For 2025-10, focused contributions in chipsalliance/t1 centered on expanding test coverage for RISC-V vector features and enhancing log diagnostics to improve reliability and observability. Key work spans two primary areas: 1) RISC-V Vector Test Suite Integration and Maintenance: integrated riscv-vector-tests into the pokedex test suite, updated build targets/flags, wired in the riscv-vector-tests dependency, and added case_list.txt for generated tests. Additionally, pruned unimplemented vector tests from case_list.txt to streamline the suite and reduce noise in CI feedback. 2) Spike Log Parsing Enhancements and Cleanup: renamed SpikeLog to SpikeLogs and SpikeLogSyntax to SpikeInsnCommit for clarity, and added a new Spike vector parsing module to capture vector register writes and state changes, enabling more precise diagnostics. Overall, these changes improve test coverage and stability for vector workloads, reduce maintainability burden by clarifying log terminology, and enhance observability across the test and run-time pipeline.

Summary for 2025-09: Delivered floating-point support in the Pokedex/ASL simulator by integrating Softfloat, adding FP architectural state (FPR, FCSR), and enabling rv_f and rv_c_f extensions; updated decoding/build and enabled FP testing with differential FP register checks. Implemented a metadata fix for rv32_c_f. Updated RISC-V vector tests dependency to a newer revision and removed a patch that disabled the VLEN check to restore proper vector-length enforcement. These changes improve FP accuracy, expand test coverage, and enhance simulation reliability and business value.

October 2024: Focused on strengthening testing, stability, and dependency hygiene for chipsalliance/t1. Implemented data-driven RTL testing with dynamic CI test plan generation and TOML-based config parsing; CI test-emit now consumes generated configurations for improved coverage and accuracy. Hardened Nix environments by validating critical variables (e.g., VC_STATIC_HOME and SNPSLMD_LICENSE_FILE) and removing impure lookups to reduce build failures and improve failure messaging. Upgraded the Chisel dependency in Nix to a newer revision with an updated SHA256, enabling bug fixes and feature improvements.
