t x = 123, y = 456, z = 0;
  // load x into accumulator 2 (funct=0)
// asm  code
   asm volatile ("addi a1, a1, 2");

/// printf again
  printf("after asm code\n");
  asm volatile ("custom0 x0, %0, 2, 0" : : "r"(x));
  printf("load x into accumulator 2 (funct=0)\n");
  // read it back into z (funct=1) to verify it
  asm volatile ("custom0 %0, x0, 2, 1" : "=r"(z));
  printf("read it back into z (funct=1) to verify it\n");
  assert(z == x);
  // accumulate 456 into it (funct=3)
  asm volatile ("custom0 x0, %0, 2, 3" : : "r"(y));
  printf("accumulate 456 into it (funct=3)\n");
  // verify it
  asm volatile ("custom0 %0, x0, 2, 1" : "=r"(z));
  printf("verify it\n");
  assert(z == x+y);
  // do it all again, but initialize acc2 via memory this time (funct=2)
  asm volatile ("custom0 x0, %0, 2, 2" : : "r"(&x));
  printf("do it all again, but initialize acc2 via memory this time (funct=2)\n");
  asm volatile ("custom0 x0, %0, 2, 3" : : "r"(y));
  printf("do it all again, but initialize acc2 via memory this time (funct=2)\n");
  asm volatile ("custom0 %0, x0, 2, 1" : "=r"(z));
  printf("do it all again, but initialize acc2 via memory this time (funct=2)\n");
  assert(z == x+y);

  printf("success!\n");
}

“非法指令”表示您的处理器引发了非法指令异常。

由于custom0不会成为Linux知道如何在软件中执行的东西（因为它可以自定义！），Linux会惊慌失措并抛出你看到的错误。

我遇到的问题是“您是否在处理器中实现了custom0指令？它是否已启用？程序是否正确执行了您的custom0指令并在使用代理内核时返回正确答案？”

为什么Linux内核会干扰Zedboard上RISC-V custom0指令的执行？
