The .xo file is a format of IP that can be used by the shell in the AMD Vitis™ accelerated flow. DPU IP files are released as .xo files. To generate the DPUCADF8H .xo files, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the DPUCADF8H-XO path.
    cd DPUCADF8H-XO/projects/ml_shell
  2. Configure the board, the platform, and the frequency in the Makefile.
  3. Run the following command.
    make gen_xo

Currently, the DPUCADF8H supports four platforms as shown in the following table. For more information on platforms, refer to Alveo Data Center Accelerator Card Platforms User Guide (UG1120).
