New ContributorReports on Intel OpenCL SDK for FPGA version 16.0
Hello,
I am facing a problem with reports on the older version of Intel OpenCL SDK for FPGA, I need to use 16.0 version because of HARP. But this version does give me much information about the hardware. From Intel FPGA SDK 16.1 and on, I have some useful reports about stalls, memory usage, latency, fmax, Initiation Interval (II), that report is important to optimize the design. I know that 16.0 does not generate that GUI report, but this information must be somewhere (I just don't know where), otherwise it would be almost impossible to improve my design by having only the II. I get the II from opt.rpt.xml file inside the compiled project.
How do you study your design generated for HARP? Is there any file that contains any useful information other than II and fmax?
Thanks, Carlos.
Look for the file named *kernel_name*.log. Back then, the compiler report was printed in that file. You can also run "aocl analyze-area *kernel_name*.aoco" to get a basic HTML file with kernel area usage information. You can find the programming guide for v16.0 here:
