can it run on arm /aarch64/ armv8l?

[AndreV84]

it won't build on arm64

/opae-sdk-2.1.0-1/libraries/plugins/vfio/opae_vfio.c:664:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘__builtin_cpu_init’; did you mean ‘__builtin_irint’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  664 |  __builtin_cpu_init();
      |  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |  __builtin_irint

[tswhison]

Hello, it seems that __builtin_cpuinit() is not available on your platform. It seems we should add a preprocessor check for __arm_\, perhaps?

[AndreV84]

@tswhison how can it be added?

[tswhison]

Could you try this branch? #2616

@tswhison Error: unknown mnemonicvmovdqu64' -- vmovdqu64 (x21),%zmm0' seems like in https://github.com/google/or-tools/issues/820#issuecomment-414224256

[tswhison]

Ah yes. Thank you. I don't have an ARM test bench. We wouldn't be able to compile those instructions for non-x86 I think. I have updated the branch.

[AndreV84]

maybe we can somehow patch the code to pass ther err, e.g. as in https://github.com/google/snappy/blob/main/snappy-stubs-internal.h#L70 ?

[tswhison]

Right now, the code will return FPGA_NOT_SUPPORTED for the 512-bit calls on arm. Is that what you mean?

[AndreV84]

not exactly in my situation I was getting this error trying to build on aarch64 35%] Building CXX object binaries/fpgadiag/CMakeFiles/opae-c++-nlb.dir/src/nlb3.cpp.o /tmp/ccqQ69yz.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccqQ69yz.s:8616: Error: unknown mnemonicvmovdqu64' -- vmovdqu64 (x21),%zmm0' /tmp/ccqQ69yz.s:8616: Error: unknown mnemonicvmovdqu64' -- vmovdqu64 %zmm0,(x0)' make[2]: *** [libraries/plugins/vfio/CMakeFiles/opae-v.dir/build.make:90: libraries/plugins/vfio/CMakeFiles/opae-v.dir/opae_vfio.c.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:1773: libraries/plugins/vfio/CMakeFiles/opae-v.dir/all] Error 2'

[tswhison]

I thought I had fixed that one. Could you try updating your branch for #2616?

[AndreV84]

@tswhison Thank you for the update! Seems I can build it on my aarch64 device is there a simple test/ to try the board with it? https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/central-libraries/us/en/documents/intel-pac-with-arria-10-gx-product-brief.pdf

[tswhison]

In order to run something, you'll need a driver so that the bit image can be configured. Please check at linux-dfl for the availability of a driver.

[AndreV84]

could you extend what needs to be done after executing the step below, please? git clone https://github.com/OPAE/linux-dfl

[tswhison]

You'll need to check with the folks over at linux-dfl. I'm not sure whether an ARM driver exists, but they would know for certain.

[AndreV84]

@tswhison could you advise also how to build these on x86_64 that got installed intel dev stack environment but doesn't seem to have built sample binaries for opae-sdk

to build these guys?

usr/src/opae/samples$ ls
hello_events.c hello_fpga.c

[tswhison]

Please find build instructions for hello_fpga here: https://opae.github.io/0.13.0/docs/fpga_api/quick_start/readme.html#building-a-sample-application

[AndreV84]

found https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683633/1-2-1/running-the-hello-fpga-example.html thank you very much

[AndreV84]

@tswhison do IO have to install linux-dfl if I used to install the dev stack

after installing the dev stack

after sourcing

on 20.04 ubuntu the intel dev stack script won't run will opae-sdk/ driver build from source?

[tswhison]

Could you please raise this at linux-dfl? They should be able to help with driver issues.

Closing due to inactivity/age, and because the original question was answered. If you still require assistance, please re-open the issue.
