[33:28][Q&A]
|
|
[34:33][@mistyr0se][@pervognsen Do you have an idea of the kind of OS you're going to be making? A Unix clone?]
|
|
[36:41][@badcodeshane][@pervognsen You mentioned that fluency in C is a requirement. Presumably very little will be syntax dependent and you just mean "fluency in systems level programming", and I'll just be able to coast by with fluency in Rust instead?][:language]
|
|
[37:37][@godling72][@pervognsen For the compiler, are you going to use an existing RV32I emulator for testing?]
|
|
[38:32][@c__jm][@pervognsen Have you looked at JAI from [@jon Jon Blow] very much?][:language]
|
|
[39:47][@pragmascrypt][@pervognsen Any specific reason to using Verilog over VHDL for compile target? VHDL seems to be a bit more popular with FPGAs][:language]
|
|
[40:45][@badcodeshane][@pervognsen Will you be supporting UEFI?][:firmware]
|
|
[41:01][@pixelpoet][@pervognsen 0. How long until I can write some small graphics demos for the computer, e.g. ray tracers? 1. Would it be possible to get a "max performance" mode without :memory virtualisation / page tables, preemption?][:rendering]
|
|
[42:25][@onebloke][@pervognsen Do you plan for the CPU and OS to be multicore?][:hardware]
|
|
[43:49][@badcodeshane][@pervognsen Can I just say how excited I am to see you kicking off this project? As someone who didn't attend university, it's hard to break into things like compiler design and :firmware programming, so this could be a great resource for people like myself to become acquainted with these more abstract, esoteric topics]
|
|
[44:51][@markajohnson][@pervognsen Not directly relevant to the content you're presenting, but what time zone are you in?][:trivia]
|
|
[45:22][@heroickatora][@pervognsen Do you intend to include the community in development, e.g. discussion groups on some interfaces, taking pull requests?]
|
|
[47:45][@heasummn][What HDL will you be using to create the CPU?][:hardware :language]
|
|
[48:44][@pmttavara][@pervognsen As the project progresses do you foresee any problems with backwards compatibility, e.g. breaking changes for community-driven projects?]
|
|
[50:15][@mistyr0se][@pervognsen How long do you think the stream will go on for?]
|
|
[51:24][@filiadelski][@pervognsen How do we support you?]
|
|
[53:25][@nyear][How often will you stream? Every day?]
|
|
[54:05][@jprzemieniecki][@pervognsen Is the project supposed to be mimicking state-of-the-art but with corners cut, or just an example way to do things? For example, is the compiler planned with the SSA IR the way compilers seem to prefer, or more like something from a dragon's book?]
|
|
[57:16][@badcodeshane][By targeting a :hardware description :language, the OS will be virtualised, right? I'll be able to run it within VirtualBox or something similar?]
|
|
[58:38][@pmttavara][@pervognsen Someone in discord asked: Will you code your own DDR3 controller or will you use the FPGA's one?]
|
|
[59:38][@eddywm][You're on Windows. Can folks on Linux be assured to find these tools that are needed?]
|
|
[1:00:48][@riskyfive][I designed an SDRAM controller for the Papilio Pro (Spartan 6 LX9), but I had to add an additional cycle of latency. Do you have an oscilloscope to look at the :memory signals?]
|
|
[1:02:11][@symbolic_butt][@pervognsen I just came in, sorry if this was said before but the sound is super low]
|
|
[1:02:31][@doomguyfieri][Have you already decided what FPGA will be used, or is that a decision that will be made later?][:hardware]
|
|
[1:03:24][@nuttynutnutnutter][@pervognsen You can rent high-end oscilloscopes on a short-term basis, if necessary]
|
|
[1:04:03][@badcodeshane][Will you be going offline after the Q&A or getting started?]
|
|
[1:04:24][@godling72][@pervognsen The non high-end oscilloscope version would be educational]
|
|
[1:05:37][@nuttynutnutnutter][@pervognsen: Maybe you mentioned it (I missed the first \~30 minutes of the stream), but it sounds like you're going to be doing a PCB design also? If so, Kicad, Altium, OrCad, Eagle, etc?][:hardware]
|
|
[1:06:14][@jim0_o][@pervognsen I don't know much about FPGAs so I wonder, is it considered something for prototyping or is it meant to be used in finished products?][:fabrication :hardware]
|
|
[1:08:59][@kryu][@pervognsen Would you consider doing an upfront brain-dump doc of some of the references, books and such, that you've found worth the time related to the topics within the scope of the project?]
