Hello,
we have succesfully compiled Linux root, kernel, uboot and preloader (for our custom board) according to the instructions here:
https://rocketboards.org/foswiki/Documentation/EmbeddedLinuxBeginnerSGuide#
It works, but there is a question about preparing appropriate board.xml file for the device tree. We have configured it according to the instructions here:
https://rocketboards.org/foswiki/Documentation/DeviceTreeGenerator140
but we can't find information about defining the XML description for the VGA and AUDIO IP cores from the Intel library. This generates following sopc2dts errors:
Component audio_0 of class altera_up_avalon_audio is unknown
Component pll_video of class altera_pll is unknown
Component video_pixel_buffer_dma_0 of class altera_up_avalon_video_pixel_buffer_dma is unknown
Component video_rgb_resampler_0 of class altera_up_avalon_video_rgb_resampler is unknown
Component video_vga_controller_0 of class altera_up_avalon_video_vga_controller is unknown
How to define these components in the board.xml?
Are there any examples how to use these components in the Linux?
Regards
K

Thank you for the answer. At the moment we did some other work on this board and left VGA/AUDIO subject open for a while. If there will be no examples, etc., we will just connect the Linux framebuffer to a custom core, as other custom functions. But this will take some time, so if you can assist us with some examples it would be helpful.
Regards,
K

I see this error has been resolved before. This doesn't require workaround necessarily. You can safely disregard the warning messages and proceed to compile your device tree sources normally.
See this KDB:
