If you are using a supported version of CentOS or Ubuntu, you can just use the pre-compiled XRT package from here: https://www.xilinx.com/products/boards-and-kits/alveo/u50.html#gettingStarted

If you want to build XRT from source, you should follow the build instructions posted here: https://xilinx.github.io/XRT/master/html/build.html Specifically, you need Vitis installed and XILINX_VITIS set to the correct path for the build process to be able to build the firmware.

Thanks @zohourih . I am using the latest XRT release binary along with supported version of Ubuntu. But, I still get this error.

zohourih commented 4 years ago

Have you installed all the three packages in the "Deployment Target Platform" package? The firmware is installed by one of those.

Thanks, this issue is now resolved. Card now validates and is recognized by clinfo.
