07:41 <GitHub115> scripts/master 99de8c1 Xiangfu Liu: scripts/compile-*.sh: update rtems commit

08:46 <Fallenou> xiangfu: thanks for your email :)

09:01 <xiangfu> Fallenou, I will try to write some code in Makefile. apply that patch automatic. :)

09:05 <Fallenou> great :)

09:05 <Fallenou> xiangfu: I noticed that freetype2 download fails

09:05 <Fallenou> I had to download it manually inside /dl/ and touch freetype2****.ok

09:05 <Fallenou> maybe a dead link or something

09:05 <Fallenou> sourceforge sucks for direct links ...

09:09 <xiangfu> Fallenou, I will try to fix that.

09:10 <Fallenou> good luck, maybe hosting the file on QI webserver would help ...

09:12 <Fallenou> xiangfu: could you also update the autotool version needed by RTEMS in the readme.html ?

09:12 <xiangfu> Fallenou, ok. I will do that later today.

09:12 <Fallenou> Ubuntu 12.04 provides autotools 2.68, but now RTEMS needs 2.69

09:13 <Fallenou> an endless race between bleeding edge RTEMS and bleeding edge Ubuntu :p

09:13 <xiangfu> got it.

09:13 <xiangfu> Fallenou, I am transferring pcb design from photo paper to PCB now. :-)

09:14 <Fallenou> ohoh :)

09:14 <Fallenou> good luck !

09:14 <Fallenou> your Spartan 6 PCB ?

09:14 <xiangfu> yes

09:17 <xiangfu> 0.6mil is really tiny line for hand make

09:22 <wpwrak> 15 micron ? are you making chips ? :)

09:23 <wpwrak> the Intel 4004 and 8008 were made with 10 um processes. so with 15 um you're close.

09:24 <wpwrak> but maybe you mean 6 mil, and what you're making is a PCB ? :)

09:29 <xiangfu> wpwrak, oh. that 6mil.

09:29 <xiangfu> that is 6mil

09:37 <Fallenou> xiangfu: your Makefile always clone latest RTEMS revision ? or a specific SHA-1 ?

09:38 <xiangfu> Fallenou, latest 'master' branch.

09:38 <Fallenou> ok

09:39 <Fallenou> thanks for the quick commits !

09:39 <xiangfu> there is 'make milkymist-git-update': NOTICE. that will delete all your local commit/uncommit etc.

09:40 <Fallenou> reset --hard ?

09:40 <xiangfu> make milkymist-git-update: will run git fetch -a && git checkout -f master && git reset --hard origin/master

09:40 <Fallenou> ok I see :)

09:40 <xiangfu> I only use that on buildhost.

09:40 <Fallenou> I didn't know "quilt" tool

09:41 <xiangfu> tools for mange the patches. git have a similar wrap app. named 'stg'

09:42 <Fallenou> maybe we should add this to the requirements

09:42 <Fallenou> "Install the following packages (needed tool / package name):"

09:43 <Fallenou> (quilt)

09:47 <xiangfu> Fallenou, yes.

09:48 <Fallenou> OK I think I have annoyed you enough in the morning :p

09:48 <Fallenou> many thanks

09:50 <xiangfu> Fallenou, not at all. I like bugs/issues. bugs mean something I can fix or learn. :-)

09:51 <xiangfu> Fallenou, good evening btw. :-D dinner time. bbl

09:51 <Fallenou> have a nice diner !

09:51 <Fallenou> good evening (morning here :p)

14:58 <lekernel> http://www.maximintegrated.com/app-notes/index.mvp/id/3222 didn't know someone actually did it... thought it was only a research thing

15:03 <wpwrak> you mean analog and digital mixed ? that's been done a very long time ago already. check out the cypress psoc chips. (series 1 ... from 2002)

15:08 <lekernel> no, "single instruction" CPU

15:19 <lekernel> I'm looking for a good name for a simple "python-to-HDL" compiler

15:20 <lekernel> something that takes functions written in a subset of python, and generates ALU + IO + FSM

15:25 <wpwrak> a "marketing" name or a descriptive term ?

15:27 <lekernel> a relatively descriptive term that doesn't sound too bad would be best

15:31 <lekernel> pymic?

15:31 <lekernel> python to migen compiler

15:34 <wpwrak> (single-instruction) the return of the accumulator ... well, unpipelined cpus aren't new. don't remember any architecture that specifically drops everything to one cycle, though. but then, maybe they just cheat and have special sequences for memory accesses. these could then work just like a pipeline.

15:35 <wpwrak> pymig ? drop the compiler

15:38 <lekernel> I like the fact that it sounds like "mimic"

15:44 <larsc> py2hdl

15:46 <wpwrak> no good words with mig*. if mignonette was a proper tree, you could put a snake around it, but it's a bit too tiny for a mighty python

15:48 <wpwrak> migpy ... close to "magpie". some of them look cute.

15:49 <wpwrak> (mimic) but it's a compiler, not an interpreter :) "mig" from "migration" may be a better fit

15:54 <wpwrak> you could also try to use the "petrified snake" angle. you start with a snake (python) and end up with something "hard".

15:54 <wpwrak> alas, petrified snakes don't seem to be common enough for them to have their own word

16:03 <wpwrak> pytholite ? similar to pyrolite, but about pythons, not fire

16:05 <wpwrak> also seems to be a brand name for lamps

16:06 <wpwrak> lamps used for growing cannabis :) (well, among others uses, i'm sure)

16:10 <lekernel> haha

16:10 <lekernel> I like it

17:19 <lekernel> thanks wpwrak
