IP block eror

Hello!  

 

I am trying to compile an OpenCL kernel called SimpleKernel.cl. Emulation and profiling work fine. I am stuck with the final aoc execution command. I have tried setting -board=a10gx and -board=a10gx_hostch (only two options) and always end up with the following error: 

 

aoc SimpleKernel.cl -v -board=a10gx_hostch 

aoc: Environment checks are completed successfully. 

aoc: If necessary for the compile, your BAK files will be cached here: /var/tmp/aocl/ 

You are now compiling the full flow!! 

aoc: Selected target board a10gx_hostch 

aoc: Running OpenCL parser.... 

aoc: OpenCL parser completed successfully. 

aoc: Optimizing and doing static analysis of code... 

aoc: Linking with IP library ... 

Checking if memory usage is larger than 100% 

aoc: First stage compilation completed successfully. 

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

Error (18185): Your design contains IP components that must be regenerated. To regenerate your IP, use the Upgrade IP Components dialog box, available on the Project menu in the Quartus Prime software 

Error: Flow failed: ERROR: Current design not found 

Error: Quartus Prime Synthesis was unsuccessful. 4 errors, 0 warnings 

Error (23031): Evaluation of Tcl script import_compile.tcl unsuccessful 

Error: Quartus Prime Compiler Database Interface was unsuccessful. 1 error, 0 warnings 

Error: Compiler Error, not able to generate hardware 

 

 

I have already tried upgrading the IP blocks in Quartus Prime. Though the message log indicates that this was successful, I try running aoc again and end up with the same error. Then when I go back to Quartus, it states that I need to update the IP blocks again. All of the environmental variables are set exactly as outlined in the SDK manual, and the version (17.1.0 build 240) is consistent.  

 

Any suggestions on what to try next would be appreciated.

Please attach the "quartus_sh_compile.log" file and also the output of "aoc --version" and "quartus_map --version".

Update AOC to v17.1.2 and try again. If compilation still failed, post your "quartus_sh_compile" file again.

How do I update AOC? Is there a specific file I need to download?

Adjust your operating system and check the "Updates" tab:

Download and install "intel fpga sdk for opencl pro edition v17.1 update 2".

It worked! On an off note, do you know if there are any OpenCV libraries that are supported for the Arria 10 board?

I found this [abandoned] repository with some googling:
