Generating AFU for Arria 10 GX PAC

Hi,

I am trying to run minimal flow for the hello sample:

$ cd $OPAE_PLATFORM_ROOT/hw/samples/hello_afu
$ afu_synth_setup --source hw/rtl/filelist.txt build_synth
$ cd build_synth
$ $OPAE_PLATFORM_ROOT/bin/run.sh

from:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/documentation/bfr1522087299048.html#unm1523051477085

to generate an AFU.

Synthesis fails with the following error. I googled it, but nothing comes up.

Error (19877): Partial reconfiguration no longer supports synthesis revisions
Error: Flow failed:

Do you know what may be causing it? Thanks in advance.

  • Yes, thank you. Downgrading to 17.1 and installing the patches provided with the acceleration stack solved the error.

    Hi,

    From my understanding, you are using Quartus 18.0 or later version which is causing the issue. I would recommend you to use Quartus 17.1 Pro edition in order to compile your design.​
