Why is the FPGA To HPS bridge not functional in a non-HPS EMIF hardware design in Agilex® 5 FPGA device in 25.3.1 release and earlier? - Why is the FPGA To HPS bridge not functional in a non-HPS EMIF hardware design in Agilex® 5 FPGA device in 25.3.1 release and earlier? Description Due to an incorrect configuration in the mpfe_config register in the System Manager, performed by the SDM FW, the FPGA-to-HPS transactions will fail to complete on the Agilex® 5 FPGA device in a hardware design that does not instantiate the HPS EMIF IP created with Quartus® Prime 25.3.1 and before. The problem resides in the incorrect value that the SDM FW assigns to the mpfe_config[f2soc_intfcsel] bit when the HPS EMIF is not instantiated. Under this scenario, it is expected that the f2soc_intfcsel field has a value of ‘1', but this is set to '0’ instead. Resolution To workaround this problem, you can set the mpfe_config[f2soc_intfcsel] bit to '1' in the FSBL. The following snippet shows an example of how to do it in U-Boot SPL: #define MPFE_CONFIG_F2SOC_INTFCSEL_BIT 0 void board_init_f(ulong dummy) { : setbits_le32(socfpga_get_sysmgr_addr() + SYSMGR_SOC64_MPFE_CONFIG, BIT(MPFE_CONFIG_F2SOC_INTFCSEL_BIT)); do_bridge_reset(1, RSTMGR_BRGMODRST_FPGA2SOC_MASK ); : } This needs to be done before the FPGA-to-HPS (F2H) bridge is released from reset. This problem will be fixed in a future release. Note : If your non-HPS EMIF design instantiates the Altera ACE5-Lite Cache Coherency Translator (CCT) and, after applying the above workaround, you observe that read transactions in the FPGA-to-HPS (F2H) bridge succeed, but after a write transaction, the system hangs, you may require an additional fix in the ACCT IP that will be released together with the mpfe_config[f2soc_intfcsel] configuration fix.
