• Since I have no idea how to use opam, but I do not the older Coq setup via makefiles, that's what I'll be using.

• In general, it's a welcome, pleasant surprise that everything works on tip-of-tree.
• We first build bbv, which is a library for bitvector theory. We then build coq-sail. Finally, we build sail.
• Yes, we need two copies of bbv. coq-sail uses the bbv from:

root/sail-src/coq-sail$ ../../bbv` -> root/bbv

• sail itself, in its test suite, uses the bbv from:

root/sail/test/coq$ ../../../bbv -> root/sail-src/bbv/

§ Grabbing the right ocaml

§ Building bbv

root$ cd bbv && make -j$(nproc) && make install

§ Building bbv

§ What's needed to port to Lean

There's quite a bit of obsolete stuff in the Coq backend at the moment that you could safely skip. sail coq backend by default generates a shallow embedding. It's probably worth looking at katamaran, though. I don't think a deep embedding is too hard, it's partly just a case of deciding what the output language should look like.
