Add compatibility for gatesgarth yocto #35

Closed ubfx closed 3 years ago

ubfx commented 3 years ago

Very useful for yocto builds

mhatle commented 3 years ago

2020.3 is not campatible with gatesgarth. It is only compatible w/ Zeus.

If you want gatesgarth please use the gatesgarth branch. If there is something missing from there that is in 2020.3, please let me know, it's easy for me to forward port.

Out of curiosity, since I'm still trying to understand the yocto project and everything involved: the gatesgarth branch uses the 2020.2 xsct and is compatible to gatesgarth (which is newer than zeus) the 2020.3 branch uses the 2020.3 xsct and is compatible to zeus

Would you be so kind to explain why this was chosen this way? I would think the newest tools would be compatible to the newest yocto release

I just tested the gatesgarth branch. With the xsct.2020.2 tools it uses, my device won't boot. Something seems to be wrong there. If I use the 2020.3 but add gatesgarth compatibility, everything works. Would it be possible to port the 2020.3 xsct tools to gatesgarth?

@ubfx Can you email me at mark.hatle@xilinx.com, I'd like to know more about your configuration.

The 2020.3 toolset is specific to versal platforms, which is why gatesgarth wasn't updated to 2020.3 when it was released. If I can understand your configuration I can formulate a strategy to make sure the right xsct can be selected.
