 # What is this?

 This is Project Shodan, a project to research the fusion of novel hardware and
 software architectures to produce a low-power, ambient AI core. For more
 information, see our
 [internal site](https://sites.google.com/corp/google.com/cerebrahardware/projects/current-projects/shodan).

 ## Developing in this Codebase

 We've stored our code in Gerrit, and like the Android developers before us, we
 use `repo` to manage the projects in our Gerrit repositories.

 To get started, first make sure you have a Git login for all our projects
 by going to [googlesource.com/new-password](https://www.googlesource.com/new-password)
 and pasting the provided script into a terminal.

 Now you need to pull down a copy of the `repo`
 tool from our public facing sites and add it to your path:

 ```bash
 mkdir -p bin
 export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
 curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
 chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
 ```

 Make sure you've initialized git with your name and email address, and have
 configured it properly for fetching the sources:

 ```bash
 git config --global user.name "Your Name"
 git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
 ```

 Once you've done this, you're actually ready to check out the sources. Make a
 new directory where you'd like it to live, and initialize `repo` with the
 current release branch.

 ```bash
 repo init -u https://spacebeaker.googlesource.com/shodan/manifest -g default,internal --no-use-superproject
 repo sync -j$(nproc)
 ```

 ## System Setup for Development

 Development for shodan requires that the necessary tools and prerequisites be
 installed.

 To setup the build system:

 ```bash
 source build/setup.sh
 ```

 Install the prerequisites:

 ```bash
 m prereqs
 ```

 Install the tools used for development:

 ```bash
 m tools
 ```

 ## Day-to-day Development Workflow

 In general, working with repo is relatively simple:

   1. Create a working topic branch to make changes on with `repo start
      ${TOPICNAME}`
   2. Make your changes to the files. Add them with `git add -A` and commit with
      `git commit`.
   3. Upload your changes with `repo upload --re ${REVIEWER} --cc ${CC_LIST}`
   4. Go to the URL repo spits out to read and reply to comments.
   5. Eventually your reviewer will give you a +2 LGTM on your change. To submit,
      click the "SUBMIT" button on the change in the web interface.
   6. Run `repo sync -j$(nproc)` to update.
   7. Run `repo prune` to remove your topic branch.

 For more information on how to use repo and git effectively, take a look at the
 [official documentation](https://source.android.com/setup/create/coding-tasks).

 ### How to sync my local copy with latest?

 ```bash
 repo sync -j$(nproc)
 ```

 Then if you have any outstanding branches, a `repo rebase` will help.

 ### How to send code for review?

 To upload a branch to gerrit for review, do this:

 ```bash
 repo upload --re reviewer1,reviewer2 --cc email@host.com,email2@host2.com
 ```

 Reviewers can be specified as usernames or full email addresses, likewise for
 `--cc`.

 Repo will then output a URL for you to visit that allows you to make comments
 and abandon and merge the changes into the repository. To make changes during
 the review process, make your changes to the files, then:

 ```bash
 git add -A                                    # To add the files you've changed
 git commit --amend                            # To update the previous change
 repo upload -t --re ${REVIEWER} --cc ${CC_LIST} # To upload the change to Gerrit for review
 ```

 ## Repository Layout

 Our layout is pretty simple:

 ### build/

 Contains build scripts for the whole tree. This is effectively just an
 orchestration layer to make building the whole shebang easier. Each subtree may
 have its own build systems and have their own ways of building.

 ### cache/

 The cached cross-compilation toolchain, including rust and RISC-V GCC/LLVM
 toolchain.

 ### cicd/

 Contains continuous integration scripts and tooling for Jenkins, our CI/CD tool.

 ### docs/

 Lots of extra documentation (we hope) about how the repo is laid out, how the
 build system works, code reviews, licensing, etc.

 ### hw/

 Contains all of the source code and RTL required to build the Shodan
 hardware, as well as simulate it in Verilator.

 #### opentitan

 Security core.

 #### ibex

 System management controller (SMC).

 #### springbok

 Vector core for ML acceleration.

 ### kata/

 Operating system software for the SMC; including seL4 kernel & CAmkES framework,
 and custom CAmkES components that support Shodan (or maybe KataOS) applications.

 ### manifest/

 The repo manifest used to glue all the git repositories together.

 ### scripts/

 Contains utility scripts to help automate a few things.

 ### sim/

 Contains tools and src for simulators (Renode and Verilator) of the shodan system.

 ### sw/

 Contains the source code of applications running in all shodan cores.

 #### libtock-rs

 **TODO**: add more details

 #### multihart_boot_rom

 Bootstrap for System Management Controller, Security Core, and Vector Core. This
 is the first software to run after reset; it does low-level hardware setup and
 starts TockOs (SC) and seL4 (SMC).

 #### pigweed

 pigweed frameworks. Currently it is used for vector core functional tests.

 #### tock

 The operating system running on the Security Core.

 #### vec

 Springbok BSP, as well as the RVV instruction functional tests.

 #### vec_iree

 Springbok IREE application. It builds IREE runtime applications for ML models
 using IREE libraries and Spingbok BSP.

 ### toolchain/

 Contains the src to build the RISCV QEMU emulator, and
 [IREE](https://github/com/google/iree) toolchain for ML models.

 ## Build and Test ML Artifacts

 The ML executable is built with [IREE](https://github.com/google/iree) workflow,
 targeted to RISCV 32-bit bare-metal config.

 To build the IREE targets:

 ```bash
 m iree
 ```

 The IREE compiler sits in `out/host/iree_compiler`, while the runtime library/example
 sits in `out/springbok_iree`.
 To run the toy example (four-element vector element-wise multiplication) for
 testing:

 ```bash
 sim_springbok out/springbok_iree/iree/iree/samples/simple_embedding/simple_embedding_embedded_sync
 ```

 The output should be shown as:

 ```bash
 (machine-0) 18:05:23.6463 [INFO] cpu2: simprint: "simple_embedding done", 0 (0x0)
 18:05:23.6475 [INFO] cpu2: simprint: "main returned: ", 0 (0x0)
 ```

 (Enter quit to exit the Renode simulation)

 ## Running The Full Shodan System Simulation

 The simulator used for Shodan is [Renode](https://renode.io/). The configuration
 for the Shodan system is `sim/config/shodan_all.repl`, while and starting script
 is in `sim/config/shodan_all.resc`

 To run the full system simulation, build the default target:

 ```bash
 m
 ```

 After all the artifacts are bulit, the Renode simulation session automatically
 starts, and you should see the secured core and SMC booted

 ```bash
 10:40:14.6784 [INFO] uart1: [output] init_kernel()
 10:40:14.6807 [INFO] uart1: [output] Init local IRQ
 10:40:14.6831 [INFO] uart1: [output] Bootstrapping kernel
 10:40:14.6842 [INFO] uart1: [output] Initialing PLIC...
 10:40:14.7028 [INFO] uart0: [output] OpenTitan initialisation complete. Entering main loop
 10:40:14.7066 [INFO] uart0: [output] Woo Tock!
 10:40:14.7346 [INFO] uart0: [output] Hello Tock World
 10:40:15.8820 [INFO] uart1: [output] Booting all finished, dropped to user space
 ```

 At this point, you should be able to connect to the SMC debug console.

 ### Setting Up Debug Console Communication

 Install socat to your machine

 ```bash
 sudo apt install socat
 ```

 In a new shell session, launch the debug console with

 ```bash
 scripts/kshell.sh
 ```

 You will see the kataOS prompt showing up when you hit `enter`. Use `ctrl-c` to leave the console.

 ### Connecting to Renode Console

 Renode has its own console to control the emulation environment. You can connect to it by

 ```bash
 telnet localhost 1234
 ```

 For example, you can check the core status

 ```bash
 (matcha) cpu1 IsHalted
 False
 ```

 or stop the whole emulation with

 ```bash
 (matcha) quit
 ```

 ### Launch ML Job on the Vector Core

 You can launch the ML workload execution by communicating through the debug console

 ```bash
 KATA> test_mlexecute
 ```

 and you should see

 ```bash
 10:41:18.3869 [INFO] uart1: [output] KATA> test_mlexecute
 ...
 10:41:18.5931 [INFO] cpu2: simprint: "INFO |simple_vec_mul finished successfully", 0 (0x0)
 10:41:18.5941 [INFO] cpu2: simprint: "main returned: ", 0 (0x0)
 ```
