can arria-10-gx run on aarch64 nvidia jetson?

[AVolo2]

we got this card

can it work on jetson board?

Thanks

It is listed in lspci outputs as

Hi,

It is not verified with NVIDIA Jestson as the driver is only verified in X86 Xeon CPU. It should be able to work but the concern will be on the driver side.

[AVolo2]

Hi @JohnT_Intel 

Thank you for following up

So how can I try to work with the unit from the unix shell?

[JohnT_Intel]

Hi,

You may try with the default driver to see if it is working or not. If it is not working then you might need to modify the driver where you can get the source code of the driver from https://opae.github.io/2.0.11/index.html.

[AVolo2]

@JohnT_Intel 

Thank you for your reply.

I will try https://opae.github.io/2.0.11/docs/install_guide/installation_guide.html#system-compatibility

But what exactly the way to try the default driver? What are the steps to do so ? Could you extend, please?

Hi,

You can download the installation for the acceleration stack from https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/collections/products/fpga/software/downloads.html?s=Newest&f:guidetm5E778C79B03E44E9B8E4DD2A75C6DEE3=%5BIntel%C2%AE%20Acceleration%20Stack%20for%20Intel%C2%AE%20PAC%20with%20Arria%2010%20GX%5D.

You may refer to the quick start guide in https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683633/1-2-1/about-this-document.html

[AVolo2]

this one during the installation script running would say that it requires x86_64 processor instruction set

The other one which is the method for building from sources, used with ubuntu

which kernel modules need to be built for ubuntu?

could you extend, please? Just building the opae-sdk won't work, will it without modules customly added? 

for fedora I can see these steps listed

$ cat configs/n3000_d5005_defconfig >> .config 
$ echo 'CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-dfl"' >> .config
$ echo 'CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y' >> .config

trying also to build the package [ failed]

~/opae-sdk/packaging/opae/deb$ ./create ubuntu

trying to build without packaging

I was able to build https://github.com/OPAE

How to try the board with it on my aarch64 \\jetson board?

Thanks

[AVolo2]

does installing the thing below include installtion of the driver/ examples? Or it still require to install separately manually opae-sdk / & linux-dfl driver?

. Installing the Intel Acceleration Stack

[AVolo2]

how to build this?

https://github.com/OPAE/linux-dfl

[JohnT_Intel]

Hi,

You may follow the guide in https://opae.github.io/2.0.11/docs/install_guide/installation_guide.html.

[AVolo2]

@JohnT_Intel 

I have got opae-sdk implemented already.

However, how to install linux-dfl? without the latter the prior won't work, will it?

how to install linux-dfl specifically on aarch64 nvidia jetson device ?

[AVolo2]

once the dev package

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/collections/products/fpga/software/downloads.html?s=Newest&f:guidetm5E778C79B03E44E9B8E4DD2A75C6DEE3=%5BIntel%C2%AE%20Acceleration%20Stack%20for%20Intel%C2%AE%20PAC%20with%20Arria%2010%20GX%5D

got installed to Xeon computer [ x86_64]

is there a simple example to test the card to confirm it works? 

any hello world example?

[AVolo2]

so fo x86_64

for xeon

afte rinstalling the stack dev package

it won't be able to run hello world example until after opae-sdk & linux-dfl got installed?

could you clarify, please?

[AVolo2]

to build these guys?

usr/src/opae/samples$ ls
hello_events.c hello_fpga.c

[AVolo2]

seems the process is https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683633/1-2-1/running-the-hello-fpga-example.html

Hi,

Can you try " lspci -s 07:00.0 -vv" where it will show if the driver is bind or not?
