Missing ../.config.mk file

aolofsson opened this issue · 3 comments

The file libsystemctlm-soc/tests/Makefile makes a call to ../.config.mk, which is missing in the git repo. README does not specify adding an empty file as mandatory.

Would help on-ramp if the examples ran out of the box without the need to manually add/edit an in tree file. (file is being filtered in .gitignore)

After adding an .config.mk empty file and deleting my .local python lib (my issue!), the examples run and generate nice vcd wafeforms that make chipheads like me feel at home.:-) Very nice!

Maybe just add something like "touch .config.mk" to the README?

Thanks Andreas,

I've now made the .config.mk optional (no need to create anything unless the user needs/wants to override some default setting).

I also noticed that in recent Ubuntu, there's a libsystemc-dev package. Installing that means there're no manual installation steps needed to run the testsuite anymore. I've updated the README to reflect that.

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
Edgar

Hi Edgar,
It was ok as it was but I am sure this will save some debug time for some new users.
Thank you for supporting the community!
