Dynamically Allocated Neural Network (DANA) Accelerator ======================================== A [Chisel3](https://github.com/ucb-bar/chisel3) implementation of a fully connected neural network accelerator, DANA, supporting inference or learning. DANA follows a transactional model of computation supporting simultaneous multithreading of transactions [[1]](#cite-pact2015). DANA integrates with the [RISC-V Rocket microprocessor](https://github.com/ucb-bar/rocket-chip) as a Rocket Custom Coprocessor (RoCC). This is currently compatibile with [rocket-chip:f3299ae9](https://github.com/ucb-bar/rocket-chip/commit/f3299ae91d3f01d0349eb4746886e303e8fb1b41) -- an older rocket-chip version used by fpga-zynq. ### tl;dr: Setup This is compatible with [ucb-bar/fpga-zynq:f03***2e](https://github.com/ucb-bar/fpga-zynq/commit/f03***2e6a155d333b3b37081858***745df5d4004). Clone this repo, add DANA, and build: ```bash # Clone fpga-zynq git clone https://github.com/ucb-bar/fpga-zynq $fpga_zynq_dir cd $fpga_zynq_dir git reset --hard f03***2e git submodule update --init rocket-chip testchipip # Add DANA to rocket-chip cd $fpga_zynq_dir/rocket-chip git submodule update --init git clone https://github.com/bu-icsg/dana cd $fpga_zynq_dir/rocket-chip/dana git submodule update --init # Build an emulator cd $fpga_zynq_dir/rocket-chip/emulator make ROCKETCHIP_ADDONS=dana CONFIG=DanaEmulatorConfig # Build example DANA networks in 'dana/build/nets' cd $fpga_zynq_dir/rocket-chip/dana make # Build bare metal tests for DANA in 'dana/tests/build' cd $fpga_zynq_dir/rocket-chip/riscv-tools git submodule update --init --recursive riscv-tests cd $fpga_zynq_dir/rocket-chip/dana/tests autoconf mkdir build cd build ../configure make # Run tests on the emulator with or without printfs cd $fpga_zynq_dir/rocket-chip/emulator ./emulator-rocketchip-DanaEmulatorConfig \ ../dana/tests/build/nets/xfiles-dana-nets-p-xorSigmoidSymmetric ./emulator-rocketchip-DanaEmulatorConfig \ +verbose \ ../dana/tests/build/nets/xfiles-dana-nets-p-xorSigmoidSymmetric \ 2>&1 | \ spike-dasm | \ tee xfiles-dana-nets-p-xorSigmoidSymmetric.log ``` To build Verilog suitable for Zynq FPGAs (Zedboard, ZC706): ```bash # Add a Zedboard configuration to fpga-zynq echo "class DanaZedboardConfig extends Config ( new rocketchip.HasDanaRocc ++ new xfiles.DefaultXFilesConfig ++ new dana.DanaConfig( numPes = 2, cache = 1, cacheSize = 512 * 1024, scratchpad = 16 * 1024) ++ new dana.DefaultDanaConfig ++ new ZynqConfig)" >> $fpga_zynq_dir/common/src/main/scala/Configs.scala # Build for the FPGA (Zedboard) cd $fpga_zynq_dir/zedboard make rocket ROCKETCHIP_ADDONS=dana CONFIG=DanaZedboardConfig make project ROCKETCHIP_ADDONS=dana CONFIG=DanaZedboardConfig make fpga-images-zedboard/boot.bin CONFIG=DanaZedboardConfig ``` ### Table of Contents - [Setup](#setup) - [1 - Clone the Rocket Chip Repository](#clone-the-rocket-chip-repo) - [2 - Build a RISC-V Toolchain](#riscv-toolchain) - [Software Emulation](#emulation) - [Rocket + DANA Emulation](#emulation-rocket-chip) - [Debugging](#emulation-debugging) - [Printf Debugging](#printf-debugging) - [Waveform Debugging](#waveform-debugging) - [Hardware Evaluation](#hardware) - [FPGA Target](#fpga-target) - [1 - Verilog Generation](#verilog-generation) - [2 - Create a Vivado Project](#vivado-project) - [3 - Generate Zynq Configuration](#boot-bin) - [4 - Load the SD Card](#load-sd-card) - [5 - Test on the FPGA](#test-on-the-fpga) - [Known Issues, WIP Features](#known-issues) - [Configuration Size](#configuration-size) - [Linux Support](#linux-support) - [IO Queues](#io-queues) - [Additional Documentation](#documentation) - [Attribution](#attribution) - [Doc Directory](#doc-directory) - [Publications](#publications) - [Workshop Presentations and Posters](#presentations-posters) - [Contributors and Acknowledgments](#contributors-acknowledgments) ### Setup Requirements: * `python 3.X` * `numpy` * `scipy` * All dependencies needed for the [RISC-V toolchain](https://www.github.com/riscv/riscv-tools) 1) Clone the Rocket Chip Repository ---------------------------------------- This is not, at present, a standalone repository and must be cloned inside of an existing Rocket Chip clone. The following will grab a supported version of rocket-chip and clone DANA inside of it: ``` git clone https://github.com/ucb-bar/rocket-chip $ROCKETCHIP_DIR cd $ROCKETCHIP_DIR git reset --hard f3299ae91d3f01d0349eb4746886e303e8fb1b41 git submodule update --init --recursive git clone https://github.com/bu-icsg/dana cd dana git submodule update --init ``` 2) Build the RISC-V Toolchain ---------------------------------------- This requires a supported version of the RISC-V toolchain. Go ahead and build the version of the toolchain pointed at by the rocket-chip repository. This requires setting the `RISCV` environment variable and satisfying any dependencies required to build the toolchain. ``` cd $ROCKETCHIP_DIR/riscv-tools ./build.sh ``` ### Emulation (Functional Verification) This project uses [Chisel3](https://github.com/ucb-bar/chisel3) and [FIRRTL](https://github.com/ucb-barc/firrtl) for hardware design and Verilog generation. #### Rocket Chip Emulation You can build a complete version of Rocket Chip that includes DANA in a RoCC socket. You can build an emulator of Rocket + DANA using the rocket-chip make target inside the rocket-chip/emulator directory. The Makefile just needs to know what configuration we're using and that we have additional Chisel code located in the `dana` directory: ```bash cd $ROCKETCHIP/emulator make CONFIG=DanaEmulatorConfig ROCKETCHIP_ADDONS=dana ``` We provide bare-metal test programs inside the [tests](tests) directory. #### Emulation Debugging For debugging or running the emulator more verbosely, you have the option of either relying on Chisel's `printf` or building a version of the emulator that supports full VCD dumping. ##### Printf Debugging Chisel's `printf` writes to STDERR, all `printf` statements are disabled by default. You can enable all Chisel-included `printf` commands with the `+verbose` option: ``` cd $ROCKETCHIP/emulator ./emulator-Top-DanaEmulatorConfig +verbose [binary] 2>&1 | tee run.log ``` Note: Rocket Chip dumps information every cycle and it is often useful to grep for the exact `printf` that you're looking for. ##### Waveform Debugging You can build a "debug" version of the emulator (which provides full support for generating vcd traces with: ``` cd $ROCKETCHIP/emulator make debug ``` This creates a `*-debug` emulator which supports a `-v[FILE]` option for generating a VCD file, a `+start` option for starting VCD dumping at a specific cycle. To further reduce the size of the VCD file we provide a tool that prunes a VCD file to only include signals in a specific module and it's children, [`vcd-prune`](https://github.com/IBM/hdl-tools/blob/master/scripts/vcd-prune). Example usage to only emit DANA signals: ``` cd $ROCKETCHIP_DIR/emulator ./emulator-Top-DanaEmulatorConfig-debug -v- [binary] 2>&1 | ../dana/util/hdl-tools/scripts/vcd-prune -m Dana > run.vcd ``` This waveform can then be viewed using GTKWave by building GTKWave locally and using a helper script to pre-populate the waveform window: ``` cd $ROCKETCHIP/emulator make -C ../dana/util/hdl-tools gtkwave ../dana/util/hdl-tools/scripts/gtkwave-helper run.vcd ``` ### Hardware Evaluation Rocket + DANA can be evaluated on a Zynq FPGA using the Berkeley-provided [`fpga-zynq`](https://github.com/ucb-bar/fpga-zynq) repository. ### Known Issues and WIP Features There are a few remaining things that we're working on closing out which limit the set of available features. #### Configuration Size Currently, the neural network configuration must fit completely in one of DANA's configuration cache memories. DANA's neural network configuration format using 32-bit internal pointers meaning that networks up to 4GiB are theoretically supported. We've used networks up to 512KiB in size on FPGA without issue. #### Linux Support We're working on a full integration of the X-FILES supervisor library with the Linux kernel. Supervisor features are currently supported via system calls added to the [RISC-V Proxy Kernel](https://www.github.com/riscv/riscv-pk) via an included [patch](patches/riscv-pk-xfiles-syscalls.patch). #### IO Queues While neural network configurations are loaded from the memory of the microprocessor, all input and output data is transferred from Rocket to DANA hardware through the Rocket Custom Coprocessor (RoCC) register interface. We have plans to enable asynchronous transfer through in-memory queues. ### Additional Documentation Additional documentation can be found in the [`doc`](doc) directory or in some of our publications. #### Attribution If you use this for research, please cite the original PACT paper: ``` @inproceedings{eldridge2015, author = {Schuyler Eldridge and Amos Waterland and Margo Seltzer and Jonathan Appavoo and Ajay Joshi}, title = {Towards General-Purpose Neural Network Computing}, booktitle = {2015 International Conference on Parallel Architecture and Compilation, {PACT} 2015, San Francisco, CA, USA, October 18-21, 2015}, pages = {99--112}, year = {2015}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/PACT.2015.21}, doi = {10.1109/PACT.2015.21}, timestamp = {Wed, 04 May 2016 14:25:23 +0200}, biburl = {http://dblp.uni-trier.de/rec/bib/conf/IEEEpact/EldridgeWSAJ15}, bibsource = {dblp computer science bibliography, http://dblp.org} } ``` #### Doc Directory Specific documentation includes: * [Binary Encodings and Data Structures](doc/binary-encodings-data-structures.md) * [Debugging](doc/debugging.md) * [FPGA Setup](doc/fpga-setup.md) * [Timing](doc/timing.md) * [Toolflow](doc/toolflow.md) * [U-Boot](doc/u-boot.md) #### Publications [1] S.
