Hello world program hangs :(

[Altera_Forum]

I have generated the binary file of the hello world program. I have used the host program to launch it. However, it never completes. It gets stuck at the line  

status = clFinish(queue);  Here is my output of the program.   manoj@EV-PHD-ROS-PC:~/Documents/exm_opencl_hello_world_x64_linux/hello_world/bin$ ./host  Querying platform for info: ========================== CL_PLATFORM_NAME = Intel(R) FPGA SDK for OpenCL(TM) CL_PLATFORM_VENDOR = Intel(R) Corporation CL_PLATFORM_VERSION = OpenCL 1.0 Intel(R) FPGA SDK for OpenCL(TM), Version 17.1.2  Querying device for info: ======================== CL_DEVICE_NAME = a10gx : Arria 10 Reference Platform (acla10_ref0) CL_DEVICE_VENDOR = Intel(R) Corporation CL_DEVICE_VENDOR_ID = 4466 CL_DEVICE_VERSION = OpenCL 1.0 Intel(R) FPGA SDK for OpenCL(TM), Version 17.1.2 CL_DRIVER_VERSION = 17.1 CL_DEVICE_ADDRESS_BITS = 64 CL_DEVICE_AVAILABLE = true CL_DEVICE_ENDIAN_LITTLE = true CL_DEVICE_GLOBAL_MEM_CACHE_SIZE = 32768 CL_DEVICE_GLOBAL_MEM_CACHELINE_SIZE = 0 CL_DEVICE_GLOBAL_MEM_SIZE = 2147483648 CL_DEVICE_IMAGE_SUPPORT = true CL_DEVICE_LOCAL_MEM_SIZE = 16384 CL_DEVICE_MAX_CLOCK_FREQUENCY = 1000 CL_DEVICE_MAX_COMPUTE_UNITS = 1 CL_DEVICE_MAX_CONSTANT_ARGS = 8 CL_DEVICE_MAX_CONSTANT_BUFFER_SIZE = 536870912 CL_DEVICE_MAX_WORK_ITEM_DIMENSIONS = 3 CL_DEVICE_MEM_BASE_ADDR_ALIGN = 8192 CL_DEVICE_MIN_DATA_TYPE_ALIGN_SIZE = 1024 CL_DEVICE_PREFERRED_VECTOR_WIDTH_CHAR = 4 CL_DEVICE_PREFERRED_VECTOR_WIDTH_SHORT = 2 CL_DEVICE_PREFERRED_VECTOR_WIDTH_INT = 1 CL_DEVICE_PREFERRED_VECTOR_WIDTH_LONG = 1 CL_DEVICE_PREFERRED_VECTOR_WIDTH_FLOAT = 1 CL_DEVICE_PREFERRED_VECTOR_WIDTH_DOUBLE = 0 Command queue out of order? = false Command queue profiling enabled? = true Using AOCX: hello_world.aocx Reprogramming device [0] with handle 1 MMD INFO : Autodetect Cable not found!! MMD INFO : setting Cable to default value 1 MMD INFO : setting Device Index to default value 1 MMD INFO : executing "quartus_pgm -c 1 -m jtag -o "P;reprogram_temp.sof@1"" Info: ******************************************************************* Info: Running Quartus Prime Programmer  Info: Version 17.1.2 Build 304 01/31/2018 SJ Pro Edition  Info: Copyright (C) 2018 Intel Corporation.

Am I doing something wrong. Is this because of PCIe connection? I have checked lspci | grep Altera and everything seems to be alright!   lspci | grep Altera 03:00.0 Processing accelerators: Altera Corporation Device 2494 (rev 01)    Regards, Manoj.
