Scripts to build and use docker images including GHDL
Install / Use
/learn @ghdl/DockerREADME
This repository contains scripts and YAML workflows for GitHub Actions (GHA) to build and to deploy the container images that are used and/or published by the GHDL GitHub organization. All of them are pushed to hub.docker.com/u/ghdl.
ATTENTION: Some images related to synthesis and PnR were moved to hdl/containers and hub.docker.com/u/hdlc. See DEPRECATED.
Images for development (i.e., building and/or testing ghdl):
images include development/build depedendencies for ghdl.
images include runtime dependencies for ghdl.
images include the content of ghdl tarballs built in ghdl/build images.
image is based on
ghdl/build:buster-mcodeandghdl/pkg:buster-mcode; includes Python pip, GNAT GPS, Graphviz and GDB.
Ready-to-use images:
images, which are based on correponding ghdl/run images, include ghdl along with minimum runtime dependencies.
images, which are based on
ghdl/ghdl:bookworm-*images, include ghdl along with VUnit.*-mastervariants include latest VUnit (master branch), while others include the latest stable release (installed through pip).
GHDL and complements (ghdl-language-server, GtkWave, VUnit, etc.).
GHDL and other tools for co-simulation such as SciPy, Xyce or GNU Octave.
See USE_CASES.md if you are looking for usage examples from a user perspective.
GHA workflows
· base
Build and push all the ghdl/build:* and ghdl/run:* docker images. :
- A pair of images is created in one job for
[ ls ]. - One job is created for each of
[ fedora (37 | 38), debian (buster | bullseye | bookworm), ubuntu (20 | 22)], and six images are created in each job; two (ghdl/build:*,ghdl/run:*) for each supported backend[ mcode, llvm*, gcc ].ghdl/debug:baseis created in thedebian busterjob.ghdl/build:docis created in thedebian bookwormjob.
· test
Build and push almost all the ghdl/ghdl:* and ghdl/pkg:* images. A pair of images is created in one job for each combination of:
[ fedora: [37, 38], debian: [bullseye], ubuntu: [20, 22] ]and[mcode, llvm*].[ fedora: [37, 38], debian: [bullseye] ]and[gcc*].- For Debian only,
[bullseye, bookworm]and[mcode]and[--gpl]. - For Debian Buster, only
[mcode].ghdl/debugis created in this job.
The procedure in each job is as follows:
- Repo ghdl/ghdl is cloned.
- ghdl is built in the corresponding
ghdl/build:*image. - A
ghdl/ghdl:*image is created based on the correspondingghdl/run:*image. - The testsuite is executed inside the
ghdl/ghdl:*image created in the previous step. - If successful, a
ghdl/pkg:*image is created fromscratch, with the content of the tarball built in the first step. ghdl/ghdl:*andghdl/pkg:*images are pushed to hub.docker.com/u/ghdl.
NOTE: images with GCC backend include
lcovfor code coverage analysis.
· bookworm [scheduled daily]
Complement of ghdl.yml, to be run after each successful run of the main workflow in ghdl/ghdl. One job is scheduled for each combination of [ bookworm ] and [ mcode, llvm-14 , gcc-12.3.0 ].
· vunit [triggered after workflow 'bookworm']
Build and push all the ghdl/vunit:* images, which are based on the ones created in the 'bookworm' workflow.
- Two versions are published for each backend: one with latest stable VUnit (from PyPI) and one with the latest
master(from Git). - Images with GCC backend include
lcovandgcovrfor code coverage analysis.
· ext [triggered after workflow 'vunit']
Build and push all the ghdl/ext:* images:
ls: ghdl/ext:ls-debian and ghdl/ext:ls-ubuntu (a job for each of them). These include ghdl/ghdl, the ghdl/ghdl-language-server backend and the vscode-client (precompiled but not preinstalled).gui:- ghdl/ext:gtkwave: includes GtkWave (gtk3) on top of ghdl/vunit:llvm-master.
- ghdl/ext:broadway: adds a script to ghdl/ext:gtkwave in order to launch a Broadway server that allows to use GtkWave from a web browser.
- ghdl/ext:ls-vunit: includes VUnit (
master) on top of ghdl/ext:ls-debian. - ghdl/ext:latest: includes GtkWave on top of
ghdl/ext:ls-vunit.
· cosim
See ghdl/ghdl-cosim: docker and ghdl.github.io/ghdl-cosim/vhpidirect/examples/vffi_user.
- ghdl/cosim:mcode: based on ghdl/ghdl:bookworm-mcode, includes GCC.
- ghdl/cosim:py: based on ghdl/ghdl:bookworm-llvm-7, includes Python.
