hi , while running the precheck for caravel_user_project got an error with the gpio defines, sharing the screenshots of the same. could any one explain what has gone wrong.

There should be a

verilog/rtl/user_defines.v

file. If you open that, the default has all gpio defaults as invalid. The designer must change each one to reflect the usage of the gpio for their design. There’s a more detailed explanation in the file.

before running precheck I had edited the user_defines.v according to the usage.

/home/kudsit/caravel_user_project/verilog/rtl/user_defines.v

? Can you post the file?

user_defines (1).v

Should the defines not have the same values? https://github.com/efabless/caravel/blob/main/verilog/dv/caravel/defs.h#L218 https://github.com/efabless/caravel/blob/main/verilog/rtl/user_defines.v#L24

I think they do

@Matt Venn you are correct . I was my local version that lacks https://github.com/efabless/caravel/commit/7276623d3cd2b909e83a79f24968b5b547fcef86 . Sorry about the confusion.

they did used to be out of sync

@LEEJA J I think it’s a syntax problem. `define`s in verilog are precede by a

.
Defined variables are also preceded by a

when referenced.

`define USER_CONFIG_GPIO_5_INIT `GPIO_MODE_USER_STD_INPUT_NOPULL
`define USER_CONFIG_GPIO_6_INIT `GPIO_MODE_USER_STD_INPUT_NOPULL
`define USER_CONFIG_GPIO_7_INIT `GPIO_MODE_USER_STD_INPUT_NOPULL
`define USER_CONFIG_GPIO_8_INIT `GPIO_MODE_USER_STD_INPUT_NOPULL
`define USER_CONFIG_GPIO_9_INIT `GPIO_MODE_USER_STD_INPUT_NOPULL
`define USER_CONFIG_GPIO_10_INIT `GPIO_MODE_USER_STD_OUTPUT
`define USER_CONFIG_GPIO_11_INIT `GPIO_MODE_USER_STD_OUTPUT

you got it Mitch
