Built WITHOUT -DFT_TT_PHASE1B_NOC_ENABLED, so every device # call in the objects it links returns FT_TT_EPERM before touching the NoC. That is not # a formality: it means this binary cannot reach the card even if it is wrong, which is # what makes it safe to run while somebody else owns the silicon. # # make -f Makefile.memory PHASE1B=1 card -> build-memory-card/test_phase6_memory # The ON-CARD acceptance. PHASE1B=1 is mandatory and deliberate (spec §7.3 — a wrong # NoC coordinate hangs the chip and costs a physical power cycle). # # THE SHIM OBJECT IS NOT AN ACCIDENT. tests/ft_tt_memory_device_shim.c compiles the # arithmetic half of kernels/resident_memory_protocol.h for the host, so the off-hardware # suite scores THE KERNEL'S OWN face-offset and run functions rather than a C transcription # of them — a transcription would have agreed with itself, and face order is precisely the # mistake that is invisible to any metric computed through the same wrong code # (docs/tt_kernel_model.md §9). The header includes / and nothing else, # which is a property to KEEP. # # It was a C++ object until 2026-08-13, purely for `extern "C"` linkage over what was then a # C++ header. Phase 6.6 made that header C99, so the shim is plain C now and this suite # needs no C++ compiler at all. # # Run the off-hardware gate from this directory, so FT_TT_KERNEL_DIR's default resolves: # ./build-memory/test_memory_ops # # Run the on-card acceptance (detached, and never with these cores in use by another # worker): # FT_TT_FIRMWARE_DIR=../programs/memory FT_TT_TENSIX_INDEX=30 \ # ./build-memory-card/test_phase6_memory ../programs/memory # # The program directory is a RELOCATE_KERNEL_TEXT=1 build. It has FIVE images because # build_tensix_program.sh builds five; only brisc.elf and ncrisc.elf are ever loaded, and # noop_compute.c is there to satisfy the builder rather than to run — this op has NO # compute thread and its enables mask is DM0|DM1 (kernels/resident_memory_protocol.h says # why that is safe rather than merely small). # # RELOCATE_KERNEL_TEXT=1 READER_CTARGS=16,0,1,2048,1,17 COMPUTE_CTARGS=0 \ # WRITER_CTARGS=16,2048,1,17 \ # build_tensix_program.sh kernels/resident_gather_reader.c \ # kernels/noop_compute.c kernels/resident_place_writer.c \ # programs/memory # # THE RECIPE ABOVE WAS WRONG UNTIL 2026-08-14 — it omitted the trailing CB_OUT_KV on both # lists, giving five/three ctargs where the kernels want six/four. Derived, not guessed: # resident_gather_reader.c:70-75 declares ft_tensix_compile_time_arg(0..5) as # CB_OUT_EMBEDDING / CB_STAGE / CB_INDEX / TILE_BYTES / WAIT_MODE / CB_OUT_KV, and # resident_place_writer.c:69-72 declares (0..3) as CB_OUT_EMBEDDING / TILE_BYTES / # WAIT_MODE / CB_OUT_KV. `ft_tensix_compile_time_arg()` has no bounds check, so a short # list does not fail to build — it reads past the array, which is the case # resident_gather_reader.c:43 documents in its own header. # # No CB_TABLE: a `.cbtable` generates ft_tensix_cb_formats.h for the COMPUTE images, and this # program has no compute kernel. The data-movement images learn their tile size from # READER_CTARGS / WRITER_CTARGS, and those two MUST agree.
