We're pleased to announce that lowRISC is taking part in Google Summer of Code as a mentoring organisation. We're working with a number of our friends in the wider free and open source software and hardware communities to provide a range of project ideas in a number of different implementation languages covering every level of the hardware/software stack. GSoC provides a stipend of $5500 for selected students to work on open source over the summer.
Student applications open on Monday 16th March. For more information, see the GSoC FAQ https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_ program/google/gsoc2015/help_page. The full lowRISC ideas list is available here http://www.lowrisc.org/docs/gsoc-2015-ideas/, and the titles are listed below. We're also very interested in student-proposed ideas. Massive thanks are due to everyone who has volunteered to mentor.
* A fully open source FPGA compilation flow using Yosys * Accessing the OpenCores ecosystem (implementing a Wishbone to TileLink bridge) * jor1k port to RISC-V * Extend Tavor to support directed generation of assembly test cases * Constrained randomised testing with coverage tracking in Cocotb * TCP offload to minion cores using rump kernels * Schematic Viewer for Netlists (SVG/JavaScript) * Porting Icarus Verilog to JavaScript using Emscripten * Optimized ray tracer for Nyuzi parallel processor * Porting musl libc to RISC-V * LLVM pass for control-flow hijacking protection using lowRISC’s tagged memory * Porting L4/FIASCO.OC to RISC-V * Adding Chisel support to FuseSoC * Trace Debugging Infrastructure for lowRISC * OCaml native code port to RISC-V * JTAG hardware debugging support for Nyuzi
Even if you're not a student, we'd appreciate your help in spreading the word to ensure we get the best possible applicants. As ever, we invite you to subscribe to the lowrisc-dev discussion list http://listmaster.pepperfish.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ lowrisc-dev-lists.lowrisc.org, idle on #lowRISC on irc.oftc.net, and follow @lowRISC on Twitter.
