A collection of notes to explain some of the design decisions to potential developers and advanced users
The peakrdl-python RAL was designed to have very limited dependencies on other packages once deployed, this includes the peakrdl-python packages itself, so the library classes are copied into the generated package.
It does need a few packages inorder to build it:
- systemrdl-compiler
- jinja2
All the APIs present memory, register and field entries as python integers. This abstracts, the complexity of byte ordering and reversed registers.
