Preface

This repository provides Dockerfile to build Chisel3 development environment with Verilator on CentOS7.

Dockerfile

See docker/Dockerfile.

Docker Hub

Everytime making tag(~6 mo), uploading image as well. https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/nsatoshi/centos7-verilator

How To Build for both Linux and Windows10 users

For your docker build,

$> docker-compose build

The contaier build is supporting both x86_64 and arm64 architecture.

c6i.2xlarge(8xCPU)	c6g.2xlarge(8xCPU)
159m16.698s	197m43.996s

Or you can pull pre-build image from docker hub instead(x86_64 only).

$> docker pull nsatoshi/centos7-verilator:latest

How to Start container and ssh login

Start container as daemon mode.

$> docker-compose up -d

Linux user

In linux system, you can find which port has been asigned to Docker ssh.

export PORT22=`sh -c "docker container port my_verilator 22/tcp | sed -E "1s/^.+://" | head -n 1"`

Then ssh connect from your host. user0 password is set to "user0".

$> ssh -X -p ${PORT22} user0@localhost

Or you can register the ssh connection in your ~/.ssh/config. This is often used for VS Code Remote Explore.

Host LocalDocker
    HostName localhost
    User user0
    Port <set your port>
    ForwardX11 yes
    ServerAliveInterval 120
    ServerAliveCountMax 60

Windows 10 user

In windows 10, you can check port the assignment from docker desktop application.

Then ssh connect from your host. Recommending to use MobaXterm as ssh terminal. user0 password is set to "user0".
