I found an issue gd32vf103.h header cannot be used from C++ module · Issue #1 · riscv-mcu/GD32VF103_Firmware_Library · GitHub is still relevant with framework-gd32vf103-sdk.

Steps to repeat:

git clone https://github.com/MuellerA/LonganNanoTest
cd LonganNanoTest/Usart
pio run

Output:

Commenting out the line 179 in ~/.platformio/packages/framework-gd32vf103-sdk/GD32VF103_standard_peripheral/gd32vf103.h fixes the error.

I see no fixed issues in Issues · riscv-mcu/GD32VF103_Firmware_Library · GitHub since 2019.
I can’t find any popular fork to recommend to use it for framework-gd32vf103-sdk.

Questions:

  • Any idea how to fix the code for PlatformIO end user, so that no one should apply fix manually every time?
  • Can we apply patches for framework-gd32vf103-sdk?

How can I have these changes locally?
Should I ask the repository owners to create tags with versions?

You wouldn’t do it via pio pkg install, you would give your project a platform_packages line in which you point to the fixed SDK.

The package name for it is

So just fork the now main repo and add a package.json to it with

{
  "name": "framework-gd32vf103-sdk",
  "version": "1.0.1",
  "description": "GigaDevice GD32VF103 Firmware Library",
  "keywords": [
    "framework",
    "sdk",
    "risc-v",
    "gigadevice"
  ],
  "homepage": "https://www.riscv-mcu.com/",
  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "https://github.com/riscv-mcu/GD32VF103_Firmware_Library"
  }
}

Then say

platform_packages =
  framework-gd32vf103-sdk@<Git link for your fork>

in the platformio.ini.
