Implement SPI-P1 from docs/ip/spi.md with a PCLK master, registered APB
responses, packed 8x32 TX/RX FIFOs, finite quotas and retained-session
abort/recovery. Add the handwritten SVH/C register mirror and private
source, credit and GPIO qualification interfaces.
Add independent pin timing and data checks, malformed-waveform negatives,
FIFO stall/resume and phase-safe abort cases. Provide isolated lint,
simulation, compositional formal, synthesis, netlist and observational STA
flows with source-bound artifacts and tool-component fingerprints.
Validation on the reviewed worktree: 2085 pytest tests passed and one
optional pypdf test skipped; both RTL simulators, fresh depth-192 BMC and
cover, and ICS55/IHP130 block synthesis and netlist simulation passed.
Formatting, style/readiness, Ruff and regression dry-runs passed.
SPI remains outside product filelists with DMA capability disabled.
SPI-P2/P3 integration, full-product regression closure and physical/IO
qualification remain pending; no phase acceptance or policy change.
Document the P10 workload, profile selection, exact command matrix,
single-execution policy and retained source/binary identities. Record
matched performance, camera/audio/backend results, P7 and VGA follow-ups,
and the approved quality repairs with their original phase attribution.
Preserve failed attempts and distinguish later successful checks from
historical evidence. Record 2031 passed / 1 skipped for the final Pytest
run, five firmware builds and four byte-identical Tiny HEX comparisons.
Keep phase_accepted=false. Full long Icarus and complete supported
regression, publication/PDF readiness and final physical/PVT/board/sensor
qualification remain open; observed timing is not timing closure.
Validation: documentation links and commands checked; git diff --check
passes. The existing evidence remains bound to its pre-commit revision.
Follow the shared PSRAM model path and bind the DVP DMA selector together
with its Tiny/Mini definition, preserving Mini bulk-channel semantics.
Describe the 129-bit configuration/epoch CDC packet, 128-bit payload
extraction and applied register using the existing RTL. Complete isolated
fixture dependencies and add negative checks for channel, width, slice
and register-bypass drift without relaxing source validation.
The final publication selection passes 163 tests with one optional skip;
the full final worktree passes 2031 tests with the same pypdf skip.
Retain publication identity and strict source-drift checks. No RTL, PDF
generation, source-baseline refresh or physical qualification is included.
Require the implemented DVP-inclusive 0x7fff target set in the P7
acceptance image. Preserve the exact startup comparison and keep the
architectural allowed mask separate from implemented capabilities.
Add cross-source checks against the real SYSCTRL instance and negative
cases for stale, expanded, missing, ambiguous or weakened expectations.
Production capability bits and the HAL ABI are unchanged.
The focused 14-test selection and both ICS55/IHP130 P7 Verilator runs
pass strict Tiny terminal, lifecycle and profile checks. The final
worktree also passes 2031 Pytest tests with one optional pypdf skip.
Add an isolated SAFE24 QVGA capture, CPU statistics and SDIO save/readback
image with passive transaction observers. Keep ordinary images, production
RTL, public interfaces and dependency versions unchanged.
Retain matched binaries and source-bound stage evidence, distinguish
software comparisons from architectural measurements, and reject invalid
terminal results or incompatible resume inputs. Count SDIO descriptors and
status writebacks separately from pixel payload.
Validation on the final worktree includes 2031 passed / 1 skipped Pytest
tests, C format/policy/host checks, and directed observer tests on Icarus
and Verilator. Selected ICS55 and IHP130 SAFE24 campaigns and compact
backend checks pass; negative STA and warning observations are retained.
Complete P10 acceptance remains pending final regression and human review.
Specification: docs/ip/tiny-soc.md, TINY-R2-P10.
Remove one final LF from four Make files to satisfy the existing mbake
1.4.6 configuration. Preserve all other bytes and keep the independent
P10 implementation out of this formatting commit.
Final-worktree validation confirms identical configuration and command
expansion for five firmware variants, including the Mini lint dry-run.
Format, software policy and host checks pass. The existing editorconfig
newline discrepancy remains a separate policy issue.
Document the DVP integration contract, reviewed remediation and source-bound
ICS55/IHP130 evidence, preserving original phase IDs and historical runs.
Record matched firmware binaries, current functional results, observational
STA, warning deltas and unresolved global quality/qualification gaps.
Evidence was produced from 39ae718 plus the archived worktree; retain that
provenance rather than relabeling earlier runs with new commit identities.
P9 human acceptance remains pending. This documentation does not advance P10
or qualify a physical operating point.
Validation: read-only artifact/source hash review and git diff --check.
Add isolated default and camera LibreLane IO profiles, assigning camera
inputs to the pixel clock and keeping ordinary GPIO constraints in default.
Separate generated output roots and synchronize the commercial clock-domain
inventory with the P9 DVP domain.
Retained validation: nine LibreLane scenario tests and 50 commercial-flow/
Tiny reset-inventory tests pass. Constraints retain development assumptions;
no commercial EDA, physical signoff or board timing qualification is claimed.
Specification: docs/ip/tiny-soc.md, TINY-R2-P9.
Connect DVP to Tiny DMA2/request 11, IRQ15 and the camera pad/reset lifecycle.
Harden shared capture CDC, frame statistics, per-row size validation and HAL
cleanup while preserving the Mini DMA3 binding and existing register ABI.
Add deterministic capture/recovery firmware, source-bound evidence tooling,
focused RTL/host tests and compact netlist acceptance. Preserve SAFE24,
128 KiB main SRAM, private Crypto storage and the locked dependencies.
Retained validation: focused RTL, host/policy checks, Mini firmware, and
ICS55/IHP130 RECOVERY, QVGA, synthesis and boot/DVP netlist checks pass.
Full-system VGA remains historical; long full Icarus and broad regressions
remain deferred. Global publication/format gaps and negative observational
STA are retained, not reported as passing qualification.
Specification: docs/ip/tiny-soc.md, TINY-R2-P9.
Evidence: docs/ip/tiny-soc-verification.md.
Present the complete error bundle on the event sampling edge and clear stale
address and PC fields for rejected requests and polling timeouts. Preserve
register encodings, response latency and first-error snapshot semantics.
Add 12 error/IRQ scenarios for Tiny Icarus, Tiny Verilator and the Mini
Verilator consumer. Retained P9 validation covers these paths; see
docs/ip/tiny-soc-verification.md and docs/ip/xpi.md.
Document the optional NSS1 PSRAM contract, workload and evidence policy, P7 acceptance boundary, P8 correction follow-up, and profile-specific synthesis, netlist and observational STA results. Keep full Icarus, physical qualification and human P8 acceptance explicitly open.
Document the RCU ownership, profile/PDK mapping, exact validation commands,
matched firmware, source snapshots and current 06-00 backend evidence.
Separate historical checkpoints and the rejected 04-00 candidate from
current response-conservation and source-reset validation.
State the production DMA drain and common XPI reset preconditions without
claiming unrestricted standalone bridge source-reset support. Record the
54-case directed result, expected-negative checks and unchanged design
inputs that justify retaining the original backend evidence.
Preserve full-suite failures and focused corrections, interrupted Icarus
attempts, final-phase deferral, negative timing and missing physical
qualification. Keep P7 human acceptance and later phases separate.
Integrate the Tiny RCU, normalized REF24 control, external-input profiles,
single PLL backend, SYS/MEM/PCLK clocks, CPU-only WFI gating, peripheral
lifecycle control and retained debug behavior. Keep CPU and all 32 main
SRAM macros on SYS and the six private Crypto macros on PCLK.
Add the handwritten RCU register/HAL contract, RS_EBUSY, bounded SDK
operations and focused firmware. Preserve shared-IP defaults and the
ICS55/PLL SAFE24 boot and explicit IHP130/no-PLL compatibility profiles.
Use APB/AXI domain bridges and source-owned response holders to preserve
backpressured responses, complete aborted bursts and prevent stale replay.
Verify production DMA source-reset drain and common XPI endpoint reset
with extracted integration bindings and an independent scoreboard.
Add source-bound macro/clock audits, SAFE24 observational STA constraints
and commercial-adapter host checks. No P8 functionality or operating-point
qualification is included. See TINY-R2-P7 in docs/ip/tiny-soc.md.
Validation: 54 P7 directed tests pass, including both simulators, ten
source-reset ratio runs and two expected-negative drain mutations.
RTL format/style, clock/reset inventory, Ruff and both Tiny PDK PR dry-runs
pass. Retained 06-00 synthesis and strict netlist boots pass for both PDKs;
STA remains negative and observational. Source comparison confirms only
the follow-up tests changed after that backend campaign.
Evidence: build/ics55-tiny-2026-10-14-06-00-ff4b5cef6eb5/meta/
tiny-r2-p7-source-reset/summary.json. Earlier firmware, HAL and compatibility
results and the non-clean full-suite attempt retain their original
attribution. Full Icarus firmware is deferred to final Tiny qualification;
this commit does not constitute human phase acceptance or physical signoff.
Record parent and child process IDs for diagnostics, persist interruption
before cleanup, and ignore repeated termination signals during cleanup.
Close unexpected failures with a terminal result and retain the child's
exit status without treating namespace-local PID absence as completion.
Require a successful terminal run_flow result when checking simulation
logs with an associated result file. Cover repeated cancellation and
reject running, failed or inconsistent terminal records despite PASS text.
This supports the TINY-R2-P7 campaign. Interrupted and timed-out runs remain
non-acceptance evidence; UART output alone cannot qualify a Tiny simulation.
Advance the approved PWM dependency to
38efaf5e20f084a00148920087c60cadab61839b so Tiny RCU can publish the
committed PCLK rate through the existing PWM register interface.
Keep the static-clock default for existing consumers.
Required by TINY-R2-P7 in docs/ip/tiny-soc.md. The locked checkout and
P7 validation use this exact revision; dependency-lock validation passes.
Record the shared-IP and eight-channel DMA integration, common I2S/SDIO correctness fixes, deterministic workloads, snapshot update scopes and both PDKs' functional and smoke-flow evidence.
Keep original failed attempts, publication history and source attribution intact. The later final full Pytest passed 1726 tests with one optional pypdf skip in 4021.61 seconds, exit 0, in terminal session 36439; it has no standalone verdict log or JSON. Existing campaign evidence is not rewritten by this documentation commit.
Retain explicit negative timing, warning observations, legacy package/floorplan limits and pending physical qualification. Human phase acceptance and any P7 work remain separate.
Integrate RNG, CRC, WS2812, Crypto, I2S master and the SDIO private AXI owner on SAFE24. Preserve the 128 KiB main SRAM and six private Crypto macros, add product-specific DMA assignments and reject unsupported SDK operations.
Correct APB read strobes, I2S receive assembly and SDIO command timing, backpressure and descriptor retirement. Add pin-level workloads, source-bound evidence checks and publication/commercial consumer compatibility.
Validation of the final P6 worktree: 1726 pytest tests passed with one optional pypdf skip (exit 0, 4021.61 seconds; terminal session 36439). Both PDKs passed both RTL simulators, netlist boot and 38-macro binding checks. Shared formal, Mini compatibility and software/source quality gates passed.
Evidence remains attributed to the retained dirty-worktree snapshots based on b3b30a72cd under build/ics55-tiny-2026-10-12-11-50-2eb98c0e1fae/meta/tiny-r2-p6/. Timing is negative and warning observations are not promoted. This commit does not accept P6, qualify physical operation or enable P7.
Document corrected reset behavior, source-bound evidence, validation commands and both PDK timing observations. Mark the earlier reset repair as superseded while preserving its historical attribution.
Retain explicit limits for workload replay, full-function netlist testing and physical qualification. Human phase acceptance and P6 execution remain separate.
Drain remaining write beats before returning B, retain captured R/B responses, and append missing read error beats through the response spills. Preserve first-error attribution and prevent replay after target reset release.
Cover 28 reset scenarios in both simulators, including production DMA drain and APB bridge cases. Extend reset formal checks and publication contract mutation tests.
Validation: 101 focused tests passed; full Pytest reported 1685 passed and one optional pypdf skip. TINY ICS55 and IHP130 PR regressions passed. Timing remains observational and unclosed; no performance or physical qualification is claimed.
