Cartesi Machine Emulator

The Cartesi Machine Emulator is the reference off-chain implementation of the Cartesi Machine Specification. It's written in C/C++ with POSIX dependencies restricted to the terminal, process, and memory-mapping facilities. It is distributed as a library and scriptable in the Lua programming language.

The emulator implements RISC-V's RV64IMASU ISA. The letters after RV specify the extension set. This selection corresponds to a 64-bit machine, Integer arithmetic with Multiplication and division, Atomic operations, as well as the optional Supervisor and User privilege levels. In addition, Cartesi Machines support the Sv48 mode of address translation and memory protection.

Configuring Lua 5.4

For emulator scripts to function properly, it is necessary for the lua5.4 binary to be available in the system PATH. If your operating system or package manager provides a Lua binary under a different name (e.g., lua instead of lua5.4, which is common on Homebrew), you will need to create a symbolic link or an alias named lua5.4. This can be done as follows:

ln -s $(which lua) /usr/local/bin/lua5.4  # Create a symbolic link (adjust as needed for your system)
# or
alias lua5.4='lua'  # Create an alias (add this line to your shell profile file like .bashrc or .zshrc)
Setting Up LuaRocks Modules

To use features that require LuaRocks modules, you must ensure your environment is configured to find these modules. Export the output of luarocks path --lua-version=5.4 to your environment by executing them or adding it to your .bashrc or .zshrc file. E.g.:

eval "$(luarocks path --lua-version=5.4)"

This command adjusts the environment variables for your shell sessions, ensuring LuaRocks-installed modules are correctly discovered by Lua scripts.

Build

git clone --recurse-submodules -j3 https://github.com/cartesi/machine-emulator.git
make

Cleaning:

make clean

Microarchitecture:

If you want to use a pre-built uarch RAM image instead of building one, use the variable UARCH_RAM_IMAGE to specify the path to the desired image file.

$ make UARCH_RAM_IMAGE=<path-to-your-uarch-ram.bin>

Install

sudo make install PREFIX=/usr/local

Build C libraries in standalone

Both libcartesi and libcartes_jsonrpc C libraries can be compiled in standalone, either as static or shared library:

make bundle-boost
make -C src libcartesi.a libcartesi_jsonrpc.a libcartesi.so libcartesi_jsonrpc.so

The .a and .so files will be available in src directory, you can use any of them to link your application.

You can even use other toolchains to cross compile targeting other platforms:

# Target WASM with Emscripten toolchain
make -C src \
  CC=emcc CXX=em++ AR="emar rcs" \
  libcartesi.a

# Target WASM with WASI SDK toolchain
make -C src \
  CC=/opt/wasi-sdk/bin/clang CXX=/opt/wasi-sdk/bin/clang++ AR="/opt/wasi-sdk/bin/llvm-ar rcs" \
  libcartesi.a

# Target Windows with mingw-w64 toolchain
make -C src \
  CC=x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc \
  CXX=x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ \
  AR="x86_64-w64-mingw32-ar rcs" \
  libcartesi.a

Running Tests

To build and execute the all tests run:

make build-tests-all
make test

To execute the machine test suite run:

make build-tests-machine-with-toolchain
make test-machine

To execute the uarch test suite run:

make build-tests-uarch-with-toolchain
make test-uarch

Linter

We use clang-tidy 15 as the linter.

Install

Debian Bookworm

You need to install the package clang-tidy-16 and set it as the default executable with update-alternatives.

apt install clang-tidy-16
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/clang-tidy clang-tidy /usr/bin/clang-tidy-16 120

Running Lint

make lint -j$(nproc)

Code format

We use clang-format to format the code base.

Install

Debian Bookworm

You need to install the package clang-format-16 and set is as the default executable with update-alternatives.

apt install clang-format-16
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/clang-format clang-format /usr/bin/clang-format-16 120

Formatting code

make format

Checking whether the code is formatted

make check-format

Coverage

Dependencies

Debian Bookworm

If you want to run the GCC-based coverage, you should install the lcov package with the following command.

sudo apt install lcov

If you want to run the clang-based coverage, you should install the clang package with the following command.

sudo apt install clang llvm

Compilation

Before running the coverage, you should build the emulator with the flag coverage-toolchain=gcc or coverage-toolchain=clang. Make sure you run make clean to clean up any previous compilation. For GCC-based coverage run the following command.

make coverage=yes COVERAGE_TOOLCHAIN=gcc -j$(nproc)
make build-tests-all coverage=yes COVERAGE_TOOLCHAIN=gcc -j$(nproc)

For clang-based coverage run the following command.

make coverage=yes COVERAGE_TOOLCHAIN=clang -j$(nproc)
make build-tests-all coverage=yes COVERAGE_TOOLCHAIN=clang -j$(nproc)

Running coverage

After building the emulator with coverage enable, you should run the following command. For instance:

make test coverage-report coverage=yes COVERAGE_TOOLCHAIN=gcc

This command will generate a coverage report in the src directory. For clang coverage, repeat the same command but with the flag coverage-toolchain=clang.
