Local OneAPI FPGA synthesis with Altera Cyclone 5

Penteado__Mauricio · ‎08-27-2020

Hello, I am trying to run FPGA hardware synthesis locally on my own device but i ran into problem

I get error message while trying to build Simple_Add with hw option :

Error: Internal Compiler Error. BSP specified project name dcp, but dcp.qpf does not exist.

I am wondering if i should create such file or it is caused by wrong versions of software.
I am using Quartus Pro 19.3 and Intel OneApi release 2021.1-beta07.

My card is a DE10-Standard with Cyclone V. I am using the BSP provided by terasic.

Please, let me know if anyone can help me.

The command to list my boards works as expected:

eclipse-workspace/Simple_Add# aoc -list-board-packages
Installed board packages:
  No board support package installed.
Board packages shipped with Intel(R) FPGA SDK for OpenCL(TM):
  de10_standard: /opt/intel/inteloneapi/intelfpgadpcpp/2021.1-beta07/board/de10_standard
Board packages shipped with Intel(R) FPGA SDK for OpenCL(TM): (for report generation/emulation/runtime use only) :

  intel_a10gx_pac: /opt/intel/inteloneapi/compiler/2021.1-beta06/linux/lib/oclfpga/board/intel_a10gx_pac (default)

I tried to pass ¨-Xsboard=de10_standard¨ on my Makefile, but it did not work:

eclipse-workspace/Simple_Add# make hw -f Makefile.fpga

If I send ¨-Xsboard=de10_standard_sharedonly¨ via Makefile, the response is a little better:

eclipse-workspace/Simple_Add# make hw -f Makefile.fpga
dpcpp -O2 -g -std=c++17 -v -fintelfpga a_buffers.o -o simple-add-buffers.fpga -Xshardware -Xsboard=de10_standard_sharedonly

The question now is: How can I install OneApi with Quartus Prime Standard instead of Pro ?

Hi ,

As of now OneAPI addon is supported in Quartus Pro only.

Thanks and Regards
