SoCEDS and ARM DS - SoCEDS and ARM DS Hi all, I'm newbie to the intel community. I have bought Intel Agilex-7 Fseries Dev-Kit SoC and I have a couple of questions. The first one is that is there any Arm-DS licence coming when bought the product? The second one is that can I use Intel SoCEDS Pro v20.1 to develop embedded applications on Agilex-7 F series Dev-Kit? It supports Agilex-7 devices? If so Is there any user guide for SoCEDS Pro I mean usage examples of APIs coming when install SoCEDS Pro? Thanks, Balerion Replies: Re: SoCEDS and ARM DS Hi, Thanks for your answers. I wish, there was a BSP support for Agilex-7 SoC just like Arria 10 and Stratix 10 such that I wouldn't need to work at the register level if I want to work baremetal with it. If this is all about the topic, you can make it closed for now. Regards, Balerion Replies: Re: SoCEDS and ARM DS Hi, SoCEDS is discontinued product and no longer supported. For updated support on HWLIB, please refer the below link- https://www.rocketboards.org/foswiki/Documentation/HWLib https://github.com/altera-opensource/intel-socfpga-hwlib This HWLIB is only having peripheral support on CV, Arria 10 and Stratix 10. Agilex-7 is not mentioned in these above links. We don't have any example or reference with HWLIB and the Agilex-7. If you still wish to work on baremetal then you need to create on your own. I can help you with the available support which is linux on Agilex-7. Hope this clarified your query, Regards Tiwari Replies: Re: SoCEDS and ARM DS Hi, I added some screenshots to the attachment. I took them from Intel's website and "Intel SoC FPGA Embedded Development Suite (Soc EDS) User Guide". As far as I understood, I can use SoC EDS on Agilex devices (I don't know if it is Agilex-7). I installed Intel Soc EDS Pro v20.1 and under ...\intelFpga_pro\embedded\ip\altera\hps\altera_hps\hwlib\include directory there are some header files. But from your response, I see that I am not able to use these header files in my application. Can you please explain them in detail. I want to use UART peripheral in my simple application. I also want to work baremetal. So, I need to write my driver using hps register map? Could you please help about that? Best Regards, Balerion Replies: Re: SoCEDS and ARM DS Hi, I believe your inquiry has been answered. With that, I now transition this thread to community support. Thank you. Best regards, Tiwari p/s: If any answer from the community or Intel Support are helpful, please feel free to give best answer or rate 4/5 survey. Replies: Re: SoCEDS and ARM DS Hi, Yes, you need to use the linux if you need any support from Aletra. Incase of baremetal, we do not have HWLIB/Baremetal support on Agilex-7. Means, you need to write from your own to build baremetal application. Please refer below link for update support for Altera HWLIB. https://github.com/altera-opensource/intel-socfpga-hwlib Do let me know if you have any other query on this. Regards Tiwari Replies: Re: SoCEDS and ARM DS Hi, I was looking at "Intel Agilex-7 FPGA F-Series Development Kit User Guide" and "Intel SoC FPGA Embedded Development Suite(SoC EDS) User Guide". In Revision History, it says "Added Intel Agilex Support" I am a bit confused about it. If I want to work bare metal with this device, I need to write all the hardware libraries on my own? Could you please help? Otherwise, I have to work with linux? Thanks, Balerion Replies: Re: SoCEDS and ARM DS Hi, Please refer the development kit page. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/fpga/development-kits/agilex/agf014.html It is mentioned that a one-year license for the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition design software is included with the purchase of the kit. Refer to Intel® FPGA Software Installation and Licensing for more information. Regarding another query, we don't have HWLIB/Baremetal support on Agilex-7. You need to use the open source linux i.e. https://www.rocketboards.org/foswiki/Documentation/BuildingBootloaderAgilex7 or VxWork from Windriver. Regards Tiwari
