+= Verilator Build Environment
+
+This container is set up to compile and test a Verilator build based
+on the following parameters:
+
+* Source repository (default: https://github.com/verilator/verilator)
+* Source revision (default: master)
+* GCC version (4.8.5, 5.5.0, 6.5.0, 7.4.0, default: 7.4.0)
+
+The container is published as `verilator/verilator-buildenv` on
+https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/verilator/verilator-buildenv[docker hub].
+
+To run the basic build of current master:
+
+    docker run -ti verilator/verilator-buildenv
+
+To also run tests:
+
+    docker run -ti verilator/verilator-buildenv test
+
+Change the compiler:
+
+    docker run -ti -e CC=gcc-4.8 -e CXX=g++-4.8 verilator/verilator-buildenv test
+
+The tests that involve gdb are not working due to security restrictions.
+To run those too:
+
+....
+docker run -ti -v ${PWD}:/tmp/repo -e REPO=/tmp/repo -e REV=`git rev-parse --short HEAD` -e CC=gcc-4.8 -e CXX=g++-4.8 --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE --security-opt seccomp=unconfined verilator/verilator-buildenv test
+....
+
+You may want to avoid pushing your changes to a remote repository and
+instead use a local working copy. You can mount the local working copy
+path as a volume and use this as repo. Be careful, that it can only
+use committed changes, so you may want to use a work-in-progress
+commit or so. To build the current HEAD from top of a repository:
+
+....
+docker run -ti -v ${PWD}:/tmp/repo -e REPO=/tmp/repo -e REV=`git rev-parse --short HEAD` --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE --security-opt seccomp=unconfined verilator/verilator-buildenv test
+....
+
+== Under the Hood
+
+To rebuild the image, simply run:
+
+    docker build .
+
+It will build SystemC in all supported compiler variants to reduce the
+impact on testing cycles. A build script will be the entrypoint to the
+container that will perform a standard build and test procedure.

+= Docker Container as Verilator executable
+
+This allows you to run Verilator easily as a docker image, e.g.:
+
+    docker run -ti verilator/verilator:latest --version
+
+This is in particular useful to compare against older version or to
+check when an issue was introduced.
+
+You will need to give it access to your files as a volume and fix the
+user rights:
+
+....
+docker run -ti -v ${PWD}:/work --user $(id -u):$(id -g) verilator/verilator:latest --cc test.v
+....
+
+The caveat is that it can only access files below the current
+directory then, a workaround is to adopt the volume and set
+`-workdir`.
+
+There is a convenience script in this folder that wraps around the
+docker calls:
+
+    $ verilator-docker 3.922 --version
+    Verilator 3.922 2018-03-17 rev UNKNOWN_REV
+
+Finally, you can also work in the container by setting the entrypoint
+(don't forget to mount a volume if you want your work persistent):
+
+    docker run -ti --entrypoint /bin/bash verilator/verilator:latest
+
+The other files in this folder all for building the containers and to
+store in them. You could use it to build Verilator at a specific
+commit:
+
+    docker build --build-arg SOURCE_COMMIT=<commit> .
+
+== Internals
+
+The Dockerfile is pretty straight-forward, it builds Verilator and
+removes the tree after that to reduce the image size. It sets a
+wrapper script (`verilator-wrap.sh`) as entrypoint. This script calls
+Verilator but also copies the verilated runtime files to the `obj_dir`
+or the `-Mdir` respectively. This allows the user to build the C++
+output with the matching runtime files. The wrapper patches the
+generated Makefile accordingly.
+
+There is also a hook defined that is run by docker hub via automated
+builds.
