1 # CMSIS-Core Validation
3 This folder contains a test suite that validates CMSIS-Core implementations. It uses [**Fixed Virtual Platforms**](https://developer.arm.com/Tools%20and%20Software/Fixed%20Virtual%20Platforms) to run tests to verify correct operation of the CMSIS-Core functionality on various Arm Cortex based processors.
9 ┣ 📂 Include Include files for test cases etc.
10 ┣ 📂 Layer Layers for creating the projects.
11 ┣ 📂 Project Solution and project files to build tests for various configurations.
12 ┗ 📂 Source Test case source code.
17 Currently, the following build configurations are provided:
20 - Arm Compiler 6 (AC6)
27 - Cortex-M4 (with FPU)
28 - Cortex-M7 (with DP FPU)
30 - w/o security extensions (TrustZone)
33 - Cortex-M33 (with FPU and DSP extensions)
34 - w/o security extensions (TrustZone)
37 - Cortex-M35P (with FPU and DSP extensions)
38 - w/o security extensions (TrustZone)
41 - Cortex-M55 (with FPU and DSP extensions)
42 - w/o security extensions (TrustZone)
45 - Cortex-M85 (with FPU and DSP extensions)
46 - w/o security extensions (TrustZone)
55 3. Optimization Levels
63 The following tools are required to build and run the CoreValidation tests:
65 - [CMSIS-Toolbox 2.1.0](https://artifacts.keil.arm.com/cmsis-toolbox/2.1.0/)*
66 - [CMake 3.25.2](https://cmake.org/download/)*
67 - [Ninja 1.10.2](https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/releases)*
68 - [Arm Compiler 6.20](https://artifacts.keil.arm.com/arm-compiler/6.20/21/)*
69 - [GCC Compiler 13.2.1](https://artifacts.keil.arm.com/arm-none-eabi-gcc/13.2.1/)*
70 - [Clang Compiler 17.0.1](https://github.com/ARM-software/LLVM-embedded-toolchain-for-Arm/releases/tag/release-17.0.1)*
71 - [Arm Virtual Hardware for Cortex-M based on FastModels 11.22.39](https://artifacts.keil.arm.com/avh/11.22.39/)*
72 - [Python 3.9](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
74 The executables need to be present on the `PATH`.
75 For tools distributed via vcpkg (*) this can be achieved automatically:
78 ./CMSIS/CoreValidation/Project $ vcpkg activate
81 Install the Python packages required by `build.py`:
84 ./CMSIS/CoreValidation/Project $ pip install -r requirements.txt
89 To build and run the CoreValidation tests for one or more configurations use the following command line.
90 Select the `<compiler>`, `<device>`, and `<optimize>` level to `build` and `run` for.
93 ./CMSIS/CoreValidation/Project $ ./build.py -c <compiler> -d <device> -o <optimize> [build] [run]
96 For example, build and run the tests using GCC for Cortex-M3 with low optimization, execute:
99 ./CMSIS/CoreValidation/Project $ ./build.py -c GCC -d CM3 -o none build run
100 [GCC][Cortex-M3][none](build:csolution) csolution convert -s Validation.csolution.yml -c Validation.GCC_low+CM3
101 [GCC][Cortex-M3][none](build:csolution) csolution succeeded with exit code 0
102 [GCC][Cortex-M3][none](build:cbuild) cbuild Validation.GCC_low+CM3/Validation.GCC_low+CM3.cprj
103 [GCC][Cortex-M3][none](build:cbuild) cbuild succeeded with exit code 0
104 [GCC][Cortex-M3][none](run:model_exec) VHT_MPS2_Cortex-M3 -q --simlimit 100 -f ../Layer/Target/CM3/model_config.txt -a Validation.GCC_low+CM3/Validation.GCC_low+CM3_outdir/Validation.GCC_low+CM3.elf
105 [GCC][Cortex-M3][none](run:model_exec) VHT_MPS2_Cortex-M3 succeeded with exit code 0
