Hello, this is Week 1 and Week 2 report for my GSoC 2021 project Improvements to simpPRU, my mentors are Kumar Abhishek, Pratim Ugale and Andrew Henderson. I will report my weekly progress through this thread from now on.
I also have a GitHub page for tracking my progress: Archisman’s GSoC 2021 Blog
Accomplishments:
- set up PocketBeagle, BeagleBone Blue and AI - installed Debian, upgraded kernel and scripts, built simpPRU from source
- read PRU Cookbook
- added JSON file for BeagleBone Blue pinouts
- read about testing using CMake, decided to write tests using stubs and mocks for the most part and write some end to end tests for the PRU IO functions later
- Completed Introductory YouTube video
- added a -c flag to simpPRU that stops after generating C code and does not call pru-gcc
- added a -t flag to simpPRU that makes it emit C code with stub functions instead of the PRU IO functions
- added print() and println() functions in simpPRU that can print strings and int/bool identifiers.
- added some tests to check C code generation by compiling the generated C code with stub functions with gcc and comparing output with expected output
- added a Python script to automate the above
Resolution to Blockers:
N/A
On-going blockers:
No real blockers, but tests indicate there are bugs in the parser for for-loop and boolean expressions that I have not fixed yet.
Plans for next week:
- fix for-loop and boolean expressions
- add support for modulo and bitshift operators
- modify the parser so that control statements (break, continue) can only be called inside loops.

Accomplishments:
- added support for modulo operators in arithmetic expressions
- added support for hexadecimal and octal integers
- made bitwise operators (and, or, not) work in arithmetic expressions instead of boolean expressions
- added left and right bitshift operators for arithmetic expressions
- modified the lexer so that control statements (break, continue) can only be called inside loops.
Resolution to Blockers:
- Vedant Paranjape fixed the bug with the for loop which was preventing the loop variable to be used inside the loop

Accomplishments:
- wrote documentation for things done till now

No real blockers this week, I got fever after getting the vaccine and missed two days, will complete adding support for char this week.
Plans for next week:
- finish adding support for char data type
- finalize everything before first evaluations
- start adding support for static arrays
