I think the problem is that you have installed Vivado Lab Edition. You can use it to program the FPGA, but the executable is vivado_lab and not vivado, so ESP doesn't find it. Please follow these steps to load the prebuilt image.
First source /home/aie/xilinx/tools/Xilinx/Vivado_Lab/2019.2/settings64.sh
Then copy the prebuilt image files into esp/socs/xilinx-vcu128-xcvu37p. The files you need are, prom.bin, linux.bin and top.bit.
Next, create the generic programming script for Vivado by copying the following into esp/socs/xilinx-vcu128-xcvu37p/vivado/program.tcl (make vivado/program.tcl) should generate the exact same script).
set fpga_host [lindex $argv 0]
set port [lindex $argv 1]
set part [lindex $argv 2]
set bit [lindex $argv 3]
open_hw
connect_hw_server -url $fpga_host:$port
puts "Connected to $fpga_host"
puts "Searching for $part..."
foreach cable [get_hw_targets ] {
open_hw_target $cable
set dev [get_hw_devices]
if [string match -nocase "$part*" $dev] {
puts "Programming $part ..."
set_property PROGRAM.FILE $bit $dev
program_hw_devices $dev
close_hw_target
disconnect_hw_server
close_hw
exit
}
close_hw_target
}
disconnect_hw_server
close_hw
error "ERROR: $part not found at host $fpga_host"Now, compile esplink with make esplink
Finally, create the following runme.sh script into esp/socs/xilinx-vcu128-xcvu37p/runme.sh where I've replaced vivado with vivado_lab.
#!/bin/bash
vivado_lab -mode batch -quiet -notrace -source vivado/program.tcl -tclargs localhost 3121 xcvu37p top.bit
sleep 5
./esplink --reset
./esplink --brom -i prom.bin
./esplink --dram -i linux.bin
./esplink --resetChange runme.sh into executable file with chmod +x runme.sh and run the script ./runme.sh
Please let us know if this works. Thank you!

Hello,
I saw on the website cache isn't implemented yet for Ariane. Is that still the case? Is there any branches that I could test out that uses cache?
Thank you!
