RISC-V Debug Specification

You may be looking for one of the following pre-built PDFs:

• Latest release candidate
• Latest release (This is outdated at this point, and only of historical interest.)

Build Instructions

sudo apt-get install git make python3 python3-sympy graphviz texlive-full
make

There are two other interesting make targets:

1. make debug_defines creates a C header and implementation files containing constants for addresses and fields of all the registers and abstract commands, as well as function and structures used to decode register values. An implementation of such decoder can be seen in debug_reg_printer.c/h.
2. make chisel creates scala files for DM registers and abstract commands with the same information.
