vision/L2/tests/aie/Filter2d/16bit_aie_8bip_pl - HW Emulation hangs for vck190_base_2021.1

[aphrodite-jomaca]

Hello,

I try to run in hw_emu this test. My systems config: DEVICE = /xilinx_vck190_base_202110_1.xpfm SYSROOT = /sysroots/cortexa72-cortexa53-xilinx-linux Vitis Version: 2021.1

I get:

Is there something I'm missing?

How do you know that the HW emulation hangs? How long did you wait? HW emulation can be quite long.

You can try to add the -g option to the lauch_hw_emu.sh run to open the vivado simulator GUI this way you can observe the waveforms and see if there is any activity

You're right, it just took too long, couldnt see any progress so I thought there was something wrong with my configuration.

Thank you.
