| # OpenTitan Software |
| |
| This subtree contains all software intended to run on the OpenTitan chip, as well as some tools. |
| |
| ## Building |
| |
| OpenTitan software is built using [Meson](https://mesonbuild.com), although OpenTitan's project structure is sufficiently idiosyncratic that we use a custom workflow. |
| |
| For example, to build the OpenTitan executable located at `sw/device/examples/hello_world` for FPGA, run the following commands: |
| ```console |
| $ cd "$REPO_TOP" |
| $ ./meson_init.sh |
| $ ninja -C build-out sw/device/examples/hello_world/hello_world_export_fpga_nexysvideo |
| ``` |
| |
| The resulting binaries will be located at `build-bin/sw/device/examples/hello_world`. For more information, check out [the relevant User Guide](../doc/ug/getting_started_sw.md). |
| |
| The location of the RISC-V toolchain is /tools/riscv by default. |
| If your toolchain is located elsewhere set the `TOOLCHAIN_PATH` to that path before running `meson_init.sh` |
| |
| ```console |
| $ cd "$REPO_TOP" |
| $ export TOOLCHAIN_PATH=/path/to/toolchain |
| $ ./meson_init.sh |
| ``` |
