OneAPI for Agilex 7 I-Series Dev Kit: build-default-binaries.sh fails

[gustifix2]

Hello!

I am following https://ofs.github.io/ofs-2024.2-1/hw/common/user_guides/oneapi_asp/ug_oneapi_asp/ to set up OneAPI for the Agilex 7 I-Series Development Kit (2x R-Tile, 1x F-Tile).

At step 2.5.1 Compile Initialization Bitstreams the command

./build-default-binaries.sh -b ofs_iseries-dk

 failed with the output in the attached file.

Regarding the Verilog error, I found this https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/programmable/quartushelp/22.1/index.htm#msgs/msgs/evrfx2_veri_opposite_direction.htm. Is there actually an error in ofs_plat_prim_burstcount1_mapping_gearbox.sv or am I doing something wrong?

All tools should be the versions mentioned in the OneAPI ASP Getting Started Guide but the host OS is Ubuntu 24.04.

I would appreciate some help. Thanks!

Hi @gustifix2,

Appreciate the patients, after some discussion and alignment it seems that the oneAPI OFS design example required specific RAM configuration which is 2x8GB, hence after some OFS configuration setup with the right RAM configuration setting, the oneAPI kernel compilation would be successfully.

Hope that clarify, please do let us know if there is further doubts.

Hi @BoonBengT_Intel ,

Could you point me to some documentation for what exactly should be changed? I assume I have to change the memory configuration of the FIM, similar to 4.7 Modify the Memory Sub-system. I tried removing the 2 DDR4 interfaces with location "North I/O Row" in the picture below:

I assume the "North I/O Row" is connected to the two DIMM slots and "South I/O Row" to the 2x8GB soldered to the board based on this picture:

However, with just two "south" interfaces and after removing unused signals in the "Interface Requirements" window, I get a compilation error in build_top.sh script about the fitter not being able to place pins. It looks like I also have to adjust the pin constraints and remove the now unused pins. However, I'm not sure if this is even the right approach to change the RAM configuration to 2x8GB, so I wanted to ask here again first.

Also, I will be on vacation for two weeks and continue to work on this afterwards.

Thanks and best wishes!

Hi @gustifix2,

Thank you for waiting and the patients.

After discussing this internally with our IP team, since the error are mentioning the fitter problem and we have unused pin. Hence we should remove them with the correct pin constraint.

It should work per the example design which requires 2x8gb external memory.

Hope that clarify.

Best Wishes
