Project IceStorm – Notes for Installing on OSX

- -

-The toolchain should be easy to install on OSX platforms. Below are a few troubleshooting items found on Mountain Lion (10.8.2). -

- -

-See https://github.com/ddm/icetools for a set of shell scripts to build IceStorm on OSX (using brew for dependencies). -

- -

Installing FTDI Library

- -

-The libftdi package (.so lib binary and the ftdi.h header) has been renamed to libftdi0, so either do: -

- - - -

iceprog make error on "ftdi.h not found"

- -

-Note that Mac Ports installs to /opt instead of /usr, so change the first two lines in iceprog/Makefile to: -

- -
-LDLIBS = -L/usr/local/lib -L/opt/local/lib -lftdi -lm
-CFLAGS = -MD -O0 -ggdb -Wall -std=c99 -I/usr/local/include -I/opt/local/include/
-
- -

-Basically you are indicating where to find the lib with -L/opt/local/lib and where to find the .h with -I/opt/local/include/. -

- -

yosys make error on "<tuple> not found"

- -

-This is a compiler issue, i.e., you are probably running on clang and you can circumvent this error by compiling against another compiler. -Edit the Makefile of yosys and replace the two first lines for this, i.e., comment the first line (clang) and uncomment the second (gcc): -

- -
-#CONFIG := clang
-CONFIG := gcc
-
- -

error "Can't find iCE FTDI USB device (vendor_id 0x0403, device_id 0x6010)." while uploading code to FPGA (e.g., "iceprog example.bin")

- -

-You need to unload the FTDI driver (notes below are from Mountain Lion, 10.8.2). -First check if it is running: -

- -
-kextstat | grep FTDIUSBSerialDriver
-
- -

-If you see it on the kextstat, we need to unload it: -

- -
-sudo kextunload -b com.FTDI.driver.FTDIUSBSerialDriver
-
- -

-Repeat the kextstat command and check that the driver was successfully unloaded. -

- -

-Try running iceprog example.bin again. It should be working now. -

- -

-Note: On newer OSes perhaps you need to also kextunload the com.apple.driver.AppleUSBFTDI driver. -
