Building the GCC toolchain

It is recommended to build the toolchain from source.

git clone https://github.com/riscv/riscv-gnu-toolchain.git
cd riscv-gnu-toolchain
git submodule update --init --recursive
export RISCV=/opt/riscv
./configure --prefix="${RISCV}" --enable-multilib
make linux

After it is built, add the $RISCV/bin folder to your PATH. The built toolchain works for both 32-bit and 64-bit.

Alternatively, any pre-built toolchain with multilib enabled should work.

Getting the Simulator

You can use either RISC-V ISA Simulator or QEMU >= v4.2 shipped with your Linux distribution.

If you prefer to build qemu from source, make sure you have the correct target enabled.

git clone https://git.qemu.org/git/qemu.git
cd qemu
mkdir build
cd build
../configure --prefix=/opt/riscv --target-list=riscv64-softmmu,riscv32-softmmu
make

Building seL4test

Checkout the sel4test project using repo as per seL4Test

repo init -u https://github.com/seL4/sel4test-manifest.git
repo sync
mkdir cbuild
cd cbuild
../init-build.sh -DPLATFORM=spike -DRISCV64=1
# The default cmake wrapper sets up a default configuration for the target platform.
# To change individual settings, run `ccmake .` and change the configuration
# parameters to suit your needs.
ninja
./simulate

Generated binaries can be found in the images/ directory.

You can also use run the tests on the 32-bit spike platform by replacing the -DRISCV64=TRUE option with -DRISCV32=TRUE.
