PCIe 4.0 Example for Agilex 7 M-Series

Hello,

We purchased this Agilex 7 M-Series Dev Kit (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/fpga/development-kits/agilex/agm039.html) for a project, and we're having trouble locating the design example for PCIe mentioned in the documentation. We could, however, identify an example in the documentation of the I-Series board, but the pin mapping is not straightforward.

Could you please provide an example or documentation on configuring a basic design using the PCIe for the Agilex™ 7 FPGA M-Series Development Kit—HBM2e Edition (3x F-Tile & 1x R-Tile)? Also, is there any chance a BSP will be released for this dev kit?

Thanks,

Denisa

    Dear Wincent_Altera,

    Thank you very much for the pointers! After reviewing the documentation, I see that the provided example uses the FPGA as a root point. For my setup, I have a host server from which I want to connect to the FPGA board as an end point through PCIe. Is there an example of a design for this use case?

    The host is a Lenovo workstation featuring 2x Intel Xeon Gold 6416H 4 PCIe 5.0 slots. I purchased this MCIO-PCIe adapter with two MCIO SFF-TA-1016 8i cables to connect the FPGA board to the host. So far, I cannot list the FPGA PCIe device from the host using the lspci command.

    The host server has installed Rocky Linux 9.5 and Quartus 24.3. Is it necessary to run Ubuntu 20.04?

    Thanks,

    Denisa
