Jade Firmware
NOTE: the below instructions are for Jade developers with access to Jade development boards or for those wanting to build and flash their own esp32 consumer devices - eg. M5Stack or TTGO T-Display boards. They are not for updating the firmware of an official Blockstream Jade hw unit - these can only be updated in-app, or using the 'update_jade_fw.py' script - see FWUPDATE.md
- DO NOT ATTEMPT THE BELOW WITH BLOCKSTREAM OFFICIAL BLOCKSTREAM JADE HW UNITS
To build you can use the docker image (see Dockerfile) or install the esp-idf toolchain and repo following the commands in this readme.
DIY Hardware & Programming Notes
For information about suitable DIY hardware, as well as suggested configuration profiles and notes on secure boot. DIY Guide
Use docker
Note the supplied docker-compose.yml assumes the Jade device is at dev/ttyUSB0.
Note the below instructions assume an original Jade v1.0 hardware with a true wheel. When using the later Jade v1.1 hw revision with a rocker/jog-wheel, use 'configs/sdkconfig_jade_v1_1.defaults' in place of 'configs/sdkconfig_jade.defaults'.
(local)$ docker-compose up -d
(local)$ docker-compose exec dev bash
(docker)$ cp configs/sdkconfig_jade.defaults sdkconfig.defaults
(docker)$ idf.py flash
The docker-compose.yml also mounts the local git repo so that it is the origin of the repo in the docker.
Set up the environment
Jade requires the esp-idf sdk.
More information is available in the Espressif official guide.
Get the esp-idf sdk and required tools:
cd ~/esp
git clone -b v5.0.2 --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git
cd ~/esp/esp-idf && git checkout 5181de8ac5ec5e18f04f634da8ce173b7ef5ab73 && ./install.sh esp32
Set up the environmental variables:
. $HOME/esp/esp-idf/export.sh
Build the firmware
git clone --recursive https://github.com/Blockstream/Jade.git $HOME/jade
cd $HOME/jade
cp configs/sdkconfig_jade.defaults sdkconfig.defaults
idf.py flash monitor
_Some hardware configurations (eg: M5StickC-Plus) may not support the default baud rate and won't be detected, so you can force a specific baud rate for flash/monitor by using the -b argument.
For example, the last line of the above code block would change be:
idf.py -b 115200 flash monitor
Build configurations
There are various build configurations used by the CI in the configs/ directory, which may be required for specific builds eg. without BLE radio, with the screen enabled (or disabled, as with the CI tests), or for specific hardware (eg. the m5-fire).
The menuconfig tool can also be used to adjust the build settings.
idf.py menuconfig
Note: for any but the simplest CI-like build with no GUI, no camera, no user-interaction etc. it is recommended that PSRAM is available and enabled. ( Component Config -> ESP-32 specific -> Support external SPI connected RAM )
Run the tests
cd $HOME/jade
virtualenv -p python3 venv3
source venv3/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python test_jade.py
deactivate
Emulator/Virtualizer (qemu in Docker)
Run these commands inside the jade source repo root directory, it will enter a docker container
DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build . -t testjadeqemu
docker run -v ${PWD}:/jade -p 30121:30121 -it testjadeqemu bash
Note: You can skip the build step if you want by fetching the prebuilt image and running with
docker pull blockstream/verde
docker run -v ${PWD}:/jade -p 30121:30121 -it blockstream/verde bash
Now inside the container
. /root/esp/esp-idf/export.sh
cd /jade
rm -fr sdkconfig
cp configs/sdkconfig_qemu.defaults sdkconfig.defaults
idf.py all
apt-get update -qq && apt-get install virtualenv -yqq
virtualenv -p python3 ./venv3
source ./venv3/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
./tools/fwprep.py build/jade.bin build
./main/qemu/make-flash-img.sh
# To run the CI tests
./main/qemu/qemu_ci_flash.sh
# To reboot the qemu instance
./main/qemu/qemu_reboot.sh
# To reboot the qemu instance and attach gdb to the Jade fw
./main/qemu/qemu_gdb.sh
At this point the Jade fw running in the qemu emulator should be available on 'tcp:localhost:30121' from inside and outside the docker container.
