# Foboot: The Bootloader for Fomu
Foboot is a failsafe bootloader for Fomu. It exposes a DFU interface to the host. Foboot comes in two halves: A Software half and a Hardware half.
## Building the Hardware
The hardware half is written in LiteX, and uses `lxbuildenv` to handle Python dependencies. Hardware is contained within the `hw/` directory. You must install software dependencies yourself:
* Python 3.5+
* Nextpnr
* Icestorm
* Yosys
* Git
Subproject dependencies will be taken care of with `lxbuildenv`.
### Usage
To build, run `foboot-bitstream.py`:
`python3 .\foboot-bitstream.py`
There are multiple build options available. Use `--help` to list them.
Build files will be generated in the `build/` directory. You will probably be most interested in `build/gateware/top.bin` and `build/software/include/generated/`.
## Tests
You can run tests by using the `unittest` command:
`python .\lxbuildenv.py -r -m unittest -v valentyusb.usbcore.cpu.epfifo_test.TestPerEndpointFifoInterface`
## Building the Software
Software is contained in the `sw/` directory.

# Foboot Firmware Component
## Usage
To build:
`python3 .\foboot-bitstream.py`
This will ensure you have the required dependencies, and check out all submodules.
## Tests
You can run tests by using the `unittest` command:
`python .\lxbuildenv.py -r -m unittest -v valentyusb.usbcore.cpu.epfifo_test.TestPerEndpointFifoInterface`
