Embedded platforms are available to
download from the
Vitis
Embedded Platforms download page for use in the Vitis unified software platform. For the Vitis embedded software development flow, you can
use embedded platforms with Linux, standalone/bare metal, or RTOS domains. To
support the Vitis application acceleration
development flow, embedded platforms must run Linux, with XRT integrated into the
rootfs. Some of the supported platforms are
listed below. A complete list can be found on the downloads page.
- xilinx_zcu102_base_202020_1
- Provides the platform definition, XRT drivers, and shared libraries for the ZCU102 Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC based platform.
- xilinx_zcu102_base_dfx_202020_1
- Provides the platform definition, XRT drivers, and shared libraries for the ZCU102 Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC based platform with dynamic function exchange.
- xilinx_zc702_base_202020_1
- Provides the platform definition, XRT drivers, and shared libraries for the ZC702 Zynq-7000 SoC based platform.
- xilinx_zc706_base_202020_1
- Provides the platform definition, XRT drivers, and shared libraries for the ZC706 Zynq®-7000 SoC based platform.
- xilinx_vck190_base_202020_1
- Provides the platform definition, XRT drivers, and shared libraries for the Versal based platform.
To install a platform, download the zip file and extract it
into /opt/xilinx/platforms, or extract it
into a separate location and add that location to the PLATFORM_REPO_PATHS environment variable.
Embedded platforms require a sysroot to cross-compile the host application for the Vitis application acceleration flow. Look for
the Common images for Embedded Vitis
platforms block on the downloads page, and download and extract
the common image for your platform architecture.
Running sdk.sh extracts
and installs the sysroot. This package also
provides a pre-compiled kernel image and rootfs.
You can add the sysroot to a
Makefile for your command line project, or add it to your application project in
the Vitis IDE. For example, in your
Makefile point <SYSROOT> to /<install_path>/aarch64-xilinx-linux,
which is generated when running sdk.sh.
