Introduction

Lattice diamond is the software used to synthesize bitstream for Lattice FPGAs. It's required for the MachXO[1,2,3] FPGA.

Installation guide

Download

Download the rpm file on Lattice website [1].

Install on debian 64bits

First alien is needed to convert the rpm in debian package :

sudo apt-get install alien

Convert it to deb package then install it (take a long time ~13 min):

$ sudo alien diamond_3_10-base_x64-111-2-x86_64-linux.rpm
Warning: Skipping conversion of scripts in package diamond_3_10-base_x64: postinst postrm preinst prerm
Warning: Use the --scripts parameter to include the scripts.
diamond-3-10-base-x64_3.10-112_amd64.deb generate

Then install it

$ sudo dpkg -i diamond-3-10-base-x64_3.10-112_amd64.deb 
Selecting previously unselected package diamond-3-10-base-x64.
(Reading database ... 336262 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack diamond-3-10-base-x64_3.10-112_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking diamond-3-10-base-x64 (3.10-112) ...
Setting up diamond-3-10-base-x64 (3.10-112) ...

The package is not correctly installed in directory /usr/local/diamond/. All tar.gz must be deflated :

cd /usr/local/diamond/3.10_x64/
cd bin/; sudo tar -zxvf bin.tar.gz;sudo rm bin.tar.gz; cd ..
cd synpbase/;sudo tar -zxvf synpbase.tar.gz;sudo rm synpbase.tar.gz; cd ..
cd examples/;sudo tar -zxvf examples.tar.gz;sudo rm examples.tar.gz; cd ..
cd data/;sudo tar -zxvf data.tar.gz; sudo rm data.tar.gz; cd ..
cd cae_library/;sudo tar -zxvf cae_library.tar.gz; sudo rm cae_library.tar.gz; cd ..
cd ispfpga/;sudo tar -zxvf ispfpga.tar.gz;sudo rm ispfpga.tar.gz; cd ..
cd tcltk/;sudo tar -zxvf tcltk.tar.gz; sudo rm tcltk.tar.gz; cd ..
cd embedded_source/;sudo tar -zxvf embedded_source.tar.gz; sudo rm embedded_source.tar.gz; cd ..

Install libpng correctly:

cd /usr/local/diamond/3.10_x64/bin/lin64
sudo mv libpng12.so.0 libpng12.so.0.old
sudo ln /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so.0 -s libpng12.so.0

save the license.dat received by mail in following directory:

/usr/local/diamond/3.10_x64/license/

Add this lines in your ~/.bashrc:

#Lattice Diamond
export PATH=$PATH:"/usr/local/diamond/3.10_x64/bin/lin64"

open a new terminal (or re-source your .bashrc) then launch diamond:

diamond

USB rights

Warning: This is a hack to make usb-jtag working with diamond software. Be aware what you are doing, it can break some functionalities on your system

Launching diamond can raise this error :

$ libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/003/007: Permission denied.
libusb requires write access to USB device nodes.
Erreur de segmentation

To avoid it, just add udev rules in etc config :

$ sudo vim /etc/udev/rules.d/10-lattice.rules

And add this line :

ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6010", MODE="0666", SYMLINK+="ftdi-%n", RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'basename $(dirname $(realpath /sys%p/device)) > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/ftdi_sio/unbind'",RUN+="/root/ftdi_fixer.py"

create a python script in /root/ftdi_fixer.py

$ sudo vim /root/ftdi_fixer.py

And write the following sources.

then give the rights :

sudo chmod +x /root/ftdi_fixer.py

Then re-launch udev with :

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules

See the explanation here.

Service Packs SP1 and SP2

Download sp2
Convert rpm do deb (~5min):

$ sudo alien diamond_3_10-sp2_x64-115-1-x86_64-linux.rpm 
Warning: Skipping conversion of scripts in package diamond_3_10-sp2_x64: postinst postrm preinst prerm

Install on Gentoo 64bits

Install rpm

emerge -av rpm

Install diamon

export RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/
rpm -Uvh --nodeps diamond_3_7-base_x64-96-1-x86_64-linux.rpm

save the license.dat received by mail in following directory:

/usr/local/diamond/3.7_x64/license/

Add this lines in your ~/.bashrc:

#Lattice Diamond
export PATH=$PATH:"/usr/local/diamond/3.7_x64/bin/lin64"

open a new terminal (or re-source your .bashrc) then launch diamond:
