Bringup-Bench v1.5

Version 1.5

• added support for hash-alone execution, which allows devices with no explicit I/O devices to be tested

The additions to BRINGUP-BENCH VERSION 1.5 bring better support for devices with NO EXPLICIT I/O SUPPORT. The new "hash-alone" targets run the benchmarks with a hash-function output device, producing only a cryptographically unique 64-bit signature for the output of the program. Simply read out that 64-bit value to validate the execution of the benchmark. To help in debugging of RISC-V platforms, the "hashalone-spike" target implements the hash-alone target for the RISC-V Spike golden model, which can be used for instruction-by-instruction debugging of your RISC-V designs-under-test.

Bringup-Bench v1.4

Version 1.4

• added RISC-V Spike instruction set simulator (ISS) support, which is 100% compatible with the "simple" RTL target
• 12 new benchmarks added, from AI, compress, audio processing, data processing, etc.
• many improvements to libmin, including a much more complete math library

Bringup-Bench v1.3

Version 1.3

• added support for fine-grained library object files, resulting in an average code size reduction of 40%
• added more benchmarks

Bringup-Bench v1.0
