公众号文章《业界第一个真正意义上开源100 Gbps NIC Corundum介绍》和《揭秘：普通电脑换上Xilinx Alveo U50 100G网卡传文件会有多快？》发出后，得到了很多粉丝的关注，大家纷纷留言询问重现开源工程的详细过程。团队李钊同学详细写了一下具体的实现步骤，具体如下。

目标：在Linux环境下，基于VCU118板卡恢复出100G corundum NIC。

一、Corundum简介

GitHub repository: https://github.com/corundum/corundum

GitHub wiki: https://github.com/corundum/corundum/wiki

　　Corundum是一个基于FPGA的开源原型平台，用于高达100Gbps及更高的网络接口开发。Corundum平台包括一些用于实现实时，高线速操作的核心功能，包括：高性能数据路径，10G/ 25G / 100G以太网MAC，PCIExpress第3代，自定义PCIeDMA引擎以及本机高精确的IEEE 1588 PTP时间戳。一个关键功能是可扩展队列管理，它可以支持超过10,000个队列以及可扩展的传输调度程序，从而可以对包传输进行细粒度的硬件控制。结合多个网络接口，每个接口多个端口以及每个端口事件驱动的传输调度，这些功能可实现高级网络接口，体系结构和协议的开发。这些硬件功能的软件接口是Linux网络协议栈的高性能驱动程序。该平台还支持分散/聚集DMA，校验和卸载，接收流散列和接收端缩放。一个全面的，基于Python的开放源代码仿真框架促进了开发和调试，该框架包括整个系统，从驱动程序和PCIExpress接口的仿真模型到以太网接口。通过实现微秒级时分多址（TDMA）硬件调度程序，以100Gbps的线速执行TDMA调度，而没有CPU开销，证明了Corundum的强大功能和灵活性。

二、环境准备

2.1：Linux系统

　　本机为win10专业版，由于环境需要

在VMware虚拟机安装Ubuntu 20.04 LTS系统供日常学习测试使用
- 安装python库
- 使用tox尝试仿真
安装双系统Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- 在Ubuntu系统上安装vivado 2019.2
- 注意vivado 2019.2的license，基本组件的license会编译出错，需要添加IP license。

2.2：Obtaining the source code

直接从git地址下载zip压缩包使用；
$ git clone https://github.com/corundum/corundum.git

2.3：FPGA仿真环境搭建

2.3.1 system packages

Python3.9；当前ubuntu 20.04自带python3版本为python3.8，需要下载python3.9并配置系统python3为python3.9。其中遇到很多问题需要百度自行解决。。。

$ sudo apt-get install python3.9
$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.8 1

$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.9 2
$ sudo update-alternatives --config python3
There are 2 choices for the alternative python3 (providing /usr/bin/python3).
 
 Selection Path  Priority Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0  /usr/bin/python3.8 2  auto mode
 1  /usr/bin/python3.8 2  manual mode
 2  /usr/bin/python3.9 1  manual mode
 
Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 2

测试python版本：

$ python3 -V
Python 3.9

安装/升级pip

$ sudo apt-get install python3-pip
$ sudo pip3 install --upgrade pip

安装python-dev

$ sudo apt install python3-dev

安装Icarus Verilog

$ sudo apt-get install iverilog

安装GTKWave

$ sudo apt-get install gtkwave

2.3.2 required python packages

cocotb
cocotb-bus
cocotb-test
cocotbext-axi
cocotbext-eth
cocotbext-pcie
pytest
scapy
Recommended additional python packages:
- tox (to run pytest inside a python virtual environment)
- pytest-xdist (to run tests in parallel with pytest -n auto)
- pytest-sugar (makes pytest output a bit nicer)

$ pip3 install cocotb
$ pip3 install cocotb-bus
$ pip3 install cocotb-test
$ pip3 install cocotbext-axi
$ pip3 install cocotbext-eth
$ pip3 install cocotbext-pcie
$ pip3 install pytest
$ pip3 install scapy
$ pip3 install tox
$ pip3 install pytest-xdist
$ pip3 install pytest-sugar

注意：安装完package可能会报warning提示package不在PATH内

此时需要将package添加到系统PATH中

$ sudo gedit ~/.bashrc

在bashrc中添加

export PATH="$PATH:/home/yourname/.local/bin"

然后在终端source

$ sudo source ~/.bashrc

2.4 安装双系统Ubuntu 20.04

在win10下的机械盘上分了一块200G大小的空间用于安装新系统，事实证明200G有点小。

安装过程见：

https://www.jianshu.com/p/54d9a3a695cc https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/135953477 https://www.zhihu.com/question/34611974 注意分区时：/boot在UEFI上是非必要的，系统直接安在efi上即可。

将分区/：的空间设置足够大，这是总目录，以后安装的软件默认在此目录下，vivado2019占用90多G，因此此块空间或者/home的空间要足够大。

安装完系统配置环境，同时安装vivado2019.2，装在/opt/xilinx下即可。

三、Running test

单核的PC不建议（太慢了），建议上服务器跑。

确保Linux下所需要的package都安装完毕。

在corundum根目录下运行仿真。
