<_florent_> joseng: no problem, it's useful to have such feedback to improve the doc/wiki

<trabucayre> keesj: too late to see the price :(
<trabucayre> just to know (and for christmas), are there a board with PCIe and GPIOs for a decent price ?
<keesj> wassup with PCIe? is this how most FPGA are running on the cloud? or is there an ohter use case?

<trabucayre> keesj: to learn/play :)

<lkcl> _florent_: interesting side-effect of a bus width of 64, CSR bank width of 8, and a GPIO bank of 16
SpaceCoaster has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds]
<lkcl> the GPIOs are truncated to only 8
<lkcl> this is detected only when compiling with yosys at the ASIC level because only yosys detects that the top 8 GPIO outs are not connected to their CSRs... or... the enables are not connected and a cascade-effect removes them
<lkcl> i think this is happening when crossing over a non-aligned boundary
<lkcl> i.e. a previous CSR made the GPIO one an odd-numbered CSR bank
<lkcl> maybe
<lkcl> hard to tell from looking at 10,000 lines of auto-generated verilog :)

<keesj> trabucayre: ^^ but no experience with it
<tpb> Title: NiteFury | Crowd Supply (at www.crowdsupply.com)
<keesj> well it has some other connectivity
<keesj> 99 is a nice price no?
<trabucayre> keesj: true niteFury is more correct for me :)
<trabucayre> thank

<felix_> there are also basically clones of the nitefury that were used as bitcoin miners and now that they're getting decomissioned they are sold for 60-ish euro on ebay
<felix_> acorn cle-215+ is the board; it's more like 80 euro after shipping though
<trabucayre> need to compare before writting my christmas list :)
<Finde> there are a few differences in ram and number of luts that you'll probably want to keep an eye on
<Finde> cle-215+ is a pretty good tradeoff imo
<trabucayre> I'm interrested to have some GPIOs
<trabucayre> but Yes seems a good option
<_florent_> trabucayre: the Acorn is indeed very interesting, it has a limited number of IOs but has 1GB DDR3 / PCIe Gen2 X4 / XC7A200T
<_florent_> you can do nice things with it:
<_florent_> Linux SoC with PCIe, VexRiscv SMP: https://twitter.com/enjoy_digital/status/1257985111469015040
<_florent_> etc... :)
<_florent_> lkcl: I'll try to have a look tomorrow
<trabucayre> _florent_: thanks. I think I will order one
<trabucayre> I need to validate some small thing with my zynq before :)
<keesj> living in EU .. I often get to pay extra for stuff shipped by crowsupply
<trabucayre> keesj: yep. I've found acorn in ebay (with extra)

<trabucayre> whoua!
<zyp> there's some other nice looking ones in that store as well, like this one https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001631827738.html

<Finde> oh that 325t is intersting
<Finde> those could be fun to play with
<trabucayre> yes but a bit expensive :(
<_florent_> zyp: the boards from this shop are indeed very interesting regarding features/price
<_florent_> I already have some but not the one you linked
<zyp> how is the quality?
<_florent_> I was going to comment on this :)
<_florent_> I won't build a project based on these boards, but they are nice to play with or do development
<_florent_> that's clearly not the quality you can get from Digilent for example
<_florent_> but the board cost less than the FPGA itself, so...
<zyp> yeah, I get the impression they are thrown together by some independent designer that happens to have a cheap source of parts
<lkcl> _florent_: i am suspecting a possible bug with coriolis2 however there it is even harder to tell because it's fragmented things down to cell-level connections.
<lkcl> consequently, greatly appreciate the help eliminating litex as a potential source. it is extremely weird error
<lkcl> _florent_: that's the auto-generated output from ls180soc.py
