Programming the Image Core: Error - quartus_cvp is not recognized as an internal command.
I'm trying to connect the Intel Cyclone 10 GX device to PCIe. When I execute the command described in the Intel manual:
quartus_cvp --vid=<Vendor ID> --did=<Device ID> xxx.core.rbf
The terminal presents me the following error:
'quartus_cvp' is not recognized as an internal command
or external, an operable program or a batch file.
Hi,
After further checking, it looks like quartus_cvp is no longer supported. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Could you try to restart your PC again and try to performed "cp <filename>.core.rbf /dev/altera_cvp"? I suspect that the PCIe link might be in used which cause the issue.

Hi JohnT_Intel,
How should I perform Core Image update without installing Intel Quartus Prime ?

Okay john, it worked.
But now, I have another problem. The data visualization is done through / dev / Alter_cvp, right? but I can't open this file, how should I proceed?

Hi,
The altera_cvp is used for CvP usage only. You will need to write your own driver to send the data to the PCIe end point.

So, as I understand it from this tutorial https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/ug/ug_c10_cvp.pdf
the verification of cvp registers must be done through this file. How can I check the VSEC Registers of CvP status?

John,
I believe that the users of the FPGA Cyclone 10 GX card must have already started the projects with the use of PCI, would you know to indicate me a person, question in this forum or a tutorial in pdf of the alteration that guides the development of the PCIe endpoint?

Hi,
I would recommend you to look at the altera_cvp.c code to understand how we are using the it to access the VSEC register.

Ok, and about the other question, Can you recommend me some material?

Hi,
You may refer to https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/documentation/xtq1467072880606.html for the PCIe design example

John, thank you very much for your attention.
Tomorrow I going to study this material and any questions, get in touch.
