Hi, all
I installed acceleration stack, followed guide to install bsp and setup environment variables.
"aocl diagnose" detects device well, and pre-compiled aocx examples run well.
But when I try to compile some OpenCL kernel examples, it prints the following error:
[heehoon@localhost vector_add]$ aoc device/vector_add.cl -o bin/vector_add.aocx --board pac_a10
Warning: Command has been deprecated. Please use -board=<value> instead of --board <value>

Compiling for FPGA. This process may take a long time, please be patient.

Do somebody know why this error happens?
Thanks in advance.

Hello ,
Please find the below guidelines to compile your kernel which can be helpful for you :-
There is problem with hierarchy, check your design to make sure every sub-module is instantiated correctly.
Thanks

But what I compiled is just OpenCL kernel:
__kernel void vector_add(__global const float *x,
__global const float *y,
__global float *restrict z)
{
// get index of the work item
int index = get_global_id(0);
// add the vector elements
z[index] = x[index] + y[index];
}
So there is no RTL design

Your problem is likely due to a version mismatch between your BSP and the OpenCL compiler you are using, rather than the OpenCL kernel itself. Can you post the version of BSP, quartus and aoc you are using and also attach the quartus_sh_compile.log file generated during your failed compilation?

I found the problem. I need to set env variable ALTERAOCLSDKROOT.
export ALTERAOCLSDKROOT=$INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT
since init_env.sh and init_opencl.sh do not set it, you should do it by yourself.
