Release-8 build issues

shareefj

Hi there,

I've been trying to re-familiarise with Nix and have tried to build Release 8 but am having difficulties. I first tried to enter the Nix shell by running nix develop from the artiq-zynq root directory. Then if I follow the instructions in the User Manual, running gateware/kasli_soc.py -g ../build/gateware <description.json> which errors out with a missing module for fastnumbers from ramda.

I then tried to use the nix build flow as detailed in https://m-labs.hk/artiq/manual/building_developing.html#kasli-soc-or-zc706-artiq-on-zynq, but this bombs out telling me /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2022.2/settings64.sh doesn't exist when it does.

kasli_soc-master-gateware> /etc/profile: line 19: /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2022.2/settings64.sh: No such file or directory

ll /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2022.2/settings64.sh -rwxr-xr-x 1 shareefj shareefj 478 Sep 10 20:53 /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2022.2/settings64.sh

What am I missing? It feels like user error as I'd assume the pre-canned flows should Just Work (TM).

Hi shareefj,

This might be related to a similar case discussed here: https://forum.m-labs.hk/d/617-kasli-soc-set-up/17.

For the missing module, ensure your artiq-zynq clone is up-to-date. Check if the line here includes the fastnumbers dependency. After verifying, rerun nix develop.

You did not set up Nix correctly with /opt as a sandbox path.
